Located on Bree Street, The Wiggle Room is a new 12-seater chef’s counter dining experience where fine dining loosens its tie and settles into something far more exciting. Chef Ismail Amos, AKA Fish, cooks to the rhythm of his own music playlist – no set menu, no repetition, just music, good food and serious skill. The full experience is R2850 per person which includes your pairing. Expect a 7–8-course dinner that changes weekly, where each dish flows naturally into the next. Alongside him, Lester – virtuoso mixologist and sommelier – crafts bespoke cocktails and wine pairings for each course. This is fine dining, but with some wiggle room.

What guests have to say:
“The food was amazing and watching a kind of good theatre in my opinion is extremely exciting. The meal was extremely creative and it was such great fun. Highly enjoyable evening. Fine dining with a difference.”
“What an experience – we had a wonderful evening. The food was incredible, the chefs are true gems and absolutely talented. The pairing was amazing with wine but also cocktails in between! Service was impeccable. Don’t miss this one!”

    An incredible experience but just too expensive and no clarity on cost until the end when it's too late. We enjoyed it but will never return on our own cost. The most we have ever spent in a restaurant with the least of wine we have had.

    This was quite a unique experience. The food is good, the cocktails all on the sweet side and didn't pair ver well with the food. It's very expensive for what you're getting.

    What an experience! From start to finish just completely blown away. My tastebuds were dancing all evening long. Every dish was a surprise paired with a delicious drink, be it a cocktail or a carefully curated local wine. The chefs were so kind and knowledgable - very laid back but with a very high professional standard at the same time. Cannot highly recommend this enough. Just all and all a once in a blue moon experience. Go and enjoy! Thank you Wiggle Team - will 100

    Exceptional experience. Highly recommend it. If you want high class food in a very viby, non traditional setting, this place is for you.
