    My Lunch
    John J.

    Food service always good. Been coming here for at least 25 years. Never a bad experience.

    So this was way better than anticipated! We were a large celebratory party and they had the staff to take care of us even though the place was packed. The food was so good! My friend had the steak salad- I never imagined that it would be so full and look so good- that is what I am getting next! I had the burger and it hit the spot. There is enough variety so that there is something to definitely make your mouth happy!

    The owners of this restaurant used to operate one in Tucson, Arizona. We missed it so much that we drove from Tucson to El Paso for our anniversary dinner. We both ordered fish- I got the broiled Haddock dinner and hubby got beer battered fish sandwich with fries. It's still the best coleslaw he's had in his life! I forgot just how good their ranch beans were The owners and staff treated us like family ! It's a very nice relaxing place for 2 to dine or groups! We couldn't find fault the entire evening- it was delicious and delightful!!

    Didn't look like any Burger places I've ever been with...

    You all know my love for (Um Um Good Eats) I didn't plan to come in today but when I saw the sign as "Great American Steakburger", I had to try out-can't miss it and won't miss it Here's my review based on the food I paid in full as long with my stomach, hahaha It seemed a bit odd looking burger house since it didn't have much of "mesquite or hickory" fumes as soon as I opened the door(there were "double doors" and you would be welcomed by "souvenir stand" huh? Almost all tables were occupied (good sign) but mostly moms and kids(not a good sign for good burger joints; no offense but no hunks&no smokes would lead to no good burger) Since this was my first time, i ordered Original Burger with Onion Rings and smoked sausage plates as appetizer - waiter told me that they didn't have a smoker and not much know as "BBQ" - I just wanted to know how on earth they put BBQ ribs, sausage and briskets in the menu without the smoker(I tried for you so you shouldn't order them - no need to thank me lol) I would like to ask the cook to grill the sausage then sliced them to serve - it looked like 1 sliced and 2. Finished in the oven or broiler Too greasy and not much of flavor but extremely salty (evaporated all the juice but sitting in the fat) But I enjoyed the OG steakburger - fresh and crisp vege set - 4 stars worth Onion Rings - Sysco or any food vendor items N/A ; not from the scratch Sauce - N/A ; I don't think not many burger joints make their signature BBQ sauce no more why? Service - very attentive and honest!! Gotta give him 5 stars for sure Clean Restroom- extra 1 point Overall-4 stars Honestly I won't be back this location since there are so many burger places I am hungry for but it is decent "family friendly place to dine in"

    Menu as of March 31st, 2023

    FOOD: Decided to give this place another shot after a horrific food poisoning incident I experienced at the hands of their haddock platter two years ago. (Yes I reached out to the restaurant, and no, no one gave two hoots as no one ever followed up.) This time we decided to go with the steak, because how can they mess it up. I asked for medium and it was definitely NOT medium. It was VERY MUCH rare. SERVICE: The the first server was quite surly ...As nice and empathetic as we were trying to be, the server wasn't having it. Luckily there was a shift change towards the end of our visit, and the new server is the only reason we have any stars on this review. (Second Server gets 5 ) ATMOSPHERE: There seemed to be a service manager that was seating parties that also seemed to not be in great spirits -- the atmosphere was just blah overall. Staff will take their queues from upper management, so if they're in a crappy mood, so will their team. With the multiple steak places in El Paso, we will definitely be taking our hard earned money elsewhere.

    At 59, I'm ticking off a bucket list item. Driving across America. I am currently in El Paso, TX…read morehaving started in Tampa, FL and will end up in Fresno, CA. so, I have been thinking about steak & West Texas Chophouse looks very good. Indeed, they lived up to their Yelp reviews. I had a 20 oz. Bone in Ribeye (the way God intended ) cooked medium with backed potato. I won't be slapping my mother but I will call her later this evening , to sing the praises of this excellent piece of meat. Particularly the char. It is the best I have ever had. If this placed served a dish that consisted of nothing but the end pieces (where they hug the bone) I would have to consider moving here. That char was perfectly blackened & bursting with flavor. The baked potato (which was backed in an oven & NOT microwaved) was very good also. The Alex's Philly Cheesecake was not as good as the steak but it got the job done. I sat at the bar so the service was immediate but the unsweetened tea tasted like I was the second person who drank some all day. This place is large (it has 'Texas' right in the name!) & because you have to do parking lot gymnastics in the full parking lot, I expected a little wait on this hot Sunday afternoon. Happily there was no wait. It has a high barn-like roof that amplifies customers talking to a semi-comfortable background cacophony but the steak was so good I entered into my own little world. The only down side was that the steak & especially the backed potato could have been a little hotter. If I ever wander through these parts again, I will definitely return. 4-stars

The kitchen is sort of open to the restaurant, and the staff sits there and congregate in one particular server was cussing at the kitchen crew and being really loud. It's obvious that they don't prefer singles because the table next to me, a party of six got a lot of attention from the manager seeing how they were doing and I got completely ignored. I got sat next to the meat counter. And look at my food this is a pathetic display of food a tiny overcooked piece of chicken and a popper mashed potatoes no garnish. The gravy was quite bland and in a plastic cup really people you can do better. Who knows maybe I was checking the place out for a party of 50 but I wouldn't bring them here now. Don't treat me like a single invisible person.

    We loved the key lime pie (e.g., photo of pie from night before at Manhattan Heights) at Manhattan…read moreHeights Bar & Grill so much that we ordered it again to go from their sister restaurant, Thirty5ive Bar & Grill, the next day. It became a special treat for our family while visiting our Tía in home hospice--and one of her last, most joyful bites. Food and our family's recipes are at the heart of who we are, so hearing my Tía Emma call it "magnificent" meant everything. While, we didn't dine in, we noted the atmosphere struck the right balance of upscale bar and grill on our two visits. Please note, this place get packed on weekend nights.

Ok no biggie yet my…read morewife pointed out that they do have changing stations for babies in the restroom which is odd. Expectations and reality were nothing alike. As we were seated our waiter took 10 min to great us and then another 12 min to bring our drinks. I didn't think anything of it yet it was a precursor to the rest of our dinner. After he took our order our kids food came out in a very timely fashion but our two orders of salmon and one steak sandwich took 40 min to arrive at the table. What a ridiculous waste of my time because my sandwich was missing the fries ordered and our waiter thought nothing of it till I brought it up then he took another 10 min to bring my fries. All this while simultaneously forgetting the sauce for the salmon which also took another 10 min to bring out. The salmon was so dry it was tacky and stuck to your teeth. If you know the feeling you know it's bad. The rice that came underneath the salmon was crunchy and way undercooked. All while the waiter was like oh I can bring you free deserts for your wait all while I could only think about how I just wanted to leave. I was internally livid and exhausted but kept it to my self after seeing the owner or manager who we the guy with the white hair over at the bar enjoying a few alcoholic beverages meanwhile his restaurants service and waitstaff to the worst possible job they can. I saw the people who got the most attention and good service were all regulars sitting at the bar laughing it up with the manager/owner older guy. Why not make sure your restaurant is running smoothly and food is being delivered and prepared properly and stop trying to impress the regulars who most likely will show up either way. Any restaurant that is this unorganized and unmotivated is due to crappy management. All this and the waiter is like I'll comp you for the steak sandwich with a discount for the bad service and salmon which was a whopping $5. I don't want a discount I don't want free day old desserts I want good service and decent food. Discounts and free desserts will never fix the problem because it will always be a crutch for trashy customer service. How about stop drinking with the guests and whoop that staff into semi decent shape buy some high chairs and make sure your expo does a once over quality check on the food and time it takes to get to the table EVEN if that means stepping in and doing it yourself. The restaurant is dark the tables are sticky the whole place is very compact . Perfect and quite attractive after 5-6 wines for sure. I'm sure the food is outstanding after a few drinks as well . They gave us a $25 dollar gift card to return which if I could I'd give to the owner so he could experience the same horrible food and service we did. I wouldn't even give the gift card to someone I hated. This was one of the first times in a long time I didn't just let it slide because I understand all restaurants and people have bad days but this was exceptionally bad. If you are thinking it can't be that bad think again it absolutely can. The whole "I'm sorry we usually have awesome service and everyone loves our food it's probably just me and my family " is laughable . This isn't my first time here while visiting El Paso. The food is getting worse.

The food was a nice change of pace from traditional El Paso foods. Soul food eggrolls: it was like a big spoonful of granny's Sunday meal without overeating. I'd never put greens, Mac n cheese, and chicken together but somehow it worked. Understandably, it wasn't seasoned like granny's to appease the masses, but the sauce on the side elevated the taste. Shrimp and grits: such a New Orleans feel to it, a much try and f you like the taste of grits. Savory and flavorful. The steak skillet was a heaping serving of deliciousness.

TVs are located throughout, from various table angles. Our server Alex will receive 5/5 stars for his kindness, attentiveness and attention to not only our table but his very full and frequently sat section. However, when reaching out to other staff members for assistance in his absence, there were some things that fell through the cracks. Missing silverware, condiments not being present, and at times things going forgotten or unnoticed when requested. The appetizer (pictured) Philly Egg-rolls, were the best food option we received for brunch that afternoon. It was shareable between 3 adults and filling before the entrees arrived. I wouldn't order the Monte Cristo Sandwhich again, very large, dry and just didn't pair well with the potatoes and the jam offered (pictured). We did have to switch out drinks due to her taste and upkeep up the beverages. The sweet tea originally ordered did not taste well but received new drinks upon request: Mango and Strawberry lemonade. This is a family friendly place, busy, but I would give it another chance.

She got our drink orders wrong and delivered them to the wrong guests. We had to play the matching game by sipping each other's drinks. And she never came by to refill. We had to ask. It took forever for us to order our food. And our food didn't get to us until almost an entire hour after ordering. Ummm that was horrible. We were sitting for almost two hours before food got to us. Two of our orders of steaks were ordered as medium-rare, and our steaks were dry AF. I told the waitress that we wanted a new steak, and she brought back the steak while flashing a flashlight over it to defend her cook, saying it is medium-rare and to look at it again. Never have I ever experienced a flashlight being used over our food to prove a non-valid point. At this point, I was so freakin hungry that I did not want to argue, and so I ate the dry steak. Do yourself a favor and take a drive to Victoria's Steakhouse. We were there a couple of days prior to visiting this restaurant and they have the perfect medium rare steak! Lol I wish that I could compare photos but didn't take any. Don't visit this place. You have been warned by myself and so many other reviews.
