What a nice little country style restaurant tucked away in Somerset right off of Hwy 1604! Perfect ambiance. Top notch friendly and attentive service. Food was delicious and potions were great! My son had the chicken and waffles and he said loved the hollandaise sauce they put over the perfectly fried moist chicken. I had the chicken fried steak and eggs and the crunch of the batter and moist steak was delicious. Can't wait to come back and try a few other offerings on the menu. read more

Their orange chicken and rice is what's for dinner today. It was new on the menu and is one of my new favorites here. The service is great and the staff is too.

Y'all, the biscuits! I recommend this restaurant equally for the food, folks, and decor. You gotta see this place to believe it, inside and out. I call it native rustic, but lots to see here. Loved the canoeing bear. But very clean. Everyone we spoke to was friendly, nice, and helpful. It's a breakfast and lunch kind of place, with brekkie all day. A nice variety on the menu. Good omelette, burger, and breakfast sandwich. Large portions, so won't leave hungry. Good fries, but the hash browns could use some of the same seasonings. All cooked well and served hot. Drinks in huge glasses. Did I mention the biscuits? Light, fluffy, fall apart goodness. Next trip will get the biscuits and gravy just for those. Gonna have to make a few trips to try the lunch items too. Well done! read more

What a great little restaurant Cactus Country Kitchen is. It's hard to believe that this little restaurant is in Somerset. Cute decor inside and out. The food is really good and homemade. I had the two eggs over medium which I'll have to say were a little on over easy side but we're still good. The hash browns were delicious, sausage and bacon along with a homemade biscuit made it a complete breakfast. I promise, you won't leave hungry. Now the breakfast I just described is called the pretty cowgirl on the menu. I would change the name next time the menu is done. Because that's silly. Other than that the food was delicious and the service was very good. I know I'll be back again. read more

The meatloaf plate was disappointing meat was all one color resembled a frozen dinner and tasted the same ,was dry over salted as was gravy did not taste country style or homemade.(CK). My Ruben with frys was very good but was over salted as well , It was over sauced making it soggy (maybe serve sauce in a ramekin). Service was good. Was unsure if the small recessed area had three tables but only two were Useable , the third table was covered with unwrapped flatware and napkins , but even worse was a bus tub full of dirty dishes sitting on a broken chair , very unprofessional + the area was not set for service while customers waited for a table. After seating two at each sm table the manager removed the dirty dishes and broken chair to seat two paying customers. Good job!! customer space is not for work space. $$$ Decor from the outside to all interior screams country. We will be back and hope you monitor the chefs salt use. TY read more

We were visiting San Antonio area & looked up a lunch spot we have never been to. I was very impressed & so glad we chose Cactus Country Kitchen. The venue was cute & felt homie. The southern hospitality was pure & so kind. I felt like I was at my mom's house & she was cooking for me. The owner was so sweet & very helpful. The food was PHENOMENAL. I got the Club Sandwich, spouse got the Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs & baby got Pancakes. My sandwich was FRESH meat/produce, perfectly seasoned, melted cheese & toasted with the best choice of bread, sourdough! with a hint of butter taste & was not over done or undercooked. This was meal was easily 10/10. The Chicken fried steak and eggs looked amazing, I didn't try but spouse said it was super flavorful and crispy & most of all, fresh! I would 100% come back here everytime I visit Somerset! The only regret I have is, not taking pictures to post with my review! read more

This is a really cute local restaurant in a converted old home with Northwest koi Native American decor. Food is delish and NOT Tex-Mex. Owner/Chef Jackie is Culinary Institute trained and super nice. All the food is homemade and generous portions. I have had the chicken fried steak, the rueben sandwich (HUGE), the meatloaf and the bread pudding. This restaurant is still experiencing growing pains and hours of operation change frequently so call ahead. Wait ataff shortage is hurting them so teenagers or gig workers: get a job here because prices would get you good tips God's blessings on Jackie and her family and prayers they make it through the tough years. read more

One thing that should be added, the works, I felt it would be even better with the addition of lettuce, pickles, and tomatoes. I ordered the cucumbers sans chamoy and lucas.

We started with the beet and dill salmon on crostini, which was such a fun and memorable dish. Piling everything on yourself made it interactive, almost playful, and you could make each bite as beautiful as you wanted. The flavors were bright, fresh, and perfectly balanced. We ordered all of the entrées--choucroute, hanger steak, and sweet pea risotto--and every single one was delicious. That said, the risotto completely stole the show for me. Creamy and rich without being heavy, it was packed with mushrooms, sweet peas, and delicate pea shoots. The salty, umami depth from the cheese paired beautifully with little bursts of sweetness from the peas--it was honestly exceptional. Outlaw Kitchen is the kind of place where everything works together: the food, the service, and the space. It feels intentional, personal, and special without ever being pretentious. We were blown away on our first visit and can't wait to come back.
