    Medium rare ribeye
    Sarah A.

    Their ribeye tastes delicious - probably just seasoned with salt. It was tender and perfectly cooked. I ordered crispy hasbrowns and they were exceptional. I went mid-morning on a Thursday and there was one server for the whole place and she was incredible. 8 tables and 20 people, and she sat me, got me drinks and a menu, and took my order within minutes. She kept my coffee perpetually hot. I saw her always scanning the room to see who needed what. She was totally on it, and did it with grace.

    Atmosphere and décor, both minimal. The food and service excellent. The usual comment from my wife, only this time stated with emphasis, "That was the best damn chicken fried chicken I have had!" It was a big, big chicken breast steak with excellent crunchy breading. She picked mashed potatoes and fried okra for her two sides. Real mashed potatoes. $19.99 for a 12 oz ribeye cooked over a flame and two sides. Try and beat that at.... well anywhere! It worked for me with a small side salad and fries. Check the pictures. The chicken fried steak here has to be fantastic too. On Matt's website, many of the beef, pork and chicken entrees start their description with the words "hand cut". That would lead one to believe that Matt cuts the steaks and chops in the restaurant. NE Oklahoma is ranch country. It might be local beef? Three recommended meals: Chicken fried Chicken, Ribeye, and Chicken fried Steak. Pick from their big selection of sides to round out the meal. Save room for dessert, there is a case full of beautiful cakes to choose from. Don't overlook the catfish. There was plate after plate of catfish coming out of the kitchen this Friday. Very Popular and it looked good. Beatriz, our server took excellent care of us.

    Chicken Fried Steak Breakfast with Hash Brown Casserole
    John C.

    We stumbled upon this iconic gem during our anniversary getaway to Grand Lake. Our usual breakfast spot was apparently closed on Tuesdays. So we had to find somewhere else to have breakfast. That ended up being a huge win. Matt's Place has one of the best chicken fried steaks that either of us have had in a very long time. The overall quality is incredible. Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable, and very attentive. If you're in Grove, OK for breakfast don't skip out on trying Matt's Place!

    Chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes, brown gravy, and cucumber salad.
    Jamie S.

    Another great eatery in Grove! It's one of the only restaurants open on Mondays, which is nice. I stopped in for dinner, and it was delicious. Service was exceptional. I was seated quickly, and my food came out hot and fresh. Every time I think I find the best fried mushrooms, I find another spot! These fried mushrooms are next level good. Hand battered slices of portobellos! No button mushrooms here. Delicious house made ranch. Another thing worth mentioning is the cucumber salad side. It's sweet and pickled cucumber, red pepper, and shallot. It's SO good. The chicken fried steak was recommended by the waitress, and it did not disappoint. I went untraditional with brown gravy, and it was fork tender and delicious. The inside is simple. It's just a big metal building, but wonderful folks and food! Oh! And they have Pepsi products if you love Pepsi like me!

    Very good prime rib cheesesteak! We also tried the cod twice. The first time was great but the 2nd time there was way too much breading.

    Delicious food, Great Service and a small town ambiance feelin. I have alot of food allergies the…read moreservers are very considerate when takin orders and informative. The kitchen is great about gettin my order exactly how i ordered it without cross contamination. Five star in the eyes of a food allergy guest.

    Note: when I was up here 80% of 2024, I made frequent stops here and was always happy with the food…read moreand service.... I NEVER tip any less than 20% no matter how bad or borderline the service may be; but for tonight's less than regretful experience at Road Hog Saloon, I had to make an exception. Arriving arounf 7:20 pm, I immediately noticed a smaller than normal crowd and took a seat at the bar and ordered iced tea from one of the two bartenders present. The more elder one took my order which was a rib eye medium rare (seared on the outisde with a warm red center), loaded baked potato (with extra butter and sour cream), and corn. To me, a very simple, straight forward order. After placing it, I turned my attention to my phone since I was trying to figure out my schedule for the rest of the month since requests were made for my time. I hear the bartender that took my order cuss and scream something and storm off to the other side of the bar which prompted the other bartender to address the situation. Customers came and went and my order finally arrived. Knowing how well Road Hog Saloon seasons their steaks, I had no reason to worry about the flavor and started to cut in......to what should have been a tender piece of meat that would give way to streaks of juices streaming out of it; instead, I was trying to cut through what felt like a strap of leather. Inspecting the piece I finally freed from the husk, I saw a mostly brown strip with the slightest hint of pink in the center. I set it aside for the opportunity when the bartender might swing by and ask how everything was and started in on my side items. When I was almost finished with my baked potato, the bartender finally makes eye contact with me and I told her that the steak was a little overdone (which was a gross understatement). To this, she snatches the plate from the bar top and bee lines to the kitchen. I didn't catch all of the conversation, but I did hear her finally say, "just drop it rare then!" She comes back to me and argues with me that the steak was medium rare and that is how they cook it with a pink center (but all the previous times I ordered from this establishment, it was seared with a warm red center). She says nothing other than, we are going to make it rare for you then. Time passes and I am about ready to just give up, ask for my check, and leave when the other bartender brings out another steak looking extremely under-seasoned and asks me to cut into it, which I did, and just wanting to put the evening behind me; I told her it was fine. Upon inspection of the new steak, I was amused to find that it was at least 1/3 fat and gristle and separated as much of it as I could for a side by side comparison (as pictured). Completely giving up, I just asked for a box (I have enough faith in my cooking skills to salvage the "steak") and my check. When she finally hands me my check, I noticed that the individual ordered items were not listed and I asked for an itemized receipt so I could turn it in for reimbursement from my employer. She then yells at me that she cannot produce an itemized receipt and what do I want her to do? Hand write the items on the receipt?!?!?! I decided to cut my losses and handed her my card and said I was done with her attitude and I just want to leave. She shoves the receipt with $35.01 at me and takes my card to run it. I get back a credit card receipt that shows that it was run for $36.41!!!! I waited awhile for her to return so I could ask her about the discrepancy, but even though I was sitting at the bar and she is a bartender; she did not make it back around to me. Giving up on any further interaction with her, I left a 10% tip since I did take up some time at my seat and left. I will probably never return here again despite all the good experience I've had, this one has completely ruined it for me.

    Disappointed is an understatement!! Not the wait staffs fault. Waited way too long for food. We…read moreshould have aborted before our food came!! Fish and ships were not only cold but raw! Horrible!!! Po boy was on two thin...thin slices of bread!! Will not be back anytime soon...or at all!!!Unless management changes!! On top of that my brother and his wife sat on their swing bench and it fell apart! I witness that last time we were there and I had just warned them that it fell apart when it suddenly broke!! Horrible experience....thank god for the view...only thing that kept us from leaving.

    Pleasant surprise!! restaurants on Grandlake are definitely hit and miss! We came by boat and it…read morewas nice to have Dock hands meet us! This is three businesses all located on the water. They have the marina with fuel and a very nice and well stocked ship store. A small bar that was full and everybody seem to be happy. We sat outside on the patio and had good service and really good food! We had boneless wings for an appetizer while not as good as Buffalo wild wings they were similar with the sauces. We split a grilled chicken breast sandwich with pepper jack cheese, fresh guacamole on a jalapeño bun! 2 beers and food $35... Fair deal! They were very busy and my only critique would be they needed a full-time Buser to keep the tables and chairs cleaned off quickly and the place picked up!
