It’s a super cute place to eat. The food was wonderful. Outside and inside seating. Nice views, waitstaff was polite and prompt. The onion rings were HUGE! The torpedo appetizers were delicious but more spice than I could handle. The hamburgers were large enough to fill up a grown man. The non alcoholic smoothies were so delicious and sweet! The kids’ menu is verbally told to parents. I found that to be kind of odd. Overall, I’m very pleased with the visit.

Very good food and sizeable portions. Restaurant is clean and i like the indoor dining area with windows so you can see the river but dine with air condition. We celebrated my son’s birthday here and everyone was pleased.

Over rated spot for the map here. This one has one hundred percent the feel of tourist/party attraction.

I ordered this salad without cheese, it’s the chicken salad with balsamic dressing- a great option for a hot day. It tasted good and was light, refreshing, and filling. Our waiter was attentive and filled glasses as soon as they were halfway empty – great service here!!

The Gristmill is a Texas classic. Our latest visit was in the evening and it wasn’t as crowded as it typically is, allowing us excellent service. My chicken fried steak didn’t have enough meat (and not as good as the last time I had it) but the green beans were amazing and the rest of our dishes were outstanding.

The beautiful grounds, amazing building, and the customer service alone would bring us back up The Gristmill. The food was fantastic too! We loved everything we tried. Don’t miss out on the onion rings. They are so so good and definitely live up to the hype! I had the chicken fried chicken and it was so juicy and tender! My boys both had the Grist burger and loved the spicy queso. My daughter had the pulled pork sandwich and really enjoyed it. My husband had the chicken fried steak—which I tried too and it was awesome! We were too full for dessert but I look forward to next time.

There is something mystical about a restaurant older than time still operating and going strong even in this economy. I first visited the Grist Mill around 1988 and fell in love with the ambiance. It is a concoction of modern-day and historical amenities set in a colonial Texas stone fortress. We’ll, at least that’s what if feels like. The food has been delicious since I was a child and for over 20 years and numerous visits, it has not disappointed.
