Southern hospitality at its best! From the entryway to the table, each staff member greeted us and continued to check in on our orders and give us updates.. I ordered the chicharones with beer cheese. I also had a lunch plate with the 6 ounce sirloin steak cooked medium and the grilled vegetables. I ordered an extra side of the steam broccoli 🥦. The steak was cooked perfectly to my order and topped with a seasoned butter. The vegetables had a nice seasoning without being too salty. The place is a little louder and busy with lots of people coming and out. Great place. I'll sit a little further away from the middle of the dining room next time I visit. They have a nice large meeting room space, and the menu pricing was very reasonable for a home cooking style menu 😋

We came to Hermann Sons Steak House in Hondo, Texas with our friends who highly recommended it. The restaurant is very spacious it has a bar and an outdoor patio area. It was too hot today to be outside but I can see it would be great on a cool fall or winter evening. The bar seems to have everything you could desire. We started of with some great tasting onion rings but we all came with the same thing in mind the Alvin Special. I ordered mine hot and it was perfect. I also had a trip to their great salad bar and had fried mushrooms. Everything was well prepared and tasted great. The salad bar area was maintained by a staff member that kept everything in order and clean, very impresive.

First time here. We're greeted and seated. I ate the chef's special that had a sweet and spicy sauce on top. I wasn't sure about that as a topping but to my surprise it was delicious! Loved the fried mushrooms that were seasoned just right and hubby had that Big Tex burger. All I can say is that I was glad we stopped by after passing it up several times while driving to Uvalde from San Antonio. Will surely stop by again to try other dishes.

Super great service! Hand made foods that taste amazing! Super fun folksy decor. They have a really cute gift shop. Think Cracker Barrel but cuter. Who ever is their buyer is killing it! I had their signature chopped steak. I wish I would have gotten the hot because it was pretty tame at medium. The fire roasted cream corn was a fun twist on a classic. The breading on their chicken fried steak was fresh and unique. I enjoyed it greatly. Will stop again!

Everything was fine. My wife and I had chicken fried steak and a 6oz sirloin lunch special. $35 with tip. Food was good service fine. A potata and meat, no vegetable No bread. This I guess is the new standard. It seems wrong. Its like a 1960 government crappy food pyramid. We sould all be eating better and this patern don't help.

I wasn't sure what to expect here but I was pleasantly surprised. The brussel sprouts were good, the burger and onion rings were as well. My steak and my husband's burger were over cooked by a lot, but the flavor was good. Next time we will try the salad bar. I do wish the server was a little more forthcoming with information, suggesting the salad bar or stating the burger is spicy, so if you aren't used to spice, to get mild. Or even the special for the day. Information that new patrons need to know. It was overall pretty good and we will return.

Passing through Hondo, arrived at 12.45p to find a busy restaurant. This is an obvious local gem as evident from the large groups. There’s a gift shop when you come in, great looking bar area and a big main dining area. We were greeted promptly, and sat at a table without delay. Our server Kayla approached almost immediately and was fabulous throughout our meal. We felt welcomed and were very well attended to. We chose a fried sampler appetizer with breaded and fried onion rings, mushrooms and pickles. These are served with a ranch dipping sauce and a gravy for the mushrooms. Everything was very good. I ordered a 12oz ribeye which came with a side salad and I chose the rice pilaf as my side. I was underwhelmed by the steak. The ribeye was thin, probably less than 1/2 an inch and not very flavorful. Disappointing. I had to add salt and pepper and then trimmed several inedible pieces of fat/sinew. At $37 this is WAY over priced. Compared to big franchise restaurants, from Longhorn to Outback, this steak was inferior and as I mentioned, over priced. The service and ambiance is superb. I’ll come again in the future and will try something else.

Not the old Herman sons! Staff is hit or miss, prices are a bit high for the area, restaurant is clean. Food can be hit or miss.

The service tonight just waiting to get seated was AWFUL! There were empty tables and yet they were seating no one. People were all standing around waiting to be seated, and some people even left. I realize that they were short staffed tonight but don't make people stand around when there is available seating. I would rather sit down, relax and have a drink and have to wait for a server vs stand for 1 hour and 15 minutes. The buss boy also acted like there was zero urgency. There was absolutely no management at all tonight. This is the second weekend in a row I have been here and the service was totally different than last week. The food is still good however. Try and do better folks.

The restaurant food quality is a hit or miss. Depending on who is cooking the steaks not cooked properly to your liking. There are days that it looks & taste like they just boil it.

service was great, the food was delicious , great steaks . Great choices. I recommend the steak filet and hubbie had fish.

I ordered the Buckaroo chicken tenders with mashed potatoes. All of it was bland has no flavor at all. I have been a long time customer and I have to say this was the first time my food had no flavor. Server and atmosphere were great as always.

Where do I begin? I had to stay in Hondo around New Years, and believe me, the choices are limited for dining, unless you consider fast food dining. So I made reservations for New Year’s Eve, for 8 pm. I noticed on the website that closing was listed as 9 pm, but I thought hey, it’s New Year’s Eve, they’re probably extending closing time for the holiday. Well, Hondo is waaaay out there, no street lights out of the town itself, and I got a little lost picking up my dinner guest. I called and said I’d be there closer to 8:15pm “ No problem “ I was told. I got there closer to 8:30 pm, and was once again assured I wouldn’t be rushed through my meal. I wasn’t rushed, but by 8:55 pm I was the only table still there. We ordered drinks as soon as we were seated,but when I tried to order a second round, was told” We already called last call”. Where I’M from, the waitesss/ server will let someone who already had a drink in front of them know that they’re calling last call, and would I like another? Not here.My food was room temperature, not hot. My broccoli was cold. The salad bar was nothing special. My friend ordered the all you care to eat salad bar, and was given a small soup bowl for the salad. This was one New Year’s Eve I won’t soon forget.I’m never going to Hondo again, so that’ll save me from having to consider this place again.

This was our favorite spot to get steak for along time, but since 2020, the quality fell off a cliff. I do understand that beef prices went nuts then, and still are nutty, but it seems that the cost cutting took priority. Been a few times since to try again as anyone can have a bad day, unfortunately the change seems permanent. I hate to say that because I really liked this place, I just am not willing to pay that much for a sub-par steak. I get the same thing cooked the same way every time, I'm not comparing different cuts or cooking methods. Service has always been excellent and the place is always clean.

They can improve their wait time for sure. The servers are friendly. Seems like the people in the kitchen are napping back there.

I had very high expectations for this place. Needless to say, I was immensely disappointed. Me and my date were told the wait was 25 minutes. A party of four and a party of seven got their tables before we did even tho they arrived way after we did. Mind you, me and my date are Hispanic and these two groups were not. After the 2nd group got their table before us, we approached the host and his excuse was that we were accidentally dropped from the list even tho we were sitting in front of him this whole time. Aside that, our male waiter never asked us for refills. A young woman waitress was very kind and would ask us for refills and if everything was okay even tho she wasn't our waitress. Aside all this, my grilled catfish plate looked like a serving for a child. Fish didn't look or taste like catfish. My dates chicken fried steak was delicious tho. Only good thing out of this disapointing experience.
