Pioneer of Texas

Come on down to this classic Texas eatery and get full on their hearty meals. Mostly homestyle cooking, they do still offer a wider variety, including some Mexican food offerings. Packed with ranch, Texas, and Western style memorabilia, the atmosphere is homey and nostalgic and patrons will enjoy seeing all of this. Our food was hot, fresh, and delicious. I highly recommend this establishment. Our server, Catherine, was friendly and polite and is a hard-working Texas mom. We loved her and her hospitality.

I see this place all the time when I go to tractor supply, so I finally decided to stop in. I was honestly really looking forward to eating here. First time coming here! The atmosphere is nice, it's got a very 'rustic' feel, and wears its age with a badge of honor. Jukebox, massive bear, wood everywhere-cool vibe. But that's literally all it had going for it. Out of all the 'dine in restaurants' I've eaten at in Wichita Falls. This place comes in first prize for being the worst. I saw reviews saying they got chips? I didn't get chips at all. I got a waitress that was less than welcoming. I ordered the Chicken Fried Steak with Okra and mashed potatoes, and it comes with a wheat roll. The chicken fried steak lacked anything one would describe as flavor. It was this strange consistency also. Like the meat itself would physically fall apart from each other. It was awful. The Fried Okra came out greasy, and the physical Okra inside was extremely tough and leathery. The mashed potatoes were the icing on the cake for a bad experience. They literally taste like the powdered ones you get and mix with water from Walmart. No seasoning, nothing. Just nasty puffy white ick. They don't give you real butter. They give you 48% oil spread to put on your roll, in case the rest of your dinner wasn't oily enough. While excited to see the Juke box in the booths and the large one in the lobby, there was zero music, and it felt like a morgue inside. I couldn't even finish my meal. I maybe ate a third of it before I got grossed out disgusted. Of all the places to spend 20$ for lunch here in North Texas, this place is not it.

Excellent down home cooking and a Wichita Falls standard. The Chicken Fried Steak, Red Tacos, Rancher's Breakfast, Biscuits & Gravy and the Enchilada Plate are a must try.

I had the lunch special Chicken fried steak that came with 3 sides. It was absolutely delicious! My lunch buddy got the Catfish with 2 sides and hers was just as hot & fresh. Prices were very reasonable for such great food. Waitress was wonderful!

I loved the seafood combo with french fries & onion rings! So good! My companion said she wished the chicken fried steak had been a bit crisper- was just a little soggy. Although the gravy was really delicious, she missed the crunch! Our server was awesome and attentive! We'll be back again soon

Food, service, and atmosphere was fabulous! We had the breakfast enchiladas and smoked sausage breakfast! Both was large portions more than either of us could eat. We got a bottle of the sauce to take home with us, it had a great flavor!

Great dinner tonight! Chicken fried chicken!! Tonight, we had the worst service! It's hit or miss at this place, the food is normally good, but it's amazing how different these waitressess are?? No chips were brought out, no drink refills, just the normal stuff I take for granted & when I'd ask, she'd say oh you want that??

My family and I recently visited this restaurant. I am Hispanic, and so was our waitress. She was very unattentive and made me feel very uncomfortable. I had to ask my wife that is (white) to relate messages to our server because she was ignoring me. Maybe she was having a bad morning. The food was fine, just not the service.
