    Cajun Tilapia
    Ken S.

    It's pretty darn good when all 5 members of your party are really happy with their meal. They have a nice salad bar; mine tasted great, by sacrificing "healthy". Then I tried the Cajun Tilapia, just for something different, and was not disappointed! Very high odds that we'll be back.

    Ok so passing thru Giddings on our way home and needed a meal. I'm so happy we chose this spot. CLEAN. From the dining area to the bathroom, everything clean. SERVICE. Friendly staff that checked in on us regularly. They were helpful when we asked questions. FOOD. Arrived hot and in a timely manner. Lunch specials until 3 pm. Chicken Fried Chicken was A+ and comes with a side and choice of Cesar salad or salad bar or soup. 10oz Grilled chicken breast was cooked perfectly! We will be back for sure.

    We were so pleasantly surprised and so happy we decided to stop and eat here as we passed through town. This was amazing. Great salad bar. Steak was perfect. Mashed potatoes delicious. Shrimp scampi on point. Amazing meal!

    Fried fish
    Kacey C.

    I loved the salad bar here! I would come back just for that. The fried fish was pretty good but didn't have a ton of seasoning or flavor. It was plenty crispy but just lacked flavor. The service was pretty good, I don't remember having to wait too long on refills or anything like that. The ambiance was a little off for me. Just oddly quiet and kind of warm in the restaurant which is I guess just personal preference, I just don't prefer to eat in a warm environment. I would definitely come back and be interested in trying more on the menu. I could make an entire meal out of the salad bar though and think I probably will again in the future.

    Fried fish from the freezer

    Stopped here for dinner & now understand why to only order steaks at a steakhouse. I ordered a burger & it was just meat & bread, I had to literally make my own burger. I came out to eat for someone to fix my meal not me so i sent it back. My daughter ordered the fish. It looks like it's pre made & from the freezer. And it taste like it. The potato soup taste nothing like potato's. Clearly it's full of carrots and everything else other than potatoes. The waiter didn't speak English very well so there was a language barrier. When the manager came she was rude and upset. She removed the food reluctantly & then started speaking Spanish to the waiter in front of us aggressively.

    Reba's is easy to find and quite convenient. It's a large restaurant with a very nostalgic feel…read more The place is open and lots of seating. Music is great! We grabbed a menu and sat down. I noticed it's a bit limited on burgers and sandwiches but perhaps good for the area and easy for the staff to make. We ordered and added some pies, paid in cash for the discount and left to fill our cups. The cashier and another employee had conversations amongst themselves while we were ordering and paying. Felt a bit awkward since we didn't want to interrupt their hugging and or whatever they were doing. The sweet tea stayed mostly empty but lots of unsweetened tea. We dove right into our pies first. The Almond Joy didn't taste like the candy bar as much as an amaretto coconut pie but really good! The buttermilk pie was really good too. I ordered the chicken poblano "burger". The lettuce was sadly very soggy as was the whole sandwich. Thankfully the bun was toasted because there was way too much mayo. I noticed right away that it was just bland. The chicken was thick which is great but it was bland on bland on bland. No poblano flavor. I looked for the peppers. They were grilled/sautéed and thin. Soggy sitting under the lettuce. No flavor. The fries weren't anything special but the crunch. The tea was sadly tasteless as well. I really wish there was more to say. My mom's sandwich was just sort of...there. Nothing special to talk about. I'd go again for pie and coffee alone and only if I was desperate for something to eat. There may be better places to eat in town. It's slow paced inside. Good to watch cars go by and imagine what the place looked like years ago.

    OMG! I was not a fan of pizza, that is until I got a meat lover's pizza from Reba's. The crust, not…read moretoo thin and not too thick; Crispy, yet tender and the meat was oh so flavorful, my pizza was baked to perfection. (FYI, I live in San Antonio and am very tempted to take a road trip for my next yummy slice.) Then there dessert...well, located within a rocks throw of Brenham, you know what to expect, and it ain't just yummy cookies and cake. 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!

    Not sure why but the group I was with and myself had had nothing to eat all day and were out in…read moreHempstead for a football game. I really have never gone to Dairy Queen for food only ice cream but the women I was with had certain items they enjoyed so since it was open (and many were not at this time of the evening)-we decided to drop in and grab a bite to eat. Everything was very clean. The young lady at the cash register had only been working there a very few days, but she was doing her best to do a good job which we appreciated. It was also nice to see other employees stepping in to help if she needed it. We were very scattered with our order so that made it difficult for her. Once we finished ordering, I was thinking we would sit down and they would call us for our food but within five minutes of ordering there, it was coming out of the kitchen so I had just gotten it paid for and we were taking it back to the dining area. I had a taco salad. It was small in comparison to other taco salads I've had but it contained all the essential ingredients. They forgot the salsa, but that was OK. The only issue I had with it was the bowl/taco shell tasted like stale oil. Not sure if you've ever had a hard shell with a funny taste, but that's what I would compare it to one of the ladies had three tacos and some cheese bites and she said hers was good. That was her standard go to the other lady had a crispy chicken salad with ranch dressing. She said it was very good and it looked good. All in all, I would say this was a successful trip for what we were after. We were all thinking we were starving ....Dairy Queen fit the bill.
