The Big Texan Steak Ranch & Brewery

I have driven past this place lots of times. My wife and I decided to stop.for the night this time. The motel has a western or cowboy theme. Rooms were clean and the beds comfy. Check in was done all on line, pretty easy. You do get a little noise from the Interstate but it didn't bother me. Plenty of parking even if you are in a big rig. If you are hauling horses there is a place to let them out of the trailer. Dog friendly place too. We had time for dinner. I ordered the beef tips in burgundy sauce and was NOT disappointed. Really good. Tons of steak options. We came in pretty close to closing but they served us with a smile. It's a pretty big place with lots of seating. Staff was very pleasant. It's a unique place... kind of campy, kind of odd... but it all works. It was fun! We also had breakfast the next day. Look, if you like meat this is the place to stop. The place has been around for 50 years and I'm hoping it will make another 50. If you have kids it's a great place to stop.

Stopped at Big Texan Steak Ranch for lunch during my cross-continent drive, and it was such a fun and welcoming experience! The atmosphere captures the warmth and friendliness of Texas perfectly, and the food portions are just as big as you’d expect. I tried the 12 oz ribeye steak, a burger, and carrot cake—all were delicious! The steak was cooked perfectly, the burger was hearty, and the carrot cake was the perfect sweet ending. Their complimentary dinner rolls were a standout—served warm with a touch of sweetness, they paired perfectly with butter. Highly recommend this spot for a true Texas experience and amazing food!

We had a great Thanksgiving dinner here last night. We came because they were one of the only places open on the holiday but we are so glad we came. We had to wait maybe 15 minutes to be seated but the line moved quickly and the fun couple from Canada in front of us made the time pass quickly. We were seated upstairs which I liked as all the tables were individual as opposed to some of the farm style seating downstairs. Our waitress Emily greeted us warmly and gave us menus and the rundown. We ordered drinks and an appetizer and enjoyed the festive atmosphere. I ended up with the beef tips (served over mashed potatoes) and my husband got a steak. My beef tips were the big winner although the rolls were splendid, slightly sweet and soft without being mushy. The service was fantastic, Emily checked in with us many times over the course of our meal. I can’t imagine how many times those folks climb the stairs but they are a hardworking group. We couldn’t have been happier with our experience here and will be glad to come back next time we’re in town.

This is a gem of a location from curb appeal to entry to service. This is an experience, not just a dining facility. The food was excellent. we ordered the tomahawk steak, and it was cooked to perfection. Our sever was very attentive and knowledgeable. Even tho our meal would take longer to prepare than normal. She made sure we were ok with appetizers and beverages as well as kept us entertained. The facility is an experience within itself. Around every corner is something else to see and experience. Lots of photographic and scenery opportunities.

I came here for lunch around 11:00 on 12/10. I was pleasantly surprised by how much more there was here than just a restaurant. After walking around and checking out the attractions, I went to the hostess to be immediately seated. I was warmly welcomed, and after looking over the menu, I decided to try the Mountain Oysters. You don’t see those on many menus! And I was very impressed with how delicious they were. They were tender and the breading was crisp and full of flavor. But I couldn’t leave without trying a steak! I got the lunch ribeye with a loaded baked potato. The steak was cooked to the temperature I ordered, and the potato was phenomenal. It was a delicious meal for a reasonable price. And while you eat, a musician walked around playing requests for each table. Overall it was a very memorable experience, with great food, and I had a good time!

The Big Texan Steak Ranch was wonderful! We had a wonderful experience. OH BOY, it was DELICIOUS! The product quality is outstanding. The prices are great for what you get. Our steaks were cooked perfectly. The location is clean and so big, full of color and very beautiful. This facility is a must-see if you're passing by Amarillo. The decor is nice and the gift shop is so big. Service was good, friendly, and very attentive waitress. Loved the sweet tea! Texas has the BEST sweet tea. 😋

Always wanted to try the Big Texan and when I finally got to go it did not disappoint! As I was on a cross country drive from southern California to Atlanta I went twice! First I went for breakfast and had steak and eggs and it was great. Then 4 days later I went again to try the Big Texan ribeye steak and it’s the best steak I’ve ever had! Plus the atmosphere is great and the employees are very friendly! Definitely worth trying out if you’re in Amarillo 👍🏻

We love to visit this place every time we visit Amarillo. Last night was the worst service ever. The server took 15 mins to greet & bring drinks. Never refilled, we had to stop her, took long to bring the steak sauce, we asked the guy bringing out the alcohol, he was moving fast and working hard. I asked for medium well but the steak was well done half charred. We love the atmosphere but terrible server. Lastly, when we paid $193.00 plus tip to be generous she never said thank you for stopping in. Horrible service 😒
