Love love love this place! Bandera is our benchmark; Whenever my husband and I try a new restaurant we always compare it to Bandera. Maybe that's one of the reasons we keep coming back here so often! As many new restaurants as we try, very few measure up to this place. There are so many things I love about Bandera I need to make a list, paragraph form just won't cut it.\n1. Consistency. In my experience very few restaurants can pull off making the same dish exactly the same way every single time. Bandera does. We go back over and over again for our favorites and it always tastes exactly the way it's supposed to.\n2. Food. It's amazing. Some of our favorites:\n     -grilled artichokes\n     - corn bread (my arteries hate me afterwards but seriously, best corn bread ever)\n     -macho salad\n     - crispy chicken sandwich\n     - peanut cole slaw\n     - every single fresh seasonal vegetable they serve\n     - banana cream pie\n3. Service. Always friendly. Always knowledgable. Love that I can start a tab at the bar while I wait for dinner and they transfer it to the dinner table, no questions asked. And yes, the bartender is tipped out appropriately on this transfer so I don't have to worry about that. \n4. Take out. It's hard to find take out that tastes as good at home as it does in the restaurant. Sometimes you just want to eat something delicious in your pajamas and on your couch! And as many times as we have ordered take out from Bandera (and it's been a lot of times) they have never once messed up our order or forgotten anything. Seriously! That never happens but here, it just does. \n\nSo, long story longer, we love Bandera. If you've been hopefully you've had the same amazing experiences we have. If you haven't been, GO! And order yourself a home made margarita while waiting for dinner, it's amazing.
