If there’s one thing the East Rand does not have enough of, it’s great halaal sushi spots. So when we heard J&S sushi was coming to Benoni it had the whole town buzzing.
We tried them out last weekend. They’re in a bit of a dodgy part of Benoni town on Elston street, but it’s inside a fenced complex and wasn’t so bad. They have a few good special offers and prices are quite reasonable. We ordered a 20 piece platter for R225 with 5 different types of sushi. Happy to say the sushi was really good, a decent size and not skimpy on the ingredients. Besides sushi they also offer chinese dishes like chow mein which was ok and fried rice.
J&S first opened from home in Athlone, Cape Town in 2019. The owner is Jamal Trezires, a chef specialising in Asian food, with a particular passion for Japanese cuisine together with his wife Shakeera (the S in J&S).
Having big plans they quickly rolled out 4 restaurants in Cape Town and turned their sights on Johannesburg. They opened their first Joburg store in 2021 and now have 5 stores all over Gauteng. They are popular for takeout and you can find them on UberEats and MrD.
