    Great burgers, great atmosphere and great service. Who wouldn't want to stop, eat great food and take a picture of the grumps. Send it to that grumpy old person in your life.

    Bacon cheeseburger and spicy fries

    If you ace a no-frills burger, you deserve every good thing that comes your way. I live 3.5 hours away from Abilene and was literally passing through just to transport a dog to their new home and then drive back to DFW. I needed fuel for the long trek back and thought this place looked pretty good. I am now trying to see if it would be crazy to make the drive again literally just for this burger. The place was packed at lunch time on a Saturday. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger and spicy fries. I waited 30 minutes and started to get kind of annoyed it was taking so long but I take EVERY BAD THOUGHT back as soon as I tasted the food. The burger was delicious. Everything tasted so fresh and it didn't leave me feeling gross and greasy like burgers tend to do. The "spicy" in the fries just means they're seasoned to the max with peppers. They also were extremely fresh, perfectly crisp, and I left no crumbs while I took my time enjoying them. If you live nearby and haven't been here, you are doing yourself a disservice.

    Great burgers and awesome atmosphere! The dublin drinks were a nice treat. Everyone was friendly and helpful. We are even toying with the idea of franchising we loved it so much!

    Went back to Grumps with a friend from Huntsville. We told her she needed the experience. Lol we ordered southern slush and fried pickles and then got a bacon cheeseburger ... yes there was 2 slices of bacon this time and dirty fries with queso and chips. She could not quit talking about it. Y'all were spot on today!!!!! She said she was glad there were no grumps around her because she would gain 20 pounds lol. Good job grumps. I knew you had it in you!!!

Fair pricing in my opinion, because they really load up the sandwiches and they are quite big. Not very busy when I visited at 6pm which I liked. Comfort: 4/5 - chairs are a little uncomfortable if you're a bigger person. Otherwise it's fine, very clean! Sensory Notes: 5/5 - natural light from large windows was easy on the eyes. No excessively loud noises, and music was the perfect volume. *all reviews are based on my personal experience as a disabled AuDHD girlie who wants to provide the kind of info I would look for myself*

They now have something on the menu called Duo's. I get half a sandwich and half a salad For $10. That's a great deal. The sandwich is always good, and the salad is even better. I always get the Capriotti chopped salad, which is the same as an Italian antipasto salad. With their red wine vinaigrette dressing, this salad is absolutely delicious! I have ordered it over and over. I always get the Italian sandwich, which is always a winner. With the duos special, there are several different combinations you can get. I will definitely be back, and I suggest you give them a try!

Casual. We sat at the bar and our bartender was amazing! He was funny and attentive despite being very busy! Service: The restaurant was so busy with diners even at 8:30 PM on a Saturday evening. I did not expect it to be this busy in my head. My husband and I sat at the bar since that was open seating and there were no sit down tables available inside or on the patio. The restaurant will add you to the waitlist if you'd like! Food: My husband and I shared the deviled eggs appetizer, and "the burger" with grilled jalapeños and pepper jack cheese. The deviled wggs (satan's huevos) were good, and spicy because we chose the "hellfire" option. The burger was huge! I'm glad my husband I split it because there was no way I'd finish that burger on my own! We both left content and not stuffed.

    We ended up sitting at the bar because there was a 25 minute wait, so I'd recommend doing a…read morereservation in advance if you don't want to wait. The service at the bar was pretty good, our glasses never went empty and the bar tender was really nice. My boyfriend got a burger, he said it was good but really messy to eat. I got the Ahi Tuna and the tuna itself was fresh, however I wasn't expecting the noodles to be cold so it through me off a bit with the texture. Overall not a bad dish if you're looking for something fresh 8/10. The cocktails were also really good, I'd recommend overall and would come back!

We loved it all and this is definitely going to be on our regular rotation for brunch spots!

(chips were pretty good) The salmon was overcooked and the grilled broccoli practically raw. This meal was so underwhelming it reminded me of maybe something you might pick up in a grocery store in that section where people who don't cook go to get ready-made meals. It was right at that level. Service- Two or three stars. Mediocre. I've been here once before, btw, and that experience was probably an overall 3-star. This time was right before a show at the convention center next door. You'd think that maybe the restaurant would have been prepared for a crowd? Apparently not, since our food was slow to come (the table next to us had both of their steaks comp'ed due to slow service and not being cooked as asked). When I asked for a wine list, the server stated that he would "try to find one", and it took awhile. And the restaurant was probably only about 60% full. I mean, if I'm going to wait forever for my food, at least let me be drinking while I wait! The appetizer arrived with our food, btw. Love that... Ambiance: Five Stars. The restaurant looks nice. Get your act together, Smokehouse! It would be nice if we could count on a nice meal before a show without having to Uber to and from the hotel/venue for it.
