"Perini Ranch out in Buffalo Gap is about three hours on the highway from Dallas — and it’ll be the best steakhouse and ranch experience of any road tripper’s life. The menu is genuinely Texan, from the quail legs to the Cowboy Potatoes (skin-on red potatoes with butter, salt, and pepper) and every cut of steak in between, all raised on the ranch. Tom and Lisa Perini have a lot of friends in Dallas fine dining, including Dean Fearing and Stephen Pyles, and take a lot of cues and inspiration from them — so the plate might look familiar, while the setting is extraordinary." - Courtney E.
