    Fried Catfish

    Cotton Patch Greenville - Tasty as Always Out party of five had a good lunch here on a Tuesday afternoon. Being right on the freeway, there were plenty of customers already in the restaurant. We were seated quickly and served by a friendly wait staff. The food came out piping hot and very tasty. The only negative was that there were no hush puppies available for our fried catfish dinner. Our dinners came out with extra fries and no hush puppies. When we asked the waiter, he said they were out of hush puppies, so they decided to give us a double-order of fries. It would have been nice to give us the option of a different side or maybe a dessert.

    Excellent food and great service! Fluffy soft rolls, tasty homemade meatloaf, mashed potatoes and cornbread. Also very good queso and chips! Very reasonable prices, too! We love the Cotton Patch and go anytime we are near one!

    Vegetable plate. The squash casserole is divine. I love all of these goodies.

    Yummy! I love Sunday Turkey and dressing! Thank you Cotton Patch! Everyone was happy with their food today. Waitstaff was pleasant... May be back to a full staff. And everybody seemed cheerful. Restrooms and eating area was clean as far as we could tell. We will be back. Need to try that hummingbird cake.

    I really like this Cotton Patch, this one has to be my favorite location over all of the once I've been to over the DFW area. The service was really good to us, the food was good, and the overall look way out does all of the other restaurants I've been to.

    Our server was amazing. She was super friendly and attentive. I ordered the chicken fried chicken and it was super hot and fresh and the portions were large. The mashed potato's were dry and nothing to rave about, but the broccoli cheese casserole was decent. The rolls, and fried mushrooms were delicious and the brisket queso was just average. Overall, I'm glad we stopped by. You can't beat the bang for your buck as you're passing by.

    The Cotton Patch is never a "great" experience, but this time it was horrible. The chips were stale, steak was under cooked and the rolls never rose. At noon shortly after they opened, they were out of chicken tenders. The main reason I am posting this review is because of the STEAK KNIFE being used as a door stopper!!!

You can't go wrong with all you can eat breakfast! Most of it included eggs, bacon, sausage, monte cristos, and more! One thing I found extraordinarily great about this place is they told me everything is made in house. Which is hands down a plus and make everything much more tasty. Starting with the lunch food, I think they have one of the best burgers around the area! It's very good! They have a burger called the salamander burger, which is double meat, double cheese, and green chilis. It's not on the menu, but if you ask for it they know exactly what you are referring to. If you order the standard burger on the menu it's only one patty. We went on a Saturday morning and surprisingly there weren't very many people there. My only note about this, is the service was very slow. Great help, just slow.

    Taqueria review: I'm…read moregonna let you know, first of all, that I'm deeply obsessed with tacos. I'm not talking about American tacos, which are more akin to cheeseburgers with chili powder on a flour tortilla, but the Mexican variety, which are on corn tortillas with onion and cilantro. I'm not necessarily reviewing this restaurant as a complete restaurant experience but just on its ability to make amazing tacos, specifically Tacos al Pastor, a variety of spicy pork taco. Like any good Taqueria, this place shares space with a gas station. This is usually the mark of authenticity. As most places do around here, you receive your tacos with two warm corn tortillas piece. The meat is as it should be, not too wet not too dry, and just tender enough to chew through easily. The amount of cilantro and onion are perfect, and the salsa Verde comes in a plastic baggie that I prefer to bite the bottom off of so I can squeeze it out like a pastry bag. The amount of spice from the pork and the salsa are just right and the flavors all work together well. Limes are standard as they should be and really add to the flavor. These are definitely the best Tacos al Pastor in Greenville, and if you can go on Mondays or Thursdays, each taco is only $.99. otherwise they are only $1.59 apiece. I got six of them for $10 on a Friday and $6 on a Monday. One of the best things about this restaurant, which may annoy some, is the quaint cultural differences between taquerias and most fast food restaurants. Whereas most taquerias are cash only establishments, this one accepts credit card; however, you have to go to the gas station side to pay and then bring your receipt back to the cooks. Believe it or not this is somewhat standard and, to me, quite delightful as an experience. I will be coming back a lot and sitting in the booth waiting for my six tacos to go. If you have never tried Mexican tacos before, give them a try; and if you get your first Mexican tacos here, you may never want to eat American-style again.

At first, I was a little hesitant because the menu is fairly small, but after my meal, I can see why. Every dish we ordered was absolutely a 10/10.

I do want to start with the positives. Our waiter was fantastic. He was very attentive, explained the menu thoroughly, and provided excellent service. The food also came out incredibly fast and piping hot, which is becoming rare these days. We started with the cornbread, and it was easily a 10/10. It was worth every bit of the $12. We ordered the fried chicken, greens, shrimp fried rice, biscuits, and hot water cornbread. The fried chicken was crispy and tender, but it lacked seasoning. I'd give it a 7/10. They served it with a house hot sauce, but surprisingly it had no heat and almost no flavor. I even asked the person I was dining with if they tasted anything because it was like pouring sauce on the chicken without changing the flavor at all. The greens were just okay on their own, but once we added the vinegar they became amazing. That made me wonder why the vinegar isn't incorporated into the greens from the start. The hot water cornbread had virtually no flavor. The shrimp fried rice was cooked really well, but it had an unexpected Caribbean-style seasoning that threw me off. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't what I was expecting, and it made it hard to fully enjoy. The biscuits were probably the biggest disappointment. They were dry and hard. One thing I also noticed is that, for a family style restaurant where you're encouraged to order several dishes to share, the tables feel too small. Once all the food arrived, there wasn't much room left, and even packing up our leftovers was awkward because of the lack of space. One standout that deserves recognition was the iced tea. It had what tasted like a subtle hint of mint and was incredibly refreshing. Easy 10/10. From the cuts of chicken we received, it appears they break down and fry whole chickens, which is perfectly fine. However, at $56 for a fried chicken that lacked seasoning, I found the price hard to justify. Maybe the cooking method or oil contributes to the cost, but I expected much more flavor for that price. Overall, I'd rate my experience a 7.5/10. Would I come back? Yes. I'd be willing to give Roots another chance and try something different from the menu. But when I hear Southern food, I expect bold seasoning and comforting flavors, and that's the one area where this meal really fell short.
