Cattlemen's Steak House & Saloon

Took my family to Cattlemen’s based off of recommendations from coworkers. Pros: The atmosphere was amazing. My wife loved their salad bar. And our server Kayden (Cayden? I probably butchered that name sorry dude) was excellent. Parking was also pretty spacious though I would recommend a reservation on peak days like Friday evening. Cons: Only real issue was that my steak wasn’t fully cooked. I did ask for my Texas Ribeye medium rare but there was still transparent myoglobin throughout. The seasoning was really good though so I didn’t cause a fuss. And I know some steakhouses have different techniques and equipment in BOH. Still, that was a pretty rare steak bordering on barely cooked. My wife also wasn’t a fan of the pepper steak. Overall more pros than cons so we will be returning and ordering different items to give them another shot. Just kind of meh this go around

Ate early in the week with a few family members. Atmosphere is nice, comfy and rustic. Food was just "ok", especially for the price. For what the meals cost I would have assumed the food would be excellent but it was disappointing. Salad bar was decent and seemed fresh. The chicken fried steak seemed like it was prepped in old oil or something. Loaded baked potato comes with a little cheese, sour cream and dried bacon bits out of a jar, not what I expected at a place like this. Sandwich's the kids had were greasy. Might try again just to see if the night was a one off but a little hesitant due to cost. Everyone was friendly and service was a bit slow but decent.

We went for a birthday dinner. Ordered 3 steaks and one prime rib. The flavor of the prime ribe was "okay", The steaks; 1-medium/rare steak was raw and mooing, the med steak was med/rare. It took some time to locate the waitress, she was very kind and they refired the raw steak. She didnt ask about the temperature on the other steaks. They were edible and didn't warrant sending them back. The raw steak came back good, and my son eat it while we watched. We had already finished our meals. There was no comp on the bill and we didn't order desserts. I think they have had the same table cloths for the last 30 years. Very dated. I'm not sure if I will be returning.

The classics are always welcoming and the best. Great service, delicious food…. I’ll always come back!

This is a popular venue and well liked. It is pricey. Two of the T bones were ordered medium rare. They were near well done. The waitresses took both back. She returned with them saying the cook said they were fine. I have never experienced a cook saying to take the food back. We refused to accept them back. New ones were made and were good. The slow service was due staff shortage (not the venues fault). Our waitress was very nice and apologized for the inconvenience. Staff shortages are a problem everywhere. We have eaten there several times in the past and always enjoyed it. The food was well plated.

Got the chicken fried steak To go. My fiancé ordered me extra gravy and extra potato’s. Got home and I had the extra gravy but no extra potato’s. I was extremely disappointed since this was my after surgery meal. This was the first time I’ve ever had food from here and was so sad in the quality and the fact I had missing food.

Its been a few years since I was here last. They did not disappoint! Its been hard to find a REAL steak anymore !! I'm NOT a grass fed/finished fan at all !! Amongst other modifications found out there now a days !! Their pepper steak was perfect !! Along with the salad bar.. was excellent. Service & apnosphere were spot on !! I WILL be back !! Thanks so much !!

This was the best steak I have ever had, it was so good that I had the waitress send it back because it was to irresistible and I was worried I would get addicted to this amazing steak

Filet Mignon was one of the best I have ever had !!! Waitress was top notch !!! Franki at the bar is the best !!! Michael L.

Hadn't been here in a long time. Took Pops for his 86th b-day; that's where he wanted to go. Looks the same as always, wait staff are very friendly, they were really busy - even at 5:20 - it's a Friday and it's Prime Rib night. Realized later there are several other places that do Friday/Saturday Prime Rib, but Cattlemens looks to be the better-priced option among them. Regardless, nobody in my group had that. The salad and soup bar are excellent! That station has been through its ups and downs throughout the years, but it's presently really nice and very much worth it. Steaks were extremely generous, well made, arrived promptly, and tasted very good. We all needed boxes for the extra. Which... brings me to a point in general about steak houses : I like the generous portions, but not all the time. It would be nice if there were a couple smaller options - like a 6-ounce, with smaller sides. I don't have as big an appetite anymore, especially with a salad to start, and I really didn't want to take a box of leftovers home. But I feel guilty as heck when a giant plate is set in front of me and I know I can only eat about half of it. I know that a half portion doesn't mean half the price - I get that - it's the value added of the service that affects the cost of the item. I'm not looking to be cheap, I just don't want to feel guilty about not eating the whole and not wanting to haul leftovers.

Excellent dinner, great atmosphere, quiet so we could talk and hear each other! Elizabeth, our server was such a sweetheart!! We will be back next year when we come back in town!

Service was good, but food was OK. My steak was overcooked. Both my friend and I had ordered medium well steaks. Mine was well done, hers was as it should be. It was so busy I was reluctant to send mine back.

You would think a place that has been serving steak as long as this one would know how to cook a steak to order!! None of our steaks were cooked properly, all were way over cooked and they all were chewy and one was almost inedible. The waitress never came back to check on us, we flagged down another waitress to get items we ordered and never got, she was in a rush and did not stay long enough for us to inquire about the poorly cooked steaks. What a shitshow......do not waste your time or money. Texas Roadhouse serves better steaks.

We have lived in NOCO for 25 years and just stumbled across this place and so happy we did. Such a nice quiet place to enjoy an excellent meal. We will be back for sure. Pepper steak was good perfectly. Huge baked potato. Burger was very good. The salad bar had lots of great options and toppings. Service was very good as well.

We don't eat here a lot but the last two times we have eaten here it has been 5 star. Great friendly fast service. Excellent steak Filets and salad bar and an awesome MaiTai .

The salad bar and soup are terrible. And much of the food we ordered wasn't good I would def go somewhere else the coffee and soda we ordered was about the only good thing staff was okay but I won't be retuning they're famous steak sandwich is very bad as well, there's nothing famous about it. Not cooked right and no good flavor . Do better This review as of 11/11/23

service sucks they took too long and charged me wrong the waiter took so long with our food and to get our bill she even charged us wrong she overcharged.

I went there the other weekend on a Saturday evening for a banquet event. After a trip to the salad and soup bar I had the prime rib and it came out medium rare as ordered with a baked potato side with sour cream, butter and horse radish. The salad was fresh and had a variety of offerings. The serving sizes for prime rib were highly variable from not very much to more than folks could eat and there seemed little rhyme or reason for this. I would have like a bigger piece than the 4/5 ozs yielded after trimming the fat. Nonetheless, it was tender and flavorful. Dessert was a scoop of vanilla ice cream drizzled with chocolate sauce. Service was rendered by three servers taking care of a group of 40. They were professional, responsive and highly efficient most of the time. While we were in a side area for group gatherings, there was a definite bit of Old West steakhouse/saloon flavor to the decor that gave a pleasant ambiance. Overall it was a good experience and I would definitely come back. The place was packed and obviously one of the more popular Greeley dining establishments.

I'm not sure what people are talking about but our dinner tonight was perfect. Tasty soup and very fresh salad bar. Petit filet was cooked medium with a pink inside. Baked potato was hot and fresh. My husband said his burger was excellent. We felt everything was well priced, service was timely and attentive (thanks Melody!)

We used to love coming here for dinner due to the quality of the food and the salad bar. We will never go back after our last visit. The waitress couldn't have been more inconvenienced by our presence. We both ordered our steaks rare. One of them came out medium rare and the other medium well and cold. It got sent back needless to say. We had to ask a different waitress for help. By the end of dinner we did ask to speak to a manager. There wasn't one in the establishment. Called the next day to let them know how bad the experience was (which is not something I would normally do). Talked to the manager who put me on hold to consult the owner. Owner came on to speak with me. He told me there was no reason for him to speak with me and he promptly hung up. We will never be back!

Great food and reasonable prices! nice soup and salad bar, which you rarely see anymore. Friday night we were there and there were large holiday parties going on. There service was great as always even though they were extremely busy. The staff was really on top of it! the food was great too!

I really don't know how this place stays in business. I read the glowing 4 and 5 star reviews and wonder where the heck they ate, because my food was mediocre at best. I was visiting from out of town and it seemed like a good excuse for my local friend to try this steakhouse. First, the staff were friendly and our server was just fine. No complaints there. We ordered and headed for the salad bar. The lettuce and vegetables were wet and the salad dressing was very bland. I ordered the pepper steak, medium. It was a decent-sized piece of meat, encrusted in crushed peppercorns. Unfortunately, it reminded me of the first steak I ever cooked, when I was 14 and didn't know what I was doing. It seemed like super cheap meat. It was pretty close to medium, more medium-well. ZERO flavor except for the pepper and very tough. If my knife hadn't had some teeth on it, I would have had to gnaw it like a dog. My friend ordered the ribeye, medium-rare. What they brought him was pathetic. It was very thin and way overcooked. Obviously another very cheap piece of meat. No way was it worth the $30+ they were asking for it. He didn't bother eating it. The whole experience was so bad, he politely asked for a refund rather than send it back and get another failure. The staff handled it very well and deleted his bill. One star for the staff doing their best with what they've got. Zero stars for the food.

Ate here Friday night worst steak ever under cooked raw. Shrimp nasty and servers are rude and don't check on you. Thought this would be a great meal but it was a zero. They need a all new staff. The server was worried about a big table and how much tip she got. And ignored our table. I am a big tipper, like usually more than the bill. Tip lost for poor service. This place needs new employees there all satisfied with whatever. Stay away from this overpriced place.

The salad bar is amazing! It's always fresh and full of wonderful things. The steaks are always prepared just the way we want them. The weight staff always does an excellent job for us. And we love the rustic ambience. When we find ourselves in the mood to go out for dinner, Cattlemens is in our top five.

Cattlemen's is a classic western steak house. It's not fancy or upscale, but the food is good and the staff is friendly. This was my first visit and I wasn't disappointed. I was celebrating a major birthday, and I craved a good steak. I ordered the 12 oz. NY strip, and made my way to the soup/salad bar, which was good but not exceptional. My wife ordered the salmon steak. Our meals were perfection when they arrived. My steak was medium rare (as ordered), and was nicely marbled. My wife's salmon was also excellent. On the side, the sautéed onion rings were buttery and delicious as they complemented the steak. My baked potato and my wife's rice were both spot on. All in all, we had an excellent meal. We will return.

Mother in law picked dinner gear for her birthday meal. Meals include the salad bar. Starting with the salad. The greens appears to be in good standing. We're mostly likely washed as they were pretty wet. Plenty of veggies to choose from for toppings. The ranch and blue cheese dressings were watered down. I mean just simply runny. No density to them at all. The bacon bits (artificial) were stale. My meal was the top sirloin. It was good medium as requested but it must have some off the grill about 15 minutes before arriving at the table. It was barely lukewarm. In addition, it was bland. No seasoning or flavor of any kind in it. Wife had the kabob. The flavoring of it was the same as my sirloin...bland. It was ordered medium but arrived well done. Also, it was lukewarm. The kabob has nearly zero veggies. Maybe two slices of green peppers and a couple slices of onion. The Son's salmon may have been the best of our meals. It was cooked well and seasoned. He liked it very much. The daughter had the chicken strips and well it's the kid's menu chicken strips, therefore met the requirement of being edible. We didn't order drinks based on the repeated reviews of the drinks being watered down, so I can't expand on that. With the extremely bland steak and kabobs. that were served lukewarm, I'd not recommend nor would I go again at my will. That's a lot of money for a basically cold steak and some dry kabobs. When the birthday person picks, you stay home and gripe or you smile and join the family.

Great food and great service. Salad and soup bar were very fresh and clean. Steak was perfectly cooked, tender and yummy and service was great. Loved the decor and atmosphere.

Come all the way to Greeley to have prime rib only served Friday and Saturday nights. They were out of it by 6 o'clock Friday evening!

I took my parents out for dinner, and I called and made a reservation clearly stating that we had someone in a wheelchair and needed a table that was wheelchair accessible. When we arrived, we were shown to a booth right in front of the salad bar. We asked for a table, and were told the only available tables open were two steps up to get to them, even though we could clearly see other tables on the main floor in a different part of the restaurant that were open. My mother was put at the end of the table in her wheel chair, where she was run into, bumped and pushed throughout the whole meal by people going to, or coming from the salad bar. I'm very disappointed as I know this restaurant has a great reputation for it's food, but a lot of work is needed for ADA compliance.

Went on a Saturday and had the prime rib. It was amazing ! Service was great although salad bar was nothing epic.

Our expectations were low going in but we thought we would give it a go anyway. The inside is what you would expect- old however it gives a rustic charm. The salad bar is nothing exciting, pretty basic but the ranch and blue cheese dressing are top notch! The soup looked great. We did not have any but many people were taking some. My husband had the prime rib and pan fried potatoes. Prime Rib was ok (2 out of 5 stars) the potatoes were dull and boring with minimal flavor. I had the ribeye (cooked medium well) and a loaded baked potato. A loaded baked potato is cheese, butter, sour cream and bacon bits. The bacon bits are imitation bacon bits. The ribeye was good and had a great flavor but on the thin side and at $30 I hoped it would be thick. Total bill with a margarita and old fashioned was $86. Wish I could give it a better rating then 3 stars.

tried this place for the first time tonight with my boyfriend. he was not a fan to say the least of his prime rib. it tasted more like roast beef, not worth the price. i had their "famous steak sandwich" which was NOT a sandwich, it does not come with a top bun which was incredibly strange so i had to request a top bun, and not to mention a tad hard to bite into the sandwich due to how chewy it was! covid precautions are not being taken seriously, open salad bar.

After having bad luck when it comes to ordering takeout, this place was a nice surprise!We received everything we ordered and it actually tasted good. We will definitely eat here again!

A walk into the old west. Prices are fairly reasonable and food is good. Not a high end steak house but a great place to go just for a nice dinner. Staff were great!

Hands down the best steak I've had in northern Colorado. They hand cut and age the beef in house. And as for the reviews where people say its dirty they are crazy. This is an old school Steakhouse. Probably has the same decorations since they opened. But that isn't a bad thing. The ambience is exactly what I'd expect of an old school, old west steakhouse. They also have a really good salad bar. Nothing fancy, just good. The stuffed jalapeno peppers were really good and very mild. I would skip on the desert. That's been the only thing that has not been amazing.

great food great salad bar omg so good, service was so good and clean , not a big crowd , its awesome

Excellent food and service! The salad bar was awesome with some of the best soup I've ever had Prices were reasonable I highly recommend!

our waitress was great, the food was great. we had a great experience. I wanted to go here for a couple of years so finally on my daughter's birthday we went and we had a good time. I got the Neptune steak which had a shrimp and bernaise sauce and I enjoyed it very much. I will go here again.

The building looked and felt like it needs upgraded. Looking at the menu, I thought we would be getting a classier dinner. NOT. They have a salad bar which is included with your meal. The greens and veggies were good, but this was just a modest salad bar. There was nothing special. I ordered their house "steak". It was cooked right, and it was hot. But, it had zero, I mean NO flavor. And, it was not tender. What a disappointment. I had a baked potato, plain with butter only. It had been baked in foil (microwaved?). No class. The wait staff were all pleasant and deserved the tip. At the prices they charged, I would have expected better. I can't recommend this place.

It had been a while since I dined out and I was really disappointed in Cattlemen's. The food was way over-priced for what you got and it was just mediocre. My guest and I ordered martinis and only 1 arrived in a martini glass, apparently they had run out of martini glasses. Really? Don't you have a dishwasher? And to top it off the waitress spilled about a 3rd of one on the way to our table. I agree with Lola L., that the COVID protocol was really lax. The place was packed and it was hard to get seated because the tables were so full and crowded. The salad bar was a joke! The sneeze guard was actually tilted up so all the food was exposed. This was my 1st time in Cattlemen's and will definitely be my last.

This place was okay. I ordered a steak and potato meal and the salad bar came with it. My wife and I split the meal and she got a salad and soup bar also. The steak was very good. It was cooked well and tasted fabulous. The waitress was also very good. CONS The salad bar sucks. It had no cheese, egg, olives, etc...It had carrots and cucumbers. For $12.99 that salad bar was not worth it. They could definitely upgrade that for sure. We will try this place again but will be more selective on what we order.

Celebrated a relative's birthday here last night. We had a party of 11 (split in 2 tickets). Service was incredibly slow. We were there 2-1/2 hours. No one was happy with their meal. Steaks were over cooked, fries were soggy, and food was served luke-warm. Two people in our party brought coupons, but the server refused to accept them because she said they were expired, though there was no expiration date on the coupon. I have eaten here before and had great food and service, so maybe it was just an off night? Anyway, I will probably choose somewhere else next time.

Awful service horrible food and pre added gratuity for our server who couldn't remember anyones order

We made a reservation at 630. At 715 several tables appeared empty and available and still we waited. During our wait a gentleman in a wheelchair waited patiently for the handicapped bathroom and when the person finally came out after 10 minutes, it turned out to be an able bodied staff member which I thought was incredibly rude. Other facilities were available for the staff member. Once seated at almost 730, one hour after our reservation, the service and food were excellent but the martini I ordered was completely watered down. I paid 12.00 for it. I will be calling the Colorado liquor board to launch a formal complaint bc it really was that bad.

It is really bad that once you get here you think I'd rather get a burrito across the street than have prime rib here. But that is how we felt. This place does little in the way of COVID 19 protocol. The tables are all filled and people are a foot away from you. The salad bar. Where do I begin? The throngs of maskless people shoulder to shoulder pawing through the offerings was disgusting. When out food arrived the prime rib was 1/4 inch think. the baked potato which we ordered "loaded" had Baco's on it. Remember those from the 1970s? The hard fake bacon crap that I thought no longer existed was on the potato. The god points, the waitress was friendly and attentive. the food was delivered quick. But then again you can get this at McDonald's down the street. There it won't cost you $70 for watered down drinks and tiny portions. Who knows what the treatment for COVID is going to cost. This is where you'll catch it! You've been warned!!!! they just want your money!!!!

It's sad when you'd rather go across the street and have a burrito than have prime rib here. First the place is packed. Every table full despite COVID restrictions. People without masks pawing through the salad bar. You just loose your appetite. The loaded baked potatoes had Bacos in it. Seriosly imitation hard bacon things. The prime rib was cut very thin. Not much flavor.. The wait staff was attentive. But seriously we won't be back.

Absolutely terrible service. 40 minutes to get a check. Celebrating a birthday, no offer of dessert and out right rudeness. We could have easily walked out but we waited and waited. No manager, no assistant manager and no one that can make a decision. Where I come from if you pay 30 for a steak you Should get the service to go with it.

We were going to wait 40 min at Texas Roadhouse and decided to find something else. Just happened to google abs find this place 100% worth it!!!! Loved everything about it. Great food, good service and killer margaritas. 100% recommended.

We always loved this steakhouse. Unfortunately I have to give it a bad review. After a long wait for our food, with no updates from our waitress, our steaks finally came out. They were all over cooked. Not that our waitress really checked. When she finally did check back she did get a manager who discounted our meal. We then had quite a wait for our bill and the waitress wouldn't come back to the table. The manager brought our change. We weren't being rude about the bad food so there was no reason for the waitress to avoid us. I was excited to treat out of state guests to a great steak. Cattleman's did not deliver. Sadly we will not be back. There are several other steakhouses to choose from.

Great place for steak we went there last winter after a ski trip on the way back from visiting fort Colin's. We were told it is the locals favorite and have it a try. The steaks are great and so are the portion. The salad bar is an added bonus and hit the spot.

So far this is probably my favorite steak house. The steaks were made to order and the food is amazing. Love the soup and salad bar. You can go up as many times as you want. The staff is friendly and prompt. Will definitely be coming back again!

Service with attitude, stringy steak, most $$ steak in town, and did not honor coupon that is from their advertising and has no expiration date. Used to be a nice place, but current owner has ruined it. He also owns the Mexican restaurant next to it and service there sucks too.

It it truly awful when a steakhouse has a hard time with temperatures. The service we received was also inexcusable. Our server dropped off our drinks, took our order and then never returned. After 20 minutes we had to locate a manager for service. Our table of five ordered; 3 New Yorks, 1 Cattlemen's 20oz cut and a children's steak. 2 were medium rare and 3 were medium. When they were delivered they were all medium well. The two NY's were sent back first, followed by the 20oz. They were over cooked and dry to the point of almost being inedible. After some more waiting we signaled the manager and told her we were thinking of leaving and going somewhere else. (Keep in mind only one adult and one child are eating). She informed us that we would still have to pay for all of the meals, but she is going to remove 20% from our bill. We decided to stay and allow the kitchen to remake the 3 steaks. When they brought them out they were rare and still cold in the middle. We told the manager we were going to leave and she then offered to change our bill to 3 salads, 1 kids meal and 1NY with a $25 gift certificate. Are you kidding me??? After sitting there for 2 hours with poor service and no food, I have to pay for my dinner salad? We asked if we could apply the certificate to tonight's bill because it is highly unlikely that we would return. She left for another 5 minutes and then returned to tell us we were free to go and the entire bill was taken care of. Other than the pan fried potatoes there is nothing about this restaurant to recommend.

This place is hidden on 26th, not a street I would normally go down. I just happen upon it one day and figured I would try it. It is a little pricey, most food entries are in the $20 - $30 range, but do come with a soup and salad bar. There is only one soup offered at the bar, when I was there it was a basic stew with tomatoes. The salad bar is nothing spectacular, the basics to make a garden salad, and potato salad. The steaks were good, seasoned and cooked perfectly with a nice sear on the outside. I tried their "famous" ribs. The sauce was nothing spectacular, a basic tomato base sauce with vinegar and some good seasoning -- good enough. The meat wasn't falling off the bone, which made it a little tough to eat. The atmosphere is very dark and rugged, good service.

If you're looking for a great steakhouse this is not the place to go, sub par food and a strange atmosphere

We came to this restaurant due to Texas Roadhouse having a 105 minute wait at 4:30, not realizing it was Sunday. So we thought they didn't seem to bad we'd come here... first it started with appetizers. We got the fried jalapeños. They brought us Buffalo wings, no biggie mistakes happen they took them back and brought us the right ones fresh. Well our drinks were empty and they never once offered any refills or asked about them. We ordered our meal at same time as app. Two steaks and a kids meal. The first steak and kids meal comes out then they bring me a burger.. I tell them no this isn't what I ordered and they looked at me confused then brought me my order. Still no refill on drinks and with all the mix ups, I was trying to get my food and not worried about a drink right then. Gravy came on the mash potatoes that was requested with no gravy.. again no biggie.. but the steaks. Absolutely HORRIBLE. While they were cooked right, maybe even a little under cooked for medium rare but I like mine more rare, they had 0 flavor. No seasonings at all, not even salt. It was so bad. I would not recommend getting a steak from here. The service was subpar. One Jack & coke, one crown & coke singles cost over $22 as well. I'm not sure if that's standard for the area but it seems very high in price. The $30 ribeye could have at least had some salt on it.

With my family... Dad says, "Prime rib best I ever had". Aunt says everything was fresh and warm. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. (again) my aunt says the temp was perfect and the meat (prime rib) perfect. Dad got his end cut and we were all very happy.
