An interesting menu of different cuisines, mainly American, Middle Eastern (a theme we stuck to) and Mediterranean. Sitting inside as to enjoy their air con on a roasting summer day (review based on a December visit). Ingredients were fresh but was disappointed with the bread as hard and tasteless. Tucking into a deconstructed Shawarma, with a wide range of fillings to choose from, Lamb, Turkey, Felafel and more. The Hummus Im Basar is filled with tender fillet cubes and delish. A recommendation was their famous cheesecake, so moreish we ordered extra takeaways. Service was good. Washrooms are in the centre so expect a short walk. Convenient parking.

My absolute favorite place for a quick lunch. My partner and I have been here multiple times and always get the same thing - the hot dog! Tasty sausage, crispy bun and onions and the tangy sweet mustard - absolutely delicious! The side potato salad holds it's own and its not far fetched to suggest that I could eat a giant bowl of it. (Its also served with a portion of coleslaw but coleslaw doesnt excite me as much)

The atmosphere is very relaxed and service does err on the side of iffy when they're busy however the quality of the food is never compromised.

Will continue coming back for my fix!

I love this place! The food is always fresh and flavorful. The serving sizes are HUGE way more than I can ever finish. I went with two friends they both had salads which were huge and I had the Schwarma on a plate which I needed help from the other two to finish. Everything was delicious

Teta Mari was a great find for me some two weeks ago - never knew it existed up that driveway at Illovo Square.  Food is fantastic!!  Middle Eastern - Real American, both amazingly tasty and generous helpings too!  General items aplenty for the more conservative diner.  It was Saturday morning and there was a real hustle and bustle on the go - people coming and going, from the very young to the rather elderly (such as my companion and myself!) - so ambience was super!! Also FANTASTICALLY CLEAN and shining.  Owner and Staff are great people and manage to chat to all their patrons. One feels at home but, best of all, their food could not be faulted - outstandingly good in fact.  I have since had orders  of their very special beef on rye for an office meeting - beautifully prepared and presented on platters and all partaking said it was the best they'd ever had.  I've recommended it to many  people but they already knew of it and rave about it.  Do give it a try!  I shall be going back for sure.  Sally Gallagher

Most amazing wrap/Laffa!! Had the chicken the first time, went back a 2nd time and ordered the lamb and chicken😋,didn’t disappoint. Quite pricey but well worth the satisfaction. Looking forward to trying the rest of the menu.

Came to Teta Mari looking for a slice of cheesecake after reading that theirs is one of the best in Johannesburg. The service was prompt and friendly. Decided to order a kofta special alongside my cheesecake and both were quite delicious. That cheesecake definitely belongs in that 'best in Joburg' list. Overall, a worthwhile trip.

A very cute place hidden in the back routes of Illovo. The decoration is amazing and the service is pretty good.

Their portions are really big. I had a beef burger and go to taste a Kofta place. The food is really delicious and the cheesecake is definitely on of the best I've ever had Definitely see myself coming here for lunch more often

Yummy authentic middle eastern food. Service was good and pricing average. Shakshuka was good. Cheesecake delicious. Think latke and shwarmas. Turkey shwarma on a plate is fantastic.

An early breakfast at this hidden gem. The menu is refreshingly different for the run of the mill breakfast spots. A blend of Middle Eastern and European flavours. The waiter made us comfortable and has a great k owl edge of his products. Coffee was strong and perfectly brewed. The prices on the menu at first glance appear on the upper side but all doubt is gone when the food arrived. Beautifully prepared and generous portions

Had such a lovely experience this morning, so glad we were way too early for the Eyetek appointment. The early cuppa and unplanned delicious cake (😊) I have to confess, was absolutely delish. Waiters and owner/s are all round hospitable and welcoming. Thank you to you all 💕

I like cheesecake and generally with cream as they mostly come a little dry. The cheesecake here was exceptional. Moist and creamy. Really was perfect with the cappuccino I had. The staff were also super. I'll be back
