    First of all, I really hope this place succeeds. The owner and waitstaff were extremely nice and very concerned that we were satisfied with the food. Cassy is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. We wish her every success. That said, there are a few things she needs to work on. Fried collard greens: We went there specifically to try these, since we'd missed having them at the State Fair. We were shocked when they arrived: three little thumb-sized, one-bite morsels cowering in the middle of a plastic saucer. For $12. That may fly at the State Fair, but not in Eustace, despite the fact that they were very good. Just not $12 good, not even at the Fair. I had the two-piece catfish basket, also $12. The contrast between the two dishes for the same price was amazing. The catfish was good, well cooked, but came in two large, thick fillets. When Cassy asked how it was, I explained I would rather each of the fillets be cut into three thin strips and fried crisp, and she was receptive to the suggestion, saying all I had to do was ask for it that way. My wife had pork ribs, which were tasty but not cooked until tender and not smoky tasting. A half-pound was $10. They were out of sweet potato pie. Bummer. To reiterate: We really hope this place succeeds, but based on this visit, it's doubtful. Prove me wrong. Go. Eat. Tell them what they need to do to get you to come back. And take note: They are in EUSTACE, not Athens. I've submitted a correction to the map.

    The food was great. A bit pricey but that's normal now days if you're going to go out an eat. Everyone needs to try it.

    My kids loved the brisket Mac & cheese (and the large was enough for at least 2).

    I loved the food. It was southern country cooking. The people are nice and food is great.read more

    I've lived and worked around Eustace, Texas for years, and I know most folks in this community…read more That's why it bothers me to speak up, but what I've seen over at The Roost just doesn't sit right. From what I've experienced, it seems like the place hires people who are already having a hard time finding work elsewhere. There's one waitress who, as I understand it, lost a previous job at a vet clinic after some issues with missing medication. These days, she'll sometimes show up with her own mix of what she calls a Bloody Mary--heavy on the vodka--and while she might offer it around, she mostly drinks it herself during her shift. She's married to a local police officer, and I've even seen him there in uniform helping bus tables. Another waitress is a local girl--friendly enough--but not very sharp, and she ends just about everything with a nervous little laugh that wears on you after a while. In the kitchen, things are worse. One of the cooks reportedly brings in liquor in the mornings, keeps it in the cooler by the register, and drinks from it throughout the day while working. I've also noticed basic cleanliness and food safety don't seem to be taken seriously. Hair shows up in food more often than it should, and when it's pointed out, it's sometimes just picked out by hand and tossed aside, no handwashing after. I've never personally seen staff washing their hands the way they should, and gloves and hairnets don't seem to be used. Food handling practices raise a lot of concerns--things like cheese and ingredients sitting out for hours, reused bowls without washing, and no clear labeling or dating on food. The equipment doesn't seem to be working right either. Freezers and refrigerators aren't holding proper temperatures, and instead of fixing them, it looks like staff are working around it with ice or just using the equipment anyway. I've heard of meat and seafood being served even when it didn't seem fresh. There are also bigger issues. The building doesn't appear to meet basic accessibility standards for folks with disabilities--parking, entrances, and restrooms included. Plumbing problems have reportedly backed up into the café area, and instead of shutting down to clean properly, the same mop used in the dining area was used to deal with it. Altogether, it paints a picture of a place that may not be taking health, safety, or basic standards seriously. I care about this town and the people in it, and I believe folks deserve to know what they might be walking into.

Our app came quickly but the drinks and food came so slowly. Also between us asking for waters while we look at the cocktail menu was a lot of elapsed time. Food: the steak frites were very salty (and I love salt) but definitely the best meal ordered. The "Mac attack" tasted cheeseless -- literally tasted like water. The chicken Alfredo was "mid" but also a super tiny portion. Both pastas looked like kids meals. I guess they were priced appropriately at least. Not pictured was the Donny burger -- described as "eh it was fine". All left more to be desired. We really wanted to try the cinnamon cake but decided against since service was sooooo slow. The peach tea was bad. The oasis marg was okay. When we asked for wine, we were told "I don't know what we have let me show you" and were shown the screen that listed: white, red, rose, and sparkling. The wine should be listed on the menu with the beer and the cocktails. I'd maybe come again to sit at the bar and have a drink or two if there's live music, but otherwise, this is skippable for a full meal service.

Prices are reasonable. The one cook behind the counter looked 12 but I watched him cook and he was very good.

This place like all other Huddle House restaurant is small, but clean and well organized. Our server was Ms. Michelle, who was very welcoming, good sense of humor, polite, very efficient and nice smile. She promptly served us water and coffee. She then took our orders and the three of us opted for the Philly Cheese steak Omelet, with crispy hash browns, I got the side of toast whileny brothers got theirs with biscuits and side of white gravy. Even though, (apologies), I didn't take pictures the omelettes were very delicious. Whoever prepared my toast, must of just graduated from butter school, because my toast was oozing with butter. Other than this everything was totally awesome.

She was attentive, kind, and always paying attention to whether we needed anything without hovering. We started with the appetizer sampler and chose the fried pickles, okra, and green beans. Everything came out hot, fresh, and lightly breaded, which I really appreciated. Nothing felt greasy or overly heavy. Also, the sweet tea was actually sweet and delicious, not that sad "dark water" tea you sometimes get other places. We split the chicken fried chicken sandwich and an order of 8 honey BBQ wings. Both came out at the same time, and honestly, we probably could have chosen just one because the portions were huge. For the price point, that was a big plus. Everything I saw on the menu looked reasonably priced and fair for today's economy, no price gouging. The chicken fried chicken was cooked perfectly. The breading was light, the outside was crispy, and the chicken was still juicy. The wings were fried naked and crispy before the sauce was added, which I loved. My only tiny nitpick would be that there was a little more sauce than I personally prefer. I would have liked the option to add more sauce if needed, since you can always add more but can't take it off once it's on. Overall, this was such a good experience. Great service, fresh food, big portions, fair prices, and a true local restaurant feel. I'm so glad we chose this place and will definitely be sending people this way!
