Reviews for Joseph's Steak House in Elgin, TX
My wife and I came in to town for a late Sunday lunch. I had the burger which had a very respectably sized burger patty and was... was very good. My wife had the loaded baked potato which was also responsibly sized and very good. In talking with the waiter wewere surprised to learn that Joseph's has been there five years (we don't get out much). The decor & music were pleasant, thebooth seating was comfortable, the food was good, and we'll look forward to coming back to try out the steaks on another day. Read more
Edit: Today is the 3rd time I have driven all the way to this place, only to find it closed. At lunchtime on a Saturday. As... stated in my previous review, the food, atmosphere, and drinks are great! Unfortunately it doesn?t matter how good you are, ifyou aren?t there. Such a shame! Don?t waste your time! Never again. Absolutely fantastic! The food and service is great! Likeothers have mentioned?the hours of operation is spotty. I?m giving 5 stars based on my experience but I will piggy back on thereviews that mention they drove all the way here only to find locked doors. I raved aDont bout this place! Only to be let down!Drove all the way from Austin to find locked doors after dining here a week prior at the same time!?!? I gave 5 stars onlybecause I do not wish to hurt your business because the food and experience was deserving of the highest rating. There aren?tmany classy steakhouses around and I REALY want to love this place! Read more
The staff (meaning my waiter, which took me to my table took my order and took my payment) was pleasant Atmosphere is typical... Texas cowboy, but with Italian romance music, which was bizarre .. not bad, just odd. I ordered Bacon wrapped filets,medium-rare/ medium. I told waiter I was concerned with the steak being overcooked .. and it was. The filet pieces were sosmall, there was no way to properly cook the bacon without overcooking the steak. That stated, the bacon was quite delicious andthe star of that tray. Presentation was, well, you decide My entree was the Chicken fried chicken with dinner gravy and a loadedpotatoe. The chicken tasted fresh as did the fried ness. It was not greasy, which is a plus. Chicken was a bit tough though,that was disappointing. Most disappointing was the utter lack of flavor, and you KNOW for me, Flavor is King! The chicken andgravy just lacked any taste honestly. I was able to juice it up with bacon from the appetizer and some salt and pepper, butotherwise quite bland. The loaded potato was quite good though, with the fixings! Overall I would return, because the quality ofthe food was good and atmosphere and staff were nice .. I might bring along some garlic or sea salt to add to your dish ;) Pricing I thought was quite reasonable also Kinda get some ... Read more
There was an insect in one of our drinks. We were very please with the staff and the food, until my wife saw the dead insect in... my drink. She had the waiter call the manager, but the manager told him to tell us that he/she was too busy to come and it wouldtake him/she about 15mins. She told the waiter that that wasn't acceptable and explained the situation to him and he went backto talk to the manager, this time he took the drink with him to show him/her the insect inside and came back to apologize aboutthe insect, no manager with him, since he/she was too busy even for that. An insect in a clients drink and the manager nevershowed! That can get us SICK and the manager didn't think that it was important enough to come?! We wonder if the manager wouldalso be too busy to talk to someone from the health department. What it started as a nice date with my wife turn into adisgusting experience. 7/9/2021. 7:00PM Read more
11/13/2020 I went today for my first time and this will definitely be one of my frequent restaurants that I go to. The inside... was very clean, the staff was very pleasant and attentive. I ordered the fillet mignon, mashed potatoes with a side order ofgrilled shrimp. I order my steak well done. The steak was cooked to order and very moist. The whole meal was just delicious! Read more
Do not let the strip-mall facade fool you. Once you enter the front door you begin a true steak house experience. The decor is... warm and inviting. The service was excellent. Though we came for lunch and had a burger, the Bacon Wrapped Sirloin Medallionsthat we chose as a starter were delicious. Sadly, I have no photos of the meal. It was so delicious and enticing we did notwaste time playing with our phones. Read more
(I?m not an Elgin local and actually live in Austin) Came here for lunch during the week with a friend and I was impressed! I... had the chicken tortilla soup & it was full of flavor w/the right amount of salt. I also had the chicken breast with veggies;both were good. My friend had a steak filet and mashed potatoes and he said it was very good. Food is great and service isgreat! Read more
Best burger I?ve ever had, like home-cooked in an outdoor grill delicious (not sure what his secret is?) Everything else is also... amazing. Love the Texas ranch themed artwork. Read more
