- Ashe BirtJune 28, 2014The service here is great! I had a problem with my food and they were courteous and quick about solving it and gave us a discount without us asking. Truly classy. The Frito pie is also delicious!
Jared LewandowskiDecember 26, 2014Strawberry lemonade was excellent. Only place I've been able to find chicken fried steak in NYC, and it was 7/10... But I'm from Nebraska, so I could be bias :)Upvoted Jan 10
The Corcoran GroupOctober 24, 2011You haven’t lived until you’ve had the Frito Pie! We also enjoy the good strong drinks, the friendly service and the Chicken Fried Steak. One of our favorite themed restaurants in NYC.
Good southern food, and drinks too. Try the ribs, and wash it down with a hot mess.
Cole KennedyNovember 13, 2022Fun spot that’s not as crowded or chaotic as all the hyped up WV places. Chili was tasty but huge serving so definitely come with an appetite.
John SwordsMarch 31, 2018Eat the Frito pie, chicken fried chicken, and drink frozen margaritas until you can’t say “chicken fried chicken” without trying really hard. Then order dessert.
Anna McPheeJune 28, 2017The right side of the restaurant is more family oriented. Sit at the bar if you want to avoid screaming kids.
Christina SquitieriSeptember 16, 2016The fries are delicious and definitely worth it! Margaritas on the rocks are pretty strong, too.
Lenny GalloApril 27, 2024Decent place in the west village with amazing Nachos. Would definitely recommend the nachos.
The margaritas are great. Two of my favorites are the chicken friend chicken and the baby back ribs. So very good!!
f7oMay 22, 2017We loved it, the food was great and I can tell you you won't be hungry after that. I recommend the pulled pork burger but you have to like vinegar.
Ricky SherrillJuly 25, 2015Their Country Fried Steak is a must try. It's always cooked perfectly. Also give the Whisky Pork Chops a try.
CarolApril 4, 2024Portions are hearty for $24.99!! I highly recommend the ribs. Onion rings were fresh and the decor is fun.
Monti BrayJanuary 26, 2015Can't go wrong with brunch here. Side of cheese grits and a biscuit are delish.
EddieAugust 20, 2016What's not to love? A West Village staple with a good big menu, drinks, staff, and environment. Great for groups and families.
Jeeleighanne DuboiusAugust 31, 2018The food was sub par but the drinks were perfect. I had the sangria it was just what I needed.
Awesome Bloody Mary. The best I've had in the Village. Good spirited atmosphere, too.
Elizabeth MitchellMay 12, 2017All the food was delicious and the staff were wonderful. Kind, friendly, and very helpful.
Andrew CerdaJuly 29, 2014Jargaritas. Jargs. Margaritas in a jar. You can call it what you want, but you have to order one. I say, try the prickly pear! It's lightly sweet and tangy.
Angie JenieApril 23, 2017This is definitely a place for groups. Portions are huge for just one person. They basically serve regular southern/tex-mex fare.
Marco WinklerDecember 16, 2019The blood orange frozen margarita is a dream. We enjoyed pulled pork nachos and the fish tacos as well.
Really cool bar! Proper tex-mex food. Excellent all-round. 🌮🍗😃
John SAugust 8, 2015Chicken Fried Chicken or Chicken Fried Steak are excellent - some of the best Collard Greens around - Frito Pie is Awesome
Caitlin ClementsFebruary 25, 2013The "All Chopped Up" salad was amazing! Keep an eye out for their whimsical and ever-changing window displays.
Miguel SenquizSeptember 20, 2011The wings are an appetizer here, but amazing. Not spicy, but rubbed with a nice mild flavoring, and still quite moist. The blue cheese is kinda gross though, so carry out and get your own sauce.
Chuck PierceAugust 6, 2014BBQ sauce is good here (coming from a BBQ sauce aficionado). Had the BBQ chicken with mash potatoes and both were great. The BBQ beans were just okay.
David LeszcynskiSeptember 12, 2016Great food and great atmosphere. And a strong pour on the bourbon. Would go back in a heartbeat!
Black and white nachos, wings, specials, margaritas, tequila, mescal, the awesome people who work here.
All Chopped Up will have you dreaming of it for days. It's HUGE and in my opinion, the best salad in the city.
Georgina O.February 13, 2013The hangar steak followed by the ice cream baked potato is one of my favorite meals in the world.
- Melody EwingJune 29, 2014Best frozen margaritas I've ever had in my entire life. Not overly sweet. Made with real fruit.
David DeParolesaAugust 14, 2015Frozen margs are the best in the city. The pulled pork nachos is worth the weight. :)
Amazing Tex-Mex/American food and cool vibe. Try the prickly pear margarita.
DavidJanuary 4, 2017Unfortunately wasn't very good. Not a single thing on our plates felt home made or fresh. Everything seemed like it came out of a can and heated. Service was friendly and helpful, though!
- Caitlin ClementsMay 30, 2013Amazing salads with warm grilled chicken on top. Fun window decor that changes seasonally.
RazorfishSeptember 20, 2011It's like they transported a Western Dad's basement from the late 70's… to NYC… on an Airstream. Hard to find a friendlier place to drink. — Ben T., Creative
Andrew LoweAugust 20, 2011The mac & cheese tastes just like moms home cooking. Cowgirl has the best comfort food you'll find in all of NYC
Village VoiceSeptember 17, 2010Cowgirl's chicken fried steak is exemplary in every way-it's something of a culinary miracle. Underneath is a mound of mashed potatoes, which is the proper accompaniment
All the servers are super friendly and the Texas toast/biscuits are fab. Highly recommend doing brunch
