“Best BBQ in Longview….hands down“

“The best bbq in East Texas area and most friendly environment to be at. I tried a little bit of everything this restaurant offered on 2/8/2025 and I have to say everything was amazing. You can tell it was made with a lot of love and homemade. Very delicious. Will be going back often.“

“Our waitress Dixie looked as if she hated her job. By far, the worst customer experience I’ve ever had. We sat in booth C11 and water was dripping from the ceiling into my husbands soup and when it was brought to the waitress’s attention she did not look surprised at all and didn’t say much about it and kept walking. We had 20 min left on our 2 hour timer and myself and my kids were finishing up our cream and she came to our table telling us our time was almost out and we had to leave. We normally have a great experience but I’m really disappointed with this visit.“

“We so miss the location in Harleton! Food is always great and fresh! Great service! Try the leftovers taco! Love, The Flower Fairies lol“

“I’m from Chicago and I’m visiting Longview Texas, I was craving soul food and I looked up Bells diner and I’m so glad I picked this restaurant the food is amazing ? and delicious down to the dessert everything’s homemade from scratch taking me back to my roots I’m definitely eating here the rest of my stay!!!“

“This is hands down the best bbq I’ve ever had and easily the best bbq in Longview. It was so good we came back 2 days in a row for 3 meals to try more items. The mashed potatoes and gravy is the best I’ve ever had at a restaurant, the coleslaw is so there and sweet, the fried okra is fresh and big pieces. We have tried the pulled pork, the brisket, the mashed potatoes and gravy, mac and cheese, fried okra, peach cobbler, and quesadilla. The brisket quesadilla melts in your mouth, the fajita veggies are perfection. The quesadilla is only $11 and is massive. We tried the green salsa that came with it and it’s like a slightly spicy guacamole mixed with salsa flavor blended to a puree. Delicious. The only thing I would say I wouldn’t write home about is the mac and cheese, simply because I prefer baked mac and cheese and this is more of a creamy one, you absolutely MUST stop here. The original bbq sauce is to die for. Smokey, sweet and spicy. 10/10 all the way around. Not to mention staff was incredible.“

“The restroom always clean!! This trip I decided to grab breakfast, got the breakfast biscuit w/bacon and eggs. Lawd the biscuit taste homemade like back when Grandma made the biscuit from scratch and oh so buttery and soft. Only thing I didn't like was they only had scrambled eggs but they showed up with the most fuffly scrambled eggs ever, everything just blended so well!! Oh try the fresh squeezed lemonade in the fridge by the check out register!!“
