Alejandra Gutiérrez Delgado OMG, I love this place! The food is amazing. We ordered a grilled ribeye, a Monte Cristo, a frozen strawberry margarita, and a spicy mango margarita! The onion rings love it! Everything was so good. Our waitress, Saide, was really nice!

Carl Nagel So good. The steak was crispy on the outside and deliciously tender on the inside. Winner!!! Love the brussels sprouts everything was so good.

Brian Hand We adore this establishment. The layout works well to separate families from the bar, the staff is always pleasant and accommodating, and the food is beyond stellar. I wish I could just order one of everything, but my stomach would never forgive me. The prices are great, too! Theres not enough I could say about how what a great restaurant theyve created for our enjoyment. Top notch.

Rob Gould Awesome experience - was exactly what I was craving. I dont get back to the panhandle often, but when I do, Im seeking great TexMex ... and Abuelos definitely hit the spot. Great service, great food, nice atmosphere. Would definitely go there again.

BradandJen McCleary Calico County Restaurant is a true gem in Amarillo—a place that feels like a warm hug from the moment you walk in. Whether you’re stopping in for a late breakfast or a hearty dinner, the menu is packed with tons of options to satisfy any craving. One of the best parts? Breakfast is served all day, and it’s everything you’d hope for—fluffy pancakes, crispy bacon, savory omelets, and more. The service was excellent—friendly, fast, and attentive without being overbearing. It felt like dining with family. Our server made great recommendations and kept everything flowing smoothly, even during a busy time. You can tell they take pride in what they do here. Whether you’re in the mood for comfort food classics, a full Southern-style breakfast, or something lighter, Calico County has you covered. The food is fresh, portions are generous, and the atmosphere is welcoming. It’s the kind of place you’ll want to visit again before you even leave the parking lot. A must-stop if you’re passing through Amarillo!

Thomas Huston The food here is awesome. the burgers are thick and juicy best of all they dont cook them til there shoe leather. the chicken sandwich is equally awesome and the onion rings are delicious. the selection of drinks include several different flavors of ice tea including one Ive never had before Coconut i tried it and it was good. the service is great you walk in and order at the counter then sit down and wait until your ticket number shows up on the screen. there is a wide selection of condiments for your sandwich. the restaurant is located on I-40 so if traveling thru Amarillo and get hungry. stop in its a short distance from the highway exit. so stop in and enjoy an excellent meal.

Tim There was no wait to get a table which started off nice. Once seated we waited almost 10 minutes before the waiter came to our table. He apologized and immediately said we could order a appetizer for free since we had to wait. The steak was delicious and did not disappoint. Asparagus was fresh and delicious as well as the baked potato. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Guillory August “AJ” Our waiter Alan was excellent. Very personable and attentive. He walked us through the best options. Pow Wow Shrimp steals the show. It had the best flavor of any shrimp I have tried. Ribs was tender and delicious. Sweet potato casserole was so good, wish I had more. Save room for dessert the apple pie was great, got to try the fried cheesecake next time. The restaurant was clean, well lit and had multiple games showing.

Vanessa C Hill Great experience Monday evening for an October event Teddy Jacks offered Kids to paint pumpkins and a free kids meal with purchase of an Adult Entree. The kids were happy and satisfied and though we didnt drink it showed they had great drink specials

Carol M We stopped at this Cheddars in Amarillo on the way back home from Colorado. It was beautiful inside, and we had a very attentive, fun, and amazing server named David. He was so personable and kind and had excellent recommendations! We felt so blessed to have him as our server. The atmosphere (we ate in a booth in the bar area) was great, and we loved our food. My husband had the ribeye steak, which he loved, and I had the sirloin steak, which was super tender. They both came with 2 sides and, of course, free buttered croissants on your table. My frozen Texas Strawberry Swirl Margarita was SO good!!! Highly recommended this location! We even left with desserts to go!!!

Steve Burnette We did take out after a long drive as we were staying at the hotel next door. Our food was ready fast and was done to order. The lady that brought it out to us at curbside pick up was friendly and helpful. The food was delicious.

Chris Brinlee Jr Open the door to the Coyote Bluff Cafe and step back into a time when burgers and fries were great. Thick patties, toppings your way, great bun choices (try the onion!) and amazing house-cut fries (mix some of the house hot sauce in with your ketchup for a little extra kick.) Absolute gem of a place, conveniently located just off I-40. Best Burger Ive had in a while, and it was five bucks cheaper than what youll get at Five Guys. Plus the old West vibe is all-time.
