Your Italian Restaurant in Cape Town

The Cousins Trattoria was an idea created by Andrea, Simone and Luca who wanted to bring their knowledge and passion for food to Cape Town.

These cousins from Romagna, on the Adriatic coast of Italy, have lived in (and loved) Cape Town for many years, but felt there was not a place in the city where they could find the simple, authentic Italian food they had grown up with, in their homeland.

So joining their skills, they opened The Cousins Trattoria, where Andrea makes fresh pasta every morning, using only fresh and natural ingredients, just like Mama does! Bread and tiramisu are baked daily; great coffee and a passion for service makes this easy going place a heaven
for the senses.

Buon Appetito!!!

    We had a wonderful evening celebrating our friend’s milestone birthday. The food was absolutely delicious! Our server Melody was lovely, very knowledgeable about the food; she gave us excellent recommendations. She has a warm, friendly demeanor and is an asset to your business! All the other staff were also great, friendly and efficient. The excellent reputation of your restaurant is well-deserved! We’ll definitely be back!!
