Fresh, hot and smelled absolutely delicious.Followed by a great salad bar and all you can eat shrimp. The shrimp was huge and the plates started out with 20 deliciously fried buttery flavored coating and it came with two sides. Reorders came with 6 more shrimp at a time. I had the green beans and the Mac n cheese. Both were delicious. The jalapeño soup was very tasty and I could have had a second bowl. I would recommend coming here anytime. I will definitely come back here when in Palacios and would drive there for the day just to eat.

Drove almost two hours from Houston for their Saturday brunch only to find the doors locked! Big time bummer! Maybe some tragic event? Hopefully not calling it quits! Bay City NEEDS Fat Grass! Went to Waterfront in Matagorda for lunch instead. Really nice, but not Fat Grass. Upon returning to retrieve our SUV from in front of Fat Grass, we notice that, lo and behold, they are opening for evening service. Felt like walking over and asking why their website fibbed to us, but foot hurting from recent surgery, so just traveled on to my parents house for drinks and the Kentucky Derby.... Therefore, not really a review; just a comment on the lackadaisical attitude of management I've come to expect from lesser establishments these days regarding treatment of "valued" customers... Nice job!

The food always comes out hot, and the staff is super friendly--even when I've been a little less than friendly myself. Overall, it's a great spot.

No ketchup I had to ask for a lot of items even the pickle and onion that comes with the barbecue plates. I paid nearly $60 for three meals I just thought the priority wasn't given for my order for what I paid. Normally the food is walked out to dine in guests and the plates were not distributed together and some food was cold. Need to improve for the prices charged for plates. Please offer bread to guests with combo meals. Food and cost of living is too high for mediocre service.

I ordered Parmesan crusted salmon that was so dry it felt like I had cotton in my mouth. The parmesan on top was the kind you sprinkle on pizza and was VERY salty. VERY SALTY! The asparagus I ordered as a side was so tough I had trouble cutting it with my knife and even then it was stringy. The best part of my meal was the bread and dipping oil, the tomato basil soup and my iced tea. If I ever return, my best bet is a bowl of soup, bread and dipping oil with iced tea to drink. The others in my party said their food was too salty to eat. This restaurant had some of the BEST food I had ever eaten but that was when Vinny and Sue owned the place. It has gone from a 10+ rating to a 2.5 or maybe a 3 at best. It is sad to see the poor quality of a place that was once an excellent eatery.

The menu is intentionally restrained in structure, yet broad in direction cheese trays. unexpected, almost out of place for a small establishment, tapas as a newer addition, a strong emphasis on wine with a sweet wine flight, alongside steaks, sides, pastas, and even burgers. There's ambition in the variety, though not always cohesion. Seafood leans heavily on tilapia, which appears disproportionately across the fish selection. Not inherently negative, but noticeable. The ribeye, priced at $33.95, carried mixed execution. tender in parts, but inconsistent with noticeable dry sections. The scallops arrived cold, which significantly disrupted what should have been a highlight dish. Service was not the issue. Atmosphere was calm, controlled, and easy to sit in without distraction. The space itself does not fight the experience. it simply holds it. In totality, the restaurant lands in an uneven space: capable, sometimes enjoyable, but inconsistent in execution where it matters most. 4/5. good, but not well. -L.T

The pieces were inconsistent in shape and thickness, and you can clearly see ragged knife work and excess connective tissue that shouldn't be there in a premium cut. A true filet should be clean, round, and tightly trimmed, but these looked more like end scraps pressed together rather than proper medallions. For the price of filet mignon, I expect professional butchering--not rough cuts that cook unevenly. Definitely not the quality I paid for, and I won't be purchasing this cut from here again.

Genuinely a great option. Service above par. Food was delicious…read more The bread was so soft and paired with a chimichurri and a pecan butter. The chimichurri had a kick to it from time to time, but I still ate it because it was really good with the slight sourness I like! The guacamole chicharron was so crispy and flavorful! I would come back just for that. We also ordered from the restaurant week menu. I got the Flora di Zucca which is zucchini blossoms. I genuinely thought it would be pieces of zucchini cut into shapes of flowers, but it was the actual flower! It was yummy! When I seemed confused, they let me try their regular zucchini too! I got the soup of the day which was a creamy mushroom soup and upgraded the sirloin to the filet. Both were worth getting. The filet was a little more cooked than I liked, but still pink in the middle, seasoned well, and tender. Their mashed potatoes honestly might be the best I've ever had at a restaurant. They gave me a sauce to go with the meal that they couldn't exactly describe. I can't exactly describe either. It was good though. I feel like it was similar to stroganoff gravy, savory and sour and a hint of something else. I upgraded one of the sides to the strawberry mozzarella salad, but I did not care for the vinaigrette that came with it. The pistachio cake was not what I was expecting. It was ok, but didn't really taste like pistachio aside from the pistachio crumble on top and was slightly dry. For just the chicharron and the mashed potatoes, I'd come here again. But pretty much everything we ate was solid and worth trying.
