About Visit Joburgs oldest Restaurant
We regret, we no longer recommend this establishment.
It is with great sadness that we have to advise that Madanjit Ranchod died in December 2007, and Kapitan's subsequently closed.
Kapitan's Oriental provides traditional Indian curry cuisine at their restaurant in Johannesburg.
Visit Joburg’s oldest restaurant (over a century) and still going strong despite its downtown location. Kapitan, who has been cooking curries for over 57 years, remembers Mandela sampling his first Campari here.
Beware the Madras curry - its hot enough to start a fire.
