Loco Coyote Grill - Glen Rose

Great place to hang out with friends enjoy some awesome food. The place does get busy. Be patient, enjoy a few beverages and time with friend.......the food is worth the wait.

When I decided to take my daughter to Glen Rose to watch dinosaur tracks and eat barbecue, my original plan was to visit the older ‘cube restaurants in downtown Glen Rose. I have a little more research, but, and found Loco Coyote with all its excellent reviews. Although it was a much longer journey from Dallas to the remote location, it seemed worth the risk. Boy, it was. When you pull up, it looks like a descended temple in the middle of the boonies, where you often find the best food and service, by the way. Outside the crazy looking door, the host has set us up. Our server welcomed us with enthusiastic hospitality and fast service. Sit down within maybe ten minutes, we have plenty of delicious food. I had the three-meat plate with pane breeze, ribs and sausages, onion rings and Coleslaw, while my daughter had a cut Brisket sandwich and Cheesy Mais. She swallowed her plate in about five minutes and brushed up every last piece of sauce, although it is usually not a fast eater. I couldn't finish all the food stacked blanket up on my plate, even after I share some with my daughter. But I wanted to. The ribs were excellent, some of the best I ever had. They were juicy and tender, but not overcooked. The brisket was very good, with a nice piece of crust and a decent amount of smoke. Solid. The sausage was great. It was even better provided with the thick cut fresh onion and pimple slices. Our server was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. When it was clear that I couldn't finish, he brought a to-go box and asked us if we wanted to go drinks too. The payment was quick and easy. We went to the adjacent souvenir shop and liked to buy some items. For the health-conscious (although I don't understand why someone would choose a barbecue place health-consciously), their menu is more diverse than just grill. They have grilled fish, salads and the like as well as a children's menu. They also serve wine and ice-cold beer. I would recommend Loco Coyote to anyone who wishes both great food and a colorful experience. We'll go back to town for the next time, which I hope will be soon.

It's a nice ride over enjoyed with friends.... The food is worth every mile.... The BBQ is the best around and so are all sides.... We don't wait because that means that food is really good... The service is also top notch!!!!

First time to Loco Coyote this afternoon. I must say I have never been more pleased with the food, service and ambiance in my 75 years of restaurant patronizing. Food was super good. I had the brisket plate and my lady friend had the 2-piece catfish plate. Both of us had enough left over to make a lunch for tomorrow. Main entrees were super, sides were super, even the salsa for chips and salsa was wonderful. Service was excellent by all of your servers. You guys can count on both of us being back soon. I just wished it was closer for me in Fort Worth.

Fabulous food, atmosphere and staff. Portions are huge and delicious. Very fun. Long way from home but worth the hour drive. Will be back.
