About Hoods Family Restaurant

Hoods Family Restaurant is a popular spot for both regular customers and truck drivers, offering good service, tasty food, and ample parking. The restaurant has improved under new management, making it an ideal place for families and professionals alike. Visitors can enjoy a variety of home-made meals beyond just hamburgers, such as roast beef melt with mashed potatoes and gravy, fried mushrooms, and biscuits and gravy, which some consider among the best. The hamburger and fries are always perfect, and the hash browns are great. The restaurant is also kid-friendly, with a game room for children to play. While the staff includes lovely, kind, and efficient waitresses, some experiences with service can vary, and customers have noted that wait times can be longer during busy periods. The atmosphere reflects a nostalgic feel, with wood paneling painted over but still reminiscent of the 80s. Many appreciate the food, describing it as fresh and homemade, perfect for those on the road. The restaurant also offers many spots for semi truck parking, making it convenient for travelers. Overall, Hoods Family Restaurant remains a reliable and welcoming choice whether passing through or seeking a kid-friendly meal.

Good afternoon Hoods, Mo! My husband and I are truck drivers out of Amarillo, Tx! Never been to Hoods Restaurant but we will be back! The staff was top notch! Our waitress Melissa was one the best yet! Great eye contact and very sweet! Melissa hasn't been at Hoods but bout a month! Keep her & Keep her happy! The world 🌎 needs more people like her! Thank you Melissa you are rare and a blessing! 8-30-2025 A little warm but over all is dynamite service!

We stopped in for a Saturday morning treat and had biscuits and gravy. Cold, cold gravy even after sending the plate back, sorry but not worth the money

Sherry is the BEST! My husband's coffee cup NEVER was empty. My tea never was empty either. Food came out fast also. My husband had TBone and he said it was the best steak he had in a long time.
