The calamari fries were very interesting and delicious. The dipping sauces were perfect with it. However we both ordered burgers and they were both burned and dry. My onion rings were even a bit over done. On top of that as soon as the burgers were brought to us we asked for mayo, the waiter then saw to a table of 12 while waited for mayo to dress our burgers. I ended up going to the front counter to get the mayo myself and by then my dry burned burger was also cold. We may give them a second try we did see other items that looked good on the menu and I do believe in second chances.

Driving through downtown LJ, the hubby and stumbled across this incredible restaurant. The Appetizer, my first time having mac & cheese bites 🥰 and my dinner- Fish & chips & cole slaw was perfect. The fresh baked cookies- incredible. Our server Tori was so friendly, and wonderful. We will be returning for sure!

Good lunch choice if you are in the LJ area and you don’t eat fast food. I got the Californian wrap with a side Caesar salad. The Caesar salad was pretty delicious with fresh vegetables and I have to say the dressing is really good. I believe it’s vegetarian so no anchovies. The wrap was OK. The vegetables were a little salty in my opinion but it was still an OK lunch. I really like that it had goat cheese and hummus in the wrap. If I was in the area I would definitely get the salad again probably with chicken as an entrée. But I would not order the wrap again. Oh and the employees were super nice on the phone and in person. I do wish they had an online order option for their website.

Lemon blueberry crème brûlée. Roasted chicken, and crunchy wasabi salmon are AMAZING!!!! The staff is great and the atmosphere is very nice for a romantic dinner!!!! This place is highly recommended.

We were in Lake Jackson for a day and decided to eat at The Local. Wow. From the cocktails to the desert, everything was top notch. My wife had the wasabi crusted salmon and I had the Angus Filet. The filet was cooked to perfection, the asparagus were deliciously smokey with a nice crunch but very tender, the fried onions were outstanding... Just fantastic! We shared a blueberry lemon creme brulee for dessert. I am very critical of my creme brulee and this one was outstanding! Would definitely recommend!

Service was great. Tanner was very nice and brought things out super quick. Thanks for the wonderful experience!

Food was great and service was pretty good. Sweetie cookies and others for desert were a great treat after the meal. Unfortunately for them and so many other businesses the prices have gone expensive and won't be frequenting them as I used to. Also while we were eating they came and put reserved signs on all of the tables except for ours and a couple others since they were occupied. The courteous thing to do would be to tell your tables of customers what's going on so they don't feel rushed out of your establishment.

Food is delicious. Great atmosphere. . Not sure what the non-alcohol tax is for? First time seeing this on the bill.

This is our favorite local restaurant. The food is always amazing. The staff is kind and provides excellent service. The atmosphere is so comfortable and welcoming. The outdoor patio seating is a beautiful calming experience. This special place is a must when in Lake Jackson!

I usually visit the bakery or lunch items. I chose to try out their dinner menu which also meant an elevated dining experience. I ordered the salmon with fresh green beans and garlic mashed potatoes. It was delicious. Don't be afraid of the wasabi lime crust on the salmon. It's not overpowering and thankfully the salmon wasn't overcooked. They have many dinner options so check out their menu online.
