Everything is on point. The staffs are amicable and patient. I have to say their baked potato is one of the best things I’ve ever tasted, and the ribeye was so good! The price is reasonable compare with the portion and the service. This place is a lot bigger than in the picture. I highly recommended it!

The best steak we have ever had. I got the rib eye, and my Fiance got the bone in ribeye.

Best steak I've had in a long time! Perfect temp, perfect flavor! This steak needs nothing added to it. I like that the baked potato toppings come in separate covered containers. The only not so great thing was that the blue cheese dressing was mayonnaise with blue cheese crumbs.

A very enjoyable experience. Steak was great. Watching it be prepared on the grill was a great touch. Service was excellent.

A nice place. Service was great and quick. Pricing of wine and food was very reasonable by East Coast guidelines. It was nice to be able to add the amount of cheese, hot sauce, sour cream and real chives to your baked potato. There are private rooms to have an event with food service. The bar was well stocked and nicely appointed. It is separate from the main dining room that makes for a nice ambiance.

This place is a hidden gem I try to visit every time I'm in Dallas. It's just an old school Texas steak house and I mean that in the most positive way possible. Food is good and a great value for the price. The atmosphere is awesome!

Great Steakhouse in Dallas Texas. Old Texas style pleasant atmosphere 👌 smoky flavor grilled steaks 🍳 cooked exactly the way you want. Moderately expensive but a great time. If you like old style Texas and good food check them out.

This was one of the best steaks I have ever had. Juicy, tender, and cooked to perfection! Reasonably priced for the quality of the food, atmosphere, and service. Highly recommended!

Our tried and true! The only steakhouse in Dallas to get exactly what you want .. oh so tender filet and cooked to perfection! When I say rare, I mean RARE.. and Dunstans always delivers! I never can remember to take a photo :) ambience is date night perfect and the cozy fire burning adds a perfect fall element!

This is a restaurant that is all original. It’s nice, clean and has much character to it. All of the steaks are made to order. The taste is impeccable. A must try on your list to visit.

This is everything I could ask for in a classic steakhouse. Great steak, baked potato and salad served up in a great atmosphere, and still has Andes mints at the door. Highly recommended for a nostalgic experience.

Chris was an WONDERFUL server. I have worked for 2 years as a server in the past, and he is the best server I've ever seen. I forgot that I walked I asked for a to go drink, he walked out of the restaurant and gave me it!! If you are able to, ask for Chris.

The food was delicious. You could watch them cook the steak over the fire. If I come back to Dallas, will definitely eat there again.

Very nice and comfortable atmosphere! Excellent service! The food? Oh my God! Amazing! My wife and I had the 10oz ribeye, sautéed mushrooms, sautéed broccoli, and green beans. Everything was top notch in quality and taste! One of the best steaks I've ever had! Highly, highly recommend!

Wonderful place to get a steak or anything. Open fire pit grilled. And one of the only places to get reasonably priced food that is consistently delicious.

Dunston's offers a nostalgic dining experience that transports you back to the golden age of steakhouses. With its exceptional food, and impeccable service, this restaurant is a gem. From the moment we stepped in, we felt like we'd been transported to a bustling metropolis known for its fine dining. The diverse menu features top-notch cuts of meat and other delectable dishes, all prepared with the utmost care. The quality of the food is truly outstanding, rivaling the best steakhouses in the country. If you're looking for a memorable night out that combines exceptional cuisine with a touch of nostalgia, Dunston's Steak House is the perfect choice.

If you get a chance to meet the old man, Gene, dont miss the opportunity. Food is delicious, service is outstanding, prices are great. Cannot recommend this place enough.

Wonderful old school, laid back vib. Smells like a Steakhouse should when you walk in. Place was packed which tells you something. Had the 9oz filet, baked potato and a salad. Bread pudding to go. Fabulous and well worth it.

We very much enjoyed our lunch at Dunston's! Food & service was fabulous! I had the roast beef & vegetables, my husband had the filet & potato. Both very tasty! Atmosphere is very welcoming, prices are reasonable and service was great. Looking forward to our next visit.

We came to eat here 2 years ago with family. Last year we couldn't remember how to get there, this time we found it and it was just as delicious and special as last time. Excellent service, food right in point!!!

Old fashioned Texas steakhouse. The food was very good with no surprises. I had fried catfish on my last visit and it was just right. The rest of my party had steak or burgers. All happy with the food. The restaurant was on borderline of formality - we were very comfortable in suits, but jeans would have been fine too. Excellent service and a Dallas institution.

Such a beautiful place to visit. This is my first time visiting Dallas so I wanted to try a steak at a real Texas steakhouse. Let me tell you that I got EXACTLY what I was looking for. The food was spectacular. The service was outstanding. The entire atmosphere of the restaurant was cozy and comfortable. I'll definitely make it back there again before I leave.

This is a really great place to go for steak, fried mushrooms , salmon. Catfish and steak or just a chopped beef burger. Weekends they open after 3;30 afternoon, weekdays I think they open at 12 But not sure about that. If you like your steak cooked over wood for that rich outdoorsy taste, this is your place to go. The dining area is monstrous. Very fast service with friendly smiles As soon as you walk in you will smell the robust aromatic aroma of the firepit they use to cook your food over. If you get there before the crowd you can sit at a table just in front of yhe firepits and yes they use real wood, nothing artifical, real post oak that gives your food the best flavor. For my wife and I, We spent 76.00 for 2 steaks, "I ordered the most exspensive NY strip they had a she ordered the bone in Ribeye." With drinks, fried mushrooms, salad, baked potato and the best dinner rolls I have ever eatin. Not a bad price for a nice dinner for two. It is worth the trip to go and taste the rich flavor of steak done right.

We had a great experience at Dunston's Steakhouse. The service and prices were truly exceptional, deserving a solid 5 stars. Dave, our server, was fantastic, and the affordability of the menu was a highlight. Plus, there was no wait time on a Saturday night; we could walk in with no appointment. The food was pretty decent for the price. Overall, it's a worthwhile place to dine, with excellent service, reasonable prices, and the added convenience of no wait time.

Came in from out of town with the wife and son and Dunston’s was our first stop after picking up the rental car. We were seated promptly and our server was excellent. She even introduced us to the owners grandson Andrew, who was a pleasure to speak with. We all had steaks, me, the 14oz bone -in ribeye, the wife, 6oz bacon wrapped filet, and our son had the 8oz New York strip. All were cooked perfectly. Love the baked potato fixins tray with cheese, chives, sour cream, and bacon bits! Salad was good also. This is a traditional style very nice streak house and prices are very good. Our bill was under $100 before tip. We only drank soft drinks though. All-in-all Dunston’s was a great start to our trip to Dallas!

Met up with a few ladies I worked with pre covid. Wonderful seeing them & catching up with each other. We had a private room with a fireplace, which wasn't needed that day. The food was great & the prices are reasonable. Our servers were on point. We all enjoyed ourselves

Great place to eat! I often go here for lunch. They are quick, everything I have tried has been great, and the service is very attentive. It's a bit dark, but similar to other steakhouses. The floor is a very interesting carpet that looks like wood! I recommend this place for all age groups.

One steak was outstanding; the other was rare compared to medium rare. The salad was iceberg lettuce and a cherry tomato. The baked potato was uninteresting and was delivered with very small containers of fake bacon bits, sour cream and chives. It was okay, but not somewhere I would return.

Our waitress ( Wyatt Earp) was funny and engaging in her interactions with us. The service was effecent and she checked on us frequently throughout the meal to ensure we lacked for nothing. The food (6 Oz steak filet) was cooked to perfection, was cost effective and was tasty too!

We went to a comedy show downtown then topped the night off with coming to this historic Dunston's steak house. I had the filet, salad and baked potato. The steak was very tender. The atmosphere was nice and the waitress was very attentive. It's not a mistake going here. Very nice nostalgia restaurant.

Great Service, awesome local dining, reasonable prices and an extensive menu. Something about watching meat cook on an open fire that just feels homey. Had a great time.

Solid steak but it was pretty standard cut. The atmosphere of the restaurant is fun with wood burning grills in clear view. Service was excellent and overall a great experience.

First time here , had the 9 oz bacon wrapped Filet with grilled shrimp , it was pretty good and prices were very reasonable

Food was amazing and so was the service. Took a while to get our steaks but they are cooked nice and slow like it should be. And the value is amazing. No surprise that they have been in business so long. Definitely will be going back.

This was a very nice surprise! We were hungry, saw a sign for a 6oz filet mignon dinner special and upon my insistance, we went in. The place is a GREAT throw back to a steak place with a huge fire visible in the kitchen that makes our steaks. The special wasn't a thick steak but it was delicious & cooked to perfection. It was served with a salad before and a baked potato with the steak dinner. It was such a pleasant and delicious experience. Customers were of all ages with one large young group of professionals who were having a great time. We will be back!

Really cool old ranch style vibe and decor. Food was very good and what stands out most is the value….for what you pay you won’t find better food.

Has a historic, old style steakhouse atmosphere. Cozy and quiet. You can watch as your steak is cooked over a fire. Watching the cook expertly move the meat to get the perfect temperature is part of the ambiance. I've been eating here for many decades and have never had a bad steak or issues with service. The salad with blue cheese dressing is delicious. Real croutons! My steak is always cooked as requested, charred outside, and perfectly pink instead. The baked potatoes are tender and drowned in butter. Spouse gets the very big burger and always enjoys it.

I always come here when I'm in Dallas. The value is unbeatable, a perfectly grilled sirloin steak, a large dinner salad, and a load baked potato, with a soda for less than $25. Service was good, aside from a long wait to get seated even though they were 70% empty and no one was in line. And then an extended wait for the server to stop at my table and take my order. But after that, everything was great. The steaks are grilled over an open wood flame, and the restaurant smells wonderful because of it. Really a great place for a great reasonably priced dinner!

Ron Edmondson

Everything I ate was good as usual. Service was good as well. I really like the jalapeño poppers. I have to be honest, though I do prefer the other location for the ambience and the salad bar.

The steak was cooked perfectly and the service was excellent! The atmosphere was quiet when we were there and the smell of the mesquit grill was really nice.

Travis Blank

First time guests and was thoroughly impressed. A first class dining experience. We were warmly greeted as we entered and the atmosphere is so different, unique and warm. The menu is not as big as many other restaurants but everything is fresh and done delightfully. The server was very warm, outgoing and professional. Very attentive to the tables needs. We started with the shrimp cocktail. It was a good size portion, very reasonably priced and tasted fresh. Personally I wish they went with bigger shrimp but that's just my preference. We both got the bacon wrapped filet which was cooked perfectly, juicy, tender and had a wonderful char to it. All of the sides were delicious good sized portions and you get three which is very generous. The green beans had a wonderful taste, the broccoli was nice and soft, the glazed carrots were simply divine. Tasted a little like a candied yam. Very lovely. The au gratin potatoes are something you don't see often and they were phenomenal. This place was spot on and will definitely be back.

We went here for our Company Christmas Party. Room was spacious and nicely decorated, along with the fire place going and a Christmas Tree. Food was delicious, only downside was having just one waitress for 25 people. Desiree the event planner was very helpful, she answered all my questions and helped with customizing our menu. Will definitely be going back.

Marisa McBreen

Went here for a company Xmas party. The food was Amazing, just perfect! Not sure what they did to the broccoli but its the best I've ever had. The servers were so sweet and lovely and they worked our large group like a well oiled machine. It was such a beautiful Thing to see the staff work in unison, as a team, moving around each other like choreography. It was such a beautiful night I had in a beautiful place with beautiful people. The food was delicious , will definitely be back.

Seth White

very good lunch deals! i do not like that the table stewartest does not wear a shirt ot something that represents that she works there. the first time coming i ended up waiting 5 or so minutes and she was right there all along. good food though!

Gunny Noel

A very unique steakhouse. As I walked into the dining area, I could smell the Mesquite wood burning. More people there than I expected during lunch so it seemed to be a popular steakhouse. Three dining areas the main room, bar and cigar lounge. The lounge is not a typical cigar lounge, it a room with restaurant tables and chairs. Eat and a smoke after your steak. Service was quick and the steak is good.

Thanks to a tiktok video I saw, I found this place. I normally don't frequent Dallas since my rave days are long gone over 30 years ago, but this little gem of a place is on my radar. Dunstons off Harry Hines was incredible value. Shrimp cocktail, salad, baked potato, baseball filet, drink and rolls for $40.

This was a fun restaurant to visit! When you enter, you're hot with the smell of woodsmoke. It has cool stone architectural features. The chefs cook your steak on an open flame, right in front of you. The menu was simple and right to the point! Would definitely recommend or visit again if ever that way in Dallas again.

The food is good, steak was cooked to perfection in my opinion. The presentation of the food looks a bit outdated, wait time to get my food was a bit too long. I'll go back if I'm in town again.

Not a bad steakhouse, it's been around for a while. Mr. Dunston still works there making sure everything is exceptional. The filet mignon is always great, baked potatoes, iced tea were delicious. The server was very friendly and took really good care of us. I recommend this place. You'll love the burning wood smell, the lighting and the bar, restrooms always clean too.

Remember that movie Date Night with Steve Carrell and Tina Fay? Remember the restaurant where the waiter says “how are those tater skins treatin’ ya, Fosters?” This is like that. The smoke from the kitchen is thick and tasty enough to eat. The paintings on the wall portray cowboys and Indians and canyons and buttes. The deep, dark wood of the tables and stanchions could have been from the wagons they carried the rest of the building materials on when they built the place. The food and ambience is definitely for the seniors. The veggies are cooked to the point of being mush. The steak was so tender, even the gristle was soft. Little or no seasoning. This place was made for the elder and genteel digestive systems. I’m not complaining. I’m just being honest. The service was great. Very kind and accommodating.

Service was slow but friendly. Food was hot and was decently cooked, could’ve used more flavor.

this is a very nice restaurant, the atmosphere in the restaurant was very nice, i am giving them 4 stars because my visit did not start out the best with my food, I order the salmon with baked potato and side salad. the salad was wilted and turning brown, i could not finish it, i do not like mushy lettuce, my salmon came raw, so i had to send it back, they cooked a second one and new baked potato, once i received my meal for the second time, i check to make sure it was cooked and it was, the salmon and potato were extremely delicious. I topped my meal off with a slice of cheese cake that was good too.

Great night. Company Christmas party. Good food. Great staff. Thank you. Very clean restrooms.

Steak was cooked correctly. My knife was so dull that i couldn't cut the steak. Potato was good. Bacon bits we Facon bits. Sour cream, butter, cheese green onions, and facon bits were pre portioned in little cups served in a little red plastic basket. Dinner rolls were dried out and tough. Butterfly shrimp was delicious. Linda, our server, stated that she has been here 8 years.

Very homey restaurant and good service. Ordered the Ribeye and it was thin and not a good cut of meat. Still had good flavor. The Fried Calamari was tasty as well as the salad and rolls. My partner asked for extra sides but did not receive them, only the baked potato. Still a nice laid back place to have a meal and reasonably priced.

Great food & very helpful waiter. Bbq brisket w baked potato, rolls & cabbage was awsome. My steak & fried catfish w baked potatoe was very filling. I chose this place to feel the history since its been in business since 1955. The employees photo mounted on wall credited for their long service. I could visualized faculties from UTSW & patients dining here for years because of its proximity to this restaurant. I was told it was a fancy restaurant during those times. It does need update & facelift in decor to keep up with times but personally I like the way it is. One donot need to get in time capsule to feel 1955, just get into a local restaurant. Bon appetit.

Each entree comes with 3 sides which is a good amount of food, but the quality isn’t very good. Decent value and great atmosphere. I’d recommend it for a work team lunch or if you’re craving old-style food options

Came in tonight around 8pm, got seated with two other guests and we waited between 10-15 minutes before we were ever waited on. We were on the row going towards the bathroom, another couple was seated closer to the area where the food was prepared and they were seated right after we were and the waitress on that side immediately waited on them. Service tonight was unexceptable. One of my guests didn't order anything because of the slowness of our waitress.

Take a step back to simpler times. In the restaurant you see the grills, real would and fire to make your steak full of flavor. From the moment you walk in you smell the smoke and know that it will be good. Reasonable priced and good selection. Will be back on a future visit

Cary Edwards

It is always a treat to walk into a place to see the owner watching over his staff and greeting each person with a smile. What a great place with a long history of serving good steaks. I had a great meal without any drama of undercooked potatoes or blue rare steaks served for medium rare. The ribeye steak was good. The mesquite wood gave the steak a terrific flavor. Service was friendly and attentive. I will definitely come back. No @Saltgrass Steakhouse drama or disappointments.

William Kindred

Great place, dimmed lighting. My steaks was over cooked(medium, received medium well)but it was still delicious. Sides was awesome. Desserts sealed the deal. Overall was a good experience. I was with the company lunch outing. Food was on the pricier side for me.

Natasha Barnes

We stopped in here for a late lunch after flying in at Love, we all ordered Burgers & Tator tots or Fries. It was mid afternoon and the restaurant so there wasn't many other customers present at the time. The server was short with my husband when he was ordering his burger, she came off pretty condescending but maybe she was just in a hurry (?) anyhow other then the attitude of the wattess, everything was pretty good. Pretty unique place to grab a bite to eat.

T. Jak

This was our first and last visit. A big stone fireplace greets you as you enter. It's nice. The music selection is top tier! We listened to Kris Kristofferson, Stevie Ray, and Barbara Mandrell, to just name a few. The flooring is interesting to walk on. It's wood plank printed carpet. Yes, I said printed carpet. It's dark, very low dim lights, and that makes it hard to read the menu. The ambience is cozy, I suppose. The mesquite fire for cooking steaks fills the air. The place was clean and has plenty of seating. There is a bar area and a very well stocked bar, and a large, accommodating dining area. We waited in the front for several minutes until I went and found someone to seat us. Then it took even longer to get waited on just for drinks. We didn't even get refills until right before our food came. It's Thursday at almost 3 pm And they are not busy. We ordered the new York strip steak and steak finger dinners, with baked potatoes, 2 glasses of teaa, and a very generic tasting root beer. The steak was tender and potatoes a good size. However, they do not season anything. We had to salt and pepper everything. And they served a basket with 3 rolls when our food came. I don't know if that was supposed to come with, or come before our meal, (like Texas Roadhouse or Saltgrass). They were room temperature and tasted fine. Our service got slightly better after our food arrived, but not great. For 3 people, it was $65. I'm not impressed with their service, or their lack thereof. We will drive the extra 15 miles to go to Saltgrass next time.

Robert Murphy

Decent place to grab a bite. The restaurant is absolutely cozy inside with the old steakhouse feel. The stove is a real wood grill and they cook the steaks in the open over the fire. The food was OK, I was expecting more. Service was prompt and friendly. One area that I found strange was the silverware— it’s the cheapest junk from the dollar store. I expect a real set of silverware for a $50 steak dinner. I would return here but not for a special occasion or anything.

This location was OK and our server was pretty good. My issue was the food didn't come out all the way hot. My appetizers came out cold. I complained about it. They put them in the microwave and brought out the exact same plate I sent back. Not new food, just the same order. I also didn't know you couldn't make your own salad at the salad bar like the Lovers Lane location.

Great atmosphere and setting but the service and food definitely needs to be improved. Its great that the steaks are cooked at open fire, the mesquite smell prepares you for a better tasting experience just to be dropped by weak seasoning and mid grade sides. A delmonico from WH has better taste than what I got and of course I'm not going to compare it to a top tier SH because of the price bracket. Decent quality of meat they just need to improve the seasoning and make sure the steaks are at the requested temperature. I'm sure it was great in the past and they do have the potential, the Texas style setting we locals like they just need to bring the greatness back.

I have been Dunstons many times,but last night Ii ordered Friday special, brisket& sausage. Was tasty but the brisket iam sure was roast covered in bbq sauce

It Saddens Me To Give Dunston A Poor Review. I Havent Eaten Here In Over 12yrs. Brought My Wife For The 1st Time For Her Bday & I Knew She Would Be Impressed. We Both Got The 8oz NY Steak & Everything Was Good EXCEPT THE STEAK...They Were Cooked Med Well & Had Plenty Of Juice But The Steaks Were Very Thin And Tough..yes Tough. Way Too Chewy. I Ended Up Taking Her To Another Steakhouse A Day Later To Make Up For It.

2/10/26 Filet was delicious and cooked perfect. Grilled Catfish was unfortunately cooked as if it were a steak???...dry, no taste with steak marks. If time had permitted I would have returned the catfish. Cook from Tuesday needs training!! Previously have ordered catfish and was good.

Service was fine, but the food... The side salad was out of a bag, the appetizers were sysco generic, the NY Strip was thin and gristly, the steamed mushrooms were canned, and the broccoli was way over cooked. I suppose I'll count myself lucky the server told me not to order the spinach.

Nunzio Farquar

Usually the food is pretty good. Today I just had a coconut cream pie. $7 for a pie that seems like it was made from a mix and didn't have whipped cream, had meringue. Wasn't very good.

Alvina Hollensbe

Service was marginal. We were seated in the area where the waitress would not arrive for 25 minutes. If that was so, then why were we even sat in that area? Steak was ok, nothing special. Broccoli was overcooked. Baked potato was very small. Dislike the individual portions for baked potato fixings, as this cheapens the overall Restaurant. Would not recommend and would not return.

They say, if you want to know how good a restaurant is go in, and find some corner. If that corner is dirty deduct a star. If the bathroom urinal leaks deduct at least one. If the lamps lighting the stairs are so filthy you might trip for lack of light. Deduct another. I didn't even sit down to e a t...not here. not at these prices. I gave two stars because the hostesses was nice enough if not slightly bothered.

Nothing special... food was bland, unflavored, portioned servings, and the service was slow ("shift change lasted over an hour"). Enjoyed the atmosphere very cozy and calm.

I went on Valentine’s Day and once we got seated it took about 10 minutes before anyone came to the table and after that they had roaches run over a girls foot at the table next to me and nobody ever went and apologized to them or even offered a discount to them or the tables around them such as myself and this was after we had already ordered so we get our salads that tasted like dirt as if the lettuce wasn’t washed and our steaks were unseasoned they tasted like nothing no salt or pepper or anything

Food was not good. Service was sub par. So disappointed. Spinach at a steakhouse should be fresh. Theirs is Popeyes out of a can NASTY. Steak had no flavor but cooked right. Fried $20 appetizer combo platter was Walmart frozen food. Waste of uber money and meal money. Sad!

Party of 4 from east coast. We figured we’d hit a Dallas steakhouse for a good meal. This place had good reviews. Unfortunately, we didn’t have the same experience. Steaks were under seasoned and tough. Shrimp had no color (not grilled or pan fried) and a strange taste from what ever season was use on it. Overall a disappointing experience.

After seeing several social media ads, I decided to give this restaurant a try. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The appetizers appeared to be pre-packaged, likely sourced from a distributor, with little effort toward preparation or presentation. Overall execution lacked attention to detail and quality. With the level of competition in the market, there is significant room for improvement in both food quality and overall guest experience.

We had 815 reservations for Valentines. Showed up about 15 minutes early and was immediately seated but that was the highlight of the trip. Our server was very unpersonable from the time she first arrived on scene. Kinda seemed to hate her job. We ordered a shrimp cocktail for an appetizer and it was good, some were slimy but edible. I ordered a 8oz strip medium with a salad and black eyed peas. The salad come out and was basically water, some lettuce and ranch. My steak come out and was cooked medium rare, maybe a tad on the rare side and was not warm at all. The taste of the steak felt like they threw it on the grill with no seasoning whatsoever. Not even salt/pepper. The black eyed peas had zero flavor as well. My wife ordered a 8oz strip medium as well and it come out just fine but also tasted horrible along with not being very warm. Her salad was watery as well but her baked potato was good. For it to not be an over busy time, I felt like this restaurant really dropped the ball on a $70 meal. I’ve ate better at chain restaurants.

I came expecting a good steak dinner. The diet cocke was from a tap and tasted like it had amonia in it. Waitresses changed it and it still was tasting bad. Shrimp coctail was 5 cold plain small boiled shrimp tails with some sause in the middle. Not at all a cocktail. The steak 10oz was very thin and nothing to write home about. There wasnt rough salt in the restaurant and when i asked for ground black pepper the waitress brought her own and peppered my steak like I'm disabled or something. She was kind and tried her best but the meal was 42 dollars and it wasn't worth it at all.

Drove all the way from Houston, Texas to eat here made a reservation. Only a handful of waitresses were in there nobody came in the front to agree does we just stand there? We walked around for 20 minutes. We asked somebody if they could see us 12 ounce steak. They want $30 for it and it’s very thin looking salad appetizer and did not look too promising. I think it’s more hype. They need more people in there. The bar was empty. I try to get a beer. I donate a 30 minutes of my time

Absolutely horrible establishment. Food was overpriced. Taste was mid. Portions were small. Service was rude and sparse. You'd be better off eating at a McDonald's.

First time pick up order for today'sLunch! 03/17/2022 Ordered the Chopped Sirlion Medium well. But the meat was overcooked and extreme burnt. I ate it because of very hungry. Even avoid the burnt part, I tasted the smoky and the bitter. My throat still can feel the bitter taste.

I had heard Great reviews.... not so good me. The steak was sub par, price was reasonable... the best part was the salad bar was also a side choice. It made the meal.

There was 13 of us, most all got salads. None of the salads were consistent. One of the patriots got a salad on the side. Looked worse than the salad that come with our meal paid extra for that. Weightstaff was not very content overall overpriced.Underwhelmed

I hate leaving bad reviews, but I think today will be the last time we eat at Dunstons. My family have been coming here for many years and it used to be a really good steakhouse but it's lost it's touch. The quality of the steaks are not the same and if I'm going to pay over 25 dollars for a steak it better be worth it and the last two times we have been here our steaks were horrible. The food just doesn't taste fresh, even the salad was sad. We love Gene and bless his heart, he has done a remarkable job through the years and I think that's what we will miss.

I can definitely say I will never go back again. This place is over priced and the food is mid if even that. Our group had 26 people, and they gave us 1 server. The whole evening she seemed irritated and even more so if you asked for anything. She hardly said a word to anyone and if you asked for something, she would just walk off, never acknowledging whether you were going to get your drink or straw or anything. The room we were in was cold but thank goodness for the fireplace. I do not recommend this place if you have a big party. Maybe if it's 2 guest it could be better, but I'm not coming back to test that theory. My husband and I spent $176 last night and it was definitely not worth it. I've gotten better service at Outback.
