The Red Room

Excellent. Just what I have come to expect from Chefs Warehouse. The Red Room setting is luxury, lighting is perfect, seating comfortable, tables perfectly space to allow privacy. Service is on point, professional, 100% customer focused and friendly. We had the Chef's menu, everything was very good to excellent. Highlights were the Seared Tuna, Trout Crudo and Grilled Line Fish. Dishes are well presented, cooked to perfection and delicious. Excellent wine list and drinks menu. Very sophisticated but still comfortable and welcoming. Well worth the cost and an absolute must when in Cape Town.

I had such a wonderful experience at The Red Room in Cape Town! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. A special mention goes to Ren, our waiter, who was absolutely fantastic – attentive, friendly, and full of great recommendations that made the evening even more enjoyable. The cocktails are out of this world – I tried several throughout the evening, and each one was beautifully balanced, creative, and delicious. Definitely a highlight of the night! As someone who appreciates plant-based dining, I was thrilled to see that the vegan options on the menu are outstanding. They’re not just an afterthought, but truly flavorful and thoughtfully crafted dishes that can stand on their own. All in all, The Red Room delivered an unforgettable dining experience, and I can’t wait to return. Highly recommended!

27 years ago I had a friend from China who myself and a bunch of friends stayed with for the weekend. On the second night his gran had arrived in South Africa for the first time and decided to cook for everyone. It was the first time that I had ever eaten a Won Ton and it was probably the best thing I'd ever tasted. I was obsessed from that day onwards but for 27 years never tasted that same authenticity than what I did that day, until the Red Room! The chicken wontons were beyond superb and brought me back to that moment all those years ago. But that was just one of the many highlights on their menu. Everything we tasted was incredible and I highly recommend this place to anyone who's looking for excellent food, service and an authentic experience. And the cocktails are pretty damn good too!! We will definitely be back!!

The food was delicious & fresh; beautifully prepared with good quality ingredients. We don't eat meat or dairy (but do eat seafood) and had a great meal. The staff are very attentive & friendly and service is smooth. The space itself is beautifully decorated and spacious. Special mention to the very delicious cocktails, too!

Situated in the Mount Nelson Hotel There's many mixed reviews concerning this restaurant, however, it's been on my list to try for a while now as I thoroughly enjoy Asian cuisine, and I was convinced that we would have a fantastic dining experience as I wouldn't expect anything less coming from the Chefs Warehouse group. We had booked an early dinner, mid week, straight after work. There were only two other couples when we arrived, but by 9 pm the restaurant was about half full. The space is really exotic! Great ambiance and decor, and the service was impeccable! Taras is the manager there (he used to work at The Bailey), and his knowledge about wines and the cuisine is highly commendable! I discovered a new white wine, which I have added to my list of all-time favorites! We chose to order from the a la carte menu instead of the set menu. The food was so beautifully presented and incredibly tasty. Due to my sweet tooth, I'd probably say dessert was my favorite dish - but bar that, I'd highly recommend the Prawn toast and Duck Pancake. Will definitely be back to try the other options.

If you go to Red Room by Chefs Warehouse you will get Chefs Warehouse! Tapas style menu in 3-4 courses with a vegetarian option, which is almost better than the „normal“ menu. Very good wine menu, staff with attention to detail and a really cool room in the basement of Mount Nelson Hotel. Pricy but worth every single Rand!

Enjoyed a delightful set menu at this restaurant. The host and waiters were courteous and provided helpful information about the meals. Generous portions of tasty food, and the drinks arrived promptly. While the atmosphere wasn't at its peak, it's understandable for an early week visit. Overall, a satisfying dining experience.

A very nice hidden place in The Mount Nelson Hotel Sober elegance lightning and interior. Good food interesting Asian meny The waiters are confused and feel uninterested in their work and guests. Host and hostess give great service and have a good knowledge. The somalier had a good knowledge!
