THANK GOD FOR COWS! 12/4/2002

I travel all over the country and am a continuous visitor of Houston, Texas and have 'tried' a various number of steak houses and the Taste of Texas is by far, THE BEST! The restaurant's atmosphere, service and the meat, of course, is wonderful! That place is always my FIRST choice! more

Mouth-watering steak 12/4/2002

I have eaten at Taste of Texas 5 times and I just love it. I have tried most of their apetizers and they are all delicious. As for the main course, filet mignon only. However, it is so good I wish not to try anything else. Pros: Good value, execellent steak, great service Cons: busy environment more

best value not best steak 12/4/2002

Steaks are great at T of T. But the absolute best are at Capital Grille. Maybe the fact that you need a jacket and the prices are higher keeps the majority away. more

What is a hash house? 12/3/2002

Apparently those people that think Taste of Texas is a great steak house. Capital Grille, Sullivan's, Ruth's Chris, those are steak houses. They don't take reservations, that is unbelievable. It is almost impossible to get in the place. I have never seen so many yahoos in my life as I saw trying to get into this hash house. more

One of the best 11/27/2002

If you haven't tried it yet, you certainly should. I have been there many times and have yet to be disappointed. Everything is prepared to perfection but the wait can be long. Thankfully they have a bar that can make some good drinks that will help pass the time. more

Tacky Taste of Texas Arrogance 11/25/2002

""Are you celebrating a special event today?"" That's what every server inquires when seating customers. "" Are you joking?"" should be your response. If you are celebrating a special event you certainly shouldn't choose to do so at Taste of Texas. So-so food with undeservingly escalating prices and bottoming standards of service. Half a step above the old Bonanza/Ponderosa restaurants. A definite 2 on a 10 point scale. Pros: location, entranceway, frozen margaritas Cons: attitude (arrogant), attitude (insolent), food quality more

Mediocre tourist trap 11/18/2002

Taste of Texas is bland and kitschy compared to more sophisticated central-Houston steakhouses like Pappas Bros. The steak was adequate, but certainly nothing to brag about, and we quickly became annoyed with the frequent ""Happy Birthday"" choruses and ""Yee-Haws"" from the wait staff, as well as with the country music ballads blasting over the sound system. The salad bar was gross, the wine list sufficient but unimpressive, and the side-dishes bland. We definitely will not return. Pros: Ample parking Cons: Mediocre food, Loud, kitschy more

The food is the absolute best!! The service is also excellent. We did have to wait a couple of hours to be seated, but it was also Valentines Day. Would absolutely recommend. Pros: great food, nice atmosphere, excellent service Cons: crowded, no reservations more

TERRIBLE SERVICE & waste of your MONEY $ 10/21/2002

This place has terrible service. They try to kick you out if you get there around 10:00 pm on Friday and the wait staff does not a below-average job. The food is not all that either. Don't waste your money here. Strongly suggest other steakhouses like Pappas Steakhouse where the food and service are really worth your dollars. Pros: good parking, salad bar Cons: wait staff, food, expensive more

Waste of $$$ 10/18/2002

Don't bother placing a reservation because they don't take them and bring your wallet. Steaks are good, but not prime. Great wine list, but not the best steak in Houston. Pros: Wine List, Salad Bar more

Great Steaks 10/7/2002

Everything was perfect, the salads, breads, ice tea, service, right up til we were ready to leave. We could not get the waiter to bring a box and check. We sat for 30 minutes and reminded him several times. Pros: steaks, salads, potatoes Cons: service more

Ya'll come back now!!!! 10/7/2002

Be prepared to wait but then it's the end of the rainbow when you taste the steak!!!! The setting is great and the service is tremendous. But most of all I love to go pick the steak and wait in antipication for the mouth watering treat that is to follow. Of course you have to save room for desert 'cause the adventure doesn't stop at dinner. You have to go!!!!! Pros: Appetizers, Main course, Desert Cons: Wait, location more

Great Food - Service Improving 10/7/2002

We have dined at Taste of Texas serveral times and found the food delicious, but have always been frustrated by the service and long lines. Although after our recent visit, I am please to say they are getting the message, and are working to improve their service. We had a wonderful meal, were seated promptly and treated to a first class experience. Everything was prepared perfectly from the Lobster to the Cheesecake (the best in town) and even the Coffee. Bravo! Bravo! Keep up the good work and we will be back again! Pros: Great Steak, Top Notch Cheesecake, Salad/Cheese Bar Cons: No reservations more

Mid-Range Quality at best 10/3/2002

Regardless of reputation, this establishment remains mid-range in quality of its beef. Spend the few extra dollars and move up to higher-end quality found at Ruth's Chris and Pappas Brothers more
