    Solid "Benihana" type experience Food was plentiful and well cooked. Table Chef was entertaining and enthusiastic. They don't take reservations for small groups so get there early. My only complaint is restaurant decor is dated and needs to be replaced

    Texas roll shrimp tempura and a delicious salmon roll with lemmon. It was gone is a flsh!

    alright, alright, alright, let's talk about Shogun Steak House. Small mom and pop shop. Completely friendly, courteous and warm. Today i got rocked with so many delicious flavors took me 3 hours to get up my table. I ordered my usual Tako sashimi and Green Mussels the chef took it to another level. Look at the pictures not only the presentation was A1, the chef tough me a way to place the wasabi on the soy sauce plate. You wanna be mind blown go ahead visit this restaurant and guess what they have a hibachi tables too.

    Food was good a bit over priced, service was okay I was here for a birthday but staff was very unprepared and unfriendly except the chef. In conclusion this place needs improvement but for now you are better off going next door to wing daddy's

    The second I sat down and tasted the delicious hibachi style seafood and eloquently cooked fried rice with legitimate white sauce to boot, I was all set to grant this place 4 stars overall. And then...something unthinkable happened...which I shall commence to cover in meticulous fashion. So as mentioned in my previous review of Clicks Billiards, this place is conveniently located in literal walking distance next to the aforementioned establishment. That's how we happened by this place. I've been searching for good hibachi places in the El Paso area for several months now and it still amazes me that this one has never come up on my radar. But no matter. The way it's tucked inside a factory outlet setting of sorts would almost have you believing it's one of those mom 'n pop hole-in-the-wall restaurants. The decorum almost says as much. That doesn't stop them from turning out a decent product, for the most part.. As with all hibachi or teppanyaki meals, we start off with our traditional soup and salad. This soup was phenomenal! Like, seriously. It packed a slight spicy kick to it, but not overwhelmingly so. I found the zucchini floating inside my soup to be rather out of place, but it didn't ruin the overall flavor of the soup for me or anything like that. And don't ask me about the salad, because I never eat those things at these types of restaurants (I covered this in a previous hibachi review). Let's talk main courses for a bit: the wife got filet, lobster, scallops and shrimp; whilst I got lobster and shrimp. First of all, my dish was excellent. I was seriously surprised here. This little place can sear shrimp and lobster perfectly with just the right amount of lemon juice, butter and soy sauce. I highly recommend trying this with a touch of white sauce. Trust me. It will change your life if you've never tried it before. The wife liked most of her meal, with the exception of the scallops (since she never eats them anyway, so I ate them for her instead) and the filet. *sigh*... This...is where Shogun missed the opportunity to earn a 4th star from yours truly and committed the ultimate [as the French would say] faux pas of all faux pas in protein prepping history. Right off the bat, the wife immediately noticed her steak tasted extremely sour. So much so that she spit out her first piece of steak. She wanted me to taste one as well. But honestly, you couldn't PAY me enough to sample something she already confirmed tasted sour beyond reason. And there was something else odd about this beef. As the chef was placing it on the grill, I noticed that it looked less reddish and more brownish than I'm used to seeing. At the time, I sort of shook it off and thought maybe the dim lighting was playing tricks on my eyes. Sadly, I should have listened to my gut instincts in this case. I know what fresh steak should look and smell like. After the wife took that first bite, we both knew without a doubt...this steak was spoiled, expired beyond recognition, and never EVER should have made it beyond the pass. Clearly, no one was doing adequate quality control on their produce here and whoever claimed they DID....needs to be fired immediately. Because they could have killed someone. It's a real shame, too. Because everything else about this place was basically awesome. And we WILL return. But when a chef or...whoever...serves up a piece of beef that's clearly expired and should have been thrown in the trash weeks ago, that's also clearly a sign that brings serious doubt this restaurant would pass a random health inspection of their kitchen, outright. I've never ran a restaurant before, but this is just a lay opinion based on common sense and watching numerous episodes of "Kitchen Nightmares". Oh, and if you're wondering how we were compensated for the foul steak, after the wife voiced her disdain for the fermented cattle, the chef quickly re-fired a NY strip for her. It smelled and tasted exactly like a steak should (I confirmed this one personally). So all in all...if it weren't for him reacting so quickly to remedy the previous situation, this rating could have been much worse. For now, I'll just chalk it up to someone in charge of the kitchen failing to do their job. It only makes me wonder who the head chef is and if he or she has any quality control standards. At any rate, said head chef should return to the culinary arts college ASAP! A word to the not-so wise: cold beef that lacks a reddish color = bad meat. End of story. Overall: until further notice or experience proves us wrong, don't order the filet from Shogun. Their seafood is spectacular though. I'd give THAT....a 9 out of 10. Also, the fact that this place offers instructions on how to use chopsticks is friggin' adorable.

    Chef's special. Added salmons.

    Decent place to eat teppanyaki in town. I recommend you to go during lunch time. Every day they have a different lunch special for about $8. For the amount of the meal, it's very cheap compare to other teppanyaki places. The teppanyaki chef is very nice and friendly. Other than teppanyaki menu they serve sushi. It's a little expensive so if you don't know what kind you will like, I recommend you go get chef's special. It comes with 5 different sushi and 6 rolls. Good size meal and cheaper than picking ones you like. They're closed on Sunday.

    Half way done serving the food and the sauces hadn't been poured yet.

    Half way done serving the food and the sauces hadn't been poured. The cook never introduced himself and he had to cook 3 to go meals before he served us. Bad management creating bad employees. After that we couldn't pay with our credit card and had to drive to an ATM and come back to pay. Bathrooms smell. I wouldn't come back, unless i start seeing some changes in their reviews

    Since I was visiting my family in town I decided to yelp Japanese Steakhouse and Shogun and Hayashi Hibachi came up... I had already been to Hayashi and loved it so I figured to give Shogun a try. My family and I arrived around 530pm on a Wednesday and the place was legit EMPTY... we decided to sit in the grill area and order some drinks. First and foremost, entering the restaurant gave me an eye sore. I was astonished at the gross 80s carpeting and furniture throughout the restaurant and how HIGHLY dirty it was and the poor fish tank looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a few months. It's unfortunate because the restaurant also had a slight foul smell lingering around. As I looked over the menu to order drinks we decided to order sushi... ::: Now for the HIGH prices on the menu you would think this restaurant was well maintained... but that was a FAIL on their part. We received our drinks and while ordering sushi my family decided this wasn't a place to hangout for dinner so we were nice and ordered 2 sushi plates and finish off our drinks. Since we were starving and wanted to go someplace else we changed our sushi plate QUICKLY with our waitress and the chef/ manager seemed angry and gave me an angry kinda look. I didn't need to explain myself, but I told him that we were short on time and had to leave.... he was angry and started to raise his voice not letting me speak until I finally yelled out "ALL I WANT IS THE POPULAR SUSHI PLATE!!! THATS ALL" (that's literally the name of the sushi plate) ... anyways, I could tell he was extremely heated!! Lol Our sweet waitress was super nice to us... she said our sushi came with free miso soup ... but a few minutes later after the altercation with the owner/ sushi chef she came back and told us we were being charged for our soup now since we only decided to order ONE (15.95) sushi plate. Then she was yelled at from across the dining room from the female Asian manager "NEVER MIND" to disregard us from being charged for our soup that we didn't even want in the first place. The owners were CLEARLY talking sh!t about us in Japanese, but I could care less!! THIS PLACE and its OWNERS ARE RIDICULOUSLY CRAZY!!! So now after the heated tension was finally over and we finished our drinks ... I got the check and the waitress ended up charging me for the WRONG most expensive drink on the menu then what I had originally ordered. She confessed, but failed to help to assist in correcting her mistake. I didn't want her to get in trouble with the crazy owners so I let it slide. We even made sure to leave her a tip. To be honest ... 1 bud light and 2 mix drinks w/ one sushi plate all came out to $40. INSANE right??!!! I wished them a Happy New Year and my family and I made our way out as soon as possible. My family and I will NEVER come back to this place again!! I'm hoping within time this restaurant gets remodeled and sets reasonable prices because as of right now.... this place is BUNK!!! I HIGHLY suggest just going to Hayashi Hibachi!!! That is all.

    I visited this restaurant around 8:00 p.m. on a Monday evening while in town for a business trip…read more It was conveniently located near my hotel, and my first impression was very positive. The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere, was busy with guests, and I was seated within just a few minutes of arriving. Unfortunately, the experience began to decline after I was seated. I waited approximately 10-15 minutes before anyone acknowledged me. While waiting, I looked through the menu and was surprised to find it noticeably dirty, which wasn't the impression I expected from a restaurant of this caliber. When my server finally arrived, she was polite but didn't seem particularly welcoming or engaging. She appeared stressed, which made the service feel rushed rather than hospitable. I ordered a Diet Dr Pepper and my meal at the same time since I had already decided what I wanted. It then took another 10 or more minutes for my drink to arrive. Shortly afterward, someone delivered bread with honey butter, which was excellent. However, no bread plate, napkin, or silverware accompanied it, so I had to flag down another employee before I could enjoy it. After waiting another 20-plus minutes, my steak and fries finally arrived. I had ordered the steak medium rare, but it was burned on one side, barely seared on the other, and when I cut into it, it was blue rare--nearly raw. I asked my server to send it back, and she promptly took it to the kitchen. About 15 minutes later, a replacement steak arrived. Unfortunately, while the opposite side was now burned, the inside was cooked to medium well. I let my server know this was still unacceptable, and she asked if I would like another steak prepared. I agreed, requesting simply that it be cooked medium rare without being burned. To the restaurant's credit, the third steak was prioritized and delivered by who I believe was the manager. She asked me to cut into it to confirm it was cooked correctly. Although the replacement was noticeably smaller and thinner than the original, it was cooked to a proper medium rare, so I accepted it. By that point, however, my fries were completely cold. The manager apologized briefly but never returned to check on the meal or my overall experience. My server didn't return until I was nearly finished eating, at which point she asked if everything was okay. I simply requested the check. What should have been about a 30-minute dinner stretched to well over an hour, and after a long day of business travel, I was ready to return to my hotel. I wasn't expecting my meal to be completely comped, but after multiple mistakes and significant delays, a small gesture of goodwill--such as discounting the entrée or even comping the soda--would have gone a long way. Overall, this restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere, and I believe the food has the potential to be very good when prepared correctly. However, the service, management's follow-up, and overall attention to the guest experience fell well below what I would expect from a restaurant of this quality. I hope they can improve these areas because the restaurant certainly has the potential to provide an excellent dining experience.

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 dining room was clean, attractive, and busy, which is usually a good sign. As for the food, it was good, but not particularly memorable. My steak was cooked correctly and exactly as ordered, which I appreciated. The coleslaw was one of the highlights of the meal. The beans, however, weren't really to my taste, although I could see how others, especially locals, might enjoy them. I also ordered a side salad but was initially brought the wrong dressing. The service was friendly and courteous. My server was pleasant and took my order promptly. However, I felt there were some missed opportunities to enhance the dining experience. There was very little explanation about the steak options or available additions. More guidance or recommendations would have been appreciated, especially for guests who may be visiting for the first time. One area where I believe the restaurant could improve is attention to dining details. After finishing my salad, I would have appreciated having my salad fork cleared and a fresh fork provided for the main course. Small touches like this can go a long way in elevating the experience. The food arrived in a reasonable amount of time, which was a positive. During my approximately 30-minute meal, however, I was only checked on once or twice. The restaurant was clearly busy, and I noticed what appeared to be a manager helping in other areas of the restaurant, which I respect. Even so, regular table check-ins remain important. My biggest concern occurred at the end of the meal. After paying, I requested an itemized receipt and waited about 15 minutes to receive it. Management apologized and explained that they were busy. While I appreciate the apology, I believe an itemized receipt should be provided automatically with the payment receipt rather than requiring a separate request and extended wait. Overall, Great American Steakhouse offers a pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff, and a decent meal. While nothing about my visit was terrible, there also wasn't enough to make me want to return. With a little more attention to service details and guest experience, I think this restaurant has the potential to be much stronger.

    No so great. Absolutely nothing great about our visit at this steakhouse. Visited this restaurant…read morelast week to celebrate my MIL's birthday. This place is shit. We had a party of 11. We were lied to the minute we walked in. We were told it would be a 10-minute wait. It was about a 25-minute wait. The server was nice until after seating us, as she decided not to serve us. 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.

    In El Paso for a business trip and wanted a great steak. Our Hotel desk clerk referred us to Cattle…read moreBaron. It was very close to our hotel as well so it was destiny. We had about a 5 minute wait and our server John was on point. He took our drink order and brought waters as well in case. He also soon after brought us these huge bread rolls for the table. Fresh from the oven. We had a group of 6 so we ordered a potato skin appetizer (6pcs). It was perfectly cooked and seasoned. I ordered the peppercorn NY strip with steak fries. Medium cooked, it was so juicy and perfectly cooked. I can say it's in the top 10 I have ever had. So delicious. Can't wait to go back to El Paso. I did see this restaurant has other locations in New Mexico. So if I go there I will seek them out. Please enjoy a steak at the cattle baron.

    So I was so busy today I never had breakfast or lunch or a protein bar , not NUTHIN'! I was hungry…read more As I was headed home down Mo Rama I remembered cattle baron has an early dinner menu, for like $12 something, so I went by there. I was finna get the 6oz sirloin, which I have before and it's nice. Then I saw the 8oz Helen breast anyway you want it. Mmm I think I'll get that instead. Then I'm scanning on down the list and see 8 oz chopped round. With mushroom gravy. I can't do potatoes right now but I could do rice. And add a salad bar and some steamed broccoli, still only be about $21 and that's with the ice tea. And fresh baked bread and butter at the table. So I ordered that with gravy in the rice, cuz I likes gravy on it ALL, and I did add the Broccoli for $3.95 and a salad bar for $4.95. But she let me hold putting in the order so I could get most is the salad are before they started it. So I get it fresh, not sitting on my table for 20 minutes getting cold like last time I came when I barely got back to the table with the salad and they brought my steak out. The cook FAST here. Salad bar here is IMMENSE. And so many choices for salad, Romain, mixed greens or spinach, tons of toppings and at least 10 different kinds of dressings. At least 6 different what I call "prepared" salads like macaroni, potato, carrot, pea salad, beets and onion salad, some kind of angel hair with green online and bell peppers on olive oil and black pepper and a dash of vinegar? It's so good when they have it. Two soups always, today was tortilla and vegetable, which upon inspection looked more like a creamy potato with carrots and other veggies and diced potatoes of course, maybe they just had not changed it's name plate. I make a wonderful salad and thoroughly enjoyed it. Love chilled plates. When my lunch/dinner came it was on a huge round plate, the ground round was suspiciously SMALL. I used to work in a cafeteria and we sold 8oz chipped steaks and they were rice the size of what was in my plate. It actually really looked more like a hamburger patty. It would have fit perfectly on a small hamburger bun. If I had to guess I'd say head it's 1/3rd pound burger. Which is a tic over 5 oz. Not 8 ounces. The brucellosis was a large serving and bright green, and almost still raw. I could not cut it with a fork. I had to used a steak knife. I should have asked that it be steamed fork tender. That's on me, I guess. I just don't like "steamed" broccoli that still could pass as salad bar accoutrement. There was no gravy in the rice, even thought I expressly asked for gravy in the meat and rice. So as she sat the plate in front of me and asked if I needed any this else I said "gravy" and she said oh that's right it was supposed to be on the rice, I'll get some gravy. And a minute or so later another smiling lady brought me small bowl of gravy. The sweet tea was perfect. I even had a refill on that. The ground steak was cooked nicely, juicy and hot, the mushroom gravy was very flavorful and the rice pilaf was a perfect companion to it. I forgot to take pics, sorry, I just dug right in. This is still a great early dinner price and great choices. I'm definitely gonna get the 8 ounce chicken breast your way, next time. But which way shall I choose??? Decisions, decision!

    Casa Pantera-Mexican Contemporary Chophouse…read more This place is a MUST! Loved everything about it! The restaurant's ambiance is striking, featuring Tulum/Riveria Maya-inspired decor that combines elements with modern aesthetics. The use of wood, metals, warm lighting, and overall dining room and outdoor terrace displays and creates an inviting dining experience. Service: The service is attentive and knowledgeable, with server who was eager to recommend several of the restaurant favorites. Not one dish we did not like-all amazing! Culinary Highlights: Mesquite Grilled Spanish octopus was Smokey yet savory. Cooked to perfection also served with Fingerling potatoes and salsa macha The bone-in ribeye (prime) cooked on a firewood grill was a true highlight of the menu, showcasing the restaurant's expertise in preparing a distinctively rich flavor entree. Cooked with beef tallow (no seed oils) chefs kiss Smoked beef short rib was so tender and had Oaxacan quesillo potato purée with tomatillo jam. Simply did not disappoint. Street style corn with chipotle aioli had us all going back for seconds. The sweetness of the corn balances with the smokey, spicy notes of the aioli. Craft Cocktails: Well balanced and wide selection of Tequilas to choose from. I can't say enough good things! Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a night out with friends or family this restaurant is sure to impress. Our Group agreed that it was a meal and experience that will leave lasting impression. We will be back!!!!!

It felt like a place you'd want to hang out for a while. Definitely make a reservation because it fills up quickly. Service was a little slow at times, but our server was super friendly and helpful with recommendations, so it didn't take away too much from the experience. The bone marrow was AMAZING!! Easily one of the highlights of the night. We also ordered the Delmonico with bone marrow butter, which was cooked well and really flavorful. Drinks were great too and very well balanced. Overall, this place is a solid 4 stars, pushing 5. Great atmosphere, good drinks and some really standout dishes.

The concept is brilliant, Mexican and American flavors elevated. The boutique hotel is beautiful, a reminder to future diners to look up as they have flowy lights that go up and down (mesmerizing). I really looked forward to this place and wanted to like it but the service just dimmed the meal. We went for a graduation celebration and did not feel that. I do acknowledge that we show up quite late since the graduation ended late. We placed our orders right before the kitchen closed. Throughout the meal, we were not offered extra bread, a dessert menu, or even a mere "Congratulations" from our server. A kind gentleman who seemed like the chef did come to check on the food and congratulate us. He seemed to actually care about the guests. I would love to come back to see if the service improves because the cooking deserves 5 stars here.

Walking in, there was a cool flower art installation hanging over the tables, which was a really unique touch and probably one of the more memorable parts of the space. That said, the overall vibe felt a little bland and didn't quite match the hype we were expecting. Food-wise, the experience was a bit mixed. We ordered a ribeye, but it unfortunately came out pretty cold. We let our server know and he did take it back so the kitchen could warm it up, which we appreciated. The table bread that came out was also on the dry side and not very impressive. The spicy margarita ended up being one of the better parts of the meal. It wasn't actually on the menu, but they made one for us and it was really good. We also ordered fries, which were solid, and the bone marrow (called "Mexican butter") was easily the highlight! It sauce that it came with! 10/10 It was rich, flavorful, and definitely the best thing we tried. ‼One quick heads-up for anyone visiting: there's a nail sticking out of the handrail going down the stairs to the bathroom, so just be careful grabbing the railing on the way down.‼ Overall, there were a couple good items, but the experience felt a little underwhelming compared to the expectations from the reviews. Maybe it was just an off night.
