Decent atmosphere and service but thoroughly mediocre burgers. Stopped in for a business lunch on a Thursday in late May. Ordered the burger. Bun was ruined by being overly buttered (perhaps trying to cloak partially stale bun) and the burger was mediocre at best. Tasted like a frozen burger patty. Good side salad. Service was good. Overall cleanliness: above average Bathroom cleanliness: average read more

3.75 My husband and I returned to Satellite ATC Restaurant to pick up some food. My husband ordered and picked it up. It was quick and easy. This time around I shared the ATX Dirty Quesadilla with my husband. It's really good. It has a lot of flavor packed into one bite. It came with a dipping sauce which added to the flavor but you didn't necessarily need it. My husband also liked it. For my meal I ordered the Reapers Revenge Chicken Sandwich. It's a crispy piece of chicken with coleslaw and pickles. It's very good. It was slightly spicy but it had enough spice that you could taste. I ordered my sandwich with a side of Parmesan Fries. The fries were okay. They were thick and soft and not the kind of fries I prefer but they were okay. The parmesan had no flavor and had cooled making it crispy making the cheese easy to pull off of the fries. So I pulled off the cheese and ate the fries with ketchup. My husband got tater tots as his side. They were actually pretty good. Crispy exterior filled with potato and yummy with ketchup. Overall Satellite has a quick and easy ordering and pickup process and the food is okay. read more

We LOVE Satellite! Their community happy hour is amazing and we love to visit when they have live music. The bartenders are always friendly. We split a burger and it was great. I want to come back for mah Jong! read more

Not impressed nor worth the hefty price. Their cheeseburger were too plain and sauce ahem nah nothing special about it., too vinegary. Their parmesan french fries are not good either, they just threw in Parmesan sprinkled and bland seasoning (lazy effort is obviously seen) You are better off going to Hopdoddys to get the real cheeseburger and seasoned french fries. read more

The food and entertainment were stellar but I had to flag down a server to get silverware while my food sat getting cold. The entertainment was outside with heaters so I was hot on one side and freezing on the other. I didn't leave but will think twice before going back again. read more

Fall 2024 lunch food features was still available where the trees outside have finally turned fall colors. I ordered the Maple-Braised Pork Carnitas Tacos and even though considered a starter it was just enough. It was two regular sized tacos loaded with delicious pork with spiced apple slaw on top of it. It had great flavor and fulfilling. The staff was finely as usual and great adult place to hang out at. read more

I think they must have a new chef. . .went in on Mother's day and hamburger I ordered was overcooked, ATX sauce was catsup and there was no jam on it as the menu stated. They use to have amazing hamburgers!!! Wait staff was good! read more

This is a casual diner type place that you order at the counter and they bring your order out to your table. It's a serve yourself type setup for fountain drinks and an ample amount of lemons for your water or food. Breakfast here is amazing but I also love this salmon dish. I've ordered it every time I've been here for a lunch or dinner. The overall vibe is very retro type diner and the staff is friendly. Just if you order anything extra that's different, there can be some confusion. My friend who usually comes with me here, can't have carbs, so she orders extra vegetables and extra lemon butter. Literally every time they miss the extra butter sauce and never ask which dish goes to whom. So there's a disconnect from the kitchen staff and whomever takes your order. The food is great, parking is ample but if you go at a busy time, you may have to sharp around for a space as there are other businesses in the same shopping centre that serve food. The prices are very reasonable and they're consistent on what they serve. read more

We'd been meaning to try Satellite since we drive past it all the time in the Circle C shopping center so we stopped in during happy hour. They had discounted bites and drinks. We split the lettuce wraps to start and ordered the redfish tacos. The fish tacos stole the show. They were fantastic! The flavors were bold and the fish was cooked just right. The lettuce wraps unfortunately fell short. The chicken was a bit bland and the lettuce itself was tiny. I couldn't pile any of the toppings onto it or make any kind of wrap. The service was attentive and our waitress was kind. The energy/vibe overall wasn't there. I'm thinking it might have been due to the time of day so maybe try it for dinner or on the weekend if you want a livelier atmosphere. read more

Lovely place to eat. My daughter and I went for brunch. I had the crab cake Benny, it was so delicious and filling. I didn't eat again until late evening. My daughter had scrambled eggs. She usually puts ketchup and cheese on her eggs, but she took one bite and gobbled them up without any additions. We ate outside, it was a beautiful day. Service was great. Price was reasonable. I'm from Spicewwod, but next time I come to this area, this will definitely be the place to eat. read more

I had the Gulf Shrimp shrimp tacos which were yummy, and a nice glass of Malbec. Everyone at my table enjoyed their individual meal, Greek Gyro Salad, Signature Burger, and the Mediterranean Harvest Bowl. They all enjoyed signature Martinis. Our appetizer was the Calamari and we topped everything off with the desert, Death by Chocolate. (True description of the desert!) Our wait staff were friendly, helpful, efficient and delightful, which made for a lovely evening. Thanks to RJ, Shay and Tatum for your great service!!!! Now, if Satellite will just bring back their Grilled Salmon, Fried Shrimp and Meatloaf, we'll all be sure to keep coming back! read more

This has been a lunch favorite for years; however, recent menu changes eliminated my favorite wedge salad, a friend's veggie burger and added several new unappealing dishes. In addition we were charged a 20% gratuity even though there were just five of us. We would have paid at least that amount but did not appreciate the presumption. The service and management are usually steller but the waiter was a bit impatient when we pointed out the error. read more

Unfortunately, the food at this restaurant has degraded seriously since a new owner took over, even with some of the dishes that stayed from the old menu. It's like they are using poorer quality ingredients, or maybe they didn't buy the recipes, ha! I live nearby and this was a regular spot for my family, but no longer. Everybody whines when we eat here now. So realize that their rating is reflecting all the old outstanding reviews more than the new disappointed reviews. read more

We really love this restaurant and come here whenever we have a chance. It's a really uniquely decorated spot. Start off with the Greek fireside saganaki, which they will light on fire at your table side. The service is always great, but I definitely recommend making a reservation for busy nights. I personally love their redfish. read more

Great spot for fresh, affordable lunch. Popped in here after fasting for bloodwork and I was famished and craving french fries (which are not part of my normal diet). Decided to have the chicken salad sammie on GF bread with side salad amd side of fries. this pleasantly surprised with a generous portion of all. The chicken salad was perfectly dressed with not too much mayo. The salad was fresh with many selections of dressing. The fries were perfectly crisp and not too salty. Hit the spot for sure. And friendly service. Can't ask for more. read more

Ordered pancake and eggs with a side of bacon. Was blown away at how poorly executed. Pancakes were flimsy and flavorless. Bacon tasted as if it was freezer burnt and then overcooked. Eggs were as expected. It's been a few hours and still can taste how bad the bacon was. Service was ok and friendly. Drinks were suspiciously cheap. My partner got scallion potatoes as a breakfast side and they were creamy and separating with some soggy potatoes. read more

I really enjoyed my Greek gyro salad, it was very flavorful and fresh and everything mixed in well together. I had a few bites of the reaper's revenge chicken sandwich and although it wasn't as spicy as I was expecting it to be, the chicken was juicy and crispy and delicious. I was also able to try a bite of the bourbon and brisket burger and it was probably one of the best burgers I've ever had. It had a thick patty that was well seasoned and had the perfect amount of glaze. read more

Five star rating - that was the easiest part of visiting Satellite! The hardest part was figuring out what to order from their extensive menu with lots of great options! Five people in our party opted for the Brussel sprouts (5 stars) and calamari (4 stars) appetizers to start. Sprouts were one of our favorite parts of the entire meal. A few drinks were ordered too - House Ritas were good (very strong too) and the Circle C Mule served in the copper mug was enjoyed. For the main courses we ordered the Red Fish Tacos (5 stars) - watch for heat if your spice tolerance isn't great), Butterflied Panko Shrimp (5 stars), a couple Filet of Beef Tenderloins w/ grilled & fried shrimp added (5 stars for both) - be aware cook seems to error on the side of under & not over cooked & the special guest celebrating his graduation opted for the "Shorty's" Beef Rib (5 stars). A testament to how good the food looked & tasted - we forgot to take pics!!!! The table ordered Ceasar (5 stars), Wedge (5 stars) and regular house salad pre meal. The homemade blue cheese vinaigrette is amazing! Our favorite part of the meal might have been the "favorite ever" Carrot Cake dessert that we shared. If more than 5 stars were available, that'd be the rating. Service (5 stars) and ambiance (5 stars) were top notch! One member from our party lives locally and plans on revisiting to try more from the menu in the future. read more

Stopped in for some drinks, ended up having some redfish and shrimp which was out of this world! Incredibly fresh and VERY good! They also have live music which is perfect for anyone not looking to go into the city or with kids as they have several games for younger kids like giant connect four or cornhole! read more

Long time patrons of Satellite here. While we were very excited when hearing they had new owners, we have been so disappointed in the consistency of the food and the ongoing problem of being out of certain wines and alcohol. Tonight the meatloaf we ordered was cold along with the green beans and potatoes. My wedge salad had brown lettuce and hardly any bacon or tomatoes on it. The taps have been out for weeks and there doesn't seem to be any time frame that it will be fixed. Sure hope they can turn things around. We won't be back for awhile until we hear things have improved. Props to Shay and Dustin for sticking it out in a less than desirable environment as an employee. read more

I had the filet mignon cooked medium rare. It was served with demi-glace sauce, mashed potatoes, and green beans. The steak was excellent, very tender. It was better quality than I have had at chain steakhouses like Saltgrass. The demi-glace sauce was very nice. The mashed potatoes were also excellent. The green beans were crisp but TBH I am not a big fan of green beans. I would definitely go back for this but I might try to substitute something else for the green beans. read more

We were excited to find a place nearby and were becoming regulars but I doubt we'll ever go back. Their only frozen margarita machine is frequently out of commission and now it's been on the fritz for over a month and the staff say they do not think the owners plan to get it fixed. So no frozens at happy hour nor any other time going forward. Their on the rocks margaritas used to be a decent substitute. They were tasty and potent. But now they are neither. We ordered chips and queso on our final visit there which was yesterday. Both the chips as well as the queso were tasteless and unimpressive. They used to have live music 3 nights a week now it's once a week if you're lucky. As if that weren't enough the service which used to be pretty good is horrible now. The owners obviously have adopted a hands off approach and have left the staff in charge and they all seem like they're not happy to be there. Regrettably we'll have to find another place nearby. read more

Satellite is my new favorite go-to place for Sunday brunch. It doesn't hurt that my church is nearby. It also helps that they participate in KXAN's Be Our Guest gift certificate program. It's a cozy, modern venue with a space age theme. The brunch menu is not extravagant, but there are a few options. There are usually specials on Sunday brunch mimosas and margaritas. Service oriented attentive staff round out the deal. Recommended. read more

We went today for brunch after a long absence I had the launch pad with 2 eggs pancake and a side of sausage. I was supposed to get fruit but it was not served. The eggs and pancake were ok nothing special no butter was served with the pancake. The sausage was overcooked dry and more like a hockey puck. My wife had the French toast sandwich with fruit and was happy with her food. They seemed very short staffed slow to wait on us and a long time to be served and very few patrons. They are having some problems which I hope the overcome read more

This place should be closed!!! For the last years the restaurant went worse and worse. The menu is very limitted and what they make it does not have any or very strange taste, from salads to main courses. They count on people getting there for drinks, and even with the drinks the products or ingridients they use in cocktails, for examples, are probably the chippest ones, and prices are not realistic at all. An order of mimosa (6 oz fulte glass) was taken and charged as a glass of proseco with the price of $12.99. Too bad for the community to have this kind of restaurant around, when they are not too many options!!!! read more

I was looking forward to getting the gyro because it was their special at lunch, so I figured they'd do it well. The lamb was dry and overcooked and the pita bread was stale. It also needed more lettuce and cucumbers. Server was nice but overwhelmed. Please please stop the practice of giving the bill to you by just stating a figure. I need a receipt. read more

We were searching for a place that could accommodate our 2 1/2yr old twin grandchildren while we all ate. This place was great! We ate out on the patio where there was space to run around and things to keep them busy. The waitstaff was kind, patient and accommodating. Kids loved the macaroni and cheese! read more

I stopped by for a light lunch and had a pleasant experience. I opted for the chicken lettuce wraps paired with a frozen mango margarita. First time visit - spot was somewhat quiet and self service (only one server on shift). Placed order through my phone and was promptly served. I am curious to see how things are when super busy. I will definitely come back again in the near future. read more

Once Upon a Time, this was the place to go while in Circle C.. but Satellite, in my opinion, has taken a backseat to other restaurants in the area in food quality. The ambiance and service is still good but the food is less desired. While the fish tacos haven't changed and are just as good as they've always been, almost everything on the menu tastes subpar. The glazed brussel sprouts were drenched with sauce, the pork chop was lightly lightly seasoned dry and overcooked, and the steaks were so-so flavored and overcooked (and they aint cheap). It's one thing if the kitchen were slammed but there were just a few tables full. While I can understand that wine can be seasonal, whoever is picking the wine isn't doing a very good job! We used to come here for happy hour and enjoy the wine selection, but nowadays, the wine is cheap and sold at prices it shouldn't be. The cocktails are so so. A lot of juice or sweetener. So much so that I would say a kid would like it bc you can't taste the Alcohol whatsoever. read more

We just wanted to have a quick cocktail. No one was in the restaurant, we sat at the bar and the waitress gave us drink menus and kept us waiting.... We ended up walking out! Terrible service- surprising as this has never happened to us here before. read more

We went for Mother's Day dinner and had a very bad experience. We ordered the beef tenderloin and Burger, both cooked medium. However, both of our orders turned out to be cooked, medium well to well. We couldn't even finish eating them, and our bill was $80. What a waste. their chef obviously does not know the meaning of medium. read more

We were greeted at the door from the Hostess/ Manager last night for dinner. Waitress was pleasant and attentive while working a good number of tables.
