Service was quick and friendly. Atmosphere was warm and inviting, it somewhat felt like you’re at a gathering rather than a restaurant, homely in a sense. I didnt have steak I was a little full second day birthday celebration lol. Everything we ate was filled with flavor and had that warm touch. Had the cowboy redskins potatoes, the Ceasars salad which was truly awesome, they add olive oil to theirs instead of just adding regular creamy Ceasars dressing at least thats how it tasted. The Ribs were done to perfection not heavly seasoned but served with a delicious sauce which together was spectacular. My wife had the grilled catfish with Mac n cheese, truly devine. A must have is their quail legs for starters, we did a double serving because they could start a fight if you are sharing them lol yeah that good. To end the night we tried their bread pudding ranking it against the bread pudding from you know where in town lol, this one is also not too be shared its that delicious possibly the best in town. It tasted so good you could taste every accompanying ingredient, the Butter with the makers mark all blended together so good. Absolutely worth a trip out. We’ll definitely be back for a steak night.

Very cozy country themed atmosphere for dining. It’s kinda out in the middle of no where which feels a little sketchy. Once you get inside, it’s all good. The servers greet and seat you with a sense of urgency, courtesy, & politeness. They will make room for you and find a space for you if they can so that you’re not waiting around for so long. They promptly start your order. They make you feel comfortable and welcomed. I’ve been in the habit of wearing my cowgirl boots whenever I eat here all in the spirit of the cowgirl country lifestyle. I try to blend in and make it a true country cowgirl experience. I consider myself somewhat of a country girl at heart because both sides of my families originated from the US country south and I’m a proud American. So I do have country in me although I was born and raised in a big city. Yeehaw. lol!
I have gone there specifically for the lamb chops special. The lamb chops are delicious, but the serving size is too small for the high price. The special comes with a small serving of asparagus or Brussels sprouts. Also, a serving of their homemade jalapeño jelly. I’ve never had anything like that jelly. It’s very unique and tastes great.
I like the way they prop the lamb chops up on the plate when they present it to you. It’s an expensive dish, but it’s worth it to me because I really enjoy feasting on lamb chops.
I just wish they served them on the menu more often. Sometimes they advertise the lamp chop special and I’ve called in advance only to find out that they’re not on the menu for the weekend even though they’ve been advertised. I always call before going and I always will.
It would be great if you all had better lighting in the parking lots at night so that guests feel more secure coming & going at night.

I’ve been to Perini twice, and I can confidently say this is the place to have the best steak in the region. It’s expensive, but the quality truly delivers. I tried the ribeye and the bone-in ribeye with a Malbec, and it was fabulous. Make sure to make a reservation in advance, as the restaurant is always full.

I had a 8oz tender loin, it was one of the best steaks I have had. Very attentive staff and a very nice rustic atmosphere. Definitely a must if you are in Abilene.

I recently visited this restaurant and have mixed feelings about the experience. The ambiance and scenery were absolutely stunning—easily a 5/5. The service was equally impressive, with friendly staff and prompt attention. Our drinks arrived almost immediately after ordering, though they were underwhelming—they tasted like they had little to no alcohol.
As for the food, I’d give it a solid 3/5. The house salad was very basic, and the lettuce had yellow edges, which was a bit off-putting. On the flip side, the filet was excellent—cooked to perfection and full of flavor, though a bit heavy on the salt. The twice-baked potato was a standout, but the hominy side fell flat and didn’t leave much of an impression.
Overall, the experience didn’t quite live up to the hype, but it’s possible I caught them on an off day. That said, they were very accommodating despite us not having a reservation, and I really appreciated how dog-friendly they were. That level of hospitality definitely deserves recognition.

Our visit to Perini Ranch Steakhouse—along with an overnight stay at the Perini Guest House—was nothing short of unforgettable. Both the dining experience and the accommodations exceeded every expectation.
The steakhouse itself delivers on its legendary reputation. The atmosphere is warm, rustic, and full of character, with a sense of authenticity that perfectly matches the Texas charm. The food was phenomenal—cooked to perfection and bursting with rich, robust flavors. Every bite felt like a celebration of what a true steakhouse should be. The service was attentive, genuine, and seamless throughout the evening.
After dinner, staying at the Perini Guest House made the entire experience feel even more special. The accommodations were beautifully appointed—inviting, comfortable, and thoughtfully curated with those small details that make a big difference. It was peaceful, private, and the perfect complement to an already incredible night.
Both the meal and the stay were standout experiences on their own, but together they created something truly memorable. Perini’s is a destination in every sense of the word—and we’re already looking forward to our next visit.
Party of 4, total for the meal was $442, and renting both guest houses was $660 for one night.

Genuinely blown away by how amazing the food is! Their ranch burger is the best burger I’ve ever had, I will forever dream about it and wish I lived closer to this establishment. To top it all off, their staff was incredibly nice and welcoming. I didn’t have a reservation and they were still able to seat me with no hassle whatsoever. Shout out to my server Jennifer for being so kind and attentive to my requests. If you ever find yourself in the Abilene area, make sure to stop by Perini 🙂

Best steak EVER. Great service. Really nice people. Honest people eat there. Lost my smart watch in parking lot. It was taken inside and returned to me in no time. Couldn’t ask for more. When I get back in the area will plan dinner at Perini’s for sure.
