Saw the reviews. Decided to try lunch specials to get a feel of the place. No table service. You go in and order at the counter. You seat yourself. Get your own drink and refill. Fine by me. Got the lunch burgers and fries with soda. Burgers were made fresh and fries were hot and crispy. Everything was fine but nothing special - nothing stood out but nothing went wrong too. (Except my wife requested onions on a couple burgers and they forgot them- but she went to the counter and they gave her some) we also tried to fried mushrooms- they were fine. But nothing memorable and we try to try the mushrooms at all restaurants we find it on the menu.

Burnt kids meal

Visited on a Sunday evening and left super disappointed. Our family of 5 ordered two daily specials and three kid meals around 7pm and didn't get our food until 7:36pm. The restaurant wasn't overly busy (more than half the tables weren't being taken but every single free one was covered with trash and sticky). We had to ask to have a table cleaned off so our kids could sit. Even after waiting for so long, and asking twice, the kids meals were super lackluster. The chicken was tiny and the burger bun was burnt. To top it all off, the fries weren't cooked through. Probably wouldn't head here for a nice family meal again.

My spicy chicken sandwich looked like. Even asked the waitress and showed her, but she was insistent that that's how it comes.

Well don't put two small things burnt pieces of chicken and sell it as a spicy chicken sandwich. And don't gaslight your customers when they show what it looks like.

The first thing I noticed about Babe's Burger was how catering and attentive the employees were. They really made sure our sandwiches came out exactly the way we wanted with the right modifications. My partner took me here for a date, and we ordered the fried pickles and two #5 classic old-fashioned burgers. Let me just say those were the BEST fried pickles I've ever had! The burgers were juicy with just the right amount of flavor, and the whole vibe of the place gave me that cozy, old-fashioned feel as soon as I walked in. Such a great experience, can't wait to come back!

Bacon cheeseburger, tots and a beer.

Burger was great! Service was ok. Tables were dirty, there were food baskets on almost every table.

Two Quarter pound burgers with fires and soda

The burgers will definitely fill you up, if you can finish it. Well portion of fries and unlimited drinks. Burger tastes just like any other burger and the fries had a little seasoning. Besides getting your food to your table, everything is pretty much self serve. Plenty of space to accommodate large parties of lots of friends.

Cheeseburger burnt edges and bun!

We ordered two cheeseburgers, a small tot and some adult beverages. The burger came out burnt along and 1/4 into the edges of the patty and the top bun was burnt to the point that it had to be pulled off. There was packed house as a party of 20 came in right behind us so, I dissected what was salvageable to eat. Before leaving, I took up the center cut out meat patty and the charred bun to the manager (who was doing the cooking) and just explained that we didn't want anything except for them to think before they serve food like this again! All I asked was would you serve this to your family? She quickly said no- took it from me and said we'll try harder. Try? How about we will do better! With quality beyond poor, I have to say we can't wait until TWIN BROS opens up! Shame on Babes for having zero pride in their quality!

Babe's Old Fashioned in Helotes satisfied my craving with its delicious food and cookies n cream shake. The BLT with mushroom and tots were so good. It wasn't too loud during lunch so I was able to get work done as well. Thanks Babe's!

At the Bandera location and it's pretty sad. You've only got two guys in the kitchen. The dining room is packed lots of to go orders and it's taking forever. Where is the ownership? They should be in here helping at times like this. I'm sure pay has something to do with it. Pay your people more your through put what improve and you'd make more money. I have watched multiple people come in the door see the crazy and walk out.

Great burger ready fast!
Eric F.

I have to put this above fast food classification, but compared to other fast casual places it offers a limited menu with lots of customization options. I can imagine that a young family would be served well here on a family night out. I like the fries, burgers are better than most, and come "to order".

If you're looking for a place that feels less like a restaurant and more like you just walked into…read moresomebody's home after church on a Sunday... this is it. From the moment we stepped into 6 Klicks Cafe, the vibe was immediate--warm, welcoming, and real. Not forced, not corporate. Just genuine energy. The kind of place where you already know you're about to eat good before you even see the menu. The Food I ordered the grilled chicken marsala, and they didn't just throw it on a plate--they presented it. Everything looked intentional. * Chicken cooked perfectly * Sauce was on point * Mashed potatoes? Had me wanting the recipe after one bite * Green beans with sausage and onion--straight comfort food I also tried the chicken tenders, fries, and Texas toast--everything was done right. Crispy where it needed to be, flavorful across the board. Portion size? Let's be real, it felt like they made the plate for two people. ________________________________________ ‍ Service Service was top-tier. * Greeted immediately * Server knew the menu and helped us decide * Drinks came fast (shoutout to that blackberry tea ) * Food came out in under 10 minutes No waiting, no confusion, no "let me check on that" energy. Just smooth. ________________________________________ Atmosphere This place has identity. It's not trying to be trendy--it's authentic. You can feel the story behind it. Veteran-owned, patriotic, and built with intention. It's the kind of spot where you could sit, eat, and talk for hours without feeling rushed. Family vibe all day. ________________________________________ Price vs Value Not the cheapest--but worth it. When the portions are big, the food is made right, and the experience is solid... the price makes sense. ________________________________________ Final Verdict 10/10 (with no real complaints) This isn't just somewhere you eat. This is somewhere you go when you want real food, real service, and a real atmosphere. I'll definitely be back I'd recommend it without hesitation Not a one-and-done spot--this is a regular rotation type place

Wife enjoyed her garden salad but for $10 seemed slightly pricey. Ranch dressing was good but store bought. One more thing - very few vegetarian choices! Service- 3/5: Everyone working that day in the front had food stains on their clothes. I get it's a restaurant but gave off unclean establishment vibes. Servers checked on us frequently so appreciate that. Ambience - 3/5: Clean and comfortable seating. Their prices are higher than what's posted on their online menu so just be aware of that. The server did tell me they were aware of it and changes were in the works. All in all, it's a one and done for us.

Nice interior with a patio for outdoor seatings I tried the grilled redfish with mash potato's and green beans. It was topped with shrimp and crawfish. My only criticism was it had only 2 shrimp. Aside from that it was cooked well and tasted great. We also tried the bean, rice sausage cup and that was tasty! Last we tried the cheeseburger since my partner doesn't like seafood. Had two juicy patties and came with a side of seasoned fries. They have a range of seafood items from grilled to fried and daily specials. Limited non seafood options but it's a seafood restaurant. To top it all off; can't give enough kudos to our young server, Sam! Sam was on point the entire visit. He helped answer questions, described plates and helped with selection and was attentive. He was polite and charismatic the entire time. Even if the food is great, bad service can break the experience and Sam did amazing. Thank you Sam for making my evening!

On this visit, I had the rainbow trout, and it was absolutely amazing. You could tell it was fresh right away--perfectly seasoned, nicely seared, and flaky without being dry. It came with green beans and roasted potatoes, plus a flavorful sauce that complemented everything really well. We also ordered the fish and chips, which were just as impressive--crispy, golden, and light, not greasy at all. The portions are generous, and everything tastes fresh and well-prepared. The service really stood out too. Our server was friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of without hovering--exactly what you want when dining out. Overall, Fish City Grille continues to deliver: fresh seafood, consistent quality, and great service. That's why we keep coming back. Highly recommend.

Great place to enjoy wine. We did go early, so it was quiet, but they said it gets a little louder…read moreas the day goes on. They have trivia and other activities. The place is a good size with inside and outside seating. They have nice alcove booths that fit a good amount of people. We made reservations for first Sunday brunch. Currently they only offer brunch the first Sunday of the month. They have an extensive wine menu and do have wine based cocktails and mimosas. On Sundays they have happy hour all day. I had she zucchini fries. The serving was big enough to share. It came with a side of marinara. For my meal, I had the avocado toast with poached eggs. The avocado has just the right amount of lime.

Yeah...so when you have to find the nearest empty parking lot and devour your burger expeditiously…read morebecause it smells so good and you can't last the 10 minute drive home, you give that burger 5 stars. I'd been wanting to try this place for a quite a while, and the stars just never aligned. Until today! I placed an online order for pickup since I didn't have time to sit inside. When I walked in, I was greeted nicely by the woman manning the cash register/taking orders. I gave her my name and she said they were working on my order and it would be out in a bit. No problem! About 2 minutes later I was handed a brown paper bag with my burger inside. I ordered a regular degular cheeseburger with no subs or additions. This comes with mayo, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and cheese. Lettuce and onions were chopped, everything else was not. Yall, It smelled go good I'm not lying, I pulled over and opened that bad boy in my car in an apartment rec center parking lot. The bun? Soft and pillowy but not soggy. A little toasted. Perfect. The toppings were fresh, nothing overpowering and the size of the everything worked well. The meat was a great thickness, not too thick or thin, and seasoned just enough. Juicy, flavorful, and had those charred edges you get on griddled burgers. Yum. The cheese was melty and delicious. Literally could not find a fault here. I didn't order sides, but you betta believe I'll be back for more burgers and maybe I'll try them then. In the meantime, go here for a super delicious, freshly made burger as soon as you can!

This was a place I had in my list of places "to try". It's been on the list for a long time, but I…read morehad missed it. So we rectified that today. We drove up and found the restaurant shares a building with a gas station. We laughed about that and did not let it stop us. Walking inside, we found that the restaurant was larger than it looks from the outside. It was not very busy, and we were able to walk up to where you can order. They have specials every day, and today it was a mushroom cheeseburger, fries, and a drink for $10. My wife ordered that, but i had to order a bacon cheeseburger as that's my favorite. We got our drinks and went to a table near the front entrance. It wasn't long before our orders were ready and delivered to the table. The food looked like I was really going to enjoy it. My wife loved her meal. She said it was exactly what she wanted, and the fries were her favorite. I had somewhat of a different opinion. My burger had everything I like but 1 thing. It had no seasoning. None! Will I return? That's a tough one. My wife loved the place, but me, not so much. I will probably visit again to please the wife and to give them a chance to change my opinion:)
