Willhoite's - Grapevine

These places have some really great eating and the atmosphere is like no other. it is a very easy to go and put space to eat a bite and have some drinks with friends. it is also in a great location in the event that they want to try out other food or nearby activities. we go here 2-3 times in the month, just to relax and catch together. very recommend to them to check this place if they have not been.

A friend recommended this restaurant to me. I ended up not eating here. There are 2 main reasons why. First, apparently you can still smoke in restaurants/bars in Grapevine. When I walked in I was immediately greeted with the smell of cigarette smoke fromthe bar area. Shocked me. I asked about a non-smoking area and was pointed to go to the back area of the restaurant. Kindastunned. Second, I?ve been trying to eat healthy. Avoiding meat and friend foods. This is not the place for that. Burgers andfried food and meat were the main things in the menu. There was a salad bar as an option but I wanted more than a salad. I endedup going elsewhere to eat. I?m sure the food is good, just not what I was after.

We had the upstairs reserved for a party. We arrived in slow parade, not all at once. Personally was one of the last ones to arrive. My entire service the only interaction I had with the server at all whatsoever was bringing me my first drink and herwanting payment. Not only did she not bother to refill anybody's drink that I saw, they completely ran out of sweet tea.... thisis Texas they ran out of sweet tea!! But she still went ahead and added her gratuity to the ticket without asking her anythingelse because we were a party that sit together that's all we were. we did not order together. To say she didn't jump throughhoops would be a gross understatement she didn't do anything but bring me one tea. And couldn't even make more. No I will not beback. Who runs out of sweet tea in Texas? Let me rephrase that who runs out of Sweet tea in Texas that wants to stay inbusiness?

The service was good, but the food was disappointing. The chicken fried steak appeared to be reheated leftovers. The smell of smoke permeated the entire establishment, making it more suitable for a bar than a restaurant aiming to attract non-smokers. Although the place had a nice historic ambiance, the presence of smokers made it less appealing.

This is a great spot to relax and unwind. The bar has a lot of space and the staff is very friendly. You can also dine at the restaurant, which adds to the uniqueness of this place. Unlike your typical bar or restaurant, they allow smoking in the bar area. There is also plenty of outdoor seating available. If you're in the area, definitely give it a try - you might be pleasantly surprised.
