    As a city girl, I have never been interested in ranches. But because of a project I was working on for work and the fact that king ranch is the second largest ranch in the world, I decided to learn more about it. I took a bus tour on a Sunday at 12:30pm. The tour lasted for about 1.5 hours. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. He taught us a lot we didn't know about the king ranch and Richard King. The ranch is indeed enormous. We got to see different parts of it, horses, cows, where the cowboys live, etc. We didn't see much of the wildlife probably due to the fact that it was too hot outside. We spotted some deer, wild turkey and a few birds and that's all. A little disappointing but oh well. They have tours daily except for mondays. I'd recommend the tour if you are interested in ranches and history. They also have a visitor center, a museum and a saddle shop. The saddle shop was closed when I was there and I didn't go to the museum either. Overall, interesting place!

    The tour people were very kind and waited for us and even kept the Visitor Center and Gift Shop open for us after the bus tour.

    1.) no seating for 5 at this facility. Sat uncomfortably at a 4 seater table…read more 2.) tables around us came and went before we were offered to place our dinner order. 3.) had to constantly bus my own table because Mel V was unavailable. Gave her the empty bread basket and she left it right in front of me on our already crammed table. Cleared the table again of bread plates and abruptly left them at the bar and they looked at me like "what's her problem" yet no one came to our table even then. 4.) 2 out of the 5 silverware sets had dried crusty potato or something like it on the knife's. The fork had lettuce stuck in between the prongs!! And it was wrapped in the black napkin so who would do such a nasty dirty thing? The manager is not managing anything at this place. 5.) Appetizer(fried mushrooms) came out hot and tasty but we never saw Mel V again to ask for dipping sauce. Disappointing. 6.) main dishes came out together but a lot of it was cold. (Very disheartening) It was as if some plates were ready before the others so half of it was cold to the touch, again unimaginably disappointing. 7.) waited 20 mins for wait staff and no one came back, went to ask a short stubby man if he was the manager and he said yes. Told him my concerns but he didn't give a crap, he actually turned his back to walk away as I was still talking. He didn't bring the Togo boxes he said he would get OR even visit the table. He just went and found Mel V. Just so I'm clear, Mel v. is not the problem and to my knowledge, she did her very best. it's the manager and lack of support provided to the wait staff. Side note: There was shit at the base of the toilet, so this place wasn't even a good restroom stop. I'm just very disappointed as my family and I came from Houston to this "good place" when really it was nothing but a disaster from the get go. At one point my dad asked if we should just walk out. We literally watched so many people come and go and no one paid any attention to our table. There are millions of places to eat in-between Houston & here yet we chose this place and left completely dissatisfied and unfulfilled. Pick another establishment because between the cold food and service, this place is not worth it in my opinion.

    A lovely place for a meal!…read more Kingsville Steakhouse has a wide variety of food aside from steak, all of which were very good. The portions were large and the food was flavorful. I especially appreciated the construction of the Caesar salads! They were loaded to the brim with parmesan and dressing (which are obviously the best parts of the salad)! The rolls were perfectly fluffy and warm. This spot even got a pickle-hater to like fried pickles! I made the small mistake of ordering seafood at a steakhouse but regardless was not disappointed. The portion of shrimp was a tad small but the sides made up for it. It definitely feels like the food was made with love. Like many restaurants in the region, the walls were lined with beautiful mounts. The restaurant had a very homey feel. The service was very homey as well. Our server was incredibly sweet. She was quick and offered refills for the table frequently. She kindly provided to-go cups for our drinks too! This is a must-visit when in Kingsville!

As someone who manages properties from Corpus, this has made a huge difference--just a year ago, everything had to be done in person.

Fiona, (my Frenchie) & I got out & walked around the little historic downtown street. It has a nice small town vibe, & it's alive & well in 2024. I did go looking for a BBQ place, but didn't find one. Now that was a bit disappointing. They seem to have a great many Mexican restaurants. I did wonder if their style of food is like ours in San Antonio. Ours is so Tex-Mex, I'm really wanting to try true, or more truly traditional Mexican food. I know, I know just go to the beautiful country of Mexico. It's in the plans! Until.then, I'll have to come back & try out some of the places in Kingsville. The little downtown strip was the highlight of my day trip though. Enjoy the photos..
