How exciting to find a restaurant in Tyler that is completely unique. The Pot Pourri is family owned and run and you can actually feel the pride that they take in their establishment.
We visited the Pot Pourri house for lunch on the recommendation of a friend.
As we walked in my thirty-something husband commented
‘I feel young… and I’m the wrong gender’
He was right, the place was full of older ladies avidly talking to companions over beautifully presented plates of food. The atmosphere was nice though, the room was lit with fairy lights and there was a water feature in the corner. Even though the ceiling was high there was a feeling of intimacy that you don’t find in a place like, say – Jason’s Deli.
The service at the Pot Pourri House is impeccable. As soon as we sat down, a polite waiter poured us iced water and took our drink order. The soup, salad and potato bar was an irresistible draw for me and my choice was rewarded with an incredibly tasty variety of hot and cold food. Repeat visits filled me up to the brim!
Chris chose a chicken dish and was slightly disappointed with the size of the portion (he’s a man!) but it looked fabulous. He consequently had room for one of the Pot Pourri’s delicious desserts and a bottomless cup of coffee.
The next occasion I had to visit the Pot Pourri House was for a Christmas Party. They have 3 rooms available for small, medium and large gatherings, and can seat up to 100 people. Our party was just for girls and it was intimate and fun with excellent food and service as before. I would imagine that they would cater just as well for a banquet.
One other thing to prepare you for your visit to the Pot Pourri House – it also has a shop on each side of the restaurant. On the right is a women’s boutique and on the left is a gift shop with home décor items, toys, candles, handmade chocolates, nice cards etc.
Reasons to visit the Pot Pourri House: For a gourmet meal, girls lunch, party, to find a nice gift for the person who has everything, Mother’s birthday, or to impress an older female into including you in her will!
