Wonderful restaurant for the price. You'll feel like you've traveled back in time, as the…read moreatmosphere has a 1970s or 1980s steakhouse/roadhouse vibe to it. Food was very good, and less expensive than most restaurants with similar menu items. Service was great too - waitresses were very attentive and the fact that we had small children wasn't a bother. There were many families with kids in the restaurant as well. 2 adults and 1 kid meal with drinks came out under $50 (before tip), which is pretty unheard of in 2025 with inflation and all! Most importantly, we were stuffed! If we're ever in the area again, this will be our first pick for a meal!

We recently moved to the area and wanted to try a local steakhouse for Father's Day, so we decided…read moreto give WB Steakhouse a try and we're glad we did! The food was excellent, especially for the price. I ordered the 14 oz. ribeye, and my wife had the 8 oz. filet. Both steaks were cooked perfectly and came with two sides, making for a great value. The house bread was delicious, and the drinks were equally enjoyable. From the food to the service, everything exceeded our expectations. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the overall experience was outstanding. We were very pleased with the quality, service, and reasonable prices, and we'll definitely be back to work our way through the rest of the menu.

My family really wanted to like this place because the other 2 locations are awesome but idk about this one. We waited over 5 min in an empty dining room to get just are drinks ordered then 5 min later a different waitress came to take our order only problem was we never got menus and our soda order was even wrong. This place has gotten food orders wrong drink orders wrong and then they never come by to check on u so u never have an opportunity to correct them. Maybe higher people that don't live around the lake because it just seams that they can't get anything right.

Stopped in Saturday afternoon for lunch and were pleasantly surprised with this place…read more He got a spicy margarita and liked it. I had the bbq burger and it was pretty good. The fries were hot and crispy. They didn't ask how I wanted my burger cooked, which is the only let down. He had wicked grilled chicken sandwich and it was overall good. But not hot. And the chicken was pounded out really flat, which was the let down. Onion rings are really just extremely thin onions in a thick batter. Good crisp and flavor if that's the kind of onion ring you want. Menu was huge. Looking forward to going back and trying something else. Service was pretty good. Didn't catch her name though. I get annoyed that I don't have the opportunity to check that I was charged correctly. That being said, I was.

GENERAL MANAGEMENT FIRED AN EMPLOYEE UNJUSTLY. HARASSED AND TOUCHED BY CALLYE SPENCE. Her decision…read moreto confront a terminated employee at the exit door to continue a verbal altercation is a severe violation of professionalism that directly caused the situation to escalate. She completely bypassed Brinker's mandatory progressive discipline policy, firing him on a first offense after only about one month of employment. His record is completely clean, and he even has physical recognition cards from his official corporate trainer explicitly praising his performance and work ethic during his onboarding. He was a strong, compliant employee. (My statement) Never in the time that I've worked at chilis, more than a year, has a busser carried a broom and a buss tub. No one has done that since I've worked there. The exact way this employee has done bussing is how I've been doing it and not once has the GENERAL MANAGER reprimanded me like she did him. Even still, he didn't deserve to be fired because he didn't say ok and walked away to do the work you wanted him to. He stayed and listened to what you said. She tapped him on the shoulder and told him to clock out. Nor that he deserved to be fired for trying to finish his cut work and not screw over his fellow employees. I've heard nothing but good things about this employee since he's started working. How's he's a hard worker and tries his best. Mind you he's new. Working for maybe a month. You told him to clock out. Typically I would also assume I need to do my cut work too before I leave. Due to this unfortunately I will not be returning to Athens chilis in the future. Which is unfortunate because the other employees there are so amazing.

We went on barbeque Wednesday. On the menu was smoked ribs, leg quarters and sausage . Very cheesy mac and cheese , potato salad , baked beans , green beans , corn on the cob and corn bread . Of course they have sweet tea ! The desserts were pecan cobbler, peach cobbler, strawberry cake, and German chocolate cake. Last but not least is excellent , friendly staff. We were made welcome from the moment we walked in . They are a happy family that are proud of their food and restaurant. I highly recommend a drive to Athens Texas .

When she gave us the food all of our sides were turned on their sides, we get home and we realize that our 12 piece mix is all DARK meat and burnt, not sure what the point of the employee making us recite our entire order to her was if they were still going to get it wrong. Trash service and trash quality.
