    Food is yummy & served quickly. Ambiance is very fun. Staff seemed a little upset but who knows why. There are only two restrooms (single use) so sometimes there's a line.

    Old time rustic steakhouse. The employees were friendly and helpful. The service was great and the staff checked on regularly. You enter the restaurant and are greeted by staff and they take your order. Then you go down the line a grab your salad if you chose that as one of your sides. Also, you grab your soft drink and silverware before paying. You find a table and wait for your food. They have a self serve potato bar and hot self serve steak toppings bar. Steaks were good, sides were good and the garlic bread was tasty. Prices were good. This is not a high end steakhouse, but more on par with sizzler quality, and a more family friendly vibe! If co you're looking for a good steak, with an old time feel, then head down to Steak Corral!

    I've never been to this place but I saw it on social media. I just loved everything about it. The food was delicious and the service was fast. I felt like I was going back in time. I just loved everything. The girls were super friendly and patient since we were kinda lost because it was our first time there. I can't wait to go back!

    Every time we come here, it always brings me back to the IE, but I love coming here not just for the amazing prices for steak, but the great value and not to mention, the food is pretty good. It is so hard to find restaurants that serve steak at their great prices. I hope that they can continue to offer such a great value. If I was a selfish individual, I would gate keep this restaurant, but I would not want to do anything to affect their business. In fact, I hope more people come here, but I don't think that is an issue because Steak Corral has been around as long as I myself have been alive. The low frills style but great service, you are welcomed in as you come in and your order is taken right up front at the start of the self served salad bar, (one trip only) the drink station which is also self serve however the drinks do come with free refills, a limited choice of desserts, and at the end is a friendly staff to verify your order and to ring up your selections. They have a tip jar near the register for cash tips, but as an advice, and not to get into the whole tipping debate, if you are paying by credit card, advice the cashier you would like to add a tip on your transaction because unlike other restaurants, the receipt you sign does not give you the option to add a tip. The service here is great. They do bring your order to your table, they will help with any questions, but if you want condiments, or add ons to your meal, they have a condiments bar that is self serve but you can add items like grilled onions, mushrooms, bell peppers, gravy, teriyaki sauce, bbq sauce, and even nacho cheese. You want extra butter, get what you want. Need chives, help yourself. As I mentioned the great value, all extras that are at the self serve bar are complimentary. Honestly, if you have never been here before, you truly have to give Steak Corral a try. I personally don't think you will be disappointed.

    It is what it is. Nothing fancy, but food is good. Service, not so much. My daughter and I walked in, first time here. We didn't know whether to sit down or not. Nobody out front. Girl showed up, asked us if we were ready to order. I told her we've never been here before. She just said.. the menu is up there. She didn't give us any direction. We ordered with her, she finally told us to go down the salad bar and the cashier is at the end, when we sat down and they brought the plates, the baked potato was naked. I asked for condiments and server was like... it's over there and posted to an island. I said do we just get it ourselves? Yes. So my daughter and I walked up with our plates just expecting the bare minimum. Boy was I wrong! They had a rub of butter and sour cream with all the fixin's. Au jous, grilled onions, gravy, cheese, etc to top your steak. I love condiments!!! Though the only downside was that everything a had film over it like it's been sitting there awhile, we had gone at opening. Oh.... We ordered the 5 oz sirloin. Daughter hit salad bar and baked potato. I hit salad bar and onion rings. Lady at the front did tell us when we were ordering that if we wanted to go back to the salad bar, it would be $1.50 more, onion rings were crunchy! Just the way I like them! I put $$ in the tip jar for the cook. Go back for the food, not the serviceI

    Hey Yelp fam!!! Paid a visit to our cousins in Whittier and She highly recommended this spot that she's been coming to for years it was her dad's spot. So I had high hopes! Lot of mixed reviews but this one is mine and I'm not pulling punches!!! Wouldn't do us no favors if I did. It's has a cool atmosphere indoor lots of old west decor pretty cool. Sort of a cafe style diner. You place your order when you walk in. There's an option to get a salad bar with your basic options they use iceberg lettuce and basic toppings not bad but difficult to serve yourself. If you order a baked potato like I did they have a potato topping bar also. I had the porterhouse steak medium. The steak was unevenly cooked some parts were medium rare while other parts were medium well and pretty tough to chew also. Friendly staff was a plus. Overall the atmosphere and service were good the food on the other hand needs a little refinement I believe the cooks need a bit of training.

    There's not much more to say about Steak Corral other than that it is by far THE BEST steakhouse around for the price. Steak Corral has been providing the greater Whittier community with quality steaks and potatoes for decades. Steak Corral is a true American steakhouse classic. I regularly dine here and have never had a bad experience. Such a gem to have such a throwback in this chaotic world. If you dine here, ask for Liz. She's the best server I've ever had .

    Porterhouse with baked potatoes and cheese toast.. yum
    Tony S.

    I recently visited this place after about 10yrs. I always thought this was a decent restaurant for price friendly steaks. I ordered the porterhouse medium. And i have to say i was not disappointed. Salad and drinks are self serve before you pay, then entrees are served directly at table. Self serve all your potatoes fixing. A different concept but it works. check out my plate.

    Love the old school western looking steakhouse vibe. Like others on Yelp mention, like Sizzler from the 70's. Family run as well. Food - Both of our steaks had lots of grisle or hard pieces like fat. This was not good. Even though they were ordered "medium" they were tough. Even the filet Mignon was tough. We wanted to love it but didn't. Baked potatoes were good and we liked the salad bar style or adding toppings and the salad bar as well. Wanted to love it, but just can't today. Having said that, the prices for steak were very inexpensive so our expectations weren't too high. Probably good for budget friendly dining. Nice not to have to pay $50+ for a steak.

    Chihuahua

    NEVER AGAIN! I've been coming here for 40 years with family and by myself. I always order grilled cheese sandwiches because they are the best. This last time I went to do a take out order, and when I got to the waiting area, I saw a chihuahua sitting in one of the chairs by the grill. During the waiting process, one of the workers occasionally came out of the kitchen to handle the dog and then go back into the kitchen, several times with food preparationimplements in his hands. Not only is it completely illegal to have pets in a restaurant, it's absolutely disgusting that someone who handles people's food is also playing with a dog. They have lost my future business, and the business of all who I have shared this with so far.

    The prices are great!

The desert and cocktails were nice but due to the service it did not make up for the overall experience. Desert: Tiramisu 4/5 - great flavor, ratio of cream was too much compared to cake portion Canolli 4/5 - duo flavors were nice and had a good shell with crunch Crème brûlée 2/5 - pistachio flavor was light and it's was almost too warm and liquidy. Cocktails overall some major hits and other misses. Sgroppino 5/5 - strong but with a great flavor profile Dragon fruit cocktail 2/5 - too light tasting, not much flavor or alcohol? Gave more juice Peach Bellini 4.5/5 - table side pour is nice touch and rest of bottle was nice. Syrup has a sourness but mixed in with Bellini and gelato and tasted just right. Melontini - 2.5/5 light, somewhat good flavor but nothing memorable. Ambience seems nice but it can be loud inside with open floor plan.

Today I took my sister to introduce her to the best steak sandwich around. She started eating before me and said it was not that good. I'm looking at her like she's crazy as I put mayo and mustard on my Sammy. I take the first bite and notice this is NOT the flavor that I had before. Added a little salt and pepper thinking that will help. NOPE! Each bite was tough and loaded with gristle or inedible fat or something that I couldn't separate with my teeth. I'm pulling pieces apart and having to eat around the tough meat. I took the sandwich up to the register and asked them if they changed the cut of meat they use. They said no, it's always been either rib eye or NY. Every single one of the many I'd had before were the same. This one was different. Even looked different, as if it had been run through a machine in an attempt to tenderize it. Didn't work! You could see through some parts kind of like the way a knitted scarf would look If you stretched it out and could see the holes in it. Anyway, the guy said, "You must have got a tough cut" or "bad cut". I can't remember exactly the wording. But then he just shrugged me off. No offer to fix the problem. I was hungry, I hadn't had breakfast, and it was obvious the guy didnt care, so I just went back to my table and ate the rest of the bread and fixings while gnawing off any edible meat from my horrible steak. $26 for a sandwich and fries. Not willing to spend that much and hope I get a good cut of meat. I'm done.

    I'm honestly very disappointed…read more We ordered delivery from what used to be one of our favorite local restaurants. Three years ago, we dined here and had an amazing experience, which is why we were excited to order again. Unfortunately, this meal was one of the worst restaurant experiences we've had. I ordered the pork ribs and fried shrimp. The ribs were extremely dry--so dry that they tasted like they had been cooked days earlier and reheated multiple times. They were nothing like the ribs I remembered from previous visits. After just a few bites, I started feeling uncomfortable. The fried shrimp was equally disappointing. It had almost no flavor at all and tasted bland and uninspired. My husband ordered the burger, which was advertised as a blend of Wagyu and regular beef. We were expecting something special, but the patty lacked flavor and the quality was disappointing. What surprised us even more was that we live only five minutes away, yet the burger bun arrived completely soggy. The packaging was also poor. The food came in cheap plastic containers without any ventilation holes. For fried foods especially, proper packaging is important to prevent steam from ruining the texture. It felt like very little care was put into preparing the order for delivery. To make matters worse, both my husband and I experienced stomach discomfort and excessive gas afterward, and we were still feeling it the next day. What makes this experience especially disappointing is that this was my husband's birthday dinner. I chose this restaurant because of the wonderful memories we had here years ago, but the food quality was nowhere near what we remembered. I genuinely cannot understand how food of this quality was considered acceptable to send out to customers. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was so disappointing that I felt compelled to share it. I sincerely hope the restaurant takes a closer look at its food quality and delivery standards.

Orders took a little time to arrive, but they made sure we had chips and salsa and with a full crowd and a limited number of wait staff, they made sure we were still being attended too. It is very loud here with a full restaurant of diners, the live DJ and football games going with loud cheering fans, so if you have sensitive hearing, bring some ear plugs.
