About Goodson's Cafe

Goodson's Cafe is a popular restaurant that consistently delivers delicious food. The chefs are happy to accommodate special requests, such as country fried bacon and meatloaf drowning in brown gravy. The menu offers a range of options, including meatloaf, pot roast, chicken fried steak, green beans, kernel corn, mash, and brown gravy, as well as appetizers like fried mushroom and zucchini. Their pork ribeye steak and large old-school style rolls are also amazing. The restaurant is well-maintained, tidy, and spacious, making it a great spot for large groups or families. Despite being busy, the service is always friendly and superb. Parking space is often full in the front, and that's a good thing—you know the food is going to be good! The decor is homey and welcoming, adding to the cozy atmosphere. Customers praise the chicken fried steak, noting that it is the best they've had in years, with perfect breading, flavor, and cook. The gravy, black-eyed peas, and okra are also highly recommended. The restaurant tends to get busy after church, but the staff manages to serve everyone smoothly without rushing. Prices are reasonable considering the quality and quantity of food. While the menu remains the same, the portions and flavors keep visitors coming back, making it a favorite spot for many.

They have great chicken fried steak and chicken fried chicken but today we had fried shrimp and it was awful. Shrimp was definitely breaded frozen shrimp..Salad had more water in it than it had tomatoes..
Service was terrible. Had to wait about 15 minutes for the food. Red sauce was terrible

Terrible! Everything was TERRIBLE! Me and my Grandma came here to Eat for Lunch! If I could rate it a -0000 I would.

Everything was Bland & Unseasoned. I’m a Chef with a Food Business who’s big on Flavor, and Goodson’s lacked it! How are you Guys deemed to have “The Best Chicken Fried State in Texas”? With Zero Seasoning & Flavor. Heck no! Do I need to come and Train your Chefs? You Guys need to kick it up on the Flavor. It was terrible. I remember when I was...read full review

Worst experience at any restaurant in my life. Disrespectful server. Disrespectful manager. Emailed and got ugly reply that didn’t even address half the issues. DO NOT recommend. Place has gotten worse over the years. Guess they made their money and customers don’t matter anymore. I was very disappointed . I’m not sure email was really from owner even though it had his name signed to it. Guess trying to keep family owned, local owned doesn’t matter to owner anymore....read full review
