Well, there is definitely nothing that comes to mind where I can critique this restaurant.

The management and staff are great. The food is always scrumptious.

They have indoor and outdoor smoking and non smoking areas.

It’s a great atmosphere for after work drinks during the week (especially a Friday) and if you’re wanting something quieter their inside dining hall is just the spot.

The Baron has been around for roughly 25 years and is honestly superior to restaurants that fall in this category.
With a motto like "nothing is too much trouble" it makes you wonder... So let's see what trouble they got into or not...being renowned for serving only the highest quality food and prepared under strict quality control standards let's test and see the results.

The test- 3 out of the 5 Baron branches, as I mentioned before... I love my steak.
The Baron has branches in Bedfordview, Bryanston Fourways, Sandown and Kyalami.

1. The Baron in Bryanston:

Sadly here I was met with disappointment. The steak had a funny smell to it, it was just awful.
Needless to say I did not eat it, had the waiter asked why I didn't eat my steak... I would have explained.
However I believe that any restaurant can have an off day. Alas I tried Bryanston again and sadly it happened again....No more eating here for me.
However I do pop in once in a while for a drink as I love the vibe there, but eating is a NO!

2. The Baron Sandown is amazing... food fantastic and atmosphere was wonderful.
The staff are very pleasant... food was excellent.
This franchise was the mind changer on my steak.

Then one Sunday afternoon I decided to pop into Kyalami Corner Centre for lunch. It was during the festive season.
Everyone had a special and I was just so undecided.
I took the escalator up to the first floor and there was a Baron across the parking lot.

Ok honestly I'm a big entertainer app fan and being wise with money I want to score as much with every penny I have. Well especially when my beer bill is almost equal to my meal bill.

I love relaxing, chilling... chatting to the staff, and if I'm lucky to get a manager to chat to that's a huge bonus.

3. The Baron Kyalami, the waiters were super friendly and the manager walked to every table to chat to the patrons. This was fantastic. Gosh I can't remember the managers name at this Baron but he was awesome.
Alas after chatting to him for a while...I could see how passionate he was about the Baron and his biggest wish was to own one.
Being an Ex.Banker I explained to him what the requirements were for bank finance. Sadly he just smiled and said "I will never qualify as I have nothing but experience... years of experience in The Baron group."
The passion in his eyes was incredible, oops a bit side tracked, but on with my review.

On with the meal, remember the Entertainer App so here were my two dishes:

Chicken Tikka Masala

This is apparently a very popular dish because everyone is banting, the banting choice is it's served with cauli-rice. That be my crowd; the banting patrons; so naturally this was my choice.
It was a perfectly sized meal, not too much and not too little. Guess that helps when you banting.

The suprise was meal number two, Yip my dinner:

Oxtail

Braised oxtail in Red Wine and Port with garlic, baby onions and carrots served with mash potatoes.
All I can say is wow wow wow, this dish was just incredible.
Guess I should tell you how to pack it as a Take- Away...
Don't let them do it haha... habit.

When eating this dish pour the oxtail, baby onions, carrots and sauce over the mash... WOW.
This meal just melts in your mouth, it was beyond incredible... So much so, I'm definitely going back for more haha two more.

This is a stunning venue, it's just so incredible. The views of Kyalami are amazing... a definite intimate venue. Valentine's day written all over it... very romantic and personal.

Now I just need to bring myself to try the steak again ;-(
