About:The hokey name and checkered plastic tablecloths belie the mouthwatering (and pricey) steaks, chicken and seafood at this San Antonio institution. The Barn Door runs its own butcher shop, and every aged cut is tender and juicy. This steakhouse is huge and its atmosphere is casual, with pictures of horses and cowboys telling the story of old Texas. It's equally suited to a business lunch, a first date or a family night out. If you find yourself waiting for a table on the weekend, wander into the bar and check out the horse racing memorabilia. At lunch, try a tenderloin sandwich or a chicken-fried rib eye steak. At dinner, the six-ounce Lady's Filet and the 14-ounce Gentlemen's Ribeye is most tempting. The restaurant also serves a great selection of seafood, chicken, chicken livers, pork chops and quail. If you're dining with a good friend, pour some extra-garlicky Green Goddess dressing on your salad.

    If you are looking to eat in your grandma's closet, then this place is for you. As soon as we entered, the smell of moth balls and 'old' consumed our nasal cacvities. Should have turned away right then, but no, we had to be brave and try it. They sat us at a table in the corner and farthest away from other human beings. "I wonder why"? The service was slow and our order was taken after two other tables that were seated after us. The pork chops were as dry as arizona--I like the taste of cardboard now. The side order of mushrooms towered over the steak we ordered (it was small). Yeah I know someone will respond "well you got them on a bad day". Well I dont care what you think. This place is overrated. Go to roadhouse or saltgrass.

    Mad mexican go home! Taco Bell is your place. They probably sat you away from everyone because you stink. Your wife is overrated according to Rodrigo.

    there were a lot of reviews saying 'pricey' or 'a little pricey' - what do you call pricey? their website doesn't show prices on the menu.
