This place is Really, Really good.
The atmosphere is an amazing western theme with what I believe to be cedar flooring and walls. Definitely a nice touch.
Our server was attentive, friendly, and very helpful.
Our Sirloin steak was very good and the side dishes were excellent. The cucumber salad nearly stole the show for me.
The onion rings were really good as well.
Definitely worth checking out.

It was absolutely delicious! We love every experience we have whenever we come over from Brenham to eat at JW’s. They always have the best steaks! They also have delicious salads, rolls, and sides!
Update: We went again this past weekend, and their chicken fried chicken dinner is amazing! It’s huge, so I had enough to leftovers!

10/15/2025: We stopped in for a late lunch when leaving Round Top. We were trying to avoid the RT art festival, so we opted for JW’s in Carmine.
The inside decor is all wood paneling. It’s very country looking, so that was appealing.
We started with the fried pickles for an appetizer to share. Our group was a party of 3. The pickles were a perfect split for us. The ranch served with the pickles had a tartar sauce undertone taste. It was pretty good.
We all had the sweet tea and lemonade mix. It was refreshing. I ordered the regular JW’s burger on a classic white bun. The burger was okay. There was no special seasoning to it. I wasn’t able to order it medium. From the looks of it, it was “done”, so that is a little too done for me. I like mine a little pink. They use leaf lettuce. I prefer shredded. The pickles on my burger were cut lengthwise, and 2 of the strips still had the outer skin on them. Not a fan of that. The fries were good. They had a nice crunch to them. The service was great at JW’s. Our drinks were never empty, the food came out fast, and our waitress was very nice. You can’t get better than country service. It was a nice change from Houston where everything is hustle and bustle. We all three split a piece of coconut pie. It was okay, but to be fair, I am not a pie person. My coworkers thought it was terrific. If I am out that way again and decide to stop in, I will order something different. Maybe the chicken fried steak. The neighboring table ordered it and it looked good!
Our bill for the 3 of us was $71 and some change before tip. That seems on point for 1 appetizer, 3 drinks, 3 entrees, and 1 piece of pie. It was crowded, especially for a weekday after the lunch rush in the country, so they must be doing something right.

Super small town with a big steakhouse. Almost every building was is within a couple, three blocks of highway 290, this is a great place to stop if you’re going between Houston and Austin or any points in between…Only 244 people at the 2020 census, and by the time we left, seemed like at least a third of them had stopped by the Steakhouse on a Thursday afternoon.. meatloaf was the special of the day and after seeing it being ordered by so many people. I kinda wish I’d had it, but I went with our Big 8 oz hamburger, served on some of the most incredible bread. That bun was awesome, absolutely amazing. And she had a Pattymelt, and even the toast was better than almost any place. Very, very happy and surprised The Onion rings. We did share. They did have cracked pepper in them, which is pretty famous in Central Texas, and I love them that way. The first time, we didn’t care much at another place. But from then on, we’ve loved them for about, 24 years, now…. It’s just fantastic.. The building itself is very cool. You get in there, and you get kind of an old wood paneled back in the day type of restaurant, and it was just fun to see all the farmers and landowners and small town people coming in. And having their little individual meetings and break from work and enjoying their meals..

Absolutely exceeded my expectations!
I ordered the JW’s burger and it was one of the best I’ve ever had — perfectly cooked, juicy, and the sauces were just right. We also tried the baked potato and the homemade onion rings. The onion rings were a standout: super fresh, crispy, and not greasy at all. It was such a great surprise to find this level of quality in a roadside spot. If you’re passing by, do yourself a favor and stop here. You won’t regret it!

First time here with my son. This place shocked me aT how incredibly delicious the food was!
The Salmon and filet were both done exactly as requested, Salad fresh, the onion rings were amazing! Not greasy at all. Tried something new for me which was cheesy veggie. WOW, that surprised me too, it was delicious!
Let’s talk about the lava explosion and Italian cakes—-> the BEST I’ve had since I was on the east coast !
Definately going back again and highly recommend.
The staff was attentive but not intrusive, we didn’t have to ask for anything, and our waitress answered questions that we had when ordering (since had never been there). Nice experience!

I grabbed quick photos after we had started so excuse the bites out of food . Didn’t take a picture if salad.
Everything was perfect!

We drove from Houston to try this place and it was worth the trip. We had the chicken fried steak, ribeye, onion rings, and coconut cream pie. Everything was delicious. Prices are reasonable. Service was great.

The good: The establishment and service were fantastic. The chicken fried steak was great, but I needed more gravy than what came with it. The chicken tenders were fat and looked delicious. The fries were good. The bad: The fish was paper thin and a complete let down. Our hamburger steak tasted great until we got to the raw center. Waitress removed it from our bill and was very professional about it. One serving of okra was dark and over fried. Overall the place is great but had some food inconsistencies.

My husband and I had the ribeye steak and chicken fried chicken. They were both cooked perfectly. The sides were equally amazing. The baked potato casserole, dinner salad and broccoli salad were excellent and as enjoyable as the entrees. Our meals couldn’t have been better and worth the drive we made from Bastrop.

We were visiting the area. Excellent steaks and sides. The onion rings are true to what everyone says… delicious. They had a spinach casserole as a side dish that I highly recommend.
We got there just after 5pm on a Saturday evening. Easy to get seated. By the time we left almost no tables available. Very popular place. Excellent service.
