Steak Corral Restaurants

I have gone to this restaurant often in the past. Cumulatively, I give them 4 stars. It is a moderately priced, old fashioned type of steak restaurant. Their menu is not extensive but they do have some alternate choices. They have steak, hamburger, chicken, chicken sandwich, and fish (the day I visited they were advertising salmon as the manager's special). The main entrees come with 2 sides. There is a nice variety of those from which to choose. I usually get the 5 ounce sirloin cooked medium. Along with that I get the salad bar and a baked potato. The salad bar is self serve and is a favorite of mine. It is not incredibly extensive but it has many items I enjoy. They have great ranch dressing. The salad alone is enough to fill me up. The baked potato comes "naked". The restaurant has a condiment bar that has mushrooms, green peppers, onions, gravy, barbecue sauce, cheese, sour cream, green onions, etc. and you dress your food yourself. The meal also comes with a slice of "Texas toast". I like this restaurant. I will continue to go there. However, on this visit I splurged for the more expensive and larger rib eye. I was a bit disappointed. I ordered it medium but I think it was medium rare. Not only that but it was charred on the outside. I like some char but it was a little too much for my taste. I do not like to waste food so I did not complain thinking they would take it away and make a new one, throwing the old one away. That was a decision that I made. Others may have decided to do differently. I will continue to go to Steak Corral. That was one unfortunate incident in a long line of satisfied visits. It was not a total loss. I brought my leftovers home and made a delicious soup out of them. If you are looking for moderately priced, old fashioned type of steak restaurant, I would suggest Steak Corral.
