Sushiitto on South

Reviewed By Gilda18

Small but significant. Excellent service, great food and the owner Pedro on hand making sure that everything is just right. Take a seat at the fish tank table, it really is relaxing. Vegan sushi absolutely delicious, available and soon to offer a vegan ice cream bar. Well worth a visit. A selection of Asian food.

Reviewed By Beryl R

Asian Fusion food is one of my favourites so we had a very happy healthy lunch at So Yum. Their combinations of salads all sound wonderfully mouthwatering but we settled for the pulled duck and beetroot salad,with caramelized nuts and a mustard mayo dressing. It was well presented and appetizing and it really was delicious. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. It isn't the cheapest place to eat a salad, but they use expensive ingredients so I guess you get what you pay for.

FireRoom Sushi & Grill

Reviewed By Les P

My lovely wife and I have been to the Fire Room before and loved it. On this occasion we were seated upstairs and ordered 2 starters to share. They came within a few minutes and were great. We then ordered sushi for our main course - and waited - and waited despite chasing up on the order. After nearly an hour we had to cancel the order as we were now running late for a show. The bill and our sushi arrived at the same time! The manager on duty suggested they would keep our sushi until after the show or we could have our starters and wine on the house. We refused both offers and quickly paid for the wine and starters. The manager on duty saved the day by handling the situation so very well. We will be back!

Reviewed By Stefano P

Nice atmosphere and good service (even if it was almost empty).We order few dim sum but the quality wasn’t good.The salmon was really tasty but small portions and overpriced.The deserts was good but nothing special If I’ll go again I’ll try the sushi.For 3 dim sum, 1 salmon, 1 water and 2 deserts we paid 700 rand.A bit overpriced

Wangthai Restaurant

The flagship of the Thai Africa Group is undoubtedly Wangthai Sandton which overlooks the prestigious Nelson Mandela Square. The most authentic Thai restaurant outside of Thailand. Wangthai Sandtonalso serves the DIY dining experience: sensational Thai Su

Reviewed By Chermene

We’ve been to Wangthai with 5 friends. We all took a different dish, so we could taste and share the food. The friend rice was a bit plain. There was not much difference between the regular white rice and the fried rice. It was fried at the bar minimum. The chicken with cashew however was to die for. Just like the duck with honey. My friends had the green curry with chicken. Originally it was with lamb, but they changed it into chicken. Also the wok beef was very nice. The taste buds were wide open and enjoying every moment of it. In combination with the perfect South African wines from Stellenbosch... I strongly recommend this restaurant if you crave for Thai food.

Reviewed By Robert T

At first I was put off by the extensive menu but was quickly charmed by the attentive professional staff. And then the food started coming out - everything was superb.The Peri-Peri Chicken Liver appetizer is a must as is the grilled calamari. We shard and tasted entree items from a Chicken Curry to Barramundi fish with vegetables to Lamb Chops and Salmon Poke Bowl - each was delicious The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is that the food all came out too quickly. Before we could finish appetizers the entrees were arriving and it felt rushed. An interesting problem in South Africa where many restaurants are known for poor and slow service.....The place has a great vibe and is packed or a reason - they deliver good food at a great price!
