Rex Steakhouse - Conroe

Bistro Italiano Rex SteakhouseMy goal with the visit was to support the local small restaurant. Understanding of the struggle post covid with staffing challenges and surging prices. We were a party of 4 with 6:30pm reservations.Unfortunately, we had a poor experience and will not be back. $180 bill for 2 people, this is not the advertised “extravagant fine dining experience” we were hoping for!Our many frustrating experiences. Ordered a Pinot Noir bottle, they were out of ALL Pinot wine! We settled for offered Syrah. Dinner ordered speciality bone-in cowboy ribeye and normal ribeye medium rare with sides. The cowboy steak arrived with no bone-in, looked like normal ribeye. Both steaks were overdone. They were out of many sides including creamed spinach. While the appetizers came out quickly, we waited 90 min for our main courses to arrive when the restaurant had only 5 tables with customers. We were really frustrated with this long delay and bringing steaks not as advertised. Want bacon bits on your baked potato, $4 added..really for bits? Then a 20% auto gratuity is automatically added for a 4-top table. We did not see this quoted on the menu..oh well.My message to the owner/ management. The wait staff is doing the best they can, feel sorry for them. Accountability is at the management and chef. Improve your inventory with meals as quoted or be transparent up front before ordering. No bone-in ribeyes are served yet ordered. Hearing many times "I’m sorry we are out of that item”. The 90min wait for your meal to arrive is excessive, we were ready to leave with only appetizers served. I realize it’s a struggle to remain in business in tough times, please focus on improving. We went for dessert down the road at the higher end place and had a positive experience. We tried supporting the small establishment, unfortunately $180 for 2 and poor experiences we will not be back.

We have had dinner here several times. The atmosphere is quiet, relaxing, and just all around pleasant after a long day at the office. The beer is ice cold, mixed drinks are on point. You must have the smoked bacon as an appetizer! The aged beef is served on a 500 degree plate cooked to perfection. Rina always takes very good care of us. A family-owned and operated restaurant and always a fine dining experience.

Omg we read the amazing reviews about this place, and I’m happy to say it surpassed our expectations! I brought my husband here for his birthday dinner and Rina went above and beyond. She noticed I was a little stuffy, and made me a hot tea. The steaks are served on 500 degree plates, all the food is fresh and the sauces are so savory. I encourage anyone who wants a good meal with impeccable customer service to try them out. Family owned, cozy atmosphere and very reasonable prices. Ohhhh and make sure you try the lemon cake! Hats off to Rex’s!!!!

Hands down the best food in conroe. Never had a bad experience. Bisque is awesome, attention to detail is always on point...

Best steak I have ever had! Best Experience as well. Waiter made us feel welcome! Will always make this a must when in TX!
