“Our waitress wasn't on top of things; delivered appetizers without silverware or napkins and having asked for napkins TWICE when we ordered our drinks as had 3 children was really irritating. Sitting thirsty was not expected either. We sat barside and they weren't busy. 3/17 about 7pm.My food was so rich I couldn't eat it, maybe that's how it is. No complaints about anything else, son and grandkids loved the atmosphere and their food!“

I had Sea Bass and Brussel sprouts.But it is very expensive!! I also hoped the portions would be a bit larger. Also, please don't allow people to wear hats in the restaurant!! Parking is at a premium, so be prepared to use valet parking.“

“Had a great experience. Besides the food being fantastic, the service was outstanding. We were meeting friends there and had gotten seated. Someone came with a larger crowd and they needed our table to complete the amount of guests in the larger crowd so they generously and apologetically asked us if we wouldn't mind moving to a different table (we were still waiting for our friends and hadn't gotten our drink order yet) so we definitely didn't mind accommodating the request. The manager came to us and thanked us and offered 2 appetizers on the house for being understanding. We had great service and the ambiance was lovely. Thank you TWELVE!“

“UPDATE FROM MY 1ST REVIEW OF POTPOURRI HOUSE FROM 5 YEARS AGO... We were so excited to come back to Tyler for a visit and find that The Potpourri House was open. It had been updated and made more trendy, and although we missed the pretty water fountain inside the eating area (the sound of the fountain ⛲️ was calming) we liked the new updates.I had the portobello mushroom soup, Strawberry salad and chicken salad sandwich trio which was absolutely ?! The soup had lots of mushrooms and had a great flavor. My daughter had the French dip sandwich and fries. The sandwich was piled high with tender meat and served with au joux to dip it in. We had the spiced tea again and although it seemed a little sweeter than last time, I simply asked our nice waitress to put a bit of regular unsweetened tea in with the spiced tea and it was perfect.After lunch, we of course went to walk around the beautiful shop. The ladies were very friendly and it was fun seeing all the colorful earrings, dresses, etc.This is one of our favorite places in Tyler.1st REVIEW FROM 5 YEARS AGO... The spiced tea was absolutely delicious and the staff was friendly. The store was adorable with a plethora of wonderful gift items.Kid-friendliness: There is a kids menu along with plenty of appetizers, sides or smaller size dishes that would suite for kids of all ages.“
