"By far one of the best steaks I had the pleasure of devouring during my visit to Joburg. The fried onions along with the fries is just amazing! I was dared to try chicken liver and to be honest it was not bad at all. I throughly enjoyed my experience and went back for another visit! I was very happy with the service."

"Despite fordsburg becoming much less popular over the last decade , Spur never fails to deliver excellent service from its staff and of course , food that's even better. My usual is the mushrooms starter with a lazy 500g fillet.. always hits the spot."
