The DDD burger was definitely a great burger. Good size and not overloaded with too much. The onions and blue cheese were the perfect balance to the lean Red Deer patty. Great atmosphere and a nice friendly welcome to Tarpley, Texas.

I knew Mac & Ernie’s existed but I just didn’t take the time to stop. I was headed to Utopia but decided to turn around and head here instead.

Check this joint out after driving by several times and seeing several times on DDD. Fish basket and hamburger were on point. Good selection of beer and wine as well. Super friendly staff. We will be back!

Best burger I’ve had in ages! I live in Austin and seriously, nothing there compares to the food at Mac & Ernie’s. They are serving 5 star food in one of the prettiest places in TX. I am very glad I opted to have banana pudding for dessert, wow was it good!

Awesome! Stopped here on the way back to San Antonio from Garner State Park. Got the “DDD” Burger, so good! Sweet potato fries on the side and it was the first time I’ve ever ordered sweet potato fries and they actually came out crispy. 5-star fries! I added them to my burger and the extra crunch was amazing!

Prepare to have your taste buds enchanted! The fried porkchops, pork loins, and quail were expertly cooked, golden and delicious. The garlic aioli added an irresistible touch. The green beans with walnuts and baked potato played perfect supporting roles. With a charming outdoor dining area, live music, and an impressive selection of wine and beer, this place effortlessly blends celebration and comfort. The staff’s warm and friendly demeanor only enhances the experience, creating a truly welcoming dining atmosphere. An absolute must-visit for a symphony of flavors that will leave you craving more and feeling right at home.

Excellent food and service from this wonderful family owned business. We enjoyed the ribeye steak and mahi-mahi. We also had the superb banana pudding and took home the scrumptious carrot cake.

What a great experience. Wow is all I can say. The food was great. It is a little expensive but they do give you a lot of food. It was way out of the way and a little tricky to find but we are so happy we did. So much food. There were so many choices between ribeye, pork chops, lamb, snapper, catfish and so forth. Great patio area. Come out and give it a try. They have several wines, beer and sodas. By the way the staff are AMAZING!!

Delicious food; personable and attentive staff. Possibly one of the best things about Tarpley. Most Tarpley elements are near perfect but M and E ties the place together in an indefinable manner. And the food. There’s nothing close to its quality for hundreds of miles.
