    Chips and salsa
    Jamie S.

    Well this location came in clutch during a dance competition. It had been a long day and everything around the convention center was packed, and we showed up and were pleasantly surprised. We got a booth right away. Our server took fantastic care of us. Our food was hot, fresh and tasty. If we are at in the area at a competition or at the outlets we will definitely be back.

    Monte Cristo

    Located by the outlets. Despite being pretty busy, we were seated right away. It was near the end of the lunch shift so there were maybe two empty tables with dishes but overall establishment was considered clean. Service was good, our waiter was very attentive. When I found a piece of hair on my monte cristo sandwich, the manager immediately removed the dish from our bill and came by to apologize. Overall a good experience despite the hair in my food.

    Strawberry lemonade

    It was really good I ate the queso fries it was really good also ate a little bit of it with ranch chefs kiss would go back if I had nowhere else to eat

    Strawberry lemonade was so refreshing! Buffalo chicken wrapper with fries was just ok. The entire wrap fell apart because it was too hard of a tortilla. I ended up just eating the chicken on its own, which was spicy (which I like)

    Their lightly frosted, buttery croissants!

    The food was great, for a great price! Better than across the freeway aCracker Barrell, and for a much better price.

    Grilled Chicken Alfredo

    Our bartender was great! I wish we got her name but she kept us entertained during the end of her bar shift. Cheddars is always a classic and you can't go wrong with the queso or croissants. Quick service and good food.

    Wrong burger

    Staff were friendly , pretty slow. Only 2 other People inside. Drive thru had a few cars. Ordered a Double Big Bacon Classic. Don't think that's what I got. Should have checked there but was just ready to leave

    Beware of the "5 Star" Reviews…read more Offering free drinks/apps in exchange. I do want to point out that I never submit reviews. Went in and sat down quick, yet the food took over an hour. We sat, ordered drinks along with the food when we got there. After we realized the people around us that arrived significantly later were already paying to leave, we got up to ask about our food as it had easily been 40 minutes. Got told it would be a couple of minutes, gave us waters. Mind you, we are now over an hour into waiting. Food started to roll out and we kept getting offered free chips in the meantime- sorry but this solves the situation how? We are now going to be full of chips and not food. 2 of the meals still took an extra 20 min after the majority rolled out and of course, my parents' food came out COLD. What were we waiting for on this exactly? A lady, who I am assuming is the manager, came to apologize, told us she would remove the 2 items from the ticket. We were understanding. However, she then admitted they dropped the ball- this is where this place really lost us. She stated that they tried to reheat the plates and just pass it as "fresh." Thank you for finally being honest but this truly just gave me a bad image of management. I felt like they just threw the team under the bus. We asked for the check and when we asked if she did comp the 2 plates, she gave an attitude responding, "I did, I fixed it" and then proceeded to send someone else to check us out. That is not how you manage or take ownership. As a manager myself, you take care of the person full on through to try and turn the situation around. Had she done that or had the staff communicated that they messed up when we had initially asked, we would've been completely fine instead all that happened here. We were in there for about 2.5 hours. Unfortunately left disappointed due to the good reviews we initially saw.

You'll experience the inviting ambience we've enjoyed the minute you step along the courtyard then encounter welcoming and accommodating hostesses. You'll discover the same unique, rich, warm interior we discovered; an elegance to be appreciated, which bows to unpretentious Texas hospitality. You'll again be greeted by a helpful, charming, engaging waitperson. Our latest waitperson was Sami, a delightful young lady who tended to us as if we were her only table. You'll discover a menu with great selections with Chef Monty's personal flair and reasonably priced. If he can free himself, you'll most likely meet Monty, both owner and chef. It's hard to imagine a nicer guy unless it's Kyle, the manager! Palmer's atmosphere is suitable for casual conversation over a meal, for Sunday brunch, an anniversary, or a romantic date night. One of our favorite activities is evenings in the courtyard with wine and appetizers. Also, it's difficult to resist their desserts, by the way! Reservations are accepted on a limited basis, but "call ahead" is always available. There, I've said it. Against my better judgement, you now what I you know. The rest is up to you.

    Trying to decide if this was just at or under A-ok; food was good…read more About 8pm on a Monday I really wanted a burger with a fried egg on top. Didn't have patience for Crafthouse's service pace or downtown parking. Chef here's been flexible and fun, and I knew there was a spacious lot and likely a quiet atmosphere. When I arrived, the bar seating was nearly full plus a table of perhaps five. Country music played, I took a booth in the back. My favorite steak is gone from their re-done menu, and it was too busy for Chef to pop out and chat, if he still works here. They were out of real eggs, so I got a cheeseburger and a side of broccoli. When the waitress asked if I wanted bacon since I couldn't have the egg, I said sure. My Lynchburg lemonade was heavy on the lemon but good with the liquor, and that burger was undisputedly enormous. The broccoli was in good condition and generous. A request for soda was forgotten but rectified. Different employee brought the bill, which (1) did not reflect my 10% discount for check-in (I'd showed my waitress; she hit the button on my phone to accept it) and (2) while the menu says add bacon for $.50, I was charged $2.50. It was a big meal and I thought they might be a little shorthanded, so I didn't feel it worth the fuss. Just saying you should check your tab. Cheeseburger (add bacon) with side of broccoli, one Coke and an alcoholic drink for $26 before tip.

    Many options for breakfast, they continue to restock so don't worry about it running out!read more

    This is a review of one particular sandwich, namely their veggie burger (which I got with sweet…read morepotato fries). So all of Hat Creek's meat options are delicious, and it turns out that... their veggie burger is as well! The patty is a black bean and quinoa patty with the normal burger fixings of lettuce, tomato, onion, and mustard. It doesn't try to match the flavor of a beef or turkey burger, but rather lets the beans and quinoa do the incredibly tasty work of making it good. This does mean that the patty doesn't hold the texture quite as well as a beef patty does... but who cares, since it's *delicious.* The sweet potato fries were also lovely, crisp, and just sweet enough that they went perfectly with the burger. Service was prompt and friendly and the only nitpick is that they forgot to include ketchup, but given how good the fries were on their own, that's *fine.* All told, wonderful food and a great vegetarian option..

    When Mr R got his diagnosis and I contacted a few of his favorite local places about a couple…read moreingredients, Hat Creek was the fastest and friendliest reply I got which greatly endears them to me. 4pm on a weekday we hit their drive through for his black bean/quinoa burger, my pretzel jack, a soda, and some sweet potato fries to share. That combo and a sandwich was under $30 after tax, which felt great for the indulgent, tasty meal that we enjoyed. Needed a recovery nap, it was great. Single error was not including the ketchup he requested, which I share only in the interest of transparency. I mean, in my house ketchup is to make mid to poor fries tolerable and Hat Creek's sweet potato fries are great. Their good service and quality groceries continue, so will our visits will too.
