This place is amazing. Cheap food but sooooo good. Chicken fried chicken with green beans and mac and cheese is a must. Server named Gregory is awesome. :-)
Big country breakfast is amazing although the pancakes are great too. Mimosas are a must. Likely to be a wait to get your name in early.
Frankly, haven't been very impressed with the food here.. but then again I didn't try the pancakes . :) I had the chicken fried chicken with sweet potatoes and green beans - average. :|
Oh man this place is wonderful. Friendly staff and amazing food! Worth the 40 minute wait!
We went for brunch . Started off with the gritty balls (really good). I also had their Carmel mocha latte ????for main entree, scrambled egg tacos , which were delicious!
No reservations for breakfast/brunch. It was delicious. The chicken fried chicken with gravy was amazing. Definitely get the green bean side. It's cooked with bacon and tomatoes .
I had the fried catfish . Best I've ever had. Tartar sauce yummy. Service great after the first 15 minutes. A little pricey for lunch but food is excellent and fresh. Will be back soon!
You can have it healthy if you try hard. Or you can let your hair down and enjoy this hearty food in big portions .
Had the Big Pancake Breakfast and it was delicious! Also, if you get some hot chocolate , ask the bartender to put some Godiva White Chocolate Liquor in it... you will love it! :)
Fried chicken , pork chop , Big Breakfast w/French toast , Swiss chard , sweet potatoes , and attentive service ...all amazing! Coming back for Shrimp and Grits !
Visiting from out of town and decided to give Ellen's a try. Had the cheese grits benedict . No complaints here. Wait time is pretty long To get seated FYI
Such a cute place and the breakfast was super yummy!! Grilled pork chop and pancakes were perfect and the customer service was awesome, will definitely be back!!
Great brunch . Everything looks great. The big country breakfast was amazing.
Great shrimp and grits and chicken fried steak . You can make reservations M-Th. Waiting is around 30-45 mins if there’s a line .
Had the fried chicken with asparagus and sweet potatoes ! So hard to choose, as the menu is great. Cute little place.
Skip the French toast . Custom omelet with chorizo was good, as was the mimosa . Good service . Would try again based on reviews to try shrimp and grits before deciding about the food.
Sat at the bar for breakfast . Never got the latte I ordered. The grits Benedict would be delicious if the eggs weren't undercooked and if there wasn't something watery in the middle.
Grits Benedict are soooo good. And the biscuits are fantastic!
Shrimp and grits were divine. They come with spinach . Try it, that's all I can say.
Best chicken fried chicken I think I have ever had. The okra is fresh and hand breaded , not the pre - packaged stuff most places serve.
The Mac and cheese and the sweat potatoes fries are a most. Very delicious. Service was great too
The Food was AWESOME!!! So Worth It. Medium Priced !
Completely satisfied... French Toast and pancake recipe uses almond oil but they were quick to accommodate our Tree Nut Allergy. Thanks!
My new GoTo spot for breakfast when I am in Dallas. Great for breakfast business meetings .
This time I got to speak to the owner and delighted to find out that he's opening up a new location so excited can't wait....
Cannot go wrong with the Chicken Fried Chicken ! Can't go wrong with anything. Really good, wholesome food!
The bartenders have their own “personal menus,” with more offerings than the rather quotidian drink selection on the menu… Ask for it!
Pancake were delicious! But better have a big appetite to finish it!
Chicken fried chicken is amazing! Mac and cheese Is to die for
A generous portion of the poached egg and grits was delicious and came in at under $10.00 total after the free soft drink 4square special.
Joe's gritty balls are good! So are the buffalo fries !
Breakfast and lunch were aweaome, you can taste the freshness
Everything is good. Come hungry leave happy! The chicken fried steak was heavenly.
Service and food both are excellent! Get the cajun shrimp and cheese grits .
Just had the shrimp and grits but nothing mind blowing about it. Really good but didn’t leave that much of an impression on me.
Try meatless eggs Benedict with avocado and tomato ! ❤️
The shrimp and grits was great. So was the pancake pot pie
Pork tinga tacos were awesome! Not so much of a breakfast food , but still really good.
Get the bloody extra spicy (no kick to the regular)
Love this place! The setting is beautiful. The staff friendly . And the food is yummy!
Chicken sandwich was exceptional. Very good service . Nice atmosphere.
The meatloaf is really delicious!
Best southern comfort food . The fried chicken is awesome.
Food so good you will want to finish it lol
Great brunch spot , arguably worth the wait!
Fried catfish and sweet potatoes were delicious!
Shrimp and Grits was amazing and so was the chai tea latte ! Great service
The tomato soup was outstanding. Food is amazing!
The portobello mushroom goat cheese toast is a must!
Get eggs over easy and have that yolk soak in your hash browns . Its so so good!
Absolutely AMAZING!!! Anything you get is GREAT especially the chocolate pie!!:) - Amanda
Ida Claire offers some great Southern fare (see what I did there?). The drink selection offers a variety of Juleps and other flavorful options. Also try the crawfish beignets and fried green tomatoes - Lee Diaz
Family fish nuggets are a great deal. Amazing Tartar Sauce! ???? - Christian Burgos
What a great museum. Very well done. If your in Dallas Tx and into history it’s a must. It has a parking lot , parking is $10 for I think 12 hours. It’s a self guided auto tour. ???? - The Traveler
Amazing. Hardly just an aquarium. We had a blast! - Danni Eickenhorst
Great selection of hats, boots and belts. Lots of leather apparel. Reasonably priced souvenirs in the back. Very nice employees. - Scott Hegyes
