    Country 3. Big TX Chicken Fried Chicken with 3 Eggs
    Samettria B.

    Really good food. This is the first place to get my eggs right. Of course you will have to add salt and pepper to your eggs and hash browns but they are really good and you can taste the real butter. Good breakfast place. The jalapeno sausage gravy is pretty good but you can't go to wrong with breakfast. They are really nice people and they have all kinds of homemade jams. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Kid friendly family oriented place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Makes you feel like your at home.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute place...let's start there. Ambiance very quaint, inviting...not from this side of town but definitely looks like a favorite for many peeps on that side.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service seemed a little slow, it took awhile to get our food and we only had two dishes one of which was a kids meal. Waiter was friendly and staff seemed friendly. They charged $6 for chips and salsa so just fyi...salsa was very good though, but come on...not $6 good. Kids meal was basic, $8 seemed like alot for what they got but was okay. The chorizo plate was very good, chorizo was tasty, beans were good. Bacon was nice and crisp as requested. Pretty basic breakfast. Served with tortillas....guys they weren't homemade which was a bummer, but they did their job. Coffee was good, and rootbeer float was good. This restaurant definitely has potential with some minor tweaks, but for $48 after tip, we most likely won't be returning. Just too many other places that don't charge for chips and salsa, have homemade tortillas (just my preference don't come after me), and get better quality food for your money.

    Let me tell y'all something. This here restaurant is absolutely amazing. The food was great. The service was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only downside was them being so far from where we stay in Houston, which still isn't too far. Maybe 30 minutes away

    Dropped in for a quick break, and to try the sausage gravy and biscuit. Also I appreciate the typical Texan diner decor and atmosphere: CW music and lots of western cashe. Biscuits were Ho-hum. Not very fluffy. Gravy was plentiful and strangely, not cooked with sausage but separately? This is weird.

    Large menú so many options including for kid's meals!!! I love thise

    The place was clean and the servers friendly but the food was poor quality, bland and unappetizing. (Chicken fried steak.)

We were greeted and seated where we checked out the menu and ordered a bottle of wine to go with our appetizers, Bang Bang Shrimp and Poke. Our appetizers were amazingly delicious as we picked out our entrees. Federal American Grill was very regal looking from the outside and even more so on the inside. The wait service was impeccable and top notch while the menu was simple American fair. My wife went with the Roasted Chicken, I chose the Chicken Fried Steak and my 15 year old granddaughter picked the Blackened Chicken Alfredo. We received our meals and were completely underwhelmed. Our portions were extremely small but a lot of time went into the presentation of the meals. As for the taste, it was just okay. Even my granddaughter, who is not hard to impress, was not enthusiastic about one of her favorite meals. Federal American Grill seemed to be a bit pricey for the actual amount of food you received and I think more effort went into the presentation of the meal than the actual flavor of the meal. We walked away from our family dinner after having a great time but still feeling hungry. We Just felt like we needed a bit more

There was live music playing outside, but we chose to sit indoors that day. The hostess opened the front door right away to show us inside. My wife ordered the blackened flounder with two sides, southern green beans and the sweet potato cakes, because the server recommended it. I also went with the server's suggestions and ordered the Wagyu chicken fried steak with bacon jalapeno mac-n-cheese and jalapeno cream corn. It might not have been the healthiest choice, but I wanted to enjoy the evening. lol My wife really liked the blackened flounder. The green beans were a bit more overcooked than she liked, though. The chicken fried steak was outstanding and very tender. I liked that the delicious gravy came on the side so the steak stayed crispy. The sides were also outstanding.

For the price, I expected something significantly better. Charging $14 for a slice of cake that tastes this average feels like a complete ripoff. I left disappointed and frustrated with the purchase and will not be returning. To make matters worse, they don't even accept tap-to-pay or Apple Pay. In 2026, that's an unnecessary inconvenience and shows a lack of investment in the customer experience. Between the overpriced, mediocre dessert and the outdated payment options, this was a thoroughly disappointing visit.
