Stopped into The District in Midlothian after a long afternoon of house shopping with my husband…read moreand sister because nothing fuels real estate decisions like hunger, dreams and hope. The place was fully booked, but the hostess saved the day and offered us lounge seating on the sofas. Honestly, it felt a little VIP...like we'd accidentally wandered into the cool kids' corner. I halfway considered putting on my sunglasses indoors just to commit to the moment, maybe even asking if they offered bottle service in the lounge. Within 10 minutes we were settled in and already getting excellent service. And as if the vibe wasn't good enough, there was a one‑man show crooning jazzy tunes in the background. He was smooth, talented, and added just the right soundtrack for an early dinner. Think "speakeasy energy," but suburban‑friendly. Now, the food. My husband ordered the Crunchy Pig sandwich, my sister went for the half rack of ribs, and I claimed the smoked turkey BLT. Everything hit the table about 20 minutes later, hot, fresh, and so lip‑smacking tasty that we inhaled every bite before remembering we meant to take pictures. My apologies to the food‑photo purists; trust me, the plates were camera‑ready before we destroyed them. If you find yourself wandering around The District in Midlothian, do yourself a righteous favor and grab a memorable meal here. Great food, great service, great music, and apparently great sofas.

I placed an online order through their website for the following: Two (2) 3-piece fried chicken wing dinners with two sides each, priced at $9.99 each as advertised online One (1) catfish dinner Shortly after submitting my order, I received a phone call from a representative stating that I had been undercharged. I was told the online price was an error and that the wings were actually supposed to be $17.99 each, not the price listed on their own website. They wanted to recharge me an additional amount for a price that was not advertised online. I was honestly shocked. I paid exactly what their website reflected at the time of purchase. After speaking with a manager, I was told I had only two options: pay the upcharge or receive a full refund. I chose the refund. What was most disappointing is that the restaurant did not honor their advertised price, even though the mistake was theirs--not mine. I did not argue or request they honor the price because I don't feel comfortable having food prepared when there is already a disagreement or questionable business practice involved. As a result, I've placed Ida Mae's on my "do not dine" list. I believe in fair and honest business practices, and this experience fell short of that standard.

Hala has a gift that simply can't be manufactured -- the ability to make every guest feel genuinely seen and welcomed from the moment they walk through the door. She knows her regulars. She reads the room. She consistently goes above and beyond in a way that never feels performative or transactional -- it just feels like care. The food would be delicious anywhere. But Hala turns a great restaurant into a place people actually want to come back to. She's the reason Cork & Pig isn't just where we eat -- it's where we gather as a family.

Tupelo Honey is a southern style restaurant chain that serves comfort food in a casual setting…read more They recently refreshed their menu, and they have become one of my favorite casual lunch spots in Irving-Las Colinas. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Tupelo Honey is a stand-alone restaurant conveniently located near Hwy 114 and 161. There's plenty of parking, outdoor seating, and a mixture of tables, booths, and bar seating. Speaking of the bar, it acts as a beautiful backdrop for the entire restaurant. 1 Star. Service - The service is always friendly. Our server is always smiling, and I can't help but feel welcome with southern charm. Tupelo Honey trains its staff well, and I really enjoy coming here and interacting with the staff. 1 Star. Food - I always begin with the Biscuits with a Cause. These light, flakey biscuits are served warm with a crispy exterior and soft, flakey inside. But honestly, the biscuits act as a delivery mechanism for the butter and blue berry jam. I always ask for an extra side of butter and jam because I use it all. On my most recent visit, I ordered the Honey Dusted Fried Chicken (dark). The chicken was perfectly fried, crispy, and sweet. And the dark meat was juicy. Pro Tips - use your hands. Another great dish was experienced. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. I have yet to have a below average dish at Tupelo Honey. Yes, it's a chain. But it's also a darn good chain that keeps its menu fresh and is worth multiple visits. 1 Star.

They did seem a little busy and I believe there may have been a shift change at some point. It took us 15 mins to get a table outside. I will add the wait time is the only bummer in my experience.

Southern shakshuka. $15.99 two eggs* baked in a tomato, spinach, & peperonata sauce, over stone-ground goat cheese grits, topped with basil (710 cal) - This combo was good, loved the creaminess and even had leftovers for the next day.

The buttermilk Waffles were fluffy and light and full bite with the drizzled syrup was everything. Enjoyed the flavors of the whiskey flight and happy you have the flavor cards to be able to give the tasting a proper review. Over all price is average in comparison but the food quality is there so I have no issue spending an extra dollar or so. I would like to stop by again when it's less busy.

4 Stars? I'll tell ya why…read more Good old country cooking just like grandma used to make. I was genuinely impressed that a small town like Godley, Texas is home to a restaurant with this level of comfort, charm, and quality. The hometown feel greets you the moment you walk through the door, and the aroma of chicken fried steak, gravy, biscuits, and brisket makes it clear you are in for a hearty, satisfying meal. Pros: Location - It is tucked just off the main road which makes it easy to find and convenient to access whether you are a local or simply passing through Price - The pricing is more than fair, especially considering the portion sizes and the scratch made quality of the food. You get a true value driven dining experience rather than inflated big city prices Quantity - Portions are generous without feeling overdone. Plates are filled with enough food to leave you satisfied, and in many cases you will have leftovers to take home Cons: Flies - The country setting brings a challenge with flies occasionally making their way into the dining area. Staff does their best to manage it but it is something to be aware of, especially during warmer months Parking - Street parking is limited and can become difficult when the restaurant is busy. You may need to walk a bit depending on the time of day Groups - While cozy and inviting, the dining space is not ideal for large parties. Anything over eight guests may find it a challenge to sit together comfortably Despite these minor drawbacks, I will absolutely be returning. This restaurant is a gem for anyone who appreciates authentic country cooking and a welcoming small town atmosphere. If you find yourself anywhere near Godley, it is definitely worth stopping in.
