Good, authentic Thai food. Unpretentious setup, but the food makes the trip worth it. Service slow but very friendly.
I went to Anong for the first time for a friend's birthday dinner and was so pleasantly surprised! Looks-wise, it's a very simple and modest place with very casual service but the authentic Thai food is why you should come here. I ordered the larb (beef) and a bottle of Singha, which took me right back to Chiang Mai. Although I haven't been to many Thai restaurants around Johannesburg (I always assume that the food will be some watered-down, Westernized version), Anong is about as authentic as you're going to get!
Also, the staff went above and beyond to add their own thoughtful touches to the birthday dinner (no special requests were made when booking), which made it that much more special.
Probably the best place to have great Thai food in Joburg. Pad Thai, Som Tum and Yum Woon Sen are always good, kids loved the Satay. There is also fresh tiger prawns grilled on coal fire, just brace yourself when you dip the juicy prawn into their original sauce... mouth on fire but will be back for more.
