The place is gorgeous. The old post office is just a stunning building. Our server, James, was…read moreattentive, but not overwhelming - today in many restaurants it seems you can't enjoy your meal with somebody coming to ask you every three minutes if everything is excellent. Now let me tell you about the food. We opened with the crab cakes - they were excellent. Hubbie ordered the Red Fish Pontchartrain and I ordered a custom dinner: Shrimp and sea scallops with the lemon asparagus risotto. Everything was spectacular: beautiful season, beautifully cooked, beautifully presented. However, I must warn you: portions are ENORMOUS. We had to take half of our food home. Still, we decided to order the crème brûlée. Highly recommended! Creamy and not overly sweet. The only thing that we're not outstanding were the bread and the coffee. They could go with a more rustic bread.

It was perfect made, and had great flavor! I had the shrimp and andouille pasta, and my boyfriend had the fried catfish. 10/10 I would eat it every day if I could. We did have a slight problem with the side dish, but the manager went above and beyond to clear up the issue and make it a even better experience, he comped the side dish, the appetizer, and even gave us a free crème Brûlée... which was DELICIOUS! - the staff goes above and beyond even if there isn't a issue, but even if there is a small problem they do everything with plenty of compassion! And I even noticed they held the door open for all customers... you don't see that level of care anymore! 10/10 I recommend EVERYONE to go here! This will for sure be my new go to restaurant!

It was a nice, relaxing experience from the moment we walked in.

Allow me to start by saying I was nervous. Since the COVID shutdowns I feel good quality has…read moreplummeted. Because of that I don't really go out and eat, especially, to places in highly tourist areas, 9 times out of 10 you can expect, almost without exception for the food to taste generic despite at ambiance and visual appeal of the place. Tack on to that, I hate over paying for anything I can do better at home. And I'm pretty good in a kitchen. So with great reluctance I agreed to dinner at the Gruene River Grill. Like many places in a tourist trap the ambiance was good, nailed It. But I expected it. The service was good, as it often is. Unfortunately in a touristy area I don't give restaurants credit for those two pieces. I ordered the pork chaps and my wife ordered the pork medallions. They arrived at the table and immediately I began to realize my negative expectations were being challenged. The food was hot, not warm, hot. The plate visual was beautiful. Portion size, easily for two, at least the pork chops. I was sure this is where the positive experience would end. Then I took a bite. Negative expectations defied! I make a damn good smoked bone in pork chop, but this made mine seem like second hand at best. This was THE BEST pork chop I had ever had. I don't think I talked for the rest of the meal. Delicious! Beautiful. Handled with care. Did I say delicious. Did I say it was better than any other pork chop I had ever had? In case you missed it. It was the BEST pork chop I'd ever had and I just wanted to say, "thank you" to the GRG for such a welcomed and unexpected surprise! (My wife felt the same about her order)

Title: Definitely Not Their Best Night…read more I've eaten here at least four or five times and have always been impressed with the food. It's a casual, family-style environment, including the bar area, which is essentially one large communal table where anyone can grab an open seat. Unfortunately, today was completely different. The moment I opened the front door, I noticed a strong gas-like odor that became more noticeable farther inside. I mentioned it to the staff and was told a manager attributed the smell to being near sewage. That explanation didn't make much sense to me considering I've eaten here several times, they haven't relocated, and I've never smelled anything like it before. I stayed, but then my soup arrived cold and my made-to-order tacos were also cold. I eventually took my food to go. The waitress herself was pleasant, and I still tipped her 30% because these issues weren't necessarily hers to control. I've had enough good experiences here that I wouldn't write the restaurant off based on one bad visit, but between the unusual odor and cold food, this was definitely not the experience I've come to expect.

Absolutely terrible experience from start to finish…read more Our party of three was seated and immediately told the kitchen was extremely backed up. Not a problem but we then waited 30+ minutes just for an appetizer. While waiting, I purchased shots directly from the bar and brought them back to our table. Shortly after, a staff member approached our table and asked to see one of our guest's IDs, apparently questioning his age. He provided his ID without issue and was confirmed to be 24 years old. Not long after that, another member of our party attempted to order an additional round of shots since we had been waiting 45 minutes by now for our entrées and was told he was being cut off for being intoxicated. This made absolutely no sense considering 2 of us had only consumed one beer and the 3 of us had one shot each. No one was causing a disturbance, slurring words, or acting intoxicated. The entire situation felt hostile, unprofessional, and completely unnecessary. Between the excessive wait times, poor service, being questioned after legally purchasing drinks, and then being accused of intoxication with virtually no alcohol consumed, our experience was ruined. It was evident that our waitress was butt hurt that we bypassed her and went straight to the bar for shots instead of her making that tip of a couple dollars off of that individual tab. We paid for what we had received and left before our entrées even arrived. I've never felt so unwelcome in a restaurant. There are far too many good places to spend your money to tolerate this level of service and treatment. I will never return and cannot recommend this establishment to anyone.

This…read moretime we hoped for a chance and man, unfortunately it was such low quality and horrible food and a long wait from when we ordered to when the food came out. We should have known right when the calamari came out. It was some frozen ring concoction - not calamari at all, and the "sauce" was dry and chunky. We also ordered the shrimp jalapeno popper, zero shrimp. All cream cheese - all yuck. We ate one and sent it back with a no thank you! The hot Cheeto boudin was underwhelming. My kids love hot Cheetos and were excited but this fell flat. Crisp crust was okay but the inside was unflavored mush and they are ridiculously huge. Crust to ball ratio is not good these should be smaller and seasoned. My daughter ordered Cajun pasta with blackened chicken and it came out wrong. With shrimp. The waitress did offer to bring chicken on the side but my daughter is just starting to warm up to shrimp so the whole plate would've been sent back, she decided to keep and try and after a few bites said it was not good , pasta was overcooked and she did not like shrimp. I let the waitress know she did not like the taste the shrimp gave after all (3 bites) and asked for tenders instead. The boil took FOREVER to come out. Finally our waitress let us know that they had "made it wrong" and were redoing. By then we were so disappointed in the wait, in the food we had received - after a long river day we were looking forward to a great dinner but this was not it. We asked to take the boil to go as soon as it was brought out. Out of towners beware! Plus, the check came out and the incorrect Cajun pasta remained as well as the shrimp jalapeño poppers. I had to bring up that I wanted the pasta removed for coming out incorrectly and she said bc my daughter ate we could not take off. *_* I was like yea, she tried to push thru and could not. . . She took $10 off. I didn't want to argue on the poppers as well. Overall. We def will NOT be back. None of my party of 4 left satisfied. We all left hungry and this was NOT a cheap meal

It was just me and my son. Update after owners response: either I got scammed by the waitress or they recently lowered drink prices. For clarification I asked for a burger and waitress told me the only option available was the grilled cheese which was not worth $8 in my opinion.

I am writing to share feedback regarding a recent dining experience at your establishment. My…read moreboyfriend and I were looking forward to our visit, as he has frequented your restaurant for lunch in the past and spoke very highly of the food and the location's historical significance. Unfortunately, our experience did not meet those expectations. Upon checking in, we were initially directed to a table that had not been cleaned. When my boyfriend politely asked if we could be seated at a booth that was currently being cleared, the host initially agreed. However, she then seated two other guests, who were white and had arrived after us at that same booth. Given the circumstances and the subsequent request to wait for a different table, this incident opened our eyes to potential racial bias, and we felt it was best to leave and dine elsewhere. I believe your host staff would benefit from additional training regarding equitable service and professional conduct. It is truly a shame that our visit was handled in this manner, as we had hoped for a much more welcoming evening. I wanted to bring this to your attention in the hope that it helps improve your service for future guests.
