Thank you Ashley for helping us make a special moment and Richard for being so kind. You all are the best and we will forever be grateful.”

David and Brian were our wine stewards and they were awesome. Thank You Heath family for such a wonderful place to visit!!”

“Went for the Sat night piano bar. It was fun and a full house. They put on a good show and it's more about the ad-lib piano player than getting the song word from word. It's truly a wine spot so just fyi if youre going.”

“Omgoodness! Iykyk! This place is $$$. Greasy, juicy burgers in a paper wrapper, fries in a brown paper bag and both are as COUNTRY as you can get!!

Really cool stuff to see. The wines are incredible and I would highly recommend checking this place out. Wines are a bit pricey but worth it”

“Until I can make it to Texas, I’m bringing Diamond Vineyards to me in central New York! I ordered a shipment with selections of Tempranillo, Tannat, Mourvedre, and Melee and loved them all! Shipping was easy with lots of options and the wine was packed with care. I can see why the Tempranillo is a favorite with a unique flavor and warm rich feel perfect for a cold snowy night by the fire. I will replenish my stash and hope to visit the source, soon. Thank you Lisa!”

“My girlfriends and I went on a girls’ trip for the weekend, and we’re so glad we added Alexander Vineyards to our itinerary for a wine tasting. Out of all the wineries we visited, this one truly stood out — it’s one in a million! Their wine collection features top-tier brands from overseas, and each bottle we tried was exceptional. Mr. Alexander, the owner, is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about his collection — he made the experience both educational and fun. Alexander Vineyards also has an amazing wine club and hosts monthly events with live music and exquisite food — definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area regularly. If you’re planning a visit to Hill Country, make sure Alexander Vineyards is at the top of your list!”

“I've never been to the brick & mortor location, but man I look for their beers every single time at HEB. It's a hard 1 to find on the shelves, but if you can get their Altibier (green label) in glass bottles, you've struck gold! I've had the Kolsch, Lager & Altbier & all of them are superb. Sometimes I will travel 35 miles just to get that green label. Highly recommend!”

“Always a great date @ Grape Creek. If you are dining here, ask for Candace. ?”

“Had such a wonderful dining experience here, celebrating my fifth year anniversary with my boyfriend! Jess the manager took such good care of us; to add her hospitality extended even to helping me with a stain! I see why this place was super popular on tiktok.”

“We absolutely love everything they offer. The barbacoa tacos, especially, are amazing! One note: the Carne Guisada tacos are really good, but very messy.”

“We stopped in because of the smell from the shop next door. Came in purchased a cinnamon toast & marshmallow cookie. They only had three so I purchased one.

Such a fun places, and we will definitely be back!”

“This is an absolute no miss place. Lots of interesting beverages to try, including a selection of spicy drinks - my favorite. The owner, Barb, creates a welcoming and fantastically fun atmosphere with her personality, available games, and local crafts for sale. We meet several really cool locals. If we lived closer we'd hang out all the time!”

“Update Sept 2025

Absolutely fun place to visit. They specialize in Italian ice, but it’s limited flavors (about 12). That said, all the ices are delicious! And, the fun part is the you can get a scoop of the ice with prosecco! We tried many of the ices, the raspberry and mango topped the charts! The mango with bubbles was da’ bomb! Highly recommend you stop by and have some fun!

Dec 2024

Cute little Italian ice shop which features a dozen or so featured flavors, served in cups. Very fresh, light and refreshing. We tried several flavors, all good. Special treat is the Proseccolina, which is a scoop of Italian ice with a glass of prosecco poured over the top. We tried one of those, fun and delicious! They also serve champagne (Veuve) is small or regular bottles. Nice outdoor patio with heaters. Nice merch area inside as well. A fun stop for kids of all ages!”

“Loved we will be attending again”

“Delicious food, relaxing atmosphere and great service. Will be back.”

“Totally pleasantly surprised. Avocado toast was far from basic, stacked higher than expected with perfectly cooked eggs and yummy avocado smash, but the kale salad on top sent me over the top!!! Fiancé had a county style breakfast sandwich that tasted like it was made by grandma with all the love of 100 generations. Definitely coming back, probably every time I’m in wine country. Plus the staff, sooooo sweet and fast.”

“The best burgers ever! I love the fries.”

“Really cool place! We went while they are doing construction to expand so not everything was open but would still go back tried a little from each food truck and they were all great! Once the expansion is done it will be even better!”

“Excelente comida. Y una amable atención. 100/00 Recomendado”

“We ate at Leroy’s this afternoon to reconfirm what we thought first time we ate here. I’m reporting in to say that yep, it was just as good this time as our first time! We both had a taco first time: L had brisket taco and I had a pulled pork taco. Yum yum. Beans were also very good. And a peach cobbler for dessert. Delicious. Today we each had an order of street tacos. Also came with beans and a grilled pepper on the side. Another yum yum. And once again, peach cobbler…this time with ice cream. Very nice staff that checked on us several times. You can count on us, Leroy’s, as becoming regular customers!!!”

“Delicious food, friendly service, on time.”

“During the Christmas holidays I ended up taking my sibling to Pasta Bella. Shawn & his staff never disappoint. Everyone was very friendly and the food was amazing!!! Thank you team Pasta Bella for the great dining experience.”

“I’m not sure where to begin. My husband and I ate lunch on the back patio today with our dog, Dino. We were promptly greeted by our server Jo, who must have written the manual on great service. She was attentive, witty and full of information. Our food was equally as great, we’ve eaten quite a bit of bratwurst in this town in the past 5 weeks, and theirs is lights out. Oh, and to top it off the live music was awesome, check their schedule so you don’t miss Cliff Crawford.”

“We stopped in before heading to a wine tour. It looks small, but there is the coffee shop, a few rooms to shop for kitchen/house items, and small area of tables in the very front to drink and eat. It's located along Main Street, so there is parking right in front.

We ordered a couple or coffees and baked goods. The food menu is not very large if you're looking for a big meal, but what they do offer is good. They were pretty quick to make our order.”

“The best sausage by far!!! So good!!”

“Nice dive bar to go hit up while visiting Fredericksburg Tx.Chance the bar tender is beyond exceptional bar tender friendly and attentive,I'll be going back.”

“Great food and the people that run it are so nice 👍”

“the best of the best!! I have known Michelle 30 years and she is good people from good family!! the absolute best! please open a restaurant in johnson city!!!”

“Recommended by an acquaintance. About 6 miles North of town in an old Sinclair gas station. A small bar and 4 tables. Menu choice was a DinoBLT or hot wings. We went for the BLT. Order at the bar, no table service. BLT's came out in a paper sack. Bottle beer and canned soda are the beverage options, no water. Could well be the best BLT I ever had. $10.00. Weekends The menu changes to DinoBurger $20.00 and wings. Would have come back for that but left town the next day. While waiting around for food, wander through the service bay.”

“Typical place for kids pizza. The kids loved it. Pizzas were a little bit slow on the buffet bar, but we were willing to wait. They had a cartoon room for the kids to watch large screens while eating. Great family atmosphere.”

“Great food and amazing customer service! ! Thanks 🙏”

“Bella Sera was recommended by worker at Lady Bird RV Park. The food was the best Italian food we have ever eaten. Service was excellent, would absolutely go back and highly recommend.”

“Ever was an excellent server. He check on us several times. Our lunch was absolutely delicious. We were seated right away. Great atmosphere. We were waited on, served and out in 45 minutes. We were there for lunch at 12:30 pm. We highly recommend this place for some great German food. This is the 3rd time I have been there and the food is always great. 10/13/2022”

“We go to Mamcita's almost every time we are in town. The food is always good, but this past weekend, we went and I went into the restroom and it was awful. The second stall was so nasty and I tried to flush it down, but the handle was broke. So I waited for the next one to open up. After I walked out, told the lady by the desserts and she cut me off right away and said they knew it. Why was this not addressed and at least put a note on the door that is was out of order? Why was not not fixed when it was reported the first time. Please keep restrooms clean-this also gives a red flag that leans to the wonder of the kitchen. This was a big turn off!!”

“Bucs is the local bar that has it all; sports, pool, karaoke, food and awesome bartenders. My favorite by far is Jasmine. She’s speedy, no waiting for your drinks, always remembers our drinks and never lets the crowds or the pace affect her smile or sense of humor. We won’t even get started on the flaming shots. She is just the best.”

“We really enjoyed our dinner at Rathskeller. I had the blackened Mahi Mahi and it was delicious. My husband said the Heavenly Tilapia was the best he’s ever had. The rice pilaf wasn’t bad, but it was more of a Spanish rice IMO. I enjoyed the cheddar mashed potatoes, but my husband was not impressed with them. Over all, our dinner was wonderful and the service was great. We’d go back again!”

“December 2025

The Pharmacy is a coffee shop and has a really cool historic vibe. I got a cup of coffee and it was good. The barista was a cool dude and very friendly. It's part of the Albert Hotel so expect this place to be kept up well.”

“Phenomenal food and service. Friendly people. The price is awesome for the quality of food you get. The burgers are amazing!! �”

“I travel to Fredericksburg once a month for work, and every single time, a stop at Jersey Mike’s is a must.

Already looking forward to my next visit!”
