This place is an interesting slice of the American West. You get cowboy hats and cattle ranchers mixed in with families and a few tourists, but what really stands out is the food. Make no mistake: the food is great. From the house-made rolls and scratch ceaser dressing to the delicious bacon wrapped jalapeños. This was the perfect dinner after a day of mountain biking. Then you get the beef. Keep in mind that the actual cut of meat you'll consume comes directly from their own cattle (there's a cattle auction next door). In other words,  the Strayhorn Grill is to "localvores" what the cannabis cup is to Cheech & Chong. It's so local you're basically eating food from their backyard. Service was solid, but the cocktail was a bit sweet and lacking the main ingredient. And my steak was slightly over-cooked. It was still really tasty.
The ambiance is bright and open. It's not really the best place for a date, but a fun experience for a group or family. Also, be advised that location is a little confusing but just go to the address drive into the lot for the giant Cattle Exchange and the grill is to the left with an unmarked entrance.
Very good restaurant, a locals hide away with awesome food. Â I've been there twice, once for lunch (steak sandwich -- delicious), once for dinner (ribeye -- YUM). Â The food was always excellent, the service during dinner was a bit slow, but it was a Friday night and they were busy. Â It can get a bit noisy on the busy nights, but the food makes up for any misdoings.
Review Source:Love that our Grand Junction friend took us here. Very fresh/delicious meat. I'm not even a big meat person, but I like this meat. Â The prices are very reasonable as well.
I have yet to try the pie (shocker! I know), but everything we have had has been very delicious. I even tried to be good the last time I was there and got a salad with steak on it and it was such a good salad (or was I just hungry?), but either way, it settled nicely in my tummy.
The wait staff is very friendly there, and I love the family feel of it.
We stopped here for dinner on our way to Grand Junction after reading Yelp reviews. Great food. Friendly atmosphere. Amazing peach pie. Liked it so much we stopped again for lunch coming back from Aspen. A local's place. Gives you a feel of what ranching lifestyle is like. And food is great. Highly recommend stopping in here!!
Review Source:This place is quite the hidden treasure, but it is sooo worth the drive! Only open for dinner on Friday and Saturday nights, breakfast and lunch 7 days a week. The atmosphere is upscale western, you can dress casual or dress up a little too.
They have a GREAT selection of steaks that range from $16-25+. I recently had their special, which was a $16 Flatiron steak and it was better than any filet or ribeye I can remember having!!! They also have a great Country Fried Steak, their hamburger is delicious also.
We basically count the days until Friday night and find excuses to go! Â Ask for Toby, she is the BEST!!!
What a find.....only restaurant in Loma, and what a place it is. Â The food was delicious, the staff efficient and super-friendly, and the venue, well, interesting! Â There aren't too many places in the world where you can enjoy a yummy bowl of cheesy grits with andouille sausage, then step into the lobby to learn about artificial insemination of cows. Â LOVE IT. Â We will definitely be back when our travels take us that far west on I-70.
Review Source:There is no sign, so just drive through the huge dirt parking lot of the Cattleman's Association building and the door is towards the left. I visited after reading the other positive Yelp reviews. It's wonderful! I had the chicken fried steak and it was excellent. The beef was flavorful and tender and the breading and gravy were perfect. The mashed potatoes were made from Yukon Golds and were also very tasty. After seeing some huge open face prime rib sandwiches go by I knew I'd have to come back to try one out. The entire staff is friendly and professional, the restaurant and bathrooms are immaculate, and if you time your visit right, you get to attend a livestock auction after your meal. If you want  a truly authentic cowboy food experience, this is it.
Review Source:Located on Hyw 6 just west of Hwy 139 in Loma. The building is the WS cattlemans auction place, the restaurant is on the left side of the building. The restaurant is very pleasant with county theme(of course), the ligthing is not to bright or dim, the music is just in the background, just right. It has a full bar with 12 of so bar stools. Our servers were very pleasant and helpful but did not get in the way. The menu was western style food, burgers, steaks and such, all home cooked fresh and hot! I had the burger with chillies, it was great, best burger in the Valley, beat Red Robbin. The better half had chicken fried steak, outstanding with homemade potatoes. The bottom line is the beer was cold, food was hot and fresh and the service and servers were great. Ya gotta go.
Review Source:What a great surprise. About a mile west of the intersection of Hwy 6 & 50 and Colorado 139 is the Strayhorn Grill. The grill is in the Western Colorado Cattleman's Sale Barn so you can imagine the outstanding western decor. The food is excellent. My wife and I were there for the Sunday brunch. This was the first Sunday brunch they had done so service was just a little slow but not a problem. My wife said the omelet she had was "the best". I had the Stockman, a huge slice of prime rib, eggs, hash browns, toast. The portions were very generous and delicious. Take a drive to "cowboy country" and enjoy a great meal, wonderful service, and very reasonable prices.
