The staff were genuinely kind and attentive, which made a big impression on our whole family. We also appreciated the Christian decor throughout the restaurant and enjoyed learning that members of the team participate in an annual mission trip to Guatemala. There was even Christian merchandise available for purchase to help support those trips, which was a really meaningful touch. The food was just as good as the service. Our kids were very happy with the chicken nuggets and cheeseburgers--fair warning, the burgers are HUGE and come with a very generous portion of fries. Everything felt like classic comfort food done right. We also tried the chicken tenders, fried okra, and tater tots, and all of it was delicious. I ordered the hamburger steak plate with mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables, and it was flavorful, filling, and exactly what I was hoping for. The only "regret" we had was not ordering the onion rings--they looked incredible when we saw them come out for another table! If you're in Victoria and looking for a friendly, family-oriented spot with great food, this is definitely worth a visit.

Started outside on the BEAUTIFUL patio overlooking the Guadalupe River. The ambiance itself is world class! We had a drink outside as the day was beautiful and then went inside to dine. We ordered the Mac/cheese bacon wrapped bites as an appetizer and to be honest...I could've eaten all 6 myself! They were delicious! One person in our group ordered grill chicken and vegetables...I noticed his plate was cleaned! My husband ordered a hamburger and kettle chips...said it was great and we stole some of his chips and they were GOOD! The rest of us had salads and they all were fabulous (I also added fried shrimp to my salad and they were huge and good!) Our waiter was a young man named Ethan. He was absolutely brilliant! He didn't miss a beat with our crowd and that's saying ALOT! He was also extremely gracious and so professional!!! I asked if he could take a few photos of our group....he said of course and the photos were great! We all had a fantastic time in beautiful surroundings with delicious food and with top notch service! Who could ask for more?! 5/5 stars with extra stars for Ethan!

Definitely a ladies who lunch type of place and with that the service, though lovely was slow but for a lot of the guests, it probably lends to a leisurely lunch experience. Food was very impressive - their fried pickle dip is absolutely delicious!! Loved it and will have to try and find a way to replicate it with a lighter version - it's a must have if you like pickles. Then enjoyed the fish tacos that were so good! Blackened Mahi Mahi that was cooled perfectly and a delicious spicy cabbage slaw!! Fantastic! Definitely worth seeking out this unexpected gem in Victoria.

This place is quite pricey all around, about 10miles up from victoria in the middle of not much else. You can easily drive by and miss it; but its worth a stop! Other foods we order: crab was good, wish it had more flavor or seasoned butter, Cheese curds are good, Not a fan of beignets; they are nothing like the ones I've had in New Orleans. These were thick and for some reason they filled it with warm chocolate but it didn't say that on the menu. I wouldn't order again. The vibe here is cool tho! It's got a Huge outdoor hangout, just wish the weather was nicer and not so cold and windy the day we visited. Def wish I could've tried one of the cool looking drinks I kept seeing be delivered at tables but we had a 1.5hr drive home with 3 teenagers that aren't mine. I would return again if im ever in that area and recommend a stop in if your passin thru!

Located on the older side of town a block past DeTar Navarro Hospital on a corner. Don't judge it by the outside, it's inside an older building, I knew I was there from the smell of the Bbq cooking in the air. Inside was cheerful clean and filled with picnic and smaller tables, seat yourself. You place your order at the counter and they bring it out to your table. The gentleman taking my order was friendly and welcoming. Turns out he was the owner! In 3 minutes a sweet young lady was bringing me my food and utensils. They have all of the meats plus all the homemade sides one would wish to order! I went with the two meats (ribs and brisket) accompanied by potato salad and green beans, with banana pudding for dessert later. It's not a full service restaurant but I was checked on and looked after multiple times by servers. Nice big generous helpings. This meal was heavenly, sides like your Memaw would make for family and moist and meaty ribs and brisket, seasoned and cooked perfectly...no salt or pepper needed here, just a little of their delicious sauce! My mouth is watering as I recall it! I will visit them again every time I get to Victoria! Wish I could take them home with me.
