“Marble is a celebration of quintessential South African fare. It embodies South Africans love of cooking with fire, a quality that makes our food culture different from the rest of the world” David Higgs.

Situated in Keyes Art Mile, the growing art and food hub of Rosebank, Marble Restaurant boasts a grand wood-fired grill imported from Grill Works in Michigan as the focal point of the restaurant. The concept combines the open-fire trend, seen internationally, with an added pinch of true South African flair.
We have long been fascinated by what makes South African cuisine unique, and we believe its down to being meat and flame enthusiasts. It is the timeworn ritual of cooking on wood fires and gathering with friends, the shared experience in the preparation. However, it is not just meat which 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.

Gourmet Guide™ Description

Marble offers a sleek, modern setting with stunning, expansive views of Johannesburg’s cityscape, day or night, adding a visual treat to the culinary experience. Chef David Higgs has garnered a huge following, with a core of regulars who give this restaurant loud and
worthy acclaim.

The space is sophisticated yet warm, with a unique live-fire grill as its centrepiece, setting the tone for a vibrant yet intimate dining experience. Celebrated for its commitment to cooking with fire, Marble pays homage to South Africa’s love for braai culture. The menu features a diverse range of dishes beyond steak, including seafood, poultry, and captivating vegetable options cooked over coals. The rib-eye steak at Marble is a standout, offering a rich and flavourful experience. Special care is taken to cook it to perfection with its deep flavours enhanced by the wood-fire grill method for which Marble has become renowned.

Dining at Marble is more than just about the food – it’s a richly layered experience that resonates with those wanting a business lunch, romantic date, or simply good food. Guests can expect top-notch service from pre-dinner cocktails to departure, with attention to detail
coordinated by professional waitrons.

    Food - Kudu starter was difficult to find the meat. Ribeye was very disappointing; Game was under cooked but the pulled shoulder on the pastry was delicious. Cheesecake was stunning. Blood Orange was fabulous. Value was extremely expensive - excessive There was no ambience. Location - parking is a huge issue.

    The bread and pumpkin was delicious as well as the margarita.The food was cold and honestly tasteless to say the least. I had the sirloin and it wasn't medium it was almost cooked right through which made me afraid to send it back. The place is lovely with amazing views but would I return just for the view probably not.

    We have now eaten at your Johannesburg and Cape Town location. The food and service at both locations are excellent. The Johannesburg location had a wonderful view. The location was easy to reach. We had a party of 8, and the service was timely and excellent. The food was amazing. We were very pleased with our entire experience at Marble.
