    patty melt

    Decided to try this place for Father's Day, and I'm really glad I did. The food was really good! I especially loved the little salad bar with all the burger toppings--it's great that you can build your own just the way you like it. The fries were great, the onion rings were tasty, and honestly, everything we ordered was just plain good. I'll definitely be back!

    A local favorite for a long as I remember, before we got here and still going after we left. Still every bit as good as I remembered. This place supports the local community and sport teams, with High School teams pictures up covering the walls and windows. Local teams soccer teams pictures and pictures of all the people that support this business. Order at the counter wait for a hot fresh meal. Great food, the best fries absolutely the best onion rings anywhere. Really great chicken strips. Homestyle gravy, bbq sauce, ranch dressing and all the unlimited fixings. I truly miss this place. Great job and keep up the incredible job

    For 25 years I've eaten at Joe Willy's and I would never have given anything less than a five star review! Always great food and a family friendly atmosphere. Cheers to 25 more!

    Burgers are good but not great. The milkshake on the other hand is the best I have ever had. We make the trip just to get the shake.

    I can honestly say this was one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time. My wife…read moresurprised me with a special Father's Day dinner, and it couldn't have been a better choice. With kids at home, we don't get many opportunities for date nights, so when we do, we want it to be memorable and Wade's Landing exceeded every expectation. The atmosphere is warm, intimate, and welcoming from the moment you walk in. Our server, Tori, was outstanding, attentive without being intrusive, constantly checking in to make sure everything was perfect. The food was absolutely phenomenal, with every dish prepared to perfection. If you're a bourbon enthusiast, this place is a hidden gem. They have an impressive selection of allocated bourbons at prices that are more than fair, making it a must-visit for any whiskey lover. What truly sets Wade's Landing apart, though, is the people. Tori, Serene, and owner Stephen made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table. Their hospitality and genuine friendliness elevated an already incredible experience. Wade's Landing has officially become our favorite restaurant, and we'll be returning again and again. If you're looking for exceptional food, outstanding service, a fantastic bourbon selection, and an unforgettable atmosphere, this is the place. Highly recommended!

We were celebrating our anniversary and they had a cute vase with flowers and a personalized note saying Happy Anniversary. We were given complimentary glasses of champagne too, a very nice touch! The service was exceptional throughout the evening. Our server was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu, ensuring that everything was perfect without being intrusive. The staff worked seamlessly, and we never felt rushed during our meal. The food was equally outstanding. Our dishes- Miso glazed salmon and The Landing burger, the appetizer- the million dollar deviled eggs as well as my cocktail- 'It's 5 o'clock somewhere' were beautifully presented and full of flavor. The ingredients tasted fresh and high quality. Overall, this restaurant delivered an excellent dining experience with wonderful service, a comfortable and sophisticated atmosphere, and delicious food. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dinner and look forward to returning soon.

    Saturday night dinner at Belle Vie Bistro was very nice! I honestly would give it about 4.5 stars,…read morenot a 5, as that implies perfection. But they are definitely making the effort to deserve respect. First, we were seated promptly and our server was very responsive, so much so that we hadn't even had a moment to peruse the wine menu before she arrived. I would recommend that the servers be trained to bring water and the bread and butter without asking in order to offer the guests a chance to settle in for a moment. (Fresh french bread and good butter, by the way. I don't usually indulge in that, but I had 2 slices.) And if a guest asks to sample a wine, the answer is always "Yes." They are going to order wine, they just don't know if it will be that one. Both my wife and I started with side salads, which were great. Very fresh greens, and dressings that were obviously made in-house and delicious (awesome lemon vinaigrette on the bistro salad and a truly great Caesar dressing.) I should mention that their wine selection is made up of good labels you probably drink regularly, with a few neat additions that are worth a try. My wife ordered the grilled salmon cooked to her preference, and it was served that way. She really liked the lemon sauce with which it was served, along with risotto and al dente veggies including squash, zucchini and carrots (well seasoned.) I had the duck confit, and it too, was very good. Mashed potatoes made in house (again, well seasoned) with the same grilled vegetables. I appreciate many things about this restaurant. Frankly, I don't understand why it wasn't packed. The lighting is nice, the music is just perceptible so as not to be intrusive. The service is very attentive, and the food is really good. The price point is reasonable. The most expensive meal on the menu is about $35, but they offer plenty of great options for less. Having written a brunch review for this restaurant before on Google, I noticed that they take the input from their clients seriously, and I appreciate that. This is a place that is putting in the work, and it shows. I forgot to mention that they have a barista on staff even in the evenings, and pastries that are made by an actual French pastry chef (I indulged in the Croissant Aux Aumandes on our previous visit, and it is absolutely legit.) Parking on the square in Rockwall can be an issue, and Belle Vie is in the middle of the block, so maybe it is somewhat overlooked, but it is definitely worth a visit. I'll be going back pretty soon for the lamb at dinner time. I also want to try their French onion soup and French dip. You should go. You won't be disappointed.

    This is my 3rd review of Bin 303 and it's the worst…read more Oh, Bin 303......we have lived in Rockwall for 22 years and have been dining at Bin since they opened with mixed reviews but tonight was the "straw that literally broke the camel's back!" I have always been of the opinion that they have always served excellent food but had absolutely no idea how to run a restaurant and tonight was evident of that when we complained to our server that she was less than attentive to our table during the evening. We had to flag down the busboy to order our coffee and dessert, she never came to ask us how our food was, she never re-filled our water glasses and on and on. Instead of apologizing, she proceeded to argue with us. I told her to stop or I would ask to speak to the manager. She then proceeded to go get the manager, Breann, co-owner of the restaurant. After waiting for a while for her to show up, we just wanted to leave and took our check to the bar to get the check rung up so we could leave. Finally, Breann shows at the bar up and again, instead of apologizing to long time customers who have spent thousands of dollars in her restaurant, including a $185 tab tonight, she also starts to argue with us and tells us she viewed the camera and that our server came to our table 4 times during the meal? Really, 4 times, she's impressed by that? She greeted us and she took our wine order, after flagging her down she took our dinner order, after flagging her down she brought us a more wine and she brought us the coffee after we had ordered it from the busboy? And she thinks this is adequate service for an $185 tab? She continued to berate us and argue with us and finally told us she would take care of the whole bill and at this point we just wanted out of there, so we agreed and headed for the door. She then proceeded to follow us out on the front porch of the restaurant and continued to argue with my husband. As I mentioned at the beginning, these folks have never understood how to run a restaurant and treat customers. Unfortunately, they have survived because aren't many above average non-chain restaurants in Rockwall. BTW, what's up with the carpet in the front dining room held down with the gorilla tape?
