The best part though.... The service. We had the privilege of being served by Becca. I don't know if I've ever met a happier person with such a beautiful personality. She made sure my buddies food was cooked properly because of a food allergy. She made a few wonderful suggestions to me and made sure I had all the sauces for my kabobs. She stopped by to make sure we were happy with everything a few times. She truly made the experience better a billion times over.

The macaroni salad was just ok. Located within the MK&T Depot Katy building downtown Belton. Parking can be limited if it's a busy weekend. Walk up and order. Dine in the communal seating shared with Pizza PieRos. We were able to order beers from PizzaPieRos to go with our sandwiches. Some of the tables were dirty.. not sure which business is responsible for cleaning the dining area since it is shared. Service was good enough - nice but slightly disinterested and looked a little sloppy. This place shows up on google and facebook but not on Apple maps. Overall it was a good experience.

The ladies are professional and on point with their job, they hustle and are aware. Also easy to talk to and keep a conversation which is a rarity sometimes. Enjoy this place , and a movie theater next door to catch a flick after a drink.

The dining room has nice wooden tables with matching chairs, and plays music at a respectable level (classic hits). It gives millennial burger restaurant without all the pretentiousness. I had the Thursday special, fish and chips. I'm a sucker for cod, but I think it was well battered and not over-fried. Wish there had been a little malt vinegar to go with it, but I enjoyed the lemon on it. The fries (or chips for those across the pond) were well seasoned with salt, pepper, and something else that I couldn't identify but it tasted very nice. Also ordered a signature cocktail, Texas Storm. It had ginger beer, dark rum, and blackberry syrup. Quite a heavy pour from the bartender which is much appreciated. Definitely coming back.

All in all we would definitely try it again since the ambience was perfection and good food!

Love finding nice establishments like this in Temple! Easy…read moreaccess off W Adams with ample parking. I'd say this is a mix of casual, recreational fun with high end dining elements. Big building with spacious dining areas, outdoor space, and the pickleball courts of course. There's also an upstairs area that's exclusively for members. The interior and exterior design is exceptional. Very clean and pleasing to the eye. Welcome to All - not just pickleballers! High end liquors with experienced mixologists. Great cocktail list. Wine list was pretty short but had some good bottles on it. Brunch food was good. The breakfast croissant sandwich was hard to handle and fell apart but tasty. The Southern Poutine was hearty and comforting (sausage in lieu of cheese curds) The bartender was exceptional-knowledgeable, engaging, and attentive. Would love to see a broader wine list with greater range. Was disappointed they didn't have the fireplaces on especially since it's been so cold. A nice fireplace would have really elevated the experience by adding a cozy atmosphere. Also, they have a fruit fly problem.

Barbara and the owner both greeted me. Nice humidor full of boutique cigars and a selection of…read morepipes and pipe tobacco as well. The blue star marked selections are from Texas makers.

Compared to other cigar bars, this one falls short in both value and the variety of cigars…read moreavailable. The biggest issue, though, is the overall atmosphere. When an employee walks into the humidor while you're trying to browse, it creates an uncomfortable feeling--almost like they don't trust their customers. Part of the experience of visiting a cigar bar is being able to take your time and explore the selection at your own pace. Constantly having someone nearby, watching and waiting for questions, takes away from that. If I need help, I'll ask for it. Otherwise, I prefer to browse without feeling monitored. I'm just saying!!

The chicken is thigh meat which is different but good. Definitely will be back.

You have the preference to pick lakeside, so we chose that and were seated outdoors with a view of Belton Lake. Upon getting seated, we orderered the Calamari, the Crab Cakes, the Fried Catfish, Shrimp and Grits, Salmon Salad, and the burger. I also got their Sunrise Tequila cocktail (as they were out of the sunset margarita that I had initially wanted to try). I loved my shrimp and grits! The dish was super tasty, and the grits were cheesy and delicious. The fried catfish was also great, and the calamari appetizer was shared amongst the four of us. I do not think I liked the crab cake as much, but it was still pretty good. My personal preference at least. My boyfriend ordered a soda, and it was nice that they let you get a collectible cup for your soda to go as well! Would come again!

This restaurant has SO MUCH POTENTIAL yet it falls short every time I go. This last time we went…read more(6/20/26) it was for a new reason. It was in the mid 80s and over 50% humidity outside. We were wanting to sit outside for the amazing view. We are led to the table closest to the back door. The misters were on like an indoor sprinkler fire suppression system. I'm talking soaking wet everything. Our table was getting misted and the chairs on the mister side had puddles of water on the seats. This is because the humidity outside was too high for misters to be effective (they cool air via evaporation- it was too humid for this to occur). We asked our waitress (who was great) if we could get the misters turned down or off since they were not making it any cooler and just getting everything soaking wet and she said she didn't want to get in trouble. I said they could be mad at us and just tell the manager the misters are getting everything wet. She gave the impression that she'd asked this several times before and management denied customer requests to turn them off. It was so soaking wet the floor had a "caution wet floor" sign on it, which means management was aware of the state of the situation and did nothing. ? Management, if the misters are resulting in wet surfaces, that means the mist is not evaporating, and the misters are not working. This is a very simple concept. There are other things that could be improved. Once the sun started setting we were getting blinded so we all moved to the other side of the table facing away from the sun (and the lake). This is an easy fix- install some shades! This is a double solution as they can be used to retain warmth in cold weather. Overall the food was really good. The gumbo was weirdly gelatinous and did NOT TASTE LIKE traditional gumbo- I'm from southeast Texas, from a long line of Cajun cooks. It tasted more like gravy and had a gravy texture. Not really edible. The snapper was delicious. The basil cream sauce was a smart choice, but it also was way too thick and had a goopy, non-pourable texture. Seemed like too much cornstarch was added. I ordered a bahama mama and asked for the alcohol on the side because I've felt the drinks are skimped here in the past, and they only gave me 1 shot of rum when the menu says there is a light and a dark rum shot in the drink. Waitress said the drink already had the coconut rum in it- definitely didn't taste like it. Plus, I've asked for this before and they did bring out 2 shots, so I think I just got skimped which is per usual. There was also a 6-ish y/o little boy who spent about 20-30 mins running and stomping up and down the deck right alongside our table. He was enjoying himself stomping in the mister puddles. Not his fault that he wasn't being supervised or contained; his parents were somewhere way far away out of eye and earshot. I saw waitresses notice, but no one made the effort to get this child's parents to corral him back to their table. We love kids so this wasn't as big of a deal as it could have been. So much potential, so many oversights. I believe in this place and I know they can improve!
