Customer Reviews
“Texas steaks like I remember from my youth. Huge, juicy, tender, and that taste only fresh Texas beef has.”
“Worth a trip of more than 50 miles!“
“This little spot is a comfort food oasis on highway 181 between San Antonio and Corpus Christi.”
“I had a hamburger with onion rings. The hamburger was old-fashioned, like homemade. The food was served hot and was excellent.”
