Open Range

This place is amazing! We dropped in for lunch at about 12:30 pm on a Saturday. We almost didn't stop because there wasn't a car in the parking lot. The open sign was on so we went on in. And boy, am I glad we did!! We were greeted and seated right away. The fresh pork rinds with boom boom sauce were amazing! We both had the chicken fried steak lunch special, and were absolutely blown away by how good and tender it was. Portions were large and the meal was well presented. The restaurant was clean and tidy, and they were preparing for the evenings live music event. I wish I had asked our server his name, because he deserves a great review for his service and personality. I can't believe that this place wasn't packed full when you offer food and service this good. We will definitely be back for more and look forward to it.

It was a pretty nice spot. I honestly didn't know it was there. The inside is a lot better than the outside. The only thing I didn't like was that the kitchen closed before we arrived (8:50 or so). We went to a performance at the Civic Center that finished at about 830pm. We were left to only being able to order pizza (which was pretty damn good, I must say), but would've preferred to order from the menu. Anyways, the manager may want to see if anything is going on in the city before cutting the kitchen hours. Just a suggestion. I'd give it another try should I be in that area again.

Had the rib eye...nicely cooked with tasty sides. Prices were fair for the portions. Big dining area with a bar, stage and dance floor. Live music when we walked in, could have been a little lower volume for the dinner hour but the country selections were nice. Axe throwing range in the room next door...range master was very nice and informative...good experience overall...👍👍

Not bad food. I considered the steak but it was pricey. I went with the cat fish both nights. The first night fried and grilled the next night. Both were good but the fried was best. The pork rinds and queso were awesome. There is an axe throwing place connected. It was awesome and priced well. Forgot to get pics. The place was about 20% full on a Saturday night.

Last night was my birthday and we were in Gilmer, so I decided we would just celebrate here at Open Range. It was wonderful. My wife and I both had the Ribeye steak and Man, it was fantastic. No complaints here. Our waitress was so friendly, as they always are. She is the one that took the pic. All I have is praises for this place. Keep up the good work. We would both love it if you would add Baked potatoes as a side to the menu, but that is not a deal breaker for us. Just a suggestion. See you soon.
