The restaurant sits in a strip mall which can be a bad thing but we came on in. The waitress was very helpful with our orders. I ordered the medium pizza with half supreme and half Philly Cheesesteak, which the waitress suggested and I'm glad she did so that I can try two different types of pizza but wasn't impressed but it was good. The crust on the pizzas was superb but the toppings aren't as good. The Philly Cheesesteak side was so so. I was surprised they used a marinara sauce instead of an Alfredo type sauce. My wife ordered the margarita pizza and she enjoyed it. Atmosphere was perfect. First thing we tried was the bread, wasn't a big fan. It lacked any real flavor but the texture and crunch were great. All in all it's a solid 4 out of 5.

What an AWFUL experience! We ate here many times years ago and it was delicious and very friendly…read moreemployees. So we were excited to eat there last night on our drive in from Houston. I looked online to make sure they would be open and it showed closing at 9:00 pm. We arrived at 8:25 and a young waitress brought our drinks. Then someone came out to take our order and she was RUDE AS HELL!!! She informed us the grill closed in 2 minutes and then told us we needed to hurry or they wouldn't be able to make it. Every question we asked her, she was short and rude. I asked her the difference in the size of a large or a small and she told me the oz difference instead of showing me the portion size. If she's the manager or owner, shame on her! We came from Houston with plans to eat at this restaurant specifically. VERY disappointing but now I see new owners bought it a few years ago so it makes sense why we were treated so horribly. If that woman is a manager, she surely doesn't need to be! It's a shack in the country that is still expensive as we spent $75 dollars! No one deserves to be treated like this ever. And if you're closing the grill at 8:30 don't keep the restaurant open until 9:00! It makes no sense to allow people to come inside to be told the grill is closing.

Waited nearly 10 minutes for a young lady to approach us at the hostess stand. Glad we had a reservation though cuz the folks that had been waiting were still waiting another 15 minutes or so to get a table. We were sat right next to where the food came out which was fine but when making the reservation the gentleman stated he would have a nice table for us (patio). It was rather dark inside but our table was more lit being near the food run. The waitress Tammy was attentive. We were not served the bread w/oil & vinegar that our friends raved about but probably because we order the mozzarella flat bread for app. Hubs got the wild mushroom pasta with blackened chicken & I ordered the arugula spinach salad with berries & pecans & added blackened chicken. The chicken was moist & tasty. The marinara served w/ the flat bread was absolutely delicious! We'll revisit just for the marinara!

My friend was unwavering in her argument that she preferred the brisket sandwich at Woody's…read moreSmokehouse over the brisket sandwich at Bucc-ees. I had to try it and it was as good as reported. (My friends have good taste!) I was immediately taken by the rustic charm of the establishment. To the left of the entrance was an old-fashioned meat counter filled with an assortment of smoked meats (some exotic) and jerkies (is the plural of jerky jerkies?). A few steps in, the counter gave way to a 90° turn followed by a steam tray with barbeque and sides. As I made my way around the establishment I spied the one thing that Bucc-ees is missing. An area to rest my heels while eating... it was small, but inviting. My chopped brisket sandwich came with a free side of beans. I happily retreated to my truck convinced that I'd found the best roadstop barbecue bargain in Texas. Did I mention that the sandwich only cost ~$7. Did I mention that the food was good?!

Never expected myself to drive two hours for some ribeye steak, but it was worth the experience. We…read morerandomly scrolled on YouTube and watched someone rated this THE BEST in Texas so we had to check it out. What makes this place unique is that they use charcoal, have make their own rub, you can order as many ounces up to 32oz I believe, and they only sell ribeye steaks. The place is called the general store because that's what it used to be when first started doing business in the 1980s but later expanded and converted into a steakhouse. We got there at 4pm and there was a little bit of a line already. The restaurant is only open three days a week each day from 5:30 to 9. On Thursday they have fried catfish and Friday and Saturday they sell only steak. The minimum order starts at 10oz and each ounce increment is a little bit extra charge. We ordered the 24 ounce to be shared between the two of us total is about $70 and we still have some leftover. The charcoal flavor was not overpowering, but the seasoning of the steak was perfectly balanced. Usually, I eat my steak with extra pepper or chimichurri, but this one I was able to eat without any extra seasoning. The surface of the steak look heavily seared but the medium interior was really juicy and succulent. I could taste more char on the edge pieces. After the steak we headed to their second shop next door for some malt shake. I got the cookies n creame flavor, it was milky and not overly sweet like any other milkshakes. And the malt flavor lingers on the tongue after each sip. I was debating to get another one but chocolate flavor but I was too full. Service there overall was very welcoming, and dining area is really big, the interior feels like an old western cabin but very clean and spacious. Great for family gatherings too. They also have a BYOB offer for people who love some good sips along with the smokey steak.

The lunch menu offered a great variety of options, and every meal included a fresh house salad and warm rolls. We ordered the spaghetti with meatballs, a Stromboli, and grilled chicken with grilled vegetables. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The kids shared a large cheese pizza, and it was outstanding. The crust was perfectly cooked with great flavor, and the pizza was easily large enough for them to share. In fact, every portion was so generous that we asked for to-go boxes as soon as our meals arrived because we knew there was no way we'd finish everything! The service was friendly, the food arrived promptly, and the quality exceeded our expectations. If you're looking for authentic Italian food with generous portions and excellent value, Roma Italian Bistro is an easy recommendation. We'll definitely return the next time we're in Jacksonville.

So here we are, dropped into a tiny Texas town that feels like I accidentally wandered onto the set…read moreof a gritty late-night indie film... or maybe a toned-down Charlaine Harris novels situation--minus the fangs, but with just enough "what is happening here?" energy to keep things interesting. We have zero sense of direction, everything feels vaguely ominous, and we didn't exactly come for a leisurely getaway--we rushed down to Texas because my dad is dealing with a serious medical situation. So the mission is clear: get to my parents' house and help my mom. That's it. Survival mode, but make it family-focused. Then--plot twist--my sister and nephew call. They want to see us and casually mention they'll bring pizza. Now listen... in any other circumstance, I might pause. Ask questions. Do research. Vet the pizza situation like a responsible adult. But in this moment? Free food is free food, and emotionally exhausted people do not ask follow-up questions. So we say yes. And yet, there's hesitation. Because we are in this town. This mysterious, slightly cinematic, possibly haunted-feeling Texas town. And I don't know what a "local pizza place" means here. Are we talking hidden gem? Or regret wrapped in melted cheese? They arrive. Boxes in hand. No turning back now. We open them... and immediately--plot twist #2. It's actually really good. Like, not "oh this will do" good. Not "we're hungry so we'll pretend it's fine" good. No--this is legitimately solid pizza. Fresh, hot, clearly made with real ingredients and actual effort. Cheese, a fully-loaded "works" situation, and one mystery pizza that I didn't fully identify but enthusiastically ate anyway. And I didn't just have a polite slice. I went back. Multiple times. For all of them. They tell us it's a local chain and one of the best in the area, and honestly? I believe them. Whatever low expectations I walked in with were completely unnecessary. End result: pleasantly surprised, slightly humbled, and very well-fed. Would absolutely eat it again--especially under less emotionally chaotic circumstances, but honestly... it held up even under those. That's saying something.
