My Wife and I found ourselves in central phx one evening and she suggested this place.
We stopped in and the entire restaurant was adorned in texas/western themed memorbillia. It was definitely tacky but not without it's appeal.
Places like this tend to tout their "Chicken Fried Steak" Uber Alles
And If I remember correctly the menu claimed "world famous, or something of that degree" chicken fried steak
So what was I to do?
Well I ordered that there "Chicken Fried Steak" that's what.
I made the mistake of Ordering my salad with "Mustard Vinaiarette"
the choices were that and "Ranch" I'm convinced they keep a cup of it around to "prevent profiling" I don't have anything against ranch, I don't hate america, I just prefer other dressings.
Our food came promptly, and the CFS was HUGE!!!!! (emphasis on HUGE) with a big mountain of mashed potatoes
The Meat was nice and tender and the breading was crispy but airy, I might have finished 40% of my meal at best. overall the food was actually quite good.
At one point the manager came by and checked on us,which is something I always like.
It's definitely the kind of place you'd expect to hear a record skip if you walk in the door impromperly attired, but it has a certain local flare and appeal that would bring me back in.
