"I recently visited this restaurant for the first time and had a great experience! The atmosphere is creative and relatively quiet, making it a good study spot. The chairs and sofas are comfortable, and there are outlets and USB plug-ins available. The coffee was delicious, especially the hot iced JK Rowling from their September specials. They also offer pumpkin cinnamon rolls with a generous amount of frosting, which looked tempting even though we didn't try them. I highly recommend this place, although I do wish they stayed open later."

"Great little stop just off downtown Mansfield for Soup, Salad and Sandwiches. Plenty of delicious dessert and coffee options also. A variety of relaxing seating options inside but don?t miss just hanging out on the well shaded spacious frontporch. Loved the BLT and garden side salad but will be back to try their other offerings. Daughter had the Prime panini and ajalapeño soup. Sat near the kitchen exit and was amazed at the size and presentation of the food coming out. Obviously, madewith love. 9/30 update. Came back snd had the Chicken Salad Sandwich with a side of Tomato Basil soup. Another deliciousexperience. Soups was well puréed and seasoned perfectly. Had a lite bite of spice and acidity, could sip on this allafternoon. Sandwich was the usual ?made fresh? I have come to expect from MaryLou?s. Beautiful time of year to take in the frontporch seating."

"Best burger around… yes, it is a seafood focused restaurant. Still, burger is cooked to perfection with a toasty bun and all the fixins. I like to add bacon, cheese, avocado and some grilled jalapeños….amazing. Fries are well seasoned and have a great crispy exterior. Just get it! Gumbo is as good as any I have had in Cajun country. This place knows how to make a good roux, taken to the edge of smoke with that old penny coloration. A beautiful thing. Some of my favorite things: Makers Old Fashion several great bartenders here all days of the week. The house salad yes, sounds simple, but this is a unique treat. From the fresh greens to the candied pecans, blue cheese crumbles and white balsamic dressing. Oyster Nachos the pico and the chipotle tarter make a unique blend and a great match. Peel n Eat shrimp so fresh and clean Garlic Caper Salmon you can just order a sample of the sauce and sip on it, wow…and yes I did Chargrilled Oysters caution hot shell, cheesy and flavorful Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich so good, and so spicy. I’m sweating at the thought. All of their Soups, Bisques and Chowders Anything blackened , mixed veggies added tops it off. Get a blackened pick two. Finally, Shrimp and Grits heavenly gifts of brown sugar bacon, Andouille sausage and perfectly cooked grits. Well stocked bar and great local beer selection. You will feel right at home. 1/9 update: tried the Southwest Brunch Burger, photo attached. Bacon, mayo, lettuce, fried egg and a fried green tomato to round it off. Accompanied by the always perfect seasoned French fries. First their regular burger can’t be topped and this is not trying to dethrone that masterpiece. Everything is done right for this one, but would like more of a southwest seasoning kick. Very enjoyable. 1/18 update Again with the Old Fashions…my usual, but they make them perfect! Had Southwest BBQ Shrimp Tacos with Jalapeño Cheddar Rice. Delicious with the tangy bbq sauce and countering mango relish. Talented and creative recipes come through again. Picture added. I still like the Chipotle BBQ Shrimp Quesadillas best, but this is great as it is. 2/10 update: try the burger with cheese and bacon then have them do the patty blackened … wow!"

"We ordered by phone an hour before a scheduled meeting with 10 people, incuding one on a gluten-free diet. We also had three large Hawaiian salads and three Greek salads, which we served in 2 large bowls at home for all to share. That and 4 pizzas were the perfect amount of food for everyone, for a total of about $150. Palios is always tasty, and a good value!"

"1st time there since everyone was talking about it. NOT going there again! They messed up our order and didn't give us an order a tacos so we had to go back, then we had to wait an additional time till they were done making them. After we get them, they give them to us like this! They're thrown inside the plate and some were missing beans and cheese. This place sucks!"
