4 Way Cafe

This place is a jewel! We are in the area for the weekend with some very picky eaters. The atmosphere is very quaint and cute with small tables and booths. Black and white check tablecloths are so cute and the decor is not overdone. The staff are friendly and attentive. And, the food was amazing. We had breakfast and chose from a nice selection of entrees. The food was so good my 13-year old granddaughter left the tip. Trust me, this is a big deal. Will definitely come back again. Maybe tomorrow!

Chicken fried chicken special with mashed pos, beans and cornbread.

Great home-cooked meals, great people, and friendly service. I love this local establishment.

So, we stumbled on this place accidentally and it was quite possibly the best stumble we have ever made. The food here is off the chain! I could dedicate an entire page to their biscuits. Honestly they are the best biscuits I have ever had. They don't need butter, or jelly, or gravy, or anything else. They are absolute perfection just as they are! Everything on the menu has been amazing so far. Try the apple walnut cake too if you're a dessert eater. SO good!! The service here is so very friendly too. Our server was on top of everything and gave us a beautiful smile to boot. Sure is a change of pace coming from the city where everyone is going a million miles an hour and is grumpy all the time. This is down home, feels like family, mom or grandma's cooking at it's best. My only complaint is that they aren't open every day of the week. A girl needs her biscuits on Mondays too! ;)

Just exactly what can one say about a perfect meal?…read more First off, I'm ashamed I can't remember the name of this drink. It's a variation of an Old Fashioned. Bunny's "God of Fire." Sorry, had stop right there and look it up. It's double smoked Ironroot Prometheus bourbon, angostura & walnut bitters, and a toasted marshmallow. I don't know who thought this up, but I want to kiss them. It's a little smoky and a little sweet, but subtle. And the longer it sits, it gets almost a little creamy. Especially nibbling on the toasted marshmallow before and after. I tried both. Sublime, a little surreal. I feel like I need a long night drinking just these in slow deliberation. That might be a good hot summer night activity. The deviled eggs? Honestly, and maybe I should be ashamed of this, I can't remember if I've ever had deviled eggs with ham in the mix. Or for that matter, with Texas caviar. Like, what even have I been doing with my life? The Wagyu Tartare came with house okra relish on the corner of the plate, drops of fried egg mayo, these little tiny blue flowers called Borage blossoms, that I, a grown ass man, somehow much closer to 50 than I ever planned on, just got fucking giddy about. But, I tell you what, don't you dare scoop some of that Rosewood Ranch beef tartare onto one of those in house made sumac dusted kettle chips with a dab of that okra relish, take a bite, nibble that toasted marshmallow, and then sipped the Bunny's God Of Fire, and then tell me you didn't step thru a motherfuckin' looking glass of some kind. Softly surreal. Comforting. Sublime. Also, just FYI, you don't really appreciate the okra relish until you try it by itself. There is a crispness to it that is almost etheral. And then you feel like you understand the sensory play of texture and taste a little better. My entree was the 14oz Texas Akausi strip, with the hand cut fries, and horseradish mayo. Seasoned with high quality fine French sea salt and black pepper, pan seared in Wagyu tallow and basted with thyme, smashed garlic clove, and butter, before finishing in the oven and sitting in a container of melted Waygu tallow before resting on the cutting board and being sliced. Read that again, slowly. It sounds like a night in bed with Jane Mansfield. I don't know how else to describe. Why yes, the fries are amazing. Of course they are. Everything is amazing here. I feel silly, like I'm just on here hyping one of my favorite people and food spots, but Oh My God, have you even been here? Everything is great. But if I'm being honest. For true true. That softly medium rare Akausi with a dab of that horseradish mayo, another sip of Bunny's Fire Of God. It's a sensuous experience. For dessert, I got the chocolate mousse, and the homie got the First Amendment Lemon Pound Cake, which Lance McWhorter came up with in honor of Afroman winning his case against "The Man." As if I needed anymore reason to love him. The chocolate mousse, I'm afraid I could eat this by the tub. Like, I brought home half my steak and fries I was so full. Wouldn't have even thought about dessert had I been anywhere else. I damn near licked the bowl clean at the table like a dog. Just embarrassing. That glob of white stuff, are super cheesy grits. I'll post some pics of food we got to see as it was prepared later, but, I will say, yes, it was delicious. Especially on the fries. Honestly, I think I can make a meal of the eggs and tartare alone. And Bunny's Fire Of God. Absolutely stellar meal. But more than that. It's an experience. One I highly recommend. I'd give it a scale rating, but there's no scale for this. Not in these parts. This place is in a class all it's own. It's another beautiful day, East Texas. I hope you're enjoying it. #ztfu #sabaileyproject #iloveyouetx #writerfoodiegunguy #foodiesofetx #hippiebarbarian #foodiesofdallas #foodiesofig #easttexas #tylertx

The food may be the selling point, but the service and attitude left a lot to be desired. I never…read moreread restaurant reviews before I've had the opportunity to dine there. I like to have an open mind and for my own opinion on what I've experienced. Unfortunately, my experience here was overshadowed (seems like many other customers have had the same problems) by poor service, loud music, and an owner (just reading his replies on yelp tells a lot about his character) who cames across as rude, dismissive, and very assumptive. Instead of making customers feel welcome, the interaction felt more like we were an inconvenience. Good customer service should be part of the experience, regardless of how well-known the restaurant or owner thinks they are. And apparently, the owner's biggest flex is having appeared on Food Network's Chopped. That accomplishment gets mentioned enough that you would think it was the restaurant's entire identity. From what I understand, he made it to the finale but finished second. Whatever the exact spin, being on Chopped shouldn't be an excuse for treating customers poorly. A restaurant should create an atmosphere where people can actually enjoy their meal and talk without having to compete with the speakers. At the end of the day, bragging rights and television appearances don't replace good service, respect, and hospitality. I came in expecting a good dining experience and left feeling like the attitude was more memorable than the food.

Just had a great lunch at Judd's celebrating my husband's 75th birthday. The place was mostly empty…read moreso it was quiet and we could talk. UNTIL: a family of 5 were seated in the booth next to us. 2 young children, one 3-4 years old, another in a stroller. The older one hung on the glass barrier between the booths and it bent under her weight. I worried it would break and injure my 90 yr old mother. Parents were only interested in their phone. Then the baby started screaming, again no attempt by parents to comfort. No waitresses or owner intervention to request control. Another patron strolled over and politely asked that the quiet the child. Father rudely told the "old man to f' off and go sit down." Only then did the "mother" attempt to quiet the child. They then proceeded to complain to the manager that the man had been aggressive. He apologized to them! My husband and I got up and went and thanked the man. He was only a few minutes ahead of us complaining about the children. We could not talk to each other as we ate because we couldn't hear each other. So this is a good/bad review. The food was great and worth the money for our celebration but our experience was ruined by staff/managements failure to provide a nice environment and parents not willing to control their children. We might be back.

I love old downtowns. It's nice to see old businesses repurposed. The food was very good as was the…read moreservice. I'll be back next time in town.
