It was so good, I had to eat the plankton risotto for lunch again the next day. 10/10 for the Scallops & Plankton Risotto. Big thanks to Markus and the Somm Team for the amazing wines & service. If you're a foodie, you need to try this at least once in your life.

This celebrity dinner contained some of the same dishes as that led solely by Alain Roux, but the new dishes from Angel Leon were incredibly exciting and different, really pushing the boundaries and having that wow effect. The evening started with a glass of vintage Dom Perignon and a new canapé, Sea Lettuce Tart Shell with Plankton Emulsion, Finger Lime, Costal Herbs. The pre starter of Hot and Cold Scallop introduced a little theatre and was sensational, picture does not reflect the incredible flavours. The waiter brings a cold water like liquid, and pours it over the scallop covered in kelp. Before your eyes the liquid forms salt crystals across the surface growing like white lava which is now warm to the touch with enough heat to just cook the scallop. The dish is taken away and returned with an oyster emulsion and citrus sauce. Fabulous. The next starter was equally delicious. Kelp Root, Marinera Sauce, Baby Almonds. This was followed by the lobster (crayfish) as the previous night but this one seemed softer and more buttery. One of Angel‘s signature dishes followed: Plankton Risotto. Perfectly cooked and tasting of the sea, quite unlike anything I have eaten. The main course was the Beef fillet as the previous evening but they graciously substituted for me at short notice, and I received some dry aged Sea Bass. The raspberry soufflé dessert was the same as the previous evening. Once again all the wines were of high quality and delightfully and attentively served by Lucian. A very special evening.

An excellent experience. Usually seafood in South Africa is not an amazing experience but tonight was sublime. The taste combinations showed real delicacy. Normally oysters are better without accompaniment, but here they were enhanced by their sauces. And that remained true for the other dishes too. I'll definitely return.

Great eve at Amura last night. Went for the chef's menu and wine pairing. Really tasty range of flavours and textures across the dishes, thoughtfully curated. Wines excellent. Service very attentive.

We recently dinned at Amura during our stay in Capetown and this was hands down our best dining experience during our stay. If you like sea food, and fine dining then don’t sleep on this! We ordered off the menu rather than did the trust the chef as there was so much we wanted to try! And all of it did not disappoint. The service was exceptional, and the atmosphere was wonderful. If I was ever in Capetown again I would be going back more than once! We spent R3400 for 7 starters, 1 shared main,1 vegetable dish, 2 desserts, 3 drinks each and tip. We thought the price was extremely reasonable for the quality, the presentation, flavours and experience - particularly Meares to other much lesser dining experiences we did for the same or much higher price point.
