Update! The last takeout meal we ordered was the best yet. I had a Caesar salad that was…read moreamazing--not traditional, exactly, but delicious. Cold iceberg lettuce, plenty of dressing (no dinky cups needed) with great little croutons. Made in house? It was that delicious, and grated cheese on top (either Gouda or Mozzarella, but definitely mild and delicious. I'm hungry all over again. I ordered a combo with Canneloni, Ziti and Manicotti, cheesy and delicious as all their food. The best thing was the rolls (complimentary) which were better than ever. Soft and yeasty, buttered and beautifully dusty with Parmesan and garlic. I'm now officially starving! I'm sure we got tiramisu. It's terrific. I've never had a bad meal there, but this was exceptional. These folks are wonderful--and we've seen their kids grow up here. Practically the most wonderful thing of all was the absolutely professional, polished, and polite voice taking our phone order...the little girl who grew up into a polished and terrific young woman. Bravo!

It was lunchtime and it was quite busy. Nonetheless service was impeccable. Everything was organized and spotless. Our server was a cousin to the owner. It seems that it's family owned and operated. I believe everything but the desserts are scratch made. My friends Chicken Alfredo was super creamy...like velvet. My Eggplant Parmigiana was fantastic-perfectly cooked and the Marinara was better than my own!!! We should've stopped then, but we just couldn't ...so we shared a generous slice of Italian Cream Cake. This restaurant is dynamite ....well worth the scenic drive!

The server was attentive and gave us our drinks quickly and food was out pretty fast too. I got the hamburger but everything was super fresh. They were hapy to serve it without the bun and I really liked the aoli. The fries were string style but were cooked perfectly. The decor was nice and the atmosphere calm like it should be. They also have a gelato shop next door. Maybe next time I will get the creme brule. They have a lot of options for food and you're sure to find something great. Parking is on the street. I'd come back.

MidSummer lunch visit to Granbury, TX and I'd read that this cafe had a good menu and outdoor…read moreseating. Sure enough the suggestions were accurate. Typically July is not a month where we willingly sit outdoors for a midday meal, but we'd had a little cool front blow through and the weather was unusually mild. We chose outdoor seating under the covered patio of what had several decades ago been exactly what the name exactly declares ... a filling station of petrol and general automobile servies. This fillin' station has a corner location which also makes is ultra suitable for people and traffic watching. Ordered lunch and drinks, watched the late morning traffic and visisted. A good meal was consumed - hamburgers, onions rings and sweet potato fries along with soda and unsweet tea (this is Texas, no sweetener needed). Clean functional restrooms, pleasant service, settled the bill table side. Parking can be trickey as we were in the old downtown area, but was reasonable.

This spot is very hit or miss. The first time I came here, they were on it with service and…read morequality. Sadly, it was a very big miss this time. I came to pick up a to-go order and asked if there was plasticware in the bag. The guy told me " no we don't do that." Why you wouldn't naturally provide the basic utensils is beyond me. So I hunted the plasticware down and added it. I believe at one point this place cared about service and quality. But maybe that time is gone. The order was smashed into the bag and sauce was dripping off the side. The last time I had a craving for calamari, it tasted soggy and strange. It tasted as if it had been reheated in a microwave. Why is there no consistency, and why have they decided to give up on customer service? I hope they can get their act together. I will give them one more shot and update soon.

Food: I was skeptical of the latte when it arrived because it was so light. I was worried it would just taste like flavored milk, but that was not the case. Nice roasted coffee without being bitter and the salted caramel syrup was delicious. The fruited chicken salad was not my favorite but I would like to try some more of their menu.
