A fabulous place to celebrate our 23rd anniversary! First time that all 3 courses we chose were wonderful for both of us. Would love to go again.

Upon arriving at Mamasamba we were disappointed by the fact that our table was not ready for us even though a booking had been made, we sat at the bar while waiting for a table and didn’t receive any service. This was the only part of the evening that was disappointing, after this the service and food was amazing and the manager was very friendly and attentive. The fillet and sushi dishes were absolutely delicious and the cocktails we tried were also amazing. Thank you Mamasamba! :)

About MAMASAMBA

Cuisine: Mediterranean

A playground in the concrete jungle where the sun warms your face and fire ignites the night.
Where the vines sway and the birds dance.
A land rich in bold flavours
and distinctive beats.

BIENVENIDA A MAMASAMBA!

Our restaurant is split over two levels. On the ground floor, you can dine whilst enjoying mesmerising views of our live-fire kitchen and the bustling Rosebank square. A journey up the spiral staircase takes you through our cocktail bar into our supper-club lounge where you can dine to the beats of the streets.
