“Hands down one of the best places in Texarkana to get a home cooked meal. Smothered potatoes with onion, bell peppers and garlic is my favorite. Like Grandma makes❤️ Their staff is amazing and so welcoming, this place is a historic landmark for Texarkana Arkansas? The desserts are to die for and all hand made. Support your locally owned businesses and give them a try?“
“Thank you Mr. TJ, for an amazing dining experience! We are still mind blown at the quality and flavors of our lunch. This little gem of a restaurant is clean and efficient. First, I was in awe of the service; I called to check that they were opened for lunch and Mr. TJ texted me their menu ahead of time. The extensive menu made it so hard to decide what to get but we got: gumbo, smothered oxtail with southern greens and candied yams, and chicken wings with cajun fries and cabbage. You can taste the care and passion put into the food. The oxtail was so tender and every bite a flavor explosion. The gumbo was spicy and filling. The wings, crispy and tender, just wonderful! Mr. TJ said some of these recipes have been in his family 4 generations! Every dish tastes homemade, like something your mom or grandma has made. If you're in the Texarkana area, you must stop in! Also, the sweet tea is the best I've ever had and perfect to go with your meal! Thank you for a wonderful meal!“
“Saw their post on Facebook and thought I'd give it a try. My best decision of the day! Everything is so good and the portion sizes are great. My daughter says the candied yams are the best she's had! I loved the chicken and dressing. I will definitely return. The line was long but completely worth the wait.“
“stopped here while driving from wisconsin to texas and had an absolutely perfect experience. the restaurant is spotlessly clean, the service is friendly and very quick, and the food was all excellent. every bite was served freshly cooked, piping hot, and expertly seasoned. even the simple vegetable sides were somehow the best i’ve ever had. the desserts were also delicious and tasted homemade. prices were very reasonable—cash preferred! worth a stop if traveling through texarkana and also worth going out of your way for simple, classic home cooking done in exactly right. really a special place.“
