What our clients say
Fish and Lester are two absolute gents. The food and drinks pairing are out of this world, one of the most elevated dining experiences and Fish is the most talented individual and repping Durban 👌
Cade L
I was absolutely blown away by Wiggle. It's so different from the usual fine dining. There's no set menu; it changes every week, which is a surprise that I love. Fish and the entire team provided amazing service The absolute highlights were the grilled trout with caviar, the springbok tartare, the beef with fried matsutake mushrooms, and the dessert—it was not too sweet and perfectly balanced. Another great thing was the amazing cocktails!
