Customer Reviews

"We were just passing through the city on a road trip and randomly chose this restaurant for lunch... and we absolutely nailed it. The food was delicious! I loved the 2-3 meat plate option. The ribs and brisket were amazing, and the sides were great as well. The crispy Brussels sprouts and the baked beans were a true treat. The Banana Pudding dessert was the best we've had so far. The staff was super friendly, and our server was very kind and attentive, always checking in to see if we needed anything. The place is totally kid and family-friendly. This is definitely a must-visit spot!"

"This was the most pleasant experience! The atmosphere was so clean, temperature in the dining area was perfect, the decor was hand crafted and everything looked great. We were met with the greatest hospitality with all staff members, they were all so polite, attentive and attention to detail and always willing to help. I literally felt like I was at my grandmas house eating with family. With them it's more than just making money, they are making family members there. Now let's get to the food......It was promptly made to order, it was cooked to perfection, and everything I've tried was the best I've ever ate. You should even see the presentation of the food, it was amazing. We make this a must "stop" ever time we go to the lake house. Please come and enjoy the experience, you will thank me later. May God continue to Bless this awesome family business!!"

"I loved this place. Everything from the food to the very attentive server. I got a 16 ounce ribeye, brussel sprouts and salad. The steak was cooked perfectly. There was no tough spot whatsoever in the steak. The brussel sprouts had some type of savory sauce on top !! Phenomenal!!!! Being a party of one the server made me feel very at home as well."

"I recently visited the Texas Smoking Guns Restaurant at 3301 S Eufaula Ave, in Eufaula, AL. I walked in and was quickly seated and my drink order taken. I then asked about the menu and that night they had a taco special. The tacos were good and so were the cowboy beans. I had a chance to speak with the owner and discussed my meal and restaurants in the area. Worth a visit!"

- Greg K.

"Exceptional staff--friendly, fast, and genuinely attentive. The whole place has a warm, small-town feel that makes you feel right at home. The food was outstanding overall. This is a legit steak house, no question about it. We had to try their famous Cowboy Balls--bacon-wrapped bites stuffed with steak, shrimp, chicken, cheese, and more. They sounded irresistible, and while they were fun to try, they ended up tasting like a deep-fried mix of everything. Still glad we gave them a shot, but the real highlight was the quality of the main dishes. If you're in Eufaula and craving good barbecue or a proper steak, this place is worth the stop!"

- Jeffrey M.

"Best restaurant in the Eufaula area! We were visiting from Florida staying on the lake and hiking Providence Canyons and this was our favorite place to eat. From the moment we walked in until stepping out the door, the service was incredible. It feels like family and everyone, including the manager, is so nice. They even have little baby Jesus figurines hidden around the restaurant for kids to find and rehide. The salad bar was so good, as well as the filet, brisket, wagyu burger, and all the sides. Inside is very clean and well decorated with lots of cool woodwork. Really great dinner spot and very family friendly. Highly recommend!!"

- Kacey A.

"Absolutely delicious!! Best pork chop and Brussels sprouts I've ever had in my life! The salad bar is fantastic with fresh ingredients! The rolls are divine! The Texas totchos are one of the best things to try!! Shelby was our waitress and she was very attentive and kind!"
