Kota Joe Roadhouse runs several popular spots throughout Gauteng, South Africa, dishing out hearty kotas.
Their “Screw the Diet” motto captures the unapologetically fun, comfort-food vibe, making it a go-to for casual hangouts, quick bites, or group feeds in a lively roadhouse atmosphere with bold flavours and generous portions.

Menu Highlights
Expect kota varieties like the “Boss” with steak and cheese, towering burgers, peri-peri chicken vibes, and massive shakes in flavours from classic vanilla to boozy options at select spots.
Platters feed 2–6, emphasising value for money (mains around R50–R150). Vegetarian kota options exist, but it’s meat-lover heaven—pair with soft drinks or craft beers.
