We weren't sure if the place was even open as the parking lot was empty. The building looks like a big double wide trailer but it was very spacious inside and clean. It seems like a family run business. I wish I remember the name of the young lady who took care of us because she did an amazing job taking care of us from start to finish. We were famished so we immediately ordered some queso to go along with the complimentary chips and salsa. The chips and salsa were really good and the queso was a delicious added bonus. I decided to go with the Mini Tacos Mexicanos for my entree. It was 5 mini tacos filled to the brim with my choice of pastor and carne asada. The meat was seasoned to perfection and sat on soft, homemade corn tortillas. Once I added cilantro and onion, the tacos were perfection. I did find it odd that I had to order rice a la carte. I'm used to rice and beans already included in an entree. No biggie, but just a note. The tacos were so filling that I had tacos to take home. It made a great late night snack when I got home. This random find turned out to be a very nice lunch in Shiner, TX. I would most definitely come back if in the area.

Hidden in a little town, not too far from the Shiner Brewery is this little gem! We found it threw…read moreYelp/Google of places nearby that had some good reviews, and I am so glad we stopped here. The place is quite large when you walk in, it looks like a smaller house from the outside. When we walked in, someone came from behind the counter to greet us and told us to choose where ever we liked, since it was mid-day there was plenty to choose from. When we sat, we were asked our drink order and I ordered a bowl of queso! Which is a white queso!! We were hungry, so as soon as it hit the table, the I dip, you dip, we dip, began!! The salsa is one of the best I'd had in a while. You could tell it was fresh, and had just a little kick in and and the chips were nice and warm, just like I like em! I opted for the tacos with 2 bistec y 2 al pastor! I asked if they did grilled piña for the pastor, and they didn't, I was sad, but not sad when the plate arrived!!! The tacos were plenty filled with lots of meat, and the side fixin's of onions y cilantro. I asked for refried over the regular, because in looking at the photos, I knew the beans were going to be amazing. I started eating immediately! The food was sooo good...the bistec was flavored just right, and so was the al pastor. I'm not sure which I liked more. And that combo with the beans. The only thing I wish I had done differently is add cheese, bc my friend or ordered the taco plate had gotten it on his, and it looked devine! Great stop and if ever in this part of Texas again, will be coming back by!

Tables need to be wiped, floors need to be swept... BUT It's almost 9: 00pm and they're super busy. The cashier was nice, tell her I was here for my pain in the butt order, and she said they were still working on it but I'm in no rush. I'm just going to end up sitting on my butt anyways. I ordered a jalapeno burger with extra everything, with no bun, and a grilled chicken cobb salad. For a burger not having a burn, it's pretty damn good! And this lettuce is like brand new or something! I don't think I'm going to be able to eat my cobbed chicken salads tonight, but I'll have something to eat tomorrow! The manager is so nice, she just came out and checked on me to see who I liked everything! That was nice! Overall, great experience! Thank you Whataburger!

We had a group of 8 adults who had just completed touring 2 of the Painted Churches, in and around Schulenburg. While our tour guide greeted several servers as we entered like old friends, I don't think that was the cause of their friendliness to our group as a whole, I saw them happily greeting everyone and providing excellent service. Our happy server quickly took drink orders, you can tell when a server is confident in her job and knows the routines as she never wrote anything down but when she returned with drinks, the orders were all correct. She then took orders for lunch, we had a variety of offerings from the menu. I decided on the Tzatziki Salad, a nicely presented Greek style salad with grilled chicken breast slices and some tzatziki with pita points. Others around me had the Rueben and the grilled chicken salad and said everything was perfect. I also heard great things about the home made chicken salad and their hamburgers. And if you feel like your garden needs a bit more color, just step into the garden center after lunch and pick out some lovely plants to take home!

I was pleasantly surprised at the absolutely amazing freshness and quality of the food and modern/light atmosphere of this place (a bit unexpected after a few lackluster food experiences in Schulenberg leading up to our lunch here). It was every bit at good as some of the cafes I've eaten in major cities (where there is heavy dining competition). Mom and I both ordered their delicious chicken salad sandwich, piled high (but not too thickly) with shredded chicken on perfectly baked, flaky (but not too flaky) croissant bread. The chicken salad was a perfect blend of seasonings with a few cranberries for a little sweetness. Divine! Each sandwich came with a side of crispy/perfect (seemingly handmade) chips. Our tour guide ordered a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich which she seemed to really enjoy as well, complete with perfectly buttered and crisp grilled sourdough bread. The atmosphere was very modern and new yet warm and dotted with beautiful antique pieces (be sure to check out the old buffet across from the bathroom doors, gorgeous!). And this place seemed packed with many locals in their brunch attire to enjoy the great food and great hospitality of the wait staff. Behind the restaurant, they also host a beautiful nursery where you can browse under the trees through their fairly extensive collection of plants (flowering and non flowering - we saw some variations of native flowering plants we've either never seen before or don't see often so my mom purchased a few for her garden!), chat with the very knowledgeable and friendly owner of the nursery, browse the little nursery gift shop full of unique and beautiful items, and even visit with the sweet "shop" kitties (who seem to like to hang out near the nursery gift shop entrance) if you wish. All in all, a very special experience at this gem in Schulenberg. We will definitely make this our number one stop for meals (and to buy more plants) in Schulenberg when we return!

I usually call in our order when we are about 20 minutes away from our stop. Everytime I call in the order the person on the other end is friendly and repeats back what we order. The convenient store part of Hruska's has a lot of items that you can choose from to purchase and they have clean bathrooms which is a positive. When we get there we park, walk in and head to pick up our food at the counter. It's usually labeled with the ticket stapled to the bag. We then get in line to pay for our food. The line is usually backed up but moves fairly quickly. There is also a small area with tables and chairs that you can sit at and enjoy your meal or sit there if you need a rest. For my meal I usually order a Hamburger which comes with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and onions. I usually get mine with mustard. Their burgers are so good and a good size. Overall Hruska's is a great stopping place while traveling. Whether it's for gas, a bathroom break, or if you want to grab something to eat this is a one stop shop place.

My yelp review about my thoughts of Trump Burger…read more Would I ever eat a burger with a burnt top bun with Trump's name all over it again? My answer would be hell nah and I would rather eat at the worst restaurant I've ever ate at in my life than eat at Trump Burger again. Or even eat my own dog's poopoo would be better than eating at such a big beautiful establishment. But with some thinking I decided to only go for the Roland's Deportation with NO KINGS combo meal and an ICE tea which is by far the best meal on the menu and the greatest combo meal found anywhere in the world to enjoy for limited time before they close up shop. The service was a bit rude there but at least the combo meal was good enough to enjoy before seeing Trump supporters throw ketchup all over the walls with some confusion about the owner's deportation and claiming the immigration system is rigged against the owner and that the ANTIFA Democrats are just out to get him.

Good solid bone-in fried chicken at this local joint…read more As of March 2021, they've closed the dining room so I drove through. The menu had a good range of choices and combos. I ordered my standard order at a new place: chicken breast, fries, and a roll with a drink for $4.99. The chicken was quite good--hot and crispy with just the right amount of crust for my taste, and just the right level of seasoning. Not bland, but not over salted or complicated. The meat was a touch dry, but I was there midafternoon when chicken wasn't moving fast. I still found it very tasty. The fries were quite fresh, hot, and delicious. I'm a little suspicious of the seasoned salt they used, since MSG gives me a headache, but no headache so far and they tasted great. The roll was the standard boring white bread throwaway. I wish more places had biscuits! But all in all, a solid choice. I'd go back if I'm in the area.
