    Friday Pork Chop Lunch is an annual thing for us between Christmas and New Year’s. We are never disappointed in any aspect of our visit to the restaurant. Aside from the amazing chop, we try a new side and dessert every time, and always with a bottle of wine. Great way to keep the holiday celebration alive!

    My friend and I had a great dinner at Culinary Dropout on an unseasonably warm December day in TX. We were seated in the outdoor area and the staff turned on the heaters once it became cold outside. Great food and service

    The location is wonderful and with the Christmas lights everywhere it made it all the more lovely. The fig and prosciutto pizza was absolutely perfect. The drinks were nice, though it would have been nice to have chilled glasses for the Prosecco. Other than that the appetizers were hot and delicious, and the wait staff was attentive and welcoming. We are from Houston and love Misty and everyone there. It was nice to see another 60 Vines when visiting family for the holidays. Nice to see that the quality carries through to their other locations.

    Overall The Grove is amazing. They pick great locations! Patios in the trees are excellent. The food is reliable and service great. The interior of the NW Hills location looks like a Panera Bread chain location. They could have done better on the decor but it doesn’t matter if you have a great lunch guest and a great bottle of wine!
