Bella Blue - Fried chicken Sandwich - Cafes Near Me - Temple, Texas

Great taste and friendly people service was fast price not bad and right off the highway I35

Went in here ordered the chicken fried steak and a piece of cherry pie. The waitress was excellent did her job but she kept apologizing for the food the pie was nasty could not eat it. The chicken fried steak was crumbly over cooked and no flavor . The waitress kept apologizing saying the cook was just having a bad night. But I enjoyed drinking the water it was good. Had one bite of the chicken fried steak the waitress took it all back and I still had to pay $ 7.55 for food I did not eat would not recommend dining here when the cook is in a bad mood read more

First time trying out this recent opening spot for all day breakfast. I ordered the Bella Blue omlet with home fries and toast. The mushrooms are fresh, the ham and the sausage had char, the home fries were not greasy. We will order again. read more

Bella Blue - Bella Blue omelet with home fries. Mushrooms are fresh, the ham and the sausage had char, and the home fries were not greasy - Cafes Near Me - Temple, Texas

The place had a VERY strong smell of urine. Side came out ice cold like straight out of the fridge cold. Service was slow and tables were left dirty. read more

Had burgers done the right way here! And very, very good service. The only reason I'm not giving them a "5" is that they don't have Coke products, just Pepsi ... and ...my cheeseburger really needed more cheese. I just don't like those small, square sandwich cheese on my burger. We're new to town and we'll definitely be back! read more

, I saw so many people rave about this place and it was just okay. The service was lacking. ....I recommend NOT asking for crispy hashbrowns because instead of cooking them on a flat surface and browning one side or even both sides of them similar to a pancake like normal people they will throw a handful of shredded potatoes in the deep fryer and bring you these sorry shriveled up little CRISPY lol potatoes. Yeah you get crispy but definitely NOT what I want or expected. I didn't send it back. Service was already slow and our server definitely didn't understand or have the ability to multitask and stay attentive. ....chicken fried steak was good though I'd order carryout if I ever came back though. read more

Well....it was fine. Maybe short staffed? Orders were slow and came out in waves. Grits looked like someone had stirred it around after taking a couple of bites. Limited condiments (even butter). Just so so. First time there, won't be in a hurry to go back. The waitress was really sweet though. Sorry! read more

Worst service I have ever seen. Box mac n cheese. 45 min for a salad. Cook needed help from wait staff.

Was not a chain restaurant so I did like that! Walked in to fairly open area... tables still socially spaced. Coffee and refills were were quick and hot! Got a vegetable but honestly mushrooms were lacking and it was rather small... slightly longer than a hot dog bun and as thick as half a bun, maybe? Got wheat toast and grits as a side. I think the food was better than a chain(?) but instant grits (and I verified this at the register) just aren't the same as real grits! It was obviously popular for the locals , so that says something at least. read more

Great down home style cafe. Friendly staff, great food, great coffee. Love coming here.

Food is ok service is ok. nothing special about this place. Patty melt was not as good as Waffle House.

I've had breakfast here twice. The portions are huge. You won't leave hungry. The customer service has been excellent both times. Next time I'll have to try one of the burgers. The owner is one of the nicest people I've ever met. She took out time to say hello and ask how everything was. Will definitely be back soon! read more

I've never eaten here before so I decided to give it a shot and they serve breakfast and lunch all day long so I had gotten the bacon cheeseburger here (medium well) and it is one of the BEST burgers I've ever eaten in my life and everything from the atmosphere and my amazing server Jessica was so welcoming and sweet. A definite must visit ASAP! read more

Bella Blue - Cheeseburger - Cafes Near Me - Temple, Texas

We were so excited for this place to open, but were very disappointed. We ordered breakfast to go and EVERYTHING was cold. We only live 5 minutes, so something should have been at least warm. Well the dogs enjoyed it. read more

My fiance and I love diners and finding this gem in Temple Texas was almost too good to be true. The staff is friendly and sweet and the food is amazing and vedy well priced. This establishment is run by some hardworking wonderful ladies and I highly encourage you to check it out on your next craving for some good home cooking! read more

I'm extremely empresses with this place. I have never been disappointed with any of the food, and costumer service is fantastic. Great place to bring your family and get good quality food. Staff is very friendly, awesome atmosphere. Try it for yourself and you'll love it. read more

Hometown folks making homemade meals. Delicious ! Chicken fried chicken and burgers are where it's at.

We were driving through for a beach trip and decided to stop in. This is very much so a small town diner, and it's great! Not the best place if you're in a rush, definitely more of a slow pace vibe. I got the Bella Blue sandwich and it was phenomenal! Service was awesome, decor is cute, coffee was perfect. Wish I didn't live an hour and a half away! read more

Bella Blue - Texas Flag Mural - Cafes Near Me - Temple, Texas

When i entered this establishment, IT SMELLED LIKE SHIT!! it took nearly 50 minutes for me to be seated and another 20 to even get a drink!! the food was horrendous! it smelled just like my dogs feet and even LOOKED like it! 0/5 stars!! would never return Hot Dog read more

My husband & I have eaten breakfast here a few times. Great food, great service, great people.

Decided to try this place out after church today. Arrived about 12:15pm and found a seat. Placed our order approx 12:25pm. My son ordered a hamburger and fries, husband ordered an omelet, my daughter and I ordered the breakfast meal that included 2 over-medium eggs w/ 2 pancakes & hash browns. We all sat patiently and talked, but at 1:15pm after no food and no explanation realized it should not take 45 minutes to cook a few eggs & pancakes. Went and asked and saw our food ready and sitting for who knows how long. It started to slowly get brought to our table (only our daughter's first) and then we sat for several more minutes with no silverware. I had to go ask for that, by this point I was pretty frustrated and asked how they expected to stay in business running like this. The owner chased me down and hollered at me and my family stating she didn't need our business and that it took so long because our order used up both her griddles and that they are understaffed. What?! Unbelievable!! The large table of customers beside us was in disbelief watching this owner hollering and yelling at us the way she was. They said they have never witnessed such a thing and also will never be back. Once the food was sat on our table pancakes were burnt and rubbery, and my sons hamburger patty was black and charred. Absolutely disgusting. If I wait 45 minutes for food it better be amazing, however this was unfit to eat. This place won't last due to the poor customer service, pitiful food, and owners rude behavior and lack of knowledge in running a restaurant. You may want to close down a week or two and provide your staff with some proper training and cooking lessons if you plan on staying open past 2021. read more

Great homestyle food along with excellent, friendly service! I had the chicken fried chicken with green beans and garlic mashed potatoes. Delicious! My wife had an omelet and has browns and loved it! They serve breakfast all day. We will be back! read more

Service was not good. Only one waitress for the entire restaurant and since it was a Saturday evening at 6:00 it should've been at least 3 or 4 service staff. We never were offered drink refills except when it was time for the check. Had to ask several times for ranch and appetizer plates (which we never received and had to eat on napkins.) Food was just okay. One order didn't come out correctly, but they never checked on us after bringing out food so we couldn't send it back. We had high hopes, but we won't be back. read more

Waitress was Excellent but when I order food, I expect to be told that the item isn't available at the time I order it, not when my wife gets her food. Then every option I ask to replace what they did not have wasn't on the menu because they failed to update the menu. Very disappointed when person bringing my food tells me they will have what I did not receive tomorrow as if that would fix the problem today. When food arrived the hash browns were soggy and flavorless. They tasted old and not fresh. The things that could have been different were: 1. At the time I ordered a ribeye, the waitress could have been informed that the kitchen did not have any instead of waiting until our food was dying in the window. 2. The waitress, although good, could have approached me better than "You're going to hate me" when telling me that the kitchen had most of our food done before being told that they did not have the steak I ordered. 3. The lady who brought my food out definitely should not have told me that they would have a steak tomorrow when they could not get my order correct today. read more

Had lunch here. I had burger and tots, friend had cheeseburger and tots. Hamburgers were not impressive, they didn't touch Wes's burgers when he had the place. I didn't even finish mine. The employees were very friendly. If I went back I'd have to try something other than burgers. read more

Outstanding cheeseburger, onion rings, pecan pie and coconut cream pie. Our service was great and the food was presented well and tasted great. I've tried almost all cheeseburgers in the Temple/Belton area, and this one was high on the list of the best! read more

Good is consistently good! Service is great, friendly and personable! Great liver and onions, and fried fish! Onion rings and hamburgers are outstanding. read more

Love the rustic chic vibe and the ladies are just wonderful! Will be back with my fam :)

i've eaten there multiple times and have always had great meals !!! ... i could make a meal on just their texas toast alone !!! ... their fried chicken, cheeseburgers, and chopped steak meals are tremendous !!! ... the atmosphere is quiet and the wait staff kind and pleasant ... yesterday, i had their cherry cobbler -- just as good as the oscar store!!! ~~ read more

What a shame. First time here, table was dirty and that was the good part. Waitress greeted us with a smile and took our order. How hard is it to get onion ring appetizer and onion rings for a side. Actually, I think that was the kitchen staff error. Basket of onion rings come out, no offer for ranch or plates. Food comes out, minus the 2 sides for my husband's chicken fried steak, fries and onion rings. I ordered the grilled pork chops, mashed potatoes and green beans. Must have been the littlest pig in the pen. Potatoes were cold and I NEVER salt my food, but the green beans where that bland right out of the can. Then we realized they where closing in 45 minutes because the door was locked and all the help started sitting at tables and talking like we where back in high school in the school cafeteria. As we start to finish our meal, someone yells to the cook, "those onion rings should be ready!" Needless to say we won't be back. The bad part is the food is in the same level as Jodie's, the onion rings where homemade as was the chicken fried steak. We will go to Jodie's without the high school drama. Total bill $34 for 2. read more
