The food was delicious! The server seemed to be having a bad day. After we were seated she seemed impatient that I didn’t know what I wanted to drink yet. I explained I was just handed the drink menu. I ordered a glass of water with lemon until I had a chance to view the menu. When she brought my water she put it on the table, mumbled something and walked off. She didn’t bring my husband’s beer that he ordered with my water. Sometime later when she came back for our food order she seemed a bit better. We love the Steak Out Restaurant! My husband and I are snowbirds from Wisconsin and eat here every winter and love it. We will definitely be back. One waitress having a bad day on New Year’s Eve will not stop us from returning.

This is a fabulous, rustic, down home feel, family-owned restaurant! I love the people, the food, the tequila (iykyk!), the music, the laid-back vibe & if you want steak this is seriously THE best in Tucson & all surrounding areas. It's in Sonoita so it might seem far but when you calculate driving through Tucson traffic & awful city street conditions it's worth the calm & casual scenic trip! From anywhere in Tucson, it's I-10 E to HWY 83 S, straight to the restaurant, it doesn't get easier than that!

Loud place when the band is there. For a steakhouse was very disappointed. Filet had grissel running through it. Rib-eye was thin and tough. Salad was alright, tomatoes were old. Pepsi was flat. Definitely not worth the price being charged. Been looking for a good steak house in the area. This was not it.
