The Big Texan Steak Ranch & Brewery

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.

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!

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 👍🏻

Very fun place to visit and enjoy. Atmosphere is wonderful. Was all decorated up for Christmas, very lively with roaming musicians taking requests and playing old cowboy songs. Food was incredible with generous portions. No one in our group attempted the 72 oz steak challenge (can't imagine even trying that). Service was great and considering how large the dining area is plus the amount of people, we could still have a conversation across the table with ease. Gift shop has a lot of things to purchase. Great experience, highly recommend.

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. 😋
