Poor service, terrible food , my wife could not even chew her chicken fried chicken. I had to hacksaw through my steak. Potatoes were the size of ? Golf ball. I still paid and management did not care. No one cares I know, however I will never step into this dump again. Hope a real review helps someone. If you want to leave disappointed and hungry this is the placeWent straight to Henry's and had a wonderful mealThis is not a plug for themJust a fact. Nice response. Not pure or real. We will never come back after 20 years of being a customer. I stand with the truth!! Good luck! And good bye.

I went here with my girlfriend. She got a margarita and I had an old fashioned. Both were very good and gave me hope for the rest of the meal. We ordered the calamari and it was disappointing. The sauce it came with does not pair well with calamari, and the calamari itself was extremely mild in flavor and too chewy. The Olive Garden has better calamari and it's not close.We both ordered the pepper steak (the menu says it's their specialty). My girlfriend ordered it well done and I ordered it medium. Hers was cooked well and tasted great. It was tender and, while cooked way more than I would order, delicious. My steak was cooked very rare and was chewy, to the point where I couldn't finish it. It was almost like steak-flavored bubble gum. The seasoning was good but it seems like it was either a bad cut of meat that was cooked poorly, or it was just cooked very poorly.My girlfriend ordered broccoli on the side and it was tasty and tender. I got mashed potatoes with brown gravy on the side, and the gravy tasted like it came from a can. The mashed potatoes were fine but fairly flavorless. The only real flavor came from the gravy and the gravy was worse than I would expect from a local restaurant.We ordered dessert to go and the dessert was delicious.Our server was friendly and attentive. However, it seemed like most of the staff weren't happy to be there.The atmosphere was weird. It's like they couldn't decide on a vibe for the restaurant and just threw everything together. It's part steakhouse, part fine-dining, and part cafeteria (the plates are weird plastic and metal trays).All-in-all, The Black Steer feels like a restaurant from Kitchen Nightmares, where they boast about how great the restaurant is on the outside, but the inside is a very different story. It feels like the type of restaurant where the owner is clinging to the past and refuses to listen to reviews or their staff's feedback.I think there's a lot of promise in this restaurant but it needs a serious overhaul. It needs all local ingredients and an experienced chef and a face-lift. I was really hoping that this restaurant lived up to the "#1 steak" message posted all around the outside, but, unfortunately, it falls quite short.

I've eaten there for years, and this is the worst experience I've had there, the steak was Was extremely tough and it was cold. And now they Charge $5 for a salad that used to come with your meal.

Our family has been dining there for 25 years plus, have always enjoyed the food there, always try to cater to the smaller establishments, however, after last visit, we were told to add a salad to our meals is now an extra five dollars, truly what does it cost to provide a salad with the meal we’ve always received in the past, from now on we’ll probably just visit the large chain there’s steaks, come with a potato and salad for less money!

Great meal, amazing that there are still resturants that you can sit and talk in. So many are so noisy or have such poor acoustics you can't hear the person setting next to you. Don't change.

Food and drinks were terrible!!!! And I ordered Blantons. I do not recommend this restaurant. For delicious steaks and drinks, take the short trip to Fort Collins to The Still Whiskey Steaks.

The reviews make this place sound better than it is. It smells like it needs to be dusted as soon as you walk in. The staff is nice, but it seems obvious that they don't like working there. The steak was VERY dry for medium rare. Drinks are terrible. The appetizers looked like they came our of a freezer. I'd give a lower star if I didn't have pitty fir the service.

Went to the Steer last night for dinner, which we do about once a month. Side salads are now $5 to $8, despite menu items that state the salad is included. When we asked the waitress why it changed, she said it was so the restaurant didn't have to raise menu prices. You just lost us as regular customers. The servings have gotten smaller over time and you've dropped favorites from the app menu too. We've hung in there for quite a while, but last night was the last straw. I initially ordered a salad, but cancelled and went home to make my own.

It was perfect for our group gathering, western decor and steak that was good.Someone’s order wasn’t quite to their liking in our party and the wait staff did an amazing job with different choices to make sure it became a win win. They treated us well and the redone steak was perfect for our friend.
Was expecting a higher quality service for a steakhouse.

I wanted to give five stars but the place was outdated. Overall the food was perfectly cooked but the salad had rice Chex in it and I wasn’t a fan. The server was extremely caring and patient with me. She answered all my questions and made recommendations.

I want to first start with saying how kind our server was. She was so polite and answered all my questions. I wanted to give five stars but the only reason I didn’t is because the restaurant seemed really outdated however the food was actually amazing! They cooked everything just right! I wasn’t a fan of the Chex on my salad but it was ok.. my steak was cooked to perfection and the lobster tail was absolutely perfectly cooked! Not to many restaurants I’ve been to cook it that perfect..Parking: There was the Main Street parking and parking in the backKid-friendliness: My son enjoyed his dinner and loved the verity of foods.
Food was ok but staff was very rude. Bar tender complaining saying she isnt making anymore drinks even when there were still 5 or 6 tables and the lady busting tables making nasty faces and caught an attitude when we thought she was our waitress. Food was ok. Steak has a good grill flavor but lacked any seasoning. French onion soup was really sweet and the salad had chex ceral instead of croutons. We will not be back.
