Been going here for years and always get the pecan crusted chicken. The loaded tater tot apps is a knock out the park too. Go enjoy the barn for some craft beers read more

My family absolutely LOVES The Frio Grill! After a long season of softball/baseball, it's the PERFECT place to go! The food is amazing! The service is fast! And there is a large open space for fun, laughter, and joy! It's by far my personal favorite place! read more

Food was delicious! We tried nothing but apps because it was an apps kinda night...did not disappoint. Shrimp were delicious, bacon cooked perfect, grilled onion...very tasty! Mac & cheese balls w/brisket...need I say more? Yum! We ordered the pretzel...lemme tell I don't live in Cypress but willing to drive to Cypress for this damn pretzel, it was that good! Stuffed tater tots were very good, just wished there were more! We were expecting a basket of messy greasy goodness and got a more refined version, but still delicious! Beer was great, nice and cold...Grace was our bar tender and she was awesome...let us try samples before making our selections on beer. She made us her Grace special original Pixie shots...did not disappoint! Ambiance was laid back...sat at the bar and enjoyed live band across the way right after. Will definitely be back...if for nothing else, that pretzel! read more

Everything was great! They let us take our dog... They had excellent food, excellent service, chill ambience! Definitely recommend. If you're looking for a bar with more than just fried food... or a place to day drink and relax, give it a try! read more

This place is loaded with atmosphere and I felt good walking in. Now this might sound a bit crazy, but I love picking up my cutlery and finding that it actually has some heft to it, and that's what I got with my knife and fork. LOL Mr. Picky really liked his shrimp tacos and I thought that his chili rice and black beans were really excellent when I stole bites off of his plate. I ordered the stuffed chicken fried chicken and was very pleasantly surprised. They substituted sides for me so I had green beans (very fresh and flavorful) and onion rings with it. Although I'm not usually a lover of white meat chicken, I actually found this to be moist enough to eat, I liked the Gouda stuffed inside and the outer coating was fried beautifully crisp. I particularly liked the gravy that they used and asked for extra so if you order this do the same. It had a nice peppery aftertaste and I asked if it was the same gravy that they use on their chicken fried steak. It is. For dessert we shared the sooapilla, strawberry and whipped pie thing, and bread pudding. Hands down, the moist warm bread pudding with ice-cream was by far the best. Overall, this was an enjoyable dining experience and we'll definitely plan on heading back. (Brunch on Sundays only.). Based on dining, it should be rated higher than a "3.6" so give it a shot when you're in the mood for some down-home cooking. read more

I am pleasantly surprised by this country-style place! Breakfast/brunch on Sunday morning was DELICIOUS! We arrived just as they opened up and were seated immediately. Our server was sweet and attentive. I started with a cranberry mimosa. I LOVE that they filled my regular glass instead of using a champagne glass! Yum! I ordered the delicious chicken and waffles and added a side of eggs. My husband enjoyed his omelet, especially the made-from-scratch biscuit. It was huge! Overall, we were quite happy with our brunch. It was a bit of a drive but well worth it if you're looking for a hearty meal without the big crowds! read more

Eh. Looking at the menu you'd expect the food to be incredibly tasty and well prepared. It was average at best. I think they told me that most people get their chicken fried steak or chicken. Since that'l seems to be their thing i probably won't venture away from that IF i go again. The place is extremely close to my house so it's convenient but I've honestly been underwhelmed the 3x I've been. The people are nice though. read more

Really enjoyed lunch at Frio. Stellar service by Steve! He really was the highlight of our visit. Very attentive and food was prompt. Hamburger was grilled exactly as ordered. Chicken strips were perfect as was Caesar salad and yummy Mac n Cheese. We had some littles with us so loved the outdoor play area. It was a little early for a cold brew but it appeared this would be a fun night spot as well. Overall great service, strong menu and fun! read more

The food and service have been great each time we come here. The atmosphere is very comfortable and spaced out so that you don't feel like you are sitting at the other table next to you. read more

Frio Grill - Frio Burger - Southern Near Me - Cypress, Texas

Okay maybe it isn't a solid 5, but it is a lot better than a 3.7! This restaurant is sooo Texas. It is quirky. Fried pickles and chicken fried steak sandwiches, a dessert called the Texas State Fair with fried oreos twinkies and snickers bars, and mystery cans of beer for $2.50! In these days of corporate similitude I have to salute a restaurant who will deep fry a twinky or two. Service was excellent. Mystery beer was "three on the tree lager" out of Blanco TX. They built it to look rustic. read more

Kendra is amazing & brunch is always the best!!! We love the food!! The staff is top notch!!!

Kendra is amazing and everyone is so great here. They always take care of us! The food is great too.

The ambiance and the service are great- I want to like it so much! But the food is just not great. I've tried it twice and brunch was definitely better than dinner. I know rent is high out here but there is definitely room to level up on the quality. I'm not giving up- bc the atmosphere is awesome and at least part of the year you can get excellent crawfish nearby. read more

The food here is very good--but unfortunately, the service leaves much to be desired. I placed a pickup order and arrived a bit later than scheduled, only to be told it would be a few more minutes. I waited nearly 20 minutes before asking again, at which point they found my food had actually been sitting out for almost an hour. I asked for a fresh order to be made and was willing to wait again--still not a big deal to me. However, the manager then called me and became argumentative, insisting the order had been ready on time. I explained that I had waited an additional 20 minutes, and the food had been sitting at room temperature far too long. I was only given the option to accept the hour-old food or receive a refund. I chose the refund, because I value my health--and clearly, this restaurant doesn't prioritize food safety or customer care. Sadly, I won't be returning. read more

Frio Grill absolutely nailed the Frio River theme, the nostalgia was intense. Our waiter, despite being extremely busy was very attentive and seemed happy to be there. The Mac N' Cheese balls are AMAZING. Not only are they fried to perfection, but the Mac itself is tasty with a hint of spice. Not your everyday Kraft for sure. Stuffed Chicken fried Chicken, a solid dish. No complaints, loved the Gouda and the French fries are actually seasoned and enjoyable. If you're a fry lover like myself, definitely get some. My mother ordered the Pecan Bourbon Chicken, it was a bit sweet but a nice meal. If you're more towards savory I suggest just going with the chicken fried chicken. Drinks were good too. We will be back. The environment alone is worth it. 10/10 experience. read more

We had a good time eating here. The food was delicious. The service was amazing. The restaurant was clean highly recommend it.

Food was okay. The burger was overcooked and fries were over seasoned. The manager was our waiter, who provided subpar service. We requested the check and didn't receive it for 25 minutes, before approaching another waiter for help. Great idea, great location, okay food, poor service. There are much better options in the area read more

This was my first time a Frios Hill Country Grill, and it was getting late, so I didn't want a heavy meal. Luckily, the waitperson was Kendra and Kendra recommended the Shrimp Tacos and the Chicken Tacos. The Tacos were out-of-this-world good! The service was good, too! Kendra was very attentive to us as customers in spite of being very busy on that particular night. I would recommend Frios to anybody, because the food is good. The service is good, and the atmosphere of the restaurant is cool, too. I will definitely be returning to Frios in the near future! read more

We came here Wednesday night for a going away party for friends and sat outside under the awning near the front door. I will say the turf area is great for the kids to play and hangout while the adults visit however the little fans they have didn't help much at all and they didn't have the umbrellas up at the picnic tables. Our server was very sweet and remembered our names however this isn't the first time that everything just takes so long. The wings were great just over priced, shrimp tacos were tasty however I felt there could have been a few more per taco to make it worth the $$. The kids burgers and strips are always amazing! This is a great spot to meet up with families just wish the service wasn't so slow and anticipates the guest needs a little better coming from someone in the restaurant business. read more

Unfortunately this place was not good at all. I was excited it to check out as it was recommended. Service was bad, it took a good 15 minutes before someone (maybe the manager) to come to our table and ask if someone came by to get our drinks. We told him no, he stepped away to get paper to write down our drinks. We got the smoked wings and trio chips with salsa for appetizer. Omg it was horrible!!! Smoked wings was soaked in bbq sauce. I didn't expect the smoke wings to be soaked in sauce. It also was dry, like they cooked it before letting it thaw out. It was disgusting. Salsas were likely store bought and white cheddar queso was runny. Such a disappointment. I got the Caesar salad with grilled shrimp. Thank goodness that wasn't bad. My son got the chicken fried steak which he said was ok. It was a complete disappointment. read more

We tried the bone in pork chop, and it totally exceeded our expectations. Seasoned and cooked to perfection. Very tender & juicy. The sides were great too! read more

Very spacious and looks like a fun kick back spot. Looks like they have concerts in the back and they have lots of outdoor seating. Servers have great attitudes and were pretty efficient. We were pregaming and we went there for happy hour but I wasn't very thrilled with my drink. Skimpy on the alcohol, lots of ice and small. I got the house margarita and asked if they had strawberry and they added a very small splash. Ended up having to drown it with a lime to balance the taste. My watermelon salad was very refreshing. Good size portion and love the different textures. read more

Amazing staff!! Had an absolute amazing time with Katy and Kendra! The bar staff is incredible! Hailey and Grace are fantastic!!

The staff at the check in have no idea how to track available tables. The wait staff had to seat us at available tables that were readily available. Food is great read more

We went here for our SILs concert that was being held next door at The Barn. I ordered the Rockport fish tacos with green chili rice and black beans...woah! The rice has this subtle yet deep flavor that knocks your socks off! My husband ordered a burger medium rare and it was cooked perfectly! And don't get me started on the onion rings...obviously, fresh made and nice crunch. Grandkids loved the desserts! Even with three small children, our service was impeccable. Atmosphere is fun with a large grassy area for corn hole. read more

So, from the photos this place is not what you expect when you arrive. No pavement in the parking lot so if your car is freshly washed, it won't be anymore all dirt parking. From reviews & photos it appears to be a bit more upscale that it is. Not that that's a bad thing if that's what your looking for. The light fixtures are made from buckets, tables are hard wood, silverware is not shined (didn't appear to even be clean) but ok. Moving on. The atmosphere is very down home & country. They have an awesome outdoor patio that is very large and a fire pit for winter, very nice. So if you want to just hang out in your flip flops and relax this is your place. The wait staff was super nice. The waitress Angela was outstanding, generous with menu suggestions and let us know about Wednesday steak night and happy hours etc. She checked on the table and made sure everything was ok. Another lady who appeared to be the manager was also great, very friendly bringing the check and said goodbye from way over at the bar when we left. The food was actually tasty. Everything hot and all condiments arrived at the same time as the food. It's rare that you go to an establishment and get all of your condiments on the first try. FOOD: Smoked chicken quesadilla, rice & beans: Very tasty, you can actually taste the smoke in the chicken and nice amount of cheese this is great for an appetizer though because it's flatter than 1/4" (hints the 3 stars). The rice was tender, moist, salted and flavored nicely, beans also tender and flavorful. If the quesadilla was a little thicker this would be 4 stars. Chicken Strips & fries: Very nice, thick chicken breast, hand breaded not out of a bag, fries freshly cooked and seasoned. No complaints here. All in all this is a great place to hangout for no reason, a great local hangout spot, very much appreciated. Nothing against the place, just speaking the truth here. Enjoy the hangout time. read more

Food tastes great & it's family friendly, the kids enjoyed playing in the yard while we listened to live music!

Came here for dinner on a Saturday night and were able to get in with no issue (there was no live music going on). They have a couple large lots for parking, but even then it gets quite crowded! The place is deceivingly large - tons of indoor and outdoor spaces. If the weather is nice, this would be a great place to hang out on their large patios. For food, we started with their stuffed tater tots (basically like a loaded baked potato in tot form, delicious) and then I had the chicken fried steak for a main. The CFS was massive - easily 2 meals worth, and came with mashed potatoes plus an additional side of your choice. All seems to be made fresh in-house - no complaints here! Service was fast and friendly. read more

This place has wonderful food and service. Our server was attentive, made small talk, asked about us, and provided us the history of the restaurant. We ordered fried pickles, pecan bourbon chicken, chicken fried steak, and the pull pork sandwich. All items had great flavor and were served hot and fresh. I will say, I made a mistake in not ordering my own pecan bourbon chicken entrée. I tasted my son's dish and it was outstanding! No complaints on my selection.... I just can't wait to visit again and order my own Pecan Bourbon Chicken.... We went on a Sunday and will consider this a new local favorite. read more

Delicious! From appetizers to desserts! Great service! Such nice ambiance. Lovely ppl. Feels like home.

Great beer and drink selection, bartender was very friendly and made some great beer recommendations. Dinner service was a little slow, but it gave us time to chat. The Compuesto Flameado & fried pickled okra are both incredible apps - I couldn't get enough of the Compuesto Flameado - one of the best queso dishes I've ever tasted, and the chips are thick and delicious. We both had the West Texas Pecan Crusted Bourbon Chicken, it was ok, I read some iffy reviews and still tried it, wish I would have gone with something else. It was super thin and dry, had ok flavor. Great place to hang out and I will definitely return - for a 5 gallon bucket of the Compuesto Flameado!!!!!! read more

Frio Grill - Pure refreshment!!! - Southern Near Me - Cypress, Texas

The food was good, the drinks are good, the service is good, the atmosphere is good. The kids enjoyed the place and so did we. It's just expensive for what it is, not to mention having to walk on a dirt road meaning your truck/car will have dirt footprints inside...not cool after paying to have it cleaned. So, 4 stars turned into 3. I don't mind dirty on the outside but I want clean on the inside, especially just because we got a bite to eat. Raise your hand if you know what I mean. read more

Every trip to Frio has been enjoyable. Service has been great (Rachel is our favorite waitress...we request her every time!) The food is good and the drinks are tasty. We enjoy sitting outside and letting our daughter play in the grass area. The food is good and very fresh, but you're paying for it. This place is pretty pricey. read more

When we came in, there was a big party standing in front of the hostess station. We decided to stand off to the side because we did not want to block the doorway. Just as the big group moved away, a lady stepped through the door and just cut in front of us. The hostess said absolutely nothing and just led her straight to a table. When the hostess came back I mentioned it to her and she just said that she didn't notice it at all. I don't know how she couldn't have noticed. This happened right in front of her. I don't know, maybe she needs more situational awareness. The brioche French toast was great. Crispy bacon totally awesome. Hubby liked his chicken and waffles even though they're still not the same chicken and waffles to which he is accustomed. I loved my mimosa and hubby said the spicy Bloody Mary was good. Music was a little too loud. It gets pretty crowded so need to get there early if you're hungry. Our waitress was great. Would have given 5 stars but this was our first time visiting and I just can't tolerate rudeness so I took off 2 stars. read more
