This place operates on a tab-based system, so no need to wait for a check, since the tab is opened for you before you're seated. This worked very smoothly! This would be a great place for a date or anything requiring an aesthetically pleasing ambiance, the wood lining and ceiling along with the blackboard menu give this place a great vibe.

Had my heart set on it, saw that they had shrimp so asked if they'd make shrimp tacos. They did. Absolutely delicious with lettuce, some kind of delicious sauce and sliced avocados. I told them they needed to add it to the menu! My granddaughter ordered a Caesar salad with chicken and sliced avocado. She loved it and said the dressing was fantastic. The waiter was great, obviously accommodating, excellent service. The atmosphere was quiet, beautifully decorated, bright, light. It's a bar with large windows - my kind of place. We were their first customers for the day. I'd imagine it would be a great place for a romantic dinner or hanging out with friends. If I ever get back to the area, I'd go there again. Can't tell you about the wine or beer or drinks.

From there, go grab yourself a drink and a table. She texts you when your food is ready and you pick up at the same place you ordered. Our wait was kinda long and I'm completely okay with that. She's by herself making your food when you order it so it's worth the wait. LPL is a very relaxed place that has good music and a large vinyl collection so even if the wait is long, it's still a good time. The pastry on the pastelito was perfectly flaky and the boudin filling was the right proportion of meat and rice. The fried chicken thigh was excellent, with a nice thick crust and very juicy meat. The red beans and rice had good flavor and enough meat to satisfy. It tastes great with the cornbread. Pro tip: order a second thigh. You won't regret it. all the flowers for Five O Four

We walked from our hotel and were greeted with so much warmth right away. We were seated instantly and had the sweetest server, Sarah, who was incredibly helpful and attentive the entire time! They started us off with popcorn which was such a fun first lol. We ordered the Brussels sprouts appetizer and they were absolutely delicious! My husband got the chicken & waffles with a side of eggs & bacon, and I ordered the chicken fried steak from the lunch menu. Both plates were AMAZING... seriously some of the best food we've had! Then they brought out cornbread and omg... SO good. This place became such a staple of our trip and we already can't wait to come back. There's just something special about finding a cute restaurant with incredible food and even better service. Definitely one of those places that leaves you wanting more!

Friendly staff overall. The food fell flat for almost all of us. The salads were fresh and good. However, the ribs were below average. Cornbread was stale and not tasty. Biscuits tasted more like firm bread and not at all flaky/soft. That seemed weird to all of us. Chicken fried steak was soggy and not crispy. Drinks were ok. Not quite sure why the food was subpar, but there were 10 of us who all agreed we wouldn't return for food. There is a swanky little cozy speakeasy in the basement that may be good? We didn't try that.

Menu offerings (my faves but obviously more stuff available): Thai chicken sandwich (sweet chili sauce, basil, Serranos, onion, etc.). Chicken strips & fries. Smashburger. Tiger fries. Food descriptions: OMFries, the Tiger fries! Have got to be my favorite item. Loaded fries with an egg (sunny side), queso, pickles, bbq sauce, onion, Serranos and more. The Thai chicken sandwich blows my mind with epic seasoning, chicken cooked to perfection, all on a perfectly textured bun. The chicken strips are cooked to a glorious golden brown housing the juiciest meat inside. Everything pairs nicely with any and all cocktails offered at Whisler's.

You can really taste the love that went into all this food. This is a food truck right across from HEB mueller in that swimming pool parking lot. She's only open on the weekends and her food can be ordered on DoorDash but she has more menu items in person than on DoorDash. I online ordered and picked up 3 different orders. 2 of them were not ready and she had me wait in my car and she brought them out to me so I didn't melt in the heat. Now the important stuff the menu... Ok who knew you could fry ribs?!?! They were on point. 4 to an order. Ribs were still moist, the batter had a crunch, and the meat fell off the bone. The dirty rice was the best dirty rice I've ever eaten. It was loaded up with seafood The smothered pork chops were 2 to an order and 2 sides served on a bed of white rice. Also very moist and great flavor, the Mac n cheese was not runny which I personally hate when it's just a runny mess, the fried cabbage also had a great flavor and it was still crunchy. The jerk chicken had great flavor but it was ordered as mild (not by me) and it definitely needed the heat/spice,the jumbalaya side was also tasty We also got the hot Cheetos boudin balls (I forgot to take a picture) they were huge and not spicy at first bite the heat sneaks up on you. The strawberry crunch cake was a big slice and reminded me of strawberry cake doughnut but that banana pudding was also probably the best banana pudding I've ever eaten. I felt all the portions were huge and prices were fair. This definitely not a food truck to sleep on. I've been told she makes great oxtails but they sell out fast.
