I took several lady friends, 2 from Maine, 1 from Phoenix. I thought they were going to lick their plates. We all had the chicken fried steak and we all loved it. Our waitress was great. My Maine friends had to go back home but my other friend most definitely wants to go back!! read more

I couldn't have had a better meal. I'm here in Phoenix for a conference, and my friends took me to this place for dinner. It was absolutely incredible. I usually loathe what some people call American food because the vegetables are overcooked and the food is under seasoned, but this place was perfect! We started off having the Frito pie, and the chili was just spicy enough with Fritos, cheese, and onions, and it was just a great, great dish. I remember this dish from my old neighborhood. I had a cocktail that was made with whiskey, lemon, and some other things that was incredibly refreshing. Then I had a chicken-fried pork chop, and this was so good, so flavorful! The gravy was wonderful! I added a little pepper to it and a little bit of the juice from those peppers in the bottle, and it made it perfect. This came with fried potatoes, which were wonderful, and green beans, which were stupendous. The green beans were not cooked in the usual lousy American style but were shiny, taut, crunchy, with just enough give. The almonds added to the deliciousness. Some of the best green beans I've ever had in my life. The pecan pie tasted homemade, and I wolfed it down. The restaurant itself had a kitschy old West theme with tons and tons of signs and pictures up on the walls. It looks like the kind of place that you'd probably drink beer, but the fact that they had great cocktails and great everything else really made it shine. Our server was friendly and very attentive. She was a sweetheart. This was a really good experience, and I will now tell everybody who comes to Phoenix to come to the Texaz Grill. read more

Service was great, waitress was friendly, quick and prompt. Checked back a couple of times if I needed anything. Great service. Food, Ordered their signature original chicken Fried Steak. Frozen patty, not hand made, hand breaded, same thing you would get at any breakfast diner. Bland in taste even with the gravy. Nothing special for $20. Ambiance - Small town cafe. Looks like it has history. Overall doesn't rate a return for me. read more

Returned after 5 years out of state. Chicken fried steak is as amazing as I remembered.

Stopped in to have some catfish recently and just loved how large the portions are. Service was relatively quick considering they made my order fresh. Iced tea was delicious. I love not having to wait for a refill. read more

I really wanted to love this place but was somewhat disappointed. The biscuits and chicken fried steak with the gravy were really good. However, all of the sides...corn, green beans, fried potatoes had NO flavor. It was like they forgot to season everything. Also, we had a large party in a long booth, as well as a toddler. We asked for a highchair and the only kind they had strapped onto the table and they they wouldn't let us use it unless it was inside the booth, but we were already fully crammed in with adults. They didn't have any stand alone highchairs or let is use a regular chair. I've never been to a restaurant that wouldn't accommodate something like this. Our waitress was really nice and provided good service. Not sure if I'll try this place again or not. read more

We have been going here for years and it never disappoints. They are known for their chicken fried steak and that's usually what I order. We went for lunch so I got the lunch size portion which comes with one steak and it is still huge. Dinner portion comes with two steaks so be warned, you will be getting a lot of food. My lunch came with mashed potatoes and gravy and corn along with a delicious biscuit. The chicken fried steak has a light crispy breading and is never greasy. The gravy has a delicious peppery flavor. Plan on leftovers and if you're nice, they give you a little extra gravy. My husband got the chicken fried chicken dinner which comes with 2 large chicken breasts and 2 sides. He got the mashed potatoes and a salad. They have good salads but be warned, they put chopped green olives on top unless you request to have them left off. We both had half our meal left over to take home. I had been dying to try one of their deserts so I got the peach cobbler and it was really good. More of a cake type top than I'm used to but delicious. They have really good fried catfish and even a decent burger. On the weekend you can even get a brunch chicken fried steak(called Eggs Bubba) that comes with a fried egg on top. So yummy! If you get a chance to go to Texaz Grill please do. You won't regret it! Bring your appetite! The service is always top notch! read more

Lol Not sure how to rate this place. The smell of an old tavern. Food is not what we were expecting. Service definetly is low quality at best. If your looking for Quality this is not the place. read more

Joined a couple of friends for lunch. Was seated at a booth barely large enough for 3 grown men. Ordered the " famous" chicken fried steak. Comes with mashed potatoes and corn, a biscuit and gravy. Biscuit, very good, especially with the rich white gravy. Mashed potatoes were excellent. Just lumpy enough, and the same tasty gravy! Corn was delicious. Nice side. The CFS? Average. Not bad, nothing special. A definite plus... condiments included A1& Heinz 57 sauce, Tabasco peppers in vinegar ( real Southern style), and Cholula hot sauce. Service was average, music playing was good old C&W. For me.... I'd come back, but not a destination choice. read more

Very Bland chicken fried steak disappointed when they say that's their specialty , but the fried chicken was delicious . Kids menu is solid they give plenty of food for the kids with ice cream . read more

I live up the street from this place, and it was already a great experience being able to walk to it. Upon arrival, the inside is so much fun. Quite the exciting atmosphere, very Texan-country vibes. We arrived for dinner, and were seated almost right away. The waitress was very attentive, personable, and nice. She offered the specials, gave us some ideas about the menu, and notified us of their most famous dishes. After looking over the menu, I decided to go with the CFC (Chicken Friend Chicken), with mashed potatoes and French fries, with my gravy on the side. Before the entrees came out, the waitress dropped off some of their buttermilk biscuits, which I gotta say, were probably the best I've ever had. I've never been a huge fan of them previously, because most of the one I've experienced were dense, dry, and quite crumbly. TexAZ's biscuits were perfectly light, buttery, and soft. SO Good! Our entrees came out and they most certainly did not disappoint. The CFC comes with TWO, full-sized chicken breasts, fried to perfection. It's not a super thick batter, which makes for a really nice crisp crunch. The chicken was quite juicy and flavorful, and adding a little of their gravy on it only enhanced the dish even further. The mashed potatoes were also fantastic, and the French fries were very fresh, and lightly salted. Overall, the experience was great, the service was great, the food was great. Highly recommend if you are wanting something that feels like home-cooked, comfort food. read more

Really nice. First time here and not at all disappointed. The inside is really fun. And has all these decor around. The food however also pretty good. I had the steak and eggs. The steak personally could've used more salt and so could the potatoes. I had the Sunday driver as well. Tastes like oj and vodka. My mom had the burger and it's a big burger. The burger beef is very soft and easy to eat and flavorful. My steak was easy to cut as well. The waitress was very friendly and I'd come back. Maybe next time I'll try the country friend steak they advertise read more

Party of 8. They accommodated us when they were full of reservations. And account of a somber occasion being celebrated for my friend that was leaving out of the country the next day. Majority got their famous chicken fried steak. Hot home made biscuits, mashed potatos and buttery corn were some of my favorite. Best of the best servers when it comes to hospitality here. And you really can't mess with an institution like TEXAZ. read more

I've lived in the valley for over a decade and have never been to Texas Grill and I sad about it. The food have a really good dinner vibes. It's a little dark and the walls are busy but it's also kinda cool as you can find something new every time you come in. The food was good and plentiful seasoned well hot and I got exactly what I wanted! read more

Awesome as usual!! Another great Father's Day Meal in the books!! Thanks for being so authentic.

THE BEST place for chicken fried chicken. OMGOSH, the lumpy mashed potatoes and gravy are heavenly. The bread pudding is magnificent, dense with whiskey sauce. I love opening that door & being ushered into the darkness, that staff is IYKYK, that tells me good food awaits! The staff is always a bit snarky to add to the ambience! read more

I have been here several times. If I want a chicken fried steak I only go to two places in town. Overeasy for a breakfast one and TexazGrill for lunch or dinner. Bring your appetite because both servings sizes will fill you up. It doesn't sit heavy like ALOT of CFS but it is satisfying. Service is always prompt and attentive. The building at 16th St and Bethany Home is smallish but has quirky western flair. A better side vegetable selection would be nice. Front parking is tight. Out of towners would enjoy TexazGrill. read more

Very cowboyesk.... Their prime rib was absolutely phenomenal - seriously smoky and delicious. I was *blown away* by that. The chicken fried chicken sandwich, though? Eh, it was okay, nothing to write home about. I needed to doctor it up a bit - added some coleslaw (with a healthy dose of Tabasco ), because it needed a little something extra, The bun came dry. There was again tomato pickle, lettuce and onion on the side.The chicken was a bit greasy, and the mashed potatoes, while super delish and the gravy was amazing with some lumps and peels. The only downside was the wait time. It took about an hour to get our food, and the place wasn't even that busy. Sounds like they might have been training some new staff. Overall, though, the prime rib and mashed potatoes made it worth the visit! Highly recommend trying that. read more

Consistently good. No frills food with a country roadhouse style setting. Service is top notch. All the ladies work really hard and are super friendly. I love the filet mignon with 2 sides and biscuit (loads of leftovers). Thursday night only they have a BBQ special, which my husband loved. His usual is the ribeye so visiting the first time on a Thursday, he got to try to bbq special. We visit this place for quick easy and quality steaks without breaking the bank. read more

Parking is tight. The service was great. They only gave a few choices to go with the chicken fried chicken. I wanted mac snd cheese and asked if I could pay an upcharge to get Mac and cheese as a side. I was told no I would have to order it as a Appitzer and pay that price. The mac and cheese was the best thing. It was decent but wont drive 20 mins for the food. read more

A locally owned small business with a great reputation and long time history in the valley. The portions are huge and not diet friendly, but who goes for chicken fried steak when they are on a diet anyway? I recommend the chicken fried steak with gravy and mashed potatoes. Split it if you can! Portions are huge!! read more

Tried their signature chicken fried steak (CFS) with country potatoes, wife went for the grilled chicken sandwich. Everything was fresh and cooked to order. Wife loved her sandwich. The CFS was flavorful and the gravy nice and peppery. Best I've had in PHX. What kept it from being a solid 5 stars was the steak itself is paper thin and shrunk when cooked to leave all the edge breading empty of meat. I prefer the breading to be flaky like fried chicken. This was smooth like fish and chips. The flavor made up for it though. $50 for two people, to include a $15 t-shirt, is unheard of these days! Great value. We'll be back and look forward to trying the prime rib. read more

We went to Texaz twice this week for lunch. Wednesday special was Texaz Reuben and Thursday was Open Face Roast Beef Sandwich with mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy. These are 2 of our favorite specials (there are more Shrimp and Grits). We had the usual excellent service and went home with a to go box. We are regulars and always try to make it to the Oyster Shucking Event with former owner Steve Freidkin. Best Chicken Fried Steak in town! read more

First time trying this place and went with a couple friends. Portion sizes are HUGE and they are very generous with the sides. Each entree comes with two sides of your choice. Their specialty is the chicken fried steak, so that is what I went for. We shared it and amongst three people, we still had leftovers. Everything was pretty solid, can't go wrong with classic American food. read more

Texaz Grill - Chicken Fried Steak - Steakhouses Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I celebrated my 63rd birthday, here at Texaz Grill on October 8th. I ordered the chicken fried steak. It came with mashed potatoes and a choice of corn or salad as a side. The chicken fried steak was plentiful. The added gravy added to the flavor of the meat. My only gripe was that the patty could have used some seasoning. Beyond that, there was constant customers arriving. The decorations were all Texas related. The waitress told me that Monday was the only day the restaurant serves their famous fried chicken. Overall, I would consider returning in the near future. Just be aware of the lack of seasoning in their dishes. read more

Reservation system allowed me to book a table on Christmas Day. We got there and the restaurant was closed. Very disappointed, mostly with Yelp for this lack of oversight. In fact, there were at least 20 restaurants that were closed when we called and Google maps said they were open. Apparently nobody pays attention to this. We went to Wang's across the street. read more

Food and service was great I will be back for the ribs Its a nice family restaurant Pork chops are good as well read more

I would go back. The atmosphere is interesting, they have license plates hung up around the restaurant as well as taxidermy animals. It makes you want to order a beer. The server was a really nice lady. We ordered Mac and Cheese and she informed us that they put gravy in the Mac and cheese, which I found odd but ordered it anyway. After eating it, I wouldn't mind ordering it again. The chicken fried chicken was juicy. The mash potatoes are not mashed all the way, and had chunks of potatoes in it. I would go back, and try something else. read more

BETTER RESTAURANTS NEARBY !!! Good staff, kind and quick with service and food. The ambiance is a classic roadhouse vibe hard to mess that up. The problem started with the menu, the prices were not accurate to the bill which is ILLEGAL! We ordered the brisket sandwich and got 80% toast and two measly slices of brisket. With a side of 8 fries.. maybe. This was advertised as 20.95 but I was charged 21.95 The flavors are all there with great sauce but terrible portion sizes for the prices. I can think of 5 much better options across the street. read more

Me and my husband decided to finally stop by and try this place out for lunch. The location is good and the inside had nice decor. We were right away greeted and sat down. The place wasn't packed like I had anticipated. Meanwhile we waited closer to an hour for our food to arrive.. keep that in mind. I ordered the famous CFS which was okay and flavorless all around including the gravy. I am from southern Oklahoma. While waiting so long, the gravy had that dry film over the top like it had been sitting out. But good to know the mashed potatoes were made in-house cause I was pulling clumps of potato skins. The positive was the portion size. Could feed 2 people and have leftovers. On the other hand, my husband ordered a medium-rare Texaz Grill Burger with cheddar cheese. He ordered something so simple yet it came out cold and well-done ON A HOT DOG BUN with shredded cheese that had not been melted. His bun looks like it had a bite taken out of it too LOL Took me a lot not to laugh out loud when our food was brought to us because our poor server was already embarrassed it had taken so long and had to explain they had run out of hamburger buns.. during early lunch hour.. This place had nice people but the food was not up to expectations and why was everything got cold and dry when the place was not busy at all! Very disappointed but I see the humor and this is going to be a funny story to tell everyone! read more

We did the dinner chicken fried steak and split it. This consists of two chicken fried steaks smothered in gravy. I love gravy. We got mashed potatoes and corn as our sides. These were generous portions I had half of one of the chicken fried steaks and the boyfriend ate the rest the potatoes and corn were also great. The biscuits w honey so good. We also tried the frito pie it comes in the actual frito bag. We shared also was perfect which a tad more cheese but service was great and the place is awesomely decorated really has a good local vibe. Server was so kind and made you feel welcomed.

Chicken fried steak hangs off the platter. Gravy mash potatoes nothing compares. One day a week it's a special price.

We were visiting friends in Phoenix and they took us here, one of their favorite places. Fun place! Lots of Texas and Arizona memorabilia on the walls, homey and welcoming atmosphere. The server was attentive and non-optrusive. Food was delicious. I had the brisket sandwich...done to perfection! The only complaint (may be unfair to drop the number of stars for this.) I have is for their margarita (I am a expert margarita drinker!) I could barely drink it but wouldn't let it go to waste! Some margaritas have this strange taste, I think guave. I think this must be a southwest thing because I've experienced this before in Texas. I'll have to remember next time I'm there. read more

Very fun decor, as a former Texan I enjoyed it. Went with 9 other friends on a Sunday afternoon. They were very busy. We had to cram 10 of us into a table that should've seated 6-8. Our waiter was super nice and did a great job of handling our table, altho it took a looooonngg time to get our food. But everything our waiter provided was done quickly so the slowness must've been in the kitchen. The food, and there was lots of it, was good. Not the best chicken fried steak and gravy I've had, but it was good. All in all I'd say 3 of 5 stars. read more
