    We Say

    Food
    Prepared by Chinese and Japanese chefs, the dim sum, sushi, noodles, robata grills and wok dishes are meant to be ordered in abundance and shared, so ideally you should go with a group of friends. The prawn toast, served in a portion of four, is recommended, as are the spicy lamb dumplings.

    Wine
    There’s a huge wine list with helpful descriptions and suggestions for matching with your food, which can sometimes be challenging when eating spicy dishes.

    Service
    Slightly overbearing when the restaurant is quiet, but overall polite and efficient.

    Ambience
    It’s dark with lacquered wood and soft lighting, giving it a bit of a nightclub feel. Tables are close together, which enhances the feeling of communal dining – or you can take a seat at the bar that runs the length of the open plan kitchen and watch the chefs at work.

    And...
    There are two sittings in the evening and a minimum spend required. (BC)

    There is a huge change at Haiku: 1. The price per star has decreased to R 40, and half stars have been introduced, at R 20. 2. Many dishes have been made more expensive, in becoming 1/2 or a full star more expensive, e.g. the Duck Orange is now 3-star (was ...
