DINO GRILL & BAR — Restaurant in Granbury

No one can beat serving this amount of food at this price point and it’s all delicious especially their desserts. We asked for a senior discount on our 2nd visit for Sunday lunch I was surprised to learn they’re now offering 2 meats of your choice. That is a LOT, and impossible to eat it all in 1 meal. Even my husband who can eat a lot could only finish his pork chop and half a CFS. Although I appreciate paying for a lunch and getting enough food for dinner this is overly generous. To be fair, NO other “buffet” and I mean NO other buffet not Golden Corral or chinese buffets, allows you to take their buffet home because that opens it to be easily abused. Even Babes only allows you to take home your meat entree but you can’t ask them to pack up multiple orders of all the unlimited sides for you to take home for you and your family or they couldn’t turn a profit giving all that food away on top of your meal. I get it, the owner advertised it as a “Buffet” when he probably should have said get 1 meat choice with a buffet of only sides and desserts bc some people complained that a 1 meat limit doesn’t constitute as a buffet so he changed it to a 2 meat limit. But I don’t know anyone who would even be capable of eating all 2 meats w/o taking it home unless they didn’t eat anything else. My catfish portion in the picture below is half eaten and the remaining amounts is still huge.(see pic it’s on the same plate as my chicken fried steak) I took home the entire CFS. By the time I ate my salad, sides, and a small dessert I was too full to eat my 2nd meat and that’s after having skipped breakfast. Other restaurants charge about $13-$15 a meal and they don’t offer unlimited extras of a salad with that many topping options, 2 kinds of soup, rolls, many side options, and 2 desserts. While other places have shrinkflation on their portions this place is offering more than one can eat that you’re taking home dinner too. It’s the best deal in town especially if you’re looking for the biggest bang for your buck! We’re greeted when we arrive and leave. The waitresses are attentive and friendly. We loved everything including their catfish, potato salad, the broccoli cheese soup was delicious, mashed potatoes, mac, fried okra, all good. The apple and peach cobblers and banana pudding are absolutely spot on addictive. Will be back and wish...

I would say this is definitely more of a cafeteria style, but we did get two proteins included in our dinner cuz with the salad bar and unlimited sides and they gave us a to-go box to take what we couldn't finish home. I spent less than $15 for each of us and I couldn't be happier and I eat healthy. There was plenty of options for me. We will be coming back. if other people don't like this place that I'm happy because then more room and food for me LOL Edited: had to edit my review and change from 5 stars to 2 stars because the drink and checking on customers situation was a little rough to non existent. The first time we came they had just opened so I figured it was ok that we got our drinks after waiving down what appeared to be a server and they were busy. I just came back today and was one of two tables. I saw what appeared to be a server that checked on the other table and never came to give me a drink or check on me. I sat there and finished my whole meal and got up to leave and made my way to the bar looking area and was finally acknowledged and asked for a my drink and I will just take it to go. I was asked if I had already paid for it. Which I said yes I had but I had never gotten it. The response I got was "oh ok". I thought me and my daughter had found our new dinner place. But I dont think we will ever be coming back. I will say the guy behind the line was very helpful though. Need more staff like him...

If you haven't been here yet DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. It is OVERPRICED, and they limit you on food. One of the workers stopped me as I was getting a 2nd piece of chicken said I couldn't take it. (Buffet????) The waiter stopped by our table every 2 minutes and kept asking us the same question if we liked our food which was very annoying. It feels like you're in a school cafeteria they hand you a tray and the kitchen staff loads your plate. THE FOOD wasn't fresh pork chops were at least a day old dipped in vinegar and warmed up in a microwave completely dry. Chicken and catfish were okay; the meatloaf looked like something out of a zombie movie and everything else tasted like canned vegetables.

NOT SURE IF EVEN GORDON RAMSEY CAN SAVE THIS PLACE.

Two pieces of advice to the owner Listen to what people have to say especially if the comments point out the same things over and over again. Get yourself 1 good chef who can advise you on your menu as well as teach the rest of the personnel on how to run and manage a restaurant.

There is good money to be made in the restaurant business, but this...
