Have lived in Sebring for over 10 years. Was there Sunday night for dinner because a family member wanted to go. This was my 4th visit, 2nd with the new owners. Would say there were 20 people in the whole place. Service was slow at best and I have had better steak at Golden Corral. Next time I want steak this will not be it.
Steaks are yummy – Beware ask about their Specials!. We were referred to Cowpokes by our local doctor’s office and decided to head right over for an early dinner around 4:15 p.m. We were so surprised in that the building looks small from US 27 but once inside… it’s huge with over 12,000 sq ft! Our waiter was very friendly, coming by to talk frequently. We had been told by locals to try the Sirloin Steak, so we told our waiter we were considering giving it a try… Wait-staff: We trusted that our waiter would inform us of any specials besides what was on the menu he had given us…but he didn’t. It was only after we paid, giving him a good tip, & left that we found out they have Early Bird Pricing/Specials from 4-6 p.m. – our Sirloin Steak (6oz) could have been $10 since we were seated after 4 p.m. Since we weren’t informed of Early Bird Specials at all. & only being given the dinner menu, we ordered and paid $13.99 per entree instead. That’s nearly $8 more because our waiter didn’t inform us. On the chef’s side: The Steaks were GREAT! The garlic-butter topping was fabulous. Will we go back…yes! But we will go back better informed on our own, about the specials. We won’t rely on our waiter to give us that service. We would have given Cowpokes an A+ but due to not being informed about the specials and in our opinion being overcharged nearly $8 we’ll give them a B+.
Eh….. We went long before the new owners, the food was perfect…we have gone now twice with the new owners and I was very unhappy. The garlic they cover their steaks in makes you think that POSSIBLY the steaks are not as FRESH as one would like… the meat smelled a bit sour under all that garlic and my entire party of 6 were ill due to the saturation of garlic on the meat. They have doubled the amount of garlic sauce they cover the meat in…what are they COVERING UP?? Meat is perfect alone with a bit of something to dip in FRESH meat needs little to no seasoning…let alone saturation!
Very good food. This was my first time there. Owner very friendly!
Great meal. My visit was my first, the atmosphere was acceptable, the service was slow and the food was amazing. Seldomly do I ever order pasta with a seafood add on where I have finished the pasta before the seafood. I ordered the pasta southern style with sauteed calimari and there was a ton of calimari left after I had eaten all of the pasta. Don’t expect to get out of there quickly, but the time spent was well worth the amazing meal.01 May, 2011Open again…. The Watering Hole is open again.

Great place to go for steak and seafood. New owners take credit cards now. Service is friendly and food is fresh and cooked to your liking which takes a little extra time. Club Cowpoke for dancing with live band on Th – Sat.
I wanted to add that the band could start a little earlier. 9:30 is a little late for the older crowd.15 May, 2011Very happily surprised at this reopened restaurant. They relocated the 14′ alligator that used to be on display to Gatorama. This was a good thing for the ‘gator. The place is very big yet cozy because it’s sectioned into several venues… Bar, outside dining, inside dining, and a great big, step-down, polished wood dance floor. The walls are beautifully muraled with Central Florida scenery. There is a large, ghostly face of a native American superimposed over a lake. Very nice work! The food was delicious except for the fried potato wedges, which were hard and overcooked. But that was the ONLY undesirable food. The 8oz. filet was perfectly cooked, tender and awesome. The catfish were fresh and fried perfectly. Great hush puppies. The crab bisque was so good I can’t describe it well enough. Wish I had the recipe! The servers were all well-dressed, knowledgeable, and friendly. I’d recommend The Watering Hole very highly. We will be going again…soon, I hope.
