Best restaurants near me in Salado, TX

Whitney our server was a joy. Very patient answering our questions on the area. Food was delightful. Will bring our family/friends here again, perhaps staying at the rentals! Great weekend. Beautiful interior and setting. Perfect afternoon.

Very nice and beautifully furnished restaurant situated on a gorgeous property with beautifully presented delicious food. We had a wonderful meal which was very relaxed and we had all the time we wanted. Highly recommend.

What a memorable night! It was worth the wait of having to make a reservation months in advance. We dined on a Friday evening and there was such a synergy to the entire restaurant. Even the Chef on expo looked so at ease with tickets flying in, he stopped and said hi to a smiling baby. Our server Kevin made us feel welcomed and as if we were the only table he was serving, just flawless. The steak cut like butter, it was perfect and highly recommend. The gnocchi reminded me of the last time I was in Italy, just delicious fluffy pillows. Our 9 year old had the Bolognese and it was bursting with flavor which was unexpected but delightful. We also had the meatballs and garlic bread, a perfect way to start the meal. Save room for dessert, you will not be disappointed. The only criticism was that our table was by the entry door and it was drafty and cold. I had to keep my jacket on during dinner, but other than that we look forward to returning in March!

I had high expectations and Aba still far exceeded them. Such unique menu items. The short rib hummus was phenomenal. Great service and ambiance.

Our experience was very positive. The waiter was friendly and engaging. The food was reasonably priced, and we were allowed to substitute sides. It was quiet enough for us to converse with ease. The food itself was great. My chicken breast was moist and tender, and the Brussels sprouts were to DIE for! One of my personal measures of a restaurant is the quality of the coffee. The coffee was VERY good. My only negative comment is that the air conditioning was a little excessive and blew directly down onto my meal, causing it to get cold. I rarely comment about this because I am very warm-natured, but I do mind if it affects my meal. Patrons around us were wearing their coats and had similar complaints. The waiter said that the restaurant’s administration set the controls and the restaurant itself could not adjust it. I just kept the little menu and put it over the top of my coffee cup to keep it out of the wind. That was a minor inconvenience in comparison to the remainder of our experience however. I do recommend this restaurant.
