A passionate restaurant on Cape Town’s Waterfront: Our Story

Marble was initially founded by Gary Kyriacou and David Higgs at the Keyes Art Mile in Rosebank, Johannesburg. Now, Marble Restaurant Cape Town brings the zeal for fire-driven cuisine and local flavours to the Mother City in the Waterfront.

Created to celebrate cooking with fire in all its glory and simplicity, Marble offers flame-inspired cuisine that champions South African culture and flavours. Boasting a grand wood-fired grill imported from Grill Works in Michigan at its heart, Marble is a celebration of the vibrant flavours, colours, and textures brought about with flame cooking.

The concept combines the open-fire trend, seen internationally, with a pinch of true South African flair. We have long been fascinated by what makes South African cuisine unique, and we believe it’s down to being meat and flame enthusiasts. It is the time-worn ritual of cooking on wood fires and gathering with friends, the shared experience in the preparation. And it is not just meat that we celebrate in this way, we boast an array of fresh ingredients all cooked on our perfectly prepared coals including fish, poultry, vegetables and breads.

    Yesterday I had the absolute pleasure of being invited to Marble Cape Town for their Seven Colours Sunday Brunch, and what an incredible experience it was! From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome. The atmosphere was vibrant yet relaxed, the restaurant is beautifully designed, and everything about the afternoon felt special. The food was simply outstanding. Every course was beautifully presented and full of flavour. From the arrival bite of caviar on a freshly baked crumpet to the oysters, duck, shakshuka, perfectly cooked sirloin, baby chicken, and an incredible selection of sides, every dish was executed flawlessly. By the time dessert arrived, I was convinced I couldn't eat another bite—but the Marble Malva Pudding was too good to resist! The Seven Colours Sunday Brunch is an experience in itself. The portions are incredibly generous, the quality of the ingredients shines through in every course, and you certainly won't leave hungry. A special thank you to our waiter, Sizo (I hope I've spelt your name correctly). Your service was exceptional—friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and professional. You made sure everything ran seamlessly without ever being intrusive, and your hospitality truly elevated our afternoon. Thank you to the entire Marble team for an unforgettable experience, especially Nathalie and Bianca for your warm hospitality and making us feel so welcome. If you're looking for one of the best Sunday lunch experiences in Cape Town, the Seven Colours Sunday Brunch is an absolute must. Incredible food, exceptional service, and an atmosphere that keeps you wanting to stay just a little longer. We'll definitely be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Byron

    Spetacular food and ambience. My only comment is about service. When asking for red and sparkling wine recommendations, we were offered the most expensive size labels of both, and took the recommendation as offered without paying attention to price. The wines ended adding to 50% of the check. Otherwise, perfect. Food taste, presentation, etc.
