I've been coming here for over 35 years. My dad was friends with the founder. His daughter and I both attended the same high school, and it's been a go to since forever. Crispy dogs are a must-have! If you're a beer drinker, an ice-cold schooner is the buzz. Whether you order chicken fried steak, hamburger steak, the Pollock, or Mexican food, you can't go wrong. The mashed potatoes are so delicious and green beans, too. Parking is plentiful across the street, too. Expect a wait, especially after 5. It used to be a lounge, with its richly papered walls, and they still have a bar area with seating. It's very nostalgic for me. Must visit at some point if you are in SA.

Many many many (not showing my age) yrs ago our little office group had lunch there 2 times a week....great memories Now back in the area and working nearby just hadda go, in fact, multiple times in the last few weeks. FANTASTIC !! Chicken fried steak, creamy gravy, lotsa fries and a side salad (ALWAYS get an xtra plate to move the salad to)....YUK don't want gravy on my lettuce HOT and crispy Texas toast in its own special basket Lunch: 13.29 = 9.49 + sweet tea...BAM BAM Yes, it's kinda alot for lunch, but it's a treat one deserves once in awhile Every time of late the waitress has been PERFECT, fast, personable and sometimes really cute :) NOTE: they do need to learn what "sweet tea" is, as sometimes you have to add sugar I JUST LOVE THIS PLACE !!!

Food was hot and fresh as always. Fried chicken pieces were cooked tĥroughout, yet still juicy. Sat at the bar and Damion was our server. Very personable, professional and headed for a wonderful career. Will be back as always..friendly, friendly staff.

Great chicken fried steak and fried mushrooms. Good service. Terrific leftovers. Always fried foods. The best around to fill you up

Got the bean and cheese nachos. It was a large group order and my nachos were forgotten. However, they did remake and give me the one left behind. Unfortunately, the person having to go back to the restaurant had to come back and eat his food cold. The nachos were ok. Nothing fabulous, plain bean, cheese, and jalapeños on the side. No salsa. From others in my party: do not get the steak - it was ordered medium and was very well done (said it was the worst he ever had), the chicken fried steak was delicious, but the overall favorite was the fried chicken all white meat. Large pieces, perfect combo of breading to meat, and delicious.

Been here multiple times, every time the service and food are good. The onion rings are up there as well. Today was the first time trying a 'Tex mex/ Mexican platter and it was not as great as the 'American food' here. The flour tortillas are packaged. I will stick with the American menu from here on out. This is a San Antonio staple so you should most definitely give it a shot. They have a great alcohol menu if that's your thing. Didn't get them this time around, but the crispy dogs are an a plus as well too.
