    When I am in Denton, this is a restaurant I really enjoy going to. They have home made chips that are so tasty! Honestly, for me, their chips are the best! And while I have only eaten sandwiches here, I am never disappointed. Today I had the chicken salad with grapes - so good! And our waitress was so kind and personable. You know how some wait staff are either too attentive or just disappear on you - thats not what I received today. It was the perfect amount of attention for me to enjoy my meal and also feel her presence.

    Delicious food! Reuben was great and juicy. The brussel sprouts were very flavorful and crisp. And a good portion at that! May was an excellent waitress and overall a great visit here.

    Loved this place! This place came highly recommended to me so I had to give them a try. I had a little time while getting a new battery installed in a car and so I gave them a try. Upon first entering the ambiance was very pleasant. They were very busy and yet the noise level was such we were able to visit comfortably. Typical cafe type setting, but pleasant. The star of this place is the service and the food. Noah, our waiter gave us great service. He was on top of our experience and was a big part of making the total meal experience a great one. I ordered the pancake combo breakfast. It came with 2 eggs cooked to order, a breakfast meat, hash browns or home fried potatoes, and of course pancakes! It was all really good! Also at our table was a BLT Sandwich and the Tuscan Grilled Cheese. Everyone was really happy with their meals. I don't live close, so probably won't be a regular, but certainly won't hesitate to come back when I am in Denton at a meal time!

    Western burger is one of the best burgers in Denton

    Cheeseburger and fried okra
    Jon M.

    I decided that I wanted a burger, so tried this place. I don't like the location because it takes a few to find since it's at the backside of the building your GPS will take you to. But not overly bad, though. Let's start with the okra since that's the first thing I ate lol. It was fried okra, nothing overly special or anything, but it was a change from fries like everyplace else has (it's 1 side of your choice, which had a decent list of choices). Now onto the burger. I am no fan of mayo, so I got mustard instead. The burger was pretty good size and tasted pretty good (it was a burger, so nothing to really stand out). The one thing I didn't like is that the bun they use has a sweetness to it which I can see being popular, but not a choice I would prefer when getting a burger, since the Sweetness doesn't really go with it. If got their BBQ one, might be different. The good part of the bun, though, was it was soft and didn't start to fall apart like they do many places. Overall the food was good, not exceptional. The staff was really good, though, and made it very easy to place the order, find a place to sit down, and the order was brought out to me. I may return, but if I do, would use that to get their BBQ one and test that one out. Also my order for a decent sized burger and fried okra was only just over $11, which is really cheap these days

    The food is always amazing here! and the service is great. We are regulars and haven't ever had a bad meal!!

    Mac n cheese

    My wife and I were out driving looking to grab a quick lunch and found Sidewalks Cafe. It's a small little cafe but the tables aren't packed together which is good. Our server was a nice young lady named Morgan. We asked her what was good and she made recommendations for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Morgan was extremely attentive, friendly, and helpful. I chose the catfish on her recommendation with fries and Mac n cheese. It's one piece of fish but it's a big piece. Was cooked perfectly and the breading was crispy. The fries weren't really salted which I MUCH prefer. Most places over salt fries. Fries were nice and crispy and the Mac n cheese was creamy and very flavorful. My wife got the Tuscan grilled cheese with arugula and avacado with tomato basil soup. I sampled it. It was great. Our drinks stayed topped off and Morgan came to check on us several times. Service was great. The menu has a lot of options so I think anyone can find something. It's a small little cafe but it's clean and they had a lot of staff working. However as we sat there we noticed a lot of burgers coming out of the kitchen. It's a thick burger on a sweet Hawaiian type bun according to our server. So next time I'm trying it. I very much recommend this place. Great food and great service. We will go back.

    We recently visited the Union Bear in Denton, we had been to the Frisco/Plano location before but…read morewe really like the quaintness and decor of the Denton location. Our server Daisy was AWESOME! she was super friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu. Especially in giving good recommendations when we were between items. We got the pretzel bites to start, which were really good! The salad with blackened salmon on top and I forget what they were called but similar to a "dynamite shrimp" type dish were both really good too! Drinks were also great (my husband got a few different beers all of which he said were nice! He drinks mostly IPA drinks and is super picky so for him to find good beer is saying alot! I had a few different cocktails all of which were super refreshing on the hot day it was) we would recommend anything to eat or drink from there for sure! Next time you go be sure to ask for Daisy, she will greet you with a smile and make sure you have a wonderful experience!

    Flawless vibe and killer food…read more It is incredibly rare to find a spot that can pull off a fresh, healthy sit-down dinner and a laid-back bite after a brutal workday, but Elm Fork completely nails both. We went for dinner first. Brian had the lamb tacos and I ordered the mesquite-smoked salmon with steamed broccoli and a sweet potato. It was perfect--light, smoky, and genuinely healthy without being boring. We loved the atmosphere so much that after a crazy busy workday the very next day, we headed straight back. The smoked wings are top-tier and the queso is exactly what you want at the end of a long day. What really made our visit stand out was a delightful conversation with one of the co-owners, Michael. He told us all about how they source their unique draft beers from all over--including an incredible one from Iowa that Brian absolutely loved. The vibe here is just right, and the bar staff and servers are amazing. Whether you want a great dinner or just a solid spot to unwind with a unique brew, this place is a must-visit.

We entered on a weekday mid afternoon and was greeted with a friendly hello and any help to see the menu. There were no paper menus, just the menu up on the screens above the counter. There are few sandwiches and salads, but they all looked very good so we chose the Cuban Press and Turkey Pesto Press sandwiches. After a short wait, we got our orders each on a silver tray with nicely presented half cut sandwiches and homemade chips. The Cuban press sandwich was warm, filled with seasoned chopped pork and sliced ham melted with cheese and brown mustard on a grilled ciabatta bread. It was really good like a comfort food. The turkey pesto had two thick, sliced turkey breast, warmed with freshly made pesto spread, which bloomed with the bright green color and the smell of prime freshness, and nestled with melted cheese on a grilled ciabatta bread. The first bite really welcomed the combo of warm turkey and fresh pesto. Delicious! The homemade chips were super delicious and we ate every single piece. The sandwiches were so large that we had enough to take home for another meal. The dining room was small and cozy and had two tall tables, 2 medium tables and one couple size table in the corner. Service was super friendly and sincere. Their workers really cared about the food and making it right the first time. This really is a foodie place. They had bottled wines on the wall to select from and another small cooler with chilled wines and specialty beers. They had fresh made sides upfront and desserts, but we skipped this time. Definitely something worth getting on another visit. This place was very clean. Bathroom was well taken care of. This place is in a small strip mall and is definitely worth stopping by just right off the interstate. When we're around this area again, we'd certainly will stop by again.

Now about their lemonade, it was so close to my father's that it almost brought tears to my eyes. The lemonade is tart and sweet in perfect harmony and so refreshing for these crazy hot Texas summers. Their menu is very mixed, something good for everyone so we plan on making a few trips a month so as not to miss out. Try any of their desserts, choosing will not be easy as they all look yummy. The staff is absolutely wonderful and very helpful. A place we're service with a smile is true! The restaurant was super clean and organized, staff was cleaning tables and clearing the dishes. Overall, great little place to grab a bite or take home!
