In 1960, R. J. “Bob” Lee opened The Big Texan Steak Ranch in Amarillo Texas on Route 66, the “Mother Road”. It’s distinctive architecture soon became recognized across the Mother Road as a good stopping place for great steaks grilled over an open flame. The Big Texan is famous for the FREE 72oz steak challenge, which includes eating a salad, baked potato, shrimp cocktail and 72 ounces of beef! Stop in and have a one of a kind experience with large, juicy steaks, cowboys and cowgirls, and take a dive into the Old Wild West!

The Big Texan has more to offer than just big steaks! Stay with us either at our RV Park, Cabins, Wagons, Airstream, and AIRBNBs on property.

Dining here was definitely an experience. The food was decent enough though. The restaurant was all done up for Christmas which added to the ambience. Their brewery beers were really good. If you’re coming through town it’s definitely a place to check out.

Enjoyed this restaurant while visiting family in town. It was all decorated for Christmas, which we really enjoyed. I was expecting the food to be sub-par since this was a tourist destination but we really enjoyed our meal!

Fun place, good fresh food and friendly staff in spite of being a little hokey. Loved being serenaded while having dinner and feeling the throwback to another time. It is what I imagined the west to be during the 194’s-50’s!

Don’t waste time making a reservation, they ignore it and put you in line with all the walk-ins. Prepare to wait 15 minutes after seated for a waiter.
