    Country 3. Big TX Chicken Fried Chicken with 3 Eggs
    Samettria B.

    Really good food. This is the first place to get my eggs right. Of course you will have to add salt and pepper to your eggs and hash browns but they are really good and you can taste the real butter. Good breakfast place. The jalapeno sausage gravy is pretty good but you can't go to wrong with breakfast. They are really nice people and they have all kinds of homemade jams. Kid friendly family oriented place. Makes you feel like your at home.

    Cute place...let's start there. Ambiance very quaint, inviting...not from this side of town but definitely looks like a favorite for many peeps on that side. Service seemed a little slow, it took awhile to get our food and we only had two dishes one of which was a kids meal. Waiter was friendly and staff seemed friendly. They charged $6 for chips and salsa so just fyi...salsa was very good though, but come on...not $6 good. Kids meal was basic, $8 seemed like alot for what they got but was okay. The chorizo plate was very good, chorizo was tasty, beans were good. Bacon was nice and crisp as requested. Pretty basic breakfast. Served with tortillas....guys they weren't homemade which was a bummer, but they did their job. Coffee was good, and rootbeer float was good. This restaurant definitely has potential with some minor tweaks, but for $48 after tip, we most likely won't be returning. Just too many other places that don't charge for chips and salsa, have homemade tortillas (just my preference don't come after me), and get better quality food for your money.

    Let me tell y'all something. This here restaurant is absolutely amazing. The food was great. The service was great. The atmosphere was great. The only downside was them being so far from where we stay in Houston, which still isn't too far. Maybe 30 minutes away

    Dropped in for a quick break, and to try the sausage gravy and biscuit. Also I appreciate the typical Texan diner decor and atmosphere: CW music and lots of western cashe. Biscuits were Ho-hum. Not very fluffy. Gravy was plentiful and strangely, not cooked with sausage but separately? This is weird.

    Large menú so many options including for kid's meals!!! I love thise

    I visited here after hearing they are supposed to be pretty good. I sat in the bar area since I…read morewas dining alone. This is an older building, but I'm not sure how long they have been here. In summary, I was not really impressed with my meal, but this is a super casual place and the prices are right. I started off with their house small frozen margarita. If you just need a basic one, this will do. It's nothing fancy. For comparison, their fresh margaritas start at $12 currently. Their salsa is served at room temp and you receive both a green and a red one. The red one was my fav. It was also the spicier of the two. I ordered their beef fajitas for one which is only $20. Let's see how it compared to my favorite in town which is much more expensive. Beef fajitas- these are your basic beef fajitas with store-bought tortillas. The sizzling skillet comes with 2 types of grilled onions, tomato, and grilled bell pepper slices. The beef is tender, I'll give them that, but the quality is low. You receive a lot of Pico de Gallo, not much guacamole, and an avg amount of rice and beans. The grilled onions were not grilled very long at all. I noticed a couple of the slices of beef were not cut against the grain, so they were a bit more chewy. Overall, service was average. They never asked me if I wanted a 2nd margarita until after I sat around for 10 mins and then even asked for the check. By then, its way too late to ask a customer if they want a 2nd drink, I guess that's how low key they are. At the end of the meal my glass of water was nearly empty too, but no server was to be found at the bar. In fact, they didn't really even man the bar most of the time with the 4 customers sitting there, including me.

The previous dining experience before this one, was not good, but I didn't post about it. I was really hoping it was a one time issue. The chips were so greasy you feared eating them for getting sick. The manager acknowledged how bad they were, and said they had an issue with the supplier. He said rather than not serve chips, they decided to serve them. They were inedible. Also the once delicious salsa has gotten watery. After my food arrived, I sent the taco back because the shell was the same as the chips. So greasy and the taco poured grease out of it. This last trip, the chips were better, but still very greasy and tasteless. The nachos I had would be about the quality of Chilis. No refried beans. Most restaurants layer refried beans, cheese and meat for SIX almost $20 dollar nachos. The chicken fajita meat was dry, and the beef was not good. A few bites were not edible. Another note- The once delicious tortillas were super thick and gummy. The manager came by and I explained everything to him . He didn't have much to say and didn't really seem concerned... other than taking off $2 of the bill. Which I do appreciate! It's still a beautiful restaurant, just sadly the food has changed too much for it be a top place for me.

I don't come often because parking is always a nightmare, and tonight was no exception. When I showed them the app, the staff seemed confused on how to do a redemption. So they had to call the owner for help. The owner apparently told them not to honor the redemption because they were in the process of switching rewards program platforms, and what used to be a 50‑point reward was going to be a 300‑point reward. The staff said my points would transfer eventually, but I only will have 63 -- not enough under the new system. Hey, I'm no entrepreneur. But I am a customer who eats out all the time. And to me this is a textbook example of an owner who doesn't get customer service. I drove all the way there, dealt with the parking, and came specifically to redeem a reward that still showed as valid in their app. It's not my fault their system hadn't switched over yet. These cakeball and truffle treats are only the size of a donut hole. It's not one of their higher end desserts. The obvious right move would've been to honor the reward and give the customer the treat. But nope. They chose the stingy route instead. And with that one decision, they lost another customer. Congrats and enjoy your cakeballs.
