    Fantastic experience! The food was amazing, the crowd was just enough to hear your date, and we even got to meet delightful owner.

    Seared sea scallops

    I found this Granbury restaurant on yelp and thought we would give it a try. We were really impressed by the ambience, service, and unbelievable food. Between six people, we had lamb, scallops, steak, swordfish and duck. Two of us ordered the scallops on butternut squash puree w greens... it was SO DELICIOUS that we canceled the next evenings reservations, to eat at ANISE again. Upon our Saturday night, (second) visit, the chef added veal, so that we might have a different option. This is a small restaurant and the city of Granbury does not allow any signage. It is about two blocks off of 377, near the Granbury square exit. Really worth checking out!

    Goat cheese and honey appetizer, get this!!  So delicious

    The moment you walk in you're invited to a cozy dining experience. The staff was very polite and made sure we were well taking care of. The foods was absolutely delicious! Everything we ate was outstanding! You can tell the quality of food here is fresh. Highly recommend!!! Hidden gem

    Anise owner Megan finally replied to a review I left 2 years ago. Please see the attached picture I attached to see what she said.

    This review is about service and customer satisfaction at Anise. Please look at the picture I attached regarding a message I just received 12/26/2024 from Megan the owner of Anise regarding a review I wrote two years ago. Some of our friends were talking about Anise and encouraged us to visit . So I made a reservation for my wife and I and went there on a Friday. When I got my Amex statement a month later the statement charge did not match the amount I remembered so I found out that I had been charged twice for a jar of honey I purchased. In Megan's Yelp message she said my review is made up because she would remember it. Well I can remember it clearly that the meal was expensive, a long way from 5 stars and the best part of the meal being the honey. The honey was in fact so good that I wanted to buy some and was double charged for it. So I wrote a letter to Anise and included the receipt and requested a refund. After a week or so, I got a reply letter saying it had been too long for a refund and offered no apology. By the way, I am a UT grad, native Texan, veteran, and owner of two separate software companies which we built and sold, and after I retired from business I drove special needs school buses for GISD (certainly not for the money). In my opinion Megan care more about her ego than her customers satisfaction. Go Horns.

    My wife selected Restaurant Anise to celebrate our 33rd anniversary. She has some food sensitivities, so she called the restaurant a few days in advance and the chef was able to modify some of their dishes to be both dairy free and gluten free. The chef also offered to make a custom dessert for her. The dining room only has about 10 tables, but is both elegant and intimate. The servers were friendly, attentive, and very helpful. My wife enjoyed the chilled avocado soup with braised rabbit, frutti di mare, and a poached pear for dessert. I had the mixed greens, bison strip loin, and meat and cheese plate for dessert. The mixed greens were light and flavorful with bacon, blue cheese, and a soft-boiled egg. My bison was perfectly cooked and accompanied by roasted carrots, Yukon mash, and fava beans. My dessert was a flavorful meat and cheese plate. All of our dishes were artistically plated - making dinner an experience for the eyes, nose, and taste buds. Restaurant Anise has a fairly small menu, as it is a small restaurant, but chef Megan Potts changes the menu monthly to provide variety. Overall, Restaurant Anise is an excellent choice for our anniversary dinner or any fine dining occasion.

    Sabayon, caviar and brioche toast.

    We have eaten at Anise 3 times (each month the menu changes) and each visit has been a culinary adventure! Megan and her team really pair together flavors that melt in your mouth and makes you say "YUUUUUMMMMMMMM!" We will not be surprised if this restaurants catches the eye James Beard. 1,000% we will return!

    Sorry for the bite that's gone- couldn't help myself.   Citrus Cheesecake - November menu

The experience starts with the hostesses who seem to think they are working in a Michelin starred establishment. Then the disappointment moves into the dining experience. Poorly cut steaks, and items you'd find in a Cotton Patch cafe. All at a price point that screams "we are in a hotel in Granbury who thinks it is the Beverly Hilton, just minus the money, service, and accoutrements." The difference being that the restaurants in Beverly Hills actually live up to the expectations, and even they aren't so full of themselves. The experience does not even come close to living up to its price and value proposition. Save yourself the time and drive into Fort Worth or Dallas to dine at a nicer establishment that's worth the money and more in-line with the advertised expectation. Christina's: "A little restaurant trying so hard to be something it's not capable of being."

The cocktails were spot on, and the steaks came out cooked perfectly. Most of the sides were great, though I'd probably skip the macaroni next time, it just lacked flavor. The complimentary bread with herbed olive oil was a perfect start to the meal. The pricing felt a bit high for what you get, but the ambiance more than makes up for it. Our server was super friendly and did an excellent job pacing the meal so everything flowed smoothly. The only hiccup was a water glass showing up with bright red lipstick on it, but it was taken care of immediately, no harm, no foul. Overall, this is a lovely spot for a fancy night out with good service. And don't forget to swing by the shop next door to pick up some top-notch olive oil.

I got the New York Strip and my husband got the duck, both were amazing.

The ambiance is very nice too, you'll get this cozy experience from the minute you step in. Totally visit this place, 100% recommended.

    Me and my hubby have been here several times and so far we've liked everything we've ordered. You…read moreorder at the window and either wait or they'll bring it to your car. Pick up or delivery is also offered. Desserts change and depend on availability. We had their Nutella and plain cheesecake which were decadent but haven't seen it offered again in the last month. Today we were told to ask what's the dessert available that day. My favorite sno cone is the coconut with added coconut cream for +$1 more medium $5. Their Peach tea was very good also. my mil liked their BLT which had a lot of bacon. We liked their $6.50 lake tots which are fries and tots in a cream gravy, bacon , and shredded cheese enough for 2-3 people but they were out of shredded cheese which I was told at the time she delivered it to my car. My only complaint is that I wish she would've told me that at the time I placed my order and asked do I still want it or would I like something else, or discount the price by a little. It was tasty but I ordered it bc I wanted something cheesy. I should mention their delivery inside Indian Harbor is $2 and typically Tues- Sun 2:30pm- 7:00pm but may change based on employee availability just like all restaurants that are experiencing worker shortages. Otherwise, they're open Mon, Thurs, Fri 11:30am-8:00pm, Sat &Sun 10:00am-8:00pm, and Closed Tues &Wed. It's a great place to get a sno cone esp saves a drive out of the community onto 377 when you have a craving. Hope this one survives in Indian Harbor where others have failed!
