The patio is a real find, tucked away and quiet even on a Friday. Their crab cakes were solid, but the real winner was pairing the parmesan artichokes with a crisp sauvignon blanc. That combo just clicked.

First time here and Andy was our server. Super friendly, knew the menu inside out. Food was solid, I&rsquo;d definitely come back for lunch or dinner.

Been here a few times. Saturday night was busy, good energy. The place has a nice, relaxed feel to it. It&rsquo;s a solid spot for a casual dinner out.

Been coming here for years, and Jessica&rsquo;s service is always spot on. She&rsquo;s got great timing, never rushes you but keeps things moving. That consistent energy is why I keep coming back. The steaks are still cooked just right, too.

Grabbed a quick lunch here. Love that it&#39;s in an old house, feels cozy. Sat on the back patio since it was sunny. Food came out fast, which is all I needed. Good spot for a quick bite.

The Mexican cheese board was a great start. The place was a bit understaffed though, with just one waitress for the whole restaurant.

Strawberry Lemon Drop was solid. Pork chop was juicy, tender. The maple syrup and creole mustard sauce made it. Grilled asparagus was tasty, but could&rsquo;ve used a bit more on the plate.

Loved the bacon and egg flatbread here. The bacon was just right, not too crispy. The homemade coleslaw had a nice tang. The rock music vibe is cool for a casual bite. I paired it with a local IPA that worked surprisingly well with the richness. Solid spot.

This place is huge, lots of outdoor space to wander. The property itself is really beautiful and you can feel the Texas history here. That&#39;s what made it for me, just the vibe of the old place.

The butter on the biscuits is the real deal. You can taste it. Those biscuits are huge, and the grits were loaded just right. Portions are generous, no skimping here. Friendly service, too.

Found it walking around downtown. Relaxed vibe. The food is extremely good. Gets crowded though, limited seating. We&#39;ll be back.

Shrimp pizza was tasty. Just needed more shrimp for the price.

Came for the live music, stayed for the food. The grilled octopus was spot on&mdash;tender with a nice char. Karina, our waitress, was super friendly and kept our drinks topped up. Made for a really relaxed evening with my wife.

The country fried chicken is a must. The portion is huge for the price! Crispy outside, tender inside, with a ton of gravy. I couldn&#39;t finish it all, had to take half home for lunch the next day. Really solid value.

The menudo and barbacoa here are so good. I keep coming back when I&#39;m in town. The place itself is simple and clean, which I really like. Just a solid, no-fuss spot for a great meal.

The homemade pies are the real star here. Grabbed the chocolate meringue and cherry with a couple friends after dinner. Perfect for sharing and that meringue was so fluffy! 🥧

The ribeye here is a standout. Cooked exactly to medium rare, it had a nice sear and was incredibly tender. The flavor was rich, with just the right amount of seasoning. The side of garlic mashed potatoes was creamy and smooth.

Cool little spot. Margarita had a real kick, reminded me of Merida. Cozy vibe.

The hibachi chef was fun to watch. I really noticed how fresh the vegetables were - crisp and vibrant. The portion sizes are generous, so you definitely won&#39;t leave hungry. A solid spot for a filling meal.

The nachos were pretty good, especially the salsa. Decent spot for a casual drink. The vibe is nice, though it got a bit loud later in the evening.

Leony was super sweet and helpful. The staff overall made the experience really pleasant.

Been coming here for years. The tortillas are always fresh and warm, straight off the griddle. That texture is just right, especially with the fajitas. It&#39;s the main reason I keep coming back.

The brisket baked potato was huge! Honestly, could barely finish it. The steak fingers were a good portion too. For what you pay, you&#39;re definitely getting a lot of food.

Love their Italian ice for a quick treat. Mango flavor is super refreshing. Tried it with the vanilla custard, a nice combo. Perfect for a hot day.
