The Opal Lounge
May. 13, 2009 No Comments Posted under: Restaurant Reviews
Amongst the array of Kloof Street’s gems, the Opal lounge tends to stand out, exuding that extra bit of eclectic opulence.
Positioned as a sophisticated yet homely restaurant, the Opal Lounge is situated in a 111 year old Victorian villa on the lower end of Kloof Street. Two stylish dining rooms, a glass enclosed Verandah, dramatic bar lounge, and garden deck, each one differently designed, provides a unique encounter for every visit.
The Oriental Lounge is an elegantly styled room displaying Chinese antiques, an enormous chandelier and other interesting Chinese works of art. The working fireplace further enhances the room’s ambience when dining in on cold and rainy days.
The Persian Lounge is the largest room with oversized couches, beautiful Persian rugs, Persian copper lanterns and ancient saddle bags adorning the walls, as well as a working fireplace adding warmth and mood.
The Verandah offers smokers, or non-smokers, a unique dining experience with great views of Table.
The Bar Lounge hosts original pressed ceilings meticulously hand-painted in black and gold, with Louis XV chairs and beautiful sofas to complete the look.
The Colonial Lounge is The Opal Lounge’s cozy smoking bar, decorated in antiques, fabrics and paintings from across Africa.
Lastly, the Garden Deck is a wonderful area for a pre, or post, dinner drinks and will become the area for lunches on hot summer days and lazy Sunday morning brunches.
