Super convenient location in Terminal B...The staff is very friendly and attentive.The food is actually very good quality, very fresh and better than other Ocean Baskets Ive and been to.

I like how they improvised sushi 🍣with avocado 🥑 the best

Thank you for making the saying goodbye to my daughter back to university pleasant. Excellent service Franciscah Tawurayi and delicious food

Had the platter for one this evening.. was nice enough.. I was hungry and had most of it.. now 5 hours later am in trouble.. off to the loo every 5 minutes.. waves of nausea.. not sure what I feel I ate was dodgy.. front and back demanding time on the pot.. all shall pass Im sure.. should feel better soon... 2 April 2021..

Great food... Great service..Thanks guys

First to appear were miniature biscuits with butter, freshly made. Accompanying that was a small plate with three-tiny-bowls of: mayonnaise, chopped garlic with a bit of liquid, and tiny-chopped jalapeno peppers.Relaxing at our table I noticed, the various blues used within our surroundings; painted-white-bricks with ocean-type-designs were stenciled on two of the walls.The casual tables were wooden, and one light-and-dark blue tile TABLE set at the main entrance. The wooden tables were covered in Ocean designs cloths. It was a MOST casual atmosphere with two video screes SHOWING soccer GAMES.OUR food arrived.1. Med. VEGETABLE Bowl, which had roastedbutternut squash, baby marrow, with halloumi cheese TOPPED with sliced olives.2. Venus Mexe Platter containing: calamari, salmon bites, halloumi, potatoe rosti, cucumbers, tomatoes,tarama and tzatziki sauces with sliced olives.3. OUR top up: STIR FRY veggies with: shredded cabbage and carrots, sliced red and green peppers, sliced green beans and onions.Ocean Basket has EXCELLENT VEGGIES... Everything is fresh, crisp, ... very filling and nutritious! ADDITIONALLY, they have MANY STAFF AVAILABLE to SERVE, PREPARE, and SPEND a brief time in friendly chat at the table-side with THEIR costumers. Exceptionally TASTY food and ALWAYS VERY CLEAN and COMFORTABLE ‼️😁🎯☮️👁️🌍 ‼️ It is refreshingly unrushed and PEACEFUL to step into this calming setting on one side of the FOOD court at O. R. Tambo Airport in Johannesburg SOUTH AFRICA ‼️ If you have not been THERE, please take your first opportunity to VISIT; you will be HAPPY you did. ♥️🌟🎼✳️🎶👒🙋💥‼️✔️

Good sushi. All menu items not available. Friendly service

Food is normal ocean basket quality. However, staff need to change! They all stand in groups and chat loudly. You can barely have peace of mind and your own conversation. Management forms part of the noise and problem. You have to wave to get attention from any of them. Worst problem of all, is that if you are South African and you are not white, don’t expect service in a hurry! They only run to foreigners. Must be the typical view of getting more tips! Absolutely disgusting service and I would never recommend this place to anyone! By far the worst ocean basket in the country!

Lekker seafood and sushi cooked on point and fast service, very happy and can recommend it, my fav place to eat at Joburg Airport

Lovely food as always! Love the sushi fusions you currently have... But your lemon butter is still my favorite!!!

Quick service. Good food

Lovely homecoming at this lovely seafood palace 😊🇿🇦👌

Lovely place , fish was really good grilled with lemon butter sauce and awesome veg of creamed spinach, cant go wrong

Loved it. This is what Ocean Basket feels like and tastes like. Received well, helped, seated properly, talked to nicely, order came quickly and taste was increasingly accurately appositely Ocean Basket. 5 stars!!!!!! Pic says it was executive

The food is great the customer service is excellent

Excellent food, perfect service, fast and efficient.

Food is always good here, a little more expensive but everything is in the airport 😉

This is the second time eating here. Amazingly, feels as if youd walked into a small Greek taverna. So no surprise owner is Greek. Lovely food to find in an airport. Especially after a long flight from Dublin, this time via Paris. Miss real food after an 18 hour deprivation. Good healthy options for drinks too, refreshing cranberry + orange blossom served in mini carafe and with a paper straw. All good. Food deliciously filled a spot & staff excellent.

Fantastic..love South Africa, Ekurhuleni keep up the good work👍6

Good seafood..friendly service

We always eat here when we enter and when we leave South Africa. Good service and yummy seafood. Cocktails were good too.

The service is great, very friendly servers, however the oysters I ordered were not fresh at all. I eat oysters very often and they had a stale or maybe they sat out for too long...Raw seafood can make a person very Ill if not refrigerated properly.

OMG GOOD FOOD!

Very fresh and very friendly service

Good food, reasonable service

Great place at the airport to eat seafood. Tasty and not too expensive

Our server made this experience so much better that it really was . The food is good but the server was the highlight of this visit .

If you want sushi seafood or anything fish def go here.

Good food and good service.

Food ok, service fine, but for the prices of the meals, one should pay attention to detail, theres a massive difference between fresh bread and TarTar to stale bread and mayo.We expect better from Ocean Basket, but rarely suprized.At the Airport, this is truly where we expect only but the best, but always disappointed.

The hake and fried calamaris good and tasty but, but sadly the rest (French Fries, rice and bread) terrible and not eatable.

WOW! The noise level from the staff far surpasses the actual paying customers.Come on guys!

Food was great and service was excellent. They appreciate you are there commuting so the turnaround time is rapid and still manage to get quality food out. Could not fault them. Well done.

The service here at Ocean Basket OR Tambo, was the best. The lady that helped me Sandra, was the best best best. She took my order and in minutes say like 5, the food was in my table, delicious and hot. She checked on me throughout. 5 out of 5 for the best service. Will most definitely visit here again.

Loved the food (but please no mayonnaise on the sushi!) and the wine. I do not like being pushed to a table by a waiter. I like to take my time to choose where to sit, what to eat, .. give me a minute. But the service was good.

By far the best Ocean Basket in the area. Always fresh food. Amazing service. Well presented. Keep it up guys!!

Awesome restaurant. We always eat there when we get to or leave South Africa. Sandra gave us special service and an awesome experience always

Always good service and food is prepared really well.Assuming they are aware of the fact that people may have connecting flights, as this is the fastest serving Ocean Basket I have ever come accross... I have been here a few times and they consistently deliver good and speedy service.Always a good choice no matter if youre waiting for a flight or just got off one.

Similar to other OB outlets, it serves good and fresh seafood. The restaurant due to the semi-food-court airport setting is a bit open but still convenient enough to dine and wait for the upcoming flight.

Great welcome I received by an employee work at the OR tambo ocean basket by the the name of Hopewell. From the time I came in he was smiling and opened a chair for me. My order he excelled. As a person workingat the airport you find the waiters and waitresses not giving their all. Especially that youd be there for those less expensive meals. But I was surprised to have been given a great experience. Hopewell keep up the great work

The sushi was amazing 😍

Always love coming here when I am in transit. the staff are always friendly and on point. service quick and efficient.

Never seem to surprise with poor food quality.... I would for someone senior to make contact with me... It seems as much in would like to give OB a second and 3rd chance... They never seem to fail on poor performance on delivery and food quality... Makes one think... 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Best place to have a proper dinner on Joburg Airport before departure. We had a great sushi platter, fresh, well rolled and crispy nori.Thanks to Faith, the happiest waitress who made our day! Thank you!

Ive eaten at ocean basket many times all over South Africa and generally its very good, but yesterday the food was exceptionally good. I would have given 5 stars actually, but the service although not bad, hardly ever comes with a smile and enthusiasm. Its just a case of serve and having been here many times before, normally not with and sense urgency. But the woman who served me was OK.

The restaurant is our of passports, before security, one level up with rrespect to domestic arrivals. Quality reliably good as a typical ocean basket. Excellent staff and very quick service. I had calamari heads fried, which were crunchy and very enjoyable.

Tasty tasty tasty foods I have ever eaten, love the sea food platter, worth the price

Ive found that most airport restaurants at O. R Thambo are subpar at best, creating the impression that restaurant standards are not at all upheld here. I was pleasantly surprised by the welcoming staff and great seafood I received at this Ocean Basket. I would recommend the platters (sushi or seafood) along with the baklava for dessert. A great example of the quality service and food that should greet weary travellers and tourists. Well done.

Food really great. Service unbelievable quick. Very friendly staff.

Lovely food lovely service very fast food was awesome and fresh and faith she is a lovely lady thanks 💖

Amazing food!!! Airport restaurants can be disappointing, but this is a must visit spot! Their calamari is to die for! Such a good chef!

Ot is a pleasure having a meal at this branch at OR Tambo. Thanks to the waitress khanyisa who served us and without any issues gladly gave us more bread rolls when we asked if we could get more. The Manager was also very obliging. It is the small things that count and leaves a good impression.

We went back to the Ocean basket at the airport and it was a poor service experience.Staff were standing around chatting No Glass with my drink.no napkins at the table. No bread was offered. For some reason we were told to share the garlic butter and lemon butter sauces between three adults. the baby feeding chairs were really dirty. Its was a hhorrible experience.

Its the BEST restaurant at the airport - value for money - staff are helpful and friendly- Ive been having supper there for 20 years when taking guests whom are on their way back home. ALWAYS GOOD

Very delicious sea food.. I love platter for two..

Brilliant service even made sure my phone got fully charged before I boarded my flight

Excellent seafood! My favourite restaurant in South Africa.Very good service... outstanding!

Best fish ever,so much so we missed our flight. We ordered sushi for starter and the hake and calamari combo, both dishes were awesome!

Had a fantastic meal! Seafood at its best without the big price

We had a nice meal while saying goodbye to our baby girl. Wont see her for a while 😥 Staff was very friendly and took our picture at the table. Emotional moments that were not spoiled by any unpleasantness.

Always consistent food. The ORT Airport ocean basket always has the best sauce on their garden salad...the others dont. Worst ocean basket is George Garden Route Mall location. They cut their salamon sushi in thirds, and cheat their patrons.

Service was quick, effective and friendly. We were still in time for our flight. Food always delicious.

Great sushi

Food was well prepared in record time, servers were courteous and polite even at closing time, when I was there,,,

Waited too long.got late for our flight waiting for our chicken.chicken came with no sauce on it and they forgot to bring our rolls..had to go back to get rolls which took another 20minutes with the slow cashiers getting confused with my slip.even The Manager was also confused. The staff cannot handle the pressure at all.When its busy,they move even more slow.seems like theres alot of politics amoungst the staff here.i will never eat nandos in the airport again.its not the same service as all the other nandos I have been to.

Fresh and lovely food, the service just needs to be improved a bit.

I enjoy the delicious combos offered by this chain. Service is quick and friendly. Food is fresh and clean with a delightful flavour. This is a favourite stop.

Lovely atmosphere, waiters are friendly and food gets made quickly.

Not allowed to keep your luggage close by is ridiculous for an airport restaurant.Very pushy waiters telling you where to sit.Extremely long wait for your order.

Good OB standard. Most tasty prawns. Good service friendly staff.

I really like the look and feel of OB. Though our flight was delayed, the food experience was very good. Nice and tasty seafood.

Great service. Waitrons with great personalities

Not as pricey as other places at the airport and even very good and different breakfast 🥣 menu, which tasted really delicious 😋

This place is okay for a fast meal before you take a flight. The service is fast and food is consistent.

Consistent basic seafood chips and rice at fair prices.

Nice tasteful food fair priced quick service

Of all O Basket I have visited this one by far the best as far as quality and quantity

Delicious fish. Helpful and friendly staff. We love going there.

Food was great. Service lagged a bit. Tables and chairs were not comfortable. Hence a 3. On food alone, 5 Stars.

Nice sushi. Good service.

Good fast service and really tasty food. Well done for a fast food place

The food (seafood platter for 2) was delicious, and the service from Brian was outstanding. By far the best Ocean Basket meal that weve had. 10/10

Good service. Tasty food

Good food. Great place to work from while waiting for flight.

Wait staff blatantly discuss and laugh at patrons reactions to botched up orders. Really wasnt a nice experience.

Different taste of sea foods and it was very nice

Always good service, Mcdonalds at Palms North rand road can learn from this franchise

Dont order their cocktails, its a scam! Bread rolls are terrible. Sushi was good though

Mike (manager) and Bheki (waiter) took good care of us. Bheki made sure he serves us well wish i had tipped him more but i didnt have enough to do so.

Your reply deserves a 5 star rating. Changing it now.

Terrible experience. Rude staff and extremely unhelpful manager on duty. An embarrassing example of service in South Africa. Seeing as it is at an airport, where international guests get their first impression of this country I would highly recommend you speak to your staff about their conduct with customers and just overall assistance was handled with total slack.

Great service, power banks are available for charging devices. Food is great and the atmosphere is also great for making some noise.

Thanks Sandra, Mike and Able (the young man helping me with the scan app). Lovely food, friendly service

They serve old and cold food. Staff is rude and arrogant. I complained about this restaurant a few months back it it has since gone worse.What does international guests think about their bad food and service?

Nothing special about the restaurant... Food was satisfactory. Milkshakes were extremely too sweet.

Orders sushi and fish n chips, food was fresh and quick, the vibe is busy busy as any airport is...staff are friendly and willing to serve with suggestions.

Food is grear for those sushi lovers and price is reasonable.

Great food and staff go beyond their expected/prescribed duties to assist you should you need it,keep it up guys!!!

Friendly staff - my only problem is staff dont seem to understand the restaurant is at an airport as they disappeared for 15minutes while I needed the bill to pay so I can go catch my flight. FrustratingOther than pretty good solid service

Best sushi and great service.
