Onion Rings
Bryan S.

We had lunch here the other day, and it was really quite tasty! At the suggestion of our server, we tried their onion ring as an appetizer (photo below), and they were really extraordinary. We both had chicken fried steak. It was so tender that you could cut it with a fork, but still had a great beef flavor. Very good!

Good ambiance good food service was good we liked the wood work and tree tables it has a cool western atmosphere and the brisket potato and lunch special chicken and burger were all good

Ribeye
Brent E.

Live the Relay Station often eat her for a steak on the way home from TRF. Always enjoy the ribeye with a cold shiner boch. I am a knight fighter at TRF and some join me for dinner there as well and we enjoy the casual atmosphere and service. One of us may eat the 85 ounce steak dinner soon.

Small CFS, fried okra, and purple hull peas
Kay C.

Quick stop for a Friday lunch on a day off! About 5 tables were being served. The ice tea tasted fresh and cold. The wait staff was pleasant and knowledgeable. One of our waitresses was being trained. She did a great job and was extra kind. Napkins, ranch, and tea refills without waiting around. Good food! We ordered the small chicken fried steak with 2 sides - purple hull peas and fried okra for the win. Chicken strips with fries for the kiddo! Gravy and ranch as requested for dipping. We will be back and look forward to trying more items! I also want to sit at the bar to try out the unique bar stools!

Cute rustic decor.

My husband got this and it was $22-24 can't recall exactly, for that piece of meat, okra and salad. I got the 8oz sirloin, okra and salad and it was around $22. Sirloin was thick so didn't come out medium well and I shared some with husband since his meat was very much lacking. Note - we weren't given any straws or silverware. Went salad bar and found them for ourselves on way back to table. Husband was asked once for refill and they filled half of his Diet Coke glas with tea. Guy next to us was offered a piece of cake before his meal and took it. He had no silverware either and no one ever offered him any. He finally ate it with his hands and when they brought his hamburger out he still didn't get a napkin or silverware. Additional note - salad bar was not well kept. Considering only two parties (tables) of people were there when we arrived around 5:40, you would think it might be cleaner. Cheese all in the ranch dressing, tongs in the cheese and boiled egg were so caked on it you couldn't get any. We drove out 45 minutes to cone out and try this place and it was a huge disappointment. Also if you want a baked potato with your steak it's $6.99 because it's not an option for a side.

The old house is really cool with dark nooks and crannies filled with tables and booths. I bet this would be a nice date spot. Josiah was my waiter and he was very sweet. He recommended his favorite dishes because I only knew I wanted that Gouda bacon Mac and cheese and a steak. The NY strip was amazingly buttery and the perfect amount of chew. I'm salivating just thinking about that steak butter and the perfect char. The calamari was light and crispy with a sweet pepper sauce drizzled on top. That bacon Gouda Mac..... so creamy and wonderful flavor. Not pictured: the chocolate cake that I took home and enjoyed the next day. OMG so rich!! You can tell when a chef takes pride in the food they put out. Delicious. Worth every penny.

The hostess recommended upstairs for a lively dinner with friends and told us to try the bacon mac and Gouda!! Btw, it did not disappoint! Creamy texture with cheese and delicious bacon pieces on top! We started with apps--goat cheese balls were very rich, but the balsamic glaze was a nice balance. The fried green tomatoes were just alright--they were a little thick for me, but the flavor was good. The bacon chips and dip was a surprising delight!! You should definitely try it!! Our friends who don't care for bacon even loved it! The cosmo was delicious!! My husband enjoyed his old fashioned, and the Sam Houston Sour is authentically made (IYKYK)! The steaks were amazing and cooked to perfection! I enjoyed my filet cooked perfectly and tender to cut! The mashed potatoes looked delicious and the asparagus was nice and tender! Fabulous bar area upstairs to hang out and enjoy friends! Food was amazing! We will be back!

Expensive but worth it w the large portions & beautiful sunset view! 10 stars (We will definitely be back knowing that they get their meat from Rosanthals meat science building on campus) If I'm gonna be picky, I would only say Burrata needs to be plated with maybe some delicious garlic crostini's, figs/fig jam, macadamia nuts or something creative. I would not get this again only because the tomatoes were terrible. And the scallop potatoes on my Seabass were undercooked and just bland - I feel like this plate needs more colorful vegetables and a little more creativity for such an amazing buttery Seabass. But again, I'm just being picky for feedback. Everything truly was amazing!

So, that said, a recent visit to De Baca was a better experience. Yes, like at most steak-centric restaurants, a meal here is not free. But De Baca delivered the goods, from the ahi tuna appetizer to an excellent filet and delicious sides, all executed as one would expect from an establishment at this level. Our server Aspen did a great job ensuring we were taken care of, without hovering. Despite being on the edge of summer, we enjoyed a nice meal outside, but the inside dining area is also nice, without being too clubby. If a steakhouse is your vibe, De Baca is worth a visit.

Never expected myself to drive two hours for some ribeye steak, but it was worth the experience. We…read morerandomly scrolled on YouTube and watched someone rated this THE BEST in Texas so we had to check it out. What makes this place unique is that they use charcoal, have make their own rub, you can order as many ounces up to 32oz I believe, and they only sell ribeye steaks. The place is called the general store because that's what it used to be when first started doing business in the 1980s but later expanded and converted into a steakhouse. We got there at 4pm and there was a little bit of a line already. The restaurant is only open three days a week each day from 5:30 to 9. On Thursday they have fried catfish and Friday and Saturday they sell only steak. The minimum order starts at 10oz and each ounce increment is a little bit extra charge. We ordered the 24 ounce to be shared between the two of us total is about $70 and we still have some leftover. The charcoal flavor was not overpowering, but the seasoning of the steak was perfectly balanced. Usually, I eat my steak with extra pepper or chimichurri, but this one I was able to eat without any extra seasoning. The surface of the steak look heavily seared but the medium interior was really juicy and succulent. I could taste more char on the edge pieces. After the steak we headed to their second shop next door for some malt shake. I got the cookies n creame flavor, it was milky and not overly sweet like any other milkshakes. And the malt flavor lingers on the tongue after each sip. I was debating to get another one but chocolate flavor but I was too full. Service there overall was very welcoming, and dining area is really big, the interior feels like an old western cabin but very clean and spacious. Great for family gatherings too. They also have a BYOB offer for people who love some good sips along with the smokey steak.

Then the garlic mash potatoes and PERFECTLY cooked 10 oz sirloin came out. The steaks were cooked exactly to order. They had a pristine flavor, and the meat just melted in my mouth. The yeast roll looked like a roll but it was pretty heavenly too, especially with the steak drippings. Our server was super sweet and helpful! And the quaint "general store" is for locals and visitors alike!! Awesome steak night --perfect for a date night! Pass on dessert! Stick with best stuff! Pecan cobbler and peach cobbler were overly sweet! But they did come with a scoop Of vanilla ice cream on top!
