Jose's Taverna And Oyster - Benoni

This is our favorite restaurant. Have been going there for almost 20 years and never been disappointed.<br/ Keep it up Jose, Danial, Fernando ....you guys are like family <br/

Great seafood and atmosphere. The seafood layout was fabulous. The chicken schnitzel I ordered was a bit overfried and dry. We enjoyed the 1st visit. Will definitely try something else next time around.

Great prawns and calamari! The service can be improved though. Danny and the owners are great at welcoming you but the waitrons let the team down. They need to be more service orientated.

01.08.2020 My 900th Review woohoo<br/ <br/ So let me first start off by saying these are not the best pictures of the food, so it doesn't do it ANY justice. It was cold, we were hungry and the family wanted to eat when it arrived. <br/ <br/ We placed a takeaway order for the first time from Jose's Taverna and Oyster Bar as we knew there was a new branch that opened, but the kempton one was alot closer. <br/ <br/ They have some amazing deals on, we took the Family Meal 1, which consists of 1.5kg Portuguese Chicken, 16 Queen Prawns, plus a Tiramisu or Portuguese Biscuit cake, and it came with Spanish Rice and Chips all for R359, so it feeds approximately 4 people. We also decided to add Snails and Chicken livers to try. <br/ <br/ Firstly the shocker is how it's all packed in a plastic container with a blanket in proper crockery. So you need to take it back the next day or they can collect. Secondly the food was amazing. The snails were the softest we've ever had and the sauce was delicious. The prawns and rice were cooked perfectly. The Chicken was slightly under done but nonetheless it was superb. I didnt eat the livers, but it seemed to go down well. Due to a delay with the prawns we ended up getting and extra dessert. Not realizing we got one of each we were wondering why we tasting different things as we just thought it was decorated differently. In the end we each got a biteful of the desserts which were also lovely. Not too rich and just refreshing end to our meal. <br/ <br/ Definitely need to pay them an actual visit and get some decent pics of the food lol. <br/ <br/ #TheFoodMusketeer <br/ #TheFoodMusketeerEats <br/ #TFMJosesOysterBar

Have been going here for years and recently returned. They have certainly reasserted their position as one of the best seafood restaurants around. Their prawns are fabulous beyond and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for top quality seafood. The waiters are lovely and the attention to detail is outstanding. The only drawback in my opinion would be the below par dessert menu.
