We were looking for a restaurant with live music and Pigalle was highly recommended. We were not disappointed. A beautiful establishment, professional and friendly staff and delicious food. We enjoyed a seafood platter and ordered dessert to take away. Everything tasted amazing. It being a weeknight, the restaurant was not full but I believe one gets a different experience over the weekend. Highly recommended spot.
I went there because there was a special event. I took my temperature at the entrance, and all the facilities were clean and beautiful. There were live instruments such as piano drums and a small stage. The meal was delicious and all the staff were kind. The manager listened to the customers request and solved it quickly. I was touched by the kind service. The bathroom was clean, too. A staff member stayed and provided hand sanitizer and hand cream. It sounds great for a party or event like a special birthday. The parking lot was also convenient and there were many captainial spaces as it was across from the entrance of the restaurant. Very satisfying.
Had a surprize birthday at the restaurant and was also my first time there. We were in a private area very cosy and had access to an outside area which was very convenient for the smokers in the group. A set menu was served and the waiting staff explained the menu and any extra charges so nothing was a surprize. The food was extremely tasty and well prepared and the service excellent. All in all a nice experience especially for a date night.
One of the best Restaurant experiences in Cape Town. Live music is awesome and such a great atmosphere. Decor is stunning and service excellent. Food absolutely fantastic, compliments to the chef. Thank you Pride for your great service as our waiter. An absolute must if you like to dress up for a night out in Cape Town.
This a good dining place for a date, friends or celebrations such as birthdays or anniversaries!! I celebrate one of my friends birthday here. There is a band that plays music, they even played and sang a happy birthday for my friend. The atmosphere is very good for such listed above events. The customer service is dope, I enjoyed interacting with them. The lights are not bright , which makes the place a bit dull... Its hard to find the place, especially if you are coming from Somerset Road.. Just remember to make a turn onto highfield Road heading to Somerset Square and park in there....
Thank you Pigalle for having us on the 19th. We enjoyed our food, the service, the live entertainment and ambience-everything was spectacular 👌 I would however make 2 recommendations: 1. Have a small appealing sanitizer bottle on each table. 2. Offer 1 drink on the house for birthday guest. I quite enjoyed the special touch of happy birthday on my dessert plate as well as birthday song dedicated to myself and others sharing birthday with me from/by the band-it really made me feel special, thank you.
Absolutely magnificent !! From the Beautiful entrance, to the timeless Retro decor, the magnificent Bar Area and the Draping Chandeliers, for a moment in time one felt absorbed in the 50s while at the same time spoilt in an unforgettable experience !!The Perfect Place for a Special Occasion as was displayed on the evening we chose to go, an engagement, a wedding with Bride in gown, several wedding anniversaries including our own 25th and several Birthdays.The food was from a different level and class.Our table had a various selection from Oysters with a lime & chilli dressing, peri peri chicken livers, calamari and cream of mussels starters. For main course, the dishes varied from Rib Eye steak, Teriyaki Line Fish, Lamb Shank and a Seafood Platter for 2. All were exceptional with flavour, tenderness, freshness and portion size and sides.An awesome, unforgettable evening out. You wont regret it.One snag, went out on a very warm evening and the venue lacks Aircon or even roof fans which IMO would fit in perfectly with the decor and ambiance.
Its a pleasant place. The atmosphere is very nice. The food was amazing, nothing was overdone or under cooked. I did not understand the plate which served the butternut soup though. The band set the perfect mood for a chilled weekday dinner. Perfect for dinning with family and friends, or if you just feel like a romantic evening out with your partner.
Oh what a Culinary feast! Well presented, delicious & wonderful service! Great, Friendly service. Lovely music & dancing played by a fun 2 man band! Thoroughly enjoyed my evening! Thank you for a very special experience!
Beautiful venue, good service and I cannot fault the food. We had a flawless experience
All the meals we ordered were delicious including the drinks. I tried out the springbok loin the waiter said to take medium which I did. Really happy with my choice, the mash was like a pistachio green colour amd really delicious. All the desserts we tried were nice too. They had a live band people were dancing. Really nice vibe/atmosphere. We didnt wait long for our food.
Excellent band, fantastic service, unbelievably tasty food. All round awesome vibe.
Its been a while since I had such a good experience at a restaurant. Service, food, vibe.. everything was just awesome.
Excellent service, fantastic staff and great food, the entire atmosphere was fun and exciting and management was kind and always helpful, definitely worth going back anytime and considering covid theyve done absolutely fantastic remaining both safe and creating a friendly and safe environment along side precautions.
I had the most delicious tasty lamb shank. I give Pigale 3 stars for the following reasons... The mash even though it looked and tasted great was cold. The chocolate fondant was not the best Ive had as the cake was not moist and there was hardly any liquid chocolate in the middle. The live entertainment was great BUT too loud and I could not hear my guests. So if youre wanting to dress up and go and dance and have good food without being able to converse clearly with your friends Pigale is a good place to go to.
Ambience was relaxed and classy. Food was exquisite. Band was amazing. Quality experience.
Amazing food, from starters to dessert and the service was very impressive too. The ambiance felt very romantic and whimsical. The lamb shank was so soft it literally fell off the bone and every single bite was better than the previous. The live performance and announcements for each celebration was well enjoyed too. Bravos to the chefs and waiters. Highly recommended!
Nice atmosphere, were greeted at the door, Warren the manager spoke to us as if we were old friends. Kenny our waiter was a pleasure to have been served by him. Food, music everything awesome
Starter was good ....main lamb shank was sad and dessert was ok
Beautiful venue awesome food great live music; best service ever
Unbeatable Fine Dining ! Pigalle has always been one of the finest restaurants in Cape Town . Absolutely delicious Seafood , prepared to perfection . If You love Shellfish , this is the restaurant that knows how to do it. Classy Decor , live band , dance floor and attentive staff , you can never go wrong by dining at Pigalle.
This is a fantastic restaurant for anyone looking for a great formal dining experience. Staff are friendly and very helpful. Manager is hands on and goes out of his way to ensure great service. The food is excellent. The mushroom ravioli, seafood platter and sole were fantastic. The live band and intimate lighting create a wonderful ambiance particular for couples looking for a romantic night out. I highly recommend that you eat here at least once.
Beautiful venue great food awesome live band, excellent service
10 stars 5 is not enough.. food, music service all amazing 👏 Warren makes its even better. Thanks Warren 😊
Such a beautiful restaurant. From the moment you step in you feel that warm welcome. From the decor to the food to the service we were given was very on point. This is the perfect place if you just want to spoil yourself a bit. There were various types of people there from business people to people getting engaged to people going on their first date to people just going out to listen to good music and eat good food. There is also a live band and a dance floor. I really enjoyed visiting this restaurant, especially the part of being able to dress up. Putting on my favorite dress and heels. Such a great experience
Celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary here and couldnt have chosen a better venue. Excellent service. Delicious food. Relaxed ambience. Our waiter gave the jazz band our names and they dedicated a song to us. Made the evening extra special. Only left because, well, they have to close you know. 😁 Highly recommended.
Delightful experience. Service was attentive and the food was phenomenal. The live music creates a wonderful experience without being invasive
Always a special & memorable dining experience. Superb service, ambience and food. Ideal for those memorable life milestones or for simply spoiling yourself & your loved one/s.
The seafood platter was great,so was the service.
Love love love it. Fantastic food and service. Classy joint. My favourite
I was disappointed at the entrance where the person who received me asked me to wait and handled the group of people who came after me. She even spoke to me with a higher tone asking me to specifically stand in a particular spot.I felt insulted as she preferred other guests over me although I was there before them. I knew my booking but she didn’t even ask.
Bad service , food was not on time, then it was wrong. The waiter did not want to accept his mistake and apologize. Spoke to the manager all he said was sorry. But it was a full house and they did host a wedding that evening. I enjoyed the vibe and atmosphere but think they should go try NV80 steaks as their steaks was dry and tough.
Very upmarket seafood restaurant. I had high expectations and was a little disappointed as my fish was overdone. Everything else was great though. I had the trinchado starter with the kingklip and calamari combo for mains. We also had prawns to share. Like I said, everything was excellent except the fist was overdone a little else I would have given it a 5 star rating. The service is also really good and the manager was very helpful and apologetic about the fish and gave us a free desert which was really cool! I will go back there.
Great parking. The setting and the ambiance is phenomenal. Fantastic live music. The la ale carte menu is to die for. Very very and joyful staff.I will always go and visit this restaurant.
One of the top restaurants in Cape Town. Dress code is smart, dont go with a t-shirt, takkies, caps, and under 14s. Minimum spend per person is R250.00, however this is quickly made up as starters are around R80.00, main meals are around R220, and deserts around R70.00. The food is good and served promptly and at the same time to all at the table, no awkward waiting for one persons food. Free parking within 20meters of the entrance however the side road which you need to take can be easily missed if you have never been there before. A good treat once in a while and be sure look out for week night specials.
A most delightful evening with excellent service, ambiance and food. Our waiter Ken was first class and paid attention to detail. I had the prawns in a chilli sauce as a starter with Salmon as a main and the most delish pavlova all highly recommended. Cant wait to go back again.
Good quality of food and attentive staff
Food and venue was very nice enjoyed the evening.
Loved the service and atmosphere in this place and the food is excellent 👌
Very sophisticated atmosphere, nice place to dine out , beautiful venue for Weddings, Matric Balls, etc. You dont need to do anything place is beautifully decorated. Food was Devine from starter to dessert. Price very reasonable 😃
Top class venue, service and meals with very good entertainment. A must place to eat out on special occasions...
Food is great but has a lot of room for improvement. The fish comes with too much pea purée.
Very nice atmosphere, good food too.
Great seafood. Our waiters where friendly and helpful. There was a live music performance as well. Hard to find this restaurant but it was worth the visit!
Exceeded expectations, on all levels, partner had seafood, I had beef, both were great, friendly staff, all round 5 stars
Food was good. Was a bit concerned that majority of people were dancing without masks. Did not venture to the dance floor....no social distancing and no masks mandated on dance floor
My seafood starter and main meal was fresh & flavorful. Lovely place. Attention to detail. Good ambiance with the 2 musicians and singer. Downside.. I was sitting at table 22. & waitrons were always bumping my chair & my maiva pudding portion was tiny.
Stylish evening out. Dress up. Magnificent restaurant. Exquisite food. Dine and wine the night away the local live band. Excellent service and worth every cent. This would be one of the go too place in Cape Town.The decor and ambiance are enigmatic. Cape Town at its best.
Always a special evening. Love the vib and food and they serve my favourite cocktail ...Brandy Alexander
Awesome band singing great songs, the food was scrumptious and the waiters was patient, kind and friendly. Overall I enjoyed the evening.
Great food, great vibe, however better ventilation needed, waiters are a bit amateur for such a classy place, but otherwise great place...
Romantic setting but slightly overratedPigalle provides a fine dining experience with live music, mostly jazz artists, and an overall romantic ambience.The food is average, especially for the hype the restaurant receives. The service is great and meets expectation.Expect to struggle to find parking on busy evenings.
Had a great time. The service was excellent and the seafood platter was amazing!Love the music the band was great too😍
Absolutely Divine food! Bands great! Food is awesome!! The Pigalle platter is a must try. Definitely going back!Visited a second time and was as awesome as the first time.
ALWAYS great food, food n music. This place has a live band n singer and also a dance floor. Great ambiance n has enough parking space. I had the lamb shank n hubby had the prime rib. I also love their desserts, my favs are the malva pudding with anglaise n the choc lava cake
Well where do I start.The seafood was the best ever!!! The waitresses was always there when you need them. Beautiful inside and I was rocking it on the dance floor!! My favourite place in Capetown!
Just go. You will love it 🤗
Food and service is excellent .Live band extra bonus
Always a 🏆 winner.Mothers Day celebration 2021 at Pigalles in Green Point was the best.The food is fresh, tasty and well presented. The waiters are friendly and make sure that everybodys food arrives at the same time.I do not know where else in Cape Town you can enjoy good food paired with live good music such as the Pigalles repertoire.The Covid_19 protocols are strictly applied and they have a generator on standby should Eskoms prince of darkness decide to visit, unexpectedly.
Celebrated my birthday here with friends and I was really impressed. The food was prepared excellently, staff were accomodating, the live band was lovely. Classy and enjoyable.
Love their menuTasty food and great entertainment
Had an absolutely amazing time. The service was world class and food was spectacular
One of the place to be in Cape town.Excellent food. The seared scallops are amazing. Really.All seafood is fantastic, and the springbok fillet steak is just perfectService is so great.Atmosphere like a piano bar. My way............Would come back with greatest pleasure.5 star rating for the place during a holiday. Dash restaurant is more gastronomic, as an example
The best sea food restaurant in Cape Town for almost 20 years. The live music is just the cherry on the top. 9h yeah, you can dance too, but remember for the dress code: smart casual. Its THE place, not just a place.
Good come back...steak a bit tough. All other prawns, fish and side items...100%!!!Major concern was social distancing... not good... however difficult, will always be a headache but dangerous!
Delicious food with a fantastic service. An amazing variety of the finest wines.
Nice ambient, nice music with nice food ....
Pigalle never disappoints.My Norwegian salmon was absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked!I do miss the swing music tracks but the band was great!
We had such a great experience there.The host, the waiter, the band - everything was great!
Upon arrival we were welcomed with smiley faces. The watrons were covid safety cautious and very helpful. Loved the atmosphere, the food and the band.
Dinner and a show. A wonderful way to spend a Friday night. The calamari starter was divine. The sirloin was cooked well but the meat itself was average at best and the red wine glasses were not up to standard. Other than that, the band was exceptional and made this a fun night out.
