The 2016 finalists, in alphabetical order, are:
This judges’ round during May is a steak showdown during which a team of expert judges, led by Pete Goffe-Wood, well-known MasterChef judge, visit the Top 20 to test the field. The steakhouses don't know when the judges will arrive and each will be assessed on a score-sheet that's designed to separate the good from the great – looking at the total experience but focussing on the quality of the steak.
The big reveal will take place at the Awards Ceremony on 21 June at the current Steakhouse Champion, Little Havana in Umhlanga Rocks, where The Wolftrap Steakhouse Champion for 2016 will be announced.
Steak is a South African passion and the steakhouse is our favourite national restaurant. The Wolftrap Steakhouse Championships is now in its fourth year.
Previous winners are: The Local Grill, Parktown North (2013 and 2014); and Little Havana, Umhlanga Rocks (2015).
