Mixed fajitas for one
Susan H.

Mixed fajitas for one. The fajitas were definitely tasty, however, the rice was undercooked and the beans were bland. Server was nice and attentive.

Blackberry Cobbler
Constantine J.

There are a lot of different food spots to choose from in the Energy Corridor. This was one of the only restaurants that was still open for different past 8 PM. I was surprised to see that it was EMPTY for dinner when I came by at 7:45. There were probably 4 other guests in the whole restaurant. I sat down at the bar area and Michael came to take care of me. Service was a bit slow which was surprising because no one else was there... took a while to get my water and to place my order. I got the Chicken Florentine with the Texas Smashed Potatoes and Fried Okra. I then couldn't pass up homemade blackberry cobbler for dessert which hit home with a nice scoop of vanilla on top! There's plenty of bar seating and regular dining, it was just quiet and slow. Seems like a good local watering hole to check out.

Chicken fried steak / ribs and sausage plate
Stacey G.

Service was very good here as is the atmosphere. Had the chicken fried steak and ribs/sausage plate. The portions are big and everything was really tasty. The ribs were super tender.

Margarita on the rocks

Public Service announcement!! If Erica is bartending make sure you get a seat at her bar!! The bartender Erica is amazing, we came for a relaxed evening and is super friendly and welcoming offering great conversation and yummy drinks while making sure the whole bars cared for. The wait staff is awesome and very friendly too. Even when crammed with work they never make you feel bad for a question and offer a smile. The foods always that home comfort goodness and the atmosphere is a western home. It's clean and they have great music playing. My only complaint is the actual manager working tonight. I had to ask because all of the workers were busting their butts and working really hard and Dave sat at the front not helping at all which seemed really weird for a manager to not help. Normally places I go to if things need any help the managers don't have an issue. He comes across as lazy and disinterested so if you ever need a manager hope DAVE isn't working. I still am giving it five stars because other than the uncaring lazy manager the workers food and drinks were awesome and I will definitely return to sit at the bar with Erica and have my margarita.

Bun less wonder with creamy coleslaw
Debra B.

Pappy's Café is an excellent place to visit many times because they have an extensive menu. This is the second time that someone in our group has had the Bunless Wonder which is a large Patty of moist beef on lettuce with a variety of ingredients on top. It includes a side. I had the creamy coleslaw, which is excellent. The coffee is good. I did not have dessert this time, but they have a variety of desserts served with ice cream. The service is excellent. We never wanted for anything. It is also a unique café because of the variety of Western items everywhere.

Chicken fried chicken and mashed potatoes
Lina T.

Terry was AMAZING! Hands down the best service we've had in a long time. Super friendly, on top of everything, and made the whole experience so fun. The food was also incredible--every bite was delicious. Especially The chicken fried chicken was out of this world! We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Thanks, Terry!

After hearing non stop great things about Credence from friends and on social media, we finally…read morewent for dinner the other night to celebrate my birthday with some friends. The dining room is chic and feels very upscale but comfortable with a large open fire kitchen that was really fun to watch while dining. They were very on top of service with both our dining captain and waiter checking on us throughout the evening. For appetizers we ordered the deviled crabs, tuna tostada and wood roasted carrots. All were great but I especially loved the carrots which were cooked and seasoned perfectly. For my main course I had the chicken and dumplings, husband got the NY strip, our friends shared the whole fish and we had the cabbage and crab rice as sides. Everyone was very happy with both their main courses and the side dishes. We were too stuffed to order dessert but they sent out a s'mores inspired sunday for my birthday which was both thoughtful and sublime. Overall we were very impressed with our meal. Food was delicious but veeeery indulgent. We will be back.

We were greeted by three different people - one that took our drink order, one that cleared our plates, and one that took our order. All were very nice people and gave excellent service! I forgot their names unfortunately. My receipt said Zachary but not sure which waiter that was. Between me and hubs, we had a Pan de campo, an order of Gulf Oysters "casino", (4) dressed oysters, a 16 oz dry aged ribeye, a snapper entree and a side of crab fried rice. We finished almost everything except a quarter of the Pan, about a quarter of the rice, and about a third of the ribeye. All were great dishes and would definitely order again. We skipped dessert because honestly none stood out to us. He said their popular dessert is the souffle but they were sold out. Our total before gratuity was about $250 and that included one cocktail. Hubs had their "classic" old fashioned which he said was excellent! Overall, highly recommended if you don't mind the splurge or for a special occasion!

They could be mass produced but at least they were seasoned. The fries seemed homemade. The spinach dip was good. It would be better with pita chips or tortillas chips. I used the chips I had. The toast/ bread was fine. Not sure how it would be after a day or two. The seafood mushrooms did not smell fishy. Just needed a little salt. Actually everything could have been better with more salt or spices. Not bland just not memorable enough to frequent.

During the progress of our meal, he kept his eye on the table without being obtrusive, checking on the status of the food and keeping the drinks refilled that's necessary. He is a very pleasant young man, and we enjoyed the service. As a frequent visitor to Cafe Benedicte I know that the food will always be well prepared and served promptly, and tonight was no exception. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals and we had another great visit together in a lovely restaurant. Vahid, the owner also circulate among the guests, ensuring that everything has done to the customer satisfaction. You can't go wrong by choosing Cafe Benedicte.
