A Must-Try Spot for Brunch Lovers!…read more This place quickly became one of my favorite spots for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The atmosphere is upbeat and welcoming--perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a solo meal with great vibes. The food? Fantastic. The menu is creative, fresh, and full of unique flavors that set it apart from your typical brunch fare.

The service was equally impressive--friendly, knowledgeable, and super accommodating. Our server made great suggestions and made sure everything was just right, including pointing out which dishes could be made gluten-free.

You can definitely taste the cinnamon. It's refreshing. - Turkey Guac w/ Cajun Potato Soup (Pick 2) 4.4/5 The sandwich is SO yummy. It's filled with turkey, and the strawberries add a very nice sweetness to the sandwich. The soup is hearty. The sandwich itself though is very very small. - Meemaw's Grits 4.2/5 Very hearty, big juicy pieces of shrimp. Very flavorful with the bacon. - Tuscan Toast 5/5 Such a wonderful balance from the pesto, burrata, and tomato. It's very much worth the money, and is bright in flavor. [RECOMMEND] Free street parking.

My husband ordered the liver and absolutely loved it, which says a lot because it's not easy to find it done right. I had the chicken fried chicken with gravy, and it was delicious, comfort food at its best. Everything was seasoned and spiced to perfection, flavorful without being overwhelming. This is the kind of diner that feels familiar and satisfying, with food that tastes homemade and consistently good. A must-stop if you're traveling through Texarkana and craving classic Southern comfort food.

It has nostalgic decor with a combination of booths and tables. At the height of lunch hour it was very busy but we were promptly seated and served. We happen to be driving through Texarkana at lunchtime and remembered that we had friends from our town, which is an hour away, that rave about it and occasionally for an outing will drive to Texarkana just to eat lunch. I had fried chicken livers, cabbage and the twice baked potato while my husband had the chicken fried chicken. My potato was just average but the fried livers and cabbage were excellent. We both enjoyed our food very much and I appreciated the fact that the tea glasses were large enough that I didn't have to ask for refills. One review complained that there weren't very many chicken livers. I only had about seven livers myself, but they were so huge that I ended up making two meals out of it. We thought the food was very reasonably priced and some of the meals even come with half portions. My husband actually got the half order of the chicken fried chicken and it was still plenty of food.

Still yummy. - Carne Asada Tacos 4.1/5 It was very flavorful. The tortillas ripped though. - Ribs 3.2/5 Very soft ribs, almost like they were boiled first because the bones were almost mushy, very soft. The BBQ sauce was sweet and kind of tangy but not in a good way. The coleslaw lacks a lot of seasoning. The sweet potato fries were soft, not crispy. Free parking in lot

We discovered them about 8 months ago while traveling through, needing some less processed options than typical eatout food, and tried it. Sooo glad we did! So now that we're in the area again we knew this is where we wanted to go. We even ordered extra meals to take with us for tomorrow! Ignore the lower star reviews bc they have nothing to do with quality (and no, the food is not bland)! If you want fancy highly processed and over seasoned gut burning food, don't go here - go to an impersonal restaurant serving commercial processed foods. Mother Kelley's is true homestyle flavors, meaning it's not fancy but it's home cooked comfort food (real ingredients) like my grandmother's was (mid 20th century); you'll love it!

Portions are huge, the staff greet you the moment you walk in, and after a few visits, I swear they'll have to roll me out the door (and I'll be smiling the whole way). The fried pickles and cheese curds? Absolutely incredible--perfectly crispy on the outside and addictive. The pancakes are massive yet light and fluffy, the bacon is perfectly crispy, and my coffee cup never runs dry. Honestly, with all this good food, they were seducing me into doing a happy dance right there at the table. Now, back to the star of the show: that chicken fried steak. It's huge, the meat is melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the coating is seasoned perfectly--crispy enough that even my leftovers stayed crunchy after days in the fridge and a spin in the microwave. Pure comfort food bliss. And let's not forget the biscuits and gravy--heavenly! I got my gravy on the side so I could dip both my biscuit and my chicken fried steak. Best decision ever. Texas Chuck Wagon is comfort food done right, with service that makes you feel like family. I'll be back... again and again (and again).
