    The Prime Rib (medium rare) was outstanding, loved the regular Horseradish as opposed to the creamy stuff. Now for the Ribeye was seasoned perfectly but apparently as it was cooked on an open flame one side was a perfect medium rare, once I got the other "end " it was pretty much medium,certainly can't complain after eating half of the steak. Service by Kristal was just great. We'll be back.

    This was my second time eating here and I was looking forward to their delicious Lamb Chops but they were out so I opted for a Steak. It was delicious, perfectly spiced and cooked and a wonderful baked potato done the way my grandma baked it with a foil jacket. It was terrific. Everything we ate was great and filling. We were so full no one had room for dessert. Good reason for a quick return. As for service, it was perfect. You know the type that is always available and gets things done and refilled quickly but not hovering. Great place!

    This is the best steakhouse hands down. I bring all of my friends here. They all love it too. Everything about this restaurant is amazing. And the live music is their cherry on top. The weekends are even better with the guys that perform. Excellent...5 out of 5 every time.

    Always a lovely, authentic, reliable restaurant for good steaks and ribs. The bar is a lot of fun and everyone is friendly. The music was delightful. The place is very comfortable and it’s a little jem in Sonoita.  it’s old and historic and it’s really heartwarming to see all of us local’s continuing to support it.

    The Steak Out is - by far - our favorite place to spend a great evening. The atmosphere is welcoming, the people and service are exceptional and the mesquite grilled steaks are superior to anything we’ve ever tried before. It’s everything that’s great about southern Arizona in one place.
