“It’s a nice place with diner vibes. I will say our waitress was one of the most cordial and gregarious person I’ve ever met! Charo was super sweet, helpful and welcoming. I was impressed with the historical setting as well with the causal family type vibe of the restaurant. The lunch menu was great, offering an excellent variety of tasty options and all well priced. We had a quick stop for lunch prior to our visit to nearby Surfside Beach. What a great find. Clean restaurant and restrooms too. Plenty of free parking. Nice area in Lake Jackson.“

“New organization, Chowboys, running the restaurant part now.
Tried the hot dog, fries, and regular cheeseburger.
All were good. Home made burger patty, not that frozen puck you'd get from other places.
Fries were seasoned and fresh.
But the star of the show was the hot dog.
Tasty and made to order.

The lady working the grill was nice and generous. It was a pleasure meeting her.

The atmosphere? It's ok... Can't expect everything from a gas station restaurant.
Needs some updating... 🤷‍♂️.

Overall, I'd say it's worth a stop.“

“Went in with no expectations, and glad I did. The customer service was great. The ice cream is top tier. The chicken tenders and fries were really good. A bit salty but still good. 2 of my tenders were over cooked but by the time I finished my ice cream and fries I didn't care. Prices aren't bad either. Highly recommended.“
