I was trying to pass time to avoid traffic into Houston so I decided to stop in Caldwell to do some boutique shopping. Caldwell has some awesome boutiques FYI!. I was looking for a late lunch/early dinner and decided I wanted some steak. Now this place is by no means fancy but it's definitely hometown feel and obviously a small town staple. I ordered the filet mignon with mashed potatoes and vegetables. Yall 12oz for $26 dollars is an absolute steal. I was worried about the quality due to the price but I was impressed! The meat was good the mashed potatoes tasted sweet though so not a fan of those. But for $26 I wasn't even complaining. Now back to these fried pickle, I text everyone I know "I just found the best fried pickles in Texas" as I scarfed them down. If you are ever passing through you must stop to grab a basket of them. All of this and my total was around $35! The service was efficient and friendly 10/10 recommend!

The lemon butter was put on heavy and it ran into the rice and steamed vegetables just added that extra pop that made me eat too much. Salad was right portion and fresh with extra dressing (and crackers) this is Texas we eat crackers not croutons. I've been to restaurants that I've had more salad on a hamburger than they brought out lol. The place was very clean. Waitress was very professional. My tea glass never went empty and I typically drink 4-5 glasses if they are smaller than a mason jar. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Mom got fried oysters and the mahi. I got to take her mahi home for supper. 6 oysters filled her up with the salad. I'll drive past all the chain restaurants to get here. Only thing they need is a few hammocks on the porch for a siesta.

The rest of the family really enjoyed all the jambalaya and blackened chicken. They even stayed open late for us because My soon to be niece graduated and that was her favorite spot and they went through so often that they close the store and let us stay. The people could not have been nicer. And the bread pudding was amazing. It's like a sports bar with a great big screens to watch the games and a full-size alligator above the bar very cute. I like it and there are tables further away if you want slightly smaller place and maybe a little more quiet, but who knows. We are definitely going back.

What a great experience we had here. First off, Aja brought us to our table and was friendly as…read morecan be. Our waitress was Leslie and she was so nice and super friendly. We told them that we were visiting from out of town and they were a wealth of information giving us suggestions on what to do. Then we had dinner we started with the calamari which was so fresh and delicious. I had grilled catfish with veggies and truly enjoyed it. The veggies were cooked just right. Not soggy but crisp and delicious. The fish was cooked just right. Hubby had the same only he added the étouffée to his and truly enjoyed it. If you want a great dining experience, check this place out.

To be honest the bread was adequate and I skipped on it. I only ate the shrimp. But darn it was good. No, I don't have a problem with bread, or gluten. If they had used an Amarosa roll I would be giving a "10," but they didn't. 2nd trip; this is just a solid place. At least for the two occasions I was there. Good cook days. Services were fine. The waiter we had was young and this might have been his first service job. I had to call him for assistance, due to being busy and it wasn't that full. Other things tried, hamburger steak and scallops. But very good. The interior is dated but clean.

We had to ask multiple times for items we had paid extra for. The biggest issue was the timing of the food--some of us were served while my mom and all of the kids didn't receive their meals until much later. By the time half the table had finished eating, they still hadn't been served. On top of that, the flies were horrible and made the experience even more unpleasant. It also wasn't particularly busy when we arrived (we came before the rush), which made the experience even more frustrating. Overall, it was a letdown, especially for what was supposed to be a special double birthday celebration.

They start you off with a complimentary little cup of hot seafood broth that's so deeply flavored and warming. They have excellent micheladas, too. The caldo 7 mares is an impressive mix of fish and shellfish but be warned, it's very messy because everything is in the shell. The empanizado Baja style fried shrimp were crispy outside and juicy inside. The octopus pulpo de mojo ajo was tender and complex and cooked perfectly. The fish tacos were fresh tasting and yummy. We shared a large platter (ceviche milotero) with the table, which was amazing. Fresh shrimp, fresh avocado and cucumber, tomatoes, onions, and oranges. Wonderful aguachile marinade soaking everything and served with fresh tostadas. The only disappointment in the meal was the rice, which was overcooked and flavorless. Note there are only seafood dishes here - no other proteins except chicken wings, and no vegetarian options. Highly recommended for excellent Sinaloa cuisine.
