Western Edge Kitchen & Cocktails

My family and I ( wife and 3 boys all under 9 years old) were searching for places with no waits on a Saturday night with no luck! So my wife ordered her food from somewhere to go and I ordered wings from Western Edge because that’s what all the boys wanted! I went in and you could tell that they had just went through their Saturday night rush! I went to the bar and multiple employees asked to help me while I was waiting. A server looked into my order and the lady at the bar investigated and said we don’t have an order because it was placed for tomorrow morning pickup! Me being the devastated dad in shock asked the lady if this could be fixed. With no hesitation she told a server to send the food order in and get it going! I sat at the bar to have a beer while waiting. While waiting I watched this badass of a bartender slinging atleast 15 custom made cocktails while I sat there. Come to find out it was the owner!! Wow! Very impressed by her going above and beyond while still slammed with multiple drink orders. Great service, wings were delicious and all the staff very helpful! If you want a place with great food and service make sure to stop in and try them out. Thank you!

2025 Update: Returned for our favorite bites, but I have to say the quality and presentation of both dishes has slipped. Ordered the bacon wrapped quail and it was nothing like the first time we ordered it.

Service was friendly and prompt. The patio is nice but seating in the restaurant lacks ambiance.

2021: Beautiful patio, excellent drinks, and the 4 cheese crab dip is to die for. We took the server’s recommendation and tried the bacon wrapped quail, and it was so good, we’ll be back for more!

We went on Christmas day, hostess was a delight. We sat outside and had a great time. Food was good - the crab dip was yummy! Hubby had Chicken Fried Steak, which was also good. Great place to spend some time on the patio - weather permitting.

We were disappointed when we ordered the chicken salad and the chicken was unflavored, undercooked, and not very good. We asked to send it back, and the restaurant still charged us full price. After asking to have it waved, they took 20% off, so we paid almost full price for a meal we didn’t eat!!

Called at 12:22 PM and made a reservation FOR 4:30. The call shows on my phone log.
But, when we arrived they had no reservation in my name and refused to believe I had ever made the call. So, they put us on the list for a 45 minute wait. We walked over to the bar to have a beer while we waited, the bartender greeted us and said “I’ll be right with you”, but after waiting about 10 minutes, we had had enough. They were not prepared to be open on Christmas and should have kept the place closed as they were on Christmas Eve day.

Disrespectful bartenders I would never recommend anybody to go here. It sucks.

We have been here several times, the most memorable on Christmas Day with family. Wide variety of items on the menu and everything is very tasty. Service was good initially but then the server was inattentive and we were having to flag him down for refills on our water. First time that has ever happened so we will chalk it up to lunch time busyness.

Went on Thanksgiving. Hostess was sweet and accommodating. Then, the manager or owner came and told us that if we were not eating turkey we would have to wait longer. She made us feel unwanted. When we were seated, our waiter Jessie was very good but our food was not. Our mashed potatoes and green beans came out cold. The chicken fried chicken was tough and dry.
Definitely will not be going back. Too many other good places to go near there

Maybe it was a bad night, but this place was horrible. Lousy food. Horrible manager when I complained. Lots of great places to eat in Fredericksburg, but not his one!
