The Republic Kitchen + Bar

"I love this place! It is so fun to meet here for happy hour and Adam is amazing! He is on top of it and works so hard and always with a positive attitude. He will get you anything you need and in a timely manner. You can tell he loves his job…serving is not always easy! The drink I had was the Gin Basil Smash, which is delicious and so refreshing! The Margherita Flatbread is amazing too and so flavorful! I highly recommend this fun and laid back place that’s so nice and close to home in this fast-growing area!"

"UPDATE as of Sept 29: Had to come back and sit at the bar for dinner and general festivities. My wife and I got a couple of the last happy hour seats. Plenty of tables available. There was a large HH party next to the bar keeping things rolling. Plenty of regulars that make it fun. Alex and Cam were awesome. Enjoyed the Chicken Fried Steak...A MUST HAVE! Excellent service, excellent food, fun patrons. Meet up and enjoy on a Friday evening. Boosting all stars to 5. Totally overcame the previous visit. Original Review: Popped in for an early dinner on Friday, September 8th...about 5pm. The parking lot was full so I thought they'd be packed but it was wide open. Got a booth immediately. We came here after having a beverage at elsewhere. Wanted a really good burger and was not disappointed. Full bar, varied menu, and decent atmosphere. It took a few minutes for someone to take our drink order but that gave my wife and I a chance to settle in. Dove straight into a dinner order with the Big Tex Burger and Buffalo Chicken Salad. I asked for medium and burger came out closer to medium well but the meat made up for that with a perfect level of juiciness. Excellent fat content for a fantastic mouth feel. The fries were great too...just above shoestring size. Loved them. The Buffalo sauce had a tangy zing to it but I think that's fairly standard for that type of sauce. Not a personal favorite but was tasty for sure. I remember having their salsa on a previous visit and it had a bite to it so they may tend to be on the spicy side for similar items...not enough data to be sure yet. I was craving dessert and was surprised that the server didn't offer anything. Usually servers are always trying to upsell so I'm not sure if I'm happy they didn't offer or not. As a matter of fact, the server brought the bill before asking if we wanted anything else...not another round of drinks, no dessert, no water, nothing. None the less I soldiered on, opened a new tab, and ordered Cheesecake and coffee. The cheesecake must have been frozen. You can tell when it's not fresh. Was disappointed but the flavor hit the spot even if the texture didn't. The server was friendly and attentive but seemed rushed, like she was trying to turn the table. There was a short wait by the time we finished dinner but the apparent rushing was all dinner long. The prices were as expected for this day and age. Looks like a nice atmosphere for HH and/or dinner at the bar. I'm sure the service was an anomaly. Want to come back and try the Country Fried Steak! Overall, I liked it."

"I was searching for a Dog Friendly patio and nothing was showing up close. I drove by this place, saw the patio and decided to call. They allow dogs and are very dog friendly. There is a nice patio that has a covered section and an uncovered section with cornhole. The wait staff was excellent and brought out dog bowls for the puppers. I was there for brunch. Reasonably priced drinks and food. Food was excellent and so was the Bloody Mary. Service was excellent."

"Went for dinner, great place! Service and food was wonderful. Had The Texans on Horseback, Airline Chicken and the Texas Size Brownie. Washed it down with the Big Red Rita and sweet tea. Will definitely be back! Decor is cool and meal was reasonably priced."

"The food was much better than i expected since it was our first time. The steak was a bit salty but cooked to perfection. Our waiter was really kind and helpful, just a great server! We will definitely come back again."
