| - Great hole-in-the-wall country steakhouse. i don't cook and this place is like 3 minutes from my house, so when my wife was pregnant on on bed rest, I went and grabbed take out from here 3 or 4 nights a week for about 6 months.
They have amazing burgers, steaks, prime rib, pork chops, appetizers, and some of the best chicken fingers I've ever eaten. Their Chicken fried steak is pretty scrumptious too. Also, they have an actual charbroil grill in the back, so the steaks and chops taste just like they came off the BBQ grill in my backyard. I've tried their desserts a few times, and they are okay, but nothing to write home about. Pretty basic cafe cakes and pies plated in a spinning display case.
Other than their insane 1 pound monster burger, their portions are not huge, but adequate. Their prices are mostly "Old Vegas" low (Like $1.99 breakfasts and $5.99 steak dinners) They do have a flat $2 service charge for to-go orders. They claim it is to cover the cost of the extra styrafoam packaging materials and plastic utensils.
The place is clean, but it is in a very old casino, so it has the stale smoke smell kind of permeating everything. If smoke bothers you, this is probably not a great place for you. Service is all dependent on who you get. Some are quick and personable, and some are not so great. Leon on the graveyard shift is by far my favorite server and he is AMAZING.
All in all, the Chuckwagon Restaurant at the Longhorn Casino is a great place to get simple country style comfort food at a great price. For the money, it's one of the better values in town.
