We started with a 1/2 order of onion rings. Yes, my pic shows a 1/2 order! Totally crispy & delicious! I ordered the daily special (fried fish) & my husband had hamburger steak. The fish, hush puppies, & okra were perfectly fried. The Cole slaw was creamy & definitely homemade. My hubby loved his hamburger steak, gravy, & grilled veggies. Everything was cooked just right & tasted homemade. My lunch ended with a cupcake. Gotta love that! Lots of locals were eating lunch here. That's always a good sign. Super cute "farm" decor.

Sounds like small town Texas doesn't it? It's rare that I take the car club into an unexplored restaurant. But, there was confidence. Yelp profile? Not so much; but a recent feature on a Texas centric TV show called the Daytripper. Enough for me to take a chance on Jacoby's. Said family also has an east Austin eatery but I don't dine after five. High time I lead some cars out to Melvin, Texas. Left Bee Cave and took every curvy road I could because sports cars. Took longer to arrive than taking straight roads but we're now sitting down in the cafe. Uhhh, where are the steaks from your own private heard? Dinner menus delivered to the table. You can't stop staring at the desserts at the end of the bar. Onion rings were amazing. Don't think artful or presentation here folks; think squirt bottle of ranch. Still need more but saving for the main course. Steak was delivered and the GF cut off her personal hunk. First thoughts is to compare the dining adventure with Hilltop Cafe and Johnny Nicholas at Hilltop Cafe. If you build it they will come. I think the term "home made" is used WAY too much these days. Jacoby's nails this category. Simply prepared great steak, veggies, salad, and desserts. Staffers even protected the desserts with wrap in between servings. It was good to walk in and dine; locals dressed to a "T" because this is a special occasion restaurant for them. I bought a hat. First time in forever I'm wearing supporting carb. Great place!

Both were very good, one of the best chicken fried steaks, I've had, definitely not frozen. If you are a senior, the small is probably enough!

Then comes a generous layer of savory beans, followed by a mountain of tender, smoky chopped brisket that falls apart with every bite. A rich, tangy barbecue sauce soaks into everything, while crisp pickles cut through the richness with the perfect bright snap. Cool sour cream and a blanket of shredded cheese melt into the hot toppings, tying the whole thing together in pure comfort food glory. Every component hits exactly right. It is smoky, savory, creamy, tangy, and just the right amount of sauce without a single note out of place. It's massive, messy in the best way, and so ridiculously delicious you'll be scraping the skin clean and still wishing there was more. Do yourself a favor and get there early. This potato and their barbecue are the real deal. They have amazing customer service, too!

They're always super fast to get your food out to you, even when they're packed. I definitely always favor this over something like Whataburger or McDonald's when we come through.
