I am trying to eat healthier these days, so a big fat chicken fried steak with gravy, Texas, toast,…read morefries, and coleslaw is a big splurge for me--and the last few versions I've tried left me disappointed and fearful that this pinnacle of Texas culture was fading fast. But the CFS at Clear Springs has renewed my faith in greasy, salty carb-loading. The steak itself was big enough to be a solid presence on my plate, and the crust was perfectly seasoned and adhered to the meat properly. The cream gravy was a little bit bland, but that's what hot sauce and pepper are for. The fries were on the skinny side, but fresh, perfectly cooked and well seasoned, and the Cole Slaw was tasty--that little nod to eating my vegetables. But, oh, the Texas toast, that carb bomb of margarine-laden white bread I love nearly as much as I love my mother! The restaurant, housed in an old railway Depot building is cool and creaky, and pleasantly full of weird vintage stuff like old bicycles and prosthetic legs, wonderfully pure Texas kitsch. Add to that a tattoo-covered server who was friendly, efficient, and kept this thirsty traveler's ice water full, and you have a great addition to a holiday weekend.

I ordered my steak medium. It came rare and dripping. I asked the server if the cook flash it for a couple of minutes to cook it some more. My partner finished his food, my steak never came back. Server asked if I ever got it. I said no and asked him to charge me for the corn and coleslaw and remove the steak. They did, but left hungry. Not great.
