Tillman's Roadhouse is a place that we never visited in its past incarnation, when it was run by the late Bill Tillman as Tillman's Roadhouse. But, the reicarnation, by his widow and 3 partners is a very good place.

The Hill Country decor, wide-planked walls and carved wood animals lend the rustic look. Then there are majestic, sparking chandliers running down the center of the long room to perfectly juxtapose the cowboy scene. And the light is low and sexy.

My wife and I shared a ceasar salad and our friend had a mixed baby greens salad. The caesar was a unique eggless vinaigrette caesar with roasted red and yellow pepper strips -- very good. The mixed greens salad had a tangy vinaigette and the usual suspects, plus something we had to ask "what are these?" They were fried avocado croutons -- crisp breading over an avocado nugget. Tasty, not greasy, and unique in our books.

The special of wild stripe bass over a root vegetable ragout was steaming hot, flaky and cooked to perfection. My wife's chipotle BBQ ribs were fall off the bone delish -- I'VE been using that word long before Rachael got her ray's on -- and very meaty and not dry. The white mac and cheese also had some smoke and she wolfed it down like it was her last meal.

Our friend highly recommended her beef tenderloin, which came with a nice charred crust and was almost fork-tender. Unfortunately, she ordered it medium, so it was not as "perfect" as it could have been. But I wasn't eating it, so who am I to say!

We accompanied it all with a nice CMS (cabernet, merlot, syrah) from Hedges Cellars in the Columbia Valley. I had never seen it before, but it was a great pairing with the right amount of tannins and depth to handle it all. At $32 (retails for about $12) it was a fairly priced markup, too.

Give it a go -- you'll love it. And, to avoid the madding crowds on weekends, go early.

We had a really enjoyable, relaxing lunch here a couple saturdays ago. Innovative preparations of even typical entrees. Mint lemonade was just a wonderful match to the slightly spicey migas. Of special note is the amazing private room in the back. If you are looking for a unique setting for a moderately large group, the decor promises to transform those typically formulaic dining events.

I was first attracted to the blue couch and then I saw the peacock room!!! fabulous decor! equally fabulous food! L-O-V-E the popcorn drizzled with truffle oil! Can't go wrong here. S'mores are great, but the chocolate special occasion cake is amazing! Celebrate a birthday there--they treat you like royalty, and really, who isn't?
