We ordered sushi and sashimi which was good but the highlight was the mains. The crisoy fried broccoli on salad and crisoy fried veg was nothing like we had ever eaten before. It was AMAZING. Then came the delicious stir fried rice and delicious crispy spicy lamb with veg. The combo was so delicious that we ate ourselves into a stupor. Wow. We have eaten all over the world and very seldom get sooo impressed. Haiku, you have outdone yourself. 🙌🏽👏🏽👍🏽🙏 Vegetarian options: Best ever crispy fried broccoli and cauliflower read less

Pillowy shu mai was served with three sauces, from mild to slightly hotter, each one unique and layered in flavor. Pan fried mushroom dumplings were served with a delicate spring onion, garlic and ginger sauce. A main dish of sizzling vegetables featured eggplant that had a crunch on the outside and custard texture inside, several types of mushrooms, and light and crispy tofu in a sweet umami sauce, served with delicate and light fried rice. I will dream about this food. This is a must visit Cape Town restaurant for foodies!! read less

Love the decor, loved the relaxed atmosphere.
We didn't even get to the Wok section of the menu because frankly the dim sum sections are enough to go to whatever your idea of heaven. The foodies might have something more delicate to say but all we can utter is that it was delicious... delicious, mouth-watering-recallingly, delicious.
Combined with stellar service provided by Washington, we left with a night we'll remember. You'll be seeing us again Haiku. read less
