Desperado's BBQ & Steaks 1503 S. Madison - 806.372.3030 $5.01 - $15 Cuisine: Steaks Recommended Dishes:Ramrod or Queen of Hearts steaks Review:Great for the whole family! Desperado's has a large variety of selections that pleased everyone in our party, including my picky-eater husband. I also enjoyed the fact that my 4-yr old ate for free off of the kids' menu with a paying adult. The service is personable, not uptight like most chain restaurants.

Review:but the service! We went with out of town guests- the waitress acted like she would rather be anywhere else but where she was, service was slow, we finally got our salads, and just as we took our first bites, here come our meals! There were ground up bones in someone's BBQ, after complaining to the waitress she said "they won't hurt you". Not satisfied with her response, we went to the manager- he reluctantly offered a meal coupon to be used next time (like we'll be back), unwilling to comp at least one meal that night. Honestly, their jerk chicken is nothing you get get at the supermarket at $5 for the entire bird! Pass this place up!
Brick Oven Bistro 507 S Alabama St - 806.342.4771 $15.01 - $30 Cuisine: Eclectic Recommended Dishes:Fresh fish specials Review:Good Food, Atrocious Wait Staff The Bistro offers a laid back atmosphere and serves good Italian styled food. The specials are usually a good pick as well as the pizza. We frequented the restaurant until the wait staff became truly unbearable the last couple of times. Don't bother with a reservation because management is unable to schedule it. Also, expect short tempered snippy wait staff when the place reaches over half its capacity. The owner pours drinks and take's little responsiblity.
