The Codfather opened as a Seafood restaurant and Sushi Bar about 10 years ago - one of the first Sushi venues in Cape Town. We serve an excellent array of fresh seafood and sushi in a very vibey, yet warm and relaxed environment. The business has become more of a “family” over the years and many of our earliest staff members are still with us. We do not have any menus and the unique way in which the waiters help you put your meal together works beautifully in that it allows you select everything according to your appetite and budget. In other words the options and possibilities are endless .The uniqueness of the way we work still intrigues and thrills our customers (see more details on Menu page).
Codfather is situated in Camps Bay, home to one of the most beautiful beaches in Cape Town - with wonderful, sweeping views of the ocean and Lions Head. We have the Sushi Bar at one end with a circular conveyor belt and informal seating and then our main restaurant seating area, including a separate smoking section (also with views). The large sliding window frontage allows us to open up to those beautiful warm Summer nights the Cape experiences. In addition there is a large, open fireplace situated in a very unique spot in the centre of it all for the cold winter nights.
We have had little need for advertising in the last 10 years. Sheer reputation and word of mouth has brought us customers from all over the world - many of them, local and foreign, becoming regular visitors. This bears testimony to our uniqueness and our success; at the heart of which lies the buzz or Soul that is the ambience of our restaurant. Our growth and ongoing popularity tells us we have a winning formula in giving our patrons a fantastic meal experience every time.
