I love coming here specially when there’s seating in the patio. All of their food items are solid. Specially their house biscuits and potatoes! Their coffee is pretty good and love the atmosphere inside and out!
Beautiful outside patio area surrounded by a lush vegetable garden. There are a couple of chickens and a child's play area. The inside dining area is cozy with comfortable booths. If you want to eat in the garden on a weekend, make reservations!
5/5. For brunch, I tried the Chicken Fried Steak and eggs and it was solid. I liked the Shrimp and Grits better though. But the Parmesan Breakfast Potatoes and the French toast….will have me coming back EVERY SINGLE TIME. It is so good and The patio is amazing. I would say it’s only worth to come here for the patio. They have fans outside. They have a beautiful garden outside that supplies their herbs and vegetables. And I believe our servers name was Holden and he was great! We added on French toast late and he made it happen to where we only waited a few minutes. For peace of mind, I would make a reservation if coming on the weekend.
Great food and atmosphere. The fried Okra was so good! Make sure to check out the garden in the back too
Yummy food and cute bar area. Jaime was an excellent host/ bartender. Would absolutely return if not just for the delicious handmade blackberry tart! 😋 …
I came here with my boyfriend and we loved it so much we decided to bring our friends here for New Years. They were able to accommodate for 13 people (we emailed ahead of time), and provided efficient space for us to enjoy our food and time together. Their sweet potato pancakes are nothing but delicious and memorable! This has become a new staple brunch spot for me and my boyfriend! Love it here!
We went at about 2 pm on a Saturday so were seated right away and asked for outside table. It was an unseasonably warm day and we enjoyed the patio and sitting near the garden area. Food arrived hot and fresh. Service was friendly. Best part was we did not feel rushed and enjoyed the chill vibe. We had our granddaughter with us and were able to entertain her by visiting the chicken coop and walking around the garden. It has been several since we last were her and found the parking situation much improved. Overall, we were delighted to rediscover this place.
Patio seating is cool especially low 80s temp in Dallas. As a Gardner I appreciate having meal in a garden. I loved sweet potato pancakes, side of potatoes. I think they can do better job with Bloody Merry.
Fabulous comfort food restaurant and neighborhood gem. More commonly known for its lunchtime crowd and brunches, it is also a great dinner destination. The Frenched pork chop with red cabbage was excellent, particularly with a side of their whipped mash potatoes. Their chicken and dumplings is also an excellent choice. Give it a try!
Omg.... this is the best pancake ive had ever in my life... idk what's in it maybe its the syrup... Service was great... THIS ARE THE BEST PANCAKES YOU WILL EVER EAT, the eggs need some season salt... but overall im impressed its either a 1 or a 5 with me... I didnt have a wait because I was eating solo... didnt get a chance to check out the beautiful back... but the food is amazing... I will bring everyone I know here and it will be highly recommended...
