You can never go wrong at Canal Walk OB- the people are great, service is outstanding and the food is even better. I visited OB on Sunday afternoon, it was full to capacity but the host and waiters made every effort to ensure we got a table sooner than expected. Deepak was especially efficient, very friendly and always around to assist. Highly recommended.
We arrived here just after the mall closed, the restaurant was full and we had to wait but not long at all.
We always love the complimentary rolls and it's such a thoughtful touch.
We ordered the inhouse platter for 2 which is basically the same as the platter for 2 but its got calamari heads stuffed with feta and I must say that was the absolute highlight of my meal, but I do love feta so maybe I'm bias.
The waitress had a another lady with her that was in training, they were great and super friendly. Even cracked a few jokes, which I personally loved.
We did order the fish to be fried and it came grilled but that didn't change how amazing the meal was all in all. Would definitely return there.
A bit pricey compared to other fish places but totally worth every cent.
While I’m not a great lover of seafood I do occasionally like to indulge In something other than red meat or chicken. Those are the days I go to Ocean Basket in Canal Walk.
I really do enjoy anything they serve and I think I’ve tried just about everything on the menu.
This place is always busy and buzzing with patrons. Despite this service is excellent and the food is ready pretty quickly.
My favorite meal is the prince prawns with rice. It’s large enough to satisfy my hunger without busting the seams of my purse. I also like the mussels with garlic butter, it’s delicious!
We were a bit reluctant to stop by for lunch...the emptiness of the restaurant was a little concerning as it was lunch time.
Was a good move to stay though...the service was great and the orders came through very quickly. Would highly recommend the flavoured pink tonic lemonade to share for the table.
I received the warmest welcome I haven’t received in a restaurant in a while. The prawns are always good and I was particularly impressed with the tomato fish soup. It’s nice to have a winter menu and looking forward to more evenings there.
Similar to the Sea Point one, a very good Ocean Basket, nice Kingclip and veg! If you do not mind sitting in a mall then give it a try, have some ice cream for dessert
I enjoy visiting the Ocean Basket in Canal Walk mainly because even with a very busy and packed to the brim restaurant, the service from waiters are top notch and my delicious seafood arrived timeously.
They recently had a rebranding giving it a fresh and modern look.
Food never disappoints and I would definitely recommend this OB to anyone.
If you're in the area, I would definitely recommend this Ocean Basket over the one in N1 City. My usual platter for 1 didn't disappoint, nor did the service. It's no wonder this place is always full and Cape Town Fish Market is always empty.

We had a late family lunch here before doing some shopping. The restaurant is open plan and surrounded by clothing shops in the mall. When we arrived we were told to go queue from the Edgar's side entrance. The place was PACKED so we had to put our names on the waiting list. We luckily only had to wait about 10 minutes before we were seated.
To eat we had a combination of fried haloumi (starter portion), calamari and prawns (with chips and rice) and sushi. We had a combination of salmon California rolls and fashion sandwiches, prawn California rolls and prawn nigiri and the new lemon salmon rolls. Regarding the latter, I do commend them for trying to expand their menu and fuse Mediterranean elements with traditional sushi. The sushi was okay. The rolls had a lot of rice in them and for the lemon salmon rolls specifically, the lemon flavor was very mild and to be honest it tasted just like a normal salmon California roll. The seafood dish was great and well cooked as always. I love the sauce served with the calamari (and the mussels too but unfortunately we didn't have any that day). The halmoumi cheese looked like it had been fried extra crispy but tasted great - not too salty and good texture.
Our server was super friendly, chatty and made us feel at ease. He was very attentive with us the whole time and fixed the 'no-ice' glass issue quickly. Impressive considering how packed the place was.
The quality and consistency of the meals here are always good. The sushi is also well prepared and I love the way they try and expand their selection.
The staff is friendly and for an open plan restaurant in a mall, the restaurant is clean and tidy.
Nice place, good ambiance and good food. The waiters were very friendly and welcoming. I ordered the grilled kingklip. The food was good but the meal could have taken more sauce, 1- because the sauce is delicious and 2- because the fish itself doesn’t have much taste.
This was my first time visiting, but i would come back for a more accurate review
Very busy, very packed this time of the year.
Wait in line to be seated.
Waiter tried his best but was running all over the place.
Food arrived 20mins later.
Ordered the lunch box meal and to my surprise it was very filling. The service was great and food was so tasty yum. Ocean Basket’s sauce never disappoints.
I went with my family for a pre Father’s Day dinner. The service was good. The place was buzzing. Waiters were quick and food didn’t take long to come out. Sushi was freshly prepared and platter was nicely spiced with Cajun. Overall we had a great time. Love the new look of the place it almost has the feel your on a ship with the ropes used

This morning I walked into Canal Walk to start my shift. And as I came down the escalator, I heard the most fantastic sound.... the worship song 'Alpha and Omega' being being sung by voices I can only describe as sounding like a Heavenly army of Angels. As I walked to my store, located right opposite Ocean Basket I realized their staff had gathered before their shift and were singing. The impact this had on me, and everyone who could hear it will never be able to be able to be explained on earth, but Heaven surely knows. I went over and met the manager responsible for this, Cassius. And I just want to say thank you Cassius for Blessing me and so many others this morning. I commend you and your staff for setting the tone for the day and starting it off by my opinion, in the best possible way. I pray that God will continue to Bless you and enlarge your territory Cassius, may your store flourish under your leadership and I believe your staff will see favour over their lives. This was an unbelievably amazing experience and I wish I had recorded it but it was too precious to waste time taking out my phone. Once again, I commend Cassius as a manager, a leader, and an example of a Godly man. I have always and will continue to support this store. Their food is phenomenal but so is their whole team.
The prawns in the Mediterranean sauce was delicious but the rice 🍚 for me was cooked well and it was cold
Always a good stop to enjoy a lovely meal and give those feet a rest after shopping 😋
Firstly I would like to thank the management and staff . We came with my family for dinner last night and my wife who is diabetic got a bit sick. The swift help I got from the staff and management was out of this world. Thank you so much. Glad to say my wife is OK. Thanks to Fatima who was our Waitress for being a fun and lovely person. All in all I can say I really enjoyed the whole service and experience will definitely be back for the garden salad 🥗 😋
We shared the platter for 2, which is lovely, but the portion is a bit small when sharing with an adult man. Their grilled calamari is always a winner. Recommend their new fizz drink available for summe -It's not too sweet and very refreshing.
Another very enjoyable meal at OB Century City.
A great welcome and incredible service from Simphine.
Keep up the marvellous efforts!
Thanks OB, until the next time!
