I have eaten at several steakhouses before with very mixed impressions, but Taste of Texas Is honestly one of the very rare places I fully enjoyed. The place is indeed pricy, but the quality of the food, atmosphere, and service is 5-star throughout. I even enjoyed eating their spinach saute! The atmosphere has this feeling of being inside a cabin. A definite treat to be there during the winter seasons. I'm posting this during early November, and they have really gone full out with their seasonal decorations. The staff there are very kind and gave us the right amount of attention to both take care of our table and allowing us time to enjoy the food. The one advice I have is: make sure you make your reservations early! The place is very busy and full when we arrived. I imagine that's mostly the case on Friday nights and weekends. So, make your reservations early. Conclusion: a pricy, but well worth every penny restaurant. A fantastic place for dates and anniversaries, but still suitable to families as well. Food is top notch. It is very hard to not like something there. If you want to take someone to somewhere special and able to splurge, come to Taste of Texas.

How is ToT handling social distancing right now?

Emily Leung | Nov 4, 2020
Bruce Latimer | Nov 4, 2020

Tables are separated by using one and keeping the other tables nearest empty. The servers are masked and gloved. Even the salad is made by a server that is covered head-to-toe. Because of that there is never direct human touching the bread and salad bar, barehanded.

Is their beef sourced from cattle thats grass fed, and antibiotic and artificial hormones free?

Pablo Tyrone | May 8, 2022
DJ OG Chill | May 8, 2022

No, to my knowledge, the beef is not sourced in that manner. However, the beef is very select with finer cuts being made from within other fine cuts. However, from my experience the steaks have been no better than a Texas Roadhouse or Outback. For a nice piece of natural, organic beef, I recommend trying Local Table, and yes there is a difference in taste between natural and chemical.

Elliott Broussard | Nov 5, 2019

No, it is cooked how you want it cooked. But even if you order a rare steak (which I don't) this is the kind of place you order it from.

Is the beef served prime or choice?

kay combs | Nov 5, 2019
Musab Badahdah | Nov 5, 2019

I think they serve both! After you order, they will take you back to the kitchen so you could select your own meat/cut! Always take your steak with the garlic butter on top!!

My son has a field trip here soon, and I read on your website parents are welcomed but not toddlers ? Why is that? Thanks.

Diana Young | Nov 5, 2019
Quinn Freer | Nov 5, 2019

Ah, people here are confused. For the field trip students and parents tour the entire restaurant including the kitchen area, with sharp objects abound. This may include a trip inside the massive walk-in fridge. (Used to, not sure about now.) I've been on the tour and worked in similar kitchens, this is a terrible event for a toddler to attend. AWESOME for an elementary school student. The request that toddlers be left at home for this tour is a matter of safety and liability, nothing more. Sure, you might be an A1 awesome parent who uses a proper leash or harness for your toddler in public, but someone else at some point wasn't and messed it up for everyone. For regular dining that isn't the field trip, they have high chairs and such for toddlers when needed, but any reasonable adult would hire a sitter before bringing a toddler to a restaurant like Taste.
