Ostioneria Mi Tierra - (Near Lufkin, TX)

Sancudo Bravo Great breakfast. Ordered a bacon and egg taco plate and coffee. I also ordered Ranchero sauce on the side. Within a few minutes it was promptly served. The refried beans were very flavorful as well. Most mornings there arent many breakfast customers in the main eating area as there were in other restaurants that serve Mexican food. But the breakfast plate I usually order on a regular basis is consistently good. The waitress is usually attentive and the atmosphere is ok. I dont like the clunky wooden chairs they have because theyre not easy to move. But I come there for good comfort food and coffee and this place meets my expectations.

JESSE Travels A Shotgun-Style Slice of Americana with a Damn Good Burger. If you’re looking for a place that feels like stepping back into better times, Onion’s in Borger, TX, delivers on the atmosphere. Old-school shotgun diner vibes? Check. Walls decked out with antiques, small-town nostalgia, and real-deal Americana? Double check. This place isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a history lesson with a side of fries. They’ve got two seating areas—the classic shotgun-style diner section and a bigger, more intimate space that still keeps that nostalgic charm. As an antique collector, I found myself wandering around, just soaking it all in. It’s got character, and that’s something you don’t find in every diner anymore. Now, let’s talk food. The Carcol Burger? Legit. Juicy, flavorful, and exactly what you hope for when you bite into a good burger. The chili cheese dog? Meh. It wasn’t bad, but I’ve had better. Maybe I’ve just been spoiled by some legendary hot dogs in my time, but this one didn’t hit that level. The fries? Homemade and seasoned to perfection. Not the frozen, out-of-a-bag kind—real-deal, crispy, golden perfection. Service was on point, too. The staff was kind, attentive, and respectful, and my food came out fast. No long waits, no attitude, just good, small-town hospitality. Final Verdict? I travel the USA for work and have tried a lot of places. Some spots stick with you, some don’t. But this one? Pinned to my favorites for the Texas Panhandle. Between the killer atmosphere, friendly service, and that burger-and-fries combo done right, I’ll definitely be back. #AmericanaEats #BurgersDoneRight #HomemadeFriesFTW #DinerNostalgia #SmallTownCharm #PinnedForAReason

Ryan And Tiff Tex Mex but more. Its a fun atmosphere. Good staff. Great food that has some interesting twists like pablano pasta and birra tacos. Even the salsa was hot and fresh and tasted fire roasted. I really liked this place its not cookie cutter its unique and fun. Def 5/5

Jacob Pate I’ve been coming here for years and I’m never disappointed! The salsa is delicious, the tea is always fresh and once you try the chicken flautas from here, you won’t get them anywhere else! This place is a small town gem!

Esteban Barrientos This place is a hidden gem in Odessa Texas. I can no longer gate keep. This place has some of the best Korean corn dogs in town. Their custom to order waffles and lattes are awesome. Definitely a chill place to play board games have a conversation even be a good spot for a first date.

Ken Sellers We love a good Cajun restaurant. The Laughing Crab definitely *looks* like it would qualify; inside and out, we liked the decor. But Im sorry to say that the food was pretty disappointing. The fried foods had super-heavy breading that we all agreed was Cajun in name only. As a point of procedure, waiters should mention it if a side you order will cost extra, and not have a surprise at the end when you learn that your onion rings (instead of fries) cost $2 more. Also, it would be great if the waiter would check back in occasionally to see if anyones drink needs refilling.
