Restaurants in Rockdale

“Best Carne Asada tacos yum”

“We had steaks at a high-end restaurant in Denver last week, but tonight we went to the piano bar. The steaks are always above and beyond, even beating the high priced fancy steak places!”

“Amazing food, great service!”

“We love it here! Extremely nice people, amazing food. The owner is a nice guy and we’ve become friends! Try it all, tip well and you’ll be going back!”

“Nice place- plenty of parking & places to park an RV & or pitch a tent & miles away from the city life- however the owner was a little abrupt with tapping me on the back while I was rinsing off some trail dust on some kitchen utensils with a portable power washer and he grumpily said:" YOU CANT DO THAT HERE" & offered no solution & I said yes sir" as he scampered of & then proceeded to call the event coordinator to complain further more as if to raise even more concern -then I was asked to just dump the grey water in the ditch 40' away. There are better ways to ask people to do things without making any physical contact albeit the owner was quite aged & from another generation when contact like that was accepted. Ooh and btw the last row or stake by the covered area west the breaker kept going out 3 days in a row and by that time I was using my own generator and kept getting blamed for tripping the breaker - after the coordinator from our event found out where the issue was originating from , no apologies given, of course. But this was just my take and a neutral place to vent.”

“Ordered to go the Beef with garlic sauce and beef Mei Fun, outstanding food, gives you plenty to eat, gives you more than enough for more than one meal. Service is always friendly.”

“This is the second time me and my husband Drive through Rockdale. We stopped by and got tacos to go. We ordered five tacos and two large drinks for only $23. You can’t beat that price anywhere else. Everything was on point. Tacos are huge and delicious. Gentleman at the drive-through was very attentive and courteous. We will definitely will be stopping by again.”

“We may be regulars, and impartial, but the Sunday fried chicken is definitely a MUST!!! Wings on wednesdays is always a good time as well!!!”

“Friendly staff and great food.”

“Small, off the beaten path or hole in the wall type of place. Great service, sandwiches and burgers were tasty, and the homemade pies were delicious. Service was also quick. Would definitely eat here regularly if I lived in the area. This stop, I passed through on a family vacation and would make this a stop again. It's a great lunch spot.”

“Delicious authentic Mexican food in a charming atmosphere. Very attentive service. Have eaten here twice now...once in the afternoon and once in the evening. Was VERY pleased both visits! Their menu is vast and I want to try everything on it!”

“10/10 Experience! 🌟 Excellent service, super clean, and the buffet stayed fully stocked. Great mix of arcade games — and they all worked! Super impressed by the two young guys behind the counter — they were very polite, helpful and hard-working. The whole visit felt like a taste of childhood.”

“The best times and good friends.”

“Great sandwiches and friendly staff. Patient and very kind! The pretzel dippers they have water not my favorite, you can have sweet or salty but there is not a lot of either added to the pretzel. Now the foot long cookies are so so good.

Wheelchair accessibility: We had a lady who was in a wheel chair and had no issues getting her in or out of the establishment!”

“My hubby and I love their breakfast tacos every morning and we love their fajitas and taquerias with queso cheese they are so yummy and I hope they open up soon because the withdrawal are real”

“Couldn’t be happier to see this bookstore in Rockdale, TX. The owner is extremely kind, friendly, and knowledgeable— not to mention an amazing barista. This adorable bookstore has a great selection of new & old books as well as gifts for all ages. Don’t miss visiting the best (and only) bookstore in Milam county.”

“Love love love Heather, her coffee is the best around!”

“Awesome country donut dive for quick roadside stop, fresh gooey donuts and hot dark coffee. Appears to be a family-oriented operation. Support your locally owned businesses and the communities you pass through. ✌????”

“Had a wonderful dinner with friends, atmosphere was nice, 7 different food items were all delicious. Only one exception, I love their Papas Locas appetizer but NOT last night, they drowned them in cheese and didn’t put any fajita meat on them. I didn’t complain because the owner is so very nice, BUT hoping they go back to the way they used to be with a good drizzle of cheese and fajita meat. We highly recommend this restaurant. And will be returning soon.”

“What a great place. Very nice workers. The atmosphere was awesome. The blizzards were amazing.
I was impressed with the military discount they offered as well. I really felt honored by them and felt special when I left. This isn't something most places make veterans feel. I honestly left and thought to myself, they care.
I watched a family with a child who had special needs come in after me. The employees who worked there made them feel welcomed and at home. It's hard to find good, honest help like this. Great job, Rockdale! Maybe it's something in the water. You should share your water with other towns in central Texas.”

“Great burgers, friendly workers! Enjoyed it!”
