Nothing about the outside prepared me for just how good this food was going to be. But once I walked in, I was genuinely impressed. I went half butter pecan and half strawberry on the waffle, and my goodness, this was a very well-made waffle. Moist, flavorful, and so good that I honestly didn't even need the syrup. The butter pecan and strawberry combination was phenomenal. I also had two fried chicken wings. They were fried hard, exactly the way I like them, crispy and seasoned. I probably would've taken just a touch more seasoning, but that's a minor critique. The chicken was very, very good. This place completely exceeded my expectations. I'll absolutely be back. Actually, I might come back today. Phenomenal chicken and waffles!

Stopped in after 4th Grade graduation to have brunch. Hostess sat us down then forgot to tell the…read morewaiter we were at his table so we sat for over 5 minutes before someone showed up. Service got better somewhat after that. Ordered Rye toast got white toast with no butter on it. Bear claw french toast was okay but hard to cut thru because the egg mixture was burnt on the bottom and stuck to the plate. Wife had the Little lite breakfast omelette with grits it was an okay meal nothing to rave about. I had the Meat Lovers Omelette with the long hash browns, plenty of eggs and meat for sure, potatoes were not seasoned at all and just bland again nothing to rave about. This was my first and probably my last time at this restaurant. Sammie our waiter did well, never came back to see if we wanted more coffee and drinks. Need to pick it up if you are concerned about your customers

GREAT local breakfast spot downtown. The food was so, so good and very filling! I got the breakfast…read moresandwich on waffles. Asked for my eggs over medium and they were EXACTLY perfectly cooked. Tater tots were absolutely delicious also, I recommend them 10/10. The friend I was eating with is gluten-free and dairy-free. They were able to pick from a good amount of options, and they got the avocado toast on gluten-friendly bread, no dairy, and they loved it. Atmosphere is very fun and retro, though since it is a small building, it can get pretty loud if busy. Obviously not much staff can do about that though, and crowds is a good sign for buisness! But if you're noise-sensitive, maybe request to sit away from the main room, or bring headphones. Service was very cordial, we got seated very quickly and served quickly as well! I didn't get coffee this time, but I have gotten a latte before and it was phenomenal. Overall great breakfast-for-lunch joint. My only complaint is I wish they were open later in the day for dinner too! Will definitely be coming back. Eat local!

I had an outstanding experience at Cracker Barrel, and it was all thanks to our server, Ashten. She…read moreis hands-down one of the most attentive servers I've had in all my visits here--and honestly, one of the best in the industry. Her timing was impeccable. Every time she checked on us, it was perfectly spaced--never intrusive, never absent. In fact, she somehow managed to stop by *every single time* when we didn't have a mouthful of food, which is almost an art form in itself. Her "fly-bys" were smooth, natural, and exactly when we needed them. Ashten stayed on top of everything, from refills to making sure we had what we needed before we even had to ask. Service like this is rare, and it really made the entire dining experience stand out. If you're dining here, I highly recommend asking for Ashten--you won't be disappointed.

The place is in a bit of an awkward location but we decided to go ahead and check it out and it exceeded our expectations. Once we got inside the building was packed but we were immediately seated and taken care of with drinks. We both got their freshly squeezed orange juice which was perfect in the morning. She got the buttermilk pancakes with an egg and bacon, I ordered the french toast with an egg and sausage. The portions were very good and I think they have the best French toast I have eaten from a cafe. We will definitely return when we are in Town, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

We loved her. Now when my sister said they had good food, I did NOT expect it to be soooo delicious...yummy!!! I ordered the smothered pork chops & the serving was HUGE! I had enough for 2-1/2 meals! It was scrumptious! I loved everything, especially the onions they grilled (or however they cooked them). It was clear that whoever was in the kitchen absolutely knew what they were doing & they cooked with some extra helpings of love in there! My sisters had the fried catfish & I tried theirs & was completely blown away! It was truly one of the BEST fried catfish I have had since I've been in Texas...& that's saying a lot because I've tried a LOT of different places & my hips prove it every time I look in the mirror...lol! The crispness, the lightness, the perfectly seasoned batter & fish were above & beyond! OMGosh! I can't WAIT to come back...even though the drive is 2 hours away, it will definitely be worth it! Great job Hallmark! & thank you Jessie for making it such an enjoyable experience for us. God bless you all!

Today's special was the all you can eat Schnitzel with purple cabbage and fried potatoes. The meal came out hot and fast. The Schnitzel had a good gravy. A few more onions than I prefer but wouldn't prevent me from ordering it again. The potatoes and cabbage were good too. Although it was the "all you can eat" special, I was done after one plate. Overall its was a good meal. I just wish I could've had more room.

The chicken fettuccine alfredo was a solid pasta and came in a large portion. I also got a glass of moscato. My friends enjoyed the chicken piccata, triple delight, and shrimp scampi. When I made a reservation over the phone and also when I arrived, I was told by the hostess that there would be something special done for the birthday occasion. I saw in other reviews that they give a small dessert with a message, but they did not do anything of the sort. Our server was extremely slow, and the birthday dessert never came. This was a huge disappointment when I specifically chose this restaurant to celebrate the occasion.
