take me to The Nines

If you’re gonna take me, take me to The Nines. A Cape Town icon, The Nines is a rooftop restaurant and cocktail lounge that refuses to compromise where it counts. Hosted in a ninth-floor penthouse with 270-degree views, The Nines offers a rare perspective of upper Sea Point, magnified by floor-to-ceiling glass with vistas of the blue Atlantic, Lion’s head and unrivalled sunsets. Our menu showcases a repertoire of standouts that speak to provenance and produce-forward cooking. This is a confident, contemporary expression of the dishes and drinks we love. This is restaurant classics done right.

“One of the best rooftop restaurant venues in Cape Town, great food and desserts and a spectacular view of the city, noon or night, tiger prawn pasta, their line fish and desserts, the pineapple crush mocktail is a must.”
Shaklain Saidoo, South Africa

Chef's Specialities

historyMay 2027

Start light with chargrilled citrus and burrata drizzled in coriander lavender honey, or our aged beef tartare with tonnato and crispy shallots. Then go big with the Porcini Fillet on the Bone, finished with truffle butter and beef jus, or keep it coastal with grilled crayfish in sofrito cream and tagliatelle with mussels in a saffron broth. And for the ones who know: the Steak au Poivre Wagyu Burger.

We begin at provenance of ingredients & produce-forward cooking. Next, we look to the classics & ask, how can we give contemporary expression to the dishes & drinks we know & love? We recommend the scenic route, lingering – with equal enthusiasm – over not only beginnings, middles & endings but also aperitifs, sides, wines, breads, greens & after-dinner drinks. This is restaurant classics done right.

“Stunning space with a beautiful view and atmosphere. The service was excellent, cocktails were fantastic, and the food was fresh and well plated. Great menu and wine list with something for everyone. We really enjoyed the squid, salads, and oysters. Highly recommend for a high-end rooftop experience in Cape Town.”
