We have visited these iconic hash houses in many locations all across the SE USA.There are none in San Antonio. Our server was Katie and she was cheerful and a good WH representative.The coffee is standard across the company, it's plain old regular coffee.The cheese eggs were good as were the "covered" hash browns. The cook here doesn't know how to scatter. The Grits were not so good. They were watery, with lumps and had little flavor. This is not acceptable at a WH. Arriving early on a weekend will help with getting good service. These are small places andthere's not a lot of room.

I'm glad we tried this place. And now we know not to go there in the future. Would not recommend. Too loud. Mediocre food. Way overpriced for what you get. The only feature I liked was the free sampling of a large selection of wines and beers.

Friendly, quick service. Busy but very warm atmosphere. Great beer selection and perfect mixed drinks. The salads are delicious - fresh, crisp, flavorful. Pulled pork is tender and seasoned well. I cheated on my diet and had a burger - worth the guilt!! Wonderful burger!

Ready for some 'stick-to-your-ribs' down home cookin'? Come on down! Our menus will satisfy your appetite even if it's as big as Texas! Breakfast is our specialty and is served all day, but we've got some tasty dishes for the lunch and dinner crowd too! D

Very nice, smaller old style cafe. A complete menu for all. They appear to be better at breakfast based on the menu selection but our group ordered some of the breakfast and lunch plates. We were all satisfied with quantity and quality of our selections.

Just who is Reno Red? Look out the windows and gaze back into the time of the great cattle drives of the Old West. The Chisholm Trail was not far from right here. Among those hard working cowboys along the trail that carried half of all the cattle in Texa

Their 10oz Sirloin Steak Dinner was weak at best. Maybe a 1/2 inch thick and lacked flavor throughout the gristley portion. You can get better at a Golden Corral. Overall, this place Sucked!....and Iâm being kind.
5. Twisted Root Burger Co.

Weâve considered twisted root in general and the Roanoke location in particular as favorites for a number of years. My two sonsâ go-to personal favorite. But bit by bit over the last, say, two years this place has lost its charm, its uniqueness and has gotten very bland/boring. First to go was the fun banter about your famous person foos order. Then the menu above the kitchen. Tonight all the soft drinks were changed - forget about the fun special flavor. Itâs become very âcorporatizedâ for lack of a better description. And for the first time ever, the place was less than half full tonight at 7:00 pm. I assume others are having the same reaction to this place as we are. Oh well. It was fun while it lasted. RIP.

This is a great laid back restaurant in historic downtown Roanoke, TX, Excellent seafood and drinks. I like to return to Roanoke every time I attend events at Texas Motor Speedway and Bayou Jacks Cajun Grill is my favorite restaurant. So nice to visit Roanoke where the restored old downtown area is filled with fine restaurants. You will love this city and Bayou Jacks Cajun Grill.

This was the first restaurant we went to after we landed in Texas for the first time. Our friends asked us what we wanted for dinner and we said barbecue. They knew exactly where to bring us.We loved that you can order by weight and that you actually see them cooking the meat. You get a tray and once they give you your meat, you can pick some toppings and sides. We loved the decor too! Everything is perfect about this place!

2. The Classic Cafe at Roanoke

The Classic Cafe is a relaxing, cozy cottage serving original New American cuisine.
Reviewed By Michael H
I ate at the Classic for the first time today, having discovered it only yesterday by happenstance. This is the sort of place I am always hoping to find: a place with character, off the beaten path, in a casually elegant setting, with the food imaginatively prepared from fresh ingredients, and a good wine list. I am very glad I came and certainly intend to return.On a small street just off Highway 377, The Classic at Roanoke is in a World War I-era house that was actually transported here from Amarillo. It is family-owned, and the two owners and their chef, Charles, have been a team for more than 20 years. Charles maintains a small garden on the premises that is the source of many of the ingredients in his expertly prepared dishes. The interior of the place is decorated by abstract art done by local artist Carolyn Riegleman. I started with their fig martini, Tito vodka in a fig purée and a single fig, accompanied by their roasted garlic and goat cheese dip. Warm bread was also brought to the table and olive oil poured in a dish, as well as an amuse-bouche of "Texas caviar," a spicy bean concoction in a small puff pastry. I continued with their butternut ravioli, served with mushrooms, pearl onions, tomatoes, kale, and toasted pepitas in a sage cream sauce, absolutely delicious, accompanied by a New Zealand Pinot Gros from their ample wine list. I finished the meal with a cup of black coffee and a single Highland Malt.Curtis, one of the owners, had greeted me as I came in and stopped by to chat. He has been in the restaurant business since he was a boy. My friendly and very efficient server, Audrey, amazed me by recommending a Port from their list of after-dinner drinks; she is about college age, and I don't really expect people of that age to even know what Port is, but the staff are very punctilious and extraordinarily well trained. When I left for a few minutes to go to the restroom, I came back to find my dinner napkin neatly draped over the back of my chair.My only complaint is that I ordered my ravioli with an optional addition of three Gulf shrimp, but the shrimp weren't included! When I pointed this out to Audrey, she immediately offered to return the dish to the kitchen to rectify the mistake, but the dish worked just as well as it was. Other than that, everything about the experience was flawless, and I highly recommend this place.

Visiting from AZ where we don't have such fun places. They do two dishes only, fried chicken or chicken fried steak. Pick one. Enjoy! Veggies served family style by attentive wait staff. Clean, efficient, fun and well worth it. In Old Town Roanoke, TX with free parking across the street. Don't miss this when in the area, it's a local legend and this is the original location of this small chain.
