Belle Mead vet won because they are larger than Harlingen. Has nothing to do with care.

I dont think thats true at all .. I have heard many complaints about issues with Harlingen from people.. Belle Mead won because they are great they have to be the most caring group I have ever met and YES I have been to all the vets in the area .. your post just shows your maturity level... its like saying Phelps just won the gold because more people like him ... lol

To the second and third place winners who were beat out by a large franchise: Don't worry, I will be very inclined to try your burger, pizza, breakfast, etc. soon! Nothing against the big chains, of course, and I know some are locally owned and operated, but there's just something special about a business that's unique to this neighborhood.

We are overwhelmingly touched and honored to have won the Best Pizza category. Thank you to everyone who voted for us and for all of the kind comments. Opening our restaurant here in our hometown was a dream come true for us. We truly appreciate the outpouring of support of our family-owned business.
