    Ribeye steak
    Martha B.

    Ribeye was excellent added fish, a plate, and side salad! Food was great! Nice atmosphere laidback country comfortable!

    Yes, that is two steaks!

    First things first. The bad news. Bring your cashola or use their ATM. End of the world? No. But could be annoying to some folks. We stopped by on a short road trip from the DFW area to look at property close by. While looking at the property, my husband commented that one of the selling features was this restaurant. HA! The nice lady that waited on us was great and the food came out crazy fast. And, to say my husband was happy with his meal is an understatement. They do not skimp on the portion sizes and my husband ended up only eating half of the steak and one side. He happily packed it up in our cooler to take home. But, listen to the waitress when she tells you how big the portion sizes are and accept the "to go" container she drops off. The prices are so much cheaper than we experience at home and the place is Texas decor "rustic" but clean. I have some weird food allergies and they were very helpful with checking on ingredients for me, so I sincerely appreciate that extra effort. I could see this being a place we head to when we just feel like getting out for a weekend drive. Still looking for property in the area too!

    As far as Paris area establishments this is your best choice. The hamburgers are "real" . It is refreshing to be able to eat at a friendly place that offers authentic fries and not the standard frozen ones from Costco. The portions are reasonable. It is always more than I can finish. The new building is beautiful and you're able to carry on a conversation while you dine.

    This place has the absolute best steak within a 100 mile radius of Paris TX. Definitely worth going...But take cash because they don't take cards!

    We were passing through Bonham, so I jumped on yelp to find something good to eat & came across…read morethis place. Although they didn't have a bunch of reviews, the ones they did have were good - so we decided to give them a try. Walked in around noon on a Friday to an empty restaurant, that's usually not a good sign. Our server looked like she'd just rolled out of bed but at least she was there I suppose. There was also a young school aged girl sitting in a booth who was semi watching a little toddler (employees children I assume)? We had to listen to Miss Rachel sing Old McDonald & the toddler running around being loud. The food wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. They had good tea, I will give them that. It's a nice place, it was clean & conveniently located downtown near other businesses - which is why I couldn't understand why they weren't busy. I guess the locals might know something I don't. We were the only ones there the entire time. I know good help is hard to find these days, so you may have to settle for what you can get, but your employees can also make or break you as well. First impressions are everything, and although we were just passing through, I don't think I'd go back.

    Finally! Bonham got a good place to eat breakfast!…read more I ordered the Texas Classic breakfast and opted for bacon and biscuit with it. The bacon is a good, quality bacon and was cooked to perfection. The hash browns were cooked exactly how I like them...crispy. my eggs were cooked exactly like I ordered them. Now let's talk about that biscuit. Yes, it is worthy of its own paragraph. It is homemade, and so delicious. Yum! Hubs ordered the ham and cheese omelet with a side of fruit (he's on some new diet kick). He said it was very flavorful with lots of cheese. His fruit was very fresh. As an after thought, I ordered the sourdough toast just to try it. So good! So buttery. It is hard to choose between the toast and biscuit. Both are winners. I cannot wait to come back here for lunch or dinner! I glanced at their menu, and their prices are super reasonable. The service was super friendly and attentive. I am a suckered for rustic café decor, and this one is very charming. They have a really cool painting. I took a photo. Another after thought...hubs saw pumpkin lattes, so he ordered one to go. I am not usually a latte person, but I am an "everything pumpkin" person. Well, now I may become a latte person, too. Excellent!

    Best donuts in town, such as that may be. I only rarely eat these things as they aren't tasty…read moreenough to offset the damage done to my diet. On the other hand that's also the reason why I usually can't justify downing a second glass of most California wines. But these donuts are quite good: fresh with an open and airy structure and the apple fritter has actual bits of apple, or so it seemed. But there's something odd going on here, not specifically in this shop in Cooper but... Have you ever noticed how many donut shops all around are called "Good Donuts" or is it, as often the case lately: AM I THE ONLY ONE???? Well that's how it is anyway! See, all around the country it's Good Donuts here and Good Donuts there and that's how it is. Open your f'n eyes willya! (Sorry but I can get pretty worked up about things. Yet everybody is always telling me it's only in my head?) So this is just another example and proves my case, but why is it? The other thing I've noticed is that most if not all Good Donuts shops, including this one (and in fact a predominant number of donut shops of all appellations) are owned by Asians. This one is typical both in that regard, and in being very well maintained with excellent product quality, especially the ones with custard filling. So what up wid dat? I think it's related to the tradition of Chinese coffee/bakery shops, which you may recall I've reviewed from every Chinatown in the country. I lived in such neighborhoods in nyc, sf, LA and Philly, in fact they're my go-to for many things. So there you have yet another mystery and one not even my beautiful China girl can explain. What she doesn't do is suggest it's only in my head. Smart, too.

    Yes. Cheap,convenient,cashier is super nice, and over all just so good! Definitely recommend. In my…read moreopinion it's the best donut shop in that town!
