Another fabulous birthday spent at Queenie's Steakhouse! From the very beginning, the experience was outstanding. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful when making reservations, patiently answering all my questions. On the day of our visit, the service was nothing short of phenomenal--our servers brought genuine personality, professionalism, and experience that made the celebration truly special. As always, the food was phenomenal. We shared the Wagyu Tomahawk Steak, and it was cooked to absolute perfection--rich, tender, and unforgettable. The truffle mushroom orzo was decadent and full of flavor, the U12 shrimp were perfectly prepared, and the asparagus was a great, fresh balance to the meal. Every bite reminded me why Queenie's Steakhouse is always worth celebrating at-- Side note: I will forever dream of their sides. read more

I have not eaten here yet but I will in the next month . I'm rating Queenie's today because I got a very fast reply to fit me in on a day when reservations were full . I had to cancel because we had prepaid another experience but I wanted to call them out for great communication . Will definitely plan an evening out here soon read more

My son and I walked in no reservation on Thanksgiving for dinner. It was an "on the fly" moment. The general manager was very helpful and professional. They told me it would be a five minute wait to be sat at a table. Ambiance was nice. Fire. Smells. Nice bar. Within five minutes we had a table. That's when we met TORI. She was everything I look for in delivering a high class, five star experience. Not only was she our server she was also the bartender. She made me probably the best Pear Martini I've ever had. We ordered from the Thanksgiving menu and tried almost everything. The food here is an infusion of flavor. Everything was phenomenal. Going back to Tori. She made the experience what it was, knowledgeable, fun, beautiful and professional. I'll definitely be back and recommend Queenie's to everyone! Don't even hesitate just go! Cheers. read more

5 star service with a smile. Unique steakhouse in the heart of Denton. It was tough to choose, wishing I had my crew with me to try everything on the menu. Tomato Basil Soul, had a ribbon of balsamic giving it something extra-extra special. Salmon was perfectly cooked, and dress with the smoothest cauliflower and poblano purée... ambiance was set for a date night or girls night, and staff was prompt and courteous. read more

We always love the food and experience at Queenies. The filet was amazing and we loved the atmosphere.

Phenomenal food and exceptional service made this an amazing dining experience at Queenie's. We were visiting Denton to see a concert. We decided a late night steakhouse dinner sounded just right. We were warmly and genuinely greeted when we arrived at Queenie's. Our server Helena was so knowledgeable about every aspect of the menu and Quinn, who she was training, was also so personable and sincere. Everything Helena recommended was so delicious, from the fried quail with buttermilk ranch and amazing homemade pickles (had to get some pickles to go), Caesar salad with the most delicious savory dressing and steaks cooked to perfection. Our stuffed filets injected with roasted garlic were the best steaks we have ever had. My hubby and his friend also enjoyed their bison and ribeyes. The Brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes were also yummy. Plus we left not a single crumb of our homemade focaccia with roasted garlic dipping oil. Sadly we left no room for dessert. We would happily come back to Queenie's anytime! read more

Had a wonderful time here with my dad. The ambience was excellent as soon as we walked in. It was warm and cozy, moody lighting. Wish we were there when there was live music. I'm sure that would've been the icing on the cake! Katie, our server, was excellent. She had a lot of great recommendations, like the buffalo cauliflower and elk sliders. Both were appetizing and packed a lot of flavor. The entree, beef tenderloin, was pretty good. The "crust" tasted a bit burnt. I didn't like the Demi-glace on top, but that's a preference. I'd much prefer the beef tenderloin al a Carte. I ordered medium rare, was closer to the rare side. Two of the asparagus didn't have the hard part of the stalk trimmed off, so I had to spit that out. The hash under the steak was yummy. My dad ordered the same and his was extremely rare. We asked Katie to bring it back to cook it more; when she brought it back it looked exactly the same. He also didn't care for the Demi-glace. The mac and cheese was as forgettable. Very bland. I liked the noodle choice as it held the sauce well, and the baked topping added a nice texture difference. Wouldn't order again. The crispy potato side was delicious. I could've ordered that with the sliders and buffalo cauliflower and I would've been very satisfied. I'd like to try Queenie's again with a different entree and skip the mac and cheese. The service was outstanding, from Katie to the manager that came to speak to the table. The drinks were good as well. The food was pretty good. read more

Traveled to Denton two different times from out of town and made Queenies a go to spot both times! Absolutely amazing the food the service can't see enough good things about this restaurant! I have to say Allie that heads the bar up and handles food service at the bar her and her team continue to be the best service we've had. All around great service food in ambience.. read more

Excellent service. Everything was good, some was great, but that was my personal taste.we share around the table. I know we will be back.

What. A. Night! We were there for a celebration and they did not disappoint! From the time we arrived until the time we departed, the entire staff made us feel special and took excellent care of us. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, the service was top notch. Words cannot describe how delicious everything was. Grilled oysters, envious chili, salads to die for, steaks cooked to perfection, cocktails made with superior skill, and the special attention to our celebration. Everything was spectacular. Chefs kiss and highly recommended! Wow! read more

I got the elk sliders to start, they were decent but the buns were average and cheapened the whole taste. My partner got the roasted garlic stuffed beef tenderloin which was cooked perfectly. So soft and tasted amazing! I got the A'La carte N.Y. Strip which was good but I felt for the price it should have came with at least a side. Our server was friendly and took care of us. Unfortunately when we dined here their heater was broken so we were cold the whole time, I'd love to come back when the temperature is fixed. read more

Great service, waiter and manager were knowledgeable and friendly. Killer food. One of the top 10 steaks I have ever had. Sides were top notch and the dessert was to die for. Will be going back. read more

I was excited to find that Tim Love had a little hidden gem off the square in Denton, so I quickly made reservations for my finance's birthday dinner. From the moment we walked in the door, they made us both feel so welcomed and special. They immediately wished him a happy birthday without prompting which confirmed that they had read my notes in our reservation. We started with a cocktail made to order at the bar until time for our reservation. The bartender did an excellent job of recommending the perfect whiskey. Once we were seated, our server Ryan took excellent care of us. She thoughtfully asked about our wine preferences and made an awesome recommendation. Then, she walked us through the menu and clearly explained how the courses would be timed and prepared. And, the manager David came by several times to check on us but also gave us plenty of space to enjoy our meal. We had the grilled oysters to start, and what a way to kick off the meal. The flavor pairing of lime, serrano and manchego cheese were so good. Then, we shared the butter lettuce salad which the kitchen thoughtfully split. They have really found a way to elevate their version of a wedge with the dressing, lardons and pepitas. Then, we both had the beef tenderloin which had been thoughtful prepared, seasoned and cooked to perfection. It was so tender that we didn't even need our steak knives. Finally, we finished our meal with the whiskey carmel, bacon sundae. Just Wow!!! I am always surprised by the food scene in Denton, but our meal rivaled some of the best dining experiences that we've had anywhere in the world. read more

Phenomenal place for an evening out. The food is always impeccable and the presentation perfect. Great service, fabulous ambiance and the craftiest of cocktails. All the best for a memorable experience. read more

The food here is phenomenal. We had their New Year's Eve special. It was a 2 inch thick 32 ounce porterhouse and scallops, with 3 other sides which included a salad and dessert. The steak was unbelievably tender. Thanks Ken and our server Katie. We enjoyed the live music as well. It was at the perfect noise level that we could still have a conversation without yelling at each other. If you're passing through Denison Texas and want to take a lovely food journey stop by Queenies Steakhouse, you'll love it. read more

Last night was our best Queenie's experience. We sometimes try to go back because we want a more upscale dining experience and don't want to drive to Dallas. We were pleasantly surprised. The host was welcoming and wonderful. Our server Kayla, was simply fantastic. She really paid attention to detail and was working hard. We will be sticking to the formula of, foie Gras sliders, Buffalo cauliflower, burger, truffle orzo and dessert. The manager was also lovely. It's not exactly a five star because of the slight lull in getting our food, but honestly, we will go again. It is obvious that the right people are running things and they have hired a fantastic staff. We hope it continues!!! read more

Would make this a go to place for sure. Bison steak was incredible, never had before. Shrimp alittle under cook for my taste but steak was amazing read more

Food was great, service even better, atmosphere is detail oriented and very well done. Service (again) was top notch.

The food tasted fresh and delicious and the service we received was great. I and my family loved the ambiance too! We highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a fine dining experience in downtown Denton! read more

Server was weird as hell. I like the hostess she was cool. Food was bad. I had to send my steak back and it still was ground beef texture. Sides were pretty good. Server made fun of me for wanting to take them home. Bruh. Ambience was something, I felt kind of squished like I was listening to everyone's conversation except for the one at my table. Lights were too bright. I am not going back ever or recommending it ever. read more

Been the queenies twice, and both times really enjoyed the experience. The wait staff pays attention, the management team stays on top of things, the food was amazing, and the wine was good. We had reservations at 8:00 but arrived early, so we sat at the bar and enjoyed a couple of scotches as our table was being prepared. Barkeep and the management team were amazing had great conversations and we laughed a lot. When our table was ready our waitress was amazing, she made sure that everything was covered and we understood the menu and offerings. We did have one snag, we did order one fillet that needed to returned be cooked as we requested. We had to return the steak back three times to get it right. But once it was done correctly, it was an amazing. Yeah it was a little frustrating to have to send the food back several times but once it was done right it was a great cut of beef. As for dessert well we got the donut holes and I highly recommend that dessert. It is hard to explain but All I can say it was an amazing dessert just get it. Even though we had a little snag with returning their food a few times, we still will go back. Still a great team still great management and the food was amazing. Definitely will be going back and we'll make another reservation soon. read more

When in my hometown, Denton, TX, this is one my absolute go to restaurant venues. Tim Love's concept, named after his beloved mother, NEVER disappoints! My selection tonight, the "Cast Iron Atlantic Salmon", was way beyond exceptional. The Cast Iron Atlantic Salmon comes with a Purple Cauliflower Puree, Grilled Asparagus, and is surrounded in an artistic fashion by Poblano Cream. It is one of the best Salmon dishes I have ever indulged in...and I've even enjoyed Salmon at some of the finest restaurants on the planet! Much appreciation to General Mgr., Ken Blevins, and Bartender Allison Myers, for a superlative dining experience! read more

I have been to Queenie's a number of times while I was temporarily living in Denton. I had the chance to know the bar and wait staff - all wonderful people. One night, I bring in a colleague for dinner. She had closed a sale and it was time to celebrate. I made it clear to the waitress I couldn't see the menu as my eyesight has challenges since birth and I haven't been fitted for glasses since surgery. The wine on the menu was sold by the bottle I had inquired about. Turns out the wine was 60 percent of two full priced entrees and an appetizer of a dinner bill for two. Again, I repeatedly made mention I couldn't read the menus. More than one seasoned restaurant/dining professional has made mention that it was careless at best for the waitress to not point out the price point. I have taken it up with Mike, The GM, to not have my calls returned nor Steve Love's office in Fort Worth. There are other dining choices for clients for to drop 125+ plus for dinner if they don't want to respond to my inquiry. Your food was good - not 60 percent of a bill for an at best, $30 bottle of wine I can get Krogers. Hope the waitress enjoyed my standard 30 percent tip - the staff won't realize it again after repeat attempts to talk to management at the location and corporate office. read more

First plate - rabbit-rattlesnake sausage Second- tomato bisque Third- bison ribeye Last- donut holes Drink of choice - peach old fashion Service, food, ambience, cleanliness - all top notch. A must go to when in Denton. I hope I have the chance to go back again. read more

We were first here opening weekend (about 10 years ago), and we loved everything, but don't pass through Denton very often. Made a reservation in the morning, and were able to get one for 5:30, which fit our plans perfectly. Everything is still stellar. The elk fois gras sliders were light and delicious. The Buffalo cauliflower was spicy and salty and we fought over the last piece. The garlic stuffed tenderloin was juicy and flavorful. The chili relleno was full of flavor and quite hearty for a veggie meal The NY strip was cooked perfectly, tender and delicious. The crispy potatoes were outstanding also. This is a steakhouse you can bring your vegetarian to and everyone can have a loverly meal. Oh and the best part, I didn't gain 3 pounds like I usually do when we dine out. read more

I love a good steakhouse. But the food quality is just not there at Queenies. Been 3 times now and every single time my steak has been tough or overcooked. Sides were good and service was good but the beef was mediocre at best. Bigger prices come with bigger expectations. read more

Stopped here with a friend after doing some archery and was really impressed. The bread is amazing and has a nice crust on it, super soft and has multiple rounds of it. The best part was the beef tenderloin though. Well seasoned, perfectly looked and amazingly tender. My buddy got the bison ribeye and had equal thoughts on the quality. Will be back for sure! read more

Queenie's Steakhouse has been around since 2013 and I'm disappointed that I took so long to check it out! This was my first time dining at the steakhouse and it is now one of my favorites. Chef/Owner Tim Love did incredible putting a contemporary take on a classic American steakhouse. If you go, the Whiskey Caramel Sunday is a MUST. Another couple nearby who frequently go here shared that they have tried all the desserts and this one by far is their favorite. I told my server that I could eat a whole plate of the peppered bacon that was in it...I wasn't joking. The service was remarkable. The hostess, Jen, and server, Bet, truly made me feel celebrated and were a great time. If you ever need somewhere to celebrate a special occasion, reserve a table here! The cucumber jalapeño was refreshing and not too spicy. I like sweet wine so the Moscato was perfect. I was hesitant on starting with the Chicken-Fried Quail, but was pleasantly surprised. I don't like the texture of Quail, but the breading was delicious! For the 2nd course, I got the Texas Ted Chilli and it was incredible. It definitely packed a punch and was very hearty, but luckily my server packed it up for me to enjoy later. The main course was super tasty. I really enjoyed the Roasted Garlic Beef Tenderloin. It was tender and packed with flavor. I tasted the salmon and I'd prefer trying the chicken or another steak next. I think the skin was seared with it for flavor, but I personally do not like the skin. My partner really enjoyed it though! read more

This place was recommended to us by a friend at the last minute. We were not told you needed reservations. There were 7 of us and the hostess said they could seat us anyway and even asked if we prefer patio or inside. We waited 15 minutes and after we already ordered drinks they said they couldn't seat us. Meanwhile they sat two people at a table for 8 right next to where we were standing. Unbelievable. Why couldn't they tell us when we walked in that they were too busy? We went to another restaurant on the square and were treated with stellar service. read more

The quality of food was superb! Atmosphere warm and friendly! Staff tip top with service that elevated the entire meal!

The service at this place was impeccable from the start. Our hostess was super friendly and took our temps and had us sign in in case the need for contact tracing. I know this can cause some angst with some diners, but I applaud their safety measures in ensuring their guests are safe, even after they have left the restaurant. I wish more restaurants contacted customers in the case there was a positive case when they were at the restaurant. We started off with some wine. We did glasses as I wanted to try some different ones but our server was so prompt and made sure I didn't have an empty glass that refilled with the same wine. No complaints tho at the service and not having an empty glass! Food wise, we went out of our comfort zone and tried the rabbit and rattlesnake sausage and elk slider with jam. Both were pretty good and worth a try if you want to venture out a little. Entree wise we did the bone in pork chop with a side of cauliflower and burnt carrots. Portions were beyond what we thought! We were stuffed by the end of it (and had to take home some things) that we couldn't try the desserts. However I did get a night call port which was delicious.. I'm so glad we got a chance to visit this place while in Denton. I would definitely recommend coming here. Your stomach and taste buds will thank you! read more

-Worth the short drive to Denton. It was a hidden gem we found on the way out of town a few weeks ago. -We returned to celebrate our 35th anniversary. -They have a very personable staff. It's refreshing to see so many young adults who can actually hold a conversation. -Maria and Marina ensured we had a great evening. The manager (Ken Bivens) knows how to hire and does a great job of creating a great environment. -It is more than a steakhouse. The inventive diverse dishes were beautifully presented and was off the charts delicious. -If your looking for taste, ambiance and a pleasant evening, try Queenie's for your next night out. read more

Honestly surprised at how overrated this restaurant is. Made a Saturday dinner reservation for my birthday with family. Started with 2x oysters that tasted ...off. Ordered a bottle of Opolo that was fresh out, so the waiter recommended Ely. He served a different table wine first and took awhile bringing ours, but did apologize. We were still charged for Opolo ($2 more, whatever) I think he may have been the only waiter on our side of the mirror. Dr. Ordered the Wagyu Tomahawk medium rare, had to clarify that I want a "true medium rare" since the waiter explained Tim Love's definition of cooking a steak tends to be on the rare side. The steak was done PERFECTLY, as was the prawns and orzo on the side. We also ordered the Bone in Pork chop, which was ok and the Colorado Trout. Way over salted, and the salad wasn't even edible it was so salty. Poured our bottle of wine to ourselves, which is fine I guess. Asked for a desert menu, BTW was not offered a birthday dessert even after a $300+ tab, but it's ok, I didn't want one, the dessert menu was unimpressive anyways. Donuts, ice cream or chili chocolate cake? Expected a little more from Tim love. 3.5 stars for service 3 stars for food Don't get the hype. Lonesome Dove is his only decent restaurant. Would not return or recommend. read more

Great service. Very good food! I'll keep it on the short list when I come back to Denton.

Came in, was sat very promptly with no reservation! Tori our host/ waitress was possibly the best server we have ever had! Knew the menu very well and had great recommendations! The fried qual is to DIE for. The manager Ken soon came over and greeted us and even treated us to a free dessert due to it being our first time! Steaks were cooked perfectly and delicious! Even asked for an espresso martini which is not on the menu, but was made DELICIOUSLY both food and service were fast! 10/10 would recommend and will 100% be coming back! read more
