"Stopped in on a Friday at lunch time with a small group of people. They have adequate parking, and a lovely clean restaurant. One side is dining, the other is the bar area. Selection is varied with classic steakhouse cuisine dominating. A large and well stocked salad bar tempted a few of us. I enjoyed their steak salad, which was a generous salad portion with a delicious steak topping cooked to order. My friend had the chicken salad which was also a large portion and quite tasty. Another friend devoured the ribeye steak, stating it was delicious. We topped it off with a slice of cheesecake which serves two or more....scrumptious! Prices are reasonable for the quality and the service was attentive. I will be back when in Giddings, and I recommend you consider it."

"Cute little pizza and ice cream shop. Little being the operative word. Crowded and one teeny unisex (yuck) bathroom which had a continuous line. My sis and I were looking for quick scoop of ice cream on our way back to Austin. There 's an ice cream and fudge shop in the back of the business with several flavors of Blue Bell ice cream. Pizza looked good but wouldn 't go again due to the location (hard and dangerous to get back onto 290 without a light) but the good ole folks of Giddings can knock themselves out there."

"Being able to reccomend their sides desserts should tell you everything you need to know of our experience there. The pinto beans and the buttermilk pie were excellent, everything else was anywhere from poor to middlin' at best. Perhaps they just were having a bad day minding the pit?Orders were for a beef rib and 3 pork spareribs with potato salad and pinto bean sides, and the sliced brisket with mac cheese and pinto beans, as well as a slice of buttermilk pie to share.The beef rib was chewy and stringy but did have decently smoked flavor, the pork ribs were roughly the same, neither fell off the bone nor had a decent clean bite when eating. The sliced brisket (ordered marbled) was the best of the proteins, but even at that seemed average as far a juiciness and flavor. Overall the proteins in our opinion ranked 1.5/5 starsThe mac cheese apparently is made with American cheese powder to judge by the color of the sauce, and it appears the potato salad is bulk deli purchased. The pinto beans were wonderful and the butermilk pie was very tasty. On balance they earned 3.5/5 stars.Portions were fair and prices were decent as value for the money goes, but overall we felt for the total cost of just over $64 for lunch for 2 that we would have eaten better had we just gone to a chain retaurant such as Dickey's or Famous Dave's. Value-wise maybe 1/5 starsService was quick and friendly (5/5 stars) and we enjoyed the atmosphere overall(4/5 stars) so we will probably give them another try someday, in hopes that the meal quality being off on this visit was an outlier."

"Meal Type: Lunch Price per Person: $10–20 Food: 1/5 Service: 1/5 Atmosphere: 1/5 I recently dined here for lunch, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience across the board. The food left much to be desired, lacking flavor and freshness, which was particularly upsetting given the price range. The service was equally underwhelming; the staff seemed disinterested and inattentive. It took a long time for our orders to be taken, and even longer for our meals to arrive. As for the atmosphere, it was rather dull and uninviting, making it difficult to enjoy the meal. Overall, I cannot recommend this restaurant based on my experience."
