The food wasn't great below average The only reason there getting 2 stars of the waitress was attentive, atmosphere was cute. This place could really really good if they serve better quality food and bigger portions cause when you leave a restaurant and still hungry because of lack of food can you pay an extra $.95 for vegetables and you get a bowl of mushy beans instead of vegetables and you paid $$28 for lunch that's ridiculousDefinitely will not go back

This year we are making a point of branching out and trying new places. Food was just ok. Honestly, we can make better food at home. The service was very attentive. The scene was really casual and quirky - we sat right by the zombie graveyard - yes you read that right - zombie graveyard. My 3 year old really liked the outdoor area and the turtles. We may give it another try for breakfast sometime.

Great service and the food was amazing. The outdoor area was so cool looking with the tree house.

We stopped at the Tree House Cafe on a road trip through Texas and had a wonderful experience. You can see the tree house from the road, and have to walk through a short path in the woods, over the tortoise enclosure to enter the cafe. There are decorations to catch your eye everywhere like an old fashioned southern kitchen. We ate the EZ breakfast, which was eggs, sausage or bacon, and hash browns. It wasn't anything fancy but it hit the spot. The service was fast and no frills. They turned out our food fast and got us out the door and back on the road.

What a fantastic find!!!! If you're driving by, you'll miss it! You see the treehouse, but not the restaurant! Which is the best part!! You walk down a path through the trees and come across the restaurant! There are tortoises on either side of the bridge you have to cross to go inside! We were greeted by friendly staff when we walked in! Despite the heat of summer, we chose to sit outside due to the fans! All the trees helped to block the sun, so we were fine! Plus my little girl got to run around and watch the turtles walk around! Our waitress was very attentive and did not rush us! They had huge mimosas!! We decided to split the blue burger! Tons of flavor and plenty of food for 2! My daughter loved the grilled cheese!! If you've been thinking about stopping, stop!! It's a precious place with lots of options!!! Hope this review gets seen and you get to experience this gem!!

Server was super nice. we were only family dining since close to closing timewe all ordered hamburgers, they were ok - 2 hamburger kids meals, 2 adult burgers and 2 kids sodas w/tip $65, very pricey in my opinion and was just OK, 1 of mu kids said burger didn't taste good so he barely ate, prob won't go back, but can check it off the box, have seen it for years and wanted to try

This place is so cute! We stopped by on a Monday afternoon and got seated immediately.It really looks like the cutest tree house from the outside. And inside is very cozy and feels very welcoming. Our waitress was a sweet heart and was very attentive to us. The food was decent, not bad but not great, although I can say it was hot and fresh! I would definitely visit again just for the vibe it gave and because of the wonderful service :)

First and probably last time in. We, especially our kids, were so excited to try this place and even more excited once they saw the turtles. We sat outside until the bugs got to our toddler and then waited for a table inside. We were told we could sit in the booth by the window as the family with children already sitting there asked to be moved. We took it. Big mistake, DON'T! There is a zombie out that window that terrified our young kids. Then, as were eating, a zombie head flies up and slams into the window right next to our faces. Talk about terrifying young children to the point that one family leaves the table and ours are terrified. Not to mention a family member who is a veteran with PTSD sitting there with us getting scared/spooked. THIS IS NOT OKAY. NOT THE SETTING TO HAVE SCARY ITEMS. We asked the waitress if that "feature" could be turned off and she said "it's a manual switch in the kitchen, I'll ask them to stop." So they just see a family sitting there with small children and do those types of things in the middle of lunch... During the summer... Not like we took them there at Halloween or anything. HOW INCONSIDERATE! What happens if someone sitting there chokes because of this or someone who has legitimate issues (like PTSD) or an anger problem sits there and this happens to them at lunch one day. THE TARGET OF YOUR "PRANKS" SHOULDN'T BE YOUR PAYING CUSTOMERS... ESPECIALLY FAMILIES WITH YOUNG CHILDREN! That alone will keep us from returning. I truly hope the owners have no idea this is happening but read this and correct the behavior. Running customers off on purpose isn't funny. Scaring unknowing people isn't funny. Terrifying children isn't funny. And hopefully, losing business and terrifying people is the worst that comes from this, for their sake.The service was good. We did have to ask the other servers to fetch our server as we waited about 20 minutes with just menus and water but after that, we had excellent service.My food was ok. Nothing to write home about but I ate most of the sandwich. The fries were great. Neither of our kids would eat the burgers... And after a bite of it myself, I understand why. It tasted off... A bit weird.

Don't go. This restaurant is not prepared to properly handle the growth of Magnolia and additional patrons. As soon you go in they'll let you know the 'kitchen is backed up', as you look around to an half empty place. The people at tables outside are not even apart of the restaurant seating; they're also waiting for seating inside. After a wait looking at the turtles on poorly kept grounds, you get seated in a booth with a table that's too far from the benches. You order your drinks; be advised no matter the age of the kids they will charge the adult price for the drinks, if you don't catch them. You'll order your food and then wait. They'll come back in 15-20 mins and let you know the kitchen is backed up and the food will be out shortly and can they do anything for you. You'll have to tell them what drink you need a refill for because they won't offer. The very below average and bland food will eventually arrive that you will have to force yourself to eat because you're so hungry at this point. Then it's time to ask for the bill which you will sit another 15-20 mins after they've taken your half eaten plates because the waiters are so busy talking to each other they forget to come back to you, which makes sense why the wait is so long for a table; hint: not because they're so good. You'll look at the bill and see they have nickel and dime you for every little thing. I ate with my 15, 5 & 3 year old. With two kids meals, there's no reason our meal is almost $70! The kids meal do not include a drink and it's $8 already and they charged additional $3 for a waffle SUBSTITUTION when there's no meal that includes a waffle and it's no mention of an up-charge for it with the kids meal. After pushing back and them sending 3 different people over to us they finally reduced the total bill about $5.Save yourself the trouble! There's a brand new Toasted Yolk down 1488, that got it together. Supporting this local business will leave you feeling robbed and hungry!
