Lunch today at The Dam Grill was especially memorable and satisfying…read more It began with an experience that speaks to the true greatness of America. An elderly, mobility challenged couple parked at the front of the restaurant. The wait staff rushed out and assisted them to a table. Don and Barbara are regulars...I talked to them a bit on my way out. The care I saw happen there talks about the heart of America. It's not the politicians that make this country great...It's the people! It's service like this, that goes above and beyond. It's small, neighborly businesses where the customers become family. It's GOOD people that make this country great. ...And good food only makes it that much better! My meal choice for today was the large Chicken Fried Steak, with green beans, mashed potatoes, cream gravy, roll and sweet tea...your quintessential, thoroughly satisfying, Texas style comfort food. The steak portion was BIG! Big enough that I have AT LEAST one more fine meal coming from the leftovers. The mashed potatoes were smooth, drenched in a generous portion of delightful cream gravy. The DG style green beans are unique and were delicious. The roll was fresh and melt in your mouth good. As for the sweet tea... Well... Let's just say that it was just right! The smoke free restaurant is clean and spacious with plenty of seating. The friendly wait staff stays on the move attending to customer's cups of tea, coffee and sodas. The kitchen gets meals out quickly. The table bussers are meticulous and quiet. Outside, the parking lot has plenty of handicapped access spaces and free general parking galore...with lot's of room for rancher's truck's and trailers. I only have one complaint. In my book, breakfasts like theirs should be available all day long. LOL. Dang good stuff! Friday night is all you can eat catfish. When I want catfish, this is my goto. The fish is tender, succulent fillets and the beans and hush puppies are to die for. If You want a truly satisfying meal at a price that won't break your wallet, the The Dam Grill is right where you need to be. Just sayin'.

Possibly the worst food experience I've ever had. Not only did we get food poisoning but the…read moreexperience itself was awful. The burgers were under cooked and almost raw. We took two bites before we realized the meat was raw on the inside. When we went up to the counter the employee got defensive and said "that's how we make them". The attitude was disturbing. Four hours later we were all sick. Puking and miserable! So I guess they got the last laugh. The fries were soggy and dark brown from overly used grease I'm sure. When I sent a private message to the owner he blocked me on Facebook. This is a seedy business with a disgusting kitchen and terrible customer service. Instead, go across the street to Mommas Home Cooking and get the patty melt, or just drive over to STORMS and get the sourdough burger. I live in Burnet.

Once inside, it's clean and they will invite you to sit anywhere. The service is great. We started off with the Chicken Fried Steak that came with a side salad. The salad lettuce isn't very fresh and the serve the dressing on the side instead of atop the salad. We ordered the "small" Chicken Fried Steak and it is a very generous portion. Can't imagine what the large portion would be. We also ordered the onion rings as I heard they make them fresh. The plate was full of onion rings and the steak was full of gravy. The Chicken Fried Steak is good but the gravy is amazing! And the onion rings, probably the best onion rings I have ever had. Very fresh tasting and not overly greasy. They are large, cooked to perfection. We drove quite a distance so we wanted to try a few other items. We tried their classic cheeseburger and the club sandwich. The cheeseburger looks good but the meat isn't very good. Far from saying it was a great burger or that I would order the burger again. The club sandwich came with bits of bacon like you would see in a salad instead of full strips of bacon. It came with cheese which is not traditional for a club sandwich; the turkey is like store bought... not very fresh and there was entirely too much mayo. It's a nice place with great service. I really enjoyed the Chicken Fried Steak and Onion Rings but the rest was just okay.

After a great weekend in Fredericksburg, we find the Barrel House. The southern cuisine on the sign sold it even before we sat down. I'm a big fan of Cajun and creole cooking. We started with the fried boudin balls and gator bites, both were excellent fried to perfection with just a hint spicy bite. I had the chicken fried steak with eggs and hash browns. Steak was tender enough to cut with a fork, and was on point. Cynthia had the breakfast burger which she said was cooked to perfection as well as crispy along the edges. A great meal along with great service which allowed us to get back on the road and headed home with full stomachs. A full stomach and a Dateline podcast made those three hours a little more bearable

Motorcycle parking right up front, great views from the covered patio area in the back, and ice cold beer. They also have TV's, a pool table or two, lots of bar seating, nice restrooms and a very friendly bartender. We needed a snack and the fried mushrooms that would normally be about $11.99 at any restaurant/bar in closer to the city were priced attractively at about $6 and served piping hot. We will definitely be back on a day when we have more time to hang out and enjoy the nice weather at this cool indoor/outdoor bar.
