You may recognize the head chef Angelo Scirocco, who worked as sous chef at Chefs Warehouse in Cape Town and competed at the 2015 S.Pellegrino Young Chef Awards. Scirocca says “the essence of their food comes from using the highest quality of fresh Asian and local ingredients while harnessing the character of street food with an Avant Garde thought process”

Urbanologi is open Monday to Saturday from 12pm – 2:45pm for lunch and 6pm – 9pm for dinner, and the bar is open from 12pm – 10pm. On Sundays, the restaurant is open from 12pm – 4:45pm for lunch and the bar is open from 12pm – 6pm.
