    Fried ribeye and an old-fashioned

    Best chicken fried steak in Bastrop County. The service is always nice and friendly. The atmosphere is relaxing.

    Margaritini!

    We were in the mood to try someplace new and found Joseph's through Yelp. We actually made a reservation the day before but early evening it still wasn't too crowded. When we checked in with the hostess she told us food was coming out a little slow that evening - which I appreciated her letting us know. In the end the timing of the food arriving at our table was great- didn't seem slow at all! They have a short but nice specialty cocktail menu and the drinks we got were both great. Their wine list was also relatively short but with good options. We got the New York Strip which was tender and cooked to perfection paired with really tasty (and not surprisingly super rich) au gratin potatoes. We also got the chicken fried chicken which was crispy and flavorful and gave my favorite place for this dish in Bastrop a run for their money! Oh! And the butter lettuce salad was really lovely. Big chunks of blue cheese, grape tomatoes and a really flavorful dressing- super fresh lettuce, too. All in all- Joseph's was a nice surprise. It's so tempting to stick with our tried and true favorites for a date night but I'm so glad we ventured out. This will be added to the date night options going forward!

    It was a bit later at night, they were short staffed. We walked in and they said that it would probably be about 45 minutes before the food would come out. We weren't in a rush, so that was fine. We were seated at a table and just relaxed. They were very short staffed. No worries. We got the potato skins, house salads, bacon wrapped medallions, chicken fried chicken, some of the steaks, and the cheesecake. Presentation was lackluster, but I was just happy to get the food. The steaks were cooked perfectly. There was minimal seasoning, but the quality of the meat was so good, it didn't need anything overpowering. All of the sides were delicious. The cheesecake was a sweet ending to a great meal.

    5 stars for the wholesome environment, top notch service, and yummy home style food. Our go to work lunch spot. Highly recommend the fries and the chicken fried chicken.

    Pork Porterhouse and mash potatoes

    We recently moved to good ol' Elgin, Tx We finally tried this restaurant and we were not disappointed with the food one bit. I had the pork porterhouse chop my husband and son had the ribeye. Everything was extremely tasty with lots of great flavor Our waitress was extremely friendly but poor girl was the only one waiting tables so we would wait awhile to be seated, refills, the bill, to go boxes...etc. not her fault-they we're just short staffed. Other than that. We had a great experience and will return for the tasty food. As for the ambiance, it's a nice place but we sat right under a section with dirty mildewed ceiling tiles.

    My husband came to Joseph's Steak House for date night. The service was quick and friendly. The food was good, they accommodated the splitting of a steak; even cooking it two different ways for our separate preferences. The only issue I came across was there was water marks/ possibly black mold over our table.

    Western Deco

    My birthday was coming around so we decided to celebrate a little early. Saw this little gem in the city of Elgin, just east of the city of Manor. We noticed previous YELP reviews were very inspiring. The interior reminds me of the nice small chain steak houses we dined in SoCal. Lots of western theme decor and wall art. The menu is quite exciting. Lots of great meals to choose from. One that specifically caught my eye was the "Chicken Fried Ribeye steak". It sounded so good, but my cholesterol isn't low enough to take that on. My wife and I split a 12oz grilled Ribeye steak, with asparagus and a side salad. The chief was nice enough to split the entire meal in half on separate plates. I was immediately impressed with that move, and no extra plate charge. (I'm really liking this place already.) The steak and asparagus was cooked to perfection. Lots of pink inside like we like it and a well cook crust of spices on the outside. Tender and juicy. The asparagus was grilled to the point where the stalks had a nice fresh crispness to it, but the buds also had a nice little crunch. Now, I'm not a huge fan of asparagus, but these little guys were quite tasty. I will be back, it is worth the 55 min drive from Georgetown/Leander area. When we arrived we were greeted by our host "Julie", she was also our server. She also fills in as bartender when needed. She is awesome in every position. She served our order "exactly how we placed it" (If you've seen my prior reviews, you know we have a lot of changes and food allergies). She was so sweet, she checked on us constantly, and just made us feel very welcome. (***** 5 Stars for her alone *****) All in all "Josephs Steak House can be your goto spot for quiet intimate dinning, celebrations or to just have a really good affordable steak and get treated real nice. So take the drive and experience fine dining on the East side of town. Michael C - Georgetown, Texas

    Crab cakes are the best in the area! Ambiance is nice no matter what time you go. One of these days I am going to get the prime rib.

Crispy on the outside, golden and crunchy, with a cheesy, gooey center that tasted like true homemade mac & cheese. Already off to a strong start. Then came the chicken and waffles... and let me just say: the chicken is a 1000/5. Perfectly crispy, well-seasoned breading with juicy, tender meat inside. Every bite was packed with flavor. The waffle was soft, fluffy, buttery, and cooked just right--paired perfectly with the chicken. I also tried the gumbo (added shrimp). The flavor was definitely there, rich and well-developed with a great consistency on the roux. For me personally, it was just a tad on the salty side--but honestly, not enough to take away from the overall experience. Even the cabbage was seasoned perfectly and cooked just right--nothing on the table was bland. This is one of those spots where you can taste the care in every dish. Flavor everywhere, no shortcuts. Five stars all the way. I'll definitely be back.

Sign us up! This is a little gem that is apparently owned and run by some New Orleans raised folks, and the menu lovingly reflects those roots. Breakfast all day, and tons of other mouthwatering selections. At the recommendation of our server I ordered the Tenders and Waffles. There were so many hot, juicy and crispy tenders on a waffle sprinkled with powdered sugar and honey... and it was soooo good. The dining room was clean, the staff was on too of everything and super nice, and the food was great. We will be back!

No one would answer the phone... I was worried the establishment could be close but to my surprise when I got there, there was 2 employees there. :/ French fries were not crispy from being in the styrofoam to go container hot and was a bit soggy. The burger was well seasoned and was good but it was soggy too. They forgot to give me a drink that comes with the Elgin Cheeseburger combo and I didn't realize the missing drink until I got home which was too late. Overall, I think maybe my experience would have been different if I dined there. The inside of the establishment was super dark and blacked out. The burger was decent and was better than other places that offered burgers in town. I would order a dine in burger from here again and try other items on the menu. Maybe second time is a charm? :)
