Myself and two buddies went out for their Wednesday Ribeye Steak Night, and it did not disappoint. The food was absolutely fantastic — the ribeye was cooked perfectly and full of flavor, and the asparagus and mashed potatoes were spot on.
I finished with the blackberry cobbler, and my friend had the chocolate cake. Both desserts were incredible.
Our server, Mariah, did an outstanding job. She was friendly, attentive, and really knowledgeable about the menu. Great service all around.
The atmosphere was awesome too. We sat outside on the patio and enjoyed the perfect San Antonio weather this time of year.
I’ll definitely be going back. If you’re anywhere near the area, you have to try their Wednesday night steak dinner — highly recommended!

First time visiting. Had a great experience. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Owner even came out and greeted us. Onion rings, mashed potatoes, green beans, and prickly pear margarita were yummy. Chicken fried steak was good could have used a little more seasoning. They had live music and plenty of space for kids to play. Great experience. Will be visiting again!!

We enjoyed our lunch at Spechts. Our waitress was amazing. My steak was cooked to perfection and I really appreciated the garlic/herb butter on top. The asparagus was also cooked well and my husband enjoyed his chicken fried steak. We definitely will be back.

I should’ve taken more pictures, but forgot about leaving a review because I was so excited to eat my burger. It was delicious, our server was very kind and attentive, the atmosphere was very pleasant and clean with plenty of TVs. My other family members really enjoyed the chili, catfish, chicken fried steak and potatoes. Highly recommend the drive to eat some delicious food and support a local business.

What a fun place! Get the jalapeno popper things with queso! Thank me later. Chicken friend steak was solid. The chicken and waffles is so freaking good. Wasn't a fan of the Dr. Pepper sheet cake. Paloma, Ranch Water and an Old Fashioned all really good. We hung out for live music (Galina and the Diamondbacks). Pedro was super attentive. Would love to go back next time we are in town.
