Their food is great.

Mama's kitchen in Somerville gets my vote for some good down home country cooking.

Czech American in West belongs on that list!

I have been to a couple of the ones on the list, but we did not think they rated a return visit. Food and even the atmosphere is based on opinions and what one person may like can be another's "garbage".

Like this one, we would stop there, just because of the name. 3 of my aunts married Czech's and they cook a lot different than the all German side of the family, but all of it is good.

Been to 1, 3, 5, and 10. Lived in Marble Falls for a long time. The Bluebonnet is always good food and hospitality. They really take care of there waitresses and staff really well. They pay them like $18/hr + tips, and medical insurance. Rumor was they use 500 dozen eggs a week making the meringue for there famous pies. Worth the wait in line!

Maddie's on the square on Decatur (now Sweetie Pie's) would make that list, but she and her hubby got too old and shut it down.

We eat at Bluebonnet often, great food.

Huck's in Denison is a family owned and operated single location eatery...that IMO serves the best Fried Catfish I ever ate in my 40 years of travelling most of the United States on business. google Huck's and notice the customer base reviews that pulls travelers from the DFW & Oklahoma regions, and their almost 98% approval of the draw of Hucks signature catfish dish's.

The mom & pop Cajun style outfit that followed Hucks in the Pottsboro location after Hucks's outgrew the building, finally failed in the last year or so despite offering very acceptable food at reasonabl prices...BUT they didn't have that "Certain Flair" to create a destination item that could draw folks from a larger than local county area customer base.
JMHO & YMMV

There is a little place called Catfish Grill on 287 business just south of 518 that is our new best catfish ever place. Great big old fillets that are NOT overcooked.

Catfish Sam's on Division in Arlington is like that...

I've been to the 1, 2, and 10...but I want to throw this in the mix; Coyote Bluff in Amarillo! Great burgers, steaks, bathtub full of beer (help yourself with honor system) and best of all, a questionable atmosphere...

Woody's in Cisco. "Hamburgers with Meat"

Nah...you guys are too young to remember.

What's the name of the now humongeous block long Mexican place in North Ft Worth a block east of North Main, north of th stckyards?? that later made egg flips famous...Well the flat head Ford era of a brain backfired and spit out the name "Joe T Garcia's"...right? Old Age is hell was never a truer statement these days, juggeling too many hot potatoes.

Eagle 1's apt looking "most important feature" of the place in Armadillo triggers some fond memories of when the world was young and eating in dives was a regular cheap adventure, and would apply to my 1st trip to this Mexican place ummmm before most of ya'll were thought of as a consequence of a good time on Friday Nite.

...back in the day before it got popular...the old house it was in had the south exterior walls held up with 2x4 bracing from the concrete walkway around the house ...facing a gravel road ...on the corner behind a car wash on North Main that was noted for drug deals even in the early '60s'. My frat bro from Garland suggested a finish to a great day at 6 Flags and the DA dates were all up for a little adventure, beside what we had planned for later. We pulled up and I REFUSED to get out of the car while looking at the street people wandering around, until said frat bro pointd out 3 chauffered limo's and 4-5 Lincoln Continentals's & Caddie Fleetwoods parked in front, squeezed in all up and down the block.

What a place, stand in line waiting for food, and use the honor box for beer, walk thru the kitchen to get to the back dining room, food served family style in heaping quanties that the In Crowd gang argued over getting the last scrapings off the serving platters. Went couple years later with the now BH and was PO'd about having to stand in line outside & only one person at a time could use the honor box...until we got in and were seated about 25-30 feet from John Connaly, eating by himself & half a dozen Secret Service guys watching with a glass of water in front of them. They put a damper on the crowd's usual yelling at each other trying to see which SS guy had the UZI. Football weekends were awesome crowds.

Went back several times anytime we were back in DFW from living out of state, but it was never the same once they got BigTime.

I really don't understand why Lumber Yard in Edgewood made that list. It's just "okay." I have eaten at some of the others listed and they're pretty good...but as a local...Lumberyard...meh

I'm not stopping anywhere that looks like it's in a strip-mall. Anyone travelling Hwy-77 from Waco to Cameron or vs versa on a Thursday to Saturday night take a east in Chilton and get a rib eye or NY Strip and loaded baked tater at Frank's. Best danged restraunt steak I ever had. (And I use the term "restraunt" loosely, it reminds me of the old Westphalia Store) It's at the "Y", too, between Lott and Marlin. BYOB from the station a bit further up. Same route, for a burger the Golinda store is great. They have fresh fried shrimp on Friday nights, too. They're also a convenience store, but you can pull a beer out of their cooler to have with your meal and they'll just add it to the bill. It's in an old wooden gas station.

What about Koffee Kup

That was a good place. I hated to see it go.

Kafe.

Mentioned earlier for their pies, which are really good. I always liked their burgers, tea, and coffee.

I would add the Blessing Hotel in Blessing Texas & Po Melvins in Irving....wasn't impressed with the joint in Leona the few times we tried it.

Blessing Hotel has great food, stop there every chance I get.

We'll be down there in a couple of weeks....making a point to eat there.....

Wrong forum. Belongs on the On the Roads Forum.
