Our "CottonPatch USIE" -
 Love You Baby -

My Wife and I decided to go to Cotton Patch for Dinner near us because I saw an email that said they have Dinner Specials running. We both have been busy all day long with our new phones - trying to get them switched over from one carrier to another is not a simple task - they both work but under a temporary number - anyway, back to the food. We arrived at Cotton Patch and their are a number of vehicles in the parking lot, well, okay, Trucks, because this is West Texas and Everyone has a Pick-Up Truck of some kind - and so do we - and that's what we took - 'Bret' - our Maverick. Anyway (once again) - we were greeted by the Hostess and shown to a booth. Veronica is our Server and we looked over the menu trying to decide what to get. They do have a 'Daily Special' running and todays is their 'Blackened Tilapia' for $9.99. They also have their "$12 Classics" with a list of Dinners for you to choose from. Time to order and my Wife is going with one of their Regular Salads; "Strawberry Pecan Salad"; Spring Mix Greens, Fresh Sliced Strawberries, Candied Pecans & Bleu Cheese Crumbles, with Raspberry Walnut Vinaigrette. Wife does not want the Bleu Cheese Crumbles. I am ordering from their "$12 Classics"; the "Cheeseburger"; Angus Beef Patty, topped with Fresh Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion, Pickles & House Spread between a Golden Potato Bun, with Cheddar Cheese (choice). Comes with 2-Sides, chose Garlic Mashed Potatoes with Cream Gravy and Green Beans. Orders are in and Veronica brought over a basket of their Fresh Rolls with butter. We enjoyed those while we waited for our food - and it didn't take long considering how busy they are. My Wife's Salad looks really good and is a Nice Presentation in a Very Deep Bowl - lots of goodies in there. She Loved it all - the Chicken was Very Tastylicious and the Strawberries are Fresh & Sweet - and those Candied Pecans are always SweetlyCrunchylicious. It took her a while but she did eat all of her Salad. My Cheeseburger is kind of on the small size, not near what one would think a Cheeseburger would be - but it does look good - and it was. The Patty is really tasty and the Cheese is nice-n-gooey. Really happy that it came with 2-sides because those Garlic Mashed Potatoes with that Creamy Gravy was some really good stuff. I LOVE It when they leave on the Potato Skin and they do here. The Green Beans are Fresh and cooked right but are somewhat bland in taste - seems to be missing some onion or bacon bits - but I ate'em all because Green-Is-Good for you. Overall it was just enough for the both of us. Veronica was Awesome throughout our stay here and earned the "Dollar-Bow-Tie" Award for going 'Above & Beyond the Norm' - and she loved it. Cotton Patch Restaurants has always been a pretty good place to get some good cookin' for a reasonable price. Check one out near you. On the way back to the house, my Lovely Wife and I enjoyed another Beautiful Early West Texas Evening. Love You Baby, Bunches & GoingOutMunches.

Funnel Cake Fries with Marshmallow Fluff Dip

As a city girl who's moved into this cute small town, I was excited to learn that Cotton Patch has great food and a family feel like Cracker Barrel (minus the toys/storefront). Start your visit with delicious, buttery, soft rolls as you're greeted by your server. So many home-cooked-feeling meals to choose from! I went with some of my favorites for my first experience - and they didn't disappoint. As a date night treat, we tried the Funnel Cake Fries as an appetizer before moving on to our main course. Everything was cooked perfectly and served efficiently. Before we left, we ordered rolls to go! We liked it so much, we brought our visiting family the next week. Definitely adding this to our restaurant rotation list.

Had never been here before till now. Cool place with great service, fast service. Big menu to pick from. based on this experience alone, it was okay. My plate was a little less than impressive. Turkey was done perfectly, tender, flavorful. Sadly just 2 slices all ya get. The stuffing was average, the gravy was very thick and bland. cranberry sauce was likely canned stuff. The sides I picked were on point. Wifes beef tips and gravy were very good. My kiddos fish was also very tasty and he finished it all. 10% military discounts are available so our 3 meals and drinks were only $46 with tax so not bad. I still gotta try some other dishes next time to get more insight to their plates and menu.

Country Fried Chicken Dinner

Voyaging down Hwy 87 from West Texas hunger stroke and we decided to make a stop at good ol Cotton Patch Cafe! On a Black Friday afternoon the cafe was rather slow and we were seated quickly. Our waitress was very attentive, made frequent stops and assured our needs were met only a star drops due to the lack of their fluffy and buttery rolls. The food was great started it off with mozzarella sticks for our app and ended with their famous chicken fried chicken plate with macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes and gravy. Overall food was good and service was exceptional until next time Cotton Patch Cafe San Angelo!

Below average food, and too much of it is fried. Both times I've gone we had to wait forever for food, and then it wasn't really that good.

My wife always says you can judge a new place by their chicken fried steak. I took her word and I can say it was great.

Thank God for restaurants like Dunbar.​

I will tell you right now, I was not expecting to give this place 5 stars. I ate Thanksgiving lunch…read morehere probably... 20 years ago when I lived in San Angelo. We were recently in town visiting family and wanted to eat before we left town to go home. The well-known place we used to eat now closes on Sundays. That's their loss because we've declared the Dun Bar our new Sunday lunch spot when we're in town. Thelma was our server and she was just delightful. This is probably the most hole in the wall place I've ever given full stars. Don't get me wrong, I love a hole in the wall, but sometimes the food in a hole in the wall is a little boring. Like this food, it was so simple, chicken fried steaks, grilled chicken breast, a Thanksgiving lunch on Sundays, side salads, humble sides... but it's all so absolutely ridiculously GOOD. We started with the large plate of onion rings (which is $7.50, btw, you won't find that anywhere else) and my sister lost her mind about them. lol For our entrees we had two chicken fried steak plates (different sides) and a grilled chicken plate. The gravy is served on the side, family style, and it was probably one of the best gravys I've ever had. It's not just flour and water, it tasted more complex like it had broth in it as well. Somehow with the modest price of these very flavorful dishes, they still give you free dessert. Very generous. I typically hate carrot cake, but this cake was moist and really good. It was almost like a spice cake, very well done. Do not sleep on this place. The surroundings are run down, the motel behind it has seen better days, but the food is legit and the kindness can't be beat. If you go on a Sunday, ask for Thelma and tell her the girls from Fort Worth say hi.

Went to Jason's Deli on Knickerbocker Rd. I've been to J.D. in other cities, but not in San Angelo…read more Decided on the Grilled Cheese Sandwich and Tomato Basil Soup. Arrived at Jason's, and there was a line more than halfway to the door. This might take a while because I noticed only one person taking orders. Before you know it, I was next to order. Then I saw a hand wave above the cash register, motioning me to come over. That's when I noticed they have three areas open to take orders, and two of them are, let's say, not very tall people. Their heads were lower than the cash registers. You could not see them, but that line disappeared really quickly. Anyway, I placed my order, 100% Whole Grain Wheat Bread Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Soup, and a Diet Dr Pepper drink. The lady replied back my order and asked what kind of soup, Tomato Basil or Bla,Bla,Ble,Ble,Blaw. I asked her to repeat that, and she said, Tomato Basil or Bla,Bla,Ble,Ble,Blaw. I said, I'm sorry, could you repeat the last part. She said, Bla,Bla,Ble,Ble,Blaw. I then said, Tomato Basil Soup will be fine. For the life of me, I could not understand what kind of soup Bla,Bla,Ble,Ble,Blaw was, and I don't know if that sounded good or not. But I do know Tomato Basil Soup is a good soup. FYI, the 100% Whole Grain Wheat Bread has two-slices of Cheddar Cheese and one-slice (in the center) of Muenster Cheese. That really sounds gooeygoodness to me. I grabbed my cup and number, filled my cup with Diet Dr Pepper (the Texas Coke), and located a table. This place is really busy with only a couple tables open. When one table is available, their Table-Cleaner is right there preparing it for the next customer. That is Service at its Best. Nicely done Jason. In a couple of minutes, my order arrived, and the Tomato Basil Soup was served in a Kettle Bowl style with Chunks of Tomato throughout and melted Chedder Cheese on top. Not what the picture showed on-line, and that looked delicious, and this looks better - Love It. However, the Grilled Cheese Sandwich is cut into small quarters. This 100% Whole Grain Wheat Bread is one-tiny-slice, but nicely toasted. Peeked inside for the cheese, and it's only a small dab of yellow and white. This is not a "Brylcreem Commercial" where a 'Little Dab Will Do Ya', it's a Grilled Cheese Sandwich, and I'm looking for the Cheese. I do not see how this could be three-slices, which doesn't even go to the edge of the toast. The Tomato Basil Soup is absolutely Delicious and Flavorful, and loving those chunks of tomatoes. Love That Soup. The 100% Whole Grain Wheat Bread is toasted perfectly and has the perfect crunch in every bite. Once in a while, you could actually taste a little cheese, but not often. The only thing I was disappointed in was their Grilled Cheese Sandwich with very little cheese. Other than that, I enjoyed my lunch and loved their Tomato Basil Soup. When I left, there was still a line, and it was moving pretty fast. Now I'm wondering what that Bla,Bla,Ble,Ble,Blaw soup was and how it tasted. I didn't see it on the menu board, so it must be something new they are trying. Maybe next time I will order it, but with something other than the Grilled Cheese Sandwich. Check out a Jason's Deli near you, and if they have it, try the Bla,Bla,Ble,Ble,Blaw soup and let me know how it taste.
