Wooden Horse Steakhouse - Molito Lifestyle Center

I was very happy with the meal here in Molito. We had the smaller steaks plus soup. The place was very busy on a Wednesday night, but service was really excellent. I'll certainly go again at some point. Easy parking at the Molito center and a short walk.

It is a Western-style steakhouse, and the interior decoration is retro enough to remind you of the American Wild West. The crew members wear cowboy outfits and hats, creating a unique atmosphere. The food we ordered was served quickly, and the performance of a middle-aged singer playing the guitar and singing was also good. The Ribeye steak had a soft and rich flavor due to its high fat content. Ribeye steak is one of the most popular beef cuts. The cut comes from the ribs of the cow, especially the meat between each rib. The tenderloin is a rare cut that only produces about 8kg of the edible cuts from a single cow when slaughtered. Not only is it small, but the texture is also excellent. It is noteworthy that the marbling that usually improves the meat quality of beef is almost nonexistent, but the meat quality and flavor are unparalleled. However, depending on the meat quality and cooking method, it may feel a bit dry. The tenderloin steak provided at the store had a somewhat dry texture and was average in taste. The onion rings were delicious, and the wooden horse was a salad with a moderate flavor.

The service was amazing. The staff, Allen, was attentive. The facilities were very clean and air conditioning greatly welcome. I got the Denver steak with fries and the grilled pompano with carrots and fresh green beans. Both were excellent. The steak came with a salad and house dressing. The house dressing is good but to set your expectations it was Japanese sushi inspired flavors. I got to try a friend’s hamburger steak (meatloaf) and that was great too. We also got chips and salsa and I will say the salsa is different than what I’m use too from the USA. As far as atmosphere, the staff was well dressed in cowboy attire and the decorations were Texas themed. Any American travelers missing the feel of Texas would enjoy the effort from this restaurant.
