Culinary Experiences Beyond the Dining Room

Our Story
Anise: a culinary oasis that honors the sacred occasion of dinnertime.

Our dinner menu changes quarterly and is focused on serving unique, mindfully prepared dishes, using seasonal ingredients and representative of cuisines from around the globe.

What People are Saying
“A Great Find”
“If you want a 5-star dinner, this is the place we always send our guests. A small (make reservations) intimate place, perfect for a long relaxing meal. Her menu changes all the time, depending on what she is able to get from her local suppliers and what she is in the mood to prepare for you. Your evening will be memorable”

“Wonderful First Visit”
“What a wonderful first visit! Friendly staff and delicious food! We enjoyed chilled melon soup, heirloom tomatoes with burrata and pesto, duck, and wahoo. Then we had dessert . Who knew that bacon pairs with peach cobbler ice cream? The sunset tea was perfect as well. We will definitely plan a future visit. Thank you and kudos to the chef!”

“Another successful experience”
My wife and I had a fabulous dinner here. This was our first time trying this restaurant, and it greatly exceeded our expectations. We had the antelope sirloin and the veal tenderloin. Both were excellent. Also the lamb egg roll appetizer was very good. Service was exceptional. Prices were fair for the quality of food served.”
Jared
“Terrific Experience”
“Terrific experience!! This is one of the nicest restaurants that we had dinner at in Granbury. The chef owner is very talented young woman and presents a gourmet menu that is thoughtful and delicious. Everything was fresh and perfectly prepared, The lamb chop with braised lamb raviolo and smoke gouda grits was over the top. With dessert, ask for a glass of their house made lemoncello, it was delightful. Will be back on our next trip to Granbury.“
