Hoover's Valley Cafe — Restaurant in Burnet

Overall, it's a great place to stop for home cooking. Sorry, I didn't think to take pics of the food.

For dinner this place was very good. I had the meatloaf mashed potatoes and okra. The potatoes didn't seem instant, unlike what someone else said it was.

I have to be honest… I decided to try this cafe because it was close to home and I was craving catfish (7 months pregnant)…. First I would like to say I was not served catfish. Whatever they use is not what I ordered. Not only was it not catfish but it was soggy and clearly straight from a frozen bag. Second they use tartar sauce in their potato salad… never in my life have I heard of that…. Horrible. So bad that my 8 year old son without knowing my opinion on it said “they did nothing right with this potato salad”. I rarely leave a review but felt the need to because most other reviews led me to think I was getting something great. Don’t waste your money…. It was a horrible experience based off...
