Everything was perfect. Hostess went out of her way to make us comfortable.
One of the few (if perhaps the only) places you can get prawns cooked to perfection, juicy, tender, perfect. Everything else is really good too, this restaurant never fails.

21June 2020 marked the first anniversary of The Prawnery, Illovo. The Prawnery opened its doors to an excited and welcoming Joburg community, who were fascinated by its menu. A meze offering that called for 1 of each and an abundant and decadent main offering that really hit the spot!
In just a year, we are having to define and craft exactly what The Prawnery will be in years to come, now more than ever and under the most stringent of health precautions, are we doing purposeful meal planning and a curated food offering that is a treat and as always, a delightful eating experience, but is also nourishing, wholesome and meaningful.
