Ribs & Burgers Menlyn Maine

We had a change to visit this restaurant as part of Restaurant Week, we selected this venue as I personally love Burgers, and just not have had the opportunity to try them.
Their Restaurant Week menu offered a 3 course lunch menu of starters (2 Salads), mains (3 Burgers) and a desert (one of their regular menu – choice of 3).
For starters we selected one of each they had on offer.
The Brown Rice u0026 Quinoa Salad was freshly made however very bland (having had plenty of these before which were a lot tastier at other restaurants -and including my own home made version).
The Beetroot u0026 Feta Salad was definitely the star of our visit – the combination of the salty feta, sweet walnuts u0026 earthy beetroot a beautiful combo with the spicy rocket leaves and touches of balsamic glaze.
For mains we tried their Southern Fried Chicken Burger and Bacon u0026 Cheese Burger.
Southern Fried Chicken Burger – The southern spices on the chicken breast were good however the deep-fried crust was very oily.
Bacon u0026 Cheese Burger – The patty was under seasoned and bland.
Both burgers were served with “American cheese” which I personally think tastes of nothing (what's wrong with good old SA Cheddar?) and were served on top of a sesame seasoned “brioche” bun which unfortunately seemed a waist of effort as the buns ended up tasting like every other supermarket variety.
During our meal, one of the waitresses approached our table and tried to apologise as they had seemed to run out of deserts - which were part of the Restaurant Week menu offering (!?!) and offered to give us either espressos or milkshakes instead.
We opted for the espressos however could not believe that an eatery could not have one desert available for their patrons – really? And they were half full by the time we left as well....
The nice, friendly service would unfortunately not compel us to try their underwhelming food at this restaurant again nor recommend it.

I enjoyed the bustling vibe that has been created in menlyn maine. This restaurant has exceptional service and quality fresh produce. One can arrange for your birthday party ???? to be held here as well because the staff have you covered! There are also many meal options available.

@ribsandburgersza strives to keep it real. In a world of fast elaborate food fads that come and go, they are all about the basics of taste and quality, done beautifully!! ???? I visited the new branch in The Neighborhood Square and I can’t recommend it enough. They also have branches in Brisbane u0026 Las Vegas!

The description of the Ribs u0026 Burgers Veggie Stack from their menu and website is as follows:
Veggie Stack 89
Once upon a time there was a meatless patty that longed to be loved like its meaty step-patties. It knew that it was just as worthy, and just as tasty – all it wanted was a chance. Grilled giant mushroom, Spanish onion, deep fried halloumi, lettuce, tomato, crispy onion rings and aïoli.

We had problems once before ordering this poor burger " that just wants to be worthy," as there was almost no mushroom on it, but hey, they've had a revamp at Menlyn Maine and everyone deserves another chance so we called in and ordered two of these for collection. Sadly we once again were subjected to 2 tiny mushrooms, ( not the giant mushroom advertised) three bits of crispy onion rings and a mess of a squirt of aioli. To complete this, a pack of dry refried fries. Honestly Ribs u0026 Burgers this really was not WORTHwhile. Either stop misleading people with your fake descriptions and images of this burger, and produce it as described, or have some integrity and remove it from the menu.

The burgers are really good and there’s so many options to pick from. The burger was so filling, I regretted ordering chips. It was packed when I visited so service was a bit slow. But I really enjoyed the burger.

Just from the outset, Im not someone who gives very many 5 stars but this place deserves it.

I took my girlfriend here for her birthday and I was hoping it would be an amazing experience.

Service and Setting

From the time we walked in, we were greeted with a smile and shown to our seats.

I like a nice quiet and neat place and this place was perfect. Great almosphere.

Throughout the evening, the staff and management constantly checked if we were fine. Enough was the lady who served us and her attitude was so refreshing and she served us timeously and with a smile the entire evening.

Food

We ordered the Wagyu Truffle and Cheese Burger and I have to say this was the BEST burger I've ever eaten... Juicy and yummy. My gf had the same meal and the level of consistency is great to see with both meals done really well and the meals were served so quickly that we didnt even notice the wait.

I ordered the Cookies and Cream milkshake and it was really yummy. Next time Im going to try the Peanut Butter milkshake ????

Value

Best value for money for High quality and yummy food!!!

Will definitely visit again!

This place never disappoints... Great service and value... Excellent food quality and taste... This should be the gold standard that other restaurants should aim to emulate... Well done the management!!!
