    Food was fantastic. Fresh well prepared and plenty of it. They need some noise damning solutions. But well worth going.

    I would recommend this restaurant with one small setback, it was quite noisy. Other than the noise it is a nice place for dinner.

    We were in town for a short vacation before Thanksgiving. The restaurant is very nice and didn't feel crowded. We had the 7 oz filet and the braised short ribs. Both were very good, and the filet was cooked perfectly. It's the first time in a long time I didn't need any seasonig on a steak or potatoes. We would definitely return.

    The Tomahawk Ribeye was cooked perfectly. The service was excellent. It was a little loud with conversation. The creme Brule was the best I have ever had . I did not however sit outside, by the way they were very accommodating when I changed my mind , it was a bit chilly at night . There is a fire place and I checked when I walked by ,that would have been comfortable but the other tables would have been a little cold .

    Beautiful restaurant, we were seated outside near a wood fire place. The food was delicious. We had the house and Caesar salads, seared tuna, and roast.

    I’ve dined at Gruene Door many times. Brought a friend tonight and she also really loved it. Service was excellent as was the filet and desserts. One of my favorite places to eat in this area.
