Jim had the chicken fried steak small order he had beans and salad bar as his sides. The unfortunate thing was there was no tomatoes on the salad bar. The atmosphere was normal nothing to write home about beware of the traffic outside on the road. People in this town and surrounding area drive like bats from you know where. I give this place a four star rating simply because of the service and the fact that I think it's the only thing keeping this little tiny town together

We were greeted by Tano, who was very friendly and welcoming. We told him we were camping at Lake Somerville Birch Creek and he was very helpful. Menu was extensive , from breakfast all day to grilled items, senior and kid's sections and Mexican favorites. Chips and salsa were delivered immediately. Tasty salsa and good chips. We lived in Phoenix for many years and visited Mexico many times so we have a good understanding of Mexican food. Stacey waited on us and they let us the onion rings were homemade. We ordered them as an appetizer bc who doesn't like good onion rings? They were perfect, lightly battered and cooked to perfection Reminded us on onion rings at Bo's in Key West. Not the sad kind full of breading that you bite into and the whole onion slides out. These were great! I had a beef chimichanga that was crisp and loaded with steak, covered with guacamole and perfectly delicious. Will definitely return when in the area and highly for a good meal at a reasonable price. Nice pour on wine as well.

It's very country looking, so that was appealing. We started with the fried pickles for an appetizer to share. Our group was a party of 3. The pickles were a perfect split for us. The ranch served with the pickles had a tartar sauce undertone taste. It was pretty good. We all had the sweet tea and lemonade mix. It was refreshing. I ordered the regular JW's burger on a classic white bun. The burger was okay. There was no special seasoning to it. I wasn't able to order it medium. From the looks of it, it was "done", so that is a little too done for me. I like mine a little pink. They use leaf lettuce. I prefer shredded. The pickles on my burger were cut lengthwise, and 2 of the strips still had the outer skin on them. Not a fan of that. The fries were good. They had a nice crunch to them. The service was great at JW's. Our drinks were never empty, the food came out fast, and our waitress was very nice. You can't get better than country service. It was a nice change from Houston where everything is hustle and bustle. We all three split a piece of coconut pie. It was okay, but to be fair, I am not a pie person. My coworkers thought it was terrific. If I am out that way again and decide to stop in, I will order something different. Maybe the chicken fried steak. The neighboring table ordered it and it looked good! Our bill for the 3 of us was $71 and some change before tip. That seems on point for 1 appetizer, 3 drinks, 3 entrees, and 1 piece of pie. It was crowded, especially for a weekday after the lunch rush in the country, so they must be doing something right.

She had sweet tea, yeast rolls and all of the appetizers on the menu table side within 10 minutes of us walking through the door. She never stopped taking care of our large group while still helping others with their tables. The environment was light and family friendly. A group of women had reserved the large room in the back and had packed it out. Service did not seem to be affected by the two large groups. Cooks had the food out fast and the front of the house staff never stopped smiling. The attached photo was of my meal. It was the best CFS I have had in years. Fork tender, perfect golden crust that clung to the beef like a loose sock. No salt or pepper needed.

We had a very disappointing experience at this seafood restaurant in Somerville. The crawfish we…read morewere served were clearly not fresh. they smelled terrible, tasted rotten, and were completely inedible. When we brought it to the staff's attention, we expected the issue to be handled appropriately, but instead we were only refunded half of what we paid for food that should never have been served in the first place. Serving spoiled seafood is a serious issue and can make people sick. and the lack of full accountability made the experience even worse. Unfortunately, we will not be returning. If you are looking for good crawfish do not go here. My daughters food was good and so was my father in laws Though.

I'm also a first time mom and not working currently so my funds are low for spending. The staff (shout out to the ones I've met so far) Kevin, Brittany and Terrance took the time to explain how the cafe works. so many delicious options, I went with the jalapeno popper omelette which did not disappoint. Brittany helped navigate a coffee I would enjoy and I did! Try the Vietnamese iced coffee so good. my daughter and I sat outside and met Terrance, who came right up and introduced himself. made sure we were doing good and dj'd some great tunes. I'm not sure who was at the counter today but she was lovely. thank you all for the experience and great food

The restaurant feels like a large camp cabin, very cozy and warm. The servers were extremely attentive, anticipating all our needs and answering all questions fast and with a smile.

The parking lot was almost full. When we walked in, a sign directed us to seat ourselves but before we could go so, lovely staff greeted us and engaged with us.

Based on her recommendations we tried the bacon (Yum!!) Biscuits (don't miss!!) ranch potatoes, hash browns & the chicken honey biscuits (wow!!). Portion sizes are large freshly made. They know what they are doing here. The owner was raised in the area, trained at prestigious Le Cordon Bleu and returned back into her roots to open the establishment, worth a day trip to see the bluebonnets and take in a meal. We will be back again soon,

My husband flagged down another waitress after we had been sitting there for 15 minutes without any water or drinks. We also had to flag her down for the check. Considering the price tag for the night, I expected the service to be better.
