Service was amazing, very friendly and attentive staff Slightly overpriced however the food delivered a pretty good flavor for us. I enjoyed the cauliflower appetizer dish and chicken breast was perfectly cooked.

9/4/24 had dinner around 730pm. This was from start to finish one of the best overall meals/restaurant experiences I've had anywhere in the country in years! Forgive that I don't have names, but from the gentleman who sat me and the service staff their attention to detail and sincerity was fantastic. The food was absolutely ridiculous in the best way! I had the buffalo cauliflower which was perfectly done, slightly crispy and tremendous flavor. Next, the chili that was excellent mix of spice and comfort! Then, the carrots with creme that might as well have been a delicious dessert and the tenderloin with plaid mash and asparagus. The texture was spot on mixed between the veggies and shoestrings. Done perfectly and like candy! Then, the dessert....oh my lord the dessert. The chocolate ancho cake....honestly, this was the best dessert I've had in my life. I would have taken 10 more to go if it wouldn't have been embarrassing. Just insane. You MUST hit this place when in town and drive to it from anywhere. Just AWESOME!

For our 30th anniversary, hubby and I chose Queenie's Steakhouse. We had a wonderful time!! Queenie's is located in the heart of Denton. Parking can be tricky, but Queenie's is definitely worth it. We were greeted by a very friendly hostess and seated quickly. Our server was sweet and appeared magically by our table whenever we needed her. For appetizers, we ordered the elk sliders and rabbit-rattlesnake sausage. Delicious!! Hubby was seriously considering ordering some sliders to take home. Our second courses were butter lettuce and Texas red chili. Both were yummy, although Hubby swears the chili was better than the lettuce. Finally, our main courses were the beef tenderloin and NY strip with mash potatoes and mac and cheese. To be honest, we were positively stuffed by the time our entrees arrived, but we still dug in. Hubby's steak was perfect, and my beef tenderloin was melt-in-your-mouth good! We brought most of the entrees and sides home because we wanted to save room for dessert. For dessert, we chose the Ancho Chile Chocolate Cake. It was the perfect ending to our meal. Thank you Queenie's for making our 30th anniversary so memorable!!

My husband and I went here for our anniversary and Queenie's did not disappoint! The food was delicious. My husband had steak and I had the salmon. We had the chicken fried quail for our first course which was a great start to the meal. If you like Mac and cheese, they have some of the best as a shareable side. The cannolis for dessert were so yummy! Our waitress was very attentive, informative of anything on the menu and friendly. The ambiance was romantic with music playing in the background with a talented live classic guitar player. I highly recommend them for any special occasion, especially an anniversary.

I can't say enough fabulous things about Queenie's. From the moment we walked in, until we left, we were made to feel very special. We were there to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary for friends. It was just the four of us. The manager stopped by the table no less than four times to make sure everything was perfect for us. Our waitress, Rhea, was also amazing. The food was a culinary delight. We enjoyed everything we ordered. The manager even gave us complimentary donuts with amazing sauces for dessert. Don't hesitate to take your special loved ones to this awesome fine-dining restaurant. Highly recommend!

It was just over a week ago we came in for some food as recommended from the locals at the company we were visiting. We tried a great deal of food on the menu and had some adult beverages as well. I cannot remember the last time I had been in a restaurant where they hit on every dish, drink, atmosphere and service. This is quite literally a gem in the State of Texas. We introduced a few new drinks to the bartender who jumped at the chance to try a new drink mixture. We never once had an inkling of "we don't do that here". The service was phenomenal, the food was beyond amazing. Definitely set the bar for all the restaurants I go to from now on. Definitely worth the drive if you're in the area.
