    We had a great time at Mamasamba. The food was great and the service was 10 times better, all thanks to our waiter Lesole!

    The food toke 55 min to come. the waiter said its because it is shushi. That ruined the entire experience. And its overly priced. Only good thing is the waiter was informative and warm towards us. Will try again later in the year.

    Everything was fantastic. Just one of us ordered the rump picana and the meat was a bit on the tough side! Definitely the Best sushi in Jhb!

    The food we ordered was unfortunately not of the standard or quality expected. The seafood paella was overly salty and lacked flavour, with the seafood simply placed on top of sticky rice rather than being properly incorporated into the dish. The lamb chops were also disappointing, as four of the pieces had more fat than meat. The pumpkin served with the lamb chops was still hard inside and needed to be cooked for longer. The cocktails were fairly standard and did not stand out. Overall, the meal did not meet our expectations.

    Good Day Preshni, We are saddened to hear that your dining experience at Mama Samba didn't meet your expectations. We pride ourselves on the delivery of outstanding flavourful food but we evidently let you down with the quality of your meal. I would love it if you could contact me directly if you wouldn't mind. My email address in leon@mamasamba.co.za I look forward to hearing for you and hopefully having you back at Mama Samba for you to truly experience our food at its best. Kind Regards Leon Hansmeyer General Manager.
