Mzoli’s reopens in Cape Town with a new Meat and Grill venue in the Gardens area. The outlets describe the move as the iconic shisanyama brand returns to the city ahead of its spring and summer festive season period.

Multiple reports say the family behind Mzoli’s is expanding the brand beyond its well-known Gugulethu base. While one outlet frames the opening primarily as Mzoli’s “fires up again” in Cape Town, another focuses on the “legacy” aspect of relocating or extending its presence—highlighting the intention to keep connections to the Gugulethu roots while operating an additional venue in Gardens.

Across the sources, the common theme is brand growth through a new location, with the Gardens venue presented as a step in bringing the Mzoli’s experience to a broader Cape Town audience during peak seasonal trading.
