    Oma Leen's - The best biscuits on earth

    We took the old highways home to Fort Worth from Austin today and found ourselves visiting Oma…read moreLeen's a second time, this time for lunch. So glad we did! The menu here is not expansive but it offers a very nice selection of tantalizing dishes. We opted for the fried chicken tacos. Being old timers with small appetites we customarily share an entree, but when I learned that an order consists of two, not the customary three tacos, I ordered a plate for each of us. Big mistake! Hahaha. These tacos are humongous! I'm afraid I totally failed to fulfill my duties as a responsible Yelper and take a photo of the presented plate. Attached is a pic of one, but the pic does not adequately provide for you a sense of the taco's actual size. We each had to work to finish one each. This creation is a work of taco art. A taco masterpiece. The tortilla appears to be house-made. The large pieces of chicken breast, perfectly seasoned and breaded; and crisply fried rest on a bed of some of the tastiest cole slaw ever. The fried chicken is then topped with a couple sauces that sing with the chicken and finished with house made hot honey. This taco is worth the drive to Hico from FTW for lunch. Service was once again very pleasant and attentive. And as I think I said in my previous review, Owners/Chefs Austin and Shannon have done a wonderful job of curating a welcoming, warm and authentic ambiance in this historic building.

    We've been to Oma Leen's multiple times now and it has been consistently outstanding. We've tried…read morethe chicken and waffles, avocado toast, several scratch-made pasta dishes, and easily one of the best burgers and fries around--everything has been on point every single time. You can really tell the food is made with care and quality ingredients. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere makes it a great place to relax and enjoy a great meal. This place is a true gem and absolutely worth the trip. We'll definitely keep coming back.

    Donald Citrano's Coffee Shop Cafe…read more07-12-26 Me and my family had a late lunch here. It's a nice café with friendly staff with a nice size dining room. They were really busy but we only had a 20 minute wait. They have a regular menu with lots to choose from. Traditional Café Menu. We chose the All You Can Buffet. Lots to choose from. Pork Chop with Dressing, Fried Catfish, Fried Chicken, Hamburger Steak, Chicken Fried Steak, General Sou Chicken. Mashed Potatoes, Green Beans, Squash, Okra Gumbo, Brussels Sprouts, Butter Beans, Macaroni and Cheese, Candied Yams, Mixed Vegetables, and 3 types of Gravy. Rolls, Cornbread, and Biscuits. Full Salad Bar and Deserts with Soft Serve Ice Cream! I'm not sure if I got everything that was available. Food was good. Will come back and try the Breakfast Buffet.

    While returning from a trip to North Texas, we were hungry and pulled off into the town of McGregor…read moreand stumbled upon the Coffee Shop Café. Perfect! A simple little country café was just what I wanted. What we did not know was how popular this place was. Judging by the crowd inside and the pictures of all the famous people on the wall, the Coffee Shop Café appeared to have a very long and interesting history. We were promptly seated and after looking over a delicious menu, my wife went with the Philly Cheese steak omelet and I chose the Coffee Shop Special of two eggs, pancakes and sausage. Service was prompt and friendly but it was obvious that the café caters to a large local customer base that probably eat here several times a week. Our meals were hot and absolutely delicious and the price was ever so reasonable. I am no complaints other than the Coffee Shope Café is not located locally to me. Next time we are traveling up towards McGregor, we will definitely be stopping in this great café for another meal
