    Great North Ennis steakhouse giving huge lodge, cabin, cowboy vibes. The place is always packed at dinner but the wait never seems to be too long. Perhaps because they have a well-stocked bar with good beer and better bourbon selections. Don't skip the Smoked Old Fashioned. Food is great with traditional steakhouse choices and some pricier Wagyu options. When we are there, we seem to settle on a family style board with 2-3 cuts and the Beef Rib. Oh my, the Beef Rib smoked for 73 hours because I guess 3 days isn't quite enough time. Sides are solid and the table typically gets excited about the Brussels sprouts. Jalapeno Cheddar Cream Corn is can't miss either. Service is prompt, friendly and helpful. I'm here at least once a trip when in the greater Ennis metroplex. You should visit too.

    THIS PLACE!!! The Food is TOP Quality! The service was AWESOME! The Ambiance was inviting and Texan feeling Absolutely Nothing bad to say about this place ~ it's worth the DRIVE! Just happened to be local for TX2K Race and had the pleasure to eat here with the T1 Race Development team and racers. Live north of Dallas but the hour Drive to this place is well worth it!

    Burnt ends
    Carolina E.

    For this area this is probably one of the best places but if you compare the prices to spots in Dallas this is definitely a "bottom shelf restaurant". We ordered burnt ends. They were a little overcooked. The flavor was great they had a sweet bbq sauce that was fantastic. We thought to ourselves, it's starting out OK. We ordered a queso, it was velveeta queso... for ~$12 I'm expecting an actual queso. We said- maybe it will get better?!? Forty something minutes later we get our food. I ordered lamb chops. Taste was decent and it had a sauce but the sauce was pretty watery. I had a side of Mac and cheese (no flavor, velveeta was that you making an appearance again?!?). I also had a baked potato which was fine. My husband shared a New York strip medium rare. Part of it came out completely rare. Overall, this is a solid 3/5. There are signs hyping up this restaurant leading up to it saying it's the best steakhouse in Ennis but I think it's the only one in Ennis. . Somehow our meal came out to $100. For this same price there are places comparable in price that are one million times better.

    Holy He**!!! Steakhouse wise HIDDEN GEM! Krista was the server and her personality and personable was 10/10! But the food I am convinced God put his hands on this food! The smoked wagyu ribeye wagyu filet and Big rib plate with 2 sides which are Mac and cheese and Brussel sprouts and nothing disappointed! Cocktails their infused whiskey sour and regular drinks are reasonably priced the ambiance is rustic and fun! They're a bar after 10 and had live music on this Saturday night! Anyone within an hour drive (this was my commute) must try this place! ASAP! Best place I've had in the country as of now at 35.

    Wagyu Tomahawk

    Absolutely delicious! BEST steak in Texas! We split the Wagyu Tomahawk which was phenomenal! Highly recommend the Blanton's flight as well! The atmosphere and ambiance is laid back, warm, and welcoming. What a unique and delectable experience! Waitress was wonderful as well. We will DEFINITELY be back!

    Good food, good service. Bartender was friendly, steak was good. Think their idea of sear and mine are a bit different. But good.

    I tried the waygu ribeye. It was good but nothing special. Certainly not worth $49. Food is good, just overpriced.

    All I can say is WOW! This may be the best restaurant in Ennis. My husband ordered the steak…read moresandwich, and the moment he took the first bite, his eyes lit up. I had the carbonara, and honestly, it was almost too pretty to eat. The service was a little slow, but it actually gave us time to soak in the atmosphere and admire how beautiful the restaurant is inside. The vibe? Absolutely check. The cocktails were not our favorite, but that definitely won't stop us from coming back to try other drinks on the menu. What makes this place even more special is that it's a true mom-and-pop restaurant sourcing food locally. You really can't beat that. Supporting local while getting an amazing meal is always a win.

    I ordered the Steak Sandwich, mid rare, because that's how you ask meat to tell the truth. And it…read moredid. Pink and honest in the middle, warm and willing, bread holding it all together like a good road holding a long drive. Nothing flashy, nothing trying too hard just flavor that knew where it came from and didn't apologize. The arugula salad came sharp and clean, green with intent, that bitter edge that wakes you up a little and reminds you you're still alive. It wasn't there to impress you. It was there to balance things out, like a deep breath between sentences. I drank Earl Grey tea, steam rising slow, bergamot drifting up like memory, like train smoke somewhere far off. It felt right. The kind of tea you drink when you're not rushing anywhere, when the world can spin without you for a moment and that's okay. Fern in the Wild isn't trying to reinvent eating. It's doing something better. It's paying attention. To ingredients. To pace. To the quiet pleasure of a meal done right. I left feeling fed in more ways than one--like I'd stopped long enough to hear myself think. That's rare. That's worth something. I'll be back.
