Reviews For Rockin' Roadrunner

If you're looking for a delicious, off-the-beaten-path experience, check out this place. The Pho was great, and the "Roadrunner's Nest" was fantastic. The place was super clean and the people couldn't have been nicer. Worth a trip off the main road, but go early; the small kitchen can get backed-up during the dinner rush.

Stopped by today with a friend and had the absolute best experience imaginable. The folks who run the place are some of the kindest, friendliest folks I’ve ever met and it made the experience all that much more pleasant and a downright pleasure on top of how outstanding the food was. All made from scratch, super fresh, and you can TELL. I will 100% be coming back often and recommending this lovely little gem to everyone I know. I am confident anybody who goes will have a lovely experience and be so glad they were there.

Hidden gem is 100% accurate. The food was amazing!! The location is a little off the beaten path, but don’t let it fool you. I believe it’s just the two people running it, so be patient and you’ll get some delicious food!

Absolutely fantastic! Essentially like eating in your grandma’s kitchen. The food is so good, but be patient as each dish is made from scratch and it’s just a few folks working there. We had house made Kimchi, dumplings, and garlic pork. With so few options in Canyon Lake this is a must go to!

Very pleasant surprise! Simple menu but items very fresh and generous portions. Nice to have this tiny Asian/American Eatery in our area. I had the Fried Rice Specialty - nice pieces of chicken, shrimp and beef mixed w good veggies. I also got the Spring rolls - very fresh! Watched her making them. Support this great little local spot. I hope they put a sign out on the main road to allow folks to find them.

This is a true hidden gem. Fresh food, made from scratch, cooked to order cuisine. It’s a small, unique establishment. Serving you fresh herbs from their garden, you won’t regret your meal here. Some of the best food I ever had, thank you!!!

Saw some great reviews on Google and had to check this place out. Tiny place, friendly staff, and delicious fresh food! I had the Roasted Peanut Beef. Fabulous, especially with the housemade Fish Sauce. My husband enjoyed the Rockin' Chicken and my adult daughter had Larry's Special. We all shared and every dish was brimming with flavor. This place is definitely a unique experience and such a nice departure from fast food. We live in Spring Branch on the other side of the lake, about a 30 minute drive. Well worth it (and a lovely drive). We will be back for sure!

As stated from previous posters this place is off the beaten path. You will think you took the wrong road. You will think Google maps directed you to the wrong place as you pull up to a brown shack looking building. But, you have arrived!!Make sure you go when you are hungry! So far our favorite dish is the Large Fried Rice Special.We have been twice in two weeks. I don’t know the full story of how the owner ended up there. Looks like she had a bigger restaurant at one time. Please be patient when you go. The owner cooks all the meals after she takes your order.
