The final five steakhouses for 2014 (in alphabetical order):
The judges visited all five finalists multiple times during June and while these five are South Africa's favourites for 2014, when it came to judging, two of the five, both in Gauteng, stood out above the rest: Parktown North's The Local Grill and Centurion's The Godfather.
Ultimately, it was The Local Grill's expertise in all matters meat, consistent service and accurate grilling that makes them, for the second year in a row, South Africa's Steakhouse Champion, with The Godfather in Centurion as the worthy runner-up.
