We are so glad we found this gem of a restaurant. The food was top quality as well as the drinks and the manager's service was just outstanding. The bartender was awesome too! I had the best salmon I've ever had and the bread pudding was delicious! Can't wait to celebrate my birthday here.

Linda and I had a wonderful dinner. Starting with great cocktails! We find ourselves coming here more often since they added cocktails to their bar offerings, a delicious grilled octopus starter, a very fresh and seasonal supper fruit salad made with local peaches and blueberries, Linda had the quail entree and I had the redfish. Both entrees were delicious. We completed the evening with the same peaches and blueberries in a cobbler with cups of the best decaf coffee I have had in a while.

Great food and great service. Wanted to take my wife somewhere nice for her birthday. This was a great choice. The restaurant uses local ingredients on all their dishes, and boy that makes a difference! I went with the seared duck and my wife went with the Veal Milanese. The wait staff was awesome and they able to answer all my questions about where they get their local ingredients. The appetizers were also great and the dessert was amazing. You have to try the bread pudding! I want to try everything on that menu but the items change regularly due to the local ingredients being available. Can't wait to go back!

Our groups’ experience at Ellerbe Fine Foods was a little different as we went for a small celebration, hosted in the front room, with a prefixed menu. Regardless, we all enjoyed everything about it! From the delicious food and drink to the inviting ambience to the friendly service made for a truly wonderful time! I definitely intend to go back. Note: I recommend calling ahead with any questions about menus, parking, reservations, etc.

Great evening celebrating a friend’s birthday. I had the steak and my wife had braised pork shank. For dessert we split the Bread Pudding. Usually my wife is not interested in Bread Pudding. This one, she did more than her share of eating! Service was very good. Would recommend for a nice occasion or celebration!

This is one of the best spots in town. Chef Molly is incredibly creative with the flavors and the entire experience is first class. Make sure you save room for the bread pudding. It’s worth it. You can even get a side of ice cream with it. ;)

I always love coming here, though it’s nearly an hour from home. The staff make you feel welcome, the servers explain the new seasonal menu items so well, and the food is perfect. Ohhhh...the warm bread with the lightly salt-topped butter is the perfect warm up. I also ordered the chickpea soup and the duroc pork belly, which had an onion soubaise base (this was new for me and I’m definitely going to make this at home!) and shaved apples and radicchio - a VERY fall-inspired meal! I ended the meal with their infamous bread pudding. It is the best in the city, or dare I say, all of Texas! (Just know it is NOT the soggy kind most are used to.) They have the option to order Maw Maw’s bread pudding for thanksgiving, which I did, of course! (Serving size 6-8 pp.) Manta was my server and he was great, always cordial in the formal greetings. Always enjoy Ellerbe Fine Foods!
