Cub Restaurant

Amazing food (best steaks in town....the Potatos Au Gratin are to die for as well), awesome atmosphere, great bartenders/drinks/prices, pool tables, touchtunes to play all your favorite music, great people and on top of all that you’ve got amazing management in Roger Wilbanks, Gary Brooks and Daniel Pierce! I’ve work for all three of these men and couldn’t have asked to be apart of a better team!! If you’re passing through town and don’t stop here, you’re missing out!!!!!!

Not that I didn't know what to expect with regards to the size and location, because I did. It's a very small and quaint restaurant in the back of a little old Shreveport iconic lounge. The Cub has a reputation for extremely good food and priced to match. It, unfortunately, only lived up to half it's reputation. Went on the Wednesday b4 valentine's day. We started with an appetappetizer of pickled artichoke hearts. It tasted like it was poured right out of the Campbell's soup can it was purchased in.....Next, I had the chefs special porterhouse medium-rare (39) wife had the NY strip medium well (35). Each meal came with a side and wedge salad. We both had house ranch dressing on ours and it was actually quite delicious! (1 star) We both ordered an extra side with our steak, (9 x2) I got sautéed mushrooms and sautéed green beans. Mushrooms were disgusting as they were cooked in the exact sauce the steak was cooked in, which proly is a spoiler to the steak. Green beans were straight from the fresh produce aisle of the local supermarket. You'd think good right? But they weren't washed or the bean stem removed, so every bean consumed required the spitting out of a stem...Wife ordered the asparagus and potatoes both of which came out perfectly. (1 star) Now for the steaks. Wife's was over cooked a little, but not bad. She tolerated it. Mine however was well done. Ordered medium-rare and it was served as jerky. Can't send it back to be uncooked a little. And based on the obvious ongoing debate between the McDonald's cook behind the half door and our track suit wearing server over the NBA on the tv, I wasn't going to chance it with requesting another steak. The bill was $114 with wife drinking water and I just a coke (from a Styrofoam cup) and no dessert. I've had meals 10x better from Applebee's. I despise Applebee's I've had this exact meal from Jack Binion's steak house and it was excellent and cheaper. Oh and my wife says the water was great!

Ate there tonight and absolutely fell in love with their food! Small little dining room area located inside the bar with only about 8 tables, but you better call ahead and make reservations. Ordered the 10oz filet with au gratin potatoes and it was amazing! The steak was perfect and the potatoes were the bomb!! If you're in Shreveport its a must stop!!!
