Normally, i go to the one in longview but i was visiting a friend in this town. So I bought sloppy Joe's and it's horrible. The taste reminds me of the smell of dog food in a can. It does not taste like a sloppy Joe. I haven't ate here in 7 years and now I see why for that particular sandwich.

Very nice laid back restaurant that reminded me of days gone past when I was a child and we went as a family to restaurant!

This is by far my absolute favorite place to go to eat with my family. I don't even know where to begin. As soon as we walk in we are greeted with friendly smiles and awesome customer service. They let us know about the menu or diff items. Everything we've tried is absolutely delicious. My man loves the melman and my kids fav is the sloppy Joe's I usually get something diff everytime and everything I've tried is so good. We actually just left there I had a sloopy joe today greenbeans cornbread and pecan pie and everything was so delicious I also tried the lemon dumpcake omg so good and my fav is the jalapeño poppers. I soaked my cornbread in the green bean juice it was so good. They get fresh hot food out quick and are so sweet, great with our children. The cook is so sweet he's given my kids free snacks multiple times. The man and woman that usually ring us up they're so kind as well. They all ask if we need anything or if they can help us with anything and the man carries the bags out to the car and closes my door for me they're both such gentleman. It's always very clean every time we go in. I mean I could litterly go on and on. This place is awesome!!!Kid-friendliness: They are awesome with my children EVERY time!!!

The food was good but the customer service is what sets them aside from other establishments. They were so kind, helpful and attentive. Way beyond expectations for restaurants these days which is why I even bothered writing a review. Everyone working on 6/14/23 deserves a bonus or a raise ?

I cannot believe how amazing the customer service was here. I came today for some lunch, and from the moment I walked in I was greeted, and (who I’m assuming is) the owner immediately started explaining the menu options to me, and was very thorough and friendly. Helped me figure out what I wanted, and then after I ordered and my food was ready, he insisted on getting the door for me and bringing the food out to my car and even opening the car door for me. Once we got to the car, he noticed I had my little puppy with me, and he turned right back around and went inside and made a “puppy plate” and even drew a little paw on the box. It really is the small things. I can’t recommend this place enough, and the food was PHENOMENAL. Will definitely be a regular here from now on, super impressed! ? thank you again to the gentleman who went out of his way to be so kind and attentive!

I didn't want to write this as a review but yall don't look at your Facebook messages, I don't want other people to form an opinion based on my experience, I was there yesterday and yall were very pleasant however, after paying $30.00 the food was very disappointing, I ordered a sliced beef sandwich lean, a chopped beef sandwich lean and beans, after 1 bite I couldn't eat anymore it was nothing but fat for both sandwiches and the beans were hard, even the cats wouldn't eat the meat.

Just had the sliced beef, TOUGH AS LEATHER. I'm done with Bodacious Gladewater. Too many bad food experiences.
