Turn ‘n Tender – A legendary dining experience
In 1977 the Aaron brothers opened a steakhouse in Greenside, Johannesburg, and in the following 42 years this legend would grow to include 21 restaurants in South Africa.
The legend even grew beyond our borders and in 2018 they opened their first restaurant in Zambia.
But what can you expect when you reserve a table at Turn ‘n Tender?
Arrive as a customer, leave as a friend
Expect a warm welcome as you walk through the door and not only from the staff, but from the owners themselves; always well-liked members in their community. This is the place where you arrive as a customer and leave as a friend.
A sophisticated atmosphere
The dark wood and copper finishings and leather-covered seats create an air of sophistication, assuring you that this is the perfect place for a business lunch, special occasion or everyday celebration.
One of the walls is decorated with black and white photographs of the founding brothers and an original menu from 1977, which makes it clear that T ‘n T has a proud heritage, the stuff that legends are made of.
It’s all about a great love of steak
The first page of the menu tells you more about the four brothers and delves into Turn ‘n Tender’s philosophy – appreciating a perfectly prepared, quality steak. At the end of the day, it’s all about a great love of steak.
Expect only the best cuts, aged and prepared in a way that is unique to Turn ‘n Tender. Choose our special basting or coating, select your sauce and side and rest assured that your steak will be made just the way you like it.
The knowledgeable staff will gladly talk you through the fine wine selection and recommend the perfect vintage to accompany your meal. There is also a selection of bespoke gins and premium whiskies, an exotic range of cocktails and biltong platters to get the evening started.
An award-winning experience
If all of this isn’t proof enough that Turn ‘n Tender isn’t your average steakhouse let the awards do the talking. Having won Best Steakhouse in Joburg, Ekurhuleni, Mbombela and Pretoria in the Readers’ Choice Awards for many consecutive years, it’s safe to say that calling this steakhouse legendary is no idle claim.
