In January 2013, the Marra family was proud to announce their son's completion of his diploma at TCA as a gourmet chef.

​

His passion for the culinary arts shines through in his every-day effort to create only the best for his clients. 

In March of 2017, at the young age of 24, Chef Lucar had his sights set on opening an authentic Italian cuisine restaurant. 

​

With his modern twist on various traditional and very special family recipes, Lucar's aim is to have local South Africans taste and experience Italy whilst sitting in the beautiful vineyards of the Cape Winelands.

​

Villamar is where creative individuals live out their passion. We want to share our passion with our customers by teaching them something new.  That way we can create a great experience that will linger in their memory.

​

We are situated on Oudebrug Farm, nestled between our olive groves, where the philosophies "farm to plate" and "sustainability" are the main focus and are displayed throughout the menu. 

 

At Villamar, meaning house of the Marra family, we will welcome you with open, Italian arms. Our simple, elegant and delicious menu will transport you to a little piece of Italy
