What our guests are saying
I grew up in Texas and ate at places just like this. Man the memories it brought back! The food is so good, The Heart Burger I would vote as the best, Chicken and Waffles made In The shape of Texas great look, sweet tea served in a tea pitcher’s loved it.

So glad we stopped here on our road trip back to Texas. Home style cooking . Had the lunch special chicken and dumplings, hubby had their huge hamburger. Tea comes in your own personal pitcher- just add the straw. Food was definitely home made. For desert had one of their many desert choices- chose the caramel apple dump cake since it's fall ya'll. Met the owner who is from Texas- and menu, friendliness, and atmosphere speak to that. Wish we lived closer- it would be a weekly visit.

What a wonderful place. My family has been here many times, and when I came into town from Minnesota, we brought 7 of us together. The waitress was wonderful, the food was delicious, the atmosphere was relaxing and fun. Will make this a stop every time I'm in town.
