    Our waitress was very nice and friendly, but overall our experience at Greer's Ranch Café was disappointing. I ordered an espresso martini -- should've known better -- it wasn't good. The food was pretty bland, especially the mac and cheese. The fried green tomatoes were heavily battered in cornmeal, which just wasn't my taste. One of our friends had to send her steak back twice -- the first time it was overcooked, the second time undercooked, and even after that, it still wasn't quite right. At that point, we just kept it. It honestly seemed like the cook was having a rough day. Friendly service, but the food definitely missed the mark for us.

    Salad and cornbread
    Dave B.

    I love eating downtown in any small town, Texas. They tend to have some great hidden gem restaurants. This was no exception. The chicken fried steak was done quite well and not overly salted. Homemade cornbread with plenty of butter and honey. Fried green tomatoes that were properly breaded. The atmosphere was surprisingly modern and comfortable. This place should've been way busier on a Tuesday night.

    Juiciest, most tender pork chop I've ever had no doubt. Aubrey was impeccably cordial & service-oriented with genuine care, so that made the meal go super smooth. She helped me whittle down the most appetizing gluten-free choices & I must say I left wishing I could come back more often since I live 2 hours from Stephenville. My bar seat was comfortable, but I do wish those patrons that came in after me were a little more social as I tried to be. Restrooms were clean & decent, easily accessible. Years ago, my wife & I dined here & I remember it was a great meal then too. Greer's is definitely a staple for this town & it's clear the they're proud of it. Quality food & service cement that fact.

    Great breakfast yesterday with my "better half". We try to grab at least one meal here each time we visit the area. Thanks again y'all!

    The wife and I have been here several times for Sunday breakfast and regardless of attendance size, the food has always been hot and well prepared. The service remains "spot on" as well ...and if you're a "Bloody Mary Brunch" type, alcohol begins being served at 10:00. I highly recommend Greer's!!!

    A great salad! The homemade Honey Mustard dressing rocks!
    Garry H.

    Actually, 3.5 stars. My brother and I were in Stephenville for a magnificent Jake & Dorothy's CFS. Closed on Wednesday! NO! I had heard of Greer's and seen it on tv. Off we went. We started with the house salad and homemade honey mustard dressing. Fantastic! An excellent salad. The honey mustard dressing is a star! Next came CFS, loaded baked potato, and fried green tomatoes. The loaded baked potato was excellent. My first time to try fried green tomatoes. They were ok. Let me say that I'm a CFS snob. It's either great or just average. This one was average. Nothing wrong with it, just didn't ring my bell. The restaurant is very nice, and the staff was very friendly. We will be back to try something else.

    Our combined family of eleven was traveling in three vehicles back to Nebraska from Austin, Texas. Our first stop of the day was in the picturesque little town of Stephensville, Texas. It's the home of Tarleton State University and the County Seat of Erath County. It's full of history, culture, and charm. You can tell it's a town that cares about itself and those who visit there. Greer's Ranch Cafe epitomized this community - historical, friendly, and welcoming! We were greeted and seated quickly, despite our parties large size. We had six kids in our group and our server quickly focused on taking care of them (which always pleases the adults in the party!). Their menu is best described as homemade comfort food with a unique flair. And it's a BIG menu with a wide variety of Breakfast, Appetizer, Soup, Salad, Hamburger, Sandwich, Main Course Entrees, and House Favorites. We tried the Deep Fried Deviled Eggs - their own creation. They were interesting. I wouldn't rate them as exceptional, but they were good. I'll rate a few of the orders our group had based on their feedback, including mine. Two of the kids ordered the Jumbo Hot Dog from the Kids Menu. This marked the first time I've ever seen a hot dog served on a fresh homemade bun with hand-cut fries. They were both excellent. The special of the day was a Breaded Buffalo Chicken Breast with Onion Rings - another big hit with the group! The Stuffed Tomato Salad was delicious and beautifully plated and presented. It was served with a Fresh Made Chicken Salad in an Open Tomato with Celery, Carrot, and Hard Boiled Egg. My selection was the 1/2 LB Certified Angus Hamburger on a Homemade Bun with Lettuce, Tomato, Pickle and Grilled Onions along with Hand-Cut Fries. The burger was cooked to perfection, the bun was very fresh and tasty, and the hand-cut fries were exceptionally well prepared - something other restaurants sometimes struggle to do. The owner stopped by our table and visited with us, welcoming us to Greer's and to Stephensville. He shared stories of their history, of the annual rodeo - a major event in Stephensville (attended once by Gordon Ramsay - whose entourage Greer's fed) and the impact of the college. Before we left he came back to the table with frozen popsicles for all of the kids! To sum it all up, our food and our experience were all very enjoyable! Greer's is an institution in Stephensville and it's easy to see why.

    A great stop on the town square for a lunch on the way from Dallas to Fredricksburg. AHH - the A/C was being cranked out and I LOVED it, nice and cold inside. If you are cold sensitive, bring a sweater. Makenna was our server and she was helpful, fast and attentive. We shared a chicken fried chicken sandwich and a fried green tomato stack with fresh mozzarella cheese (looking back I think I would have just gotten the fried green tomatoes as a side rather than with the cheese, but still tasty.) The chicken fried chicken sandwich was HUGE and happily the gravy was served on the side, I would have liked a spicy element in the sandwich maybe like some jalapeños to break up the richness, but overall quite good an a popular item on the menu. It also kinda fell apart as you ate it, but no biggie.

    Taco Burger with Sweet Potato Fries
    Dina C.

    Great place for lunch while in town. Nicely decorated and friendly servers. Plenty of menu options. I choose the taco burger with sweet potato fries. I'm not a big fan of sweet potato fries but felt that I should order them here. I'm glad I did, they were flavorful with the right amount of seasonings and crispness. The taco burger was delicious, the avocado was a bit dark but was easy to be removed. Everyone else in my group enjoyed their food as well.

As we walked in, co-owner and chef Shannon was trying to get the perfect photo of their baked potato for content. As we talked about her version of the baked potato, my husband and I both said we've got to try it tonight. So, we did just that along with the filet. Here's the special part, this steak was fork tender and cooked medium rare plus perfect with incredible flavor. We just had dinner at a steak house downtown Fort Worth for restaurant week last Saturday night. It was a wonderful evening and meal, but Oma Leen's filet blew away Saturday nights offering. This was our first experience ordering a steak at Oma Leen's as their other offerings are amazing. However, it will not be the last on the filet as well as the baked potato!

    We took the old highways home to Fort Worth from Austin today and found ourselves visiting Oma…read moreLeen's a second time, this time for lunch. So glad we did! The menu here is not expansive but it offers a very nice selection of tantalizing dishes. We opted for the fried chicken tacos. Being old timers with small appetites we customarily share an entree, but when I learned that an order consists of two, not the customary three tacos, I ordered a plate for each of us. Big mistake! Hahaha. These tacos are humongous! I'm afraid I totally failed to fulfill my duties as a responsible Yelper and take a photo of the presented plate. Attached is a pic of one, but the pic does not adequately provide for you a sense of the taco's actual size. We each had to work to finish one each. This creation is a work of taco art. A taco masterpiece. The tortilla appears to be house-made. The large pieces of chicken breast, perfectly seasoned and breaded; and crisply fried rest on a bed of some of the tastiest cole slaw ever. The fried chicken is then topped with a couple sauces that sing with the chicken and finished with house made hot honey. This taco is worth the drive to Hico from FTW for lunch. Service was once again very pleasant and attentive. And as I think I said in my previous review, Owners/Chefs Austin and Shannon have done a wonderful job of curating a welcoming, warm and authentic ambiance in this historic building.

I looked on Yelp, and it had great reviews, so we were definitely interested in going. Upon arrival, we got a great parking spot and headed into an uncrowded restaurant. We were met immediately and taken to a table against the far wall. Menus delivered quickly, and finding out we had never been to this location, our waitress gave us plenty of time to review the options. Asked about what she would recommend, she said it was all good. We ordered an appetizer called Wagon Wheel. It's a fried cheese wheel of cheddar, gouda, and parmesan. It's sprinkled with bacon, green onions, and has a dollop of jalapeno cream cheese in the middle. It sort of looks like a thin pizza. We all loved it! The restaurant is kind of a gourmet burger place and everyone besides me ordered that. I saw that they offered a country fried wagu steak, and I ordered that. It came with garlic cream potatoes, honey-bourbon baked beans, and a cornbread pancake. The food came out quickly and was just as everyone ordered. The others in the party enjoyed their food, and I really, really, really liked mine (I would order again). The only complaints were about the seasoning. It seemed like the chef forget it on all of our meals. The only other complaint had to do with the extreme heat in the guy's restroom. Will I return? I will if we are back in Stephenville visiting and anyone suggests going out to eat:)

We walked in and over to a booth... the table appeared clean but the seats had food left in them for ... well I'm not sure how long. Moved to another booth that the guy way "wiping down" with a wet dirty rag and no cleaner. Yes, I am aware that some restaurants soak towels for this purpose, but I promise this was not the case. He did not wipe down the seats, but the food on the seat was to my right and there really was no other option, since all the chairs at the tables had hand prints on the top of the chairs and black dirt on the legs of the chairs. I informed the waitress that she might want to remind her bus boy that he should wipe down the seats. She apologized and I hope she passed on the information. While sitting there, I became more uncomfortable. Food on the walls. Air vents were black, like the AC filter has never been changed. I observed people behind the counter on an "ice rink of grease" sliding all around. The floors in the restaurant haven't been cleaned in days. It was 10 am, no way could they look like that from just a few hours. The grill has not been cleaned in well, it's been a while.... See photos, the aluminum wall guard was swiped at. But the controls on the grill were just nasty Waitresses were eating and drinking behind the counter, in front of customers. I didn't get to the restrooms, but if they are anything like the rest of the restaurant..... Coffee was as far as I wanted to go here. But my mom wanted to eat. So we ordered a burger and a steak sandwich. 40.00 plus tip. Food was subpar. Does were cold. Burger was not great. Mom liked her steak sandwich. Would I recommend this place. Absolutely NOT. We will not be going back. A giant waste of money.
