There's a mural on the wall (it's really large) of Texas music icons, and it's a sight to see. And then above the bar is the shape of Texas with musical instruments in it. It's another great piece of art to behold while you eat your lunch. I had the mushroom burger and I really enjoyed it. It was cooked perfectly and their house made mayo really sets the stage for the taste! I also got their garlic and parmesan fries are the star of the show. Soooooo good! And the house made dipping sauce - mmmmm good! Our waiter was great! I met a friend and we were catching up on time instead of looking at the menu, and he was very patient with us. He checked on us several times to make sure we had what we needed. Just a really good experience!

This is why my rating is only based on the food quality. Brisket and Queso $10 Smoked brisket, Dr. Pepper BBQ sauce, cilantro. A little too high for an appetizer, but the queso and brisket were good. I wasn't a fan of the sauce, the sweetness was a clash for me. The chips were also way too salty. The house salad $14 was an XL salad for sure! Everything was so good and fresh. They kindly brought me extra cheese and grilled jalapeños. The ranch was just right too! Downside: my patty was over-seasoned and overcooked. My partner purchased their most basic burger, the Waylon $12, the fries are sold separately. This burger was small, and once again, the patty itself was a disappointment. Texas sun cocktail was refreshing but just a simple pineapple and vodka mix.

My wife's favorite ice cream store is next door to this place and she asked me to pick up a couple of shakes for her and her friend, so I grabbed a burger while I waited for their shakes. Choosing one thing was tough. On their menu we're Pizzas, Burgers, Sandwiches, Nachos, Loaded Fries, Salads, and more. But I figured, that old adage of "When in Rome", so I ordered the Loophole Burger. It was a "Wowza"!! The Fries were really good too. I am not even a Fries guy, but I ate them all! Ezekiel, the server, was fantastic. He even gave me suggestion for my next visit, which I am going to try. The ambiance here is really neat. It is in an old brick building and is kind of split level inside. Think antique brick & really old hard wood stairs and you will begin to understand the historic presence of this place. I can't wait to come back!

From the moment we walked in until the end of our evening, the experience was absolutely exceptional. We were warmly greeted by the hostess and host, both of whom wished us a happy anniversary and immediately escorted us to our table. To our surprise, the table had been beautifully decorated with rose petals such a thoughtful and special touch that instantly set the tone for the evening. Our server, Adam, greeted us shortly after and walked us through the specials, again wishing us a happy anniversary. We ordered a special appetizer, the octopus, steak, fresh bread, and margaritas. Everything was incredibly delicious. The margaritas especially impressed me I'm not a big drinker and tend to be very picky about cocktails, but it was perfectly balanced and so enjoyable. Throughout our meal, we were checked on regularly, both by our server and by the owner, Phil. Adam went above and beyond to ensure our drinks were always full and that we had everything we needed. It was also wonderful to see Phil personally checking on guests, clearing plates, and staying actively involved in the dining room. It's rare to see an owner so hands-on and genuinely engaged with customers. We finished the evening with crème brûlée for dessert, which was absolutely amazing and such a generous surprise when it was gifted to us in celebration of our anniversary. The entire night felt thoughtful, personal, and memorable. Outstanding food, exceptional service, and an owner who truly cares. We will absolutely be returning and highly recommend Hannah's for any special occasion.

The 5 grain risotto was creamy, the seasoned veggies had the perfect bite to them. The fish was perfect cooked. My mother had the BLT. That thing was STACKED with thick cut perfectly crispy bacon. My son and his girlfriend each had the hot honey chicken sandwich and the Nashville hot chicken. HUGE pieces of chicken, perfectly cooked and again, theme of the night, zero complaints.

I sat down and the 2 minutes later the bartender greeted me and asked for my order, very friendly. I place it and she asked me if I wanted something to drink, which was very nice. On to the plate I ordered the 2 meat plate and decided on double brisket with slaw. I'm rated this plate 3 stars because the brisket didn't taste smoked and it was tough. The slaw is a little on the sweet side and chips were hard and soft at the same time. The bbq sauce that came with this plate was the best part of this plate. Will I go back? Yes because they have a full menu of things to try but I probably won't try the brisket again.

To be clear, I celebrate the Denton fusion; it's one of my fave things about gems like Picone & Komodo Loco- the cuisine cannot be found anywhere else. Picone's chicken cutlets = mind blowing. The Piccata is my fave, but you really can't go wrong with any of their chicken parms. Their menu is fairly simple - no Cheesecake Factory novel to read. Check their website because they change their menu frequently. I love that they do this. Many things are staples but I've never been mad for choosing something new. Besides piccata, my partner likes the smash burger. I love the burnt carrots. Their focaccia pizza was outstanding. We like the potatoes and the Cesar salad, but they're outshined by the rest of the menu so we rarely get them. My recommendation: get a chicken parm of your choosing & one of their specials. Then share with one of your peeps. (The cutlets are the size of your head). Now let's talk staff and service. I have never ever had bad service there & have thoroughly enjoyed all interactions with staff. I feel like everyone really likes being there & cares about what they do. Go in with joy and joy will be returned to you. Ambiance: You order at the counter when you walk in. They'll give you a number and you sit wherever. It's super-casual, kinda small-ish hole-in-the-wall in the best way. It's always been doing a brisk business when we've gone. Be aware that the back room can get loud because of acoustics so keep that in mind if you're sensitive to it. There is limited onsite parking, but ton of street parking all around. I think that covers it. :) Enjoy!!

People seemed to love Picone, so we went! Interesting place. Small and casual. There is a counter at the front, and on the counter is a board which shows the menu. We were told we could take a picture of the menu with our phones, sit down and peruse it, or just go ahead and order. We ordered, were given a number card to place on our table, and the food was brought to us. MIL and I got the chicken parm, and SIL got the chicken piccata. SIL and I thought our meals were delicious. MIL said her chicken was overcooked and she didn't enjoy it. (She also didn't like that there were no printed menus, but she's 87 and likes things how she likes them.) The chicken parm comes with "Sunday Sauce," which they told me is marinara. To me, it was spicier than marinara, and I really liked it. The portions were very large, and I took most of my food home with me. I didn't notice if they offered desserts or not. In Boston we have great Italian food, and I hadn't found that in Denton - until now. This was surprisingly good food and I would definitely return.

You walk through a tiny, almost hidden door, head up a long stairwell, and suddenly you're in this moody, library-style space that feels equal parts speakeasy and literary hideout. It's intimate, dimly lit, and full of character. The cocktails are where this place really shines. The Homemade Smoking Jacket is a standout -- smoky, balanced, and thoughtfully crafted. The espresso martini was also excellent: smooth, bold, and not overly sweet. You can tell they take their cocktail program seriously. Why four stars instead of five? It's small and can feel tight when busy, and you may need a little patience depending on the crowd. But honestly, that's part of the charm.
