Salt and Pepper Grill — Restaurant in White Bluff

This looks to be the nicest restaraunt in this small town. At least from the outside. The inside was nice as well and gave a warm vibe that was mostly welcoming. A stage set up for live bands though we weren't there on a live music night.

The food was good overall with no complaints from the very large party we went with.

The spinach and artichoke dip was more creamy cheese that spinach and was good, but had to be reheated because the center was cold.

The Diablo burger was the favorite burger served. The breakfast burger got ok to good feedback. The salmon over rice, was a fav and was nice and flaky. But the salmon on the salad wasn't enjoyed as much and the original person who ordered it, gave it away. The garlic parm tenders were good, and it seemed home made, it was more parmesean than garlic though.

Service: here's where they get 3 instead of 4 stars. The waitresses were pleasant but a man with white hair, manager or chef possibly, was increasingly rude from the beginning, and it was mostly toward our friend who's second language is English who ordered the salmon. The man had already come out and asked questions, and when having to repeat himself due to the loudness a table of 16 plus other patrons in the establishment brings, he would get a visible attitude on his face and audibly in his tone and walk away.

The last incident was when he asked my friend how his salmon was. My friend responded "what?" because he had been mid conversation and didn't realize the man had come over and spoke at him from behind. He then repeated the question, and it was taking him a second to put it together, then he responded with it was good thank you. The man stared at him, I guess wanting more of a reaction, and then literally rolled his eyes and mumbled something as he scowled and stormed away. This was witnessed by 6 of us in the immediate vicinity, and we all were confused on what had just transpired. The man didn't return after that.

The place is good, prices reasonable, but I would avoid the white haired man.

Apologies for lack of pictures this review - I was very distracted catching up...

If I could give it 10⭐ I would!! The atmosphere is relaxed and unique, covered in different types of salt and pepper shakers (which didn't click until we left!) Hubby 2 Jameson Ginger Ales and built custom burger of grilled onions, American cheese, bacon and jalapenos. I thought the burgers were smashed (not my style) so I shied away from it, but it was a juicy burger and would've been more jealous if I didn't love my meal so much! It was cooked perfectly to medium and served with crunchy (not soggy) tater tots. 10/10 recommend.

I had the Chicken fried chicken with a side of green beans and macaroni and cheese.. and I added on the warm bacon slaw because I just had to try it! It was served with a slice of Texas toast and I got my white gravy on the side. The portions were perfect as I was able to bring half my chicken home and would've been and to bring some of the sides home, except I stuffed myself and hubby stole some! 🤣 The chicken was lightly breaded, so you actually get to enjoy more chicken than breading. I'm a Southern green bean snob, but these passed the test! Perfectly seasoned and cooked with bacon. ♥️ The macaroni and cheese was clearly homemade and oven-baked with what seemed like seasoned bread crumbs on top. ♥️ The warm bacon slaw. 🤤 I love trying new things and I needed this! It's basically a sweet vinegar based slow thrown on the grill with bacon and peppers. Y'all. SO GOOD!!!!

At the end of our meal, Chuck came by to check on us and we were able to tell him how much we loved our meal. He let us know that they serve breakfast and kids even eat free on Tuesdays... Um what??? You never see that anymore!!

And the cherry on top?? The bill was just at $50! 2 full meals and 2 name brand cocktails. Very affordable!

Needless to say, this might have been our first visit, but it will not be our...

Went to hear the country music Friday night. Worst event I have ever attended. When we arrived we tried to get a table for 6. We saw a booth for 4! We asked and begged to add a chair or two. we were told that we couldn’t add chairs or tables to any other seating messes up the waiteress. That was all good. They put up a plastic nasty table for the 6 of us. That was fine also. I even got up and got menus for all of us and let a waitress know we were there. Then another person that had been saving seats all over the place ,she was running around telling everyone she was saving seats she would through purse or sweater inthe seat. Non of the management said a word to her about this. She took the booth added a table and chairs to it. When I asked the management about the situation I was told if I don’t like it I could leave. So 6 good paying customers left and WILL NOT be back because of this!!! The wait staff is fine and had nothing to do with this. It is the owner or manager that is working the sound system that did this. The worst mangement that I have ever seen!!! The band can thank management for not getting any kind of scouting people in this place!! When you are rude to your customers you never win!!!!!!!! We will not be back and neither will...
