Dale's Essenhaus

Great little roadhouse. Stopped for a late supper. Enjoyed the homemade flavors of meatloaf, chicken, and appetizer Jalapeño strips deep fried with fries. All the dishes were very good and the service as great. It gets a little loud in the main room, but we had a great meal.

Love the ambience and the outdoor seating area. Haven't tried anything on their menu. But there was a live music performance when I came by. The energy and ambience is great. There are some ladies shops out there to shop as well.

Oh man! This place has some awesome food. They give very generous portions. I had the smoked sausage, smoked sauerkraut & collard greens. My husband had the hamburger steak with mashed potatoes and gravy & pinto beans.
They have a taco stand, a beer garden & the have live music in the evening hours. We will definitely be back here.

As a German tourist passing through, we enjoyed the music and good food. Wish we could come again! We always have fun visiting the USA and never forget all the support we received from the people of the USA after World War 2! Thank you all!

I was referred here by a family food critic to get "the best hamburger of my life", so detoured to check it out. Possibly so!

Classic burger spot, great service.

I had the 4 Alarm Walburger with onion rings. Both were outstanding. I can't say I have had a better burger but will return to double check.

Great place out in the country to get a burger, bbq or drink a beer. Haven't ever been here to hear music but I'm sure it's a fun time based on the size and layout of the outdoor garden area. They have weekday specials in addition to regular menu items. Lots of seating indoors and out for small or large parties.

Food was good. Not great. Prices were reasonable. Service was outstanding and loved the country atmosphere.

The pictures were from when I went inside to use the bathroom. We found this place after we went to
Sweet Eats Fruit Farm and we needed a lunch after. We have gone several times through 2020 and every time we have enjoyed the German food, Burgers, and Beers off of the draft. The servers are genuine and super kind to my two crazy beautiful kids. This has been one of go to places for 2020 since it had a beer garden.

Awesome hamburgers. They also have great daily specials like Chicken and Dumplings. These were as good, if not better, than my grandmother used to make. Everything homemade and delicious.

Wait staff is great too.

Great food, live music with a dance floor. The atmosphere was wonderful. I would definitely recommend visiting. The larger your party the more fun!

Dale's always has good food, not just a burger place, their other menu items offer a change of pace if you aren't wanting one of their Walburgers.

Dale's has an amazing outside atmosphere. The food is good and the beer is always cold. We'll often start a road trip with a quick meal here or just make an afternoon of it. Always fun!

Found this place by accident when driving by! Such a treat!
Great band, pretty good food and drinks. The big draw is the outdoor area. Also ok for kids

Food was amazingly delicious as always. If you're looking for a chicken fried chicken or chicken fried steak that's the number one place to go in my opinion

Great food, atmosphere & service. We will definitely return to explore the rest of the menu.

Food was amazing and the service great! Boys loved shooting a few hoops after lunch while we visited outside in the sun.

I've been coming to Dale's since I was little every time I came into town to visit my grandmother. I came to visit today and had lunch with my grandma and it was just as good as I remembered.

Ate there last night and had the best chicken fried steak I think I've ever had. I will be back!

Delicious food. Homestyle cooking with several dishes with a German-Bohemian flair. Nice large outdoor area with stage for live music and dance floor. Food and drink also served outside. There's even a basketball court behind the stage area.

Great food, great patio with amazing live music and dance floor. Kids love it and they can play basketball out back or at a playground. Great Texas country hangout.
