Adorable place. German chicken & dumplings were the best I’ve ever had – my favorite dish since childhood. So flavorful and full of chicken. Dumplings were homemade. The pan fried potatoes served with the brats were out of this world. Roasted, sliced, flash fried, then seasoned and pan fried with garlic, onions, and layers of seasonings. Bright airy atmosphere with very friendly service from Jennifer.

I can’t believe we’ve lived in this area for so many years and have never tried this place! What a gem! They’ve been here 20+ years I think but we’ve never thought to stop in. That’s unfortunate of us since they may not be around much longer. Come visit while you can! We had a delicious seafood chowder to begin with and both my husband and I tried the special fish dish….haddock, I think. Everything was so good! Tracy, our server, was excellent! She described each dish so well that I wanted to try everything! It did not disappoint! Go on a day trip to visit! It’s worth the drive!

I’ve been telling my wife for YEARS everytime we pass by that we need to stop. Did not disappoint. Hands down best chicken fried chicken I’ve ever had. She also said she had some of the best meatloaf ever. Highly recommend the mashed potatoes and gravy to pair the both. Everyone was very friendly as well. One of those kind of places you always drive by but never think to stop. Now I see why it was always packed.

My husband and I had one of the best meals that we have ever eaten while dining at O’Brien’s the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Our server, Tracy, was friendly, personable, and efficient. The Pescado St. Lucian was excellent. The tilapia was blackened with a flavorful crust on the outside, while keeping the fish tender, and the shrimp succulent and juicy. The creamy cilantro sauce was smooth and herbaceous, and complimented the tilapia and shrimp superbly. My husband had the Pork Ribeye dinner special. The pork was flavorful, juicy, and tender. Overall, the dinner was perfectly prepared, and the staff was knowledgeable and welcoming. We will definitely return!

Summary: Excellent spot to dine – the food, the service, everything! We love this spot when we’re in the area!
Tip: Ask for the complimentary bread – it’s amazing!!! highly recommend!!!
Details: Tried the chicken fried steak with a twice baked potato and it was delicious- so good! Also tried the Chicken and Shrimp artichoke and capers dish that was flavorful and tasty… I would say that it had an italian flare as do the grilled veggies. We tried the mac and cheese-made in house with 9 different cheeses! Very unique flavor and it was good… personally I could pick up on goat cheese (I think) and that isn’t my favorite, personally but someone else in my group absolutely loved it.
Favorites: bread, chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, sweet potato fries, mesquite grilled chicken.
Not favorite: greens, grilled veggies, chicken and dumplings
Dessert: the gooey vanilla cake was amazing!! Similar to a blondie. pro-tip: if you like lemon bars… squeeze some fresh lemon on top!

Love this place for great food without the pressure to order, eat, pay, leave and repeat for next guest. We were able to take our time, enjoy visiting with friends and WERE NOT rushed to get out for the next. My steak was amazing as was my wife’s shrimp and artichoke meal. Can’t wait for our next visit.

What a hidden gem of a restaurant with amazing cuisine, great atmosphere and exceptional service. Jenna was our waitress and she did an excellent job. We started with fried mushrooms. Also we had the chicken artichoke with capers in a lemon butter sauce which was so delicious. We also had the rib eye steak which was perfectly prepared. Also we had the pina colada cake which was scrumptious and sweet. They have outdoor seating and sometimes have live music. Overall, we had an wonderful experience. I would highly recommend.

parking can be a little random (get there early) Fast friendly service. Great menu options. Check the daily specials. Mixed berry cobbler is great (its large, share it)((Only negative was “tail-on” shrimp in the gumbo))

Recently moved to the area and drove by the place many many times without stopping. What confused me was the parking lot always looked busy, but the outside looked, well interesting. My experience told me . . . a consistently busy parking lot means really, really good. So, I finally decided to order takeout to give it a try. OMG! Unbelievable food with service and atmosphere to match. Now I now eat there regularly. As the saying goes, Don’t judge the book by its cover.
