Guidebook for Sandton
Food Scene
A jewel in Melville. If restaurants were made of paper, this one would be a little origami flower!
On top of an old building at a busy intersection in Melville, this quaint busy restaurant provides incredible views across Johannesburg. I would describe the food as eastern fusion. The crowd is young and hip. This is a place to come relax and enjoy food with friends. The decor is casual relaxed.

Variety of food options, all the basics (grocery stores, chemist, dry cleaners and banks) and a few speciality shops. I love the booksellers' informal store. They set up tables and sell imported books at very reasonable prices. The Uber pick-up spots are easy to find. It's a quiet mall with all your everyday shopping needs. Banks, supermarkets, eateries and a few clothing shops. Very convenient.
