One of my favs. Tx Haiku Tapas for making our time so special.... see u soon
Amazing Sushi, best I have ever had, lovely waiter. Definitely recommend.
What a great place!
Anniversary treat where we had prawn toast, delicious and ordered the spicy szechan chicken which was really spicy but good with some egg fried rice.
Dessert was the fried noodles with mango ice cream. Delicious.
All in all what a great place with great selection and great service. There is too much to choose from so we will definitely be back.
Yonela was one amazing server! He ensured we have the most authentic and delicious meal in Cape town. The food was amazing especially the 'Fish in black bean' and the ' lamb dumplings in chilly oil'. A must must must have in Cape town! 😁☺
Food was great.. I mean everything.. from the calamari to the sizzling veg, boa and prawn toast.. looking forward to going again and trying a few more dishes 🙌🏻
Very friendly staff, best dim sum I have ever had. Beautiful decoration mixed with good music and warm atmosphere. Loved it and hope to get back soon!
What a wonderful restaurant! The ambience is dark and sensual hi lighting the food beautifully. The service is amazing and the food expertly crafted. The food is well priced and aesthetically pleasing. A taste sensation, well worth it!
This establishment is somewhat unique in that it has 4 kitchens all preparing different regional Asian fare labeled as "tapas". The food was very good and the server was very attentive (perhaps over attentive as she recommended so many options to the point of near confusion). The space is dimly lit and Feels very intimate for the large size of the dining room area. The menu has a broad selection of east and Southeast Asian dishes prepared as shares and some mains. The price was somewhat high but the quality was good.
My favorite restaurant in Cape Town without a doubt and it’s halal friendly so there’s many options to choose from.This establishment serves Asian cuisine and I absolutely love their dishes, the Thai green curry with coconut rice is superb as well as their prawn yunan dish.I’ve also enjoyed their prawn popcorn and dim sum on another occasion.The service is excellent and the ambience is amazing..great spot for dinner!
Haiku is expensive, but worth it. The service was fantastic. We tried a variety of dishes, but my favourite was the spicy lamb potstickers, peking duck (I don't usually like duck, but this was served with a yummy dipping sauce and mini pancakes) and the pad thai with prawn (this is served with chilli and nuts on the side and was delish!). I would definitely recommend this restaurant to those who enjoy asian-style cuisine.
Insanely expensive but so worth it. Top notch food and wine with service that keeps your meal ticking over. We arrived at a busy time but that didn’t matter. Food came quickly and was properly flavoured. Dig deep but dig often. We had meals there twice in a few days. Yum.
Food is great. Service makes it even better. Great selection of Japanese and Chinese classical food. We had a rainbow roll, har gow, hot pot lamb and of course edamame. Our server Ivan made sure everything was perfect. If we lived here this would be a go to restaurant for sure.
The tuna tacos omg they were so good! Sushi is good too and I have yet to try the Chinese cuisine. But the tapas and atmosphere is great for date night or corporate functions. Very nice dark muted Japanese look and feel to the place. Definitely one of my favorites in Cape Town.

Visited this restaurant on a Saturday at 6.30pm. I did reserve a table but it was not busy at this time.
Drinks: Ordered 2 espresso martinis and 2 Awara Elixir cocktails which were both tasty!!
Food:
Steamed dim sum - Chicken Siu mai and beef Xiao long Bao. These were okay where the beef Xiao long Bao did not have that oozing sauce that comes out when you bite into it.
Fried Dim Sum - Prawn Avo Tempura with spicy mayonnaise. This was delicious! Be careful as it was piping hot!
Mains: Thai Penang Rib eye and Rendang Duck with 2 bowls of steamed rice.
Dessert: Cheese Cake and 2 scoops of ice cream (Mango and Vanilla with choc chips)
Total price: around 1850 Rand where we paid 2100 with tip.
Overall experience: staff were very attentive, great ambience where the lights did flicker at a certain time but staff came over to explain why it did that due to the generators and to save energy.
Wasn’t too keen on the steam dim sum as much (probably cos I’m being biased) but would definitely visit again cos of the fantastic experience we had!
The most amazing evening with the most delicious food. The service is next level and the attention to detail from the staff is excellent!
Ate here for the first time and was blown away. We ordered sushi and sashimi which was good but the highlight was the mains. The crisoy fried broccoli on salad and crisoy fried veg was nothing like we had ever eaten before. It was AMAZING. Then came the delicious stir fried rice and delicious crispy spicy lamb with veg. The combo was so delicious that we ate ourselves into a stupor. Wow. We have eaten all over the world and very seldom get sooo impressed. Haiku, you have outdone yourself. 🙌🏽👏🏽👍🏽🙏
Delicious, delicious, delicious. If you visit be sure you have their signature dish, Peking Duck. It is worth every 5 star review. So much flavour in the sauces. This ia our second visit, we went back for the Cheesecake is the most fantastic one ever tried. Service was top notch.
Loved it. The quality of food was wonderful and fresh, every bite was tasty and well presented. Service was very good and attentive, we enjoyed the ambiance which is romantic and comfortable lighting. We ordered tapas style to try as much as we can and we’re were pleasantly surprised every time. Food kept coming and it was wonderful.
Our waiter "Washington" was just splendid. He could share ample information on meals, the ingredients and how it's prepared.
The Hors d'oeuvres was also a unique experience, never quite experienced those flavours before.
Great start to what followed - bbq duck springroll, Spicy Lamb Pot Sticker, Chilli Chicken (With schezwan peppercorns, hot.)
So deliiiish
What a taste explosion. Beautifully presented food, unique taste. I loved every bit and the waitress was extremely knowledgeable.
Fantastic evening. I mean, to try fault, this gem of a restaurant would be impossible! Every time I go back, I have such great memories that keep me going back. Thank you to the staff from management, kitchen, and the amazing waitrons who bring joy to the table with such etiquette and love. #haiku .... 10/10 🌟 MUST HAVE: TUNA TACO 🌮 😋
What a fantastic experience. Arriving late after an underwhel experience in the Waterfront. We were accommodated without rush., super friendly and warm service. The atmosphere is outstanding, cozy, warm, jazzy and just an overall warm feeling. Fantastic food, sizzling hot with impressive cocktails. Our new little, hidden gem. You can feel the vibe, and every patron looked happy. Thanks guys 💖❤️
