I would have taken a picture of my actual meal, which I almost always do… but it looked and smelled so damn good. I couldn’t wait to dig in; I didn’t have time for a photoshoot!
This is the best steak I’ve ever had in Iowa. Don’t ruin it with any sauce, just enjoy the high-quality beef. And don’t worry about getting the “queen” cut, that’s just marketing using your machismo against you to trick you into a more expensive steak. Unless you are a Hawkeye linebacker, you probably won’t finish it.
Bring your appetite, wear your eatin’ pants, and try the fried cheesy tots. You’ll thank me later.

Best pork chop I ever had. My wife had the fillet and it was phenomenal also. Rare experience, highly recommend!

This review is for a visit more than a year ago but I feel I owe it to this restaurant to leave them a 5 star review. This place still comes to mind when I’m asked where I think the best steak in Iowa is served. Ordered the Surf N Turf and let me tell you – that ribeye was beautifully marbled and delicious. Flat out fantastic. I was in town on business and haven’t been back since, but if I ever do return I know I’ll stop in here for dinner.

Stopped here by chance. Excellent food, my taco salad was the best ever! Great burgers. Special was roast beef sandwich. Would definitely order all again!!! Make sure you have cash. Do not take cards but does have ATM machine close. Thanks!

They have really great meat dishes at a nice value (cash or check only, no CC). The ambiance is a bit dated and western feel, but clean. Salad bar was very basic and I willful do have given 5 if a little more variety in it. Ideally this is a 4.5 score. Good place for steak or burger.

They have great steaks at a great price! I’ve never ordered a petite ribeye that filled me up until now , most people will be able to make 2 meals out of it.And if you order the dude portion , you can probably get 3 meals !
Also great service! I can’t comment on any of their other fares , although I am sure they are excellent!

Tuesday night. Waitress was nice, patient, since I kept changing my mind. I had stuffed shrimp which was very nice. Hubby had the “dude” size ribeye. I tasted it, nice flavor but a little tough even though it was medium. Atmosphere what you would expect from a small town, no frills but clean and comfortable. A little pricey I thought.

The restuarant itself is nice and clean, but somewhat difficult to find and get to as a non-local. The food is hit or miss, one person in our party got the “Dude” steak and was very pleased with the food, while another got a sandwich and was not very satisfied. The wait staff was very responsive and friendly. Overall I would say this is standard bar/grill food and atmosphere.

We really enjoyed the Cattleman’s! A couple of things worthy to note before you visit: call ahead for reservations, if they’re full, you won’t be seated. The atmosphere is really trendy, and upscale. Especially for Sac City. Cute little town, just not the gem I expected to find. Now to the food; neither my husband or I ordered steak, I know, I know. But I wanted drinks and desserts so I went with chicken. LOL. The sides are ala carte, which is typical for steakhouses. I tried the brussel sprouts, and they were good. Nothing award winning, but I love them, and my family doesn’t, so I treated myself. The chicken was perfectly cooked, seasoned correctly. The dessert, well, we took to go, and honestly, I don’t need to have again. But the drinks – those were phenomenal. I tried the Wisconsin Sunset and I would drink that again. The Italian Margarita was a bit strong, and a bit burnt on tequila, but I wasn’t wasting it. The staff was pleasant, and attentive. And we just truly enjoyed our experience. We look forward to returning, and we’ll both have the steak. Oh, my husband had the burger and fries, and loved them both.

I’ve heard nothing but good things about this place and was thoroughly let down. My boyfriend and I both ordered the New York strip steak, medium rare. My steak was between mid-well and well-done. I only ate 3 bites and pushed my plate to the side. When the server came over, she asked us if we’d like a box instead of asking how the food was. When we went to pay, we were asked how everything was and when I brought up how bad my $22 steak was, they offered me $2 off.. very disappointed. I left the entire plate full of food on the table to make it known I was not impressed. We will not be going back.
