Place wasn't busy in a Saturday. Ordered food I ordered chicken fried steak wife ordered pizza…read more About 10mins later I was severed my plate. I waited a solid 5-10 mins for wife's food and had no choice to start eating as it was getting cold. I finished my meal and still no pizza. Was told 3 more mins and about a solid 10-15 mins later her pizza came out. Really need to work on timing of food I guess... wife had to watch me eat mine and now as I'm typing I'm waiting on her to enjoy her food... Beer was ice cold. Chicken fried steak was amazing and Pizza pretty darn good the ranch is good!! saved it from a 1 star review. Waitress was good nothing she could do it was all on kitchen poor timing... Price wasn't terrible but nowadays you can't leave most sit down places with out spending over $60 or so.. For maybe 4 tables full and a couple at the bar. Sad to say this place won't last much longer.. it's good food but over the hour we've waited/ate it was just to dead to survive.. if it was in Stephenville I'd bet it would be packed and doing well!! Just a poor location.

We ate here today. We had the Southwest Cobb and the two patty burger no bun. We have been on…read moreKeto for several months so finding low carb options can be challenging. The young female server initially told us the cooks don't like substitutions or changes. Which I told her was not something we hear ever or from a new business. She returned saying they would substitute the fries for asparagus which was all we asked. I was taken back by this but maybe it's inexperience. The salad and burger were tasty. My husband had a ice tea and me a vodka soda. The total was $43 dollars. The inside is large and can accommodate big parties. It's a good option in the area.

The only downside during my visits would be people smoking directly outside the entrances. Since the restaurant uses large open garage-style doors, the smoke easily drifts inside and can affect the entire dining area and bar. For those with allergies, sensitivities, or anyone who simply prefers not to eat surrounded by cigarette smoke, it can really take away from an otherwise great experience. A designated smoking area farther away from the entrance would go a long way toward making this already awesome place even better. Overall, Blackie's is a fantastic spot with great food, a fun atmosphere, and definitely worth stopping by!

Unfortunately this trip as far as food fell extremely short for all of us. There was some good on this trip. It is still a cool little spot on 67. Maybe to just have a few drinks and maybe chips/salsa/queso if ever go back. The waitress Brittany is what saved this review from being 1 star. She had an awesome demeanor. Brittany was very attentive. Kept drinks filled and frequent checks on us. Now for the bad. Nobody liked their meals. Burgers and sandwiches had no flavor at all. Tater tots, fries and the overly cooked/burned onion rings had no flavor. When a child tells you the chicken fried chicken in a sandwich was hollow and tasted like air that says a lot. It's almost like they didn't care about the food that is served. Really disappointed because we don't get in that area much anymore and looked forward to going back. Don't like leaving negative type reviews but sometimes especially now days with cost of dining out you really expect to get what pay for.

The menu was varied with options we liked. The prices are more in line with a restaurant in a large city, but worth it. Our dishes, the burger and chicken fried steak, were well executed and plated. The stand out for me were the drinks and thoughtful service of all the staff. The bar program is on point. I cannot imagine dining anywhere else in Smithville.

The chips and hot sauce was the first indication that we stopped at the right place. I ordered the Tex-Mex Plate to give myself a little variety. I ordered a beef enchilada, a chicken enchilada, and it came with a crunchy beef taco, beans and rice. Everything was really good, but the chicken enchilada completely blew me out of the water. That was the best chicken enchilada that I've ever had. I'll definitely stop in again to eat when I'm in the area.

Great atmosphere. Fantastic service. A bus load of people no problem here. Thank you my friends.read more

After waiting for an hour we got our food, and it was ok. Nothing special. The wait was unreasonable, given the fact that we were the only patrons the whole time we were there. When our check came, it was $89 for one steak and carne guisada. The waitress just smiled and laughed when I asked if there was some mistake. "Yes, the 'market price' for the ribeye is $49" Kinda explains why no one else was there. If you want ordinary food at eye-popping prices, ZJ's is the place to go.

Absolutely terrible. We pulled up at 5:40 on a Saturday night and were the only ones in there. It…read moredidn't take us long to find out why. Prices are ridiculous. Food looks nothing like the pics they have on Facebook. Charged us $.25 for a lemon in our water. Charged us $.79 for butter to go on our baked potatoes. Sirloin steak looked like it was bought from one of those frozen meat trucks. Would bet money the shrimp came from the frozen section at Walmart. Unbelievably bad. Very disappointed.

Every single bite was fresh and flavorful. The crust was spot on--crispy yet chewy--and their ranch dressing was so good it could be bottled and sold.
