Took my wife back in 2017 for her birthday, I’m taking her this Saturday to celebrate our 19 year anniversary. My wife loves this place! It’s a TEXAS staple!!we had the quail and the tomahawk steak also!!
I've been going there since it was located back in the shopping center before they built the new building. This is the absolute best steakhouse I have ever eaten at. If you live in the area, there are Texas history tours given at different times and also a school program teaching kids about Texas. Most of the items that you see around the restaurant are authentic Texas treasures.
You did great with your review. I discovered this place last summer when I was making my monthly trip for treatments at MDAnderson. I also got the honor of meeting Nina and Ed Hendee the owners. Let me just say that their philosophy makes its way into all their employees…a very fine group of people. Oh yeah, the steaks are awesome!
I live near Houston and this is my favorite restaurant. It's a much better value than Vegas steakhouses. Their salad bar is incredible and it comes with any steak plus a side..no a la carte here.
Living just 5 miles down the freeway we eat here several times a year. Myself & the housekeeper have birthdays 2 days apart so we go once then & once at the wife types birthday. Also if someone wants to live large. Ed Hendy the owner is a patriot & the restaurant is first class.
I’ve definitely got to tell you Steve Texas, does have good steaks 🥩 than elsewhere. And don’t forget to have the country fried steak or chicken fried steak you don’t want to miss out on that sure !!!
I could see any good working class blue collar person worth their salt saving up all year for a meal just like the one you tucked into. (I'd have to starve for 3 days just to fashion the capacity for it - but hey, delayed gratification brings its own just rewards!) Everything about this restaurant seemed to me to present and represent a true Americana we don't want to see disappear. (Loved the old rifles on the wall.) I'm a historian, actually. So one half of my time before the meal would have to be cruising the gallery and taking in the sights. The second half, (after meal) would have to be yakking up a storm with the establishment there, finding out about the history of the restaurant itself, along with its connection to Texas (and American) history, itself. A meal like this should be and feel like a celebration of the human spirit, let alone the true culinary delight that it is. A feast for the soul. Thanks for this. I'm inspired, encouraged and replenished (and I haven't had a bite yet.)
Taste of Texas and Perry’s are exceptionally good. If I had to eat my last meal somewhere, it would be at Steak 48. Service at all 3 is great. I need to try Pappa’s Steakhouse. Can’t afford this too often and buy half cow of aged beef from law ranch then put Goode Company mesquite seasoning and Seven Steak red spice on them and grill with lump charcoal. 75% cheaper and 90% as good.
I haven’t been here yet despite living 20 mins away. I’ve been to a lot of steak houses and my favorite steaks are still made on my own grill, so I haven’t been able to justify paying those prices.
I haven't been to Taste of Texas in about 10 years. I need to go back and get a nice steak. There are so many fancy, expensive steakhouses in Houston. I hear Steak 48 is #1, but I looked at the menu and just seems typical of the other top steakhouses, imo
Steak 48 was pretty bland when I had it back in 2018 n mostly a hype place. Mastro's and them are related n Mastro's was even more tasteless. Pappas Bros Steakhouse and Tony's sell really good steaks for private owned restaurants along with Taste of TX here. I have heard Gatsby's and Georgia James are great private ones too n plan to try them this year. I mostly order the NY Strip n sometimes the filet.
I have eaten 100s of steaks in Texas restaurants all over the best steaks I have eaten in the past few years was at del Frisco's and bobs steakhouse in Dallas . All my opinion.
@@michaelcannon1741 try bob's steaks on lemon St in Dallas . It's a good old boy spot even the former president and a former prime minister have eaten there .
@@georgewbushcenterforintell147 One day when I go there I will. I heard Albiernat and Chamberlains are really good steakhouses out there too n nationally ranked.
When we dine at my sister in laws for holidays, all her sharp, good knifes were stolen from Taste of Texas. I want to make amends for her & go buy a monogramed set for myself.
Area foodie groups all say it is good and the salad bar is phenomenal, but the steaks don’t have the greatest flavor compared to another half dozen area steakhouses! I personally don’t know....
Hi Rockstar I just subscribes to your channel but why I don’t see a lots of Guatemala you and Mark W . That’s how I got to Know you and subscribe my self but NO GUATEMALA WHY sorry im from there you guys Do great videos I like them but no Guatemala que pasa amigos .!! God bless you ❤️
Taste of Texas is well know throughout the Houston restaurant community for their age discrimination practices. You won't find a server over the age of 29 working there. Once you hit 30 you better start dropping off applications elsewhere because your days are numbered.
No hate my man, but everytime I watch one of these, I kinda don't want to try the spot cause the way you eat the food makes it seem so dang dry. You smack your lips like 3-4 times per bite, and it looks like you need a large glass of water just to get the bite down
@@kristenmaddux7046 He does do a good job creating food videos, and I know it's easy to critique something more than it is to create something, but it's so hard to get past the constant smacking of the lips and the way he eats. I keep wantimg someone to give him a glass of water or something. But maybe that's just me
What is your favorite Texas steakhouse?
Thanks for watching! Please also follow my INSTAGRAM for rocking food pictures:

Love it there. My dad always gets excited to pick out his steak. I don't really care, but he does, so I always go pick mine out with him.

My all time favorite? Leona General Store in Leona, TX. Two hour drive from Houston but well worth the trip. 🥩 on Fri/Sat only
Taste of Texas is the Walmart of steaks. Try B&B Butchers! They are one of a few restaurants that serve the A5 Wagyu which is the best!!!
Pappas Bros Steakhouse and Tony's are the best private owned places for steak in Houston I think. I heard G. James and Gatsby's are great too.
Taste of Texas lives up to its hype, although it is pretty pricey but worth the money!
Awesome stuff
I'm worth it. At age 70 I'd rather have a first rate meal than an extra 100$ in the bank.
@@jackhalloween7373 I can respect that!
Taste of Texas is Houston greatness. The absolute ultimate in fine dining.

Enjoy!
I love this place, it does live up to the hype
Good to know.
Everything looks good! Just wish you talked about the history of the restaurant since you rated it as the best.
Thanks for the video! We've been in Houston for 7 years and have never tried it but surely will now.
It’s a great place. Have you tried it yet?

Thanks!

Was that steak Oscar sauce Hollandaise, as you stated, or Bernais? Everything was so good looking!
Mentioning Taste of Texas and The Sizzler in the same sentence is a crime in Texas. It's like talking about Saks 5th Ave and Sears at the same time.
Food looks so good. Do you finish all that food?
:)
Pappa Bros on Westheimer……is the best I’ve ever had.

Do you take left overs home?

Thx 4 the vid .
I’m so hungry after watching this
Wow another great review👍 I'm going to come by for my birthday
You’re in the way!!
Looks like a nice restaurant, would like to try it.

I like Perry's and Pappas Brothers Steakhouse better than Steak 48. It's overrated to me.

Any other go to spots in Houston someone can point me to? I’m visiting in the fall
I have other episodes on Houston on my channel.
Try Pappa Bros. steakhouse, it is awesome.
@@1983mojo1 What about Truth and Pinkerton’s BBQ?
@@juliuscaesart I have not tried either of those places but I sure would like to but more for bbq than steak.
I like AKC truffle butter on top of my steak. It is delicious, imo
Cool. Please continue to follow my channel to see other great food videos!

I say Morton's, Ruth's Chris, Pappas Bros, Tony's and either Fleming's or Taste of Texas after them. I need to try Gatsby's next.

a monogramed set for myself.
You get full of salad and fresh baked bread
Papa bros steakhouse >
Pappas Bros steakhouse in Houston is best!
One tomahawk steak and few sides is good enough for a family of 3-4.
GO TO PERRYS ON A FRIDAY ORDER THE PORK SPEACIAL TOTALLY WORTH IT

You obviously don’t know why they hire young. Do some research.
Taste of Texas? No way Houston is that down bad. Surely Pappas Bros Steakhouse is better.
