This place is a tourist trap. No air conditioning All rustic design and historic building but charging $40 for a plate of food while the entire restaurant is sweating profusely…no thanks.
This sprawling riverside restaurant has been a Gruene favorite for many years. We were here many years ago and we found it great then. It's still great. Watch out: the portions are Texas-sized. I took an Appetizer and couldn't finish it.
Great views. No AC, so be prepared for warm weather days
Great food atmosphere is great a place to go and expierence a hill side outdoor brunch or dinner. seatings outside are great its like sitting on the edge of a mountain looking down to the river 👍 and for it being outside we didn't even feel bugs or any discomfort. They also have indoor seating. The wait was pretty long but they have seating area while you wait that is comfortable with misting fans and a bar to enjoy a drink. Prices are pretty pricey but worth it
