Enjoyed the country cooking and great service. My husband had a hamburger and I had the light breakfast plate.

This place is closed. Went at 5pm on a thursday. No lights no signs. They need to let people know they are close. Waste of time

Service was prompt and friendly, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. I had the pulled…read morepork platter, my son ordered the brisket platter, and my husband had the pulled pork sandwich. Our sides were cole slaw, baked beans, and mac n cheese, all delicious. FYI, the slaw is a sweet, creamy style, so if that's not your thing, choose another of their sides. The baked beans have some of their shredded BBQ in them, which I like (some folks don't). The BBQ was hot and juicy, and they have bottles of their sauces on your table, so you can go nuts if you like a lot of it. One last FYI, your bread choices are Texas toast and cornbread. But the cornbread is a johnnycake. Granted, I like johnnycakes, but some people are not fans. The meal was filling without being heavy. And I could have had a gallon of that sweet tea! Our waitress was sweet and friendly, and overall, we had an enjoyable lunch. We will be back! P.S. --- The bathroom was nice and clean as well as easy to find.

I'm sorry but we stopped in Cave City for the night and this BBQ joint was right across the street…read morefrom our hotel. We walked over and got seated right away. It smelled great and the food we seen delivered to other tables also looked great. We got a sample platter with ribs and brisket. The ribs were over cooked and chewy and the brisket was a lot of fat. The sides were just ok. Maybe it was just an off day for them because I see a lot of great reviews. We stopped in later in the evening so that may be the reason the meats were off. Again, not thrilled with our meal here, but may give them another chance earlier in the day.

Great service, good food, low prices!…read more Set in a repurposed gas station, The Dog Pound is a nice spot to grab some good BBQ in Cave City. It may be your only spot, but that's not a knock on it. It was a pleasant August evening, so we grabbed a booth outside beneath the canopy that used to shelter drivers gassing up. The menu is straightforward. I was shocked at how low the prices are, particularly for the quality. The pulled port was good, but the sides is where it's at! Don't miss the cowboy beans which were fantastic! The potato salad was unique in that it let the eggs flavor come through. Plus, they have Ski! Service took maybe five minutes from our order to our table. Also, friendly and helpful! Very impressed!

I wasn't originally going to go to The Dog Pound but when the restaurant I first tried wasn't…read morepet-friendly I ended up at The Dog Pound and boy I am not disappointed! The staff is super friendly and jumped up to assist me when I walked in. It smells amazing when you enter the door like smoked meats. I ordered their pork shoulder special with baked beans. It was so flavorful and so much food. There was enough leftover to make another meal. It was hard to stop eating because it was so yummy. Another couple walked up while I was eating and I was telling them how good the food was. They said they knew and eat there at least once a week. I can see why! They are pet friendly and allow dogs oustide under the patio area. This was a delightful spot where the staff makes you feel like you're at home and the food is absolutely mouth watering.

This is by far my family's favorite Mexican restaurant. We come here everytime we visit Cave City…read more The food is just amazing. I ordered the Joel special which was amazing. I haven't tasted any dish like this before. It had a nice spice to it and pineapples! I love pineapples in dishes. My daughter got the Carne Asada wish she enjoyed but thought it could have been seasoned a bit more. My husband ordered the Burritos Mexicana which he enjoyed but wish it came with rice and beans because they have very delicious rice and beans. We highly recommend the chorizo queso - a great dip with their yummy chips. It was a lovely night so we were able to sit outside on the patio. Our waitress was very attentive as our drinks were always filled. Other servers also came by to make sure we were doing well! I really appreciated the great service. I highly recommend this restaurant for great food and service!

Our server was friendly and attentive, keeping our drinks refilled and checking on us at the perfect times. Everything we ordered was delicious -- the chips and salsa were fresh and addictive, the enchiladas had just the right amount of spice and cheese, and the fajitas were sizzling hot with perfectly seasoned meat and veggies. The margaritas were strong and flavorful too. Overall, the food quality and portions were excellent, and we left feeling very satisfied. My only tiny complaint is that I wish there was a bit more guacamole with our order -- it was so good that we could have easily eaten double the amount! Definitely recommend El Mazatlan if you're in the Cave City area. We'll be back soon!
