Our story began in 1977 when four brothers opened the first Turn ‘n Tender in Johannesburg.

Since then we’ve become known for our love of great steak, excellent taste in wines and our warm and welcoming atmosphere where customers become friends.

We are the place for all those special celebrations and everyday occasions, because here is where you create a lifetime of memories over a meal.

The very heart of Turn ‘n Tender are the memories you make with us and the ones you leave us with. They all add up to one great story: the stuff that legends are made of.

Turn ‘n Tender
Where stories become legends.

    Never been to this T&T before, but it was great. No stock of a few common items, but overall very good

    We have often eaten at Turn ’n Tender in Sandton and absolutely love the steak. It’s always been our go-to spot, and I’ve consistently rated it as the best steak. However, I must admit that this was unfortunately the worst meal we’ve had there. We shared the 700g steak, and it was extremely tough, over over cooked, like i was fighting with my teeth to chew through— not the usual soft, juicy, perfectly prepared steak we’ve come to expect. My husband had the rib eye and he was equally disappointed. The veggies we told was cream spinach and butternut, more like steamed spinach and butternut.. What also added to the disappointment was that the waitress seemed ready to clear our plates almost immediately after we started eating. It felt rushed, which took away from the relaxed dining experience we usually enjoy there. I still believe in the brand and will continue supporting Turn ’n Tender — and I will always tip, as I was once a waitress myself. I just hope this was an off night and that the quality and experience return to the high standard we’re used to.

    Most of our party had steak & say it was great, & prepared according to their requirements. One had calamari which she said was fantastic. Unfortunately one lady ordered a walnut & fig salad, only to be told they don't have walnut's but can replace with almonds. The salad experience was not great, but everyone else says their meals were great.
