TipTop is Tip Top 2/7/2003

In addition to the best Chicken Fried Steak in Texas, these guys make onion rings to die for. The rings come piled high on a platter and are usually served like an appetizer with enough for two people. If two people can eat all the onion rings and each finish off the Chicken Fried Steak, they have healthy appetites. Pros: Inexpensive, Great food, blast to the past Cons: more parking, crowded more

always great! 11/11/2002

Tip Top is a restaurant where the food is great all the time. You might have to wait to be seated but it will be worth it. If you're there, be sure and have the onion rings. They are awesome and one order will probably serve 3-5 people easy. Also, save room for a slice of pie. Everything at Tip Top is comfort food. The wait staff are also great . It will remind you of an old-fashioned diner. Pros: Great value more
