The Armadillo Grill

Horrid! I feel decieved. We ordered the "Armadillo Toes" after reading the hype of the reviews. The one slice of bacon they were wrapped in was as thin as a piece of paper. However the worst part was the steak. We were talked in to ordering the 2 steak special with an appetizer because it was the special. In the menu they put the steak as aged 21 days. Make it sound real appetizing! Blah! Was about the same quality as ponderosa. GROSS! What a waste of money. Also the service was so-so.

Yet another great find from Yelp! I was traveling back from a sales call and decided to try this place out, I wasn't disappointed! At first glance this was a rundown place, but once you walk inside it looks just like a restaurant that would be in Dallas!

I had to try the "Armadillo Toes" because it's their specialty! These are bacon wrapped jalapeno's stuffed with monterey jack cheese. They were great and not over the top spicy. For my entree I tried the chicken fried buffalo steak with fries and cottage cheese. It was excellent and not to greasy.

Overall, the service was great and I'm looking forward to driving through Bowie again!

I stopped at this little dusty hole in Bowie, TX off hwy 287 for the night.  There was a little restaurant named The Armadillo Grill.

I decided to give this place a try and to my surprise it was great. I ordered the chicken fried steak with mash potatoes and the armadillo toes. My order was cooked to perfection, sometime you get those chicken fried steaks that are undercooked, not here. The breading was crispy, light and seasoned well.  The steak and mash took up the entire plate, also the couple across from me ordered some hamburgers and they looked great, very good size as well.  

Now the Armadillo Toes are jalapeno peppers stuffed with cheese wrapped with bacon and grilled over an open flame - absolutely right on, these were very good.

My server was very friendly and never left me for to long. I would definitely recommend this place and I can't wait to pass through Bowie, TX again.
