Fast and friendly service. Pretty affordable pricing, I really the chicken bites - good deal and filling! They have a nice patio seating area. Multiple table/dining options including booths. Bar area as well! Parking onsite. We were a bit confused when ordering drinks. We wanted to order our food and then sit at the bar to order a round or two of drinks. We were told we had to order drinks at the cash register - which just made the entire drink situation a bit difficult because we couldn't tell what beers/wines were available. Besides that, we enjoyed The Cookshack and will go back!

Gave to my sister who rated 9 out of 10 would recommend. Cornbread was like hard day old bread and went into the trash! Bbq platter: BIL loved his plate! Said potato salad was meh but all else good! Hotlinks, ribs, and beans! Sister got fried chicken and added mac&cheese along with yams! Chicken was fresh but not seasoned much! Mac&cheese good for diner menu option, and yams were okay she said! Greasy spoon Mac is better IMO but Granny's oxtails the best I've had here in H-town! Although spicy/hot food is not my favorite I did enjoy them If the cornbread were softer & sweeter I think the rating would be 4! Would I go back? Hmm! Yea for the tails of course! I saw they have catfish & black eyed peas so I may try those next time as well! Overall 3.5 but can't do half stars By default I left it at 4

The chicken is crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and that jalapeño gravy takes it to another level. The mashed potatoes are creamy, the green beans are always good, and everything together is the definition of comfort food. I've had this meal more than once, and the consistency is what keeps me coming back. If you're visiting Mia's Table and don't know what to order, the Chicken Fried Chicken with jalapeño gravy is definitely one of my recommendations!

The hostess opened the front door right away to show us inside. My wife ordered the blackened flounder with two sides, southern green beans and the sweet potato cakes, because the server recommended it. I also went with the server's suggestions and ordered the Wagyu chicken fried steak with bacon jalapeno mac-n-cheese and jalapeno cream corn. It might not have been the healthiest choice, but I wanted to enjoy the evening. lol My wife really liked the blackened flounder. The green beans were a bit more overcooked than she liked, though. The chicken fried steak was outstanding and very tender. I liked that the delicious gravy came on the side so the steak stayed crispy. The sides were also outstanding. The GM (Glen, sp?) came to say hello because it was our first time there. I told him everything was wonderful and that we would come back. When we left, the hostess opened the door for us again without missing a beat. Great food, great service, and a lively atmosphere.

For the price, I expected something significantly better. Charging $14 for a slice of cake that tastes this average feels like a complete ripoff. I left disappointed and frustrated with the purchase and will not be returning. To make matters worse, they don't even accept tap-to-pay or Apple Pay. In 2026, that's an unnecessary inconvenience and shows a lack of investment in the customer experience. Between the overpriced, mediocre dessert and the outdated payment options, this was a thoroughly disappointing visit.

The service was slow but efficient and the tenders were bland and crispy. The cream gravy was the only thing that saved the tenders. The mashed potatoes and gravy were good but the roll was delicious. The lowest part of the meal was the sweet tea which tasted terrible. The placed looked quite rundown from the outside.

I miss what Hartz used to be. This review is for this location only…read more I visited on a Sunday around 5/6 pm. The lights were off so we were unsure if they were even open. When we walk in, the staff behind the counter flip the lights on just for the front counter and ask what would we like to order. She explains she is saving energy. We order a couple meals with fried chicken to go. While waiting, I fill my drinks and the floor is sticky everywhere I step. The whole place looks like it is on the verge of falling apart. Looking up the air vents are caked with dark stuff and there are stains and pieces hanging. Dirt is packed into every nook and cranny in the corners. We get our chicken and head home. Once home it is cold and somewhat stale. At least the rolls were still hot. The most concerning thing is the buffet was in operation the day we went. While we didn't get anything from it, it was a sad presentation. No one was in the place and that side of the dining room was dark as the counter lady did not flip that light switch. The chicken was dark brown...almost burned looking. I am guessing from being reheated in the fryers. Who know how much of that is stored for reuse the next day. Overall, I have visited this location in the past (actually over 15+ years). It has steadily had zero reinvestment to the building or grounds as it looks more and more soiled and worn out each time. I will likely not return as this was kind of the breaking point for me. It was never a new or super clean place but whatever my line is, it has crossed beyond that for me. It is just dirty and worn out inside and out. I fear the current operator is running on razor thin margins and I am sure struggles with inflation. I wish them well but the place just does not provide quality or the cleanliness I seek in a restaurant.

Its quite interesting to know that she caters completely to a gluten free diet. Her meals have healthy portions of meat and vegetables and she gets it all the way from New Zealand! My fellow meat eaters were very impressed by that information. Her restaurant is pretty cute too. She claims that she is the only restaurant that serves completely gluten free food at least in that part of the town, but she is humble, she quickly adds, as far as her knowledge goes. You know with restaurants popping up willy nilly if someone else might have started something.... Her specialty is the zucchini lasagna.

The worker said they don't have plans where you can order a set amount weekly and save a few bucks…read more People just come and pick off the shelves from what is available that week. The food isn't arranged by diet type ( eg, keto friendly, gluten free, etc.). So you just gotta browse the ingredients of what you see. There's a small eating place inside. Food lasts 6-7 days past date. Most meals seemed to hover around the $15 mark. We decided not to buy anything at this point as I was thinking I could probably just make it myself at that price point. But if you want something quick and easy this might work well.
