The energy of Cape Town’s most iconic eatery has arrived in the heart of Melrose. Located within the lush, "afro-chic" gardens of The Peech Hotel, The Pot Luck Club Joburg offers a sensory experience that balances edgy elegance with world-class flair.

Under the creative direction of Luke Dale Roberts and group exec chef Jason Kosmas, head chef Ebie du Toit and restaurant manager Thabiso Mutobaya lead day-to-day operations. Together, our team delivers a menu of Asian-inspired small plates designed for sharing. From the "must-try" Linefish Taco 2.0 with smoky chipotle to the rich Smoked Beef Sirloin with black pepper and truffle café au lait, every dish fuses global inspiration with premium local ingredients.

Matching the excellence of the kitchen is our incredible service team. Known for their intuitive hospitality and deep knowledge of the menu, they ensure every guest feels like a regular. Whether you’re here for the "Best Hotel Restaurant 2026" award-winning menu or the whimsical, custom-designed interiors, expect a memorable dining experience that is as warm and professional as it is refined.

    We, a family of 4, all had the tasting menu - which was well balanced and absolutely delicious from start to finish. Stand out courses - fish Taco, fillet of beef and truffle, peanut butter bomb. We also had the wine flight - which complimented our meal beautifully. We would highly recommend this restaurant, for its gastronomy and passionate, knowledgeable and friendly service.

    What an exceptional dining experience from the very first moment to the last! The staff are excellent - they work as a team, which means every single person knows every dish, every wine pairing and can speak confidently about it. The food was well thought-out, beautifully prepared without being overdone. The wine pairing was truly exceptional and brought out every single note of the food. A truly wonderful experience that everyone who enjoys delicious food served by people who really care in a beautiful space, should experience at least once.

HI Mieks We're absolutely delighted that every part of your experience hit the mark—from the warm welcome to the final bite and sip. Our team works incredibly hard to know every dish, every wine, and every story behind them, so it's especially rewarding to hear that their passion and teamwork shone through. We're thrilled you enjoyed the menu and that the wine pairing elevated each course exactly as intended. Creating experiences where great food, exceptional wine, and genuine hospitality come together is what Pot Luck Club is all about. Thank you for recommending us so wholeheartedly. We can't wait to welcome you back for another evening of bold flavours, great conversation, and a few more delicious surprises. Until then, we'll keep your seat warm! PLC Team
