My husband and I were passing through for work, first time at a Cotton Patch, we enjoyed the food and especially liked the fried orka. Our server was Kamryn and she was very helpful, I appreciated how she took the time with the nearby table that had an elderly couple to have pleasant conversation with them.

Kamryn was AMAZING! My boyfriend and I planned a mid-day date and ended up at two different locations, but she was incredibly kind and accommodating. She went above and beyond to make sure I had the BEST experience.

Side note: My boyfriend and I turned it into a virtual date at the Cotton Patch locations we were at, which made it even more special!

Emeri provided outstanding customer service during our visit to Cotton Patch. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of the entire time without being overbearing. Our drinks stayed full, the food came out exactly as ordered, and she had such a positive attitude that it really made the experience better. You can tell she genuinely cares about her job and the customers. Service like hers is the reason we’ll definitely be coming back. Thanks, Emeri!
