Leon's Steakhouse Saloon

Located in the heart of Longview, Texas, Leon's Steakhouse Saloon offers an authentic, no-frills dining experience that perfectly blends hearty, expertly prepared steaks with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Famous for delivering classic American steakhouse cuisine with a down-to-earth Texan touch, Leon’s is the ideal destination for anyone craving perfectly cooked steaks served alongside flavorful Southern favorites.

Step inside and you’ll find a space that feels like a beloved local hideaway—rustic and inviting, with a lively bar vibe and the occasional live music setting the tone. Whether you choose the nonsmoking or smoking side, the environment is relaxed and comfortable, allowing for easy conversation without feeling overwhelmed by noise or rush.

The menu is a treasure trove for steak lovers and comfort food enthusiasts alike. Start with Leon’s Famous Rib Eye Steak—a 14-ounce ribeye cooked to perfection, juicy and tender, with grilled tomatoes that earn every bit of their “bomb” reputation. If you prefer sliders, the New York Strip and Ribeye Sliders pack incredible flavor in every bite. For a heartier meal, the Steak & Chicken Cocktail accompanied by potato skins and dipping sauce offers a satisfying blend of textures and rich tastes. Fried Shrimp and Chicken Fried Chicken provide lighter yet equally indulgent options for those seeking variety, while the Fried Pickles deliver that addictive Southern crunch that's hard to resist.

Leon's doesn’t just excel at dinners. Their carefully curated lunch specials—featuring favorites like Lunch Ribeye Steak or Lunch Chicken Fried Steak—are both generous and wallet-friendly, making midday indulgence easily accessible. Pair any meal with their signature Sweet Tea or a cold Modelo to round out the authentic Texan dining experience.

What truly sets Leon’s apart is the genuine hospitality and attention to detail. Patrons frequently rave about the attentive, yet unobtrusive service—Aurora’s warm approach and Salvador’s friendly kitchen stories perfectly embody the spirit of this community gathering spot. Customers appreciate that the music complements rather than dominates, making it easy to savor both the food and company.

And don’t forget dessert. Indulge yourself with a slice of the rich Molten Chocolate Cake or the classic New York Cheesecake for two, each offering a sweet, satisfying finale to a memorable meal. The Kahlua Bundt Cake and Pineapple Upside Down Cake also provide delicious homey touches that make every visit feel special.

In essence, Leon's Steakhouse Saloon is much more than a typical steakhouse. It’s a comforting, vibrant place where quality meets hometown charm. Whether you’re a local or just passing through Longview, prepare to be delighted by the perfectly cooked steaks, hearty sides, and the unmistakable feeling of having stumbled upon a cherished Texas gem.
