I've never noticed it being overly tomato. Maybe they just made an off batch.

Mexican oregano maybe?
I grow and use Mexican oregano and it is very distinctive. Not to everyone's taste, like epazote, but I love it. Love it in seafood Veracruzana dishes. Wouldn't be shocked if they used it. Super easy herb to grow.

You can still get prime rib, right? I wouldn't expect steaks to order during brunch.
It was around 1pm. Again I never owned a restaurant, but if it was my place and in the name was steakhouse, and in their infancy, I would serve all steaks when the doors are open.
Just had some of the worst service I've ever had at the new Don Chente

Sunday Brunch is fairly standard at list of restaurants and that normally means a reduced or totally different menu.
This. Brunch is typically its own unique menu, not a replication of the dinner menu.
Also most places list what's on the menu online so you can decide if you actually want to go there?

Anybody tried breakfast tacos at the new Don Chente?

How long do you want to ignore this user?
AG
2 restaurants in 2 days . Will keep it short
Dimasis: decent but not as good as Houston locations. However imo the lunch buffet is a pretty solid value. I also wish food was served a little warmer.
Urban Bird: have eaten here many times with my family and its always great. Went again a couple days ago and well.....its still great lol. Imo its easily the best hot chicken in town and its really not even close. BTW the waffles and syrup here are really good as well.

I'm going to have to check out Urban Bird.
Anchor still slaps for wings. Yuge. They looked to be doing well on Sunday.
Your place wouldn't be opened very long then. I don't know many steakhouses that are even opened for brunch hours, and the ones that are, aren't offering a full steak cut menu.

I ate brunch there a couple of days ago. Birria and barbacoa tacos were ok. Meat was surprisingly unseasoned, at least to me. I will go back for seafood sometime.
Tried Oishi at Jones Crossing today with the ex-boss. Was surprised at how good everything was. Ordered off the Chinese menu (in a technically Japanese place lol), and the food was as good as I've had here. Disappointed I haven't tried it sooner. The sushi bar and bar area looks cute and fun. The whole place is clean and has a real nice vibe.
That place is amazing!

I go and just order randomly off the Chinese side and see what happens. Only once out of about 15 things have I come away saying "not that one next time".
The sushi is always fresh and they have fresh wasabi if you ask. It's not quite Kanji level but it's good.
The sake menu is solid.
My 9 year old loves it! It was his request for his half birthday last week.
Thanks for the additions. Def going back for sushi and sake.

They have as good a cobb salad as there is in town,
3rd On Main in Bryan is owned by a college friend of my wife and mine and is the best brunch spot I have found in the area.
Try "The Morning After" if you go. Cornbread pancakes, spicy pulled pork, white cheese queso, fried eggs & breakfast potatoes

Each time I've been there bad service and luke warm atmosphere. Really surprised they've been there a year.
Has anyone eaten at the restaurant in Top Golf? If so, what did you think?

It's a tradition from my mother-in-law's family. It's an easy one to keep doing. I let the half birthday kid pick the restaurant for dinner and a cake from HEB.

You're doing it wrong, then. Anchor Bar rules!
Anyone know anything about Bo Ramen Sushi house? Do they have bar space?
I'm wondering what's taking Zoen Ramen & Poke to open? Poke Stop has gone downhill and I haven't been back in months.
Haven't ever had bad service at Anchor. Been there a number of times with my boys and the service is always top notch.

why not half-Christmas, half-Halloween, half-Labor Days, etc??? Santa's Wonderland in July sounds just awesome.

Christmas in July parties are a thing.
They are still rationing knives and will only have them if you ask for them.

I go almost every Tuesday evening when they have $1/wings. They also have trivia at 7:00.
The wings last night were the best ever. Really like the new Buffalo dry rub. Might be number one now. And also the spicey garlic parm is excellent. Blue Cheese is great. I typically stay with just the wings but all their appetizers are not bad. Only $5 during happy hour. Also a great beer on tap selection.
Pretty good. Burgers were solid as were drinks.
