Joburg Admin / July 25, 2025

Whether you’re looking to treat the family to a feast or want to celebrate a special occasion without spending a pretty penny, Rosetta’s Bistro, Restaurant & Kitchen is just the place to visit. Not only do they offer great value for money, but they have revolutionised the classic buffet offering, leaving you spoilt for choice no matter what you’re craving.

What Is Rosetta’s About?

Inspired by the legacy of the ancient Rosetta Stone, the décor within the bistro pays tribute to this famous artefact and inspires guests with simple yet quality cooking and ingredients, generous helpings, impeccable service, and unique food and beverage offerings that will tantalise any palate.

Rosetta’s Has Three Different Areas

Area #1: The Outside Area

The outside area is a relaxed bistro space, complemented by a deli-style display featuring a wide selection of freshly made Artisanal breads, paninis and cakes, along with an ice cream station, milkshake station, and a waffle and pancake area if you’re looking to satisfy your sweet tooth.

For quick bites or snacks-on-the-go, passersby have an opportunity to savour delicious ready-to-eat items.

Area #2: The Central Space

The central space can be opened in four directions, and offers the flexibility to expand the outside area into a larger seating space, or can be opened up completely into the main restaurant space. Alternatively, the space can be closed off for private functions and conference groups.

Area #3: The Main Area and Kitchen Concept

This area encapsulates the buffet, the banquette seating, and the freestanding table seating. The presentation of the buffet in the kitchen area serves a variety of cuisines from around the world and gives diners the opportunity to enjoy excellent food at reasonable prices.

The kitchen chefs prepare the majority of the dishes right in front of guests. They also work to present seven distinct culinary speciality sections in the restaurant. These sections include:

  • A Harvest Table
  • The Rotisserie, Roasts and Grill section
  • The Comfort dish section
  • A Mediterranean Station
  • The Pan-Asian station
  • A Kiddies Station
  • The Dessert Station
