Brown Derby Road House

Went here on a weekday night. My family had gone twice before, but this was my first time. Be warned there isn't much for a vegetarian and nothing for a vegan, but it's a steakhouse so no surprise there. The normal dinners on the back of the menu are served with salad, rolls with honey butter, and a choice of potato. I had a portobello mushroom sandwhich with mushrooms, but stole some salad and bread from my family. Be aware the salad comes with bacon normally. The sandwhich and fries needed some seasoning in my opinion. I ended up taking half home so I'll try playing around with seasoning on the burger. The fries had some seasoning, but not much. My family liked their steak and potatoes. One liked his portobello chicken while another felt his was very chewy and rubbery so he didn't finish it. The decor is kind of like a bar, and there is an actual bar as well. Servoce was good with a friendly server, good times, and lots of parking. Overall it was a nice night out.

Took a while to get our salad and rolls. Once our dinner got to the table, all 3 steaks were very undercooked. We sent them back and then were overcooked. Our server was nice but a little slow. The restaurant was clean, and had pleasant holiday music playing.

I stopped in with family for dinner last Wednesday, 29Mar23 ~1640. There were a few tables seated, but not many. I guess all of the restaurants on Lex-Springmill has taken a chunk of their business over the years. We have not visited for 5-6 years as we have been living in SoCal till this January. Walking in and looking around, all look great! No dirty tables, clean floors...just what you want to see! Betty was our server. A wonderful personality who made our visit 4 stars instead of 3! We ordered adult beverages and their Fried Pickles as a starter. Though I was disappointed that they did not carry Knob Creek, the Fried Pickles more than made up for it! Eight pickle quarters fried in a tempura batter that were absolutely delicious! Highly recommended! We ordered our main courses. Two pork chops, filet mignon, and NY Strip. My Mom and her partner had the pork chops with sweet potatoes. They enjoyed their dishes without a complaint. My NY Strip was more rare than medium-rare but I do not have issue with that. My wife's medium-well filet was a different story. It was actually rarer than my steak. We pointed that out to Betty and off she went with my wife's steak. 17 minutes later my wife's steak came back. One half well done and the other half charred. Not sure if the cook was trying to tell us something or not. My wife was able to eat the well done half and left the rest. When the manager came by to ask us how dinner was, we told her in full detail. I was very happy that she took my wife's meal off the check! Thank you! Overall, it was an okay dinner with Betty and the comp making it better. I just think back to my time, in high school, grilling steaks at a local restaurant. It required a little skill but a high schooler was paid to do it. I may be mistaken l, but the person manning the grill seemed much older. We may be back to give them another shot. If you decide to go, make sure you ask for Betty, she does a great job!

The portion sizes and prices are likely what keeps people coming back. The server was friendly and the food service expedient. Great country music, though the deer heads watching us eat need a dusting :)

This is my local go to for special occasions. Usually get the wild bill steak. The mushroom and blooming onion for appetizers. And the big bowl of salad.I always leave with leftovers.

Looks like a roadside bar and grill however so much more. When you walk in there is so much to look at on the walls and rafters. Not only do they wood fire all of the steaks, you can choose your cut. The servings are generous. I forgot to take a picture of our food but have posted my amber beer and the leftovers from sharing the 14 oz Ribeye with my husband. The rolls and butter are served warm The salad is refillable (endless)Ribeye and sweet potato were perfectly cooked

Food was out of this world and cooked to perfection. Service was great as well, absolutely no complaints will be back

Good wings, ribs and steaks. Reason prices. Service is fast and efficient. Wait times aren't usually long

Our server was great! A good option in Mansfield if you want to avoid chains. Many different options provided.

Great food and service, we had an excellent meal. We both had a steak dinner with sides and were very pleased.
