As soon as you walk in it feels like home. Reminding me of diners that are long gone. Each day they have a special that doesn't break the bank. Service top notch by servers who care about you and the food they serve. Super stoked I had the opportunity to stop by. The BLT and homemade fries were so good. Next time I'll stop by for a daily special may be come everyday for a week of daily specials. read more

Extremely mid food, the ambiance is a little offsetting for sure. Very strange area, weird part of Garland for sure. The staff was very welcoming and helpful, the food was okay, not super fresh and pretty oily/greasy. The veggies were not very fresh, plenty of food for the price. read more

Great food! Homestyle comfort food! Always good and dependable. Grilled Chicken Salad is exceptional!

My Lady, who enjoys a Chicken Fried Steak, and I eat here regularly. We have had the Babes CFS and the "World Famous" Best CFS in Dallas produced at the Cowboy Cafe in Blue Ridge as well as several other places. We have found that the Chicken Fried Steak at Beef House superior. The food is plentiful and nicely priced and the other items on the menu are very good. This is a kind of old fashioned family eating house. Not Black Tie. A great experience for Seniors. We will grace their table again regularly. read more

Dinner delivered and it was delicious!! Items were a generous proportion and arrived hot! Definitely will order again!

First time visit. Underwhelming!! Went on Wednesday for the fried chicken. My chicken was missing both the skin and breading. No... it didn't come off after cooking. It was fried that way! So the cook obviously felt it OK to give me deep-fried butt naked chicken, and the server had to have seen it, and obviously felt it OK to give me deep-fried butt naked chicken. Dry AF!! No seasoning. Green beans had to be canned... no flavor at all. Mac and cheese was watery cheese and mac. No flavor. My wife hated her meal. We won't be back for sure! read more

The Beef House is not far from our house. If it hadn't been for Yelp I would still have no clue it was there. Walking in you get the impression you've stepped back a few years. It is a place to get a solid meal. The utensils were of low quality but served their purpose. We both got a kick out of the mismatched coffee mugs. That one fact may have defined Beef House best. I got the steak and Tish got the CFS. The steak was on the tough side but tasty. Tish was impressed that the CFS wasn't all breading. I can't comment as I didn't taste it myself. Tish seemed happy enough. The eggs and hash browns were 100% American Cafe. They were perfect. The coffee--I think it was Community coffee, but, I'm not positive. It was good and the refills were always on time. Wait staff--pleasant, polite, as well as, there when you needed them. read more

We read about Beef House on Garland Foodie and thought we would give it a try. Oh no wish we had not. Old diner might have been amazing back in the day. There was nothing outstanding barely good. I went with a pancake and then shared Tiki Hubby CFS breakfast. Main disappointment was the pre processed meat patty hard as a rock instead of the promised hand batter CFS, followed by the burnt topped cold biscuits and floating in grease hash browns, It was easy to leave most of the meal behind. Gave it a 3 star as waitress was amazingly fun sarcastic. read more

Beef House - The Kitchen - Diners Near Me - Garland, Texas

Heard and read mixed reviews about the food, service and ambiance. I prefer to and am willing to risk it for myself. Popped in for a late lunch/breakfast. It's definitely old school and I love that. On the back side of a once bustling neighborhood shopping center. Could almost mistake it for vacant! Has the coolest sign I must mention. Mostly older folks there which means they are lifers! Ordered rib eye and eggs. Son ordered pork chops and eggs. We were pleasantly surprised with the quality and portion size! Cooked nicely and came out hot and fresh. Waitress was super sweet and attentive. Owner came by for a quick check up and asked if everything was cool. You don't get that anymore except for joints like this. It's affordable and delicious! It's no Michelin star restaurant. It's old school just the way we like it! We will be back! read more

this is a great diner with some great atmosphere. It's got good food at good prices. don't miss it.

Comfortable, clean, old school diner. Dinner from the past. It's a good place to relax and eat. The service is fast and friendly, like it used to be. The food is good from the 80s. Simple and good. Not many places like it. read more

I have been ordering from this place via Uber Eats for probably a year now. I usually get either the pork chops dinner, chicken salad or enchilada plate. I must say for the prices, you get a decent amount of good food. The only real complaint I has is that the chicken salad has gone up about 3 bucks in the past year, so I no longer order it. read more

Real home cooking. Our first visit here and we were very pleased. The menu had all your basic food options which is great. Food was generous portions, hot, and flavorful! Staff were attentive and nice. The prices are extremely budget friendly. The seating is booth or table. They are open 24/7. I highly recommend giving them a try! read more

Beef House - Diners Near Me - Garland, Texas

A true gem of a diner that I thought only existed in yesteryear! It's obvious a few of the other reviewers here completely missed what this restaurant is about. Fine dining it is not. Gourmet steakhouse it is not. Hole-in-the-Wall? Greasy Spoon? Mom & Pop Diner? Yes, yes, and yes! My wife and I just visited for the first time and will be back. She is pregnant and was craving the calf liver and onions with brown gravy and fried okra. I had the chicken fried steak with pinto beans and green beans. We shared plates and both were amazing--the liver and onions were the best I've ever had (sorry Mom!). Based on what I saw the other customers enjoying, I'm looking forward to trying the meatloaf, fried catfish, chicken and dumplins, and half-pound burger. I'm also wanting to try their steak and eggs. The pricing was remarkably affordable. The owner was visible our entire visit. Our waitress was very attentive, friendly, and kept our glasses topped up with crisp iced tea. As another reviewer mentioned most patrons seemed to know each other and the owner. I thought this kind of place had died off in the 80's--I'm glad to say I was wrong! read more

This place is soooo good!!! We love pot roast Sunday. Never judge a book by its cover. If you love made from scratch food you will love this place!! read more

I don't understand all these glowing reviews. Because of them, a friend and I went there for dinner. My chicken fried steak, fried okra, and my friend's chicken fried chicken were obviously just pre-prepared frozen items that had been tossed in the fryer. Our green beans were bland and clearly right out of a can. The rolls and cornbread were dry and hard. The only thing that was rather good was the mashed potatoes. Not only that, but the place is shabby, and desperately in need of updating. That would be forgivable if the food were better. read more

Old school diner that's been around for decades - CHECK! It's not fancy inside, and that's just fine with me! The FOOD is what's all about! HANDS DOWN ONE OF THE BEST BREAKFAST JOINTS IN ALL OF DFW! Do yourself a favor and come on Wednesday for the fried chicken special.. You will be back again for it... I promise! I'll let the photos below attest! And the sweetest waitresses in town! Stop on in! You won't regret it! AND THEY ARE OPEN FOR DINE IN SERVICE AGAIN AFTER THIS COVID-19 CRAP!!! YES!!! read more

Love coming here for breakfast. The place is very clean, old school type feel for the place. The service is always a 10, and they always have good deals. I usually come here once or twice a week. Highly recommended. read more

Ordered this off of Uber eats not expecting much. Was wowed!!! Bacon bacon bacon!!! You get the crispy parts of the meat equaled with the tenderness of the fatty parts. Bacon is usually hard all over(over cooked) or limp ( under cooked). Also had a waffle and eggs over medium. Both were equally delicious but it is harder to get those wrong. Waffle absorbed the butter and syrup as it should and the egg was light and fluffy. Very happy. read more

It's the best old diner in north Texas. My fav: Chicken fried steak and french fries. The fries are fresh cut that morning. Enchilada dinner text me back to the old days of ponchos or LePhoenix in the 1970s with those hot ass metal plates read more

Definitely not worth it! Order 2 ribeye steaks and 1 New York strip but all were exactly the same steak. And they all looked like they had sat in water. No flavor at all! Not even salt. I gave 2 stars because my fiancé said the mashed potatoes were at least edible. Coleslaw tasted weird. Chili in chili cheese fries tasted old. They didn't have my mother's order chicken fried chicken. So they just left it out. No notifications or refund as of yet. I was very disappointed from the reviews. Maybe they are more a breakfast place because dinner was terrible! read more

Hometown favorite! The best burgers and hand cut French fries around! Onion rings!!! I'm the onion rings are also hand cut and fried right there. Great breakfasts and it has been totally non-smoking for years now. The people running this place are awesome. All around great food, people and pure comfort food! read more

The omelette was made from scratch, the chicken fried chicken/steak was obviously frozen and the mashed potatoes were instant... might go back for breakfast. read more

Beef House (hereinafter referred to as "this place") is a classic. It's been around since the early 50's, and it would seem that many of the regular clientele have been coming to Beef House since then! And that's not without several good reasons. My good friend Ples and I first hit this place a couple of months ago after our regular Friday night skate over at White Rock Skate Center. We were looking for a good substitute for our usual post-skate IHOP haunt, which is a bit farther away in Richardson. He had a vague recollection of some 24/7/365 place in Garland and we started checking Google. The rest is history. The first time we walked into this place, the regulars sitting at other tables started talking to us and asking us about ourselves. We immediately felt like we were in a very unique situation and had made a bunch of new friends just by virtue of our having discovered this place. We got pretty lucky our first time, too, considering that Havan, our waitress, was there late at night only as a fluke. She is usually there only during days. The level of service and the friendly attitude of this lady are unparalleled at just about any other restaurant I have ever populated. If you have a favorite sister who thinks you are the best sibling in the world, that's what it was like having her as our waitress. Another huge point in favor! Coming in the front door, we saw a sign for the "Manager's Special". $9.99 for a steak and two sides. I knew that I'd be getting the Manager's Special that night. You have a choice of rib eye, T-bone or New York strip. I am a consummate rib eye man, so that's what I ordered. RARE! My two sides were hash browns and a side salad. They don't do fountain drinks here. You get sodie pop by the can. Or you get water, iced tea, coffee or hot chocolate... standard diner fare. So I typically get tea for the free refillability factor. That's important after a hard roller skate, because I am always very thirsty and can completely chug whatever it is I'm drinking for the next two hours. Then there are rolls, cornbread or biscuits for your bread. The food is great and never frozen, and in many cases is made from scratch. Yet another point. An internet-based jukebox sits in one corner and plays anything from 70's classic rock hits to country. The specials of the day are displayed on large signs over the back counter. The place is decorated with a hodgepodge of items that have been collecting over the decades. One thing you really need to know about this place... it's smoker friendly!! Now, I'm not a smoker; never have been. Do I enjoy the fact that you can go to Dallas restaurants and bars and not have to gag all night, and then come out smelling like hell? YES! BUT... at the same time, I am a freedom-minded individual. I believe in the right of businesses to determine whether they will allow smoking or not. If you don't like smoking, then you don't go to that business, right? Fair enough! So Beef House takes you back in time to when this was the rule. It's usually not too smoky in here, and even if it is, I'm willing to tolerate it because I'm not a big wuss! Ples IS a smoker, so he can enjoy having a smoke with his meal at this place while everywhere else he is treated like a pariah. Score another point for liberty! By the way, they DO have a non-smoking section as required by law in Garland. That section consists of one tiny table and a pair of chairs in the entrance airlock! While it's very comical, it satisfies their legal requirement, and yet another sign on the door declares this to be the case. Just another unique aspect of this place. In summing up, I've been to Beef House at least a dozen times since discovering it. I always get the same order. We have met about 5 different waitresses and know them by name. I was there with my good friend and choir director JoyfulUnit one day. Havan was our waitress. JU had a broken wrist and thus was immobilized by a partial arm cast. Havan actually cut up her steak and fed it to her! It was the most hilarious thing I've ever seen. I don't think I have seen that anywhere else. I have pictures of this which you can see here. Ever since then, I have referred to Havan as the Mom of Waitresses. She really loves what she does and she loves the customers. Everyone at Beef House loves being there. Usually, there's loud laughter and conversation going on at many of the tables, so you can cut loose and really be yourself there, even if you are obnoxious. :-) When we walk in, we shout out a hello to everyone, and when we walk out, we shout out a goodbye. The shouts are returned in both cases because everyone is so friendly. Now, don't get me wrong, this place doesn't get 5 stars because it's swanky. It's for a great many other reasons that make it special. You are free to disagree, but I love Beef House! read more
