A Menu Built Around the Braai

Our menu is a celebration of grilled specialties and the hearty dishes that accompany them. We focus on doing a few things exceptionally well, ensuring that every item we serve meets our high standards for taste and freshness.

• Signature Grilled Beef: The cornerstone of our kitchen. Our beef is marinated and grilled to perfection, achieving a beautiful char on the outside while remaining succulent inside. This is the must-try item for any first-time visitor.
• Flame-Kissed Chicken Curry: A unique fusion dish that combines tender, grilled chicken with a richly spiced, aromatic curry sauce. The smoky notes from the grill add a wonderful depth to this classic comfort food.
• Hearty Salads and Sides: We provide fresh, crisp salads and a selection of sides like perfectly steamed rice, including our popular Pulao Rice, to balance the rich, smoky flavors of our grilled meats.

Pakistani-Inspired Specialties

In addition to our core braai offerings, Shisa Nyama has carved out a reputation for its delicious Pakistani-influenced dishes. This unique blend of culinary traditions sets us apart and offers our guests a diverse and exciting menu. The rich, aromatic spices and cooking methods bring a new dimension to our kitchen, delighting customers who are looking for something both familiar and adventurously different.

Our Chicken Curry and Beef Pulao have become local legends, drawing in customers who appreciate the complex layering of flavors. These dishes are prepared with the same care and attention as our grilled items, using high-quality ingredients and authentic recipes that have been perfected over time. The result is a comforting, flavorful meal that satisfies the soul.
