Event information
PIER is an intimate, fine-dining restaurant from the award-winning La Colombe group, set at the edge of the V&A Waterfront with cinematic harbour and mountain views. Executive chef John Norris-Rogers and team craft multi-course tasting menus that lean into meticulous technique, elegant presentation, and a playful sense of theatre, echoing the group’s hallmark style while carving its own maritime identity.
Expect a progression of seafood-led dishes alongside seasonal Cape produce, precise sauces, and intricate snacks that open the experience with flair. Courses often incorporate local line fish, West Coast oysters, and sustainably sourced shellfish, balanced by garden elements, citrus, and umami. Wine pairings draw from leading South African estates and selected international labels, with a non-alcoholic pairing available to mirror the menu’s detail and pacing.
The dining room is refined and quietly luxurious, with limited seating that underscores the personal, attentive service. Lunch offers a shorter journey without losing craft; dinner expands into a full expression with additional courses and surprises. Reservations are essential, especially for window tables at sunset. Smart-casual to elegant attire suits the setting.
