Editorial Review for Cowgirl – by Kathleen Squires
The Scene
Fun-seeking families, bawdy bachelorette parties and kitsch-loving locals have always enjoyed this down-home scene, decked out in black-and-white tablecloths, antler chandeliers and antique ads. The urban-folksy servers sing along to Patsy Cline on the sound system, which may explain why the plates aren't cleared till the cows come home.
The Food
The Southern-inspired menu offers irresistible guilty pleasures like Frito pie--a bag of corn chips slathered with chili--and a messy fried onion loaf, as well as a respectable hangar steak, flavored with chipotle-lime butter. The Cajun fried chicken could use some crunch, but a nicely seasoned meat loaf Wellington is tasty. The ice cream "baked potato," an oblong ball of vanilla ice cream covered in hot fudge, whipped "sour" cream and pistachio "chives" is a great reminder of why you're there--and that eating out doesn't always have to be so serious.

Uber hipster waitstaff who obviously thinks they are undiscovered musical geniuses and oh so irreverent. Note to staff: do us all a favor and realize that your superiority complex and conformity to a certain manner of dress and musical taste makes you exactly like the jocks in high school who made fun of you.
