| - When I think of Billy Bob's Steak House, that 1965 oldie "5 O' Clock World" by the Vogues plays in my head. That is because it's a 5 O' clock world when Billy Bob's opens for business in style with an hour long $12.99 prime rib special that ends at 6 o' clock.
Billy Bob's $12.99 prime rib special is a nice deal that includes a large serving of prime rib with a choice of potato and salad. With a beverage, tax, and tip; the $12.99 prime rib special adds up to $20. Still a good deal.
On a recent visit to Sam's Town, I saw the advertisement for the $12.99 prime rib special. I had to go back to try it. After hiking in Wetlands Park, I treated myself to a post hike dinner at Billy Bob's.
Service:
Throughout the dining experience the waiter was friendly and on top of the Coke refills. Fine service from seating myself to paying the check.
Ambience:
Billy Bob's is a fun restaurant to dine in. My patio seat was in Mystic Falls Park, Sam's Town's Disneyesque park under an atrium reflecting real sunlight where audio autotronic animals entertain the guests. My table would be a nice spot to take in the laser show. And it isn't everyday, where you are enjoying prime rib to look up and see a realistic bear growling as he looks your way at the same time that birds chirp away, and a waterfall cascades into a Disneyesque park. My table was also along the walking path through the perimeter of Mystic Falls Park. Billy Bob's is also a casual restaurant to dine in. The dining room beyond the bar is dimly lit creating a different environment from Mystic Falls Park.
Prime rib dinner:
I was satisfied with the prime rib dinner. After hours of hiking, the $12.99 prime rib tasted like a million bucks. The portions were both quality and quantity. This also included the salad. Now the baked potato with both sour cream and butter could of been a meal in itself. Finally the prime rib, as the picture proceeding the review shows, was large, thick, and juicy. Regardless of a few Swiss cheese shaped spots of fat, I'd give the prime rib four stars.
Return factor:
Billy Bob's won me over with two things that I enjoy when dining out: delicious food at a fair price and an upbeat dining environment. Mix the upbeat Disneyland environment of Mystic Falls Park with a tasty prime rib special, oh he'll yeah I'm a fan. I cannot guarantee it, but sometime in the future I am leaning toward returning for the steak and shrimp special. Now if I could only get that song "5 O' Clock World" out of my head.
