We went with friends on Sunday 19 May. This was not our first time, and as on the previous occasions it was again a fun evening out! if you consider that the price includes a 4 course meal and spectacular entertainment, it is great value for money. You have to commend management and their excellent team on delivering slick, efficient,... More

We've only been to Madam Zingara once but oh, what an experience! We enjoyed every minute of it. The show & and the food were excellent. It is not cheap but if you consider what concert tickets cost today I would say that Madam Zingara is actually good value for money.

Went to the Cape Town Waterfront show with colleagues from work. We had one of the booths at the back of the theater (probably a good thing as one of the acts splashes a bit of water on the front tables). A good time was had by all my colleagues. The show itself was very entertaining and all the acts... More

We went as a group celebrating a friends birthday, the place is very professional, efficient and wonderfully warm and welcoming, yea I do not know how they manage all of that myself. Even though there must have been 100 + people the meals were served in an amazingly efficient way. We never had to look for a Waiter in the... More

Madam Zingara, the Restaurant does not exist any more, but....It is now a dinner show at the Theatre of dreams on the Waterfront. This is something not to miss! A fantastic experience! We went with two friends from Switzerland and we were all totally enthralled with the entire evening. The dinner was excellent, the service unforgettable and the show out... More

Absolutely, mind blowingly incredible! Waitering staff were amazingly friendly, full of smiles and jokes and were attentive. Food was really tasty and very different to what you'd expect being mass produced. The show itself was very different. Some things you would expect from a circus except performed completely differently. The host (a beautiful transvestite) was charming and dazzling. Amazing night... More

Having Heard about Madame Zingara's for a long time and we finally arranged to go. What a fun evening. The atmosphere is absolutely fantastic, the venue is beautiful, the food awesome (even cater for food allergies) and the service outstanding. The highlight is obviously the show - amazing talent and such a professional show. Dress up or buy some outfits... More
