Little Red Barn Steak House

😾 Bad review INCOMING ! I remember seeing great reviews for Little Red Barn Steakhouse here on local Fb groups, specifically for their chicken fried steaks - never been there before today. This ad came up on my fb stories and we decided to go today considering there was a special....figured perfect time to try them out. Now I'm filled with regret. Should've just gone to Aspen Creek Grill or even Texas Roadhouse for what we paid because the food and service wasnt good... First of all, the chicken fried steak did NOT look like the picture on this ad...It didn't even fill a quarter of their small plate. I dont have pictures because I wasnt impressed and was hungry...It was WAY too small that even the server herself said "That is really small for me without me saying anything....I told her yeah, are they usually this size and she said yes so I just accepted it if that's how they are....So besides it being too small, it definitely lacked enough seasoning and it was chewy instead of tender. Not done ! I picked baked potato for my side. They charge extra for cheese and for sour creme...that's fine....but I got a tiny tiny container with cheese and the same size one with sour creme....the thing was TINY like probably 1/4oz or so....WHAT?! So I asked our server for more cheese and she asked 1 or 2? I said 2 since i was given the option....so I see her chat with several other customers and/or coworkers and she NEVER BRINGS THE CHEESE...I finish my tiny steak and most of my potato because I was purposely picking at my potato so slow waiting on my cheese.....partner finally gets her attention and asks what about my cheese and she looks at me and my potato and says: "Would you like a new potato? It's not going to melt in that!" 😅 I really didn't but w/e, I got a NEW potato with 2 tiny things of cheese (she should've made it 3 if she was gonna bring a whole new potato because 3 or 4 cheese things there equal 1 regular bit of cheese at ANY OTHER RESTAURANT'S baked potato.....) and no sour creme ! I was just furious....ate some of it like that because I was hungry and didnt want to wait 15 more minutes for sour creme. Butter is fake by the way, didnt even touch it. It's the hydrogenated soybean oil as first ingredient instead of "cream" like normal butter. That's a minor complaint but adding it because I was mad about the steak and the portion size... Okay - besides the steak and sour creme and cheese portions that were wayyy too small...For desert, I asked for the apple pie a la mode....they charge $1.50 extra for ice cream...that's fine....I only like my apple pie with ice cream not without. But I get it and the ice cream "scoop" looked like a mini cookie scooper kinda scoop....AT LEAST MAKE IT A FULL REGULAR ICE CREAM SCOOP FOR $1.50!!!! 😾😾😾 Also, no refills were brought until server offered baked potato because I guess she felt bad for making me wait forever for my cheese and forgetting. Partner never got his drink refilled and his chopped steak he also said was bland. Rant over....will never go there again with this experience...It was pretty out of our way, too and only went because Ive read good things about it so writing this so others arent disappointed like we were. Do NOT go there !! 🤯😾😾😾

hadn't visited for a long time. last visit left a lot to be desired, thought we'd try again. bad choice. staff was hurried and short even told that they were too busy to attend. waiter was hit and run. food tasted gritty and felt like it had been drug through burnt charcoal. left a bad after taste. won't return again.its a shame used to be the place to go for steaks.

Outstanding steak and the homemade green goddess dressing is one of a kind. The quality of food and sevice has not changed the 40-plus years I have eaten there. Thank you.

Food was not great and expensive for what you get. Someone came to our table offering to take our photo and give us a free print but no other details. They then came back and gave us a free mini photo and presented several, printed and paper-framed, typical-sized photos and wanted $18 a piece for them. I wasn't aware this place is a tourist trap. I really can't stand when people aren't upfront about their intentions. I tipped the waiter well for his service but won't be returning.

We spent New year's day there for lunch. The food is amazing, the servers are professional and super friendly. Any steak is the best steak you'll ever have. Can't wait to travel to San Antonio again. Definitely eating there again 😋

Ordered on ubereats. My steak came with a baked potato on the side. I cut open the potato to be horrified that half of the potato was hollow and black and the other half was green. Absolutely disgusting.

The sirloin were great. The chicken fried steaks were not great. This was the first time in 50 years that the chicken fried steak was not good. Service as always was great.

Vegetarian options: Sirloin was great.

I’m in from Northern California and figured I’d try this Country style Steakhouse. To put it simply, the 20oz Porter House was Very Bland with no Flavor. Texas Roadhouse is Hands down way better and so is mine. Not to mention the Old Fashioned was the worst I've ever Had…New Cook or Real bad night?

Visited during a packed holiday party. I am sure the experience would have been better if visited during normal times. Servers were nice and helpful. I even saw a manager de-escalate a conflict between customers..

Little Red Barn Steak House, y'all getting down like that? A throw down at the hoedown...? LOL

The steaks were not evenly cooked, the potatoes were dry and the toppings such as cheese or sour cream came in tiny containers.
