Usually, I get the chicken and dumplings. I was celebrating getting a new job so, I got the ribeye. I ordered it medium rare. Unfortunately, the cut wasn't good. It was thin and had thick gristle, throughout. I assumed that I would need salt. I asked for flakey salt. The sweet waitress/bartender, brought me kosher salt in a nice container. The salt helped! However, the steak was too far gone to help. It was closer to medium and, again, the cut was bad. (Note: I didn't complain! I'm sure that if I would have, they would have done anything to correct it!) The positives? The green beans were AMAZING! Still a bit crispy and tasted great! The mashed potato's were good. I ordered an Old Fashioned. It was wonderful! The service couldn't have been better! I love the bar side of Wildfire! The seating can be private or meant for people watching. It's very comfortable! All in all, this is the place to go! The service is always amazing! I didn't enjoy the ribeye but, I'm a steak snob. Wildfire will always be my "go to" spot! Sit in the bar area and you will get the best service! Edit to say that the regular bartender is fantastic! He always has been!

The food was great, not exactly what I expected, but maybe better than I expected. I ordered the True Southwestern Omelet. It comes with taters, aka home fries. They were cooked very nice, with just the right amount of salt. The omelet flavor was great as well, and it tasted fresher than I expected. None the less it was delicious. Finally, the orange juice is freshly squeezed and very good! The hostest was sweet and friendly showing us to our booth. Then came our server Sophie. She took our order and answered all our questions. She ensured our meal was a wonderful memory. Thanks 2020 Market Scratch Kitchen and Sophie for a great dining experience.

The place is very spacious, but not too noisy. Their brunches are absolutely fabulous. my husband gets the steak and eggs almost every single time. This last visit I had the banana pancakes, which I would give a three out of five rating as the bananas between the pancakes were a bit brown. The fluffiness is fabulous. The maple syrup is fabulous. I just wish that there were more caramelized bananas in the situation. I've also have had the Benedict here and it was on point and one of the skillets with sweet potatoes were also fabulous. All the cocktails we've tried have been delicious.. Service is always friendly and usually quick.

Gray Orchard is definitely a hidden gem in Round Rock! They've only been open for a few months, but…read moreafter visiting twice, I can confidently say this place is worth checking out! I've tried several different menu items across both visits, and everything I've had has been absolutely amazing. They've also recently started offering brunch on Saturdays and Sundays, and it does not disappoint! The cocktails are another major highlight. Their drinks are fantastic, especially the bourbon-forward cocktails, which I really enjoyed. If you're a bourbon lover, you'll definitely appreciate what they're doing behind the bar. The atmosphere strikes a great balance between casual and upscale. The space has a beautiful, elevated feel without being pretentious. You can dress up or come as you are and feel completely comfortable. It's also a pretty large restaurant with plenty of seating, making it a great option for groups. Neither time I've visited has it been particularly crowded, which honestly surprises me given how good everything is. I'm hoping more people discover this place because it absolutely deserves the attention! Between the delicious food, outstanding cocktails, and great atmosphere, Gray Orchard has definitely earned a spot on my list of places to return to. Highly recommend checking out this Round Rock hidden gem!

The server was very attentive and gave great suggestions. The food was good I would go again but wouldn't suggest on my own! They do have plenty of options to choose from!

Wow. Excellent food and even better service. We started with the beet and goat cheese salad,…read morewhich was fantastic. Personally I loved the focaccia the best, but would repeat both. I have the spaghetti with meatballs (this is a standard by which you should be able to judge if a place is worth it), and my wife got the special - Salmon ravioli. Was the best meal we've had in a long time and every time we come near, to, or through Georgetown, we will be back. Last note: Paul was our server and was exceptional. Very attentive to our table, super friendly, knew the menu well and made sure we were more than happy with our meal. Cannot go wrong with this spot.

My wife and I stopped in on a whim, and we're so glad we did. We absolutely loved this place!…read more The waitstaff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The food was fantastic. I had the rigatoni with Bolognese sauce and added meatballs, which was rich, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. We also started with the truffle mac and cheese, and it was another standout dish. The wine list is thoughtfully curated. While it's a bit on the smaller side, there are still plenty of great options to pair with your meal. Overall, this was a great experience from start to finish, and we'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

Pickledilly, takes good to an art form…read more Tonight I got garlic Parmesan cheese wings (6) with blue cheese dip. And the chicken sliders (4) so much food. The wings. I've been in search for good wings. And they all seem to be the same. Pickledilly's wings are in a food group of their own. First, they are encrusted with real grated Parmesan cheese, not some rub, or sauce drizzled on them. And the garlic is infused. The most juicy thick chicken legs and wings. Absolutely epic. The blue cheese is made in house, very high quality. Enjoyed the wings. Chicken sliders were really good too. The bun is soft and warm. There's a sauce inside with pickles maybe grated. Very small, not sliced, and not chopped. I had to ask, cause I could taste pickles, but couldn't see pickles. I'm not a pickle person, but this was just a hint of pickles, and I loved it. The chicken itself is thin and juicy. Very well assembled. All the flavors mingling together. Outstanding sliders. I was given a glass and a carafe of water. I could just help myself. When I paid, I said I had a $10.00 reward for my birthday. I paid my bill and earned points from this dinner. Sign up is free. Why not give it a try? Everything was wonderful, and I have so much left over. I think this will heat well in the over for lunch at work! Thank you for another great dinner.

Before the business manager had sent a reply with excuses for the improper food presentation and…read moreother missteps for my initial visit... The chef had actually answered and invited me to try it a different time. I did just that a month later... I ordered the same fish and this time it was presented with the skin up and remaining crispy. The seasoning was perfect and the special sauce definitely showed a nice balance of tarragon. The olives in the marination are fantastic. I still would love to have more beans and could eat a whole bowl of nothing but! The fried cauliflower definitely had a nice amount of Fried capers. I sat at the bar and had good service initially, but after getting the drink and the meal, there was no inquiry such as needing more water if the meal was good or if I wanted to have a dessert. The staff was standing in an alcove talking where they could not see me trying to get their attention Only when came over to take care of a new couple sitting next to me was I able to request the tab. By then, I decided I would not try a dessert... Maybe next time! And no, it wasn't busy at that time during the week. There was only myself and two couples eating. I figured perhaps it was a shift change because I had three different gents? All said was glad I tried again and have recommended many others to give a try... Writing this now as I waited to hear from them that they were quite pleased with the recommendation....

Date night spot! My…read morewife and I visited for our 27th anniversary. Soft lighting, but it's not dark, which I appreciate. Brick accents inside with beautiful chandeliers - this place is elegant. Service is attentive and quick. We found the list of cocktails unique and refreshing, not to mention tasty. The wine list looked above average (maybe not "extensive"), but I'm not a qualified expert in the area by any means. The food! We started with the Beef Tartare which was excellent, the toasted bread was good enough to stand alone. We each had a salad that we enjoyed. I had the Salade Lyonnaise, fresh tasting and a perfectly executed poached egg on top. We enjoyed our selections. I ordered the Snake River Farms American Wagyu NY Strip. Honestly, I was expecting more from this cut, it was a bit chewy and I had to leave a good chunk of it on my plate as scraps. To be fair though, it was just listed as MP on the menu and I thought I was going to have some buyers remorse, especially given I was underwhelmed - but I felt it was fairly priced and it was well prepared - just not the quality of cut I was expecting. My wife had the filet and it was excellent, this is likely my order next time. Especially given Sovian offers several different accompanying steak sauces as complimentary add-ons. This is a nice touch! We shared an order of shaved brussel sprouts as a side. Interestingly this is actually one of their appetizers. We didn't find anything in the "sides" that really piqued our interest, but the brussels were amazing. We had ordered the Pommes Frites (truffle fries), also on the appetizer menu - good flavor but I thought the fries could have been a bit crispier which would have made them better. We finished with a basque cheesecake - my wife is gluten free and this comes without a crust. This might have been the highlight of the food - we've not had a basque style cheesecake before though so maybe it is just new/unique to us, but we really enjoyed this. A bit more dense than a traditional cheesecake but not overly rich, I really liked it. I would highly recommend this as a romantic dinner night, but I also felt that the price was very fair given the quality of food and service. We will be back for more casual visits for sure. It's a nice setting, dress up a little as most customers will be dressed business casual and up.

Awesome birthday dinner without the drive all the way into Austin. Our server James was great. We…read morestarted with the creamy deviled eggs. Although great, we wished we hadn't ordered them so that we could save room to finish our entrée. Before getting into the entrees we had cocktails of LA Grande Pêche and V's Dirty Martini. Both were done nicely so we ended up with another round even though they were out of Titos. Between appetizer and main course we were brought 2 types of Amuse LA Bouche. They were a great accessory to have before dinner and both tasted good. For our mains we had the Colorado lambchops with cous cous salad and a prime ribeye. I also added an order of lobster Mac n cheese. It was creamy and nicely seasoned. We finished the night off with a Basque cheesecake. Ambiance was dimly lit with soft music in the background. At some point it changed from what may have been european instrumentals into contemporary jazz. It was a nice touch. Well done Sovian. Will definitely put it on the list of places to return to.

The servers were constantly checking on us, and the meats came to the table on a never-ending pace. In fact, the flow was so fast that we eventually flipped our table flags to red just to get them to pause for a breath. The cuts of meat were excellent with plenty of choices across the board. The beef options were the highlight, but they also brought grilled pineapple, grilled cheese with honey, and delicious shrimp. They have a decent setup for sides, soups, and starches, though you have to be careful not to fill up on those early. The salad bar was fairly light compared to other similar places, but everything on it was fresh and high quality. Overall, we really enjoyed it. It delivered top-tier meat, incredible service, and great value for money.

Don't even go in. The service after the valet is all you will see. This is by far the worst…read morecustomer experience I've seen at a restaurant attempting this level of service. Third time here and the last. I could expound on my experiences at the bar while waiting for it to go while giving them a third try, but I won't even bother because it took four people on their side, looking at one screen at the same time for moments and moments and moments well I just wanted beer I didn't even order a steak salad this time. I just left because I can make a bean burrito and be happier than this negative experience at what it's supposedly a shining star in Cedar Park/ Leander. I've had good food there once and the second time they gave us food because they did not attend to us for nearly an hour. I did not see food or service or anything getting better here. I wish them the best obviously but you are not my cup of tea and I'm sorry that I ever met you.

We frequent Victory Tap since it's near my wife's work and it's a pleasant place to hang out…read more Service has always been solid. Everyone seems upbeat and eager to help, from sampling the beers to recommendations on the menu. This particular visit I was looking by for something different and ended getting the "wrapper". A comforting wrap with everything that chills you out and makes you not want to leave. I should have had this during a game as we didn't have time to hang a longer period of time. But it was delicious. Took half home due to its size lol. The beer selection is pretty good too, so if you are wanting a light beer (try the victory blonde that's in-house brewed) or try some of the variety of IPAs, it's there. There is outdoor seating with additional TVs as well. Definitely worth a visit if you are in downtown Pflugerville.
