Another neighborhood gem that we have been meaning to go to for so long, and the wait was…read moreabsolutely worth it! This is a small place, so basically we have 6-7 tables and we went on a Friday afternoon after lunch rush and got the last table. The word is out! The folks inside were super nice. Wife got the empanada appetizer as she was not super hungry, but that was still more than enough for one person. I got the Ajiaco and I will happily recommend it to anyone!! One thing that I want to point out - if you have not had Latin American cuisine it IS NOT like Mexican cuisine and it IS NOT spicy! Take a trip to Colombia in Allen! We will be coming back again!!!!

Maybe we ordered the wrong things because the food here was extremely disappointing. We originally…read morecame because it had 5 stars. We ordered the breakfast arepa, the eggs Benedict and an order of pancakes. The arepa dish was absolutely flavorless. The brisket was tender but had no flavor whatsoever. The arepa was too hard to cut into so I had to just pick it up with my hands. It came with breakfast potatoes that were fine. The eggs Benedict was not cooked right, at all. A poached egg should be soft & runny on the inside and as you can see from the picture, the eggs were overcooked. The pancakes were fluffy, dry and flavorless. It came with a side of whipped cream which saved them. The best thing about the meal was the blackberry- limeade drink, which is sad because unless the place is known for beverages, it should not be the star of the show. As a positive, our waitress was very nice. We were excited to try this place but as no surprise, will not return.

First timer! Visiting the area and our friends could not stop raving about this bakery - and I see…read morewhy! Absolutely DELICIOUS pastries. Good coffee too. We tried their: - traditional croissant - chocolate almond croissant - blue cheese and fig danish - **kouign amann - **blueberry cream cheese danish - cappuccino Wish we had more time to try other items off their menu. Will definitely stop by the next time we're in town. Really like how you can pre-order off their website too. Til next time!

I was literally driving down Virginia when I rolled down my window and asked one of the ladies who…read morework there if the sourdough bread was good. She smiled, walked over to my car, and handed me a box of assorted pastries and said, "Today is your lucky day!" When I tell you everything in that box was absolutely delicious, I mean it! Every pastry was fresh, flavorful, and made with care. What started as a simple question turned into one of the kindest customer experiences I've had. Today truly felt like a blessed day because I stumbled upon an amazing local bakery with incredible people. Their generosity and hospitality made my day, and they've definitely earned a lifelong customer. If you haven't been to Bresnan Bread & Bakery yet, do yourself a favor and stop by. You'll find amazing baked goods and even better people!

Delicious flavor! We just moved to the area and have been looking for a good gyro place! This was…read moreso tasty! The hummus is so flavorful, so much that even my husband who doesn't care for it, ate it all up! We had a chicken plate, a beef gyro, shawarma beef plate and the dolmas! I added pictures but I was half way into eating when I realized I need to make a review!

It was Great! We walked in and were greeted with a great smile and Welcome in! The place was…read moreclean and bigger than I expected. You can watch them make your food so you know its fresh. They offer you fresh choices and can add or substitute if you need to. We got the Gyro Sandwich Combo and fries. The fries were so hot and tasty and they offer a few different ways with toppings/seasonings. Very delicious. We also got he Chicken Plate. The salad was so good, the dressing on it was bomb. The only draw back is they only offer Pepsi products. They do have a side fridge for can and bottle drinks so Hopefully in the future they offer some coke products. OHHH in the bathroom they have a Bidet. So cool. I wish we lived closer because we would be regulars weekly. Give them a try.

First time visiting March (2026)…read more This is my new favorite pizza place. FRESH ingredients, they have to be made daily, the taste is so superior & clean - hands down some of the best pizza I've had! You can tell much love is put into the food Im giving this 4 stars for wait time/service - While I do understand good things take time, I believe they open at 4pm - a couple times I've ordered around 5pm, told could be a 45 min wait that turns to an hr & more. Then you get there, it's not a sitting type of restaurant - you just pick up. I've been there when at least 10 other ppl are waiting as well... it seems they are so good, either a bigger space is needed or more staff to accommodate. I say this also cause the last couple times, a younger lady is checking out clients, seemed she had to be new & somewhat confused as to working the front. Overall must try their delicious pizza!! Order ahead, run some errands, then pick up - is best

Meh.. I heard amazing reviews from my friends and was excited to try the pizza, but it was ok…read more.. the dough was too hard for my taste and wasn't a fan of the cheese or the pepperoni. Maybe it got cold by the time I came home and tried it? But it's a pick-up only location, and i live like 13 mins away, so idk how to make the experience better. I did see some people getting the sandwich, and they looked really good. I do want to revisit to try the sandwiches, but the pizzas are unfortunately a no for me. The service was decent. The store is a tiny, super cute pick-up location.

We dropped by lunch and we were we did. We found this Turkish and Kurdish restaurant tucked away…read morein a little shopping strip. We were seated right away. The inside was much more elegant than we expected. We started surf with Hummus and Baba Ganoush Sampler. It was tasty with a Turkish twist. Then, we ordered to Spicy Chicken which was made of chicken thighs. You could tell the chicken had been soaked in spices over night. We also had the Muklabah. It was a tasty dish of rice topped with meat, eggplant, and onions. I would highly recommend this dish. We finished off with a Rice Pudding Dish and Baklava. Everything rated like it was made in house. I would definitely come again.

The rice it came with was fine but thought it could use some flavor since it was bland. Appetizer sampler was good but $25 was steep for just 4 dips that weren't too generous and only 2 pita breads. Overall food was fine but thought it was overpriced for the quantity. Service was good and they explained the menu well and were attentive.

We've been meaning to go to Hamm's for a while. And we finally made it. We went on Saturday at…read morelunch hour. The inside seating area was full. They were super busy. We got great friendly customer service. We ordered a Smash-burger, fries, and a Wagyu cheesesteak to go. Hamm's absolutely did not disappoint. Their menu is small, but that's what makes it so good. They're focused on providing the best quality meat for amazing flavors. Sorry there's no picture of the fries. They were seasoned perfectly and we ate those right away.

**UPDATE***…read more Re-visited this location with my friend and had a MUCH BETTER customer service experience! The establishment actually reads its reviews. I will say, this is a class act establishment. My initial experiences were with a particular individual. The situation was addressed internally and that person has acknowledged their part in the interaction Make sure to check out this hidden gem in Downtown McKinney! You will love it!

Back at The Guava Tree, and once again it satisfied the craving for good Cuban food!…read more This time we had the Garlic Chicken with black beans and rice, Vaca Frita, and Plátanos Maduros. The garlic chicken was tender and flavorful, while the Vaca Frita had that great combination of seasoned shredded beef with crispy edges that makes the dish so good. The maduros brought the perfect touch of sweetness to round everything out. Being of Cuban descent, I always appreciate finding places in North Texas where I can enjoy some of the Cuban dishes I grew up knowing and loving. The Guava Tree continues to be one of those places. Good Cuban comfort food, plenty of flavor, and another enjoyable meal. There is a reason we keep coming back!

This place is more like a 3.75 out of 5 stars…read more happy we stopped in while checking out downtown Mckinney. Outside, i didn't even know it was a place to grab food, it looks very unassuming. when i walked inside, i also wasn't sure it was a place to get food. i legit thought it was a home good store/market. it has a rustic vibe inside. But we ended up getting one focaccia bread and a jalapeno/ham grilled cheese. one thing i didn't like was the wait. I saw the sandwiches and thought it was going to be quick to heat them up.... no, it took around 15 mins to get out food. I assumed it was taking a while since they were making it from scratch. At least the food was delicious. I do like they fact they give a small chocolate chip cookie with each order. As mentioned earlier, its located in the heart of downtown Mckinney. Parking may be hard during the weekend, so you may need to park a bit away.
