To whom it may concern - if it concerns anyone at all

There is a steers close to the pietermaritzburg off ramp in a total garage - get this - the pietermaritzburg offramp - about 2-3 k's down to the right - total garage on both sides — # steers to the left.

Time: 10h00 saturday morning december 1 2007

Upon arrival I was told that I would be attended to shortly - another customer already waiting. the waitress / manageress then calmly continued to wrap another 4 sets of cutlery with a paper napkin before asking us for our orders. she really gave the impression that she did not want to be there at all.

We then proceeded to the toilets - me to a dark men’s toilet with the lights out of order - and my wife to a washroom full of flies.

When I reentered the restaurant I started looking for a clean table. I could not find one - I eventually found the chef and asked him for a cloth. he came and wiped a table down for us.

Whilst waiting for the food I noticed that the place has not been swept or cleaned either. some flies were enjoying the dirty tables.

The cutlery arrived first - all neatly wrapped. there was some green gunk stuck to the inside of my fork. the waitress looked interestingly at me while I proceeded to try and clean it with the napkin dipped in fanta orange. ended up eating the burger with my hand.

Our burgers arrived and being hungry - we started eating. I then realized that there were no condiments. I went to the counter and found the two big dispensers to be empty and their nozzles filthy. the mayo container manage to gurgle up a spurt on my arm. the head seemed to be loose.

The waitress then brought us some more empty and dirty condiment bottles. at least the tomato sauce had some in.

I then realized that my schalk burger meal looked nothing like the picture. on closer inspection I realized that the burger patties were obviously from last night. al flat and cold. tasting of old barbecue fat. thinking back I now realized that the grill had not been fired up yet.

We ate what we could. my wife “the coffee lover” did not even drink half her coffee. said it tasted like dish water.

We left without saying a word. because by now they were getting busy.

Maybe I should have said something. maybe i'm the only one with a runny stomach this morning. may you would like to feature a video of me running to the toilet on the home page of this website.

Please don't offer me any free food at steers since you won’t be seeing me for a long time. please don’t tell me to excuse this because it was early in the morning.

Not so kind regards,

Johan grobler

This is now the third time I have come to the steers at cape town international airport and they don't have what I ordered. Or would like to order.

It's a Friday evening. All I would like a milk shake. That's it...

On our way to Pta from Klerksdorp we ordered burger meal. To our surprise both burgers had tomato sauce and mustard sauce. We laughed it off until we had to eat our chips. Burned and looked love yesterdays. We were so disappointed as this was the first time we experience dissatisfaction at a steers branch.

Good day

I have found a plastic object in my milkshake and pieces of plastic in my shake. Accidentally swallowed some of it and then vomited all my food up because of it. See attached. This is dangerous and very careless to say the least! I am still suck and concerned that I might have interal damages!

What are you going to do about this?

I went to steers in walker drive, port elizabeth yesterday and was extremely disappointed that the hero rolls looked nothing like the picture. It was on a hot dog roll which if I had known, I would have never bought. Its something I could have made at home myself.

Me and my friend went to go buy ×2 Rib Burgers on the 6 September 2018 just after 1pm at Steers Golden Acre. Both our rib patties were raw and our appetite were completely spoiled after a few bites. We could not return the burgers because it was during our lunch hour which took up most of our time to go to. Pictures attached.

Hi,

I ordered on sunday and they said they don't have my order and asked them to cancel. I then decided to order something else and they called and said they don't deliver where I stay however on the website it says they deliver and have to pay R15 for delivery. I need my money since I didn't receive my order.

Your service at Tokai western cape branch was pathetic. Staff arguing with me around other clients and want to make clever remarks. I'll never spend another cent of my money with your business, I'll rather go to KFC and McDonald's.

Its been an hour an a half and I still have not received my food. This is not the first time this happens. Driver gives the manager the fault and the manager the driver. Steers has been going downhill with delivering food the past 6 months. This is becoming really a big problem lately. I will not support Steers Kuruman EVER again!

I bought 6 patties today, steers 100% beef patties, what a oily fattie desaster

You guys must advertise Steers 30% fat and oil and the rest beef, and patties shrink by 30% after grilled

We purchased 2 chicken burgers, 1 cheeseburger and 3 small chips from Steers at Cresta Mall on the evening of 6 August 2019. The chips were revolting and tasted of old, stale oil. The cheeseburger consisted of a patty on a bun - no cheese, garnish or mayo! This was disappointing and definitely not up to usual standards.

I was not happy with the product that I recieved as I had only 1 slice of a small potion of tomato and no luttuce. The employees where busy preparing for tomorrows special and did not care for thier customers. I am an unhappy customer and do not think I will be purchasing a product from sunnypark steers as they have made me unhappy and unwelcome.

I perched one of your Tex milkshakes today ended up throwing it away because I was unable to drink it due to the fact that both paper straws the large and the extra large straws that were supplied with the shake where inadequate to use. You obviously have not tested the straws with you shakes.
