    First this place is nice, new, and clean. It's modern but also welcoming in overall environment…read more But that's the least important part. The staff is very nice and checks on you consistently throughout your meal. The food is spectacular. I can't say enough about it, the food is great, the salads are huge, and you'll never have an empty glass. I'd give more stars if i could. Overall I'll certainly be back!

    1st off, Get your Financial Advisor to approve your meal here, was 70 bucks for 1 app and 2 lunch…read moreentrees.. you have been warned.... Had lunch at Downtown Eats on Friday, and I really wanted to love this place. Unfortunately, the service was five-star, but the food took a wrong turn somewhere along the way. Our server was fantastic--friendly, attentive, and on top of everything. No complaints whatsoever there. We started with the hush puppies, although calling them hush puppies might be underselling their size. These things were like hush dogs. They were enormous and supposedly had crab and shrimp in them, but unfortunately, both the crab and shrimp must have been on vacation because we couldn't taste either one. They were fried, but somehow not crunchy, which made the whole thing a little confusing. The remoulade was decent, but at $12-$13 for the appetizer, I expected a little more excitement and maybe some crunch. For lunch, my wife had the Shrimp tacos and I had the Korean tacos. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what happened with the tacos. They were essentially slaw tacos, which is an interesting concept... just not one either of us was particularly interested in eating. Neither of us finished our meals. And that's probably the best way to describe the experience: everything seemed like it was just a couple of streets over from being really good. The service was excellent, the atmosphere was pleasant, and maybe we simply caught them on an off day. But unfortunately, the food missed the mark for us. Service: 5 Food: 2 Overall: 2 1/2 I'd give Downtown Eats another shot because the service was that good. But next time, I may bring a map and see if we can get the food those last couple of streets closer to good. Our name for Downtown Eats until next time is OK Eats.

    Really outstanding time here. Recommended…read more Two minor griefs, then the great stuff: 1) Not a huge deal, but this place can be hard to get in and out of. It has one entrance, shared with an old folks' home, and no light. Depending on the time of day, turning left out of the entrance is a nightmare, and sometimes turning right is, too, because of the volume of traffic. 2) They use those little tablets on the tables, so when you pay with your credit card, you can't always get a paper receipt, which I like. Speaking of the tablets, some of the tables are in places where you can't see a TV, which is plenty fine by me; most of the TVs are around the bar, so it's nice to sit with my family with no distractions. Food was delicious. I got ribs, and they literally did fall off the bone when I pick them up to try to eat them; ended up using my fork quite a bit. Again, that's a compliment. Excellent service. I had Suarez, and I recommend him. Very friendly; anticipated my needs before I had them; he brought me extra wet-naps for those ribs, extra condiments, extra drinks, and all without me ever asking for a thing. When he packed up my to-go items, he stacked them in the bag neatly so they wouldn't spill or everything. Sophia, the manager, also came around. Good portion size with the food. They were generous with their rolls and cinnamon butter both. Fantastic sweet potato; great side and recommended. They do have a to-go pick-up window that I saw numerous people use. Very impressed with this location. Recommended.

    Texas Roadhouse opened near us a few months ago and we finally got a chance to try it. Here are my…read morethoughts; The good: The call ahead waitlist worked great! The place is clean. The staff is efficient and friendly. The food is fresh and tasty. The menu is well rounded. Portion sizes are healthy. Paying on the kiosk at the table was easy. Things to know: It was very crowded (thus the appreciation and need for the call ahead). It was loud - we could still carry on a conversation, but it was loud. I ordered my steak medium well and it was a little dry , but still had a good flavor. Overall, we had a good experience and will definitely be back!
