The best oysters i've had in Cape Town! The restaurant is in a food hall and the vibes are very cozy. The menu is pretty small which I like. I was a big fan of the oyster shot. Everything is very reasonably priced and tastes so good! We ordered a total of 6 oysters and unfortunately found shells in at least 3 of them but I still found them to be fresh and delicious enough that it did not take away from my experience.

Love this oyster and bubbles bar. Service is great, oysters and mussels are some of the best I’ve had. And mojo is always a vibe!

The Mussel Monger & Oyster Bar touts itself as the finest premium oysters and mussels in South Africa. Honestly, I wouldn't know b/c I've only had theirs. Yet their quality stands amongst the best I've ever eaten anywhere in the world! As well, I was rather impressed w/ the friendly server who was super knowledgeable. A very positive experience, altogether.

My first experience of the Mussel Munger was in Stellenbosch on a hot afternoon, and devoured a dozen fresh oysters and a glass or two of the Villiera Brut bubbly. This imprinted such a memory on me, which was nearly 4 years ago, pre-covid (🙌🏼), that I’ve never had to look far to find them again. A few months later of the same year found them at Mojo Market, and this time tried the Mussels, served with a light sauce and delicious deep fried dough balls, us South Africans call ‘Vetkoek’, to dunk the deliciousness of the sauce and ocean fresh fare. This is one of favorites for a low-key date night, or for a quick off the beach snack, paired with some amazing wines from Villiera (Bubbly, Whites & Reds). Highly recommended & ultra consistent! Mojo Market always delivers some great music and entertainment too. Ciao SB 🥂
