Katie Szrot Met here for a family members birthday dinner, 10 people Apps Plates Mixed drinks We had the most stellar service. It was so busy the manager Tyler waited on us himself. Everything came out hot, fresh, and insanely delicious. The picture is the creole fried chicken. I am so glad I picked this. I also tried the chicken piccata, the salmon, the Irish nachos, the potato soup And then I almost died because I was so full. My ONLY regret is that I couldn’t eat more. WEAR YOUR STRETCHY PANTS! It’s a good time, and the food feels clean so you’re not a mess internally when you overindulge. I love this place. We will be back for you Tyler! You guys rule!

Willydee 727 This is a great place for a healthy meal! Wonderful atmosphere. Joaquin does a great job serving all the patrons. Enjoy a taste of omelettes, English muffins, eggs, Benedict, and other delectables!

Kraker Lish First time here from a recommendation from a store nearby and I was pleasantly surprised at the friendliness of the woman taking my order, the speed at which it was ready, and most importantly, how it tasted! Fresh, hot, and delicious! I should’ve taken a before pic but this is the after….

Marv Mitchell You never go wrong at Texas Roadhouse! There is a reason why the place is always packed! We went for my Mom n laws birthday. Mateo was our server and he was solid. Drinks never went dry and food showed up ready and hot! Love this place!

Monica Delgadillo Miranda We sat upstairs, had a great waitress! We ordered the los lonely and the other burger with mushrooms and we loved it. We shared a side of parm fries and yum! We did order the house margaritas both- on the rocks and frozen and we did not like the at all. The waitress was amazing and changed our drinks. I would definitely recommend this place! The TV upstairs is kind of small so not the best place to watch a game but it’s doable.

Kim Morris OMG! Sits right next to Chilis......why would anyone go to Chilis with this place nextdoor? Wow! Great food, service, and atmosphere. Way more than you can eat and tasty! The corn fritters were amazing. We had chicken fried steak and the Doc Holliday were both amazing!! Highly recommend!!

Kara Passmore Outstanding Experience at Cheddar’s! I went to Cheddar’s for the first time tonight, and in all my years living in Texas, I’ve never had such excellent service and food at such a great price. From the moment we walked in, the experience was wonderful — the host at the front greeted us warmly, asked how we were doing, and even checked to make sure the seats she offered were to our liking. We genuinely felt cared for from the very start. The atmosphere was phenomenal — the lighting was easy on the eyes, the space felt classy, and the music was at the perfect volume: noticeable but still great for conversation. The seating was also very comfortable and stylish. Our waiter, Lucas, was absolutely amazing. He was upbeat, attentive, and checked on us at just the right times. His positive energy carried through to every table he served, and you could tell he truly enjoyed his job. It was also a nice touch that the manager stopped by to check in with us — something many higher-priced restaurants don’t even do. As for the food, everything was phenomenal. The burger was thick, juicy, and had that perfect flame-grilled flavor rather than just a pan-seared one. The fries were crisp on the outside and soft and fluffy inside. The ribs were tender, well-coated in barbecue sauce without being smothered, and had a generous amount of meat — unlike many other places that charge more for less. Overall, this was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. From the moment we were greeted to the last bite of food, everything was exceptional. I’ll definitely be coming back — and asking for Lucas again!

Hangry’s Buffet Hefty portions, burgers taste great, fried chicken looks amazing. Appetizers are shareable sizes, the chili fries were amazing. Very friendly servers, very american themed place, kitchen is visible and open which is always a good indicator that they are clean and very transparent with the costumer. Blue cheese burger was no joke, they filled that thing to the brin with blue cheese! The mushrooms didn’t fit the my wife’s burger, they don’t play around with portions here. Highly recommend for diner/american food

John Thompson Great Mexican restaurant. It is very large inside with plenty of seating.the service was good and the food came out promptly after our order. The food was plentiful, a little more than I could finish. I had the Flameado with chicken and beef. It was very good, but the beef took a lot of chewing.

Anthony (Beer Chronicle) Gorrity A lively spot with quick service, hefty portions, fair prices, and tasty takes on classic bbq joint items. Everything was great here. We’d def be back. They tolerated our big table of 12 with more kindness and patience than most.

Haylie W. Adam and I are regulars at BJ’s, and it’s easy to see why, we always have such a great experience! Both Anthony and Bailey have made our visits extra special. Anthony is incredibly attentive and detail-oriented, he notices everything and remembers exactly what we like. Bailey is fun, lighthearted, and just a joy to be served by; being at our table always feels easy and upbeat with them around. We love that they already know our usual orders when we come in, it really makes us feel like valued regulars. Beyond the amazing service, the food is consistently delicious, the happy hours are fantastic, and the specials are always something to look forward to. BJ’s has become our go-to spot for date nights, and we can’t recommend it enough. Huge thanks to Anthony, Bailey, and the entire BJ’s team for always making us feel welcome and making every visit such a pleasure!

Stacy Horton What a wonderful little surprise in the middle of Denton!!! We ordered a bit of everything! Salmon for the kids, which they loved. The oysters tasted so fresh, no grit! Really well cleaned. Had the Mexican Shrimp Cocktail, it was SPICY and delicious! The fried okra had a nice hearty cornmeal batter and didnt crumble when we ate it. My husband had the fish of the day, cant remember what it was, but it was also good and tasted fresh! Will 100% be returning! We have already told our friends and family about it!
