8 Best Southern Restaurants near Rockwall

“Great food as always but the last two times we've eaten at Cotton Patch baked squash was not available due to everyone ordering it. Please make MORE so everyone can have some. 🙂“

“They had candy bars on”sale” but they were stale…when I tried to return some later that day at the one on I 35 between Dallas and Waxahachie I had a horrible experience with that MOD there. I had a receipt but because I was a few miles down the road they wouldn’t return it, and not only that but he went on and on about how it would hurt his “record” if he returned anything, even though I had a receipt from that same day 20 miles away. He wouldn’t even return an $.80 purchase. If I just asked for 1 refund. It was a ridiculous experience. I will never go back to that store on I 35. Also that store continued to sell the stale products on his shelf, even though they were told they were stale as well. finally they didn’t ask for my number so I could get points and they clicked the button so quickly for me, I couldn’t put my phone number in so I had to return everything I bought after that and I had to re-purchase it again to get the points. So, I was there at 2 stores to buy a few things for over an hour and the worst customer service at the one on the way to Waxahachie“

“This place was awesome. The food was great. Customer service was on point. The crawfish was delicious and fresh. Highly recommend coming here to try. We had a group of six people to seven came around dinner time. The sauce and the crawfish was at 10 at 10. Will be coming back thank you.“

“Great place ! I’ve been here a few times and the food never disappoints great staff and GM thank you !“

“Charlie's Old Fashioned Kitchen is more than just great food—it’s a fantastic place to network and support local businesses. The welcoming, small-town atmosphere makes it easy to strike up conversations and build real connections while enjoying meals that are made from scratch and truly made with love, just as the owner says. This is the kind of place where community comes together, relationships are built, and local businesses are supported. If you’re looking for good food and even better connections, this spot is a Royse City favorite.“

“This place is delicious and one of my husband and I’s favorite spots in Wylie area! The hot chicken is always crispy and perfectly seasoned. Love their hot chicken tenders and would highly recommend! Staff is always super helpful and nice too!“

“The wife and I tried there brisket and ribs this evening and it was really good and I definently recommend you try them if you enjoy delicious smoked food and grab a fried pie while your there. No more soulmans for us because Baker's is definently not stingy with there meat . priced better and tastier food . Staff was extremely friendly as well.“

“I cannot thank your staff enough! I regrettably placed an order for an early Thanksgiving meal for 25 people at another establishment, but it never arrived as scheduled yesterday. I called your store and your staff was eager to help! Within 45 minutes we had food for 25 people, including an array of delicious sides. Thank you to everyone on the Cowboy Chicken team who contributed to saving our holiday feast yesterday. We have always loved your store and your food but now you certainly have a regular and loyal customer for life! Keep up the great job!“
