Just about the most satisfying Italian Sandwich dive that you could find in the state of Texas and…read moreit's right off Lake Conroe of all places. Walk up counter service with a menu split neatly into cold cut and oven baked sandwiches. Going with the Devito, my mind was thoroughly blown by how flavorful the red sauce and meats were all together, it had a combination of textures from the crusty bread cured cuts that made it fun to chew through every bite. My Stallone was also just such a pleasant mix of flavor with the pesto playing a bigger role on the cold cut options. This is one of the places where I feel like you can spin the wheel and get a winner with whatever fate decides. Things seem pretty easy and affordable here. Portions were pretty big here and around $12-$15 a sandwich, more than enough for a single person with some for a midnight snack later. There's a good bit of seating inside with some red gingham table clothes to eat over. It's worth the visit if your in Montgomery or after a day on the Lake!

Tony's Italian Delicatessen definitely delivers on portion size! The sandwiches are huge, and…read moreyou'll likely be taking leftovers home. I ordered the Martin, and the flavor was excellent. My only disappointment was that the menu described it as coming on a crusty Italian roll, but the bread was soft with no crunch. A true crusty roll would have taken it from great to outstanding. The girl at the counter recommended getting the hot peppers so I got some on the side, and she was absolutely right--I'll definitely be adding those to future sandwiches. My husband ordered the Danza but accidentally received the Dinero. He still enjoyed it and gave it a solid 7/10. We also tried the Chicken Parmesan. It had good flavor, though it was a little too bread-heavy for my taste. Overall, the food was fresh, flavorful, and the portions were more than generous. We'll definitely be back to work our way through more of the menu.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen (drumroll) you guessed it...BLUE BELL ICE CREAM!! Spoiler alert they failed to have my favorite daiquiri ice but you're not going to lose me over that. (Hint: just saying for future options. I'll be on the lookout next time I'm rolling down 290 East.) All good and well, the girls behind the counter were attentive and nice. And the restaurant rang of a good place to go after a go hometown Buffalo's Friday night football game. (This is Texas you know.) Thanks Reba (if there is a flesh and blood Reba out there) for expanding to your latest downtown location. LOVE IT!

We told Andy we had never been before and he walked us through the menu and talked with us like he had known us for years. We had the muffuletta and the Italian sandwiches, Italian pasta salad, and the cannolis. Everything was absolutely spectacular. I can't wait to come visit again and try more of the menu. Andy is such a wholesome person and knew just about everyone who walked through his doors. We even took home a loaf of jalapeño cheese bread and jalapeño ranch pasta salad that Andy makes in-house. I can't recommend this place enough!

We were planning a lunch with my dad, who lives 6 hours away and were looking for a place about…read morehalfway between us. Luckily, we stumbled across The Rodney in Caldwell, Texas. Both of us were going to be driving electric vehicles, so charging stations were a big part of our selection of Caldwell, as they had a bank of DC fast chargers open just 2 days before we started planning our trip. When we arrived in town, there was a fairly large police presence at the chargers, due to an anti-Elon Musk protest nearby. Everyone was friendly and well-behaved. After a quick charge, we drove a few blocks to The Rodney. Pahave rking was pretty limited, but a music studio next door was closed for the day, giving both of us a place to park. The Rodney has to be one of the friendliest restaurants I have ever visited! It is run by a couple. The husband is former military and after being stationed in Caldwell, they decided to put down roots there. The husband works multiple jobs, to allow them to follow their dream of restaurant ownership. The day we arrived for lunch, I ordered a pitcher of margaritas to go with our lunch. The owner/husband said the "margarita lady" wasn't at work yet but would be arriving shortly. It turned out his wife was "the margarita lady." The margarita mix is made on-site and was fabulous. I told them they should sell it in gallon jugs. I would certainly buy a gallon every time I visited! I ordered a small pizza, "The Jimmy Buffet" and my dad & wife ordered a burger, "The Stacked." My pizza was great and my wife, who normally eats 1/2 of a burger and takes the rest home for leftovers, ATE HER ENTIRE 1/2 POUND STACKED BURGER! That should give you an idea of how great the food is there. The "Margarita Lady," (unfortunately I didn't get the owners' names) talked with us at our table for a while and we heard that the kids chip in and work at the restaurant from time to time. She also mentioned that they have crawfish during the season. Bonnie, my wife, is a huge mud bug fan, so I can see another visit to The Rodney in our near future. They usually have live music or Karaoke on Friday and Saturday nights and families have a great time there. When I first found The Rodney online, one mention stated that it was the first "destination restaurant" in Caldwell and that's exactly what it is: a place you'd drive a few hours out of your way to visit. It's well worth the scenic, country drive.

The service is always great, the people are well trained and are pleasant to deal with. Ambiance, what ambiance? It's a great place to go get your sandwich and we take it home to eat and watch TV. The one time we ate there, it took away from the glorious experience of eating that mouth watering goodness. There were other distracting people around us and keeping me from concentrating on my sandwich!

Sometimes you just wonder if a place is going to live up to the hype and you sometimes find…read moreyourself surprised to know that it very much so does. For a place that has been voted the #1 restaurant in America before, it was a lovely experience! This location is a little over 30 mins away from me, which is beyond the distance I'm willing to drive for a meal in the middle of the week, but as it was my birthday week I decided to treat myself. And I am so glad that I did. I can say that everything about the experience eating here was pleasant. For one the fact that I arrived here after 7pm and they close at 8pm, yet there was a steady influx of customers speaks to just how popular they are. There was one person in line behind me and I felt bad for them a little because I knew I was going to ask a bunch of questions because I've been looking forward to coming here and it is out the way so I was going to ask the right questions to make sure I got something I liked. With that being said, the man taking my order was very helpful and patient. I know I took at least 5 mins to order yet he was cool answering all of the questions I had. I generally hate when the kiosk asks if I'd like to tip when I'm not dealing with a waiter but the service he provided paired with the amount of questions I had led me to leave a tip. Again I had to drive a distance to eat here so I went in knowing that I was going to be ordering food to eat there as well as being able to bring some home, because there is no telling when the next time will be that I want to make the trek. To keep things balanced, I ordered a cold and a hot sandwich. I went with a build your own for the cold sandwich and went with turkey and roast beef for meats, deli provolone for cheese, spring lettuce, roasted red peppers, red onion, olive smear and house marinated pepper blend for toppings, sub oil, spicy deli mustard and basil pesto (on the side) for extras, all on a crusty Italian roll for the bread. For the hot sandwich I went with the chicken parm and added light red onions to it. I also made my first sandwich a combo with chips and a drink. They serve Pepsi products for the fountain drinks and Zapp's products for the chips. One pet peeve I do have with places is that when I order an additional meat and don't feel like I got extra but instead just less of my other meat to make up for my extra. That is how I feel about the pastrami that I had added to my cold sandwich. Both sandwiches were really good. I wouldn't say that they were the best sandwiches I've ever had but they were solid. The cold sandwich was my creation so take that as you will. The flavors on it was all good, but nothing shooting over the moon to me. All of the food on the sandwich looked and tasted fresh. The hot sandwich is one of theirs with a slight add from me and it again was good but the flavor didn't just jump out for me. Making a chicken parm exceptional takes some work so I'm not mad at what they serve and it is cooked and served with an excellent broil on it. The bread on both sandwiches I will say was a stand out because it held up and had a good crust and chew while still being soft. I will say that I wasn't able to try many of their menu favorites because I don't eat pork, so some of those may be even more delicious. No complaints on any of the flavor but wouldn't have been made at a few more unctuous notes to the palate. I also got the cannoli which was cool. Nothing significant but I'm not mad that I got it. I would also like to note that the bathroom is kept very nice and smells well. I'm 90% sure that someone was blowing up the toilet before I went in yet it didn't stink when I went in. Not sure if they just sprayed a lot or the upkeep but either way kudos. I generally would've gotten food like this to go, but given the distance and that I wanted to get as fresh of a food experience as I can I did dine in. Getting there at the end of the day I was there as they were closing up. As they closed up the staff kept a respectable distance from me as I ate as to not disturb my food with the cleaning. Now that I've eaten here I can honestly say that I get why it has so much hype. Though I wasn't wowed by the food I was wowed by the service and the food was delicious. I'm not sure of when I'll next make the trip here but I do know that I'll feel confident that it will be a meal well enjoyed when I do. Thought I posted this review lol so I'll add to it since I returned again. Again great service and delicious food. The food here is so good and the location is so out of the way that both times I've gone I've left with 2 sandwiches for myself. I again got a Chicken Parm in all of it's deliciousness but this time made my cold BYO sandwich into a hot one and OMG was it banging! This place serves up deliciousness with ease.
