What a rip off!! The difference is I ripped them off. Total of R140 for sweet and sour pork and chicken chow mein. Enough over for supper. Well done chef, great bargain and great food.!

Absolutely the BEST Chinese food ever!!!Freshly homemade noodle every single morning.Everything was so full of flavour and the bow ties were also extremely fresh and not too sweet.The service wasnt very friendly, but at least the food and the view made up.

Very disappointing meal from the only Chinese restaurant on the South Coast. Chicken Chow Mein was dry with virtually no sauce and no veg. Chicken fried rice was very dry and tasteless. Thai chicken curry was nothing like a Thai curry. Sweet & Sour chicken was soggy and the chicken was tough. Was really excited to try the dumplings, which were absolutely tasteless, no flavour at all. Wish I could attach photos🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

My daughters were very impressed with the service they received on Sunday. They were greeted by friendly staff who tried their best to accommodate my younger daughter, who wasnt coping well with the heat. They even removed a few decorative items off the wall just so that the wind could blow freely through the restaurant. The food was great!!! Portions were good value for money and the wait wasnt long at all.

Horrible food, no stock, normal rice, and we were Rushed to leave with bags of oily Sweet and Sour Stuff R1200 could surely buy a finer meal. Thanks though to the ONE waitress that ran around like crazy

Would not recommend. Sushi was quite awful.Response to owner: its a shame you dont even know your own menu, I came in January 2021, you served sushi that was horrendous.

Absolutely stunning food, freshly cooked (so yes be patient). Service is very good from both waiter and waitress. If you are impatient and want fast food take a chill pill. Well done on a smooth operation.

Average. Food was okay but a bit over priced for what you get. Also rice was not Chinese rice

Review №27

Second time we are visiting. Had the set menu A again. Very good value. The chicken soup was good and so was the vegetable spring roll, albeit a bit oily. No liquor license so bring your own. The service was a pedestrian and we also found that the last time.If it has more than than three tables occupied be prepared for a long wait for your food as they have take aways as well which seems to take preference in the kitchen.Try it if you have lots of time.

First impression wasnt very promising, but oh were we surprised. Went for mothers day and they were very busy so service was a bit slow but good none the less. Food was fantastic, portions generous and tasted as if the veg had been picked the same morning. Will definitely be back again and again.

Review №33

We have 2 Chinese restaurants in SA that we trust to deliver on authenticity and quality and freshness of produce....well, now we have found the 3rd!! I must admit, Just so Chinese, wins on all counts when it comes to fresh authentic dishes - Wish I took a picture before and after! Service is great, atmosphere as delightful as you make it, and, if you see itsnotmycat, just say hello, dont be rude, he will not get on the table...

Poorest service EVER!!!Staff fighting in the kitchen. Waiter being attacked by kitchen staff.Walked out with no food.3 other tables left as well.They might as well close their doors.

Review №36

Probably the best Chinese on the coast. I get takeaway from here all the time. Be sure to order way in advance because sometimes they are really busy. We found that most of the time if we ordered 45 minutes ahead of time then by the time we got there to fetch the food was ready. The portion of food you get is value for money. They provide chopsticks and soy sauce. I would suggest purchasing the larger portion as it is only a few extra Rands for double the amount, which confuses me, but great anyways. The guy that works the table and phones is really nice.

This is not a fast food joint, the food takes a while but Just So is perfect to visit with friends who appreciate the experience of sitting and forgetting the time and enjoying good food made with passion by a Chef who wants his guests to savour the whole dining experience and return again, and a host such as Graham who is gracious and by no means pretentious gives a genuine welcome and makes you want to return again

Firstly the service was not up to standard, secondly the food was bland and tasteless. Will not be going back. Jozi and Potchefstroom Chinese resturants should be proud they know how.

The food truly represents the owners a European man married to a Chinese lady . The noodles are pasta and the spring rolls are pastry the food is good but its not so Chinese

Very average food. The sweet and sour dishes were nice, but the Chow Mein was tasteless and dry. The noodles are nothing special. Well definitely give it another go and give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt as this is peak season and the restaurant was very busy.

I have been watching the reviews on this Restaurant and had dinner there .It is a neat Restaurant ande very friendly service . The food is good and freshly made and has a S A flavour to it which makes it popular in the area . However , I have been to the old and new China Towns in Johannesburg plus other Chinese restaurants elsewhere there & London & regrettably truthfully this is not authentic chinese food, possibly because there are no proper Chinese produce suppliers in the area . It will be interesting to see a proper review by any Chinese person

Review №57

Unless you are willing to wait 1 and half hour stay away. The take away line gets preference and the sit down customers have to wait. In the time that we waited two customers left tables to seek food somewhere else. Shocking as this was low season. What is happening when it is realy busy? FYI we left and seek food somewhere else as well.

It might be a good restaurant, but it is important to note that this place is closed between 14h30 and 18h00. Also, they ran out of Coca Cola... this does not bode well.
