Me and my family have been there 4 times since opening and have had excellent service and food every time. My Wife and I Celebrated our 30th Wedding Anniversary there on Monday. Once again the food and Service was Awesome. I did not tell them about our anniversary until the bill came and the waiter (Joe) still went out of his way to treat us with something special before we left. Even though we had already finished paying. Turn 'n Tender - You guys are Awesome. ������
So it’s tradition in our family for JP to have a Guinness for Lala’s birthday since it’s also St Paddy’s Day. Her choice of restaurant tonight was Turn ‘n Tender Cresta where we were told they don’t serve Guinness. Nevertheless after much disappointment both from dad and Lala a normal beer was ordered. About 10 minutes later Nimrod the manager and Keith our amazing waiter arrived with a Guinness. He had gone out of his way to source and buy not one but two from somewhere else! As he arrived at the table with the beer Lala screams out “he got a Guinness now it’s my birthday!” Well done to Turn‘nTenderCresta you really made the meal an awesome experience! Thank you...
Love this spot. Meat is expensive in general but the prices are not bad.
Rather spend a little extra here than go to a boring spur
Iv been to this branch a couple of times.... Iv had some good and some bad times but overall it's been good... We often have their burger special that's always a winner... I tried their new fish on the menu I don't think it was the greatest but their meat is always a win
My partner and I came here for a meal before we went to catch a movie .
It was quite empty and we initially opted for an outdoors table but later moved indoors to a booth . The outdoor tables overlook the parking lot and there’s too much going on outside it was a bit distracting for me .
My partner wanted to smoke and I don’t think the place caters for smokers because there was a no smoking sign in the outdoor area and I doubt you could smoke inside so a heads up for the smokers .
Our waiter was super friendly and gave us great service .
The decor and atmosphere of the place have a very vintage feel . I really liked the lights that are hanging from the ceiling they create a soft mood and the place doesn’t feel too much like a diner . To eat we both ordered the ribs and calamari combo . But I had the tubed calamari and my partner the squid heads . The ribs were so juicy and succulent . And the calamari was great ,I absolutely enjoyed the lemon and butter sauce it was swimming in .
The food was really good but it took a while to cool down . Really wish more restaurants would invest in cooling plates.
They also give you these purple bibs which are super cute . And they came in handy because my partner was wearing a white shirt and is quite a messy eater .
This is a great spot and would definitely recommend it .
Wow, what an amazing dining experience! My husband and I went to Turn 'n Tender for a meal to ourselves last Friday night. I booked a table in advance and received an SMS to confirm my booking.
We were seated and attended to quickly, our drinks arrived promptly and we were given just enough time to decide on our meal. The waitress was very professional and took our order with a smile.
Then the food arrived - all I can say is "Wow!". Our meal was truly spectacular and reasonably priced for the large portions. I had the calamari and steak combo, and my only complaint is that the calamari was a bit cold.
The restaurant was fairly dimly lit, but this added to the great ambiance - it was quite a romantic setting and the general chatter was enough to indicate that everyone was having a good time.
Wednesday night just got better a lovely 200g Sirloin grilled to medium perfection served with some vegetables, absolutely great.
The night out was topped off with excellent service from our man Nhlanhla he was fantastic, and gave us good run down of the meats available.
It was good night
The food is great, recommendations from me would me the garlic bread and squid heads for starters. They make very good steak and the ribs are really good. The ambiance is really good. Service can be good sometimes and not so good at other times. But generally good. Prices have gone up but I still do think it's worth it.
Second date night and boy, we were not disappointed! The fillet steak was cooked to perfection and the ribs, just delicious. Well worth it and we will be back for sure
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.
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.
We had an amazing family lunch on Sunday as we took full advantage of their amazing R41 for a sirloin birthday special. Obviously we all ordered the special. I was so impressed with the service and food quality considering the hoards frequenting the restaurant.
The venue is situated by the mall’s exterior so the outdoor breeze on a summer’s day is delightful. I ordered some water to clear the pallet and have to admit, the San Diamante water they give you makes you feel special, it goes down different. We ordered pork ribs which were expertly done and thoroughly enjoyed. The fish was well done and feeling. All meals came with a side of either mash, chips, rice or veggies.
Now, as for their signature meals, the steaks. The rib-eye and T-bone steaks were both tender, juicy and absolutely loaded with flavor. Ordered both steaks medium to rare and amount of fat was at a minimal. Both came on hot skillet plates so heat was constantly radiating through the meat hence steaks were more savory, and we devoured everything. The side pepper sauce was also exquisite and added more flavor to an already flavorful bovine.
The staff was good and highly vigilant, and, described the menu eloquently. By the way, the ablution facilities were clean, which is something most some restaurants overlook and take for granted. The menu prices were fair and affordable hence I will give the establishment an overall rating of 8.5 out of 10. All in all, I enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend for anyone wanting to enjoy a good steak.
First time visiting the Cresta franchise. Staff making you feel welcome and they are very attentive and knows the menu. The food is amazing, tasty and the portions are enormous. Restaurant was very busy, but not lacking in service. Will definitely be back🍷🍷🍷well done to management and staff
The food is fantastic!! The portions are great.
The atmosphere is great.
The only thing is that when we went the service was a bit slow but it got better.
The waiters are very friendly.
For the quality food the price is reasonable.
I tend to come here when it's super busy but at least this time, we pre-booked a table (highly recommended for evening dining).
Service from Naledi was great. Food is super yummy. Their beef ribs are the best I've had in a long time and that BBQ basting, speechless.
The atmosphere was buzzing. It was a busy night.
I absolutely loved it here. The waiter was extremely friendly and we'll informed of the menu and gave us good and appreciated advice on dishes. The fact that the restaurant trains their staff on the different cuts of steak is amazing as well as their apparent knowledge of wine and which dishes complement which bottles. The atmosphere is great and I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who asks.
The menue has been reduced to take into consideration COVID-19 protocols, hygiene cutlery wraps, all staff keep their masks on. This has not stopped them serving succulent tastey and friendly food and service.
The place is always well worth a visit. Usually go there for the burger specials and they never disappoints. Staff is very friendly. Drinks are affordable.
Great steakhouse. Sunday they have a burger special R65.95. Burgers are delicious and you can chose your side....a salad, chips or pap and gravey.....
We had dinner at tnt last night. Our first time. It was amazing! The food was exceptional and was ready a lot quicker than I was expecting. Their service was superb too. Our waiter was a black gentleman and I regret not asking his name (he did mention but I forgot) and he was so professional and friendly. The other gentleman that did the meat slicing deserves the same praise. Thank you very very much!
Excellent service and a warm environment.
I still absolutely love the chicken livers. The bread tasted different but in a good way.
Portion was big and the food very tasty!
