The Gristmill was an amazing place to have dinner. We were seated near an open air window with a beautiful view and across from the cozy fireplace with a warm fire--so the atmosphere was unmatched! Camille, our waitress, was attentive and did a great job! The onion rings, salad, dressing, veggies were all delicious & the baby back ribs fell off the bone & melted in your mouth. The lights on the grounds were spectacular & it all made for a beautiful evening! Kudos!!!

My son ordered the ribs. Minutes later the waiter says sorry but they sold out.

Business response:

Elvia- Thanks for letting us know about your experience. We are so sorry to hear it was less than great! The ribs are a specialty item and sometimes we do sell out. We sincerely apologize for the handling of the situation and how that communication played out with you. We have spoken to the manager on duty regarding this situation so as not to have it happen again. Can you send us a private message? We would like to discuss it a little further. Thanks!

What a beautiful scenic venue. Service from Taylor was exceptional and made a very special birthday that much more special!! It was a chilly day but we sat by the fireplace and had a great lunch. Food was great and surprisingly affordable.

This restaurant is my absolute favorite restaurant in New Braunfels. The steaks are delicious and the one time we had gotten a steak that was well done instead of medium they instantly fixed the mistake. My husband loves the homemade fries while I prefer their coleslaw and the potato salad. The garden salads they serve with their steaks are also delicious. I had the blue cheese dressing and the raspberry vinaigrette so far and loved both. All the food we have been served was prepared with fresh ingredients. Besides the good ... read more

Our server, Cooper, was AMAZING to us tonight. We were on the 3rd level of the restaurant and my kids had plenty of questions about the mill and I about the area. Cooper had never ending answers and superb service. Thank you, Cooper, from the Souter Family from Dallas.
