"The Sugar Land outpost of this popular family-friendly restaurant has prime real estate in Town Center. Like its other locations (Memorial and the Woodlands), State Fare serves up nostalgic comfort plates like pickle dip, Frito pie, and fried green tomatoes. The menu is vast, but if you can’t decide, settling on the State Fare cheeseburger, made with Texas Akaushi beef, is not a bad idea." - Megha McSwain, Rebecca Deurlein

"Comfort food favorite State Fare Kitchen & Bar has announced plans to open a second location in Sugar Land. The restaurant’s new outpost is set to open its doors this fall at 15930 City Walk at the Sugar Land Town Square, according to a press release, and will occupy a 6,086 square foot space. The second restaurant joins the original location of State Fare that opened in Memorial City in 2016, and comes about a year after current owner Culinary Khancepts acquired the restaurant from the now-defunct Cherry Pie Hospitality. The Sugar Land location of State Fare will serve the same menu of laid-back dishes like Fritos chili pie, fried green tomatoes with lump crab, and gigantic “XXL” pancakes served at brunch. It will also boast a similar list of cocktail options, including its extremely popular flights of frozen cocktails, bloody marys, and mimosas. No official arrival date for State Fare’s Sugar Land location has been announced just yet, but expect it to arrive sometime in “late fall” 2019." - Amy McCarthy

Honestly just a good vibe. The food was amazing, things were seasoned for just a standard palette. You just have to add salt or sugar where necessary but the quality is there. I got the lobster grilled cheese, very solid flavor. Coffee was great. Espresso shot & cappuccino.

DO NOT GO HERE. I came for Father’s Day, and the experience was disappointing from the moment we sat down. Water was dripping on us from the AC vents due to moisture buildup, which made the environment uncomfortable and unsanitary. The food was equally terrible. The crab cake had a strong fishy odor/taste and appeared undercooked - we had to send it back. The table next to us also sent the crab cake back so that’s how you know it was bad. My mom and sister both ordered the State Fare Breakfast, and their meals were no better. The hash browns were raw, and the biscuit was so hard like a rock. Even after they brought replacements, the food was still poorly prepared and barely edible. I’ve never gone somewhere that has messed up hash browns! My dad and I ordered the birria grilled cheese, and that also did not taste good. This restaurant prioritized massive quantities of food over quality. The large size of foods led the food to not be cooked adequately. This was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Don’t be misled by the positive reviews like I was.

Stopped in and had brunch with my husband this morning. Great food and atmosphere. It wasn’t too packed for a Saturday at 10:30 am so it was nice to be able to enjoy our meal and morning. The portions were massive but the food was delicious. Truly enjoyed it, had to take the rest home because of how big the portions are. You can definitely tell it is all made in house and fresh. Will for sure be back.

We were worried it would be busy for a Sunday brunch, but timed our visit just right! By the time we got our check the restaurant was buzzing! The food was a good updated/modern southern focus. Flavors that are new and balanced meet old time classic southern dishes. Frozen cocktails are great on a hot summer day, and they have an amazing frozen margarita and frozen gin lavender lemonade! The staff were very pleasant and were quick to serve and make sure everything was great during our visit. We even saw the staff helping each other to serve tables or to clean up an accident quickly and safely!

I recently dined at State Fare with a large group of fellow business owners and had an exceptional experience thanks to our server, Max. He was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The food at State Fare was also top-notch. The portions were generous and everything was presented beautifully. Overall, I highly recommend dining at State Fare and requesting Max as your server. The combination of delicious food and outstanding service made for a truly memorable meal.

Great patio service and atmosphere . We had the fried chicken sandwich which was huge. We also tried the Brussels sprouts (pretty good ) , sweet greens salad (good) , and the sea bass (very good ).

My wife and father in law went for lunch. To our surprise, my wife saw a long time colleague, Kim (manager I believe)! She was wonderful and the service was great, the food was incredible! If you are looking for a place to have great drinks, a variety of food, and for us as vegetarians, it was greatly received and cook to order made this an incredible experience. Aesthetically pleasing, and some comical art work on the restrooms.Would recommend!

State Fare in Sugar Land is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by how clean, beautiful, and well-maintained the restaurant was. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making for a great dining experience. Now, let's talk about the food—because it was phenomenal. I ordered the Rodeo Melt, and it was everything! Not spicy at all, just packed with delicious flavor, and the portion size was generous. The fries? Perfectly seasoned, and simply addictive. We also ordered the empanadas and the chips with guac and queso, and every bite was just as incredible as the last. On top of all that, our server (I believe her name was Erica) was an absolute delight! She was super sweet and incredibly attentive, making sure our experience was top-notch from start to finish. All in all, we had an amazing time. If you're looking for fantastic food, a great atmosphere, and excellent service, State Fare in Sugar Land is a must-visit! Can't wait to go back!

We went on a quiet Monday night but we had such a great time. Our waiter (Jose?) was super friendly and attentive and our orders came out on time and correctly. I had the birria grilled cheese which was a popular menu item! It had a kick but was savory and delicious. I saved half and my boyfriend said it was good as well! I think the manager came to check in on us - service was A+. The decor was modern and clean inside. There are free parking garages nearby! Thanks for a great time!

Tried this place for the first time after being attracted by their large menu and cute aesthetic. It was decent overall! Foos was very good and good portion sizes; I got the pesto grilled cheese with a Caesar salad and both were scrumptious. The interior was clean and well kept. The only issue we had was with service: I don't know if they were understaffed (didn't seem to be) or just not very attentive, but our waiter took forever to get anything done (bring drinks, take orders, etc). And when he did finally take our orders he didn't write anything down so of course there were several mistakes when it all came out, so we had to wait even longer. The manager was very apologetic and seemed intent on making it up to us by giving us several rounds of free items including fried Oreos, movie tickets, and Eras Tour cups (we were a group of girls lol). So that was nice and at least they knew their service wasn't quite up to par, lol. Overall a bit of a lackluster first experience for the price but the food was still amazing and we will probably still be back anyway! I do recommend giving it a try!

Came here for a girls dinner & left full and satisfied. We decided to try State Fair because I think it's the "Moxies of Sugar Land". The restaurant is very aesthetically pleasing & great lighting if in need of some pics! Starting off we decided to get drinks, I got the OG Margarita and it was just right. It is on the bitter side so if you like a sweeter margarita definitely ask for extra sugar. For dinner, I got the Shrimp & Andouille Etouffe Plate & it was very filling. My server allowed me to sample the etouffe and the gumbo, and the gumbo was not very pleasing so I'm glad I went with the etouffe . It came with catfish & fried crawfish. I recommend you try it next time you go! Overall, the ambience was great it was very nice to try out this place in Town Center. Will be back soon.

Update: I've been to State Fare on several occasions for work and personal meals and have always had a great experience. The team at State Fare is attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly and I've always had a positive experience with the food as well. The service time has improved in my last few visits which is why I've updated my review! The portions for everything I've tried are always huge. The queso is super good as well. The restaurant is clean with great ambiance and whether my group has had a reservation or not, we've always been accommodate and well taken care of. Highly recommended!

Came here for a weekday lunch with a couple of friends. I ordered the seafood platter. Food was pretty good, especially the fish. I also was a big fan of the hush puppies and the mashed potatoes! My friends enjoyed their orders as well, except the brussel sprouts. They were a little sweet, which did not go over well. Also the étouffée could've been a lot creamier. Service met expectations as well. I would come back for a weekend brunch to try out the different menu.

Decided to come here for a family member's birthday. We came on Saturday so we made sure to call in for a reservation ahead of time. When I called, I asked if they offered lunch and brunch at the same time as I saw online that they do brunch weekends. The person on the phone told me that they do. When we arrived at the restaurant, I had to wait for the rest of my party to arrive as half your party has to be there in order to be seated. When seated, we were promptly greeted by our server. I don't remember their name, but they were great. They initially only gave us the brunch menu, but I asked for lunch and they told me they actually have a dinner menu instead that we could order off of. Fine with me! They have so many wonderful options. I opted for something that I traditionally don't get which was the pork chop on the dinner menu. I don't think I've ever had a pork chop in a restaurant, but boy did this. Make an excellent impression. The pork chop was huge! It was cooked perfectly, the meat was nice and tender, there was a nice smoky flavor to it, and the creole mustard sauce that they put on top was chefs kiss. I got mine with the mashed potatoes and the brussels sprouts. The mashed potatoes were great, the brussels sprouts were a little too soft for me. I like mine a little more crispy, but they were still good. I was only able to finish half of the pork chop and had to take the rest home, but they made delicious leftovers. We enjoyed the fried green tomatoes 3/5 as an appetizer. The grits with the Cajun butter excellent. And one of the guests also raved about the burger. Even the kid meal is a decent portion and comes with a variety of. Imagine a grilled cheese sandwich, sliced apples, baby carrots, a cookie, and I believe french fries all for $12. What a deal! They also serve it on a cute little lunch I think the only thing that was a bit of a disappointment for somebody in my party is that they ordered a salad with honey mustard but their version of honey mustard literally taste like mustard with a touch of honey. It wasn't too bad in my opinion, but if you're comparing it to what a traditional honey, mustard dressing taste like I understand the disappointment. Overall, we had a really good experience and I would definitely come back, especially for that pork chop! The servings are huge! Bathroom was nice and clean. I also really love that they had a little mini coat rack for purses. I don't know if they have too many of them, but I saw a party leave and quickly grab it after talking with the hostess.

Staying nearby for the weekend and wanted to grab a bite and decided on this place. No reservation but we were quickly seated. Soon after, our sweet waitress greeted us and took our drink orders. We were pretty hungry since we got off the road traveling just before and quickly ordered an appetizer and entree to share. We went with the jalapeño hushpuppies and the birria grilled cheese. My God both came out with plentiful amounts of food. The first bite of the hush puppies was refreshing and crunchy. They were paired with a creamy sauce and what a nice match. Next was the grilled cheese! Omg it was huge and I'm so glad we shared. It was buttery, toasted well and full of flavors. Definitely recommend.

I came here with my partner while we were in town for a comedy show nearby. We had high hopes for this one based on the menu and some decent reviews online. The menu looked like a perfect little foodie fare haven. I was intrigued by Frito pie and hush puppies. My partner loves seafood, so once we saw redfish, he was in. We ordered the chicken fried steak and the redfish. Both were serviceable but not great. They weren't bad but definitely also nothing special. What we really struggled with here was the service. It's got decent food and a gorgeous location with free parking, but the service... SO slow and inattentive. The staff is friendly enough but just not eager to get things going. It took almost a half hour just to get drinks. Don't know that we will be back.

The food was excellent. Service not so much. We waited 15 minutes to be greeted. My server took another 15 minutes to come bring waters and greet the table.

We love coming here for happy hour and enjoying their outdoor seating. The portions are huge here, so be careful on ordering too much! And split things when you can so you have more variety! Happy hour menu: Ribs are a fav and come with 4 meaty single ribs or so. They do have a bit of a spicy sauce so I would ask for it on the side if you can't handle too much spice. Salmon cakes comes with 3 little cakes that do seem to have a lot of breading. The sauce on top and corn relish is perfect for it though. Eat quickly when nice and warm too! Entrees: Birria grilled cheese - super delicious packed with lots of birria and a dipping sauce. My husband was impressed and said this is exactly what he expects from birria, which I'm not as familiar with. the sandwich does have 3 pieces of bread, so wasn't great if avoiding carbs but I took it apart and omitted the middle piece of bread. Hehe Prices are a bit high but I think it's partly bc the portions are huge. I wish they did have smaller sizes but that's why happy hour is perfect! :)

Birthday Destination Dined in here for a birthday dinner and the visit went really well. My selection of vittles was plant based burger and with a small adjust a (Vegan) burger, that was prepared really well and topped to my liking. Our server and the manager were not great at all, actually they were amazing. After a discreet and covert alerting of the manager that it was a Birthday meal she added the extra icing on the cake, making it that much more special. I have never experienced extreme loudness or a lot of noise and it was no different this night. Birthday Dinners at State Fare can be just as special as anywhere else. By the way they have a very nice bar, if that's of any concern. So, until the next time, Bye-Bye!

Oreo French toast was very good and not to sweet, we didn't care for the dill pickle dip. The crawfish and Creole Benedict was good but the French bread had gotten soggy quick under the etoufee.

I really enjoyed my gluten free meal at State Fare! It took a moment to be greeted, but our server was nice and stopped by often. I love the ambiance of the restaurant! The vibe, the aesthetic, even the chairs were comfortable. I loved it! We started with queso, guacamole, and salsa sampler. Solid start with plenty of chips. Salsa was fresh, and the guacamole was fine. I did the grilled hot chicken on a gluten free bun, and it HIT. I did not expect to like a grilled chicken sandwich that much, but it was really good! I had a side salad with delicious green goddess dressing, but you can get fries too! The sandwich was really big, but the pickles, onion, cheese, aioli, all tasted great with that hot sauce! Not a super heavy dish; just perfect for the end of the day. I kept half for later that night after my workout, and it was great! Prices were right on point, sandwich was great, and they had plenty of gluten free options. I would definitely come back again!

First time trying this place. I loved the food and service! The espresso drink was a little too bitter for me. However, the brown sugar bacon and biscuits stole the show!

The place was awesome. The food was good. That steak was delicious like lawdy!!! And our waitress Mariah was so nice, I wish her the best, definitely kind-hearted person. The reason for the 4 stars was the greeter who grabbed 2 menus and just picked us a table and put the menus down and left, we were like hey is there a booth!! She says sorry I gave my last one and left." I was surprised normally a greeter waits till u are seated before she takes off. I thought that was rude, but I won't let that stop me from giving this place praise!!!

I recently dined here with a close friend while I was in town for an event. It was phenomenal from the service to the food quality. I started with a peach pie beverage which was delicious, but 2nd round I moved on to the mimosa flight. ORDER THE MIMOSA FLIGHT. Haha we had a couple appetizers and ordered a bunch of food to share including the brisket hash, bayou bacon wrapped shrimp, avocado and corn toast, and chicken and griddle cakes. We had a ton of food leftover to enjoy.

Yelp
Holy cow was this place amazing!!!! We had the Firecracker jalapeño peppers that were stuffed with brisket and then I had the brisket sandwich which was to die for!!! Must come here again! Be careful as the waitress said Happy Hour ends at 6pm but it actually ends at 7pm!

Came for dinner on a Friday night and there were plenty of seats! We opted to sit outside since we had dogs with us and while we were the only ones, the waitress was still super attentive to us and made sure we were taken cared of. I got the shrimp with cauliflower rice which was nice and light. We also had the gumbo, BLT sandwich with HUGE onion rings and redfish. Everything was delicious and not overly fried. It was a little on the saltier side but overall decent meal for the area

Came in at 7pm on a Monday. Jupiter is closed on Mondays and I saw that they had chicken and waffles here and heard the shrimp n grits were good as well. When my wife and I came in it wasn't busy at all. Nice place, trendy decor and very clean. I looked over the menu and didn't see chicken and waffles nor the shrimp n grits. When the waitress came around I told her I didn't see any of the items we came for. She explained to me that they have 3 menus and the chicken and waffles and shrimp n grits were both only on their brunch menu. I was confused as I've never heard of shrimp n grits being a brunch only item, that's weird to me. Anyways, she then said they do have chicken n waffles all day though but it's just not on the menu. We proceeded to check out the appetizers and other dinner options when she comes back and says "actually they said we don't have waffles right now either." My wife and I looked at each other like...yup, that's our cue to go lol. The waitress was very nice but the experience and the way they break up the menu availability was a big miss. Especially since I know the chicken and waffles are incredible at Jupiter in the same complex and I can get the shrimp n grits from Rouxpour. Oh well, I gave em a shot... kinda. Not sure if we will try them again. We will see.

Decent portion size and selection of drinks. Ideal for families with a menu variety to appease all.

The food gives a fair feel, but that was exactly what I was looking for. I had the frito pie and it was a huge portion. I wouldn't go here if my goal it to eat healthy because they have so many unhealthy options. Our waiter gave pretty good service, but the bar was pretty slow. It took awhile for us to receive our drink order. The overall restaurant was super casual with an upbeat feel to it.

Start off with the NEED to KNOW! 20% gratuities are included in your bill. You need to read a small paragraph at the bottom of the menu to know this. This alone is why it's not a 5 based on my meal. And no we weren't a big party it was 4 adults and a small child.. The food. I got the pork chop. It was amazing and I can honestly say I've never had a pork chop that good. Mouth watering double bone/double smoked .... I'll crave this dinner. That being said, not sure if we would go back because I don't like people telling me how much I have to tip. I tip based on service and if you suck then you suck and your tip will reflect that. Would we have tipped 20% based on our meal and experience? No, I would have done 15% because the service wasn't amazing it was standard. If it was a test based on service I would have given it a B. Good not amazing and definitely not bad. We did have to wait about 15 minutes for our drinks to come and the waitress only check back one time on the food. The manager came at the end to ask how everything was. All standard run of the mill service.

I really loved that it was mostly quiet. We got sat right away and the food was so delicious! I loved my salad and the birria hash! The service was excellent.

The food was delicious!! Not pictured is the Birria grilled cheese and a side of Mac and cheese. Definitely get the southern farm board and funnel cake for epic proportions and flavor. Our waitress was amazing and the restaurant is so cute! The H-town hot addition to the chicken sandwhich wasn't too spicy and the birria grilled cheese didn't have a lot of cheese. All in all good food , good drinks and good service.

My birria Benedict was very delicious the waffle is actually made out of cornbread. I haven't been here in forever but I will definitely be returning sooner than later. The service was great and our waitress was very helpful.

First things first. We went on Mother's Day. One of the busiest days of the year to go out and eat at a restaurant... but we did it anyway.... We had eaten at State Fare once before at a different location and wanted to give it another chance. I would like to go back another time preferably not a "holiday" as it takes longer to be seated and the waitstaff is overwhelmed because they are being overworked. We don't think our waitress was feeling us that much either. She wasn't rude but she was overwhelmed and we ordered a lot. If you ever read my reviews you will know I always alter my order. Rule of thumb. If you're paying to eat something, get it your way. It's that simple! I enjoyed my meal over all. Again it would probably have been better had we went during a regular day. By the time we got the food, it wasn't that hot because it had probably been sitting due to the holiday. I will have to give it another chance.. I think I liked my food the best out of my other guests. It's tasty and very big portions.

Checked out State Fair Kitchen & Bar on my visit to Houston! The ambiance is super cute and is a good spot for both adults and families. Service was great but the food was ok. I tried their Madam Blueberry drink which was refreshing for a super hot day. For lunch tried their SW Baja Bowl. This is a good lunch portion size and good to have if you're needing a "healthier" option. I liked how it had hardy ingredients like couscous, black beans, quinoa, corn, and avocados. For me, I just need more flavor. I think they could improve on having my flavors in their dishes. Friends I went with were also saying their dishes weren't that great due to lack of flavor. I think if you want to go for a nice vibe with friends and family, maybe a cool spot to visit. Their bar looked nice but wasn't the biggest fan of their food and prices were overpriced for what you're getting in my opinion.

Great place for Happy hour! They have a super cute and colorful cocktail flight! All of the drinks are flavorful and refreshing! Super fun place to go for dinner or snacks after work! The service is also great! I haven't come during very busy times, but during happy hour, the waitress was very attentive and got us our orders quickly!

Sad to say this but I honestly wasn't a big fan of State Fare Kitchen & Bar - Sugar Land. I have to add a disclaimer that I went with a big party and the server seemed to be a little overwhelmed. I got two seasonal mules on the Happy Hour menu (within the happy hour time listed on the menu) but it wasn't honored for one of my drinks. The server highly recommended the redfish, which I ordered but I wasn't too impressed with it. It lacked flavor. I tried my friend's chicken nachos and they were really good.

I had finally have a chance to stop by this location. I like the interior which made me feel really fresh. We had stopped here for a brunch. The price was pretty fair and service was pretty nice. I will come back to try their dinner menu.

The service: My forever date and I sat at the high top table in the bar area since there was no wait. There was only one chair, and it was broken. We told an employee and he quickly traded us for two comfortable bar chairs. The bartender came over to us and took our order, though very busy at the bar. He was patient and informative about the drinks and food menu! Throughout our visit, he kept checking in on us and was super attentive even though he had a full bar and other tables. He was great!!! The food: We ordered the fried green tomatoes with lump crab for the appetizer. The tomato slices were smaller than expected but turned out to be a good bite for the two of us. It was a bit spicy (which I don't mind) and tasty! My husband had the redfish entree which he devoured!! I had the pork belly burger which was so good. It was definitely a heavy meal which I decided to balance with a side salad (instead of the fries). The spring mix was good and fresh. Both meals hit the spot!! The drinks: This might not mean much to some, but it's worth mentioning... they have amazing crushed ice!! This made their water so good and refreshing!! They also used the round crushed ice in a few of their cocktails. I had it in my Texas Mai Tai which was lovely. The cocktails overall were good and provided a lovely balance to our meals!! State Fare has been on my list of places to try. So glad we did!! Great service, delicious food and drinks-- We will definitely be back!!!

Holy smokes! This food is amazing! As we are looking over the menu there is a mother and son at the table next to us. We had a chance to view a couple of menu entrees which was the fried chicken and chest potatoes/cauliflower-looked fabulous! His mom had the smoked chop....which she devoured with grace. I was super excited to order at this point. So, we ordered the flights which were tasty. Only the one with Aperol they could have kept. My bestie loved it though. Now on to this food....sheesh where do I begin...ok with this bird! It looked smelled and tasted amazing. I think they marinated it for like 36 hours-you could see the seasoning when you cut into it. The San Luis seafood platter did not disappoint! It was seasoned very well. I had the chicken fried ribeye which is what I wanted and came highly recommended by our server Andreas. Lookahere...it was the most tender I've ever had! I was moaning and shaking my leg because I couldn't get it down fast enough! Good Lawd! I ain't mad ....no WE weren't mad at a thing! All patrons were extremely satisfied! Make this place your 'next up' spot! You'll thank me later!

I always bring my guests from out of town here for a good meal-However today the service was the pits. The french fries were overcooked and cold. I used to love the green fried tomatoes. They were extremely hard and the tomato was very hard. Also, I asked for a soda I asked for root beer I was told there are no refills on root beer I said no problem. I just don't want glass root beer beer well I got the glass root beer. Well I might as well say I got a half a glass of root beer and a full glass of ice and when I said to the waitress, I said there's a lot of ice and said there won't be a little bit of soda. She laughed and said ha ha ha you don't get no refill very unprofessional on my hamburger couldn't even bite into the bacon. It was like a piece of rubber. I don't like to get bad reviews, but this place used to be very nice. However, the prices have went up and the service has went down, no I don't remember. I do not recommend state fair to out of town people. It's not worth it.

Stopped in for an early dinner/late lunch around 330 PM on a Saturday. 3.5 stars edging to 4. The restaurant has a nice modern look, however has a good amount of screens with sports on. kind of strange that most of the tables had ladies having brunch, but the many screens all had sports on. Just a strange mixed vibe. I was able to sample many items. We where given the brunch menu so be aware that they have several menus that are offered at given times. I asked the waitress about what the times and what we could order and I honestly did not understand the explanation. Chips, queso, salsa, and guacamole: Nice crunchy thick chips. super fresh tasting quacamole. the salsa has just a touch of heat and good flavor. The queso was above average but was even better when you mixed in some of the salsa. I would say it was a good appetizer. Kids eggs bacon and pancakes: I really like the kids meal concept on the cafeteria trays. All the kids meals have carrots apples, and a cookie. The bacon was large crispy pieces and the pancakes where big and fluffy. was a good meal for kids. State Fare Breakfast: Large breakfast plate that should fill up the biggest appetite. You could probably get away with splitting it with a friend. However there is a stated $3 charge for splitting plates. The giant biscuit was good and the strawberry jam was very nice, I would honestly say this was the best thing on the plate. The sausage patties where large and had a nice crispiness to them. The bacon was large thick cuts with a bit of spice. scrambled eggs were ok. The hashbrowns were great on the ends, they where nicely cooked and crispy. However the middle was way undercooked, it was a big mushy mess. In the end this is a large plate. It was not bad, and its a good amount of food, but the whole time I was like "that's is a $20 breakfast plate". that being said I had a full breakfast worth of food to go. Chicken Fried Steak and eggs: I really wanted to try out the Cathead biscuit and thought a large chicken fried steak would go great with it. I should have read the menu a little better as it states its only a 4oz steak. I was not only disappointed in the size of the steak, but also it was overcooked causing the breading to crumble off the meat, it was also tough. "probably from being cooked so long" and had a few large chunks of gristle. The white gravy had a good flavor, but was very watery and thin. The scrambled eggs where fine, nothing great. The hashbrowns had the same problem as the other plate, crunch on the edge and soggy in the middle. The cathead biscut was good, but honestly I should have just got one as a side and chose a different meal. All in all the steak put a negative spin on the meal. Arnold Palmer Ice Tea. Funny story, it was one of the worst Arnold Palmers I have ever had. But I got about half way through my glass and decided I was just going to switch to an ice tea. However right about that time the server brings me a fresh glass, I did not have the heart to tell her it was bad and just drank my water instead. In summary I think State Fare has some good things going for it. I just think that many people are going to be disappointed in some of the execution of some of the items. The portion sizes are good for the price, however many of the items where average to bellow average in taste. Probably the bacon, sausage, and biscuit being the best things about the meal and those only being slightly above average items. All in all I think the restaurant is fine, but I was not overly wowed by anything I tasted. Its a nice place to catch brunch or breakfast with friends. I can recommend, but don't think I would return.

I gave this place one last shot and I regret it. The food here is still way below par. Everything is unremarkable at its very best. The mediocre service won't make the experience any better.

For the price I was paying at the restaurant, it just wasn't up to par. It was fine dining prices with casual pricing taste. I had the Chili and for nearly $20 it was less quality than Jason's Deli. Their location is within walking distance of a dozen different restaurants and I doubt I'll be back to State Faire.

I've been here a few times, mostly have a good experience. Overpriced. This past week I didn't have a great experience with the service or food. I ordered the shrimp scampi and it was so yuck! I only ate the shrimp and even that was hard. No one at the table liked it. I haven't been anywhere in a long time where I didn't like my meal at all, it was really disappointing. It's a nice looking place but I haven't loved my meals here, I usually end up regretting my choice.

Place and ambience was great the service was great. We sat outside as this was a nice day not too hot not too cold. The food was ok. My fries came out cold. I was half way through my food before she came back to check on our table for me to even try to get some fresh fries. They do give you a bowl of fries. I had the grilled cheese pesto add grilled chicken. The sandwich was tasty. Hubby had the chicken fried steak which was pretty large portion. The green beans had bacon bits cooked into it.

Everything I have tried so far is pretty good and the staff is friendly. I recommend the fried green tomatoes and of course whatever drink fits your fancy. For brunch, they have a great mimosa flight big enough to share!

Gumbo was burnt tasting and the catfish in the seafood platter was very salty not worth the prices

The restaurant was very accommodating with substitutions. I ordered the Sweet Greens salad but requested the smoked chicken from the Smoked Chicken Cobb salad as an add on (cost $6 extra). Also requested the herb vinaigrette instead of the green goddess dressing. The result was delicious. The service was great. The ambiance has a little bit of a diner feel.

My first experience at State Fare was dinner on March 30, 2024. We sat on the patio and our server was Zach. The food, was delicious and service and atmosphere were perfect. Last night April 25, 2024 was my second experience at State Fare. I was part of a group of 10 ladies. We were in a private room. It was lovely and quiet. Zach was our server. He was very attentive. Service , food and drink were wonderful. Quinton was very helpful as well. Everyone wants to return to State Fare again soon! Kudos to Zach, Quinton and the chef!
