12 Gage Restaurant

I had a terrific Valentine’s Day dinner here. I got the Prime NY Strip and I would most certainly get it again. It’s the biggest strip I’ve ever order and was cooked perfectly. Really appreciated 12 Gage bringing in live music. The young woman played during my entire dinner - no breaks - quite impressive. If you’re staying at the Gage Hotel, you must get a reservation here to round out your visit.

Phenomenal steak and service. 12 Gage is an oasis in the Texas desert. I had the rib-eye steak medium rare that was juicy and red with a recommended red wine that paired nicely. Simply a must-do if you’re in the area!

Great food and drinks; especially good given the small town locale. It’s busier than you’d think, so be sure to make reservations.

The filet is especially awesome.

A bit pricy but what does anything cost anymore anyway?

We had a fantastic meal. The food was well prepared, artfully flavored and overall superb. The atmosphere and decor were unique and inviting. The reason I only give it 3 stars is because of the service, beginning with a less than pleasant host with poor communication skills. The server was friendly, however, she brought the main course while we were finishing the appetizer. That happens, but please clear the plates when it is finished. Also, we should not have to ask for water refills. When glasses are clearly empty, please offer more.

First class food, setting, service. Not what you might expect to find in a west Texas railroad town but it's a gem. Accompanied by the amazing hotel and bar, it's truly a destination.
