"The iconic Wandie’s Place in Dube, the heart of Soweto, originally operated as an illegal shebeen (bar) during apartheid. It is now a restaurant and bar loved by both tourists and locals. Celebrities including Chris Rock, Will Smith and Richard Branson have been seen here. It is well known for serving traditional African food such as umngqusho (seasoned corn and bean stew), marogo (wild African spinach) and chakalaka (spicy onion and tomato). Sit at long tables inside or outside and mingle with the friendly locals." - SilverKris

Great place with lots of history. The food was great but the signs of the Covid void are visible. Nonetheless, it is quite remarkable how they have kept going, even without electricity over the last few years.

If you looking for a little bit of history in a beautiful intimate place you found it. By far one of the most historical places I've ever visited. Couldn't believe the world renowned people who have been here. There's currency notes of places I didn't even know exist. The host Wandi is the sweetest old man who tells the most beautiful stories. The food was authenticallly South African. Highly recommend for tourist and locals. Icing on the cake is being able to write your name on the wall amongst the many who have came and gone.

I oredered the beef curry, with dumpling, salad and mash.... Honestly the mash was watery it looked like porridge truly a dissapointment, my curry was just chunks of meat, potatoes and 1 carrot slice, it was edible but not flavoursome... Either way I truly enjoyed the salad
