We asked our waiter, Cory if this was a favorite of the locals and he didn't hesitate to say "We've got the best customers ". I ordered the pistolettes because I had never had them and they were so delicious. Hubby had a cup of chicken and sausage gumbo and was very pleased. I ordered the seafood gumbo and hubby ordered grilled fish pontchartrain. We were both totally satisfied. My gumbo was over the top. I am so glad we stumbled upon this gem. There are a lot of places to eat in Nederland. Put this at the top of your list.

I first dicovered Richards in my Great Gumbo Quest. I am trying to taste Every Gumbo in the…read moreBeaumont area, and Richards Cafe (a Soul Food Joint a 10-min drive from my ship) was a must-try. I got a HUGE container of a greasy, reddish Gumbo with rice on the side. It was NOT good. WAY too greasy nasty flavor, and soft bones in the Gumbo so you're actually eating slow cooked bones. Fucking GROSS. Worst Gumbo ever, in my book. But whenever I asked my Black crew where they wanted lunch from, Richards was always the go-to. Hell, if they didn't like what was for lunch, they got take-out from Richards. This past weekend, when I bought lunch for my them, they all went for Oxtails at Richards. So I bought 3 orders of Oxtail (only available on weekends), with 2 sides, cornbread and a 32 oz Kool-Aid for them. $90!!! Every customer there (black and white) were there for the Oxtails. So if you're in Beaumont and are looking for good Soul Food, do NOT get the Gumbo, but everything else looks amazing. Get the Oxtails on the weekend, si my advice

On my continued search to find my favorite (not necessarily the best ) avocado toast, I found…read moremyself today at JWilson's Restaurant. As always, the restaurant was packed--which is always a great sign that something good is happening in that kitchen! My waitress, Bailey, was sweet, attentive, and very accommodating, making the experience even more enjoyable. I started with a cup of their famous tomato bisque, and let me just say... I simply cannot come here without ordering it. This heartwarming soup, made with slow-roasted tomatoes, shrimp stock, cream, and Creole seasoning, is rich, comforting, and truly soothing to the soul. It remains my absolute favorite--if you haven't tried it yet, I highly recommend it! For my entrée, I ordered the Avocado Multi-Grain Toast. It's a light and satisfying plate featuring mashed avocado spread over thinly sliced multi-grain bread, served with your choice of sausage or bacon, an egg cooked your way, and a fresh tomato and cucumber salad. Everything on the plate was well-prepared and very tasty. If I could make one small personal tweak, I would love to see this served on a thicker slice of buttery toasted sourdough, maybe with a sprinkle of feta on top. That's just my personal preference and how I enjoy my avocado toast--others may find this version just right as is! The search continues for my perfect avocado toast, but this was a delicious and enjoyable stop along the way. Happy Sunday, and keep sharing those amazing finds on Best Bites!

I make it in…read moreabout every six to eight weeks, and in all that time, I've never had a disappointing meal or experience. On my most recent visit, I sat at the bar and started with a Buffalo Trace bourbon while looking over the menu. The bartenders here are always attentive and welcoming; in fact, the bartender remembered me from previous visits, which speaks volumes about the level of service they provide. Dinner was a ribeye cooked medium-rare with asparagus, and it was exactly what a good steak should be: perfectly cooked, with great flavor, and served hot. The kitchen clearly knows what it's doing. I followed that with their lemon icebox dessert and a lemon drop, both excellent, and finished the evening with a Four Roses Small Batch Select for a nightcap. What really sets J Wilson's apart is the staff's consistency and professionalism. The bartenders, servers, and kitchen team all seem to work together smoothly and take pride in the experience they deliver. Even on a busy night, with spring break crowds and daylight saving time throwing schedules off, the service remained attentive, and the food came out exactly right. If you're looking for a reliable steakhouse in Beaumont with excellent steaks, a strong bourbon selection, and top-notch service, J Wilson's is hard to beat. Five stars. Always a great experience.
