Salsify at The Roundhouse: Fine-Dining by Luke Dale Roberts + Co Wine and dine by the sea.

Located in a leafy pocket of Camps Bay, Salsify at The Roundhouse offers exquisite views of the Atlantic Ocean and is one of Cape Town’s finest fine-dining restaurants. Co-owned by superstar chef Luke Dale Roberts and Ryan Cole, who served as Luke’s head chef at The Test Kitchen for three years, the restaurant draws inspiration from its name (a root vegetable with a unique flavor). Ryan and his team have created a series of perfectly restrained and utterly compelling dishes that push the boundaries of flavor and technique.

Sustainability you can taste!

The restaurant’s nose-to-tail, seasonally driven approach ensures that everything on the menu is sustainably sourced and of the highest quality. Fish features prominently, which is appropriate given the restaurant’s ocean-facing setting. The pescatarian bent comes from Ryan’s background, with his father and brother both being career fishermen.

A magnificent mix of edge and sumptuousness at Salsify at The Roundhouse

The interior of the restaurant is a magnificent mix of edge and sumptuousness, which honors and challenges the building’s history. The restaurant features avant-garde graffiti by international street artist Louis de Villiers (aka Skull Boy), a 1.3m show-stopping bronze sculpture of Lady Salsify by Otto du Plessis, faded vintage rugs on original oak floors, a leather-covered wall, modern upholstered chairs in a mix of patterned velvets, and fabrics that marry old and new exquisitely.

Friendly and professional staff

The staff of Salsify is friendly, professional, and emotionally intelligent. The General Manager, Markus Fiedler, who was previously from The Test Kitchen, is the consummate host. The restaurant is child-accessible; however, it is not child-friendly.
