“Had a great lunch! The hostesses opened the doors for us as we walked in and we were seated within a couple minutes, despite having a large party. All of our orders came out correct and they were all really delicious! Our waitress Alyssa was amazing and took really great care of us. The manager, Adam, also stopped by to make sure everything was going well. It was a wonderful dining experience, will definitely be back!“

“The food was fantastic, I had whole grain blueberry pancakes with an omelet and I'll definitely be visiting again. The service was alright for how busy it was, but was noticeabley slow. The atmosphere was nice but it was very crowded when i and a friend went. We had to wait for about 45 minutes for a table for two. Otherwise, it was a good experience.“

“We brought a lot of people 6-1-2025. Jeep group meet up. They handled the crowd well. The burger and tots were tasty.“

“The service was excellent and the Chocolate Old Fashioned was amazing. Can’t wait to try the burgers they looked delicious.“

“I visited for the first time due to Andrew Sevener performing and loved the atmosphere. Everyone was extremely friendly from the time I walked in. One of the bartenders, who was working near the stage, kept my drinks safe while I went to the bathroom. As someone who's frequently out alone, I couldn't have appreciated that more! Then Kim texted me my picture with Andrew and invited me back. What a nice group of people. It was my first time in Burleson, TX and I felt very welcomed. The food and drinks were great as well. No doubt I'll visit again. Highly recommend!“

“Best ham on earth! They even serve lunch!

“Our first dining experience here was due to another restaurant near here being closed, and that was our original destination. We were very pleasantly surprised to find an excellent wait staff and out of this world smoked brisket queso and bbq sandwich. Great selection of on tap beers and craft beers, as well as the usual assortment of liquors. The atmosphere was fun and friendly. Very nice way to turn around a disappointment of finding your destination closed! We will be back!“

“Had dinner tonight with the family and it was semi packed buy Maddie and Gracie had it all in control. Great service with those two, they continously check on each table to see if they need anything. Maddie and Gracie you two are the bomb! Thanks!“

“You ever eat somewhere and it instantly brings back memories from a different restaurant??

The other day we went to Captain D's in Burleson.

I hadn't been to one in years and so was curious how good it would be.

We were a Long John Silvers family growing up so I always have memories of those meals

Well Captain D's has done it well and made me feel like I was at LJS but it was BETTER!

First off Perla at the counter was tremendous!

She definitely knows how to run the restaurant

We tried a little bit of everything

The fish was fried perfectly

The hush puppies were crunchy but moist on the inside

The fries were excellent

The fries pickles were lightly breaded and sour pickles

The butterfly shrimp had the perfect crunch

The mozzarella sticks were flavorful and not over chewy

Overall the oil seemed very new as everything had a light color to it

What I was also very impressed with was how clean the restaurant is for the age

Also how great they maintained it after being there for awhile

I'll definitely be back now that I know it leap frogs the ol LJS!

Gotta go get some crunchies!!!“
