Restaurant of the Week - Salushi Intaba


Salushi Intaba -

Having opened its doors in February 2008, Salushi Intaba is the second and flagship store in the Salushi stable of restaurants and a sister of the renowned Wasabi restaurant in Constantia.

Salushi’s concept is simple - specializing in Salads, Noodles and Sushi, the emphasis is on consistent quality and service using the freshest ingredients.
Set in the heart of Claremont’s commercial hub and silhouetted by the spectacular backdrop of Table Mountain, Salushi Intaba recently re-launched with a brand new menu, wine list and cocktail menu and now offers a relaxing lounge area where patrons can indulge in refreshing and innovative cocktails while surfing the net or enjoying sport on the big screen TV.
Signature dishes include Bon Bon Gifts (salmon fashion sandwiches wrapped in salmon and topped with mayo and caviar), Malay Chicken (a rice noodle dish with wok seared chicken strips in a coconut milk, coriander and fresh chilli sauce) and the wok seared Salmon Salad which continues to receive rave revues.
The Wasabi Truffle (Lindt chocolate and wasabi base topped with a delicious Crème Bruleé topping) is an absolute must while the Salushi Soul (a refreshing cocktail with ginger and mint balanced beautifully with sweet vanilla, Tanqueray gin and vanilla sugar) is the perfect way to unwind after a long day.
Under the watchful eye of former squash professional Grant Isaacs, Salushi Intaba is the ideal venue for a long lazy lunch, relaxing dinner while the cocktail bar is ideal for winding down after a long day at the office.
Salushi is open 7 days a week from 12pm – 11pm and offers a 50% discount on all Sushi, every day between 12pm and 5pm and a 2 course meal (any standard starter and any noodle dish) for R70-00.
Daily specials include Soft Shell Crab, Pan Fried Scallops, Spicy Butternut Soup and Calamari Tubes stuffed with Basil Pesto and Mozzarella Cheese.
Situated on 25 Protea Road, Claremont (next to Greens), Salushi Intaba offers a little something for everyone (including take aways, fabulous “office and party platters” and free secure underground parking after 6pm). Call (021) 671 4271 to secure your reservation
