Does Solo Sandton’s menu live up to its Insta fame?

We are not even close to being exhausted from our recent quest of dining in the top fine dining restaurants in Johannesburg and Solo Sandton was up next.  

If you are a regular on Instagram, you may have seen plenty of pictures of a particular wine cellar in the heart of a Sandton restaurant named Solo Sandton. Plenty of well-known celebrities have taken images at this spot before, and the images have been shared on many feeds on the “gram”, but the least talked about is the actual dining experience. 

So, does Solo Sandton food and menu match its Insta-worthy pics?

Located in the heart of Africa’s richest mile, Sandton’s restaurants are often perceived as expensive and only being for the rich. However, Solo Sandton has somehow managed to appeal to everyday people, not just the affluent. The restaurant’s decor is very modern with granite stone style aesthetic from the tables, flooring and walls centred around the bar and kitchen.
