This is by far the best Chicken Fried Steak around! Not to mention their mashed potatoe's, salad and biscuit! I've never been able to clean my plate here, which is great since I always have an extra meal! Of course you can always get the lunch portion which is smaller, but then you don't have the extra goodies for later! It's a small down home place, dress comfy and go there to eat up! The wait staff is always the best and they know their stuff! I've had their T-Bone here, and it's good, but really hard to go there and not get what made them famous! Wonderful food! Prices for lunch are around $7.00 and dinner around $12.00 - really hard to beat for real down home cooking! read more

Who the hell does this guy think he is? Yes, he just sold the place, but my wife and I registered her birthday with Texazgrille. Now we get an email saying we MUST use her certificate ON THE DAY OF HER BIRTHDAY as if to say she has nothing better to do on her birthday. Usually, retuarants give at least a week to a month to utilize a gift ctf. No thanks. The food is ok and the parking sucks. Forget it. read more

If you are a person like me who likes a lot of variety this is NOT the place for you.. 3 different items I wanted they ran out of and what they did have was not that great. I ordered the prime rib sandwich which was more more that 4 strips of prime rib placed on top of a French roll which tasted like onion because they put a giant thicker slice of onion under it. The mashed potatoes were okay nothing g special. We also ordered the frito pie. It was nothing more the a tiny bag of Fritos with a small amount t of chili dumped inside. Will never go back read more

Best chicken fried steak in town. The Tuesday special ham steak is fantastic too. Parking is not good but the food is worth it.

From a couple of ladies born and raised in Texas, this place is as close to Texas perfection as ever! Juicy steaks, melt in your mouth chicken fried steaks and amazing onion rings! The ambience is sooooooo Austin-ish! Courteous and attentive staff equals 5 stars and definitely a DO-Again! We'll be back! read more

Legendary chicken fried steak and awesome mashed potatoes and gravy. Whatever distance you may be from this little piece of heaven, get in the car and go. I would recommend training for the moment for at least a couple weeks because your food capacity limits will be tested. Best I've had in a VERY long time. Could not recommend more highly. read more

We made a reservation one month in advance for a Christmas get together for 12 People at 4pm. By 415 there were 6 or 7 of us there and more trickling in. The waitress tried to take away one of our tables because we were not all there at 410. I think they were bothered because we had presents on the table and in some chairs. Ar 5 the manager came over and said you had a reservation for 12 where is the rest of your party? Really? By 515. We were all there ordering food and eating. I myself spent 90 bucks. The service was terrible had to ask for things 3 and 4 times. Very few people were there until right before 7pm it started picking up but there were plenty of empty tables. A few minutes after 7 the manager came to our table where people still had food in front of them and said we had to leave because we had had the table for 3 hours. Mind you there were 10 middle aged women drinking and eating. No one was rude or loud except for the manager of this establishment. I have never been treated like this for no reason before. I will never go here again. read more

Wasn't that great the steak was not seasoned the shrimp cocktail was not good either I will kit recommend this restaurant to anyone

Two words. Bread pudding!! It's hard to find a good breading pudding around these parks and this place delivers! Warm, scrumptious, and topped with an amazing sauce. Not sure if it's whiskey or rum based, but who gives a d*** Lol! It's good!! read more

Very nice place and service was amazing! We had Susan as our server and she was very kind and took great care of us. I'm from Virginia and enjoy getting some good old comfort food every now and then. We decided to try TEXAZ Grill after moving to the area and seeing the great reviews. My husband and I both ordered the chicken fried steak, as "that was what they were known for". The portion size was huge! It barely fit on the plate! When I took my first bite, I wasn't overly impressed though. The flavor of the breading and the steak was very bland. The gravy was decent, but I shouldn't have to rely on the gravy (which only covered half of the steak) for flavor. Mashed potatoes were good but a bit on the dry side. My husbands steak was very fatty and he only ate 5 bites, as he didn't care for it either. We're willing to go back and try something else, only because of the service we received. Susan was so caring and attentive to us. We really enjoyed how well she took care of us. We'll try a regular steak or a brisket sandwich next time. Thank you Susan for being amazing! Hard to find people like her nowadays! read more

Everything I had was on the bland side of mediocre. I might be too picky, but the Midwestern crowd seems to be in love with everything. Maybe it was an 'Off Night' for the place. Waiter was adequate in service and came through like a champ when I asked to have the Chicken Fried Steak removed from my bill. The beef was tender. The batter was fried perfectly. IF they woulda thrown some Salt/Pepper/Garlic/Lee & Perrins/etc./etc. in the hamburger and in batter, well, I tell you what, I would've eaten a whole lot more of that big CFS! But lack of any flavour made me stop at maybe 20%. I'm certain that the MN IA WI IL ND SD etc. natives will love it. I will not be back. read more

Country fried steak is life! Ask for extra gravy. Then bathe in it. Grab some Lonestars - a Texas delicacy - and watch your troubles disappear. Also shoutout to the service team - always super friendly. read more

Best brunch in town. Service is always great. Chocolate chip pancakes (daily special) should win an award. Put it on the menu!!

You just can't beat this down home comfort food! Chicken Fried Steak, Chicken Fried Chicken and that cream gravy like Grandma used to make for after church Sunday dinner! read more

Staff is great! Food is good and large portions! Parking can be frustrating at times.

Everything was as advertised. Manager came over and chatted and said hi. Waitress was awesome and the food was amazing!! Plan on taking a doggy bag though!! Highly recommend! read more

Texaz Grill - Country fried steak - Steakhouses Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Me and my friend stopped in here for a daily special. We got the thin sliced prime rib sandwich with potatoes and split the order .. there was plenty of food for 2 small females and our sweet server was totally cool with us splitting... It was delicious, cooked perfectly and I ordered a side of mashed potato's that were sensational. The server was super nice and friendly making sure my water never ran out. I wish I lived on this side of town so I could eat here on a regular basis. If you are looking for a fantastic meal with super friendly servers, tasty food cooked with love, you need to check this place out. You will love the laid back atmosphere and the food will not disappoint. read more

I like such places. This is a place for locals and families. The food was good and quickly came out. They are famous for their chicken fried steak. The serving size is very generous. read more

If you are searching for that down home cooking, this is the place. Country fried steak, lumpy mash potatoes, milk gravy, biscuit and slaw with both mayo and vinegar - dinner trip 1. Just to be sure I had found my southern heaven roots I made trip 2 for lunch before my post. Fried catfish sandwich (did request a bun instead of hoagie - yes the fish was at least twice the size of the bun) and quarter potatoes. Splurged with the fried okra and pecan pie. Of which was soooooo good. I will be back. Portions are large - supported by others carrying out to go bags too. read more

Best chicken fried steak, I have ever had! My family and I all had steak and it was amazing. Definitely will be back!

Wow! Please read the entire review. I'm concerned about what's going on at TexAz. My wife and I have been eating at this restaurant for many years. We no longer live in Phoenix and always make a point to stop and get our fix of great food when we come to town. I hope the meal they served us was just a fluke, but if not, Houston we have a problem........!!! We notice immediately once our meals arrived that the Chicken Fried Chicken and the Chicken Fried Pork Chop were definitely thinner. The Pork Chop had no salt and the breading was oily and fell off the both meat entrees. The biscuits were not the same fluff and size and the Okra didn't make the cut, not fresh, seeds were too larger due to older in the field. It seemed FROZEN. The reason why the breading falls off are as follows: 1. Brined too long 2. Meat is not dried prior to coating with seasoned flower 3. Oil temp not hot enough when dropped in the fryer My wife is from the south and we know something about frying, that's why this place was so awesome. They never cut corners! Service was excellent! We will give it one more try, but if the new owner continues to tinker with a once outstanding products we fear TexAz will go the way of Dodo Bird sad to say. Why someone would buy a business that works and think changes won't be noticed. Trust the people who got you to the promised land. Your reputation is on the line! read more

Great comfort food. Highly recommend the chicken fried steak and pecan crusted catfish. Don't miss trying their unique bread pudding. It is the best you will ever eat! read more

This place is spot on! Great service, salad and the chicken fried steak is out of this world! We are here from Texas and have certainly had our fair share of excellent chicken fried steak, this place does it right! Huge servings and incredible flavor! Give this one a try! You won't be disappointed! read more

Wow. I have been bragging to my husband about how great this place was for chicken fried steak. I used to go there with coworkers several years ago for lunch. Had such fond memories of the best chicken fried steak I have ever had. What happened? The place was only half full as opposed to having to wait quite awhile for a seat awhile back. We both ordered the CFS and waited anxiously for it to arrive (short wait). What a disappointment. The breading was soggy and somewhat tasteless. The steak overflowed the plate and the gravy was lacking flavor. Disappointed. read more

Very good food! The décor is very busy with a cluttered distracting allure. Kind of a dive bar type ambiance.

I have been fortunate enough to live in a lot of different places throughout the US including Texas. I've traveled to all of it's major cities and to many more of the out of the way places. To walk into Texaz Grill took me right back to being in Texas, which I only left 2 months ago. From the first sip of a Shiner beer, to the Blue Bell ice cream sticker on the fridge, from floor to ceiling, this place bleeds Texas pride. When I walked out, I almost expected to find myself in the humidity and heat of the Lone Star state, Texaz Grill could hold it's own versus any long standing place in Texas. As for the food, couldn't be better. The portions are large and leftovers are plenty, but it's so good that you may just want to try and eat it all in one sitting. The Texas chili is right on the mark with how chili should taste. Set your expectations accordingly when you go to Texaz Grill, this is a down home place where you can relax and enjoy the comfortable atmosphere as well as great food. If you want crystal glasses and overly dressed waiters, go somewhere else. If you're from Texas, well then come get a taste of home, if you're from any where else, come experience a real slice of the Lone Star state. read more

Hey, how come I can only give this place five stars? WTF? This place is the real deal - authentic Texan. And the chicken fried steak (CFS)? Unbelievably good. I'm from Texas, I know CFS. This place is awesome. The prices are good too, especially for lunch, and you will not leave hungry. I go to TEXAZ when I'm homesick. The only thing bad I can say about this place is that the parking sucks. But I'd drive all the way back to Big D for CFS like this. Thankfully, I don't have to drive that far. Thanks, TEXAZ! read more

Oh, the Chicken Fried Steak! It makes my heart go pitter-patter...although that may just be the arrythmia talking. Writing this review has made me hungry. I've gotta get back over there... read more

By far my favorite restaurant in Phoenix! From the wood panel walls decorated in decades of old political swag to the incredibly friendly staff. The food is simple, hearty, and delicious. I've never had a bad dish and their chicken fried steak is worth every word the put to it. The meals begin with a basket of fresh rolls and the best biscuits you can find. If you are going out and want to feel relaxed and have some fun, with the kids or without, I HIGHLY suggest Texaz! read more

I feel like since the previous owner sold the business the food is on the decline. The new owner/manager is trying to work the line with no kitchen experience. Its a shame I have always loved this place and my only previous complaint is that the server staff had tendency to be rude read more

Nope, nope, nope. I came here on the recommendation of other fellow Yelpers and I am so disappointed. Firstly, parking is a mess. Next, I came with my husband and two year old daughter and the hostess told me that they don't have a high chair that can accommodate a two year old so she had to use a booster seat. The problem is that she's at that middle age where she's almost done with high chairs and still too immature for a booster seat. What a mess trying to keep her in her booster seat and contained. She wasn't noisy or badly behaved, per se, she just wanted to stand up in the booth and look around and fidget with all the condiment bottles on the table. Also, can I mention that the booths have a weird half wall that obscures the other diners from the chest up, but is open from the chest level down, so someone in the other booth could easily reach underneath the wall and dig around in your purse if they wanted to, or your two year old can peek underneath the booth wall to play peek-a-boo with the diners on the other side? It's pretty weird. So the waitress came over took our drink orders with a minimum of small talk (or overall friendliness). We perused the menus. My husband chose a beef brisket sandwich. I wanted a t-bone steak, I had been craving one and I was looking forward to it. We ordered our dinners and it's worth mentioning that at NO point did the waitress acknowledge that presence of our daughter. She never asked us what she wanted to eat or if she needed anything to drink either, apparently she was invisible. Seeing as how there weren't any kids meals on the menu, I just assumed we'd feed her from our own plates, but interestingly the waitress just assumed that too because she didn't even ask if she'd be having a side order of something as her meal, She just looked right past her. If I sound pissed it's because I was. I don't need the waitress to pinch her cheeks and make baby talk with her, but to merely acknowledge the fact that there were three human beings sitting at the booth that night would have been covered in 'Basic Manners 101'. So my steak was very flavorful and tender but BADLY undercooked, terribly fatty and a sickly color gray. (It didn't have a nice sear or a good caramel color to it.) I ordered it medium rare, but instead I got bloody, almost blue meat. And there was so much fat that I only got about half meat, the rest was all scrap fat and the bone. My sides were non-descript. I think my mashed potatoes were probably decent, I honestly can't even remember that's how non-descript they were. The roll and bread 'basket' that came with my food (one little roll and one little cold biscuit) were hard and tasted store bought. And my hungry toddler didn't even want them. My husband's beef brisket sandwich was a pathetic, dried out, flavorless waste of good money. We didn't even bother with desserts. I had a margarita; it was very good, but beguilingly strong for how petite the rock glass is that it was served in. After I finished it the waitress came around and asked me if I wanted another and I declined, but my husband (a non-drinker) immediately piped up and said "Yes, she'll have another!" and shot me a playful look, and rather than looking to me so see if I *really* wanted another $7 margarita or not she simply walked away and had the bartender make me another one! WTF? So within a couple of minutes I had yet another very, very strong margarita sitting in front of me. Now I'm no cheapskate but I don't like to waste money so I choked down that second margarita and it was the proverbial 'straw that broke the camel's back'. I may have finished it, but it definitely finished ME. I spent the rest of the night stumbling and mumbling to myself about someone slipping me a mickey. I've never, ever had a margarita that strong and I am a very well seasoned drinker. What of Earth did they put in them?? So to sum it up I spent over $60 (includes the tip) for 2 small Molotov cocktails disguised as margaritas, an undercooked, fatty, t-bone steak, an inedible, dry beef brisket sandwich and a big serving of NOTHING for my child. Never again. The two stars are for the flavor and tenderness of the otherwise failure of a steak and the extreme value for your money on the alcohol. THAT'S IT. read more

Love this place!! Great family environment, amazing food, and service!! This place is a gem!! We usually get the grilled pork chops, and always take good home. 5 stars!! read more

I usually don't like gravy, but I love the gravy here. Everything was delicious. Love the memorabilia everywhere. Fun place to eat with great food. read more

Place has Texas ambiance in spades. You leave the cavernous restaurant and you almost expect to step onto a dusty street in the panhandle. The chicken fried steak is great and when you consider the $8 price tag it becomes downright splendid. read more

I love going here. However, I received the worst service here the other night. He was very rude to us. It is very unfortunate because it is one of my most fav places to eat. Now I will not go back. Thanks to this waiter who served us. read more

This place has great comfort food, nothing fancy but I don't expect nor want it from a place like this. We have been here twice and both times were excellent. The first time around I ordered the chicken fried steak and it was flavorful not to mention massive. This last time I decided to change things up and get the catfish, and I have to say this was easily the best catfish I've gotten from a restaurant, it is perfectly seasoned and melts in your mouth. Catfish isn't my favorite fish and far too many places can't make it properly, the sweetness of the catfish almost overpowers things. Not here, the flavor of the breading and the work in harmony. I will definitely get catfish again here! Oh yeah, their Texas Potatoes (or whatever they are called) are good as well, basically they are potato chunks that are fried, in fact I am willing to bet they double fry them to give the outerlayer a crispy texture. The restaurant itself resembles your typical small town restaurant, and that is fine with me since I grew up with restaurants like it. Their walls are covered with pictures, posters, signs and whatever else they can put up on it, it gives it an unique look. If you want a "nice" restaurant then you better look elsewhere, but if you want a hometown family restaurant and bar setting this is your place. Service is fantastic as well, our server was constantly refilling our drinks and extremely friendly. One nice aspect of this place is that they give you large glasses for your beverage, so you usually only need a refill or two, we had a bit more because we were recovering from the summer heat. Also for the record they carry Pepsi products, which is a bonus for me, but may not be for others. In regards to price, they aren't cheap (the chicken fried steak is around 13 and the catfish for two big filets was around 12), but you will have more then enough food so it works out in the long run. Overall a great small town style restaurant and bar if you are looking for a hearty meal that is made right. read more

Wasn't crazy about this place. We started with fried okra & beer battered shrimp and for our main course we had the chicken fried steak, chicken fried chicken and brisket sandwich. From the kids menu, we ordered smoked prime rib. And for dessert we ordered the peach cobbler. For starters, the biscuits and rolls we got didn't taste fresh, in fact, they tasted like they'd been warmed up in a microwave. Already a terrible start. But it did get better with our apps. The fried okra was very good, the okra was ripe, not at all bitter. The beer battered shrimp was also very good, light batter, fresh shrimp, our meal was looking better. Then dinner came, the chicken fried chicken was delicious, the chicken was juicy and battered very nicely. My chicken fried steak however, was very bland and there was so much more batter than meat. The gravy was very good and sort of made up for the steak. The brisket sandwich was very dry so we ordered a side of BBQ sauce, without it, it wasn't very appetizing, with it, it was pretty darn good, nothing fancy, just a lot of brisket and bread. The smoked prime rib from the kids menu was OK. It had a lot of fatty parts, I may be biased as I'm not a prime rib fan though. We could definitely taste the smoky flavor. We ordered a side salad with both steak dinners and they both tasted like bagged salad. Nothing great about the dressings either. The mashed potatoes that came with the steaks were pretty good, they had skin pieces which I personally love. No gravy, but I prefer mashed potatoes without so I was happy there. My favorite dish of the evening was the peach cobbler. The peaches weren't fresh, they were frozen so I was slightly disappointed but the crust part made up for it. The crust, made from their biscuit batter, was slightly sweet and tasted just right with the peaches and vanilla ice cream, (adding ice cream is $1 extra). Overall, I didn't hate this place but I certainly didn't love it. The portions are massive so go hungry or prepare to take lots of leftovers home. read more

Texaz Grill is cozy, has a simple menu, very good food and excellent service. The fried shrimp platter is a must have, the house salad with green olives is very tasty and the smoked prime rib is out of this world and The prices are very reasonable. This is worth the drive!!! read more
