Holman Valley Steakhouse - La Grange (TX)

5 /5 Peggy B: Nestled in the black land prairie.You will find a down old hwy155 Holman Valley Steakhouse! What a find!!! The place harkens back to the German roots in the area, so for appetizers, we started with the fried bacon and the fried sausage and sauerkraut balls. Dont say no until you try it. Theyre amazing. But we are not in a hurry, thank you. The salad took a wee bit longer to come out because they were "making the blue cheese" dressing ! Making ! My seafood Deluxe plate was about the best seafood plate Ive ever had. The fried shrimp was very lightly dusted. It was just perfect and the fish had such a thin cornmeal crust. It wasnt over breaded. It was perfect. The stuffed crab was top-notch with a lovely sweet crab meat forward. Pair that with mash potatoes, salad and perfectly done squash casserole and you cant go wrong. Now to the steaks - done to order and generously sized. Very nice. Now to desserts!!!! These are mostly all home made! We chose the coconut buttermilk pie and the mudslide. Boy howdy!! Get ya some! OMG!!! So good. I wont say more to not ruin the wonderfulness of their desserts. We will definitely be back!!!! *** This is such a local favorite *** reservations are recommended.

5 /5 Abel Limon: We came to Holman Valley all the way from Katy, Texas. The food and service alone deserve a 10 out of 10, but the atmosphere is a plus. It gives Gruene Hall vibes, but with food.. Miss Wendy gave my father a tour of the dance hall where they occasionally have live music. I highly recommend this place, and I will definitely be back.

5 /5 Brian S: We are coming back here! We are started our meal with the Sauerkraut and Sausage Balls. Excellent! Great battered crust, moist inside and flavorful. Then I was surprised by my dinner salad. Ice cold and homemade croutons. The croutons were a fit for us. We had to share these out of a common bowl. The croutons disappeared. Then we had a couple Porterhouses and one Filet. (We ordered the last two Porters) All of our steaks were cooked perfectly and enjoyed every bite. My youngest son was already asking when we could come back since we dont live close by. Then we had another surprise. That Buttermilk Pie, fresh from the oven. Perfect is all I can say. Ill be placing an order for a whole pie a few days before out next visit! The atmosphere is great. This place is Texas. Its over 100 years old, has a porch and screen door. Im sold. Well be back, save us three Porterhouses next time! Its worth the drive!

5 /5 Catalina Ramirez: The service at this place was great! Very friendly and helpful staff (they even secured us one of the last pieces of pie before it was sold out!) The fried mushrooms were very juicy and a hefty portion for sharing. The steak’s selling point was the seasoning, they pack a lot of flavor into them. Would recommend a visit for the food and the adjacent outdoor venue with live music looks like a ton of fun, even though we weren’t able to stay and participate.
