This was a fun place to visit with the Elvis decor and live music. The monster balls are a must try; however, I warn they are a bit spicy. Some of the food leaned on the salty side but overall good. read more

Nice hometown ambience with plenty of Elvis memorabilia to see. The food is always good. Waiters are nice and can get busy on a busy night. Wanted to highlight to go to breakfast for the breakfast tacos. They are big, and I can usually just finish one. Choice of bacon, ham or sausage to go with eggs and cheese and toppings. Still a good price. read more

Small town good stuff! I always stop here to eat when visiting G'ville, their breakfast is so good, as is the service we've always received. Friendly folk - sure thing, no one's in a hurry, it's your chance to slow down a bit & relax. Brayden (sp?) was repeatedly on top of it all, excellent level of service. Great menu offering - I get food here that I don't normally order at home. They also work well with small-to-large parties, just tell them what you need in advance & they will work it out with you. read more

BLT was very delicious. The ranch was the star of the show for me. Good service, decorated very nicely.

Good food, great atmosphere! I drive 45 mins regularly to eat here! Owner is good people and so very friendly! Very cool metal art pieces for sale around the restaurant and small craft shop up front to browse as well! Elvis fans always welcome as there is a bunch of memorabilia to look at as well! read more

The waitress tried to seat us in a bar stool. When I told her my 90 year old mother couldn't sit in one she developed an attitude. She sat us in an area where most if the tables were dirty. Ours had sticky napkin holder and something sticky in the table. It took her 10 minutes to come get our order for food. We got no utensils and i refuse to drink without a straw. Our french fries were cool. But the rest was done well. We waited 17 minutes before we asked another waitress for our ticket. We never got refills ir even checked on. My plate had a huge quarter size chip in it. The fans are filthy. read more

-I go here all the time. In fact everyone there knows me because I grew up there. Everyone is the sweetest. I've never really met a person. There wasn't an absolute doll. And most everyone is pretty quick some people say they're slow, but I'm pretty sure they're just impatient. It's always busy around lunchtime. The food is great for a small town. It's basic but it's classic. It has absolutely anything you could want and the sides there is absolutely so many classic Texas dishes. if you like Elvis Presley, claw machines, cowboys, and Marilyn Monroe-then this is most definitely the place for you. The ambience is quite random and extremely fun you could never run out of things to play I spy which to me IS GREAT! It gets pretty loud though because on Wednesdays, the lion club meets and it's just a bunch of random old loud people singing, and talking about the community which valid! So come around one on Wednesdays if you don't want to have a noisy lunch-and definitely try the patty melt or fried Oreos! read more

The food was okay, the water had a weird taste, and the table was super shaky. I got the fried Oreos as a desert and they were amazing! The service was good. And the room had a good atmosphere. Overall I would recommend!!! read more

We arrived at 10:45. Staff totally ignored us until it was too late to order breakfast. When we asked about ordering breakfast she said they stopped serving breakfast 5 minutes ago. Won't be back.! read more

We have passed this place numerous times, this time we had time to stop. Boy were we glad we did!! It won't be our last time, that's for sure. Loved the place, food was fabulous, great staff always ready to take care of us. Our server was Cloie, such a polite and attentive young lady. Down to the bathroom, clean and love the detail in the decor. read more

Sorry, I didn't take a picture, but I had the best chicken sandwich. It was grilled chicken and cheese, bacon, jalapeños, and grilled onions. It's one of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had.!! read more

Wednesday night arrived around 7pm. On immediate entrance you're overwhelmed by the aesthetic. Decorations are over the top and fun. I love the Elvis wall! Tables are clean. There are elevated floors with steps. They have outdoor seating but I didn't sit out there. The bar is huge but it doesn't look like they have a lot back there to drink. 3/5 Ordered the Monster Balls for an appetizer. Split the four between two of us. They're like a baked potato on steroids. So good! 5/5 The Elvis Burger was good, not great. Couldn't really taste the pimento cheese but the bacon was great. 3/5. Bad Ass fries were bland. No seasoning. 1/5. Burger, tea, sweet potato fries, and half the Monster balls equals $22.00. read more

Walk in to an old time feel with old chandeliers on the ceiling. It was a comfortable environment. Some nice music playing over the speakers. Sat quickly. Food came pretty quickly as well. I had a Ham and Cheese omelet. It was severed with Toast and Hash browns. My husband had a full stack. The food tasted great. The service was okay. Our server wasn't as attentive as we are used too, but thats okay. She still eventually get everything we asked. Overall I would recommend the visit. read more

Drinks were great. Food was excellent. Our waiter was attentive and always kept our drinks filled and on top of our appetizers and food. Very fun environment and the chips are great! read more

Well the restaurant was clean , the service left something to be desired . Our server was in a rush and answered a question we had as she walked away . So we didn't get what we needed . The appetizer sampler was the smallest portion I've ever seen . Not worth the money and the food wasn't very good read more

Ate there today and whoever the lady in the pink shirt and the young lady in the MaMa sweatshirt and black baseball cap deserved all the other waitstaff's tips as they were all sitting around a barrel table in front of the kitchen on their phones and picking on one another! Which is why our waitress took so long to come take our order! read more

We've been passing by this -lace for years but never stopped in. Well, this time we were traveling south looking for something off w6 to eat. We were pulling our rv so needed to fit a rig about 60 feet long overall. I can say they are indeed big rig friend;y! We go in and notice all the chandeliers hanging adding a cool vibe to a otherwise rustic joint. But how about the food? I had the catfish and hand cut fries - both fantastic. They offer about r\e-r type fries such as curly.... Just go with the hand cut. Fish was cooked through - maybe a tinge dry but still moist inside. My wife had the buffalo chicken salad. Good buffalo seasoning letting you know what ya ordered. I think we'll make this a regular stop now! read more

I've come here several times and I'm usually disappointed, the service is horrible and the food is mediocre. The building is a really cool place and it's a neat spot to hang out and drink with friends. read more

Well after dropping off cows for the Cornell Auction nearby we stopped in for breakfast last Saturday. They did not disappoint. I had biscuits and gravy with home style fries. Good Eats. Will return for the waffle next time. Or maybe the Migas. read more

The food was pretty good served quickly with that being said for nearly $2.60 a beverage I would have expected a refill with on my beverage we did have a party of 7 but there was only 4 others in restaurant .... maybe because it was Monday and everything else is closed today I still tipped well $4.00 + on a 12 dollar meal right at 30% but still no refills read more

Everything I have ever eaten here is fabulous! Sweet tea is amazing and the service is stellar. Today I had their specialty burger and ribbon fries...simply scrumptious! The prices are reasonable also. My only request...buy longer straws and everything would be absolutely perfect! read more

Had breakfast here on a Saturday morning when they first opened the doors. We were seated quickly and our waitress was friendly and accommodating. We ordered coffee which arrived promptly, along with a tall glass of water. The coffee here is terrible. Seriously.. My wife had a biscuit with gravy, a slice of bacon and hash browns. She said the gravy was bland, flavorless and was not good. I had three pancakes with a slab of grilled ham. The ham was good and typical of the fare. The pancakes were sweet and tasty enough, but nothing to write home about. What I had issue with was the butter and syrup. I couldn't bring myself to put the "whipped spread" on my pancakes because it's made from vegetable oil, palm oil and soybean oil... and "liquid". Liquid what?? There was no butter, there wasn't even margarine. Just this nasty stuff. And the "syrup"? The first two ingredients: Corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup. Pass. I may revisit this place for a lunch or supper meal, but I'll likely pass on breakfast here from now on. read more

Line to long customer service terrible. Place should put outside heaters hire more help.

Cold beer but that's about it. Food was all frozen and fried. Nothing special. Always cars in the parking lot but I'm guessing they come there for the alcohol. The atmosphere is nice. This place has real promise, they need from scratch cooking then it will be a hit. read more

The food here sucks, salty, and bland. Oh, and if you have more than three people they're going to add $10+ as a tip what's going on in America tipping is a choice not an obligation.!!! specially, if the waiter never even comes to check on, you definitely doesn't deserve a tip! read more

Consistently good food and service. It's where the locals go. It's got a rustic/ Elvis theme that keeps you interested.

Food was good but most servers were rude, and forced gratuity without warning. We were gonna tip, absolutely was gonna tip, server was decent, but when we ask about it they say "oh it'll hit your card later". Ridiculous, will never be coming back. Ticket was $28 with tax, and my card was charged for $34 before tip. If there is a forced gratuity just let people know, not that hard. read more

I'd give it a 3.5 if they let me. It was pretty good. Hubby really liked the ck fried chicken and the monster balls. The steak fingers were a bit tough and service was pretty slow. But the fries and ranch were homemade and good. I really like the "bottle caps" fried jalapeños! We'd probably come back and try something different. read more

This is my first visit to this location. I was in town for meetings and was taken by an associate. The food is good. I had the grilled shrimp and a frozen margarita. I also had the fried Oreos. This desert was delicious. Be warned it is a drive from the main city and it seems like it is in the middle of nowhere. I visited during the late evening hours. The atmosphere was pleasant. I would revisit again when I have the time. read more

Have eaten here twice so far and plan to return. Had a very good chicken fried steak and for breakfast had the breakfast burrito. It was huge. The waitress asked if I wanted one or two. She said they were pretty big when I asked. I'm glad I went with one. Coffee is good and service is excellent. Nice decor. read more

Food was pretty good overall, but the steak fingers were a little over cooked and the hand cut fries a little undercooked. Nice service though. read more

Love the food but the service can be horrible at times. For example; today we were seated but after 15 minutes of watching our server do all sorts of busy work we left. I don't think we'll be coming back since that's the third time we've had bad service. read more

Says they are open but they told me they aren't. I don't recommend any place that lies or close early. And sign still on.

The atmosphere was nice! Having said that, I ordered their popular chicken fried chicken and it was less than stellar. The meal was frozen and fried, so yes it was dry and soaked with gravy. I wasn't impressed with the chicken nearly as much as I was with the onion rings. That was delicious! read more

I'm local and have been invited to eat here several times over the years. I usually try to talk my way out of it..but i try to be optimistic and think "maybe this time the food will be good" I've never eaten a meal here i liked. The food is just not good. There's just no way to put it. Philly boy good. Bad ass fries (maybe it was kick ass) not sure those not so good either. CFS is meh. read more
