    Yo Y.O. House Salad
    Teresa H.

    This was my first time dining here. My husband would get his birthday dinner here when he lived in the area. So now he got to take me to his favorite Dallas steakhouse! Inside was smaller than I expected but very romantic and cozy. Our waiter wasn't as personable as the one behind us. We overheard the other waiter go into more detail on specials and add on options. We started with some old fashioned with our app. We got the pork belly as an appetizer. A prefect starter. And we had salads to be healthy. I loved the YO house salad the pecans and the goat cheese so so fresh. My husband got the Cesar salad. For the main... well it's a steakhouse. But if I'm living in Texas I'll be coming back here to try their other great beef cuts. I went wild... I got the wild game platter. The venison was very good a little too peppery for me. And the brandy cream gravy was not smooth as I would like. The bison filet was delicious. And the duck sausage was very good too. My husband got the cowboy ribeye very delicious as always. We paired the mains with a delicious Italian red. Cheers! I had enough room for the oh so light crème brûlée. So so good. It's a must. I hope we'll be coming back I want to try their elk and any of the beef cuts... okay all of them. During dinner the pace was great super relaxing atmosphere. We weren't rushed so we got to enjoy all the courses. And oh the bread was warm and the butter was perfect.

    Espresso Crusted Elk Tenderloin

    First visit and will return. The Elk was incredibly tender, cooked to an easy mid-rare. The Port Wine reduction was a well received sweet balance to the espresso crust. Very much enjoyed this meal. I added a traditional cream spinach and steamed asparagus. Service was fast, friendly and professional. The dining room has a wonderful upscale Texas feel. And for a native New Yorker the price point for dinner and drinks was very fair.

    Y.O is amazing from the incredible service , to the mouth watering food .My husband and I stopped by and had dinner at the bar and watched the World Cup , Argentina and Cape Verde were playing .Y.O has a great set up to watch the World Cup and unlike a lot of other places they have no cover charge and they have not raised their prices during the World Cup.We like to sit at the bar and the bartender Joel always goes above and beyond and makes us feel welcome and provides great service as well as helps us with drink recommendation's .The Food was incredible as usual , we had Venison Rolls which are a must and we shared a Rib Eye and enjoyed mashed potatoes and bacon wrapped Brussels Sprouts .Also amazing drinks !I really appreciate that we were also able to see a great game in such enjoyable surroundings.I highly recommend not only during the World Cup but any dat of the year .You will be treated like family and will look forward to coming again .

    Y.O. is the quintessential Dallas steakhouse. Two words Absolutely Amazing. My son was in Dallas on business and decided to try Y.O. and had the filet which was one of the best ever. This is a must visit steak house in Dallas!

    Buffalo Filet Mignon
    Carlo B.

    Food, service and ambience all give stars. Waitress gave excellent recommendations with the venison bites and buffalo fillet. Really unique dishes and experience , leave feeling healthy and full. Manager James came to talk to us too and topped off the experience by making sure everything was great. Highly recommend this Texas steakhouse!

    After exploring Dallas I was hungry and looking for a good meal. Luckily for me, this place was right around the corner. I walked in around 5 o'clock on a Sunday. I was by myself, but I was seated immediately. I believe my server's name was Paul and he was amazing. Absolutely a great server so personable, had so many great suggestions, just wonderful. I started with a margarita and some cheese balls, I believe they're pimento cheese balls. Both were delicious and I highly recommend the cheese pull in the cheese balls was unmatched! For my meal, I ordered the fried lobster roll. The dish served exactly what it said. It was in the description and the first three bites were amazing but after that, I started to want just a regular lobster roll and not the texture of the fried lobster anymore. So 100% this dish is what it says it is and I still think it's worth ordering. I just don't think it's something I would order again. The menu at Y.O. Steakhouse is huge and so many dishes came out that looked incredible. I would absolutely come back if I go back to Dallas for a trip. It's also super conveniently located by some other places where you could grab a drink afterwards or some shops where you could peek in and get a cowboy hat or boots also, it's not too far from the JFK assassination Museum.

    My husband and I were extremely excited to try this steak house and were left underwhelmed unfortunately. We got the Soul Belly as an appetizer, if you're looking to pay about $20 for 4 bite size pieces of pork belly on a massive bed of collar greens than order up! The flavor and presentation are severely lacking. My husband ordered the bone in ribeye steak cooked medium with Au Poivre, he said this was the first time he had ever been to a steakhouse and felt the need to add pepper to his steak. I ordered the Mixed Grill, trio of wild game cooked rare +. The flavors were good but the buffalo filet that they claim you can cut with a butter knife is a far cry from that, I struggled cutting it with my steak knife. Our waiter walked by our table numerous times without acknowledging or even looking over at us almost as if we weren't there, I had to flag a bus boy to box up our food. It was extremely loud where I could hardly hear my husband, we will not be returning to this restaurant and sadly don't recommend it as we did not have a pleasant experience.

    Surf and Turf with chicken fried lobster
    Jeffrey G.

    Wife and I just had our new years eve dinner here and it was outstanding. Our waitress was Megan, and she was a great, she answered all our questions , gave us info on certain meals, and gave us some good advice on ordering sides. My drink (revolver old fashioned) was exceptionally made and tasted great. For appetizer I had the Shrimp & Grits, the gravy was so very very good and the grits were excellent, I will need to go back and order that for an entrée, YES it was that good. For an entrée I had the Surf and Turf. The steak was cooked the exact medium that I wanted it and the chicken fried lobster was very moist and tender. For dessert the Dulce de Leche Cheesecake was a little on the very sweet side, but was also really good. The dinner was pricey, but we really enjoyed our meal and look forward to returning.

    Maple Dijon Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Bacon
    Shanelle S.

    Found this place on Yelp as a top rated steakhouse in Dallas. I visited on a Sunday evening without a reservation. To my surprise the place was pretty empty. My guest and I were seated immediately. I ordered a margarita/martini that came out pretty quickly. We ordered the ribeye to share plus a side of Brussel sprouts. We added the bone marrow butter (I believe) and it added a GREAT flavor. I was a little disappointed in the Brussel sprouts (took away one star), as I felt they were pretty flavorless. They seemed to be cooked in bacon and had bacon on them, but they lacked any flavor outside of salt, butter and pepper. The inside of the building was nice and relatively clean. It wasn't what I would ideally think of as a "steakhouse" based on the menu prices. Theh prices were a little higher compared to the way the establishment looked, but it wasn't dirty or unclean, just not as fancy as the prices would suggest. Overall the customer service was really good and steak was amazing. Had the sprouts been more flavorful I would've gladly given 5 stars but they definitely took away from the enjoyment. I would be open to returning and maybe trying a different side next time instead.

    Berry Blast Mocktail
    Rachel S.

    I recently had the chance to visit Y.O. Ranch Steakhouse for dinner and it was a wonderful experience! We started the night with drinks and I had the Berry Blast mocktail per our waiter's recommendation. It was refreshing and tasted like fresh blueberries rather than being artificial. For our appetizers, we had the Texas Hill Country Quail Medallions and Y.O. House Salad. The quail medallions were excellent. They were tender, flavorful and I definitely understood why they are a popular choice. The salad was also very good, I particularly enjoyed the candied pecans and goat cheese, it was a classic. For our entrées, we ordered the Prime Ribeye and Prime New York Strip steaks, medium rare and medium well. Both were cooked perfectly. We also specified to include the Bone Marrow Butter on top of the steaks, which was absolutely my favorite part of the night! I highly recommend adding it to your steak to give it that extra flavor and richness. For our sides, we spilt the Gouda Mac & Cheese and the Mashed Potatoes. The potatoes were very good and a classic side dish for a steakhouse. The mac and cheese however was another one of my favorite parts of the night! It comes with large pasta shells, delicious cheese and a layer of thicker cheese on top. I absolutely loved it! Lastly, for our dessert, we had the Dulce de Leche Cheesecake and White Chocolate Macadamia NutBread Pudding. The cheesecake was made very well but the caramel flavor was particularly strong for my tastes. I understand that the dulce de leche flavor is caramel but I believe it would have been better as a plain cheesecake with caramel drizzle versus caramel cheesecake with caramel drizzle. The bread pudding was absolutely delicious! It was warm, served with a massive scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. It was a great way to end the meal. Overall, I had a great experience and meal here. Our waiter, Jorge, was wonderful, took care of us and gave us great recommendations. I look forward to coming back sometime soon! Thank you!!

    Texas Hill Country Quail Medallions
    Allyson B.

    We had such a great time at this steakhouse! Kicked things off with the quail medallions - tender, flavorful, and topped with a rich, savory gravy that made them even better. For mains, we sampled a little bit of everything: the prime burger on brioche bun (juicy and packed with great flavor), a fresh and hearty steak Cobb salad, and the fried lobster roll sandwich on a brioche hoagie bun - which was every bit as rich and delicious as it sounds. The crispy fries on the side sealed the deal. On top of all that, the service was absolutely phenomenal -- friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Great food, great atmosphere, and we will definitely be back!

    Retirement dinner for 16.

    Cannot say enough about the extraordinary service and food our group of 16 enjoyed at a well-loved co-worker's retirement dinner on Monday evening. Michael was wonderful to work with in the planning - very responsive and accommodating! Neesie absolutely took the best care of our every need during the dinner - was personable, detail-oriented, and a true partner in pulling off an amazing evening. I unfortunately did not get the name of our in- room (I believe we were in The Lodge) bartender, but she did a fantastic job! Krystle, the GM introduced herself upon my arrival and then checked back in on our group to ensure our needs were met. Thank you all for making the evening absolutely perfect! Could not have asked for more. Kim Wilson-Kaufman

    Ribeye
    Zain P.

    I had a great experience at Y.O. Ranch Steakhouse in Dallas. If you're looking for a classic Texas steakhouse with a unique twist, this place really stands out. The ribeye is the highlight for me and easily one of the best things on the menu. It's cooked perfectly and has incredible flavor. What makes this spot even more interesting is that they offer a wide variety of wild game like venison, elk, buffalo, and other meats you don't see at most steakhouses, which makes it a fun place to try something different if you're feeling adventurous. Overall it's a great place for a big steak dinner and a true Texas style dining experience. The staff is friendly and explains the menu very well. The ambiance is super TEXAN so you must try if you're in the area!

    Y.O. Ranch Steakhouse Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - Y.O. Ranch Steakhouse

    Is the "buffalo" steak from an American bison?

    Yes, we get it from Comanche Buffalo from Lawton Oklahoma

    Are there gluten-free options? Gluten (even from soy, Worcestershire, or teriyaki sauces) can cause my wife problems.

    Yes, The majority of the menu. Just tell the server, Tony

    Do they have a kids menu or kids options?

    I want to say no, but the meals can be divided between adult and child

    Trying to plan a trip now. Would anyone consider this restaurant low key? We are okay with spending the money but don't want to be in a pretentious environment like other places I've read about for a great steak.

    Wife and I ate there in shorts and t-shirts. Maybe a little under dressed but not turned away.

    I see that the 38oz tomahawk ribeye is priced at market rate, does anyone know the ballpark/average price?

    Tonight it was $99 and we were advised to expect 10oz of bone. I had the 20oz ribeye instead and it was flawless.

Everything comes in large bags that has colored twisty ties. Those ties tell you what you have in the bag. Anyhoo, We got some incredible meats.

    As Tina Turner sang, "Simply the best! Better than all the rest!" That's Fearings. While the menu…read moredoes change some, fortunately there's some staples you can always count on. Great location. Amazing service. Phenomenal food. We were out and about so I surprised my wife for lunch at her favorite spot. We pull up to valet and are greeted with a smile. Greeted again as we enter the breathtaking lobby, a common photo-op for date nights and family gatherings. We walk through the bar to the receptionist, "reservation?" "No maam, we're just dropping in." "Two of you?" "Yes maam!" "Great follow me." We get a romantic booth on the wall with a view of the windows and the kitchen. There's several groups having business lunches and in front of us the two cutest ladies who have probably been best friends for 50+ years having lunch and celebrating one of their birthdays. We're greeted again by one of our servers who takes drink orders. We both order sparkling water with lime, and I also ask for iced tea. I ask the waiter "is it a brewed flavored tea by chance?" "No sir. It's a black tea." I reply, "you guys used to serve the most amazing ginger peach tea of which I became quite the connoisseur." He replies, "oh we still offer that through out the hotel. I'll get you a glass." "Really?!?! That would be perfect!" He then returns with our drinks and brings out their famous breads and butter. They are all incredible, but my personal favorite is the jalapeño cornbread. It's a game changer! He informs us it's restaurant week, which we've always heard of but never taken part in one. Three course meal, includes dessert, for $39 per person. Their offer is some of their top hits so we're stoked! We both get a cup of their world famous Dean's tortilla soup. It's non-negotiable. You've got to get it. We then added a Southwest Caesar salad to share, not part of the offer, which they split into two plates without us asking. Next the entrees come out. I got the Dr Pepper braise Rosewood Ranch Short Ribs with 'Loaded' Whipped Potatoes, Glazed Heirloom Carrots and Crispy Tobacco Onions. When I say this was a game changer and not to be missed, I can emphasize it enough. This entree is probably Dean's most popular and for good reason. Funny enough, while the short rib is a game changer, the sides should have won a Grammy for best supporting role. They were incredible. I saved a piece of the cornbread just to sop up my lunch and proudly gave myself a pat on the back for such a stellar idea. My wife had the Apricot Glazed Bay of Fundy Salmon on Field Pea Salad, Pepita Pesto and Buttermilk Fried Okra. She couldn't stop talking about it. Admittedly, I'm not a salmon fan, but it was very good. Once again the okra and sides were a showstopper. NOTE: one of our favorite things about Fearing's is their French pressed pot of coffee. It's exceptional. So without hesitation, knowing we probably couldn't finish a glass due to our existing gluttony, we didn't give up like a bunch of sissies, no we pressed on. It's a marathon, not a sprint. We got our pot of coffee and await the pièce de résistance, dessert! For Dessert, I had Granny Fearing's Banana Pudding with Toasted Meringue and Cinnamon Sugar Beignets. OMG! So good it will make you kiss yo momma! Seriously, if you've given up too early and missed this special treat then you've got to man up and stay the course, the third course. Again, it's a marathon so stay focused, don't overindulge and devour everything. To go bags are totally acceptable. My wife had a dessert I haven't seen before, but she absolutely loved hers. It's was a s'mores chocolate cakes with a chocolate ganache warm sauce poured over. While the presentation left us speechless, the flavor exceeded our already high expectations. To put icing on the cake, one of the managers brought me another brewed peach tea and we discussed how much I love it and that the company was purchased by Starbucks and ceased to exist. Fearings and several others used to use them and I could spot it in an instant. I told her I purchased a stash before they went out of business. She then told me the brand they use and even came back and surprised me with a sealed bag of the tea leaves to brew at home. THAT is the typical every day experience everyone has at Fearings and THAT's WHY WE KEEP COMING BACK. If we were offered one last meal, our family would choose Fearings. We come here just because, for birthday's, anniversaries, business, and any other time we can find an excuse. It's simply the best!

    Another amazing meal at Fearings. This time I came for lunch and had a great time. The atmosphere…read moreis very nice- sophisticated and elegant but relaxed. Our servers were great- very hospitable and friendly. I had the Dr Pepper short rib that is really tasty. The s'mores desert is also very good- make sure you get it!

    The Ranch is a long-standing restaurant in Irving-Las Colinas, which is a very popular place for…read moreafter work Happy Hour. Recently, I had lunch here, and they now have a new farm to table menu that really exceeded my expectations. The Ranch has reinvented itself many times, and now it's a restaurant I would visit for the food AND atmosphere. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - At its core, it's a bar with several indoor and outdoor dining areas with a country theme. The Ranch is so versatile that you can host a private event while people dine in the main area while others hang out at the bar. There's also a charming outdoor area that is nice if the weather is cool. Best of all - it's full of people and energy. 1 Star. Service - Our server was great. We explained the concept, went over the menu, and while a large table occupied his time, several of the staff were helpful. Everyone was dressed in Cowboy/Ranch gear. Texas Southern Hospitality is real. 1 Star. Food - My most recent visit was like visiting a new restaurant. The Ranch's menu has changed, and everything was new. I started with the pork belly appetizers, which was a great start to meal. The tender pork meat had a layer of sweet + salty belly that melts in your mouth. I went with the Barbacoa Grilled Cheese that was one of the best I've ever had. The barbacoa (shredded BBQ beef) was the star and was better than any brisket grilled cheese I've had. The sourdough was grilled with lots of butter, so after devouring the sandwich I had to wash my hands. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Absolutely. I had been to The Ranch so many times I considered a place to gather for Happy Hour. Not anymore. The new menu is incredible, and I can't wait to return. 1 Star.

    Second visit to The Ranch in Las Colinas and still can't figure out the hype. Came in after seeing…read morethe Cowgirl Dinner on TikTok -- steak, Caesar salad, fries and a margarita for $30. Ordered two. The Vaquero Shrimp were the undisputed highlight -- genuinely outstanding. Everything else fell flat. Steak was bland, fries arrived cold. Two visits, same story. My guess is the overpriced menu items deliver what the atmosphere promises but the $30 deal is a value trap. The Ranch looks the part but the kitchen isn't backing it up at this price point. SAS Verdict: Not Approved. The Vaquero Shrimp alone can't carry the whole meal.

It also took some time to get our order placed. The jager schnitzel with the mushroom sauce was tasty. I preferred that the sauce come on the side so that the schnitzel doesn't get soggy. The schnitzel was breaded and cooked wonderfully. The potato salad wasn't anything special and I wasn't a big fan of it unfortunately. I added cheese to my spaetzle, and it was still very bland. The pretzel with beer cheese came out cold which I wasn't expecting. The flavor of the beer cheese was not great and I couldn't finish it. The ambience inside is very lively and fun and I love all of the decor. The service was very slow and not the friendliest.

When inquiring, our waitress had no clue of the wines being offered and there are not that many; and while I do not complain about prices typically, $18.00 for a 6oz serving of their top German 'Spatlese' is....... I had Weinerschitzel (sic) and my wife had duck; her duck was excellent, but was served in an appetizer portion while my veal was more than ample, but unremarkable......the potato pancakes were hockey puck sized and about as tough..... of the meal was the purple cabbage-believe it or not!! For a German Restaurant that features an ample menu of desserts-no one asked, so we did not bother! They have been in business for 32 years and the business has sticky tables (at least ours did) and is just plain tired......it is really a beer bar that serves mediocre food-SAD!!

It's located in a small strip shopping center that almost looks like it's attached to a church. The staff is so friendly and helpful. We've tried the regular beef and the buffalo burgers (burgers are huge - hubby and I usually split one), tator tots - it's a huge portion with plenty to share and the Mama's fruit pies are to die for! So far, we've tried the tri-berry, blueberry, strawberry, cherry, apple and peach. My goal is to try them all! We usually order "to-go" so we reheat up the pies a little bit (again sharing one cuz they're big) and add a little bit of vanilla ice cream - delicioso!! You can't make a wrong decision when ordering off of their menu! Be sure to grab some meat from the butcher case for your grilling pleasure. Everything we've ever ordered is delicious.

Locals know about this place. They have specials i believe everyday. The day I went it was like a swine burger or hog burger dint really remember but something like that. Our host said the bison burger was the way to go. I ordered that and onion rings. Burger came out pretty quickly and at first bite I was hooked. Fantastic burger well made an seasoned. Onion rings were on point the lettuce and tomatoes were fresh also. It came on potato bread bun I think also the bun was nice and toasted All around great burger! Also got a fied pied pecan flavor. To say its rich is an understatement I could only eat one of these a year probably or risk diabetes. It was pretty good. Id try the apple one next or chocolate.

We arrived at 2pm and they didn't have the server staff going to full power, but we so enjoyed the art deco environment, food, drinks and staff service overall. Just had to wait a bit here and there for a server to return when we were ready for more drink orders from the bar. All bartenders and servers were very skilled and customer service oriented, Even Coast probably needed one server more or something as it got full by 3 as the hostess had told me. Love the art deco mermaid pins the female staff wore, plus other unique thought out accoutrements. We like to share plates and loved everything we had! The oysters, burrata, smoked clam chowder, yellowtail curd, smoked salmon dip with homemade potato chips, and the fried cod, frites and Cole slaw. Some of us had cocktails- all great, then we all switched to wine, then finished with espresso martini and amazing dessert. Everything was expertly hand crafted (cocktails), and the food expertly prepared so our high praise and compliments to the Chef, Sous, Cooks, Servers, Hostess and Restaurant Manager, who did stop by and check on us. Thanks for a great experience! We'll return!

    Friend recommended we try this place over going to Kenny's....it didn't even compare. The food was…read moreexcellent. There's just a thoughtfulness at Kenny's you just don't find here. I got a lemon dropped....it came with a huge piece of cotton candy (aka "citrus candy floss") on top that the waiter didn't bother to tell me I need to push down into the glass. He did warn me it was going to be an extremely sweet drink....and it was. I then thought I'd try a white cosmo. Good drink, but they use a craft ice cube with a flower in it....and then put it in a shallow glass. So at some point, the ice cube was just resting on my nose so I could drink. How has no one noticed this flaw? He preferred the smoke signal over the long watch. He said the long watch had a flavor he just didn't particularly enjoy. Shared some appetizers: cheeseburger was pretty good. He really liked the oysters...and that they serve the mignonette on the side. And he really, really enjoyed the mignonette. I don't enjoy salmon, but thought we'd try the dip. It didn't turn me into a salmon lover, but he thought it was pretty good. I got the bucatini and it was delicious. Great chunks of crab. I was pretty full so took most of it home....it did not reheat as well as I would've like. But, it's a cream sauce, so that's expected. He got the tagliatelle. He also enjoyed it, but probably wouldn't get it again. He just wasn't blown away. Just a lot of little things that would make me drive down the road rather than come back.
