"Great food, average service"
5.0 Cuisine 7 | Service 4 | Atmosphere 4

We were excited to try out Nocture, as the restaurant week menu looked divine.
The food and drinks were great, however we were let down with the service of the food servers (the bar staff were incredible!).
The food servers did not explain the elements to each dish and were not very friendly. We unfortunately won’t return and won’t recommend this to anyone.

"Great experience!"

Nocture provides a high quality dining experience. The highlight was our main, namely the pap amasi hit the spot. We did the wine pairing and a cocktail pairing, can’t really pick one over the other. We were so full by the end of the night, we rolled ourselves back to Cape Town!
