A Stellar Steakhouse Experience at Big Steer: Unforgettable Flavors and Outstanding Service!My recent visit to Big Steer Steak House was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. Our waiter, Cole, deserves special recognition for his impeccable service throughout the evening. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was unforgettable.Now, onto the star of the show – the steak! I can confidently say that the steak I had at Big Steer was one of the best I've ever tasted. Cooked to perfection with a juicy, tender texture and packed with incredible flavor, each bite was a true delight. The seasoning was spot on, enhancing the natural flavors of the meat without overpowering it. Additionally, the steak was cooked precisely to the temperature I requested, showcasing the chef's mastery in the kitchen.The atmosphere of the restaurant was another highlight of our visit. With its cool ambiance and inviting décor, Big Steer provided the perfect setting for a memorable dining experience.In conclusion, if you're looking for top-notch steaks paired with excellent service in a welcoming atmosphere, look no further than Big Steer Steak House.

I will say it was busy but we had a reservation and a table of 8 were seated right away. It was loud from people sitting so close but we adjusted. I did get hit in the face with a plate by the waitress, she felt horrible but there wasnt a lot of room for her to move.Now for the food. I ordered the prime rib with salad and French onion soup. The soup was lukewarm, I told the waitress to just put it in the microwave. She came back with my brother and I's soup with new cheese on the top, the old cheese was on the bottom, no way could I eat a soup of cheese. My prime rib was cold to the touch, the waitress said prime rib gets cold because it is a far walk from the kitchen. That was definitely heated in the microwave so I wasn't very happy for the price I paid I should have received good to great food. I took a bite of the cold prime rib which was soooo good before it went back to get warmed up. I'm sad I had this experience because I have heard great things.

Dinner with friends while in town visiting. Everything was amazing! I had a small filet with seared scallops and I couldn't stop exclaiming how amazing everything was. Service was a perfect 10! We were full when leaving, but knew we needed to taking some dessert to go! I'll be back next time I'm near! Top 5 restaurants Lifetime, and I eat at good restaurants every weekend of the year

I took my family there Sunday for dinner. Reservations was 400 pm. I spent $435.00. Had drinks first time ever there. The waitress when we was done gave me the bill . I was giving her a $60 dollar tip and she came up all loud and embarrassing and said you need to at least need to give me $80. Which was fine but to be all loud about it and had several people looking over. Very embarrassing!!! Which was to bad because the food was amazing!!
