My hubs found this quaint charmer while searching for a casual place to rendezvous with friends nearby! I read most of reviews and was intrigued! EVERYTHING I read about this delightful restaurant was true; right down to the whimsical setting and the 5 STAR service! Emmely earned a generous tip providing OUTSTANDING humorously presented service!!
I ordered the Brisket dinner (see photos) and hubs had daily special: fish filets 'breaded' w Herr's potato chips, of course! And accompanied by wonderfully seasoned al dente green beans and large serving of mashed potatoes piped into plate with a swirly floral design! Nice presentation for 'home-style' cooking! Hubs cleaned his plate commenting it was delicious!!
Being a Texas gal, I am partial to Texas style beef brisket and although this is shredded style beef brisket the flavor was pretty good, portion too large to consume (so I had a delicious lunch a day later!) and came w Cole slaw and sweet potato fries! Both were delicious! AND they have a wonderful house horseradish dip for the sweet potato fries that was 'mouthwatering-great' and I don't usually care for horseradish flavor!!
I highly recommend saving room for either their daily made desserts or the ice cream for which their summer Creamery is famous! We four had ice cream and it did not disappoint; rich flavors blended w high fat content cream made a delightful summer treat! I had mine in a fresh sugar cone and could not lick fast enough!
WELL WORTH the 29 mile drive for us and we are already planning our return visit.
If visiting on a Sunday, I highly recommend arriving at 2:45 to have your choice of tables! They close from 2-3 and it filled up FAST! It is quaint size holding about a dozen tables and has bar seating for perhaps another 10-12.
And if you can't make a meal; you won't be disappointed if you only stop at the Creamery! Some pretty enticing whipped cream loaded desserts were viewed as we exited! I am saving my calories for one of those!!
