“ We were in town and staying at Kalahari Resort during spring break. On our way out of town we decided to have lunch at this restaurant. We've been to this chain before in other parts of Texas, but this was the BEST experience by far! The reason for that is because of the exceptional service from our waiter LeeLee. He was AMAZING, very attentive, service was fast, he chatted with us and engaged with our son. By far the best experience at a Cotton Patch restaurant. Restaurant was clean, food was good, and service was fantastic. You really can't find quality customer service anymore which is unfortunate, but if you eat here, definitely ask for LeeLee, he won't disappoint! Thanks for everything LeeLee, we appreciate the great service! ”
“ I've been around for a while. Chicken Fried Steak would be my death row meal if I'm being honest. This place, my goodness has the best chicken fried steak I've ever tried. So good. Order with the turkey gravy. ”
“ We are here for the first time and it was amazing. I had the chicken fried steak and my son had a burger. Definitely will come back ”
“ Jon Michael (like the country singer) was amazing. Service was spot on. Winning personality. Food was delicious and quick to come out. First time there, as a friend wanted to try. But not my last. We will be back! Thank You! ”
“ I love this place. I come here quite often for the lunch specials. Saturday, a friend and I went and we tried a few appetizers, definitely underrated, and they were all delicious. The new country fried bacon, I know I was questioning it too, but it's actually really good! Not only do you get great food, you get great service too, everyone was very nice. ”
“ Great first time experience with servers who over serve. Great tasting Southern food. ”
“ During a recent stay at nearby Kalahari Resort, where the food isn't affordable by regular people, my family and I went looking nearby for dinner on a Thursday evening -- and we found Cotton Patch Cafe. We were seated within minutes, and our waitperson (receipt says "Chukwuemek E") took our order quickly and efficiently. He left us alone when we didn't need anything, but seemed to show up any time we needed him. The free hot rolls were delicious (I could have filled up on them and skipped the meal, they were so good) and came with *soft* butter -- unlike many places which bring the cold, hard square of unusable butter. I had the chicken fried steak, garlic mashed potatoes, and green beans -- each of which was *nearly* the best I've tasted. My wife had the meatloaf and said it was just right. Her baked squash caused her to exclaim with delight, as did the peach cobbler for dessert. Our children scarfed down their kid meals without complaint. At the end, I had the pleasant surprise that "kids eat free" on Thursdays, so the bill was significantly less than I'd expected. I can't wait to try Cotton Patch again. ”
“ Food was so delicious! Best scratch kitchen in town! Our server Jon Michael was amazing! He was very attentive and hospitable. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a budget friendly quality meal. The portions are good size so my fiance and I always share a plate. Can’t wait to return ”
