Best Restaurants Open for Newyears Eve this year in College Station – 2024

Nice place and good food. The redfish tacos were good, but very little fish and mostly cabbage filler. Weird setup to order up front and get your own drink and then have someone act like a waitress that you pay at the end.

Both dishes came out super hot which I liked, and was very flavorful. The tacos were a bit creamy with some rich flavor to it, crunchy and surprisingly loaded up. The cheesesteak was similar in rich flavors and filling because of the same beef flavor.

My first time to a Willie’s! I was slightly confused as your order at a counter and then seat yourself. We got our own drinks as we weren’t sure if the server was supposed to do that? We had to flag someone’s attention twice to try get cutlery and napkins. However, the food was yummy! Chicken wings were great and the atmosphere is fun.

I was visiting College Station for the first time for a wedding. We went to Walk-On's Sports Bistreaux for lunch. This is an impressive sports bar with lots of TVs and plenty of beer on tap. My date is a serious Gamecocks football fan, and we were able to watch the game. Our server was very attentive and friendly. We shared the wings and waffle fries that were really good. I enjoyed watching the game and eating and drinking beer at Walk-On's.

There was a little bit of a wait as we had a fairly big group. The service was great and the food was yummy. The chicken pasta could have used some seasoning but everything was beet tasty.

We came here for an early dinner on a Thursday afternoon and we were sat right away and they provide high chairs. Our server was friendly and we didn't wait long for our food. We ordered the cheeseburger sliders for our appetizer which comes with 3 sliders and they were very yummy. Then I ordered the Avery Island salad with grilled shrimp and it was awesome and big. My husband ordered the Uncle B's Chicken Tenders which comes with 5 big tenders and fries, he took two home with some fries. We finished our meal with their beignets. I had never had them before and I was excited to try them. I thought they would be like scones or donuts but they were like fried croissants, very pastry-like on the inside. We loved them. I would definitely recommend trying this place out.

Staff was good, nice environment. I paid $20 for the fried chicken and my words were “where’s the rest of it” when I got my food. Very small portions of less than mediocre food. I could’ve gotten twice as much better food at Cracker Barrel for half the cost, and that’s what I’m doing from now on. Not coming back.

Great find off of highway 6 in College Station , the food was awesome and drinks are great. Service was top notch

Hailey was our Server and I would come back here again and again just for the Great customer service she provided us. We felt like Family the whole time..First time coming to this restaurant and definitely not the last. Food was Amazing and Unique as well as the Atmosphere. Thanks Again! See ya soon Urban Table in Aggie Country

Our waitress Arianna was amazing. I can't say enough about her. The food matched the service. Everything was absolutely perfect!! My daughters 21st Birthday Dinner couldn't have been any better.

Enjoyed tonight! Our server Caitlyn was sweet, checked on us often, and was so much fun! Food was delicious! Mozzarella bites were amazing and different than we have ever had. Portion sizes are larger than expected and pricing fits well. Side salad was not small like you see in other resteraunts. Not pictured (forgot to take) chocolate cake.

Excellent service from CK. I had the best Old Fashioned I've had in a while after the bartender used the wrong bitters. The steak was excellent just a little overcooked. Ordered medium rare and received medium. Still juicy so we accepted it. They did very well accommodating my wife's gluten intolerance.

Had a great first experience at this location. Service was prompt, atmosphere was great and food was delicious. Had the stuffed shrimp plate. Portion was very generous, definitely can feed 2 people. Look out for Rusty the raccoon. He’s hanging out somewhere in there

My wife and I had lunch here a Sunday a couple of weeks ago. There were not very many people there, and that was I believe to our advantage. The food was great. The young man who served us was great. We are planning to return in another month or so.

Wanted to try some cajun food in the cstat area, this definitely does not disappoint. The combo skillet has plenty put into it and will fill you up, also has a decent amount of kick to it. Service was very responsive, I'd probably come back again.

This is a good steakhouse no doubt. The steak carpaccio was excellent. The greens went perfectly to the thin slices of beef. Very tasty. The skillet cornbread is a highlight! I had the ribeye which was again very good. I would not say that was exceptional though. The Brussels were very good. Crispy and had balsamic generously soaked. The sides in general were not enough to share with many people. Two people is fine. 3 or 4 not enough. Service people were very nice. Service seemed a bit slow. But I’m from NY area so maybe it was just the culture here. The interior of the restaurant is what I expect for a higher end steakhouse. Great wine selection. I would have to try other places to compare for the area. I think it’s worth stopping.

Food was okay but not executed as it should have been. For a place this expensive I wasn’t expecting the steaks to be under seasoned and the temperatures to be off. For the caliber this restaurant is going for the kitchen was not up to par.

We hosted our staff holiday party at Porter’s and the service was exceptional. Derrick, the manager, was a consummate professional and made us feel as if we were the only guests in the restaurant. One wait staff member, Reagan, was the best of the best! He was attentive to every need and was second to none in his selfless service coupled with humor and warmth! We are so blessed to have Porter’s in our community!

Food quality could be improved, especially the semi-tough "sirloin" Filet Kebab. Calamari was dried and tasted like it was from frozen, and the portion was pathetic (see photo). The Ahi (tuna) Avocado salad was surprisingly great. Brownie a-la-mode and tiramisu were excellent. Service was slow, nearly intolerable. We almost reduced the tip but didn't.

Went there with a friend. Was good. I got “big salad” from menu. It was not big at all. Friend got kebab and was pretty good size and delicious, was overcooked because she asked for different level of meat. Onion soup was so bad, couple spoons to try and could not eat more. Overall it was ok experience and next time I’ll just order something else.

A first for me. The lamp chops, garlic mashed potatoes, and asparagus were cooked just right. Great seasoning flavors. The brownie with Gelato was rich. Our server, Nicole, was awesome! She was so attentive, had a wonderful personality, and had all our orders perfect. The peach cobbler is perfection. Couldn't eat all the desserts, so I had to take leftovers. The peach bellini was so smooth and sweet. Happy hour 4 to 6:30 pm. You can't beat a great deal!

We finally stopped here for lunch and we wished we had stopped sooner! The calamari appetizer was phenomenal! Cooked perfectly and not chewy. Both of our meals were cooked perfectly. The service was outstanding. The food came out hot, fresh and timely. The interior of the restaurant will absolutely surprise you - even though this is in a strip mall, just wait until you get inside!!! Cannot wait to eat here again!

My wife and our daughter had a excellent experience for our 8th wedding anniversary. Food and atmosphere was excellent. Our server was very attentive and came around with great timing. One of our pet peeves at a restaurants is tracking down our waiter for drinks. She kept our glasses full and our minds on the plate in front of us. I had the lobster ravioli and my wife had the lasagne. Both great dishes, our daughter had kids spaghetti. The only down side was the appetizer the grilled portobello mushroom. It was not what we expected… maybe next time the calamari.. But don’t let that sway your visit here. I read through some of the negative reviews here and I don’t see where some people get off on their poor reviews. This place blew every Italian place out of the park in Bryan College Station and for the service you cant beat it at any restaurant. If this gives you an idea Christopher’s didn’t come close…. 9.5/10…

Madeline was very knowledgeable about the foods. I had the Chicken Marsala & husband had the duck with a bottle of the Malbec. Very enjoyable eve, to complete our College Station visit. why is this not busier? Hidden gem Such a charming, warm atmosphere

If you are looking for a good burger, go somewhere else. If looking for Awesome burger eat here! We went around 5pm post game. Met with a smile! Young lady knew menu & what gluten-free meant. Plenty of TVs to watch any sport. Thickest & delicious shakes with 6 varieties, not including alcohol flavors. Gluten-free buns available but we had lettuce wraps. My daughter loved the onion rings & could only finish half the order. Burgers cooked as ordered!Flavorful sweet Tatar fries cooked in separate fryer. My husband is Celiac & no issues.#burger,gluten-free

Food was fantastic, thoroughly enjoyed their Guacapotle Burger, with sweet potato fries and a caramel bourbon shake. Their establishment was very clean, the stalls in the bathroom are a wee bit small tho. Overall was very pleased with the experience and would definitely go here again.

Came by twice before 4th of July (2023) and had an awesome and modified Hangover Burger both times! They were both delicious and exclusive to the holidays! The staff and management are/were friendly, awesome and kind! You can tell when you have a great and awesome management team cause the staff members are smiling and have a little bit of a pep in their step. The atmosphere is nice as well! Nicely lit, indoor and outdoor seating, has a nice bar area and a mix of seating variety. Please keep up the excellent work and keep being the best team and individuals that you all can be! We will be back! Update: 06/22/2024 We're back!!! Management staff and food are still amazing!!

So delicious!! We ordered the tequenos, the tallarin a la huancaina, and the ceviche de mariscos. It was all fantastic and I really love the tallarin a la huancaina! It's like a more seasoned spicy alfredo/mac and cheese. They also have an awesome selection of homemade ice cream using different South American fruits! We tried the lucuma ice cream and WOW WOW WOW!!!! I might have to inquire about buying a whole tub of that ice cream somehow lol. I highly recommend this place and I'll certainly be back, especially for more of that lucuma ice cream YUM.

The food is amazing. Served hot and fresh, great variety. Definitely a good to spot.

The flavors get 5 stars!! However, we had a party of 7 on a Wednesday night, but we only ordered 5 entrees, and it took well over 10 minutes from the first plates served to the last plate, which was only a burrito. The steak meat was way overdone, but the flavor and the sauces were sooo good! Also they have homemade ice cream with fresh fruits & coconut - I just think they need to work on the serving times. I say definitely go, but maybe with just 1 friend

It is a popular local bar with an alley next door full of bottle caps. Fun for beer and pool. Food is fair for a bar. Nothing special. Eat first somewhere else and come here for drinks. Rattlesnake in the back is interesting. The men’s bathroom is filthy. Maybe that is the appeal, but filling the trough urinal with ice to reduce the smell was both ineffective and disgusting. It smelled like a full port-a-potty baking in the sun during the summer. Parking is paid with meters in the back.

The food was amazing, staff friendly and place was clean. The have a pool table section too!! Will definitely visit again!

We came here for a gathering and I can't really rate this place. It's an awesome restaurant with a lot of history but it was so packed (college baseball game). We didn't really eat. But it is definitely a fun college restaurant.

Bree was our waitress-she was very prompt, kind and efficient! She definitely made sure we had all our drinks re-filled and the extras we requested were taken care of quickly and with a smile! The Montecristo is always exceptional. My son’s steak was great. The broccoli cheddar casserole was great. The only thing that was not great is the green beans they were kind of greasy, but he was too full to eat the green beans anyway so still amazing thank you.

We were there from 3-4p on a Monday and there weren’t many people in so we didn’t have to wait. Food was pretty good. Wished the croissants were warmer, but the hot honey chicken tenders with homemade ranch along with the broccoli casserole were flavorful and filling!

Food was great for classic American dishes, meatloaf had a nice flavor to it, a little smokey. Country fried chicken was very filling and crunchy/savory. The shrimp Alfredo was creamy and rich. They also provide 1 free plate of 4 honey butter croissants which was nice, they tasted good too. Food per person was around ~$16, but lots of food that could be eaten as two meals.

The experience is of the charts excellent. Before this meal experience, my son and I LOVED the Taste Of Texas. Now they will have to take second place. The variety of perfection in the meat selections was next level amazing for taste and timely arrival. We were forced to flip our cards to take a break a couple times. The friendly staff were very attentive and personable. We will definitely be back many times.

My husband and I went here to celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary. Neither one of us have experienced Brazilian food; nor have we been to a fine dining restaurant. The host seated us (pulling out and in my chair for me ) and we were immediately served, helped and treated like valued customers. I had one glass of champagne and it was simply delightful, light and bubbly. The food was very well seasoned and cooked to please. The only bad experience for us was the gnats flying around my glass of champagne and over our heads. For desert; my husband and I tried the creme Brule (neither one of us have ever had it before), HOWEVER; we did not care for the texture of the top (it was almost as if chewing on shards of glass). Over all; the gorgeous atmosphere, impeccable service, delicious meats, salads and drinks, made us decide to return again in the future. I would give this restaurant a 4 out of 5 stars due to the gnats.

Was at a meeting in College Station and the host offered to take our group to lunch at a Brazilian steakhouse called Casa do Brasil. Once at the location, I entered the establishment and was impressed with the salad bar and ambiance. The gauchos were impeccably dressed and the food was excellent. I only snapped a couple of photos near the end of the dining experience so visit Casa do Brasil to enjoy the food and service received.

Fair at best. We’ve been a number of times and it’s been very inconsistent in terms of the food and service. Our waiter was nice but he got slammed and they are way under staffed. The bar tender CC had a really bad attitude. Tonight the pizza was good, much better now that they have their new pizza oven. Fettuccine Alfredo was good except the broccoli was mush. Soup was barely warm- this seems to be a common issue with this location.

Always a good pick - quick, friendly service - great menu selections, something for everyone - food cooked right and served hot. Great selection of in-house beers too if you're into that.

Came for the weekend to visit my Aggie on 10/12/24 and take him shopping. We were seated at a table that had a faulty bench. Unfortunately we did not find out until my niece excused herself from the table and the seat slide and rose. The service that we received from the waitress made me feel as if the restaurant rarely serves people of color, she assumed that we had never been to a restaurant or BJ's, or she was just not interested in being our server. There was a ridiculous wait on garlic butter for my steak. So, I waited for 20 minutes after the others at my table were served and then received a dish of raw garlic butter so large that I can assume that it came with a death wish because death is certainly imminent for anyone who consume even a 1/16th of what I received. My son's order came with a pizookie which took so long to arrive that we took it to go. And, I wish that I had visited the restrooms first because as a general rule, I do not eat at restaurants with dirty restrooms as it speaks to the general interests in cleanliness of the staff. I could go on but the thought of this visit grosses me out while making me angry. I will not be back nor do I suggests that other visiting parents dine here.
