Eat Out unveils Best Everyday Eateries for Gauteng, KZN and Mpumalanga
After Eat Out announced its list of best everyday eateries in the Western Cape, the lists for Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, and Mpumalanga were unveiled at the Eat Out Mercedes-Benz Best Everyday Eateries celebrations in Johannesburg on 24 October 2017.
These accolades were presented after a year-long period of voting and a gruelling adjudicating process. The top names in each category were determined by star ratings given by the public on Eat Out, in conjunction with scoring from professional Eat Out critics.
“It’s always exciting to see the results of these awards, as they give us a clear picture of where people like to dine in their own neighbourhoods. We congratulate the winners on being voted the best by those who matter most – their loyal fans,” said Selvin Govender, marketing director – Mercedes-Benz Cars.

For the first time, Eat Out also recognised a reader-reviewer chosen from the entire user base across the country for their contribution to fair and balanced reviews. The winner is Joash Narainsamy, who has posted reviews of more than 40 restaurants on Eat Out. Eat Out’s editors praised these reviews for tactfully mentioning areas for improvement while applauding restaurants’ successes.
The eligibility period for reader reviews for the Best Everyday Eateries was 1 October 2016 to 30 August 2017, followed by the completion of critic reviews in September 2017 for the qualifying restaurants.
