We love what we do
From the very best of local design and art to cuisine, wine and hospitality, Ellerman House strives to offer a world-class guest experience that remains authentically South African.
The restaurant at Ellerman House is a proud part of the city's thriving culinary landscape, offering guests a refined dining experience in a setting that feels like home. Exquisitely balanced and plated with extraordinary care and skill, each dish reflects the beat of seasonal produce and mouthwatering flavours.
Pitch-perfect wine pairings are carefully selected to complement every menu, while guests sit surrounded by remarkable pieces of South African art. At Ellerman House, these three elements - art, wine and food - combine to tell the story of our country and our love for all it has to offer.
Kindly note advance booking is Essential.
Ellerman House proudly introduces Curate, an elevated fine-dining experience that reimagines South African cuisine. Set within the striking Wine Gallery, Curate presents a meticulously crafted multi-course tasting menu that celebrates the finest seasonal ingredients. Each dish draws inspiration from Southern Africa’s rich culinary heritage and diverse cultural influences, offering a refined expression of place and flavour.
Head chef Kieran Whyte and his team delight in putting together all manner of tasty treats and savoury snacks for our 24-hour Guest Pantry. Prepared fresh daily, the shelves are stocked with homemade cakes, cookies and other confections, as well as jars of favourite South African candies. The more restrained among you can enjoy lighter options such as date balls, fresh seasonal fruit and a selection of sugar- and gluten-free baked goods.
In addition to the array of naughty nibbles, guests can also help themselves to savoury quiches, wraps and tarts - perfect for a quick bite or to grab on your way out for the day. A fully-equipped tea and coffee station completes the offering.
