    Wow! This place lives up to the hype! Absolutely beautiful, sparkling clean and one of the best breakfasts I've ever had! We started with lattes and the jumbo cinnamon roll "for the table". YUM! The Farm Breakfast followed (basic eggs, potatoes, toast/biscuit and bacon/sausage). Everything was cooked just right. And those biscuits...mmmm! We had a side of sausage gravy, which was perfectly peppered and loaded with sausage. I wasn't sure about the strawberry butter, but it was delicious! Service was prompt without being rushed and everyone was so kind and friendly! Highly recommend this place!

    It was very nice, elegant, food was wonderful. Only thing I could say not so good was that there was only one soup when we came and was hoping for another choice than the one soup that was on the bar. But other than that everything else was amazing.

    We decided to book The Terry Blacks experience. It did not disappoint. We were shown the pits and how the meat is seasoned. We enjoyed that very much. Jorge was very nice and even let us season the ribs that were on the grill. After the pits tour we were seated. There were two platters of bbq and sides. Oh my!!! It was a lot of food. We tried everything. We ate what we could. We took leftovers. There is nothing we did not like. I highly recommend this restaurant. The service, food and atmosphere are top notch. When we are back in Texas we will be back.
