Servings were great. They had freezer meats to take home which was cool. I loved the hot line service and desert cooler. They had nice set up for seating outside We sat outside as they closed up just to try some Mac and brisket (1/2lb) - Tender , moist and perfectly seasoned . Mac was just right, tasted baked unlike some other spot who just dump noodles and sauce together. Once home the sides were still warm a couple hours later and tasted just as fresh for dinner! Boozy pudding was good!

Olde Irish Proverb "you aren drinking all day unless you start before lunch. Hondos is so inclined. I'm a fan of live acoustic music and there's plenty of that here today. Tones of Jonny Cash, John Melancamp and such like. Very nice- the crowd is clapping between songs. Update: Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster is considered by the Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy to be the "best drink in existence". While almost impossible to make on planet Earth, its effects really are similar to "having your brains smashed in by a slice of lemon wrapped round a large gold brick."

The mechanics of this place are THE WORST. You stand in line to get a table. Then you have to stand…read morein line to order food (your table wait staff does not enter your order), you have to stand in yet another line to order drinks. Then YOU have to go pick up your food order when it is ready. What's the point in having wait staff and asking for tips when I am doing all the damn work. Extremely Inefficient. This process may have worked 40 years ago but it's super inefficient for today's audience. Shame. Adding to the review that our order was to-go and when we got to our hotel room...NO plastic ware (even though Mac and cheese was part of the order). Who TF can eat brisket Mac and cheese without a fork or spoon. Nothing was added to the bag they gave us. We will never go back. Hope the flavor was at least worth the hassle this time.

The only issue is that it closes early and is super packed on weekends with limited parking. My best option has been coming for lunch when possible during the week. It is absolute heaven enjoying their peach Moscato with a good book while catching some vitamin D as butterflys flutter around me. I don't care what type of day I'm having, this place makes it better instantly. They often have great deals. The last time I went they gave me some free cheese sticks with my purchase. It was very nice of the workers to let me sample a few options before deciding, and the customer service was smiley and friendly just as you would expect for such a classy and beautiful spot. I highly recommend this one if you need to decompress or just if you want to get out and enjoy the sun on your skin.

While in town for our anniversary, the wife and I decided to grab breakfast. Looking for a quaint,…read morenon chain restaurant, I I resorted to ChatGPT. ChatGPT raved about Sunset Grill, so we hopped in the car and zoomed down. Upon arriving, we walked into the cramped restaurant, and we were greeted by a nice hostess. She put our name on a list, and we had a brief 5-10 minute wait before we were seated. We were handed menus and left to peruse the menu. After a brief wait, we were greeted by our waiter and he took our drinks. In good time the waiter was back with drinks and he took our order. I ordered a bacon and cheese omelette. It came with potatoes and toast. The wife ordered the plate with eggs over easy, crispy bacon, and potatoes. The wife and I sat and had a nice visit. We should not have drank our drinks so fast, as they stayed empty the entire time we visited. Our waiter not once made eye contact so we could get a refill either. After an average wait time, our food came. Our waiter noticed the drinks and then refilled them. My omelette was undercooked and watery, the cheese was not melted, and the bacon was chewy. Furthermore, the toast was also very dry. I would have gotten butter to put on them, but the waiter never came back to check on us. The wife's eggs were cooked over hard, the bacon was rubbery, and very underwhelming. Our drinks went empty and we never got refills, again. We paid the bill and went shopping. I was glad to get out of there. I had high hopes for this place based on the reviews, but I think they missed the mark here. ChatGPT did me dirty on this one. I don't know if they just were having a bad day, or what the deal was, but this was a one and done for me. I cannot say I recommend this one. I was very disappointed.

My wife & I visited Granite House on a recent Fredericksburg anniversary trip on the recommendation…read morefrom our Airbnb host and had a great visit. Overall, 1 of our favorite food stops on this trip! Our order consisted of 1 order of bang bang shrimp, 1 spinach & artichoke dip appetizer, a shared seared salmon dish (not pictured), 1 blackberry margarita (not pictured), & 1 blueberry mule (not pictured). For me, the best part of our order was the bang bang shrimp. If I get to go back I'll just order 2 of those & call it good! The spinach & artichoke appetizer was good, but offered a pretty standard flavor profile. The seared salmon was the best salmon dish I've tasted in a long time, paring nicely with the mashed potatoes & roasted veggies that came with it. Both cocktails were amazing, but my wife said the blackberry margarita was fantastic. The most negative thing about GH was extremely limited indoor seating availability & the lack of reservations, but now you've been warned. It was a short trip for us, but we will be back to GH on our next visit to Fredericksburg for sure.

The ambience here gives off the feel of a hunting cabin mixed with Texas pride, and it felt downright cozy. The lady at the front was very kind and welcomed me and took my order promptly. She let me know I could come back for more coffee and they had a bar with pickles, onions and some fresh in-house made BBQ sauce to the left of the counter. The star of the show next to the savory and slightly sweet BBQ sauce was the brisket tacos. These babies come fully loaded and nice and tender. I loaded mine up with onion and BBQ sauce and was in BBQ heaven! I was told they also make their own salsa as well, and have some great homemade desserts. I hope to come back soon and try a meat plate and cobbler. These guys will keep you coming back for more.
