We take our chicken-fried steak pretty seriously here in Texas, and only the best will do. Hiding in the small town of Buffalo, The Pharm Restaurant in Buffalo knows exactly how CFS should be done: it’s crispy on the outside, tender and juicy as can be on the inside, and the gravy is served separately in a huge bowl. Are you hungry yet?

Buffalo, Texas is home to less than 2,000 people, but The Pharm Restaurant always has a full house. That's because their home-cooked meals, including some of the best chicken-fried steak you've ever eaten, are truly unparalleled.

As you can see, there's no skimping on portion size here. Even the small chicken-fried steak takes up nearly half the plate—and it's only four ounces! Just imagine how big the eight-ounce portion would be.

Instead of serving the CFS with gravy already poured on top, The Pharm treats it like a side dish. That way, everyone gets to decide how much they want to use (no judgement if you end up eating some straight from the spoon—it's that good.)
