“Always an absolute delight”

The Greek Fisherman
Ranked #58 of 1 194 Restaurants in Cape Town Central
Certificate of Excellence
Description: Here at the greek fisherman, we are proud of our roots, so expect traditional greek and mediterranean dishes. But, we also believe in moving with the times, so we've added a modern twist to our otherwise classic menu. Our cuisine includes greek & seafood specialities and we are famous for our greek meze, our souvla (spit roast) and our stunning lamb in the oven. Choose from over 20 meze, starters and tapas! Established in 1992, the greek fisherman is one of the original restaurants in the v&a waterfront and is still owned by the same owners as when the victoria wharf, waterfront opened in 1992. Take a seat and get a glorious view of table mountain while you enjoy delicious seafood and meats grilled over open charcoals.

I took my parents to the Greek Fisherman on Mothers Day. The idea was to have Starters, mains and desserts.. Their Mezze options are incredible! Such a large variety to choose from. We ordered several different starters... Of course we were stuffed after these and didnt have space for mains this time around. (But I've had the lamb in the oven before and can highly recommend this). Everything on their menu is fresh, tasty and always leaving you wanting more. Thank you GF, we will be back soon.

The outside area is fabulously festive whilst the inside is a bit bare and lacking in atmosphere. Food was delicious. Waiter was very pleasant & efficient.

Lovely food. We had a seafood Platter for 2 and it came to R550, but it was worth it. Shame they didn't have crabs (hence 4 star). But the food and service were good.

We had a superb dinner at The Greek Fisherman last evening. The weather was perfect and thus a pleasure to sit in the large outdoor patio. The courtyard became completely full, but the service was excellent. My Moussaka was the best I've ever had, and Susan's fish soup was delicious. Truly an outstanding restaurant experience.
