Jozi’s Spots For Hearty And Wholesome Meals
There have been new restaurants in Jozi opening up, and they are nice restaurants that also offer event spaces for that special occasion.

Nothing beats a wholesome homemade meal during a cold day or night to get you satiated and full of life. But, with load-shedding schedules chopping and changing, especially if you lead a busy life, it may be difficult to create these meals at home. Fear not; Johannesburg Housing Company has a few restaurant suggestions for nice and trendy restaurants in Johannesburg.
First Up, Flavours Of Mzansi
Johannesburg is not only rich in the representation of South African culture; Constitution Hill, the Johannesburg Art Gallery, Market Theatre, and Gold Reef City offer Joburg residents and visitors a look into Mzansi’s history and where the city was decades ago. And when it comes to food for Mzansi, Jozi does not spare at all. Visit the likes of Pata Pata in Maboneng, Sakhumzi restaurant in Soweto, Kitcheners in Braamfontein or Kwa Mai Mai in Jeppestown, and you will be treated to delicious local dishes like pap, skop (cow or sheep head meat), chakalaka, braai meat, steamed buns, etc. Salivating already? We haven’t even gotten to the flavourful drinks that go with some of these meals, and we promise they are a treat.
Africa Is Open For Business
Johannesburg is one of the cities that is dominated by a lot of people from different parts of the world, more so Africa. And if you are from Nigeria, Kenya, Ethiopia, Ghana, Lesotho, Botswana, etc., it can be difficult finding a meal that has a taste of home. Fear not, because Johannesburg CBD has a few food stalls where you can access food from across the continent. You can also visit Little Addis in Maboneng or Yeoville Dinner Club for a taste of great flavour, spices, and combos from out of this country, literally.
A Little Bit Of Fine Dining, Shall We?
If you want to experience Jhb restaurants with a view, we’ve got you covered. Places like Melville and Greenside are great for restaurants that offer an amazing views, and if you want to dine like royalty while overlooking the city lights, Sandton and Rosebank are your spots. There have been new restaurants in Jozi opening up, and they are nice restaurants that also offer event spaces for that special occasion. Take MamaSamba in Rosebank, which offers a range of meals and drinks inspired by the Spanish-Latin culture. Go taste a bit of international sensation at MamaSamba.
Come For The Food, Stay For The Convenience
One of the things Jozi prides itself in is the ability to let people move around with ease. Navigating to the places we suggested above is easy if you have a car. But if you don’t, it might be easier as you will not have to worry about parking. Take a taxi, e-hailing service, or a bus to your destination and only worry about the good time you’ll be having. If you want to become one with the city and stay here, we are happy to let you know we understand the heartbeat of Jozi more than anyone, so take a look at our affordable apartments in Johannesburg.
