    My wife & I visited Granite House on a recent Fredericksburg anniversary trip on the recommendation…read morefrom our Airbnb host and had a great visit. Overall, 1 of our favorite food stops on this trip! Our order consisted of 1 order of bang bang shrimp, 1 spinach & artichoke dip appetizer, a shared seared salmon dish (not pictured), 1 blackberry margarita (not pictured), & 1 blueberry mule (not pictured). For me, the best part of our order was the bang bang shrimp. If I get to go back I'll just order 2 of those & call it good! The spinach & artichoke appetizer was good, but offered a pretty standard flavor profile. The seared salmon was the best salmon dish I've tasted in a long time, paring nicely with the mashed potatoes & roasted veggies that came with it. Both cocktails were amazing, but my wife said the blackberry margarita was fantastic. The most negative thing about GH was extremely limited indoor seating availability & the lack of reservations, but now you've been warned. It was a short trip for us, but we will be back to GH on our next visit to Fredericksburg for sure.

But the chef did not cooked the meat medium rare. It was well done and it was still delicious . The Manager provided a compensation for the error. The Chef might have had an off day.. The waitress was friendly and attentive. I was too full to order desert. I will go back and try the banana foster. The table next to is ordered it. The desert was enough for 2 people to share. The establishment is beautifully decorated. I recommend this place.

    If you haven't been to Martini's Seafood House in Fredericksburg, stop what you're doing and go --…read moreand when you get there, ask for Hunter. Right in the heart of Hill Country, Martini's manages to bring the best of coastal fine dining to Texas wine country. The vibe is upscale but relaxed, the cocktails are creative and perfectly crafted, and the seafood is as fresh as it gets. We're talking oysters, beautifully presented seafood towers, and dishes that absolutely deliver on every level. But what truly elevated our experience was our server, Hunter. From the moment we sat down, Hunter was attentive, warm, and genuinely knowledgeable about the menu. Not once did we have to flag anyone down -- Hunter was simply there, anticipating what we needed before we even asked. The recommendations were spot-on, the pacing of the meal was perfect, and Hunter's personality made the whole evening feel like we were being hosted by a friend rather than just served at a restaurant.

You should know, this is an intimate space with only eight 4 tops and a dozen seats at the bar and that's all. We got here on a Wednesday happy hour, and the place was almost full, so making a reservation might be in order. The happy hour food and drink specials is most likely the reason why the place was almost packed. The dinner menu takes the prices to the next level. We started off with a couple of $10 martinis and decided on four happy hour menu items. My shrimp Po boy came on a crunchy French baguette and the Seabass was cooked to perfection. No wonder this place was packed. At six on the dot a pianist took the stage and livened up the atmosphere. The happy hour crowd trickled out, and the dinner folks strolled in. We added their bruschetta as the final piece and it was really very fresh. Some notes of interest that others may have missed: 3% credit card fee, no wifi and there's mouthwash for you in the bathroom. Definitely a place to revisit. 10 informative photos to get you through the door.

One thing that makes this restaurant unique is that there are actually cabins situated directly across from the restaurant that you can rent out and stay in known as the Cotton Gin Village. We were seated in one of the upstairs dining rooms with lots of wine on display. One draw about this place is their incredible selection of Texas wines. They also feature some Texas beers and great signature cocktails, even wine flights. We started with Ron YatesCabernet and a martini. They do offer several of the Texas wines by the glass, nothing from CA. There's only a choice of 10 entrées on the menu and 8 appetizers all of which are enticing. They do give you a sample of their carrot soup, but no complementary bread. I decided on the chicken fried ribeye and paired it with the Reddy cab. My wife had the grilled pork tenderloin medallions. The chicken fried ribeye was very tender with plenty of lobster chunks on top and no gristle whatsoever. The pork medallions were equally as delicious and the 3 cheese grits were a perfect pairing. We cleaned our plates and had no room for dessert. We enjoyed every bite and Kyle our waiter was exceptional as our server. We look forward to returning and trying something new off the menu. Perfect place for great food and well-made Texas wine. Informative photos and video included.

    I'll treat this as an update to a review I did in May of 2023. The experience this year was far…read morebetter than what we experienced in 2023. This was my wife's birthday and we reserved a table for 6:30 pm which worked out perfectly after a long day of wine tasting. The atmosphere was exactly as we had experienced last time, but this time we sat inside the restaurant instead of outside. It was pleasant, not noisy, and had a very nice semi-formal dinner vibe. Our server (Edie) was very gracious and friendly. She quickly sat us and filled water glasses, brought menus and let us know that there were no specials (my thought was "after all this was a Wednesday night ;0)") There was a very nice card at our table wishing my wife a happy birthday, and Edie brought us a complimentary small serving of a very delicious soup (Roasted Carrot & Ancho); nice touch! I ordered a Hill Country Martini, which was delicious (ice cold with jalapeno-stuffed olives). They do have a date night special offering on the menu, but that would have been too much for us. We decided to each order a salad (I had the Steak Knife Wedge and my wife had the Tejas Ranch Caesar). We wanted to split the 14-ounce ribeye as we had a fairly decent lunch during our wine tour. The salads were large and full of great stuff! The wedge was loaded with chunks of blue cheese and bacon over ice cold lettuce. My wife's Caesar was delicious, and the dressing was perfect. Our steak was cooked to perfection (medium-rare) and served with mixed grilled veggies that were amazing. The steak was perfectly flavored, with amazing char, and mated perfectly with my martini. For dessert, we were provided a free piece of delicious cheesecake (birthday celebration for my wife) and it was very, very good! Overall, this was a much better experience than we had in 2023 and we will most certainly be back for more! Ambiance - 10/10 Service - 10/10 Food - 10/10 Value - 10/10

The first time, the crawfish was good, a bit overcooked. It happens. I figured I'd come back another time and it would probably be fine. No big deal--everything else was great, and the service was good. Today I came back. The place was pretty full, which is usually a good sign. I picked an open picnic table literally about five feet from other people who were eating. There was a menu on the table and a napkin holder with the drink menu on it. The first server (very nice, very pleasant guy) politely asked me to move because they don't serve that table. I said no problem, even though the menus were right there. He personally walked me to another table and took my order. Then another guy (not nice at all) walked up and told me I had to move again. At that point, I just got up and left. I really wanted to give this place another chance because it's on my weekend route. But I felt disrespected, and it honestly pissed me off enough that I'm writing this review. I'm sure the food is great--I'm not knocking that. But the second server needs a job outside of the people business. The one star is for him.

I know I like la crema so mine was yum. The hush puppies were crispy outside and nice & soft inside. The dip had a nice kick...I'm guessing jalapeño ranch. Good app. We got shrimp & catfish and shrimp & flounder. The shrimp and fries were really good. My husband enjoyed his founder, too. My catfish, unfortunately, tasted strong of ammonia and was inedible. The server took it back and said they'd "figure it out". I wasn't asking for anything just letting them know. The chef told the server it was not bad but being from Louisiana I've eaten ten times my weight in fried catfish i know what I know. The server, Louie, was excellent. He was super gracious and we will come back because of him and his exemplary customer service. He took it off the bill and was very concerned I would be going home hungry. What a caring heart. Was going to give 2 stars but Louie's attitude bumped the experience to three stars. I'll review again next time but no catfish for me here. We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful evening air and view.
