Kolonaki

Johannesburg


Opened in 2018 on a street crammed with popular high-end restaurants, Kolonaki became an immediate 'must-book-well-in-advance' kind of place. This modern Greek restaurant serves colourful and delicious dips and mezze on equally colorful dinnerware that screams to be Instagrammed. It's nearly impossible to not order a crisp glass of white wine while sitting on the outdoor terrace, surrounded by tropical palms.
