Nice atmosphere and friendly service. Food from all corners of Africa is available. Be prepared to wait, though, because it can take a while to get the food. more

Despite being a large restaurant the food (on both occasions we ate here) was fresh tasty hot and interesting. The decor is exotic and there is well chosen background music plus live music and table entertainments, face-painting, and good service. This is definitely a must-do experience when in Joburg. more

The atmosphere is outstanding. The night we ate at Moyo's there was a wonderful French African singer. We had the chicken tagine which was delicious. The face painter was a highlight. more
