Mustang Sally Steakhouse will strive to be the leading buffet restaurant in the local marketplace. We want our guests to have the ultimate dining experience when visiting Mustang Sally’s Steakhouse. Not only will our guests receive a great meal, they will also experience an exciting atmosphere every time they enter the restaurant. We will be doing unique things (such as serving all-you-can-eat choice grass-fed sirloin steaks which are grilled on the spot by barbecue chefs) that will set us apart from the competition. We will ensure that the dining experience to is as pleasing to the senses as it is to the palate.

Our focus will be serving quality food at great value. We will feature a large selection of freshly prepared food, mostly in full view of our guests. We will feature over 100 items daily that are full of flavour and come from a range of different cuisines from around the world.

Customer satisfaction is our number one priority. We will strive to satisfy even the most demanding customers and food critics. We aim to be the first choice for adults and children, families and couples, friends, and colleagues. We will also be in the ideal location to hold corporate functions, conferences, and business meetings.

We will value our staff as our number one resource. We will promote a happy and safe working environment. We will reward our employees for their contributions, and they will reap the benefits of our success. We will combine delightful dishes, a fun atmosphere, and friendly personnel to create a complete and unique restaurant encounter to reach our goal of over-all value in the dining/entertainment experience.
