Brown Dog Eatery

Stopped by Brown Dog Eatery today. It was pretty busy, but we were still able to find seating without much trouble. I started with the fried green tomatoes, and they were cooked perfectly—crispy on the outside and full of flavor. For my meal I had the Austin Popper Burger with grilled onions, bacon, local pepper jelly, and a grilled jalapeño cream cheese spread on a brioche bun. The combination of flavors was outstanding. The potato salad on the side was different from the usual kind—more like eating a loaded baked potato with everything on it. Really unique and very good. Great food, good atmosphere, and definitely a spot I’ll be stopping by again next time I’m in town.

We had a great experience here. The server and hostess were both very friendly, and although the bathroom was in a somewhat unusual location, everything else made up for it. The place can get busy any night of the week, and since it’s on the smaller side, it fills up quickly. Parking is your typical downtown-square setup—busy and a bit limited—but manageable with a little patience. We started with the duck fries, which were fantastic. We’re not even big collard greens people, but the dish was rich, flavorful, and honestly could’ve been a meal on its own. For entrées, we tried the Fresh Prince Philly and the medium Southern Charm burger. The Philly was really good, and the side of grits was so delicious—there’s definitely some creative magic happening in that recipe. The burger itself was tasty, though it could’ve used a bit more pepper jelly. The huge portion of sweet potato fries with honey created a perfect sweet-and-salty combo. We finished with the special honey nut crunch cheesecake, which was just as interesting as it was delicious. The layers had great flavor and made for a fun twist on a classic dessert. Overall, it was a fun outing, and if we’re ever passing through again, we’d definitely stop back in.

This place never disappoints, the service is always great even when it is crowded. The food is excellent and there are so many choices of farm to table flare. I love love love the fried green tomatoes! Highly recommend if you have never gone while in Carrollton.
