    Lemon-pepper chicken is always moist and delicious. Best chicken-fried steak, just because of the gravy. Love the sautéed almond green beans too.

    PECAN TREAT!!! Amazing desert that I would kill for. Haven't had any food I haven't liked yet. Order all burgers on Jalapeño Bun.

    Pecan chicken and fajitas are good. House margaritas are alright. The micheladas are better. Also their roasted salsa is very good

    The fiesta burger is awesome. Also get the bucket of destruction. On tap beer is second to none.

    I was at first ecstatic and actually looking forward to eating here but became very disillusioned quickly. First by the server and then the food.

    Kids eat free on Wednesdays and Saturdays mornings for breakfast. Don't miss their hot sauce collection and 2 types of onion rings.

    The Golden Tee drink is pretty good. The fajita chicken nachos are ok the chicken on it is not that good. The chicken fried chicken is very good.

    Try a local brew with your meal. They carry Southern Star and No Label beers from Conroe and Katy respectively.

    An unparalleled Texas-brewed beer menu. Pretty impressive for an otherwise unassuming establishment!

    The BBQ rib quesadilla is amazing! It almost makes up for the small children that are usually running around the restaurant.

    Today's meal was not that great. Had to send chicken back for being pink inside. Service was slow. First time I've had bad service and food here in a long time.
