Editorial Review for Twin Peaks – by Joshua Hinsdale
In Short
Donning khaki shorts, Ugg boots and midriff-revealing lumberjack shirts, attractive young hostesses give new definition to this restaurant's "Great Northwest" theme. Paying homage to hunters, fishermen and outdoorsmen, the wood-filled venue is equal parts log cabin, roadhouse and sports bar. Working stiffs, game watchers and other gawkers sit astride faux bark-covered barstools enjoying cocktails and beer. Diners feast on large portions of classics like chicken-fried steak, pulled pork and cheese steak sandwiches.

Insider Tips
When to GoDaily happy hour features $1 draft beers and runs from 2pm to 7pm, then again briefly from 10pm until 11pm.
Know Before You GoDespite the suggestive name and waitress attire, the restaurant is family-friendly--it offers a kids' menu and kids eat free on weekends.
The ExtrasIt may share its name and northwestern theme, but the Lewisville, Texas-based restaurant chain is not connected to the early '90s cult-favorite TV show.
User Reviews for Twin Peaks

I had recently vistited Twin Peaks for the first time. It's a newer restaurant, and I wanted to try something new. I had walked in, and there was about 10 customers and about seven or eight waitresses. The host never greeted my girlfriend and I, she just asked "Table for Two?." After we were seated, we had been looking thru the sparse menu for about 10 minutes. In that time frame, no one had even provided us w/ a glass of water. So, we decided to leave. As we walked out the door, the hostess was chatting w/ a couple of the waitresses and as we walked by, they paused briefly, and continued to chatter while we had walked out the door. If I could, I would give the "Twin Peaks" zero stars for their extreme lack of customer service.
Pros: n/a
Cons: No service, limited menu options
