Food taste, restaurant cleanliness & style was great. But the best was the service ⭐️. I’ve been to places where waitresses don’t care but that’s not the case here. Everybody was kind and helpful with the menu questions I had. The owner was sitting behind us and made us feel welcomed, also he made sure we had cinnamon rolls for the road for free. I was traveling and they made me feel like home. I’m definitely returning for another great experience.
You can get a real rib eye steak for breakfast. They offer a generous serving of bacon as well as three eggs cooked to your specifications. The coffee cup never seemed to get low and was refilled continously by an attentive server. Breakfast is available all day,This place is worth your time to stop and enjoy a great meal at a reasonable price. The cooks do a wonderful job on all of the items, but I want to especially compliment them on the steak.Why bother cooking at home? This place is great!
Won't be coming back to eat here anymore. We walked in and nobody greeted us, instead they argued in front of us where we were going to sit. The waitress left me feeling like she didn't want to serve us. She had no enthusiasm. The food was was disappointing as well. My eggs over easy were raw in some areas, no seasoning, and the bacon was hard. When we left, the waitress saw us leaving as she was taking an order and she cut our group off and nearly ran my 4yr old over when she left the table she was attending. All in all, the service sucked and it lost them a returning customer.
We were passing through Amarillo and wanted a place that served a "late" breakfast. We found this on line and although it was a bit out of our way, it was WAY worth it!! The meal started out with a basket full of breakfast rolls, and ended with a great omelet with homemade biscuit! It was fantastic!
What a breakfast! We ordered the huge breakfast platter and shared it. Fluffy, gently but nicely seasoned scrambled eggs. Deep fried hash browns (taste & texture just like shoe string potatoes). Coffee in a carafe. Little cinnamon rolls served while your order is being made (more of a biscuit style dough but tasty) Homey comfortable dining area and welcoming, friendly staff.
My server Ashley M was on point. Food was amazing, not too sweet or salty. Large portions. Their homemade lemonade is super refreshing. I'm gonna go again for their lunch/dinner for sure.
Food is always great. We had some issues with the accuracy of our order, but the owner went out of his way to make it right. Accidents happen, but we were impressed with his customer service.
I've had some wonderful experiences here and a couple that were disappointing. The wonderful ones include the fish special at lunch, the Irish stew even though it is beef rather than lamb, and they are experts at fixing both beef and chicken liver if you like that, which I do. The chicken and dumplings was excellent also. The disappointments were the chicken pot pie which tasted like it came out of a can and both the chicken fried steak and the chicken fried chicken, surprisingly since I had heard good things about them from others. That may be just a matter of my personal taste. I'm not crazy about their side dishes because they are mostly mixtures rather than vegetables in there pure form and they seem quite salty which is not good for those of us that are watching our sodium. One of the most fun things is when they bring the rolls at the beginning which is usually at least a half dozen small rolls, half of them cinnamon spirals and half of them regular biscuits. All are delicious. They have a steak special for $12.99 and I did get that once and it was very good. Sometimes the service is great and sometimes not so great but I've had mostly good experiences with the service especially if they aren't super busy which they were the other night for sure. The restaurant was almost entirely full. Calico county has been in Amarillo for many years and it is a local favorite. I rarely make it here for breakfast although I do believe they have all day breakfast so I suppose I could have it even if I didn't get here till evening. All day breakfast is a plus in my book since I'm not an early starter.
Very poor service tonight. Took over 7 minutes to be seated no one was at the front. There was only 4 tables busy when we arrived. Our server was terrible and did not care at all. The guy at the front register was playing his phone the entire time we were there after being seated. At the time to check out we waited over 10 minutes to check out.I would recommend bringing back the comment card to fix the issues before you just have to close the doors. Seen lot of bad reviews for this place lately and can see why.
Great family restaurant with multiple menu choices. Reasonable prices, good service, and good food. It has been in the same location for at least twenty years. Huge chicken fried steak.
