"We will be back!! The food and the service was absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! Jayden is the best server!! He recommended the bourbon pecan ice cream pie, and it's one of the best desserts I've ever had! (And I've had a lot of desserts) you MUST try this place!!"

"Shoal Creek Tavern is simply amazing. The perfect dining experience began with the expertly trained staff. Our waiter Josh made sure our meal was one to remember. Josh knew every nuance of the menu. With so many great dishes to choose from, I followed Josh’s advice and ordered the Ribeye. Faith had her favorite Brunch item the brisket omelette. Chef’s execution is as awesome as his creativity. The Manager was also attentive and made us feel like family. This was our second visit, and we will be back!"

"We came here for new years eve dinner and the food and atmosphere were perfect for what we were looking for. A casual but gourmet level dinner. The place has the feel of a New England tavern that also happens to serve upscale food not unlike such places in New England. One of the best restaurants in Denton County."

Despite it being only her second day, her knowledge of the restaurant and the menu was a beacon of excellence, guiding us through a culinary landscape with the finesse of a seasoned maestro. Her recommendations, delivered with the confidence of a Texan sunset, proved she wasn't just a server—she was a storyteller, unraveling the tales behind each dish with an enthusiasm that mirrored the vibrancy of Highland Texas itself.

Her grace under the pressure of a bustling restaurant, coupled with her ability to make each guest feel like an honored visitor, was nothing short of world-class. Shoal Creek Tavern isn't just a culinary destination; it's a testament to the power of exceptional service, embodied by the likes of Ava, who, on only her second day, etched herself into the culinary narrative with an indelible mark of excellence. Five stars aren't enough for the culinary journey guided by Ava—a true gem in the heart of Highland Texas."

"Our visit to Shoal Creek Tavern was delightful. The nachos were the best I've ever had, and the chicken fried rice was quite enjoyable. The fact that all the food items are made from scratch added to my satisfaction. The ambience, particularly the outdoor seating with a water fountain and lovely decoration where we sat, was beautiful. Despite the heavy crowd, the service was excellent. I highly recommend this place, especially for fellow food enthusiasts."
