Years ago i remember one that was on Old Spanish Trail. But i can not think of the name. It is a mans name. And there was a small steak house over on Telephone Rd / close to Wayside. in front of the old Josephines trailer park. Any other southeast siders that may remember! I will be thinking all night now.

I believe that was the "Bill Bennett" steak house.....that's where we used to go when we were trying to really impress a date! They had a rather large sign in front facing OST with "Bill Bennet's Steak House " (as I remember) on the sign.

Seems like I remember eating a fine steak at a place called Jack McCluskeys near downtown. Must have been in the 60's. Ring a bell for anybody?

We liked Henry's Steak House in Bellaire. I think it closed in the 80's. They burned a good piece of meat.

The Stables on Main. They also had a location on Westheimer. Also the Strawberry Patch on Westheimer had awesome steaks which is now Pappas Steakhouse. Also the prime rib at Houston's is unbeatable.

Many a birthday spent at The Stables. Surf and Turf. Being a kid and picking out my lobster was a real treat.

Strawberry Patch was a great restaurant. Rumor has it Pappas may be reintroducing the concept.

I used to like Nolan's and Gallager's back in their day.

I know of and have eaten at many of the ones mentioned so far. Kinda surprise nobody's mentioned Ruth's Criss down town. The steaks in there you don't really even need a knife to cut it. I don't know whether or not they are still in business but I hope so. They were memorable!

I remember Randalls on 45, but what was the place on 225

There was a bar/restaurant on the Pasadena Freeway that sometimes the refinery managers would take me in the late 1970s. They went there all the time...like their own personal club. Real good steaks. As I recall it was on the freeway access road with nothing behind it but a refinery...kind of like an oasis in an industrial jungle. It probably had a name but they called it by the owner's first name that I also cannot remember. (Randalls was great....cute coeds for waitresses..nice golf course view and great food....always was crowded at lunch)

I liked the "Lingerie Shows" at Randall's steakhouse!

We never went to Houston much, but would eat at Frank's in Dayton. I would have a Shirley Temple along with my steak or shrimp.

Also went to a steakhouse in Crosby, but don't remember the name of it. It was at 90 and 2100 about where the Raceway is now.

I do remember going to the Old San Francisco Steakhouse where the lady would swing.

Night Hawk South Congress

Seems to me I was at the Night Hawk 3 times a week during 1969-1974 with some of the Politicos. Was always a fine meal. Half the Capitol was there for lunch. Deals cut as fast as the steaks. lol

God bless Harry Akin for his vision to put a first class place in Austin.

Mont was your Mom there then?

Wendy, the place in Crosby was "Hillard's" if memory serves me correctly!

Pettys on the West side was my Dads spot back in the day, I remember going there as a kid. There was a place in Porter called Bills, not the best quality but without a doubt the volume was definitely there.

Back in the 70's or so there was a steak house on hiway 90 juat west of Sheldon Road in front of the Sheldon Woods sub-division called Western Traveler. As I remember, they served a purty good steak. I think it burned down in the late 80's or thereabouts. There was also a steakhouse in Baytown on N Main, but for the life of me, I can't recall what it was called. We used to eat there fairly often. There is a barbeque place named Goings there now.
