Dine On Chicken-Fried Steak Bigger Than Your Head At This Unassuming Texas Restaurant
Small-town family kitchens are our favorite places to dine here in Texas, but they aren’t readily accessible to those of us who hail from big cities. Luckily, a middle ground does exist. Bridging the gap between mom + pop and fine dining, Eastside Kitchenette in San Antonio remixes classic Southern dishes that defined our childhood. From shrimp & grits to chicken-fried steak with a runny egg on top, your taste buds will go crazy for these mouthwatering meals.
Eastside Kitchenette is San Antonio's newest comfort food destination. Serving generous portions of the down-home meals we all grew up on, this hidden gem deserves a spot on your restaurant bucket list.
Inside, the atmosphere is that of a cozy farmhouse. Rustic decor takes guests back to Sunday supper at grandma's, and waiters dish out hefty portions of Southern hospitality.
The steak is incredibly fine Kobe beef, so it cuts just like butter. Crisp outer edges give way to the most succulent, melt-in-your-mouth meat on earth, making for a culinary experience unlike any other.
Adorned with luscious country gravy and a fried, egg, this twist on a Southern classic will have your taste buds firing on all cylinders. Sides include whipped potatoes and grilled Mexican street corn. Is it dinnertime yet?
If CFS doesn't quite do it for you, there are plenty of other options to choose from. Juicy burgers, short ribs, meatloaf, and stuffed catfish are just a few crowd favorites.
Start your weekend off right with a mouthwatering brunch. Apple Cider French Toast and Maple Bacon donuts are guaranteed to satisfy that pesky sweet tooth, or go the savory route with Shrimp & Grits or Fried Green Tomato & Crab Benedict.
