We couldn't be more excited about this move. Beijing Opera has made 44 Stanley its permanent Joburg home. Expect delicious food in an intimate and inviting setting. This is the place to find a fresh take on Pan-Asian dining.

Started by Yang Zhao, you might recall the Beijing Opera Pantry in Cape Town, a beloved eatery renowned for its exceptional dim sum and communal dining style. Beijing Opera has now returned to Johannesburg, bringing its cult favourite dishes and an expanded menu.

With a reputation built on distinctive flavours and a laid-back atmosphere, the restaurant now features a broader Pan-Asian menu with a focus on fresh ingredients and bold flavour. This includes beloved classics such as bao buns and noodles, alongside the signature dim sum that first won hearts in 2014.

Whether you're a fan of the original dishes or new to Pan-Asian cuisine, the dining experience – whether you choose to sit in the courtyard or take away – is designed to be both enjoyable and memorable.
