Orient Review

With its super-slick interior, world-class dim sum, and security-conscious location, Orient is an absolute must for foodies who love Asian and find themselves in Johannesburg. Among a wide-ranging menu that includes all the usual favorites (including satays; spring rolls; spicy soups; red, yellow, and green curries; and pad Thai), interesting alternatives abound -- Hong Kong Pears, Chi Chee Gao, Bang Bang Duck, and Grilled Banana Fish, to name a few. And if that's not enough to tempt you, they also make great sushi.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
