Nine Lives Supper Club Review

Posted on by

Nine Lives Supper Club is a hidden gem tucked away in a sleek, sophisticated oasis between the 4th and 5th floors of The Hyde Hotel in Rosebank, Johannesburg.

I attended the launch, and it was pure magic. Sleek lines, stylish design, and just the right kind of quiet, yet sexy, luxury that Joburg has been craving. The menu may be small, but every bite is a masterpiece. Their smoked olives are a revelation, and the cocktails/mocktails are worth every rand. Plus, they’ve even got Russian caviar flown in fresh from Moldova. It’s on the pricier side, but this is what you expect from a spot this refined.

Overall, Nine Lives is a sophisticated, sexy supper club, where you can experience curated tapas type food and drinks, with a small selection of main courses.
