MaryC Lewallen The staff is Always Friendly, kind & helpful. The atmosphere is clean & tidy. My husband & my orders always come out in a timely fashion. Usually we order the cauliflower pizza (Pepperoni & Sausage).

Lindsey Partlow Smith We stopped in here on our way home from a trip on Friday, March 7th, 2025. Our service and food were both excellent. I ordered spaghetti with meat sauce and my colleague ordered veal picatta. Both dishes were hot upon arrival and delicious. I also ordered a side salad which was fresh and crisp. The complimentary bread met all expectations. We would both visit this restaurant again if passing through the area. Highly recommend.

Cathy C First visit. Weve been searched for a great Mexican restaurant and today we found it. My husband is the pickiest and I was looking for good tacos. I had the combo with a taco, beans, rice, cheese enchilada & a tamale. The fixings for the taco was exceptional. Lots of cheese & guacamole. The shell stayed crispy the whole meal & didnt fall apart. Delish. Hubby got the Mucho dinner and loved the enchiladas. We ordered the frio sauce and nice spice. Chips & salsa so good. Service by Teresa was good even though so busy.

shelby satcher I am so happy we found this place! The miso is one of the best miso soups ive had. The sesame and orange chicken were not what I was expecting but were still great! The yellowtail and spicy salmon rolls were phenomenal. The lemonade was also surprisingly really good!

Catherine Alvarez The food was delicious, tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. But the real standout was Erin, our server. She was warm, attentive, and made the whole experience feel special. We’ll definitely be back, and we’ll be asking for Erin again!

Cassandra Gallaway Literally the best tamales I’ve ever eaten. Anywhere! The tacos were good too. Very flavorful.

Julie Oh my goodness! My taste buds are doing a happy dance, haha. This is undoubtedly the best food in Lufkin, hands down. I don’t care who you are or what you think! It’s unbelievable that there aren’t cars lined up outside like there are for some of those other places that can’t even come close. This is definitely comfort food, and it tastes like a wonderful home-cooked meal.

Dee Myall Just a very homey, comfortable, local restaurant. Somewhat limited buffet in size, but the food is excellent, especially for a buffet. Service was exceptional.

Kathryn Leininger At first glance, this place might not catch your eye—it has a barn-like, dive-style exterior—but don’t let that fool you. The food was incredible, full of flavor, and clearly made with care. This is the kind of spot where the food speaks for itself. We were very impressed and would highly recommend it to anyone passing through.

Casey A long time family favorite. Staff is amazing and the food is top notch. Even when it’s busy they do a great job of getting groups in and out. Definitely recommend and will return.

Setha Ponce It took me forever to find this place one because it kept telling me it was close to the Chick-fil-A on that same side of the street too because I was looking for an actual restaurant and this is a bus kinda like a taco truck but for Vietnamese food, I was desperate for some PHO so I did not care! I’m so glad that I tried it. The soup was delicious. I was a little weirded out By the raw meat, but it cooked quickly in the super hot soup and everything was fresh tasted amazing. I’m so happy. Look for the bus in the Texaco parking lot thank me later!

Shontavia Cole Food is only offered on certain days which Im unsure of cause I dont live there. But when they do sell food the boudin balls are a must have for me. They are huge & very tasty.

Brandon Hester We split the snow carb and shrimp combo. The food was cooked well and the lemon pepper sauce was amazing! Will definitely be coming back

Dave Drake, Sr. Don’t hesitate! This place is great. Service was good, food tasty and prices are reasonable. The restaurant and bathroom were very clean. Menu was a little messy and coffee was Folgers (boo)(would have loved some cafe bustelo or other stronger choice) but overall the food was fantastic!! Definitely give it a try!!
