Read moreMy family was in town to visit grandparents. I told my husband that I would reward him with a steak dinner that night. I called Texas Corral, a restaurant that we had never eaten or visited before, and Mr. Shane answered the phone. He kept his cool, he told me that it was his 3rd night and he needed to get help to make sense of the order. I had a very large order for a family of 5. He placed me on hold and went to retrieve help. A moment later Ms. Jana picked up. She clarified what my order was, she added all the additions and told me what my total was.
Thoroughly impressed with both of their customer service. They were immensely helpful after a long hard day of visiting and driving. Shane even told me that he checked the order 3x to make sure everything was inside of the bag. I didn't check, I just trusted. I got back to our hotel stay, opened the bags, and to our surprise our complicated order was all there.
A HUGE shout out to Shane and Jana. It is NOT easy being in the food industry or working customer service. However, you both set the standard on what quality service is supposed to be and look like. Now whenever I'm in Merrillville, IN I won't hesitate to come to Texas Corral because of the two of you. Happy New Year and thank you for a very...
Read moreWe enjoy Texas Corral for numerous reasons: #1. You get delicious hot rolls with honey butter as soon as you're seated! #2. There's a bucket of peanuts and you can throw the shells on the floor. #3. They have a $5.99 lunch menu. #4. On Tuesday a kids meal is $ .99 #5. The burger on the kids meal is huge! Choice of sides, Texas fries, baked potato, veggies... Add a bronco salad for $.99 #6. The daily drink menu is pretty good! Sunday Bloody Mary's, all the garnishments, pickle, celery, olives, celery salt, hot pepper, all on a skewer. You're welcome to ask for whatever you want. Monday $1 drafts Tuesday $1 bottles Wednesday $2 Corona Thursday $3 well drinks Friday $1 off of Texas size drinks Saturday same as Friday So, basically, if you go on a Tuesday, have Dad order a lunch menu for $5.99. Kids meal for $.99 and bronco salad for $.99. my daughter and I share the kids meal anyway. $1 bottles of beer on the wall...(I really hope you get the joke in that) Total:$8 for food and maybe $4 in drinks. $12 for the family to eat and drink sensibly! So, those are just a few of my favorite things about Texas Corral. ( I'm trying so hard not to go into song again) Unfortunately they are only in Indiana,...
