The staff is useless...had to ask top up guests wine glasses. They are not accommodating...when requesting a tasting menu the chef’s say they can’t do it, yet other restaurants can. They only thing you get at this restaurant is a view and huge portions...food is mediocre

The bread
The extra addition of sumac and salt to the bread served gave us a hint that we were in for an extraordinary dining experience.
Drinks
Given lock down restrictions we were provided with a virgin cocktail and dink list. I opted for a very refreshing and pallet cleansing no sex on the bay cocktail and minty Mojito. I would highly recommend both.
Starters
In addition to the clear and concise menu a salad and soup was recommended for the day. Having tried the crispy fried calamari, fresh saldanha muscles and prawn tails I can say with confidence it was the best starters I have ever had. The crispy calamari spiced simply allowed the calamari to be the star of the show. The glossy sauce accompanying the muscles was light yet immaculately flavored. The prawn tails with jasmine foam was a one of a kind dish.
Mains
I was immediately drawn to the beef fillet. I always say that a restaurant is only as good as its steak. This steak melted like butter. The prawn tail squid ink linguine had an unbelievable flavorful sauce and the fish and chips the most buttery and fluffy fish.
Desert
I am a crembrule lover and just wish the custard was a tad bit firmer. However, the custard was silky and filled with vanilla bean.
It is pointless for me to recommend any dishes as the menu is constantly changing. However, I do recommend the restaurant as a whole because you're guaranteed to love everything.

Exquisite dinning experience. Top class quality meals that are innovative, cooked to perfection and a totally sophisticated touch to each meal presented. I would rate this the best private dinning restaurant in Durban. Beautiful views over the harbor, comfortable seating and decor. Just a all round fabulous dinning experience.

9th Avenue Waterside is such a stunning restaurant, eloquently decorated and overlooking the yacht's in the harbor. I had such a mind blowing experience, the staff are super friendly and welcoming and the food is heavenly. The ambiance and vibe at this fabulous restuarant was amazing and with the wide variety of flavoursome food I would highly recommend this place. I cant wait to visit again😁
