Excellence at its best, I'll definitely recommend pigalle to anyone, the romantic setting and live jazz band was amazing, not too forget the food was beyond excellent and staff so professional and on point. My first time there it was surely an amazing evening.

The atmosphere is amazing. One feels at home from the moment you step in!! The band adds that awesomeness and the food is excellent!! Not forgetting the staff, top class �Love this place!!!
We found this place by accident. All regular diners and also working in the restaurant industry. It was 5 star; food, service and sophisticated music.
I dont know how i should start.. the restaurant manager is a true gentleman. He helped us through out our visit.. he accommodated us in a very friendly way.. helped us in our order..
Sea food is exceptional.. its a must try with no doubt..
Arguably the best restaurant I have experienced in Cape Town in the last 20-25 years. Keep on coming back. Great range to choose from the menu. Attentive but discreet service. Great live jazz. For the first-timer - finding the entrance to the parking (at the rear of the restaurant) may present a challenge

Had a lovely evening at Pigalle for my sisters birthday, I decided to go for the set 2 course meal. I chose the calamari started, it was delicious and for my main course I went with the teriyaki salmon. Food was delicious! Great atmosphere with the band playing. Only thing that was a bit of a let down was our waitress, she was a bit scatterbrained.
Love this restaurant. Serves consistently good food, the steak is amazing and the pear salad on point! Beautiful setting, Saturday’s are lovely as one can dance the night away to the sounds of a live band. Try it!

Was a gorgeous day in Cape Town, my calendar was not busy and thus my colleague and I decided to embrace this unusually free day with a midweek lunch at Pigalle.
Scanning through their seasonal special menu, we immediately knew that we wanted to share the seafood of platter.
Linefish, crayfish, mussels, calamari and prawns served with two sides either veg, rice or chips and 2 sauces ie garlic butter sauce and lemon butter sauce.
This was such a great platter! And so much food, we actually couldn’t finish it. The veg was surprisingly really good - with an Asian twist to it. The prawns and crayfish were huge! Both really very yummy.
I was however not a fan of the sauce, nor the sauce the mussels came in and cooked into the crayfish. Would’ve preferred the calamari fried, it was a tad chewy grilled.
But that complimentary chili sauce on the table is absolute life!!
The restaurant was unusually empty, but service was impeccable. This definitely looks like more of a classy but fun evening spot, with a full band on stage setup and dance floor to go with it. Will definitely return to get the full experience.
We went to Pigalle for my moms birthday dinner and we were absolutely blown away by the experience! The service, food and live band all added so much more to the evening.
The food arrived timelessly. I had the butternut soup as an appetizer, the queen prawns & savory rice as a main and the creme brûlée for desert. Everyone else thoroughly enjoyed their meals apart from my sister whose salmon was not cooked medium as she had ordered.
They went the extra mile bringing my mom a special pavlova and got the band to sing for her during the evening.
A wonderful evening! Worth every penny - will definitely be back soon.

If you really want to impress your date take him or her to Pigalle. (They have oysters which I believe is an aphrodisiac😬)This is one of the more sophisticated seafood restaurants in Cape Town.
From the moment you are seated you get the very best attention. It starts with immaculately dressed waiters flapping out a pristine white napkin and placing it on your lap. The great thing about the serving staff is that everyone helps you with a smile. There’s no “I’ll tell your waiter”. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable about the food. He explained the dishes in surprising detail and answered all of our questions without hesitation. That was impressive.
For me stepping into Pigalle is like stepping into a romantic movie. I love it. The ambience is great with stunning chandeliers, perfect lighting, well dressed tables, gorgeous artwork and live music.
The food was excellent. It was fresh, well seasoned and perfectly cooked. There’s a good variety of food on the menu and they serve red meat too (why anyone would want to forgo their delicious seafood for a steak is beyond me yet I heard that the steak which was about 800g and was succulent and tasty)
It’s a little more expensive than the average restaurant but this place is far above average so that’s ok. Our bill came to around R2600 for the six of us. I thought it was fair and well worth it.
Would I go again? Absolutely!!!
Went there for their winter special and it was divine! The service was top notch and they were very attentive. The food was delicious. I had the prawns which were so lovely. Very flavoursome and the chips came out crispy and not (and not drenched in oil). Had it with their Chardonnay which was also amazing. The ambiance was relaxed and the live jazz band added a kick to the atmosphere. I really recommend going!
Stunning resturant with great food. So much bigger than you expect. The live music and dance floor are great. The sound overall is a little too loud and makes conversation at dinner difficult. Great seafood prepared well. Prices are on the higher side but it is ideal for a fancy meal or to celebrate an occasion.
One of the most sought after restaurants in Cape Town. Lovely food, prepared to your liking, great atmosphere with live a band playing some awesome classics. Staff makes you feel welcome and at ease. An over great experience.
What an amazing evening spent at Pigalle Restaurant. It was my birthday and I couldn't have spent it at a better place
Great dinner and dance.
Enjoyed every minute of my time spent here. DJ Brandon Leigh from KFM made it even more memorable 🙌
A few months ago, I missed my chance to visit Pigalle, but now when I visited Cape Town, my best friend made reservations for us, and well, I wasn't disappointed.
The atmosphere, service, food, and ambiance are excellent. We opted for the 3 course meal menu instead of a la Carte menu. It was a great choice.
The live music is an added benefit, perfect for dress up and date nights.
What an amazing experience. Wow, I really loved my time there. The food was amazing and very friendly staff. Well done.
Wow, wow, wow, my kids took me there for my 60th birthday and I was quite impressed. The food, the service, the atmosphere was just amazing. They will definitely see me again. Loved every minute of it❤️
Stunning place, great atmosphere. The good was really good and so was the service.
Beautiful art works and great atmosphere and the live band and large dance floor very unique and special 😊
The best dine and dance place every. It's classy and simply the best. The food is so yummy... Love it, love it, love it. The band and DJ - just wow!!
Had our year end function here. Food and ambiance was great, but the jazz band was outstanding! The lead singer sang Sade like no one else I’ve heard. What an amazing voice! Highly recommended
Great place for any event or even date night...
Service and food is good. I attended a event there not sure how the vibe would be for couples night though....
