turn 'n tender

once again- great service and spectacular food. steaks are cooked to perfection with a generous portion of chips and stir fry veg. one of our favorite places to go.

my husband and i arrived on time for our reservation and as it was busy we were placed at the first table available which was terrible. it was the temperature of the surface of the sun and surrounded by 3 loud families and we could not hear each other speak. we asked to be moved to no avail. when our mains came after a pleasant starter and watered down, over priced cocktails, the meat was blue. we had ordered medium rare and got fresh grazing cow instead. everyone was suitably apologetic and they took our plates back i got quite excited when they brought me new sauce thinking our order will be done soon - but to no avail. my "madagascan peppercorn" sauce (i have yet to find a peppercorn) and "basting" was left on the table to cool down while the refire took 5 years - (we enquired several times and was told "they want to get it right" ????) leaving us with nothing to snack on but overly oily onion rings. by the time the food came my starch order was wrong and the inside of the meat (now medium rare) was ice cold. by that time we were tired of excuses. the owner came to see us and after explaining our situation for the umpteenth time we only paid for our drinks and starters...as a steakhouse i would expect them to know their meat!? however i cannot fault them on their service - the only reason they 2 not 1. i made it very clear that we will not be back and consequently got 3 phone calls offering me vouchers as compensation...erm... appreciated but no thanks. i have already lost 3 hours of my life due the incompetence of their kitchen.

our 3rd visit. a dramatic improvement. our fillet steak and sauces were top notch. the best steak meal i have had in a very long time and up there with the best. chips were just right as well. i'm struggling to find anything to criticize, really. if the manager had thrown out the usual sad family sitting around reading their un-smartphones, there had been a little music and a slight bit more attention from our waiter,  i would have awarded them a solid 5. for a steakhouse in a mall and considering the improvements in food and service, 4.6 would be a more accurate rating from me. great rum on a cold night.

rude waitress. had her before. this is the 2nd time this is happening to us. not going back there. i complained on their facebook page and nothing was done.

really great to go to a good restaurant at cresta again. it’s also great to see a busy restaurant in the centre so make sure you book over a weekend.

their grapefruit mojito is amazing! well worth ordering.

ribs are good but because they’re cut before finished cooking and then basted, i found the basting very overpowering. it is quite handy that it’s precut though.

my hubby enjoyed his sirloin.

all in all a great meal!

i am normally a pro at these things and prefer to make a reservation but i don't know why i forgot. we arrived to a very packed restaurant but the wait wasn't that long plus they have a nice waiting area. got a table after 15 minutes or so.

the food took a while to arrive, understandable.
portions are sufficient. delicious.

our waitress (forgot her name) was very efficient and friendly.

great service

welcome with a smile and our waitress was just amazing . checked up on us regularly . the food was amazing .

we definitely come back again

gotta be my favourite steak house. this one in particular tbough is awesome.
service u you cant beat and they efficient and friendly. we made a booking one night they were packed out table wasnt ready yet . they gave us champagne and shooters on the house . our food comes perfect everytime. the t bone is a must try and i always love my filet, their burgers are my best im obsessed.
you can't go wrong.

what an absolute treat! we know one of the owners mark from a previous restaurant and he definitely runs a tight ship! we where warmly welcomed at the door and taken to our seats (they even made up a special table so my family could sit comfortably under the aircon - was quite a scorching day), we -as were other tables- offered complementary milk tart shots (yummy)! the staff and management where completely on point for the duration of our visit. they have a fantastic wine selection and omg the food!!! the food was at minimum a full 10/10! the star of the day had to be the beef ribs! basted and cooked to absolute perfection! followed closely by the rib-eye steak (brian's bowl over) and the entrecote! the two 'rump - no fat's where also amazing! they have the option to have half/half of sides with your dish which where more than generous in portion. we left happy and very full! what an awesome lunch!

absolutely delicious food and great service!
our waiter, bobby, made the evening so special. he recommended food choices which did not disappoint, especially the bordelaise sauce which is a must try! it was great having good food and awesome service for a change.
the best turn n’ tender branch i have tried thus far.
i will definitely be back.

substantial menu and wine list in a good location. the service was excellent and so was the food. can definitely recommend this for a romantic night out

the new turn 'n tender at cresta is definitely not a let down to the rest of the franchise! the steaks are fantastic! our waiter came to show us the chef's cuts on a massive meat board, which was a nice touch. we also had the marrow bone starter, which came with ciabatta bread and a delicious broth. my gnt was top notch as well. i'll definitely be back!

i am totally not impressed just had lunch there then told i did not add the bill up properly and was charged another r21 when i get home check the bill it was right.....careful of new restaurants

best rump steak in town, definitely try a cut to share, the oxtail or the speciality beef ribs !

great ambience, layout and decor.

top notch friendly staff always prepared to go the extra mile.

my family of 4 went in the first week of opening on a warm windy summer night. the place had a good vibe and furnishing looked great. like the fact that you don’t have to go into the mall to get to this restaurant. had a tasty soft fillet (must be the basting, i know fillet does not have that much flavour) good wine and friendly service although restaurant was packed. we will be back.
