Choose your own cut and enjoy a hearty meal with the family at this visually intriguing and hunger-satisfying steakhouse.

In Short
The popular steakhouse features rough cedar and brick walls, plus a collection of museum-quality artifacts and collectibles from Texas history. Steak fanatics can visit the butcher shop and have a slab of rib eye cut to their liking. For the less adventurous, the menu is filled with specific cuts and weights--a huge porterhouse, a sturdy T-bone and some select filets that can be paired with shrimp. Salad and a side order are included.

Desserts are gargantuan and a single slice of pecan pie with cinnamon ice cream, can satisfy three people.


On the Menu
A hulking slab of rib eye called the Cowboy will intimidate all but the heartiest appetites.


The Extras
The restaurant offers a guide for history buffs who appreciate the collection of art and artifacts and want to learn more.

    What a shock. This restaurant is nothing like it's former self and not worthy of being number one or even grouped with the likes of some of the others that fell short of #1Best.

    The best steak and atmosphere in Houston. Add to that the community sevices provided to the local schools and you have the best of the best.

  • the Taste is the Best of Texas!

    Everything about the Taste is exceptional, from the food to the service, to the staff, to the decor! A unique and personal experience that chain steakhouses can't offer. It's the Southern hospitality at it's best!
    I recommend the center cut fillet with all the trimmings (garlic butter, wrapped in bacon...etc)
