New American Restaurants near Kilgore, TX

“Went here on a whim, and so glad I did. It is in an interesting location, but don't let that scare you off. The Elk dinner was unbelievable. Better than any steak I have ever had. Bartender was incredibly friendly and helpful with her recommendations. I'll dream about this meal.“

“No one seems to know this place exists and I don't know why! The people who own Matsu also own To You. They have burgers and wings as well as some of the Matsu style offerings. The restaurant is nice and spacious and service was quick! I had the Teriyaki Chicken which came with a house salad, fried rice, and veggies. It was delicious and a good price for what you get. You'll be needing a to go container. My friend's son even enjoyed eating there.“

“This place is so good! We moved here from Orlando & have definitely felt the loss of Michelin-competing food. Judd’s completely fills that hole! Their prices are fully reasonable ($145 after tip for 6 people), and I’ve never seen a place fill their cocktails up so high! None of that “vegas ice” here! The place is cool, quiet, and clean.The atmosphere was so welcoming and calm. Not too quiet (e.g. not the kind where you’re afraid you’ll scrape your plate and everyone will stare) but not loud at all. They have a full bar, and a bartender that knows how to use it. The servers were all so sweet, and checked on us just the right about. They didn’t even come by when I’d just taken a bite, ha!The food was genuinely delectable. Every single thing we ate, we were all impressed with. All of it!“
