We went to Saigon Suzy based on a friend's recommendation and loved it. Yes, the pricing is a bit steeper than similar places, but, in our opinion, well worth the "splurge". I had the Korean BBQ style pork belly with rice and kimchi (it was a massive portion and absolutely delicious, full of flavour), while my partner had the signature dish - Pork Belly Pho (the broth was authentic and the entire dish was goodness in a bowl). The starters we ordered were also great - Pandan chicken, which was tender and flavourful (and the first time I've seen this ingredient in SA), as well as the fried chicken bao (OMG - so good). They also have a great selection of Asian beers and other imported alcohol, which we really liked, as this isn't common. Their cocktail menu also has Asian style versions, which I am keen to go back and try (I did have the Pandan litchi cocktail, which I loved, though there could have been a bit less of it, as it's quite sweet). Service was very attentive, friendly, and helpful. Definitely going back!
I came here for my birthday last night. We got there at around 7pm on a Wednesday night. I wasn’t able to book a table, but wasn’t too worried, because it was the middle of the week, so I thought it wouldn’t be too full. Well, I was wrong. We ended up waiting about an hour for a table, but it was worth the wait.
Our waiter was so friendly and the service was excellent. The food came out so fast and nothing was missing or wrong.
The food was divine. There were 6 of us, so we really ordered a variety of food and got to taste a lot of different things. This is definitely one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in a while and I will definitely be back.
From the service, to the delicious food, to the ambience. It’s all worth it.
Wow. Just wow.
Decided to be a little adventurous on my visit to Joburg, and I'm glad I did. This place is amazing - both sad and happy I don't live here as if I did I'd be here ALL the time.
Pork belly bao was possibly the best thing I've ever eaten - or was until I tried the broken rice bbq pork belly... Then the brownie somehow came along and stole that spot. The food here gets a 15/10
The staff were friendly and attentive (Reese was particularly amazing as he recommended the godly dishes I had). The manager was hands on and really impressed me.
I will definitely be back on my next visit to Jozi - if I don't it'd be a crime!
