    Chicken tenders, fried okra and macaroni and cheese
    Cody H.

    Me and my wife stopped here as we were passing through. The service was phenomenal, atmosphere was excellent and the food was 5 stars! It's right off the highway and doesn't look like much from the road but this little cafe is a must if you're around!

    Chicken strips, mashed potatoes, black eyed peas, and cornbread.

    Me and my dad hunt in Corrigan and every time we come out here we make sure to stop at Johnson's cafe. Their food is all homemade and never disappoints. I've tried the hamburger steak and chicken strips and when I tell you they're the best I've ever eaten, they are. The owners make you feel like you're at home. We love this place and enjoy it every time!!! Try it out you won't be disappointed!

    World famous gumbo? This is in small town Texas and claiming to have a famous gumbo? I had to stop…read morehere. I had to see if this is another Texas joint claiming Louisiana roots. One thing many people do not realize is that before Hurricane Katrina, I never had a New Orleans restaurant count the number of seafood items you would get in a platter. I'll save you any further reading: All in all, this is Spanish people's interpretation of French/Cajun/Creole goods. I just couldn't make myself order red beans & rice! Louisiana food is known for flavor. Let's not confuse flavor with spice. This food really had neither. The kitchen staff is Hispanic and 90% of the patrons that stopped through were of Hispanic origin. Not counting myself and my wife, that other 10% were older white folk. To a New Orleans' tongue, this place will disappoint. The staff is really friendly and attentive, so at least the service is good. The food is just average at best & really overpriced. I ordered the 3 items appetizer platter, and that was $19. The regular fish platter (5 pieces of fish with 2 hush puppies & fries) was about $11. My 3 fish, 3 shrimp & 3 chicken tenders platter was about $15 with the same fries and hush puppies. It was not much food, with not much flavor, with a pretty hefty price tag. All in all, if you need average food, stop here. I those to be disappointed trying to eat interpretive soul food (e.g. red beans and rice, gumbo, etc.). If you want cafeteria level spice for the elderly, this place will hit the mark. Great staff and average food with room to eat for about room for at least 40 people. Last bit of information - you avoid a 3.5% credit card fee with cash.

    Established was clean and comfortable. Server was friendly but not very knowledgeable. Food was ok…read more Did not taste homemade but freezer to fryer. My husband ordered Surf n Turf. Sadly it game out looking like a pitiful appetizer plate with 3-4 very small shrimp and the smallest tuftiest steak I've ever seen. We would have sent it back except we were with several other family members and did not want anyone to feel uncomfortable. By not complaining, the establishment did not have a chance to make it right. But I strongly feel that plate should have never left the kitchen, especially for the price they charged $$$$. Our total bill was well over $100 and no one left the table Happy with what they ordered. I truly hope they can improve their food items because Corrigan would support a nice family restaurant.
