2 eggs over easy, beans, very tasty taters and bacon. Could use another strip or 2 of bacon, but it was cooked perfectly.

Portions are plentiful, as the tacos are usually fully stuffed with eggs and meat. Owner is very sweet - sometimes he's the only one running the show, but he can whip out the tacos pretty quickly. They give a red sauce and green sauce to go with your taco - red is spicy, green is mild. Pro-tip: adding cheese to your breakfast taco is an extra $0.50. I also hear their street tacos are really good, so I'm looking forward to trying those someday. Prices are cheap and super reasonable, less than $3 for a breakfast taco. CASH-ONLY, so bring cash with you!

The snapper can be ordered either fried or blackened or battered. The blackened was good, but the other methods were not tried.

I have a 10lb service dog, which she was with me (she detects my seizures), and when we walked in, we were immediately told that dogs weren't allowed in the restaurant. We informs the staff that she was a service dog, and they still declined. Now, I know the laws, and really did not want to get into it, but thankfully the young male waiter who was working said "you know what, I got you guys. Do you mid sitting on the patio?" We had absolutely zero issue at all sitting on the patio. Although, we shouldn't have even had to do that. BUT, the fact that he allowed us to sit and eat with my service dog was appreciated. He was very polite, kind, and professional the entire time. We had zero issues, and my service dog was perfectly fine and well mannered as she should be. We did leave our waiter a fairly generous tip for being kind, and working with us, even tho there shouldn't have been an issue to begin with. The food was okay. Nothing spectacular. But for the town, there's not many options to choose from. Will we stop in again? Not quite sure. I guess it depends on if their staff has been informed and educated on service animals and the laws that's come with.

Grilled chicken wrap. Big as shit.

Drove almost two hours from Houston for their Saturday brunch only to find the doors locked! Big time bummer! Maybe some tragic event? Hopefully not calling it quits! Bay City NEEDS Fat Grass! Went to Waterfront in Matagorda for lunch instead. Really nice, but not Fat Grass. Upon returning to retrieve our SUV from in front of Fat Grass, we notice that, lo and behold, they are opening for evening service. Felt like walking over and asking why their website fibbed to us, but foot hurting from recent surgery, so just traveled on to my parents house for drinks and the Kentucky Derby.... Therefore, not really a review; just a comment on the lackadaisical attitude of management I've come to expect from lesser establishments these days regarding treatment of "valued" customers... Nice job!

With only three restaurants in the small town of Blessing, you certainly can't go wrong with BBQ. You can smell the flavor in the smoke, once arriving at Smokin A's. I just happened to arrive before the long line lunch rush. You order at the counter & the courteous staff members bring your food to the table. Fountain drinks & tea are available self serve. I ordered the brisket & sausage plate with beans & potato salad. The brisket was amazing, tender, flavorful & just fell apart in my mouth. The sausage was also very good & had a tasty smoked flavor. The BBQ sauce was prefect, not too watered down & really enhanced the meal. The beans were also good, but the overly mayonnaise drenched potato salad recipe could be improved. Also, only chicken leg quarters are offered on the menu. No chicken breast option, which is my favorite healthier choice. Still... it was a very good first dining experience! I will certainly try again.
