4 great visits. Everything we ordered was great. Servers have been informative and attentive each visit. Our favorites are the Steak eggroll appetizer and the Monte Cristo. Servers have also allowed us to sample beer before ordering. Desserts have been good. We got an overdone butter cake, but were not charged for it in the end. Also stayed 4+ hours on most recent visit because the atmosphere was so good. Some expensive dishes, but also some very reasonable options. Highly recommend getting a reservation. Love this place!

Reservation required apparently. I got the distinct feeling that they were not comfortable with a family coming in. Or it was a race thing. I'll give them the out that it was not a place for small children. Very fancy schmancy. To the point of feeling stuffy but we have a fairly well behaved 3 year old so we tried waiting for one of the approximately dozen or so empty tables in view for a few minutes before cancelling our place in line (1 of 1 patrons/groups waiting). Cannot comment on the food as we never even saw any. All the tables were either blocked or empty so didn't even get a visual of any food. The hostesses were much nicer to the three couples that came in after we did. Guess a reservation is required for general pleasantries as well as a table. Not sure what we did to fluster the little blonde so overtly. Maybe her braid was too tight. She kept rubbing her head and avoiding eye contact. Her Hermione lookalike coworker had to do the talking after her initial "Do you have a reservation?" Well sister, I didn't before but I do now.

The food, as always, was excellent. The service today, however, was disappointing. Once the food was served we didn't see our server again until she brought the check. Then she never came back to collect our card, someone else eventually did. Getting our card back was another ordeal. The waitstaff is typically prompt and courteous. Today was probably just an off day and will not keep us from going back.Kid-friendliness: Plenty of high chairs and boosters.
We had reservations and we were seated pretty quickly. The service was terrible. The whole hour and a half we were there our waiter came to our table 2 times. He was very attentive to his other tables but for some reason not us. He came once to take our order and then for the check. We tried ordering another round of drinks and they never came. The food was mediocre. I’ve eaten here multiple times and have always enjoyed my meals. This time it tasted like the food came from a package and it was barely warm. We asked to speak with a manager and waited 30 minutes. She never came. I called and spoke with another manager and he said they had a lot of complaints from that night and they were working on solutions. Very disappointed.

Seriously our favorite place to eat and hang out. The staff are wonderful and we always have a good time. Their charcuterie board is the best!!!!

Party of 11…Everyone got something different. $85 steak was not worth it. Asked for medium rare and came out well done. We waited 45min to an hour for main course. Sea Bass was not crusted and very fishy tasting. Salmon was dry and over done. Pasta was good, shrimp and grits was good. Elk was good, came with side 2 Brussels cut in half. And 2 baby potatoes cut in half. Ribeye steak look so much like the waygu steak. 2 people eating them said they tasted the same beside wagyu had the apple glaze. Chicken strips for theKids came out last. Would think the easiest to make. We had several appetizers, mushrooms, Tuna, cheese curds, egg rolls and wontons. Every appetizer was really good. For the price and what we received overall the place is not worth it. Everything took way too long to get to us. Somethings were wrong, drink wise and food wise. We were there for over 2 hours. And I get large party. We sat at 7:35 ordered dinner at 8:15. Food didn’t reach the table till 9pm. This same group of people travel to the mountains every year and we will mark this off our list next year. Big Texas steaks, price and service are 10 times better than this place.
My husband and I always eat at Public House when in Amarillo. Their food is always fresh, well prepared, often times original types of recipes. By that I mean, they serve the unusual. It is a fun place and you don't leave hungry.
On Valentine's Day, my wife and I had the pleasure of dining at Public House, where we were delighted by their meatloaf and drunken mushrooms. The meatloaf was simply divine, tender, and bursting with flavor, while the mushrooms, soaked in a rich and savory sauce, were the perfect complement. The cozy atmosphere and the warm, attentive service made our lunch even more special. It was a simple yet unforgettable meal that made our celebration truly memorable. Thank you Public House!

A truly delicious experience and a gem of Amarillo, Public House offers stellar service, great atmosphere, and the food to back up their prices with delicious appetizers, main courses and an exhaustive drink menu that will leave even the most discerning of guests happy.Tonight, we had a delicious mushroom Sautee appetizer. I had the special which was a perfectly seasoned and cooked flat iron steak paired with tasty but otherwise underwhelming French fries as a side. Thankfully the steak was well worth the price of admission.My wife ordered the ribeye which came on a bed of cous-cous with some Brussel sprouts and topped with a fried egg. An odd presentation but a delicious flavor profile that will be remembered for some time.As this was our first foray into the fare that Public House has to offer I was very impressed, and am excited to try other dishes the next time we inevitably return.

Great atmosphere and super happy to see elk as an option but both the elk and filet came out a little tough and stringy. Other than that super on point with great service and atmosphere.
Great food, as always!
