    Tried Whiskey Ridge for the first time last night, and it was great! There were a few little glitches with getting seated and with one of our orders, but the staff was super friendly and we didn't mind. Excellent frozen margarita (maybe the best I've had?). I liked my salad and my husband and son ate every bit of their chicken fried chicken. Huge portions, so order accordingly. And it looks like reservations will be a must for this place - at least on weekends. It was packed! Kudos for the ample parking. All around great experience, excited to go back.

    We had a birthday party at Carve Barton Creek 12/20/24. It was a very enjoyable experience because of Colton (manager) and Lexi, our server . We wanted to change tables. Colton was very kind and accommodating. He checked in with us several times throughout our dinner celebration. Every bite and sip Lexi brought us was delicious. The eight of us tried almost everything. Thanks for another fun night!!

    We had not been to the Josephine House in a while, so it was great to return and enjoy a delicious brunch in a festive and cozy atmosphere. Avocado toast was delicious! Our waitperson was attentive and accommodating. Looking forward to returning sooner than later!
