Black Marlin Seafood

Very, very good seafood. Had a simple hake and chips and you can taste that it is fresh. Just different to the run-of-the-mill outlets. The venue lies specularly on the waters edge and on a clear, sunny day this should be your lunch stop of choice. <br/ <br/ The building does however need a serious revamp!

Never been here and was glad to have tried out something different for seafood other than the usual waterfront restaurants! We had starters which were the sardines, mussels and garlic snails-all were delicious! I then had the sirloin steak, medium rare, it was slightly over but still tasty! And the butternut and creamed spinach were good too! Others had the stuffed chicken and angel fish, which both looked yummy! There was a half an hour delay between starters and mains which was a bit slow! Lastly we had ice cream and berries and then the trio of desserts which was super decadent! The setting was beautiful, right by the beach and there was a cosy fire and atmosphere!

The view is spectacular, would be good to go have a cocktail and just drink in the scenery. Most tables are reserved for tours, so service can get a little slow with all the people there. Food was good but nothing mind blowing, which was sad considering the price.

Hidden gem is what comes to my mind when I recall my experience of Black Marlin! This place was surprisingly good. We were returning to Cape Town on our way back from Cape of Good Hope on 5th Dec when we decided to stop over for some quick snacks. Turned out that we actually spent a couple of hours and had an entire meal over here.The place offers splendid view of the sea. Loved their decor. Service was a bit slow but the food made up for the delay. We tried their veg spring rolls and fish platter, both were very nice.I definitely recommend visiting this place! :

Stopped here for lunch during our scenic drive. Beautiful view! Waiter was very attentive took our drink order after we settled in. We enjoyed the cajun calamari with chips salad, as well as the mussels (very generous main portions). Only downside is that it was very quiet with no music at all, lacking that ambience.
