Johannesburg restaurant tips
Booking is always recommended to avoid disappointment at restaurants in Johannesburg.
But unless you have a specific restaurant in mind, take your time browsing the menus
as you hop from bar to bar. If you want more than just food from a restaurant in
Johannesburg, order from a table overlooking Nelson Mandela Square and
you'll be entertained by street performers too. Most people tip about 10%
in restaurants.
Johannesburg bars
Head to Johannesburg's Newtown for classic drinks, local performers
and jazz and blues bars. Try bohemian Melville's mixed bag of
restaurants and bars, which are all within walking distance of each other, and
attract Johannesburg's arty and bar-loving crowd. Try your luck between bar
orders at a roulette table at Montecasino in Fourways.
