    CHICKEN FRIED CHICKEN
    Aleeza A.

    Very much so a normal American restaurant. Been twice now and first time got from the lunch specials a chicken fried chicken with mashed potatoes. Breading on chicken was rlly good but wish there was more flavor esp in gravy. Second time ordered the philly steak and was good but again just average.

    Wonderful shrimp with platter- couldn't eat all of it so taking a doggy bag. My male server was great!!!

    Great food today ! I'll be back often! Great prices and portion sizes. Visited the Clute location and Leslie was the best !

    Good food, excellent service,cool atmosphere, will definitely come back again. The turkey sandwich was great.

    NACHOS

    We've ordered here several times lately but the latest was definitely a miss. Included sauces were left out, the burger arrived very very dry, the Tex mex coleslaw was included in the same hot styrofoam container as the meal instead of its separate cup as usual. As a positive, the steak fingers were very good. Oh, and never order the "nachos". Just take some tortilla chips from your pantry and sprinkle some kraft shredded cheese and a few pickled jalapeños and microwave instead

    Chicken fried steak with baked potato.

    I love the chicken salad in all forms and fashions. This place is a diamond in the rough.

    Good food and service can't go wrong with their menu. Just go hungry and the portions won't see like the overwhelm you.

    I haven't had anything I didn't like. The best item is the cream of poblano soup! It's to die for and shouldn't be missed

    Best poblano soup ever! Service isn't great but the food is. Tuna Ole in the avocado is what I typically order... with the soup!

    Beware the salads are heavy on mayo and not much flavor otherwise. Popular spot though!

    Seems like a neat place, we must have just come at the wrong time of year. Sunny outside, but air…read morewas chilly and a bit windy. Our greeting when we came in was not the most friendly, woman behind the bar didn't even smile and mumbled something that I assume was our greeting. Our server, though nice, seemed very new and inexperienced. But she seemed to be nervously trying to do a good jobl My drink order never was what I ordered. I think there was confusion with the server and woman behind the bar. Our server didn't seem old enough to serve it to me, it was broght over by bar tender. It was pricey for not ever really getting what I requested. The day we were there, they had one of the garage doors open and the front door as well. It was so cold in there, we almost left to go elsewhere as I suspected the food would be cold before it got to the table to be eaten. After our 2nd request, they finally closed the one garage door,, but was still a bit chilly. Then they told us they just put the heater on. (the heater helped but have entry door open to bring food in from food trailer) We didn't realize the food was made in an outside trailer and walked inside. I got the crawfish tail ? Ettofee baked potato ? Ettofee sp?. Although The potato was well baked, and the sauce was Very good, there was only 4 or 5 very small crawfish tails on it. I ended up taking it home with me as it just wouldn't stay warm enough for me to eat more of it. I wish they would of had some type of thermal box, or cover to bring the food in from the outside trailer to the table... My husband had a mushroom swiss burger which was good, and some really delicious flat shaped fries, but again, keeping our food warm enough to eat it was not the best situation. There were some really good looking things on the menu, but it was just too cold in there that day. During nice weather, I'm sure our experience would have been much better, as it seems like a really nice place with a very nice patio with great view.

    Had a little staycation in Galveston for NYE. We took the south route home and wanted some lunch…read more Belly's popped up on the map and it had great reviews so we stopped in SO WORTH IT! Their patio and views were amazing and so relaxing. The cutest restaurant indoor/outdoor. We also had our dog which they accommodated with some water. She also made friends with the sweet manager Erin (i think! Hopefully we got it right). Food was good and vibes were better. Will definitely be stopping by next time we are going to or coming from Galveston.
