I'll save up again so I can go. We went to the rodeo, dinner and then dancing. It was a lovely evening and the grounds and surroundings were lovely.
This was our first trip to Tejas Steakhouse. It was a trial run to find it and try it out when considering where to take some friends visiting from Europe in a couple of weeks. Will we take them? Definitely yes! Although it seems out in the country which it is , it is only 10 minutes from the Bulverde Rd./281 intersection. The restaurant oozes Texas country ambiance. We had the KC steak for 3 and didn't regret it. The steak comes in 2 ounce medallions and was cooked perfectly to our request for medium. There is an extensive choice of sides. For an appetizer, we had fried pickles and jalapeños. Maybe the best fried pickles we've ever had highly recommended! I have deducted a star because of dessert. We had both the peach cobbler and bread pudding. As a fan of both, both were subpar. The cobbler was some type of crumbled pieces of something mixed in with a can ? of peach gel. Not very appetizing. The bread pudding had no sauce and was simply crumpled up pieces of dry bread with some cinnamon sprinkled on top. They really need to improve both recipes.
Ok so we weren't going to eat here before the rodeó because it was all sort of last minute and from what I read there was no way on the planet we would be able to get a reservation but the rodeó gods smiled upon us and (likely because we were seriously early) got us out of the heat and Into the ac for what promised to be some good food. (Ya'll have a seriously hot town- this week was like 104). To my delight it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Southern hospitality is a thing. Thank you Texas. We ordered the fried jalapeño and pickles. They were hot and crispy and everything a fried appetizer should be. We ordered the kc steak for two which came with 4 appetizers.. the good news is that they let us order the steak cooked to our preferred temperature for each of us. The fist words I uttered were- damn someone knows how to season a steak. It was tender and flavorful. I'm a steak snob- worked managing a high end steak house for years .. I know a good steak and this was it. Sonny was our server. He was very concerned that we enjoyed our meal- offering suggestions along the way. I always have a lot of questions (it's in my nature- has nothing to do with my yelping). He could answer all if them. I could tell he was a rookie (that's experience on my end) but he was earnest in his approach and attentive and if I was his manager I would have been proud to have him in my employ. Speaking of the manager. She stopped by- not in the I need to put a check mark next to the say hello to every table kindof way but in the I really welcome your feedback kindof way. Bonus points. I didn't need the sides. I was full. So I'm not Commenting on them. Our server found out we were coming to the rodeó and offered us a drink to go. Smart guy. We got to go cups and we're on our way with full belly's and big smiles. Go. Eat. It's not some cheezy cowboy themed steakhouse. It's a steakhouse with damned good steak.
Got the KC steak for one and a prickly pear margarita, and it was delicious. We had a reservation so we were seated quickly. They have all the Texas staples that make you feel like you are in a Western film. The cowboy nachos made for a great appetizer and the restaurant quieted down once the rodeo next door started.
There were 9 people in our party and we were excited to try this place. we began with 3 baskets of fried pickles and jalepenos, they were delicious! The bread was good, just a little too dense/heavy. For the main course, one person ordered the prime rib which came out correctly made, and four of us ordered the KC steak medallions. One person ordered medium rare, two ordered medium, and one ordered medium well. All KC medallions came out the exact same- well done, no pink in the middle and the KC spice rub burnt on the outside. The lovely waitress then placed orders to remake the steak medallions for two people, my husband and I decided we would stick with what we had just to be safe. The new order of medium rare steak medallions came out raw in the middle and had to be sent back to cook a little longer and the new medium well medallions came out right. The waitress seemed embarrassed by the outcome of the steak medallions and even went ahead and cooked more for my husband and me. Our side orders were mashed potatoes-good, asparagus-great, green beans-bland, broccoli-overcooked/mushy. For dessert, I had the bourbon caramel cheesecake, it was good. After the meal we left to check out the little area. Since we were the only people eating outside, we left our to-go boxes of steak and prime rib, and several birthday presents on the table. Five minutes later we returned and the table was cleaned and all the to-go boxes with the left over steak and prime rib were thrown in the trash. The birthday gifts were taken to the hostess table. Needless to say, not a great experience.
