    Came here instead of ihop only to find out they don't serve breakfast. Was in a taste for pancakes or waffles. But I stayed and got some fried catfish and fries. With hush puppies and blackberry tea. Was pretty good. The peach cobbler needed some help tho to be honest.

    I had a BOGO order from Ubereats with this restaurant. It was a chicken fried chicken with gravy, green beans, baked potato loaded and rolls. I enjoyed the meal and had one for the next day. I had no issues with my order or delivery driver. I would definitely order from here again and get a dessert next time.

    This is my first time at Cotton patch. I was on my way to the airport in Dallas just and I wanted something that wasn't barbecue and this actually hit the spot. When you walk in the ambiance is real cool. They had TVs at the bar. You can watch the game which was a full service bar by the way and then had plenty of seating. The staff was nice in the greeted me when I walked in and immediately took my order. I ordered the chicken fried steak with a side of green beans and smothered potatoes before my meal came and brought me some fresh bread and butter which was delicious. The chicken fried steak was perfect. It was fried hard like I like and flavorful and the potatoes were delicious. Also the green beans we're actually good because they had pieces of bacon in them which is always a win. I definitely with tried them again because they hit the spot for me when I needed it. It made my flight enjoyable

    We arrived on a rainy evening and the place wasn't that busy (note that they have daily specials and it was steak night) so I was hopeful for a casual dinner. We were seated and the beginning of our experience was frustrating to say the least. However I will say that Kayla and Caleb came through and made this a pleasurable experience. If you are diabetic, as I am, note that you might want to ask for a glass of water for the strawberry lemonade. Although it was good, it was super sweet. So note that their side salad isn't your usual salad, it comes with onions and bell peppers. For a side salad it's a good portion. I also ordered the grilled pork chops (which are always good) with green beans that came with apples. The country friend steak wasn't a favorite as just was just meh. The shrimp seem like they get them pre breaded and frozen and then deep fry them. As much as I love fried green tomatoes, these needed to be seasoned and I'm use to it having a remoulade however here you get ranch dressing. The Texas fries were okay, I felt like the fries needed to be cooked a little harder to stand up to the items being put on them so they don't become soggy. The savior is the gooey cheesecake - it wasn't overly sweet and I would get this again to go. So if you make a trip, I encourage you to ask to sit in Kayla's section. She seriously took care of us and made the evening a pleasurable one.

    My first issue is that when you order online they don't give you the option to tip they automatically take a tip so unless you're aware of that when you get ready to check out you don't realize it till it's too late I don't tip hourly employees. Second of all not only did they get a tip but I had to ask for plasticware I had to ask for rolls which automatically comes with your meal. So now I've tipped for what bad servicing again. Then after getting home and seeing my meal I paid for a dinner size steak but got the lunch portion.

    Store receipt

    I place a pickup order at 8:15 pm that said it would be ready at 8:35 pm. I arrived at 8:35 pm but it was not ready. I sat down and finally got my order at 9:10 pm after watching my order hanging up there and be skipped. The staff was not friendly and then gave me 2 rolls for 3 entrees. I even tipped them 18% on the app when I placed the order. After looking at the receipt they provided with the bag of food that does not show my tip and the receipt from my app that does show my tip, I am wondering if the staff thought I did not tip. I witnessed one of the employee's asking a delivery driver if someone else tipped. He showed the black lady employee his phone and I heard her say "Oh that person orders all the time but we never see if they tip" which seems like she wanted to know if the orders had tipped. She never helped me but said something to the younger girl that was putting out most to go orders. There were a lot of employees in the store with only one table of people actually eating inside. All the other orders were to go and only the one girl was putting out to go orders. All other employees were mainly standing around and not helping with the orders. If a manager see this review and you have cameras, please take a look at what your employees are doing. We come here usually at least once a month and while the staff is never really friendly at this location this is the first time it's been this bad. The tip not showing on what they are looking at could explain how unfriendly they are because we always place our orders on the app. I am adding pictures of the receipt that came with the food and my receipt from the app. Ei

    Great Sunday after-church stop off. You can get in and out even on "busy" days because the staff is attentive and gets your food out pretty quickly. Very causal and laid back. You're not gonna impress with aesthetics, but you will in food quality and quantity. Wear your sweat pants here, not your heels.

    I'm pretty sure they should've chopped this part off.

    Who likes soft soggy fried okra? I ordered fried okra and asked for it to be a little extra crunchy, but it came out soggy. That is why I asked who likes it that way?

    I honestly don't know of anyone who likes soggy fried okra? I am from Texas and Fried means Fried. Maybe you need boiled okra instead ?

When they set you down the dry ice experience the washcloths that were a little tablet that you added water to that was unique and then the appetizers were excellent.

The smoke from the kitchen basically consumed the dining area and was very irritating. It eventually dissipated after a while, but I wouldn't recommend infants in this environment. After our party was seated, it took 15-20 min before our waiter greeted us and provided water; that was a bit annoying. After we got our orders in, things were smooth sailing from there. We were a large party and our waiter did a pretty good job at managing us and all of our requests. Food: they do not waste time bringing the food out. Most of our orders came out within 10 minutes! I ordered the Short Rib (unfortunately not pictured). It was hot, tender, and seasoned well....very good. It came on a bed of rice and some type of sauce. I was not a fan of either. The rice seemed uncooked and the sauce was too much and very liquid. It drowned the rice and practically made it soupy. I would have been fine with just the short rib. I also ordered a side of black eyed peas... also not a fan. It was undercooked and I didn't love whatever seasoning was used to prepare it. Other items I tried: Fries, Cornbread, Yams, and Soul Rolls. These were all tasty, specifically the soul roll. It came out crispy, hot, and stuff proportionately. I could take every bit of what was inside. It's definitely a must try.

    Today was our first time here, and we had a great experience…read more This place is really a hidden gem. I pass by it all the time on the way to the gym, and finally decided to try it today for the first time. We ordered the Mango Lassi, Butter Chicken, Allepey Prawns, Garlic Naan, Butter Naan, Roti, Mint Chutney, Raita, and Lasooni Gobi. Everything was really good here, and I can't wait to come back to try new dishes. I usually always go for the usual at Indian restaurants, such as the tikka masala, butter chicken, samosas, etc. but we decided to try the Allepey Prawns since we've never had it before, and it ended up being one of our favorite dishes we tried tonight. Next time we plan on trying their Palak Paneer and Biriyani, and this lollipop chicken I keep seeing all over Yelp. Nayal was our server, and he was very patient and attentive with us since we took forever to order. All of the staff here was pretty friendly actually. This location is across from Walmart on Uptown Blvd. The Lasooni Gobi was also really good, their cauliflowers still had a slight crisp even when they were sauced up, and was very flavorful and fragrant. Out of all of their naans the Roti was the crispiest, the garlic was really flavorful, and the butter/original naan was a nice balance of both slightly crispy and soft, pairs well with all of the dishes. The ambiance is nice and quiet but with a good volume of music playing in the background, which accommodates the vibe lounge since they offer wine and beer. Highly recommend and will definitely be back.
