Let's be honest, I am not the one who likes to bring people down. But sometimes the truth has to come out.
I was disappointed to be let down by a steakhouse that was hyped up by many people. Personally, I felt like there were better overall steakhouses than Bob's. I think another letdown is to see the owner (who I assumed is the owner, based on his name, Bob) personally speaking/greeting tables who seemed more "high class" instead of all customers. And then, seeing those exact customers be rude to the wait staff and valet staff.
Food:
Everything came with a loaf of bread and butter, along with a container of pickles and bell pepper.
- Prime Ribeye (8/10): The steak was good, not great. I got my normal medium rare. You can see a nice char and crust on the steak, which is always great. But my first bite, something did not taste "amazing" to me. It seemed as if it lacked flavor and seasoning. After a few bites, it started tasting better. I realized they possibly forgot to season the steak fully. Normally this should not be an issue, but for a Steakhouse known to be one of the best in DFW, I'm imaging every bite to be delicious. However, my steak came with a piece of carrot and skillet fried potatoes tossed in gravy and sautéed onions, which they are apparently known for. The potatoes were a hugeee let down.
- Jumbo Scallops Tuscan Pasta (6/10): My wife ordered this, and she was not impressed, especially for the price of $60+ for a pasta dish with 4 scallops that had no flavor. There's not much to say for this entree besides the fact it was not good.
- Lamp Chops (9/10): We got this for the appetizers and was by far one of our favorite things. It was cooked and seasoned perfectly. I would say the only thing wrong was that it was a bit too salty.
Mushrooms & Spinach (4/10): Not sure what they were trying to do here with this. But was not a fan of this... just was spinach with mushrooms. Lacked seasoning and flavor.
Overall, besides the fact that I wasn't too impressed with the steakhouse. I would say the steak was up there in one of the better steaks I've eaten. But I will not say that this is the best steak or best steakhouse ever or in DFW.
