August 2025 First visit, free parking with plenty of…read moreparking spaces and an inclined slope leading to the restaurant's circular drive at the door. Large lobby with bench seating, hostess stand, seating indoors and on patio, with a friendly staff. Short wait, maybe 20 minutes with no dinner reservation, then we were ushered to our patio seating for the perfect weather and view. A railing lines the back patio to prevent falls below and provides great selfie opportunities. The noise level was raised from ok to loud when a group of young adult men sat nearby. Waitstaff was busy yet managed to flag down. Ordered TOMAHAHK SCHNITZEL 5/5 BACON PARM MAC 4/5 RED SNAPPER 3/5 Definitely will return for a visit.

Bay View for dinner. Laura took excellent care of us. Started with some drinks and their crab dip…read more The dip was yummy. We started with salads. Wife had the pork chop. I had the steak and fries. Daughter had the crab stuffed flounder. Son had the NY strip. All the food was good and tasty. For dessert cheesecake. Drove with their parking lot golf cart guy to our car. Good food friendly staff. Worth a visit. 5/5. Ask for Laura.

Hooper's is one of the most unique restaurant experiences I've ever had!…read more It's inside the restored Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) house from the movie, and walking up to it feels so unreal. Once you're inside, you can explore a lot of the house and it blew me away how much you're able to walk around and see. There's art everywhere, tons of movie memorabilia, and it kinda feels like a Texas Chainsaw museum that just happens to serve food, which is pretty awesome. The theme isn't subtle either (in the best way). One area had a bar with a severed head behind it! There are so many little details, displays and photo moments that other horror fans are going to be obsessed with too! Even the menu is fun, with stuff like the Chicken Slaughter sandwich and the Hitchhiker's grilled chicken. I know it's cheesy, but I love it, especially when the whole place is packed with memorabilia. Food was pretty good too. The experience is definitely the main event, but the food held its own as a bar and grill, and mixing that with how cool the place is made it feel like a full stop, not just a novelty visit. Service was fine but not super standout. There were only a couple staff members actively helping people while others were cleaning up, and everyone was nice enough, just not really "above and beyond." Our food also took a while for a burger and a turkey sandwich, but honestly those are my only real complaints, and I'm only even mentioning it because I'm also here to talk about the food. It was great regardless of the wait. Upstairs has a few more Leatherface items plus some gory/spooky decor, and there's a cool little location map where you can stick a pin in to indicate how far you've visited from! They also have a creepy skin looking guest book to sign, which is such a perfect touch. One real warning though: it's an old house. In Texas, Prepare for the heat, and I mean that seriously. If you want to explore outside too, come ready. I had a UV-blocking umbrella and a face mister and I was still feeling it. Sunglasses for the grounds are a must too. Also, there's a kitty living on the porch named Tuxie, and he's a precious little buddy who loves attention. Make sure you say hi. If you're a horror movie fan or you just love weird, memorable places you'll be talking about after, this one is absolutely worth it.

I cannot say enough good about this place. It's a little bit of a hike from Austin. However I'm…read morenoticing here everything is 2 hours from where you want to be. Anyway this is the house from the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre. What better repurpose than a bar and restaurant. They have merch for sale at a little half bar in the next room. All the shirts are hanging in the hall when you first come in. A bunch of cool designs. Only issue was my friend is a small and they don't sell smalls. I guess it's the whole everything is bigger in Texas. He was able to get a poster though. There was a 30 minute wait but it flew by. You can walk all around the property and also go upstairs to see some life size mannequins of family members. It was such a cool experience. Staff is super nice and accommodating. So finally we get to the food. Delicious. I got the chicken slaughter sandwich. It was huge. We also got the artichoke dip that was kinda thick like cream cheese. We got fried zucchini that was delicious. You get tons of food. This place is an absolute must see if you're in the area.

The staff all seems like they are just...how do I say this sensitively... they're all very anxious/jittery, run around quickly, but can't remember anything... hopefully you can fill in the blanks. The owner is a grumpy pants deluxe and truly seems as if he could care less if he keeps you as a customer. Often his big dogs are roaming the property and run up to you which is terrifying. We tried to support this place because it's one of our only options while we're here, but I just can't anymore.

Our waiter generously offered to take a photo of us outside before we ordered and was very patient with us making sure we got a good picture. I am biased but I think I placed the best order with the tomahawk pork chop. It was huge and I loved it. Great spot for a group dinner or a date night.

The pork chop is always a favorite, the halibut was cooked to perfection, the soup had the perfect blend of flavor, the pasta was delicious, and the fried chicken had great taste!

Motorcycle parking right up front, great views from the covered patio area in the back, and ice cold beer. They also have TV's, a pool table or two, lots of bar seating, nice restrooms and a very friendly bartender. We needed a snack and the fried mushrooms that would normally be about $11.99 at any restaurant/bar in closer to the city were priced attractively at about $6 and served piping hot. We will definitely be back on a day when we have more time to hang out and enjoy the nice weather at this cool indoor/outdoor bar.

We were looking for a nice restaurant that was having a costume contest and decided on Adele's…read more I've never been here before, and I'm always looking to give new places a try! The ambience in this restaurant is great! They have a big bar area, with comfy chairs and tables in their lounge. It's separated from the dining area. There's enough room for live music, which they had on Halloween. Low lighting throughout for an intimate feel. We were greeted and seated immediately, but we were a little disappointed in the lack of attendance at 8:30 PM. We had a couple of drinks and a couple of items off of the appetizer menu, and then ultimately decided to head to Johnson City to see what festivities were going on there. The appetizer pricing seemed a little high to me ($20 each plate) but the dishes tasted good. The croquettes are really rich and cheesy. I didn't get a lot of lamb flavor from the flautas, but they were good. They also had free chicken wings and chips & salsa for their Halloween event. The wings & salsa were excellent! If we had stayed another 20 minutes, we probably could've won the costume contest ($50 prize) because we were the only ones dressed up besides the staff, but we didn't want wait until 10PM. It's a classy joint with a speak-easy kind of vibe. Give it a try!

This is an amazing hidden gem. When you walk in, you can feel an upscale, relaxed vibe. There are…read moremany seating options: the bar, the lounge, the dining area, and the patio (patio does allow smoking.) We went in a Saturday when they had live music. They have local artists come in every week. The music was great and they had the volume low enough where you could still have a conversation if you wanted. The staff was so nice and attentive. They gave great recommendations of the menu. They have an good wine selection. Most of the bottles are from Flat Creek Winery. We had the 4 Horseman which was full-bodied. Definitely would recommend. The baked brie is delicious! It tastes so good with the bread. We had the lemon garlic penne with chicken. The sauce is so delicious and you can distinctly taste the lemon and garlic. The pasta was cooked to perfection. The chicken Marsala was good. Being a mushroom fan, I would have loved more mushrooms in the sauce, but overall was tasty. This was our first time at Adele's but it definitely won't be our last!
