Tenders, fried pickles, a roll, and sweat tea of course!

I have always loved Chicken E! The OG Chicken E is from where I grew up. So it always reminds me of better days of ol'! The wife and I went to eat in the dining room at 9:15 on a Saturday. Dining room says open until 9:30. An employee had walked out during his shift earlier that day so my wife and I offered to just get our food to-go. The manager on duty, Lisa Behrens, was so nice and helpful! She made our dining experience a great one!

The only place I would go locally to get fast food chicken. Always fresh when I've been, and always good service.

Amazing food! My family stopped in after a competition at the local shooting complex. We had a…read morelarge group and service was great. Grape Juice is a must for when we are back in town.

He was so friendly and easygoing, but we knew he was putting in work! Tables inside and out and our food still came out quickly, and my water was always full! We started off with the gluten free Hong Kong lettuce wraps, and I almost smacked everyone's hands as they grabbed for another one! The antelope was so tender, not dry, and the sauce wonderfully balanced the side of slaw and savory ground antelope. Delicious! Hubby got the Green Goat Sliders, kiddo got the kid's pulled pork sandwich, and I got the gluten free Crispy Chicken Sammie on a GF bun. Everything was delicious! They undoubtedly know how to cook their meat perfectly! Sliders were very good, and my son devoured that pulled pork sandwich in minutes. The kid's sandwich was the same size as mine! The sliders looked great - just cooked so well, and the chimichurri was delicious (per my husband). While I was given the wrong sandwich, I did not care one single bit! A truly honest mistake, but if I even thought of complaining I'd hope someone would kick me right out, because everything about this meal was great! The right sandwich was so good. I love the slaw and Ruben dressing with the slightly crispy GF fried chicken patty. I like that the fried chicken wasn't heavily breaded - it kept it lighter and just enough of a crisp! I got the Greek salad as my side and WOW. I could eat that salad any day. I don't even like olives, but that salad needed them, and all of it was delicious. I loved the hummus on the bottom which was a great texture and added more substance to the salad. I could eat that salad all day every day. I don't know what feta they used, but it was soft and delightfully salty. So good. I can only imagine how good it is on their Brussel Sprouts which are also gluten free! I did snag one of my kiddo's fries which are also gluten free, and I love it when fries and crispy and brown and not overly seasoned, which these were. Tender inside and crispy outside, nice and browned and almost shoestring. Very, very good! With the great service, the lovely outdoor seating, and such delicious food, I would not hesitate driving back here to come eat again! I only wish the restaurant was a smidge bigger so more people at once could enjoy this fantastic establishment!

It's surrounded and in between little businesses like a metal craft place and computer repair but it's adorable face stands out! It's entrance has little pottery and succulents that are inviting. Once you enter, the decor is tasteful and well thought of. Even their bathrooms are inviting, clean, and decorative. Upon first arriving, I was taken aback when the owner, Norma, immediately asked if I was from The Bulletin to do a review. I told her I was not and then she let me know they had given her a bad review. Our waiter, Keoni, was great! He was equal parts welcoming, friendly, and attentive. I had their Las Migas and my hubby had their Pigs in the Mud. We both enjoyed our dishes. The breakfast potatoes are some of the best we have tasted! Slightly crunchy, and full of flavor! My dish was served with a homemade flour tortilla! I really enjoyed every bite! Coffee was served with warm cream & made a great impression on us (details matter!) At the end of our meal, Norma did apologize for the way she had come across and I was thankful that she had reflected and made it right with her customer (me!) Overall, it was a very enjoyable meal and ended very well. For all of these reasons, I had zero reason to not give them the well-deserved 5-star review! Keep up the great work, Copper Pot!

My son and I love to try a new restaurant every time we go into Kerrville. Today we tried…read moreFrancisco's in the historic downtown. Loved the old building and numerous paintings on the wall! We were attended to promptly and after reviewing the menu we placed our order. I ordered the Caesar salad with chicken and son ordered a ham and cheese sandwich. We watched some regulars come in and hug their favorite wait staffers (which seemed to be everyone on duty!) and check on other patrons to say hi before settling back at their table. The vibe was people on business lunches, retirees meeting up with friends, and a few tourists. I really loved the "homeyness" of watching everyone being familiar with the patrons and the overall friendly vibe. Our order arrived and I loved that the lettuce was cut into small bite size pieces rather than larger leaves which always look like someone grazing when eating off the fork. The bite size pieces were a nice surprise and also loved the grapefruit slice! I love grapefruit so this was so nice to see!! First bite was great! I tasted a hint of mustard in the dressing - not for sure if there was but it was a tangy change of the usual Caesar dressing. I liked it! I had as much as I could and my growing son finished it off for me after he finished his sandwich. I asked him about his sandwich and he said it was the best ham and cheese he's ever had! Hey...I said...what about mine!!?? Oh well. He loved the bread and the Swiss cheese. Different flavors for him and he approved. We didn't do dessert since we had shopping to do. We paid the bill and readied to leave. I noted to the lady group sitting next to us about one of the ladies purse. It was super cute and not the standard luxury fare. They were so friendly to my remark I swore if I commented more they would have told me to join them! Super friendly people, restaurant, and great food!! We'll have to try it again sometime after we try all the other restaurants in town!! You won't be disappointed if you try this place!!

We had lunch at Francisco's in historic downtown Kerrville the last time we were exploring the…read moretown, and had a great visit. The building itself was built in 1890 initially as a mercantile store, then cycled through a number of other businesses over the years until settling on Francisco's. Besides indoor tables, they also have a number of seating options outside on the sidewalk if the weather is agreeable. There isn't a river view, but it could be good people watching on a busy tourist day. The interior is a single space with high ceilings and tons of art on the walls. It's small but feels intimate not tight. I wouldn't call the place fine dining or upscale, but it's a step above casual. We were there for lunch and I felt fine in shorts and flip flops, but wonder if dinner is a different story. The lunch menu was mostly simple cafe sandwiches, salads, soups, and a couple different nachos/chips and salsa/chips and queso appetizer options. The Mexican food were primarily the daily specials the waitress rattled off for us. Speaking of, service was very friendly prompt, and helpful. Our waitress did a great job helping us figure out what we were in the mood for, offered substitutions and chatted us up on where we were from and what we were doing around town. Great staff. Overall if you're in town and looking for a sit down meal keep Francisco's on your list of options.
