    Super Combo Fish & Shrimp

    Havent been to a Cotton Patch in a few years. Was always a good choice. This visit was on our way home from an out of town trip. Several positives: we were greeted and seated fairly quickly. Our server was friendly and attentive. Another off duty staff was very kind. Their new teas with flavoring is delicious! I ended up getting a gallon of chai and one mint to take home. Rolls were different than I recall. Smaller and not as good. My shrimp were very greasy which Ive never had a greasy seafood platter here before. Fries were barely warm and maybe not cooked thoroughly. Bathroom had water everywhere on the floor and a bucket capturing water from ceiling link - maybe AC pan overflowing? So staff and service get 5 stars. Food 3.5 and facility 3

    Outside getting ready to enter.

    The food was very southern authentic and delicious. We ate the grilled shrimp and salmon over rice with macaroni and okra sides. The grilled shrimp was great and lots of them. The atmosphere was was homey and warm. The service was good and the food arrived quickly. The next time I want to try the chicken fried steak or the flounder.

    On the way back to DFW from College Station we stopped at Sam's on Sunday, 3/8. I was so glad we…read moredid!! This place has an absolutely amazing lunch buffet! The salad stuff was fresh and the dressings were all good. On the hot side of the buffet they had chicken friend steak, ham, turkey and dressings, bbq brisket and friend chicken. Everything was excellent! The sides were all great. I imagine their homemade pies are amazing but I was too full to try any of them! I will 100% be back anytime I am nearby!!!

    My dad has been coming here for years, I believe this was my first time…read more My dad went for the buffet, and I ordered a la carte. First, the service was excellent, I believe our server was named Presley. Very kind, always checking on us and keeping our water and tea full. On the buffet, my dad enjoyed the salad he had, but was surprised at the little variety offered that day. He said last time he was there with my brother there was more to choose from. He then got the fried chicken, which was greasy and barely any chicken on the thigh. I tried to find a drumstick but it was just breasts, thighs and a few wings. He did like the chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes. As for the fried okra, you have to eat it fresh. It is sitting under a heat lamp just makes it soggy and slimy. I ordered 4 vegetables a la carte which came out to be as much as the all you can eat buffet. First, their onion rings are OUTSTANDING! So is their homemade ranch. What was disappointing was the green beans, they definitely came out of a can and were heated. At $3.99 I expected fresh. There may have been a small piece of onion in it. Not sure if that was how it was cooked or if it fell in from another dish. The black-eyed peas were tasty. I also had a cup of the chicken corn chowder which was good. However, there was pieces of cubed chicken in it which also made me think that it was a prepackaged soup and not homemade. My dad got the coconut cream pie, which tasted good, but could have used more coconut then just on the top. He wanted bread pudding or peach cobbler, however at the time of day we were there, they had been picked over way too much, not leaving much for anyone else to enjoy. I did like the selections in the gift shop and purchased a tea towel before we left. I always like to try a place 3 times so I may stop in and try something else. Again, great customer service.

    All I can say is WOW! This may be the best restaurant in Ennis. My husband ordered the steak…read moresandwich, and the moment he took the first bite, his eyes lit up. I had the carbonara, and honestly, it was almost too pretty to eat. The service was a little slow, but it actually gave us time to soak in the atmosphere and admire how beautiful the restaurant is inside. The vibe? Absolutely check. The cocktails were not our favorite, but that definitely won't stop us from coming back to try other drinks on the menu. What makes this place even more special is that it's a true mom-and-pop restaurant sourcing food locally. You really can't beat that. Supporting local while getting an amazing meal is always a win.

    I ordered the Steak Sandwich, mid rare, because that's how you ask meat to tell the truth. And it…read moredid. Pink and honest in the middle, warm and willing, bread holding it all together like a good road holding a long drive. Nothing flashy, nothing trying too hard just flavor that knew where it came from and didn't apologize. The arugula salad came sharp and clean, green with intent, that bitter edge that wakes you up a little and reminds you you're still alive. It wasn't there to impress you. It was there to balance things out, like a deep breath between sentences. I drank Earl Grey tea, steam rising slow, bergamot drifting up like memory, like train smoke somewhere far off. It felt right. The kind of tea you drink when you're not rushing anywhere, when the world can spin without you for a moment and that's okay. Fern in the Wild isn't trying to reinvent eating. It's doing something better. It's paying attention. To ingredients. To pace. To the quiet pleasure of a meal done right. I left feeling fed in more ways than one--like I'd stopped long enough to hear myself think. That's rare. That's worth something. I'll be back.

You can't go wrong with all you can eat breakfast! Most of it included eggs, bacon, sausage, monte cristos, and more! One thing I found extraordinarily great about this place is they told me everything is made in house. Which is hands down a plus and make everything much more tasty. Starting with the lunch food, I think they have one of the best burgers around the area! It's very good! They have a burger called the salamander burger, which is double meat, double cheese, and green chilis. It's not on the menu, but if you ask for it they know exactly what you are referring to. If you order the standard burger on the menu it's only one patty. We went on a Saturday morning and surprisingly there weren't very many people there. My only note about this, is the service was very slow. Great help, just slow.
