The Grill Room at The Oyster Box Hotel
A 70-year heritage of gracious fine dining.
A visit to Durban without a meal at The Grill Room is a visit incomplete. For more than 70 years, this elegant institution at The Oyster Box has set the standard for fine-dining in KZN, blending classical continental cuisine with locally sourced produce and the warm hospitality of the Durban coast. The signature guéridon service – dishes prepared and plated tableside with theatrical, flaming flair – remains a highlight, as does the award-winning wine list housed in the adjoining vinoteque. Under the current executive chef, the menu balances timeless favourites with inspired contemporary creations. Theatre, nostalgia and artistry in equal measure.
Don't leave without trying:
Le guéridon steak Diane: a 32-day-aged Chalmar beef fillet flambéed tableside, served with champignon, potato fondant and broccolini almondine. If money is no object, go ahead and begin your meal with the Cru Royal Beluga caviar, served with potato pavé, blinis, chives and cultured crème fraîche.
