I am 100% city girl but tonight me and a few girlfriends went the country route! Our ventures took us to Love and War in Plano. The venue itself is rustic and screams country music! The entertainment lineup was good even if I don’t typically listen to country music. Ok, let’s be honest, I was rather impressed. I ordered the wings and they were damned near perfect. Shall I return for more? If country music is your thing, this is definitely a spot to check out. 🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

Fantastic food and fantastic service! We went at a slow time so very few people were there, but it was amazing. Steven, the bartender was our waiter and was very cordial and fun to talk to. Highly recommend him, if you're looking for a good steak at a fair price. This is the place to go. Haven't been when they have live music, but I bet you it is off the chain-wax!!( If you get the reference, you get five stars) I recommend it to anybody who wants good southern food and a good overall experience

We were on a very long road trip and we Googled restaurants in the area. I wanted a steak really badly, and this one seemed to be the most interesting one of the five we saw on online. We walked in and we shocked at how old the place was and how COOL it looked! It was like a saloon had a baby with a hunting lodge, and this was their baby. We asked our server for any suggestions and we followed her advice. We were SO happy we did! Great steak! Potatoes were amazing, mashed and fried! Cornbread! Good stuff! We highly recommend this place and MAKE SURE you ask for JANE! (Jane Teresa S.) She was simply the best! Thank you for hiring her!!!

It was Wednesday date night, and I had found this place on Google while we were running errands. We had been here before but didn't remember if it was thumbs up or not. The parking lot is big, and the setup outside screams, eat, and drink outside. We entered, and the restaurant was empty. You need to wait to be seated, and we were escorted to our booth. The restrooms are in the back of the building as you enter, and they are well kept. From the moment we met our server, she was awesome and pleasant. We arrived in time for the happy hour with appetizers and drinks, so we ordered the deep fried bacon and placed our order for ribs and enchiladas. The food arrived quickly, and the service was excellent. The bacon had a unique yet good taste. I recommend it. The ribs and okra were nothing out of the ordinary but good. The brisket enchiladas didn't go well as the mother of the cashew only ate the brisket due to the tortilla. The margarita was a pleasant addition to the experience. There were some issues with Happy Hour prices that were addressed. Sixty dollars for two was ok due to the customer service and company. I say try the place.

Quiet dinner before the live music started. Slow night enabled extra staff on hand. Excellent prime rib and sautéed spinach!

The wait staff was very polite and prompt and food portions were really good however the ribs and beef fajitas were very bland... It's like the ribs weren't seasoned at all and they threw barbeque sauce on them... Probably will not go out of my way to try again....
