    The Stephenville TX culinary scene recently received a big boost when Stephan Pyles opened his modern TX restaurant, The Seeker, alongside the 33 room 1950's retro motel The Interstate Inn. The menu, decor and staff at The Seeker left nothing to be desired during our Happy Hour visit and dinner. Andrea, the General Manager, assembled and trained an eager friendly staff to serve the restaurant patrons. Decorated in the same vibe as The Interstate Inn, the dining room reminded me of restaurants my family ate at when I was a young child in the 1950's. Who is to say what is the best dish or cocktail on the menu? Try a few of each for yourself! Each dish has something out of the ordinary. Everything we ate and drank was creative, made with quality ingredients, prepared, plated and served professionally. (Wait to you see the Caesar salad plating) If you don't have room for dessert, get one to go for a late night snack. Get a head start on the menu at their 3-5pm Happy Hour, you will be glad you did. Snack and drink prices are your best friend. Make your dining and motel reservations now because the dining room was packed on a Tuesday night.

    Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We're thrilled to hear that your experience at The Seeker—and the retro charm of The Interstate Inn—left such a lasting impression. From the creativity in our kitchen to the warm energy of our team, it's all about making guests feel at home while delivering something special. We're especially glad you enjoyed the Happy Hour offerings and that our Caesar salad presentation caught your eye—it's one of our team’s favorite touches! We hope you'll visit again soon to try even more of the menu (and maybe sneak in another late-night dessert). Thanks again for dining with us and for sharing the love!

    My wife was familiar with Stephan Pyles and heard about his restaurant in Stephenville. She wanted to try it for her birthday. The service and the food were exceptional and truly provided a great experience for my wife’s birthday.

    After making our reservation online, I called to insure we could be seated on the patio. Hardly anyone was on the patio, so the call hadn’t been necessary, but we were very happy we sat outside - it was a pleasant evening, the outside areas are outstanding, and we could hear each other without the poor acoustics we had previously experienced inside. We started with mixed cocktails and the trio of ceviches. For entrees we ordered the salmon and the ribeye. Our margarita and ranch water were perfect. I recommend the salmon - it was absolutely delicious. Seared and served over the most delicious grits with a flavorful golden tomato sauce.

    Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're so glad you enjoyed a beautiful evening on the patio and found the atmosphere more comfortable for conversation. It's great to hear the cocktails hit the mark and that you loved the salmon—we’ll pass your kind words on to the kitchen team.

    I loved the retro vintage vibe. It was my husband’s birthday and he ordered the eggs Benedict and loved it. My son loved his hamburger. My quail dish was not to my liking and our server immediately took care of the issue. A free dessert was given for my husband’s birthday day such a nice touch. The manager took the time to come by and have a nice chat! Wonderful dining experience!

It’s always a pleasure to add a little extra touch to make your experience special. We're thrilled you had a wonderful time and enjoyed chatting with our manager.

    2nd time to The Seeker. As the last everything was excellent. Emma was our server and did an excellent job. Steaks and Chicken were all excellent. We were celebrating an Anniversary and they recognized that with keepsake menus and deserts. George stopped by to check on us and recommended the Bread and Butter pickles that were just like grand ma used to make. Then he recommend the pickled Watermelon rinds that were tasty. Topped it off with the bread desert with ice cream and it was a great evening. We will be back for sure. And have to mention the pickled fried green beans that were a big hit with the table from some who not green beans fans. Thanks again.

    Thank you so much for joining us again—and for celebrating such a special occasion with us! We're thrilled to hear everything was just as excellent as your first visit. Emma will be delighted to know she made your evening memorable, and George always enjoys sharing his favorite picks (those pickled watermelon rinds are a hidden gem!). We’re glad the keepsake menus, desserts, and extra touches helped make your anniversary dinner special. Can’t wait to welcome you back for more amazing food and new favorites. Cheers to many more celebrations!

    A truly unique find in Stephenville! The atmosphere is retro-cool vibe and the food is excellent. The ceviche tasting was fresh and played with a special twist. The fried chicken was the best we have had ever!! We sat at the bar and Jade made us a super dirty vodka martini and the tastiest fresh margarita. Can’t say enough about our experience- plus we finished and walked back to cool suite at the new and fabulous Interstate Inn!
    The SeekerResponded on May 27, 2025
    Thank you, Scott & Chuck! We're thrilled you had such a memorable experience with us. From the ceviche to the fried chicken, it sounds like you enjoyed some of our favorites! Jade will be so happy to hear your kind words—she truly shines behind the bar, and we're lucky to have her. We’re glad you got to enjoy the full downtown Stephenville experience, from The Seeker to the Interstate Inn. Hope to welcome you both back soon for more great food, drinks, and vibes!
