Bill's Steakhouse & Saloon

We tested out Bill's steak house on southwest 89th street today. Our fussbudget eater had given it a thumbs up. Our starter was the fried pickles. Cut spear wise they were juicy, fried to a golden brown, & tasty. The side salads arrived and everyone agreed that they were yummy. The two Fried catfish platters , Bourbon chicken dish, and fried Shrimp basket arrived. We were extremely surprised by the current three star rating on Yelp, and felt it deserved a four star rating. The fried Shrimp basket was great. Cooked perfectly, tasty with a serviceable cocktail sauce. Our two orders of fried catfish received very high marks. Our pickiest eater had the Bourbon chicken and liked it but felt the ratio of peppers to chicken was skewed in favor of the peppers. Our service staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Overall we are giving a solid four stars to Bill's, and recommend it to anyone looking for a quality meal.

My husband and I haven't been to Bill's in a few years but always had great service and the food was always delicious. We decided it sounded good for dinner so we ventured back to the South side - we were not disappointed. The service, food and prices are just as good as they have always been. We decided to get the sampler as an appetizer and o ordered the Friday special, beef tips with green beans and my husband had the 12oz sirloin with onion ringsEverything was fresh and delicious. I think Bill's prepares a-lot of their food from scratch - it doesn't taste like it came straight from the freezer (other than the standard sides that are fried). The chicken strips and potato skins on the sampler, green beans and the entrees all tasted fresh, not frozen. Bill's definitely earns 5 stars in every aspect

Food is great! Service was fast! And the atmosphere is laid back with some neat decorations!

Food was excellent and the service was outstanding,If I'm in that part of town for lunch or dinner you can count me in!

Food was great, service was great. We always enjoy the food and the atmosphere when we go to Bills.

Food is great and at a great price point. Service is always friendly. Ambiance is casual. Drinks are good and specials are priced right. Try the jalapeño margaritas!!

Decided to try this place yesterday around noon,went to the bar and our bartender asked what we would like to drink,I asked if they had a happy hour,she just said no,if it was me. Working for tips,I would have said,no,I'm sorry we don't have a happy hour right now,but we do have some inexpensive options available,and it's not like they were busy,I got the nachos,they were ok,not great,chicken tasted funny,she didn't engage us at all,didn't ask what we had planned for the day or any conversation for that matter,and when it came time for the check,most bartenders/servers that haven't been very good at their job will at least try to make up for it when they drop off the check,like saying,I hope u have a great day,or thank you for coming in today,but no,she dropped it off and said nothing,I give this place a couple years before it goes out of business

I had recommended Bill's in the past, however on my last visit I have to say that the quality has really fallen off. The food seemed precooked. It was just barely warm. I had the catfish and fries all you can eat Thursdays. Maybe it was just a bad day, different cook etc. unfortunately I had taken family from out of town to eat there. It was subpar. The best thing about our visit was the wait staff. Tonya is the best. Thank you for great service.

Our first visit here tonight. We had a large seating party on a Friday night without any reservations so we did have a wait. But that wait was worth it. The rustic setting and signage was entertaining and set a good feel for the restaurant. The server was prompt, friendly and attentive. I had the bourbon chicken and it did not disappoint. The kids enjoyed their catfish, cheeseburger and chicken tenders. The food looked delicious and did not disappoint us. The menu prices online were a bit dated so I'll include some here. The music entertainment was fun too!

Son brought me here for a quick lunch. It was brasied tips say I ordered that, even though I wanted the salad. That stuff was the most flavorless, chewy pieces of meat ever. I don't want to make my son feel bad, because he suggested it, but it was horrible. Should have got the salad.
