Steak House Restaurant

I have been here many times. I have read the other reviews. I don't get it.This is an "old school wonderful" restaurant in Fort Stockton. The food is consistently great, period. It does not matter what I have, it is always tasty and prepared well. Today I had the shrimp and the other in my party had the chicken fried steak. Both dishes were prepared well and they tasted good.Are you looking for your plate to look like it was prepared by a French chef? This is not the place. Are you looking for good food at a fair price? This IS the place. The inside is old, yes...just like the rest of the buildings in the town. Lovely murals with Fort Stockton history are painted all over the inside--and they are freshly updated. Make sure your kids pick out all the road runners hidden in them. It's a Fort Stockton thing! Don't believe the naysayers...this is good food. This is good value. Service is usually good--but these days you get what you get. Be happy you have a server and that they are polite to you! A great stop off the highway--or at least it is for us all the time!

Was looking for somewhere to eat after my trip from California on my way to Houston, and this place popped on my phone. It looks like a family own nor sure, but the personal there seem to know almost everyone walking in, which gives it a homelike vibe. The macaroni tomato soup was delicious. I got two plates. The place itself is a little outdated from the outside, but don't let that fool you. That's usually how it is up there. Prices are fare. The most expensive thing is the stake, but nothing outrageous. It was good as well, so most definitely would pay for it. Try to pay in cash. Otherwise, their debt card system is super slow. Overall, I will go back.

Great breakfast. Service was fast and very friendly. Love the murals. Feels very West Texas.

The steak fingers are the thing to get! Trust me. I'm more of a chicken tender girl, but the steak fingers with brown gravy is where it's at. This place is a tad pricey, but oh so worth it.

I'm not certain what the neg-rep folks on here were expecting. This is NOT an upscale, celebrity chef, Gordon Ramsey restaurant. It is a cafe, run by locals, serving locals, who want a good value. Their daily specials are just that, a very good value. I've had their catfish on Fridays, and their breakfasts, and I've never felt like I was getting screwed. Is the building old? Hell, yes, just like most of Fort Stockton. (The town is 150 years old, BTW.) If you can't handle a local diner with reasonably priced food, then please stay in NYC. (We don't even have a Starbucks in Fort Stockton, so I don't know why you would expect The Ritz as a dining option out here.)

Food was fresh and delicious. Great service, friendly waitstaff a must visit. Highly recommended

We were traveling across Texas and stopped in Fort Stockton overnight. When we looked for a place to go for breakfast this restaurant was recommended to us by the lady at the hotel. It was a tremendously good recommendation! When I asked the waitress to make a special dish for me with tomatoes and chorizo and eggs and beans she said no problem and the food came out quickly and tasted wonderful! I would go out of my way to stop here again when traveling.

A great find! We had a super breakfast, great service, and spotless. Apparently just changed ownership a year ago!

Great Food and great service. We had the rib eye steak and Caesar salad. Compliments to the chefThe bar Tender wasn't very cordial. My gin and tonic had no seltzer in the tonic. Had to send it back. Sorry

I was driving through town and was really wanting a steak. I saw steak written on the outside of the building and decided to stop. This place may not be the most beautiful on the street but it is very clean and the food is to die for. My steak (8 oz ribeye) was cooked and flavored to perfection. Steak sauce would have ruined it. My baked potato was baked, fluffy and the perfect temperature. They had real butter and real cheddar cheese. My salad was cold and crisp. Just when I thought I was done I was offered dessert. I don't know what these things are called on the menu but they should be called sweet, yummy buns from heaven. Huge with pecans. These things are special and made with love. They can put Cinnabon out of business. The staff were kind and helpful. The whole experience was a delight for me.
