Bucket of beer for $20 !!!! Awesome !!! Heading to Fredericksburg, a little kick start!!!
John D.

Just the right portion!!! Great taste!!! Fast service and very polite staff!!! Their dessert options are amazing as well!!!

Staying in Brenham for a few days and was recommended by the locals. It was easy to find and there was ample parking. There was a short wait to be seated and our server was very polite. There was a pretty good crowd even as we entered the final hour of operation. We ordered a chicken fried chicken and a ribeye steak. Both were tasty but the sides of green beans, corn and broccoli were just OK, as if they were from a can. The interior was simple, farmhouse chic. Definitely recommend this place if you are in the area and looking for some good ol' southern home cooking.

The food here was so yummy. The hush puppies were the best! Service was pretty good. The host was super friendly and welcoming

We hit the spot after a band concert at the college down the street. We waited at the hostess stand and the sweet girl had to answer the phone, take online orders, AND do her regular hostess duties. She was doing a good job trying to juggle it all but we were finally seated by a waitress. Our table was in the front room which was much more pleasant and bright than the main dining room. Although you are seated near the bathrooms and parking lot, it actually wasn't too bad as far as establishments near a highway can go. Our waiter was very attentive and pleasant. We ordered fried pickles which were just regular fried pickles. Edible. We were going to order salad but figured we were at a place that is probably known for stick to your ribs kind of food...we ordered chicken fried chicken and chopped sirloin steak to share. They were both good. I liked the broccoli. The squash casserole wasn't my fave. They brought rolls as a little starter; which was a general dinner roll. They were warm and the butter was tasty. What butter isn't tasty? Am I right? It's a good next to the highway joint. Drop in if you are traveling or need a quick bite.

Good southern cooking in Brenham, Tx. This place was full in the mid-afternoon on a Saturday. The waiter said the chicken fried steak was their most popular dish so we tried it. It was big and flavorful, and could be shared by 2 people. The Mac and cheese is amazing. Get 2 sides of that versus the mashed potatoes which were just okay. The service was good too. We didn't wait long for our food and we had a party of 6. Easy in and out off of hwy 290 with adequate parking.

Grilled chicken sandwich
Susan H.

Driving thru town and met a friend for lunch. Cute place. The server was quick & nice. Food came out fairly quick. Hubby had the chicken & dumplings lunch, my friend had the light grilled chicken with rice & green beans(no pic) and I had the grilled chicken sandwich. They were both good. Friend's meal looked good too. Good home cook style meals.

We have noticed this place several times on our travels back and forth between our home NW of…read moreAustin and our grandchildren in Houston. I always try to be supportive of small, locally owned businesses everywhere I go. Look at some of my other reviews, it will bear this out. For once, it wasn't a Sunday when we were passing by and we weren't in a hurry, so we thought we'd stop for lunch. It looks like everything you'd expect for a barbecue restaurant. Everything rustic and country. There was a menu painted on the wall with no prices anywhere. They have a nice selection of sides in meats. My wife ordered the 2 Meat Plate with Brisket and Sausage, Potato Salad and Pinto beans. I was thinking about Pork Butt; however, when I saw it , I decided to pass. Strike 1! I ordered the Brisket Plate with Black -Eyed Peas and Coleslaw. When the young woman handed it to me, It had Pintos on it rather than Black-Eyed Peas. When I cited the error she indignantly snapped, "That's what you ordered!" Strike 2! (who argues with civil paying customers?) I said, " I'm not trying to be any trouble. I just want what I ordered." at which point the older woman told her to give me a side of Black-Eyed Peas, which at this point seemed completely academic. We found a table, found our way to the drinks and also to the Barbecue Sauce and various condiments. I really wish I could say that this was the best Barbecue that I ever put in my mouth but unfortunately, I have to say just the opposite. Strike 3! This is singularly the worst barbecue experience that I have ever had anywhere in Texas or elsewhere in the country. The Brisket was gray, dry, and there wasn't a smoke ring in sight. It was no better than the Pork Butt had looked to me, in fact it was probably worse. My wife loves Sausage and she is not as discriminating about it as I am, but she said that was the worst Sausage she ever bought from a Barbecue Restaurant in her life, and she's the lifelong Texan in this couple, not me. I see mixed reviews out there besides my own and I'm wondering if perhaps the problem here is just inconsistency with the food because other than that and the little service blip, this wasn't a horrible meal but it was pretty far from a good one. Sorry Nathan's, I so wanted to like you.

We came here for late lunch on a Saturday and it was pretty empty. It is attached to a gas station,…read morebut has their own entrance (you can also enter through the gas station as they connect on the inside as well) and a BBQ pit that you can look at through a window (it wasn't that exciting). They menu is right when you enter and then you grab a tray. I got some meat by the pound and really enjoyed the burnt ends! The sliced brisket I got on the other hand, was pretty dry. I loved that you get a drink included with your purchase. There was plenty of room to sit inside and you buss your own table at the end. The staff was friendly and there was ample parking in the back for this place and the gas station it is attached to.

Brenham grille is located in the St Ant Hotel Building in the adorable old town of Brenham, Texas…read more The wait staff is really nice and attentive. The decor is cute and comfortable. However, we felt like our food was just OK. We got the calamari and there wasn't anything unique about it, but it was good. My Caesar salad was a little odd. It did not taste like Cesar at all. The lasagna was just ok. We were quite disappointed in the chicken fried steak. It did not seem like it was seasoned at all, the batter was very bland and unfortunately, adding salt and pepper didn't do much because it would've been better if the batter itself was seasoned. I would return to this location, but maybe not have my hopes up so much to have a good meal. The prices are fair for what you get.

We had a few people cancel before coming in. Once again, nobody answered the phone before we arrived. The server wasn't inviting when we arrived. He said, you told us a table for 15. We ended being a party of 9. We had mediocre food and rude service. They weren't friendly, our server took our order and never came back to check on us. We could hear how he spoke to other customers too. We did actually get our water refilled from one of the other staff. The server didn't offer us any dessert. We felt rushed to leave. One guest asked for dessert and he said they one had one type of dessert. The staff at the hotel wasn't friendly either. We stopped by to look around and not one person spoke to us. We left and went to Must Be Heaven for dessert. We should've gone there for lunch but we wanted to support another local business.

This is an update to my previous review from earlier in the summer. Unfortunately today's lunch was…read morerather disappointing. I had a cheeseburger all the way and a side salad instead of french fries ; although my salad had a nice amount of croutons and vegetables, their house made honey mustard dressing was absolutely awful, and either had too much vinegar or not enough honey.; it was almost in edible ; it was only 1230 on a Monday afternoon and they were already out of crackers, so no crackers with my salad; , when I received my entrée, my cheeseburger was oddly cooked. It was on a hoagie bun, and the meat was well done on one side of the patty and medium on the other side so that when I bit into it, there was an actual crunch on the well done side, the hoagie roll was either stale or Cooked too much to the point that I could not eat it. When I complained to the waitress, she said it wasn't her fault that she simply wrote down the order and the chef cooked the food; at least the waitress was able to provide a fresh bottle of ketchup... apparently there was a drunk man in the bar spouting off because the entire restaurant could hear his rant. No effort by the wait staff to quiet him down. They just let him go on and on. I'm sure I will give this place another try, but I hope the wait staff can take some responsibility for the quality of the food. This waitress is pretty chatty with her customers so I'm sure that she isn't hurting for tips; if I'm served a meal like this again, her tip will be quite a bit smaller than usual.

The waiter we had was young and this might have been his first service job. I had to call him for assistance, due to being busy and it wasn't that full. Other things tried, hamburger steak and scallops. But very good. The interior is dated but clean.
