I don't have the time to go rate the other steak houses lower, but if you're reading this and if I've given any others 5 stars...I was lying. Gas House is the only place I've been to that made a steak correctly. The closest any other has been, that I've been to, is Le Cellier. They got the crisp on the outside, the tenderness and the doneness, but left a TON of chewy, inedible white fat. Gas House rendered the fat so as to be so soft and good, at least on the ribeye I got. The ribeye came resting on a bed of andouille hash, topped with fried onions and with two sides.I got German potatoes and soup of the day (chili). The chili was... chili. Can you really perfect that? Some say you should never try. The potatoes, though, actually upset me a bit. I've been trying to cook German food for a while now, and these potatoes were better than every attempt I ever made at using red cabbage in any dish.My girl got jambalaya risotto, which came with a few big shrimp on top. She got sautéed mushrooms and onion rings as a side. I'm not a fan of shrimp or mushroom but can concur that whatever good things you're thinking the risotto tastes like, you're right.For dessert I tried Crème brûlée for the first time...I didn't like it, though I believe, from what I know of the dish, it was cooked properly. So I add this dish to the same category as mushrooms and shrimp. She got carrot cake, which was dense and good and, like the chili, it was carrot cake. Probably best not to get too creative.All that, a Mountain Dew, Texas Mule and Kentucky Mule (the Markers Mark was a little heavy here, but you do mostly pay for the booze after all) the bill was a hair over $100. It was worth it enough for me that I will go again and try their other dishes, even some ingredients I'd be loathe to try at other places.My only real criticism is how out of place the branches with the lights on them are. I'd say either plant those in a smaller room, so the amount of available ceiling doesn't dwarf the decoration, or just go all out. But it really doesn't fit in, regardless, as cool of an idea as it is on its own.

Had the cod Po' Boy and fries, food was very good. Fish was perfect, not greasy or oily. Fries were good, could have been a touch crisper but that is personal preference. Nice atmosphere, bar was a little small but a nice area. We had a party of 7 and service was perfect. Will eat here again and would recommend to others.

Really good food, got seated quickly and was checked in on a lot. would grab refills everything she walked by. nice seating and great atmosphere, food was hot and cooked perfectly and had really good seasoning. went out with my buddies to try something new I got the urban cowboy and it was the best sandwich i’ve had i got that with a side of potato wedges and got our table a blackened shrimp starter. not a huge fan of seafood normally but the shrimp was seared and crispy amazing seasoning and sauce along side with it. my friend got the salmon and it was the freshest salmon i think i’ve ever had, everything was juicy and tender it fell right apart. the bread that they bring out is seasoned and fresh with whipped butter, not a fan of this style of bread that is hard in the middle but this was soft and fluffy. best food i’ve had in a while

This has been my favorite restaurant for many years, service has always been phenomenal, food has always been amazing as well as the atmosphere. BUT, the last two times we have been here, our steaks have not been cooked as ordered. Last night was no different. We ordered simply seared filets cooked medium well and they came out medium rare instead. ?When it came back there was no juice left in the steak and it was a dry 42.00 steak. no juice and no flavor and so we left disappointed once again.
