My daughter and I sat at the bar. The food was excellent and the drinks were delicious. The bar tender recommended some pear drink for my daughter, and it was amazing and tasted very refreshing for an alcoholic beverage. I ordered the espresso martini, which I am very picky about, and it was probably the best one I ever had. Very dangerous drinks. Needless to say, we had a very enjoyable evening and next time I'm back in town, this will be a must visit restaurant for sure! The service was spot on! read more

The service was amazing, the staff was super friendly and very attentive to us and other customers. For this 5/5! The ambiance is a bit of a mixed experience. The restaurant itself is nice, the decoration seems a bit odd but overall matches the atmosphere of the whole place. The restroom is what felt a bit disappointing, it's shared with the restaurant next door which is totally fine, but none of both stalls had functioning paper towel dispensers and both were also kind of messy. For a restaurant that aspires to give this high end image, they really need to work on details like this. 3/5. The food was good, I liked it and I think the portions were good too, however they felt a bit overpriced for what they offered, but that's only a matter of perspective, I guess. Like I said, the flavor was good. 4/5. read more

Amazing food and service and the ambiance was so relaxing!! I would highly recommend. Never expected this in Coleman. Very nice surprise. read more

Talk about fine dining in a small town. This place was incredible! We started with the crab arancini and ordered a second one because it was so good! For the first time ever, I ordered a pork chop at a restaurant and it was delicious. The jalapeño Mac and cheese was the perfect complement. I actually liked that more than the Mac and cheese side dish. The potatoes with bacon and duck fat was our favorite side dish. Then to finish it off, we did the frozen peanut butter chocolate and bread pudding desserts that ended this experience in a high note. The one hour drive to come eat here was well worth it. Absolutely recommend this great place! read more

Umm....I'm sorry what? I was completely blown away and am mad at myself for waiting this long to go! This place is so good. The service was great. It is just a small town steakhouse. Small but intimate and adorable. You always hear about the big steakhouses in Dallas or Austin and they're great but I'm a sucker for a small town one. Everything was great. My husband said it was the best steak he's ever had (and he's had plenty). The food took a while to come out which many would see as a downfall but I appreciated it because it means it is made to order which is how it should be. The only thing I will say is that the Mac and cheese was the low light of the meal. Not that it was bad but it could definitely use some salt. I can't wait to go back! read more

Someone in Coleman knows what they're doing... Red wine was served at 56 degrees. Cocktails are innovative and unique. We went early with no reservation (seemed frowned upon) so the bartender was our server. She was all-encompassing knowledgeable on food and beverage which was refreshing for the area. Cute blonde, didn't catch her name. House wine was very good. Food was excellent. Only The Hideout in Brownwood has a more sophisticated palate for the surrounding 50 miles. We will definitely be back. Ambiance, Quality, and Service all top notch. read more

The Black Cur is a newly opened steakhouse in Coleman, TX. Owned by the same people who also own Rancho Loma and Rancho Pizzeria (both fantastic in their own right.) Highly recommend a reservation as there are very few tables to be had for spontaneous patrons. And for those wondering, A Black Cur is a type of dog (usually used to hunt) that happens to look remarkably like a slightly smaller and slimmer Rhodesian Ridgeback. Now you know! Atmosphere: Set alongside its partner restaurant Rancho Pizzeria, it is located in a renovated old building downtown. The restaurant is well manicured and has a very open feeling to it. There is a long bar that runs almost the full length of the main dining hall that allows several customers to sit and eat and drink. 1 Star Service: The service was great. It is not a fast-food restaurant. They warn you of this. They will space out your dishes so you can casually converse and take your time on your courses. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. 2 Stars Food: This is where it gets good! Every single dish we had (and boy did we splurge) was top-notch. We started off with 4 separate appetizers. Yes, there were only the two us . First was the Spicy BBQ Shrimp. I wouldn't necessarily call it spicy but it was extremely tasty. Basically a Cajun spiced grilled shrimp in a tomato-based sauce. Secondly we had the RL Ricotta Gnocchi ( I assume the RL stands for Rancho Loma, where the dish most likely originates.) The gnocchi was the perfect amount of chewy and melt in your mouth. It was covered in a Bolognese meat sauce and Parmesan cheese. Thirdly we had the Semi-dried tomato Caprese. It had a basil arugula pesto and pine nuts. I just wished it had been bigger. I could have eaten two of these. I don't know what else they had in the pesto but it was absolutely divine. An almost citrusy addition to the combo of mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil. Lastly we had what I consider to be the absolute best French Onion soup to ever hit my palate. Buttery smooth garlicky broth with just the right cut of onions and covered with a thick layer of the gooiest gruyere cheese and baguette this side of the Palace of Versailles. It was THAT good. Ok then. How about the rest of the course? We shared our last two courses. We opted for the 18oz Beeman NY Strip which was covered with a decadent yet earthy mix of wild sautéed mushrooms. Cooked to perfection and then served with a super buttery and cheesy potato gratin. This was more than enough for 2 people. We were going to skip dessert but decided against it. We had the burnt cheesecake. It was quite good. 2 Stars Overall: A superlative dining experience which was also well priced for the dedication and effort put into the food. We will definitely return. 5 Stars read more

I highly recommend this restaurant. Not only does it have a great vibe, but the food is delicious. and the service is impeccable.

Just finished our meal, one of the finest meals I've ever eaten in a restaurant! I'm just sorry I live 1041miles away. I had the Flat Iron Steak perfection, my brother had the Picahana Steak, Perfection, my sister had the Seafood Risotto, Perfection & my sister in law had the Black Cod, just perfect. We choose the Brownie w/Whipped Cream for dessert, so glad we split 2. Service was fantastic, drinks from the bar were spot on. I will be back with my wife. If your reading this and live in the area just go and try it. read more

This place is off the chain!!! My wife was mad that we drove all the way to Coleman to eat a steak, but she claimed that was the best steak she had EVER eaten! Just outstanding... read more

Ive had food across the globe. I've been to 3 Michelin stars restaurants. Multiple. Food at Black Cur was fantastic. It was a great combination of earthy, gamey, yet freshly innovative combinations of flavors. It was a very very enjoyable dinner experience, who knew it'd be in Coleman, TX. If you get just one thing for dinner, do the bread pudding. Or the ribeye. Life changing. Their new chef is blowing it up. Makoa even came out to say hi and presented the dishes. Ribeye is phenomenal. Coleman is going to be the new Inn in Little Washington. Small town, fantastic food. read more

Great service and food in a relaxed atmosphere . I highly recommend it for a quite evening out

Wow! I was blown away. I stayed the night in Coleman, this cute small town with wonderful citizens. Who knew a tiny town would have this really nice restaurant with scrumptious cuisine. My server/bartender, Boone, was great to talk to and a great pear martini maker. I didn't eat the steak, but heard it is good. I had the blackened catfish. I changed up the sides and added the brussel sprout appetizer. It was so good. I just about licked the plate. I had the charred romaine salad. So so good. read more

Finally got to eat here this last weekend. You MUST have reservations- they had to politely turn away a few while we were dining there. I must say- this place is worth the hype! Top shelf type place, and chef made food. The Brussel sprouts were hands down THE BEST I HAVE EVER EATEN! In fact I'm wishing I had some right now. read more

Hands down the best restaurant in Coleman if you're after an elevated dining experience. The seasonal menu is always on point and fresh. You'd be hard pressed to find a meal this good in Dallas or Houston! It's worth the trip. Pro tip, stay the night and have lunch at their sister restaurant, Rancho Pizzeria on your way out. read more

WOW! We have always loved Rancho Pizzeria and this is such a compliment and one step up. Same type of beautiful atmosphere. The food was amazing! Started with the Shishito peppers and they were so good. Crab Cakes were mostly crabmeat. Brussel Sprouts best ever! Steak was perfect and flavorful. Bread pudding was unique and fabulous! Do yourself a favor and take the drive to Coleman. You won't be disappointed. Everything we ordered was 5 star! read more

This restaurant is amazing! Being from San Diego CA i have been completely unimpressed with Abilene's seafood. Until now, the Bronzino at this restaurant was amazing. This place is far better than Perinis and Cooper Creek in Abilene. We will be coming here from Abilene much more often. Brussels sprouts were also to die for! read more

There aren't enough stars for this wonderful restaurant. The service was outstanding. The food is like the best you can find in a big city. Atmosphere is very very cool and upscale. Steaks were perfectly cooked. Every app mouth-watering. Yummy cocktails - the pear martinis are addictive but watch out! The fries nice and crispy, Brussels sprouts amazing!! read more

If you have not tried this place, YOU ARE MISSING OUT! This little upscale steak restaurant is delicious. In fact, we have not found anything on the menu yet that is not absolutely tasty. An small upscale place in a small town that serves up big flavors! read more

A small space but large when it comes to flavor and service. Pricey, but we felt it was worth it. We will go again.

I was very disappointed. if you want a glass of wine, you only have one choice of red and one choice of white for a glass. All other wines you have to buy by the bottle. That is just wrong. I wanted a Cabernet and I could only get a Pinot Noir which I declined and had water There were three of us, and we all ordered their hamburger cooked medium. They all came out seared on each side and raw meat in the middle They did take them back and bring back ones that were cooked to order read more

Been to Black Cur many times and it never disappoints! The food is always amazing and they have a great drink menu. The staff are wonderful.

We love the black cur. Everything we have had is good. The drinks are good, and the food is very good. I highly recommend.

My husband and I came here in April 2021 for our last dinner together before tying the knot. Great food is an understatement. My husband is so picky and in his own words, "This is the best steak I've ever eaten!" It was so so so good. The portion sizes are perfect so we could even have dessert. And omg the bread pudding was the best! Thank you for a very memorable evening. And to the couple who gave us $100 toward our dinner, we're still trying to pick our jaws up off the floor. Thank you! read more

Came here on a date night with the Mrs. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and service. It's a more upscale establishment than some might be used to experiencing. I found the prices within reason of what I'd expect at a similar restaurant in Dallas, Houston, etc. Same with the overall vibe. The grass fed burger is exceptional, zero complaints. Our appetizer was the crab cake which was really good also. I thought the fun fries were an interesting touch but I did like them quite a bit. We will be back many times I'm sure. FYI - Call for a reservation or message them on Facebook. read more

This restaurant will go down as one of the best meals I have ever eaten. Everything we ordered was amazing and perfectly balanced in every flavor. I will be dreaming of this food and can not wait to make my next reservation. The ambiance was gorgeous and it felt so special to eat here. Even when the restaurant is full, it isn't load or boisterous. I can't say anything bad about this place and I can't wait to go again. read more

Heard wonderful things about this place and their cocktails. Went in and there were about five people in a restaurant that could hold about 50+ people. Simply wanted to have a cocktail. Manager in charge told us he could not accommodate us. So we left and took our money elsewhere. read more

We (8 people) tried to go in for a drink at 6:00 pm. The place only had 6 people in the restaurant/bar and said they could not seat us. So, we left even though they could have made some money. read more

Excellent dinner and drinks. Pear martini very good. Filet excellent. Go to Coleman go to Black Cur.

Hands down the best food in the area! I have had steaks from both Ruth's Chris and Del Frisco's and neither compare to the food I enjoyed here! So nice to have something of this caliber so close to home. read more

We were visiting Abilene from Arizona. We decided to head out to Coleman for a rodeo. We happened upon Black Cur Steak on Yelp and decided to try it out.

Who would've thought little Coleman would have a great restaurant like this? We had a large group but they took good care of us all and every single meal was a delight. read more

I wish I could leave a better review. Had high hopes but underdelivered in every way. Group of 8 and they would only allow for reservations at 5:30 or 8:00. Reluctantly chose 8 pm. Arrived at 8 and were told it would be just a few minutes, so all 8 of us stood at the very small entry waiting for our table. Seated at 8:30 after a very uncomfortable 30 minutes of watching everyone eat. Once seated our cocktails were spilled, which left everything very sticky with no clean up. Ordered four different appetizers, all delicious and the highlight of the meal. We then waited until 9:30 to be served our entrees. Of course, all but one ordered steaks, one undercooked (ordered well)and two over cooked (ordered med rare). The undercooked steak was sent back and we didn't see it for another 20 minutes so we didn't dare send the other two back. Another high note, the sea bass was great! All the entrees came out over a 30 minute period, so the idea of waiting for everyone to receive their meal was not possible, as the steak that was sent back did not arrive back at the table until just before 10. I thought maybe they were short handed, but saw three different people that were just checking with tables but somehow overlooked ours. I was hoping for a very memorable evening for our out of town guests but sadly it was everything but. No complimentary cocktail for having to wait , no apology or even a thanks for coming in. Their regulars seemed to be getting a lot of attention, and everyone was served before us in the restaurant, even 2 and 4 tops that came in much later than us. Hopefully it is just a case of a bad night or they just aren't good with large groups. read more
