“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.

    We went for my wife’s birthday dinner. It was our first time there so we didn’t know what to expect. The parking was full, so I dropped off my wife to walk in while I look for parking. I suggest if the Marble can suggest to all visitors especially first timers to rather recommend people using ehailing services so that it doesn’t cause any inconvenience especially if one isn’t familiar with the area like we were not. The actual restaurant is a lot bigger than I imagined which is great surprise . The food and service is excellent. As it is an impressive establishment just understand that you will pay for good food and good service. Overall it was great experience and I will recommend especially on occasion.

    Marble restaurant is always a stellar choice for a celebratory evening dinner. The food was great and so was the service. Only down side was my guests kept complaining about how uncomfortable the seating was. The low rising back support of the chairs appears to be a recurring problem which I also noticed. Perhaps something to consider. Otherwise, nothing much else to complain about.
