Wonderful place deserving of its reputation, but the icing/cherry/sprinkles on the cake was Alexis – who is from Texas - and worth multiple times whatever they are paying her. We had the ribeye for breakfast and everything was spot on.
Fun place, always wanted to try it, finally did. Food was excellent, very large portions though. Ribeye was perfect. The vibe is fun but loud. Family style seating unless you ask before hand for a booth. Need to go once in your life if you have the opportunity ❤️
This place is a unique experience not to be missed. Open table made our reservation for the next day so we had to wait a while for our seating. This place was very busy for a Wednesday night. The service was great but the food was mediocre. We're from California so expect good steaks. My steak was barely ok. Lots of food but the quality wasn't there. I had the Caesar salad and it was very good. My husband had broccoli and it had to be sent for replacement as it was old and brown....read full review

The Big Texan Steak Ranch & Brewery is a spacious restaurant that delivers a fun and lively Texas experience. The atmosphere is quirky and energetic, making it a must-see stop for travelers passing through Amarillo. With a Texas hunting lodge theme, the restaurant features stuffed animal heads on the walls and employees dressed in cowboy-like attire. Guests can enjoy the large, open flame grill visible from almost all tables, enhancing the authentic feel. The interior creates an old-time ambiance that captivates even young children.
The waitstaff are extremely friendly, attentive, and prompt, making guests feel welcome. The food is known for its quality, especially the steaks, which are fresh, flavorful, and beautifully cooked. Guests have praised the Prime Rib and New York strip for their outstanding taste. The sides are excellent, with generous portions. The restaurant offers a great atmosphere and is a fun place to visit with family or alone. The on-premises brewed beer enhances the overall experience.
While the food has received positive reviews, some guests noted that ribeye steaks may have more fat than expected, but they were still cooked correctly and tasted good. The restaurant is famous for its 72 oz steak eating challenge, where diners can eat the steak and two sides within an hour to get it for free. Guests are encouraged to make reservations to avoid disappointment, especially during busy times. Live entertainment, such as guitar-playing singers, adds to the lively environment, although it can get loud in the evenings. During peak summer seasons, wait times can reach up to 2-3 hours, but there is a gift shop and activities to enjoy while waiting. Overall, it provides a memorable dining experience, with delicious food and a vibrant atmosphere making it worth a visit for anyone driving through Texas.
