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.

    It’s our favourite local steak house, especially with our hungry teen boys. The Steaks are always cooked to perfection & we also enjoy the burgers!

    Disappointing Experience from a Once-Reliable Favorite Sunday Lunch 29 June at 12h00 I’ve been a long-time patron of this restaurant and have consistently enjoyed quality meals here, particularly the rib eye steak, which has always been a standout. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was quite disappointing and left me genuinely concerned about the direction things may be heading. The calamari starter was uninspiring — lacking in flavor and presentation. It felt rushed and underwhelming, especially considering the standard this restaurant has upheld in the past. The real letdown, however, was the rib eye steak. It was not properly matured, and instead of the rich, tender cut I’ve come to expect, it was full of tendons and noticeably tough. This is a significant drop in quality from what has always been a reliable dish. What’s most troubling is the apparent lack of quality control and management oversight on the day. It felt as though the attention to detail and care that once defined this establishment were absent. I hope this is a one-off incident and not a sign of a broader decline. This restaurant has long been a favorite, and I’d like to see it return to the high standards that earned it that place.
