    I was here as a german soldier in 1985 and this steakhouse is definitely one of my best positive memories. Never before and never after have I had steaks as good as these. Nice to see that things like that still exist

    I live in El Paso, TX. We used to come to Cattlemens only for special occasions a few times a year. Now we try to come at least once a month. I've been to a few different steak houses like Great American, West Texas chophouse, coralitos, Texas roadhouse, logas, outback, gallaghers steakhouse in las vegas, a few others in Mexico, and some others that I probably forgot but I can tell you that even though cattlemens doesn't have dry aged meat it is still the best steak I have ever tried! I always go for the cowboy medium rare with a side of fries and order of grilled jalapeños. 😍 I STRONGLY recommend trying cattlemens if your just passing by or even if you're from a different state or country. YOU WON'T be disappointed!!!

    From San Francisco CA Office,
    We need to bring the team to this restaurant next time we are in El Paso. Sir. I was not aware this place existed in Fabens. We will certainly have to visit for a dinner outing. Love a good steak!

    Just ate there a month ago. I lived in El Paso for 4 years and ate there once every couple of months. It's not cheap but well worth it. Decent drive from El Paso but worth it. The cole slaw is my favorite, it has pineapple in it and gives it a very unique and great taste. Medium rare ribeye is the way to go for me. Put some cheese, sour cream and bacon on that baked potato too.

    I would settle my horse there for a weekend, then ride a ways towards the cliffs.

    one of the more famous movies filmed there was courage under fire. i remember being a teen and thinking it was a trip to hear about denzel washington, lou diamond phillips and meg ryan sightings all over el paso. matt damon was in that movie too, only he wasn't famous yet. lol
    in fact, if you freeze at 0:31, you'll see a helicopter just crashed in the lower right center of the screen. that's the crashed heli they used in the movie. indian cliffs still holds horse and hay rides for both riders and non-riders through the cliffs, and the chopter is one of the places they take you too. great selfie op for the kids, hehe

    I can't believe he didn't say anything about the pineapple coleslaw. That is the only place I've had it and it's good. Also west veiwing glass wall room . Where every evening at sunset they throw the scraps in to the cliff/bluff bottom and a good 100 coyotes come rushing in and fight over the scraps. It's amazing to see. The cowboy 32 oz porter house steak is favorite .

      Long story, but Jack Nunn who started The Great American Land and Cattle Company and Great American Steakburger in El Paso started out at Cattleman's. They serve the pineapple cole slaw there too. Probably same seasoning too. You can buy their seasoning from either the store or from Claude's Sauces online. Jack and wife Peggy has since passed away, don't know the new owners.
      Jack's brother Teako Nunn and wife Josie own Sparky's in Hatch, NM.

    Years ago, my wife's boss invited some workers to Cattleman's and my son and I tagged along. One lady co-worker said she wasn't in the mood for beef so she told the waitress, "Let me have the Mongoloid Chicken." My son and I both looked at each other as if to say, "Did she really say that??" and burst out laughing. Everyone in the place was looking at us wondering what we were laughing so hard at. She looked at us and sheepishly said, "Heh heh, I meant Mongolian Chicken, didn't I?"
