Intended to boast seating capacity of 300 people, the restaurant’s layout will ensure that every guest can enjoy the stunning views while indulging in Marble’s open-flame cooked creations, fine wine and cocktails.
“We're excited to welcome guests to Marble Cape Town and to share our passion for great food, great views and great company,” adds Higgs. “We look forward to inviting diners to join us on this culinary journey as we raise the anchor and set sail for a new era of dining excellence in Cape Town.”
Though the opening of the establishment was first teased in 2022, the team have so far been tight lipped on what to expect from their Mother City outpost, which is set to open its doors later in 2024.
