Great spot! Was in town for work and of the 4 days I was in Longview my favorite dinner night was spent here! The locals were very welcoming and friendly read more

This is the second time I have been here. We stopped here for work once for lunch and once for dinner. Great little sports bar atmosphere and fast waitstaff. Had the pork chops the first time and have been thinking about them since then! The second time I had the honey chicken sandwich which is absolutely massive and very juicy and tasty! read more

Was in Longview on business and stopped by Judds as it was touted as a local steakhouse and I wanted to try a Texas steakhouse dinner. I sat at the bar, which was fine...nothing fancy, had a Caesar salad, which was 'blah' and ordered a filet mignon with a side of veggies. Filet was cooked perfectly and just how I ordered (rare) but it lacked flavor and was underwhelming to say the least. Fortunately the veggies were also lacking as it'd be a HUGE disappointment had the veggies outperformed the steak in an establishment noted for steaks. Hopefully it was just an off night...probably wouldn't go back either way as it doesn't have the steakhouse vibe I was after. read more

Boss Lady and I came in for dinner. The joint was jumping due to tons of kids, it was prom night. Bad timing on our part. The service was a bit slow but was worth it after the food was delivered. She had a medium rare steak and fries. I had the salmon over rice. Both were really good but there was too much balsamic sauce on both mains. It all tasted really delicious even with the heavy handed chef. I had a very nice old fashion. Overall we had a very pleasant time. read more

Great service. No wait and best quality food that I had during my quick stay in Longview. I would order this dish again. I paired it with a glass of Malbec. read more

Excellent!!! Service was terrific and so was the food. Hubs and I shared the pork ribeye and added a ceasar. Best ceasar I've had in ages! Didn't really know what to expect from a pork ribeye but it was excellent! The habanero jam had a nice kick but not overpowering. Mom had the chicken strips and said rheynwere great. They were huge! Can't wait to return and try something else! read more

This is my second time Here. The first was better than the last. The food was not fresh as it could be. My sweet potato fries were a mixed of regular fries and looked liked they were off another persons plate. For the price you pay you would thing they would care more about how the food comes out. I was missing the coleslaw it was just shredded cabbage. Just not a happy experience. read more

Found this hidden gem during our travels. We got seated quickly... no wait for lunch on a Tuesday afternoon. TABATHA was our waitress and what a fantastic job. She recommended the French dip when I inquired about it...she did a great job on that recommendation... I loved it. TABATHA had a great personality, beautiful smile, and super efficient. She really took good care of us. Service - 10 stars Food - 10 stars Ambulance- 10 stars Inside was cool with a nice bar. Highly recommend read more

This restaurant is located in the downtown area of the town of Longview in East Texas. It's on the main strip which is pedestrian friendly. Parking is free but can be a bit cramped. You are unlikely to find parking directly in front of the restaurant. However, walk around the corner and you will get a spot. Young university women dressed in black tops and miniskirts were running the place. In the back of the venue, there were chunky long hightop tables that could seat large parties. Up front were more of your standard 4-seaters. The place filled quickly and was a popular spot for dinner or drinks at the bar where a tv with sports was showing. This is not a dumpy diner. This is Longview's attempt at a nice sit down restaurant. The restaurant has a nice menu with a wide selection of food choices. I went for the chicken alfredo and my husband had grits and blackened shrimp. Quantities were substantial and will leave you feeling stuffed if you try to clean your plate. Food was somewhat salty and generic tasting. The garlic bread that came with my pasta was actually a dinner roll cut in half, slathered with butter, heavy handed with garlic salt, and then toasted. Price was nearly $20 per plate. My 4 oz margarita on the rocks was $10!!!! Insanely high prices. read more

Nice menu, Good waiters. Great bartender. She knows how to pour a real drink or cocktail and just as important, knows where the TV remote controls are and how to use them. She will find the game of interest in seconds, and switch channels with a smile. Thank you. Check it out. read more

Have wanted to stop in here for several years and finally did so whilst roaming through downtown. We weren't that hungry so we ordered a salad and side of fries. Food was excellent as was the service. The atmosphere, however, is worth crowing about: extremely sexy, dark, tasteful decor, warm, and the exposed brick highlighted the character of the venue. The selection of wine was above average with a nice Stag's Leap Cap catching my eye (I don't drink a lot of white). The bourbon and single malt whisky choices were comprehensive and surprising for this "small" town. I wasn't drinking today. The beer selection was disappointing but what I would expect in Longview. I call it a collection largely comprised of rodeo or NASCAR beer, the kind of beer a guy who frequently uses the term "cold beer" when speaking of his choice of beverage to drink with his well-done steak. I'll be back and will sit at the bar. Great work, Judd!! read more

Hands down some of the best chicken strips I've ever had. Seasoned and cooked perfectly!! Don't let the coloring fool you, these were yummy! I'm a huge fan of Ranch and theirs is in my top 5 for restaurants I've been to. They've take a simple item and made it so much better than you could ask for. I need to go back for these soon. Menu options are endless, so you're bound to find something that fits your taste. Also, if you enjoy wines/spirits, they do have a full bar. Judd's is doing it right with an always clean place, friendly staff, and delicious food. read more

Great food selection, the ambiance was perfect and the service was attentive. We'll be back when we're in town.

Walked in and was greeted immediately by a friendly hostess. We sat and the waitress was extremely attentive and quick. The food was very delicious and we enjoyed the spacious ceilings and decor. We will definitely be back. read more

First visit and I will give it another chance. I had the chicken and waffles. The pieces of chicken was extremely small and very very hard & dry. The waffles were good. Next time I'll stay away from anything chicken and try a burger. Service and ambiance were great. read more

Well, I tried to give them another shot; however, they continued to let me down. I will say the pork tasted great, but the sweet potatoes smelled and tasted like sweaty week-old gym socks. Stay far away from their sweet potatoes as they are not sweet and very sour. At the end of our meal, we asked for the check. We watched the waitress walk out front and sit on her phone smoking. We thought, wow, that was really bold of her..... Still lousy food and still horrible service; I will say it was less crowded. read more

Went here for dinner for a friend's birthday. They were out of menu items. They messed up a few orders. The kitchen was crazy slow. Yes I realize we had a large party but it was just not up to the hype I have heard about this place. Not sure if I will be back again. read more

Ordered sirloin steak, a scotch, and soup. I just wasted $60 on Campbell's soup, a hockey puck, and a pre-measured drink. The sirloin was pan fried into oblivion, and served with one sad small side, no bread, nothing. $13 for a drink is high-end price for low end value. The ingredients are poorly sourced. I've seriously had better prepared and quality food at Applebee's. Shall not be returning to this pretentious place, nor should you go. read more

Really expensive for the value and quality of food/drinks being served. Decent spot for downtown Longview but really isn't worth the money unless you're willing to spend read more

Awesome atmosphere. The waitress and bartenders are awesome and very attentive to your needs . They never let your drunk glass go empty

Great place to grab dinner when you're downtown. The food was great, the service was great, and they treated our granddaughter as a queen.

It's nice to watch music outside downtown then walk over to Judds for a beer and meal. It's clean, fast service, and reasonably priced.

Fabulous spot in downtown Longview Texas. Sat at the bar and received prompt and friendly service from Chelsea. Excellent and personable. You already know I got a Jameson on the rocks. I also ordered some of the Gouda soup and the Strawberry salad with chicken. Amazing is all I have to say. Right on Longview! read more

The location is great, could be a great place, food is basic, not been a hit with the mixed drinks, so when we go we stick with beer. If I'm going to hang downtown, I'd just rather go to another little place around the corner. We tend to like places with a variety of wait and bar staff. read more

It was a nice evening, so we sat outside! traveling with pups Sometimes it's challenging! Just 4 tables outside, but it was perfect for us. Our server was kind and appropriately attentive. I ordered the orange and honey salmon, and he had Tuscan seafood pasta. Both were incredible. I am not one who usually cleans my plate, but I sure did! I am hopeful the recipes I find online are half as good. Hubby said the pasta could have used more spice. Creme brule for desert was good, too. The price point was average. Cannot speak about the decor, bar or anything inside but we had a wonderful meal! read more

Such a gem! Didn't think we'd find excellent food, service, drinks, and environment in Longview.

Excellent food and the service is spot on!! Thank you Natasha for a great experience!!

Just had a really disappointing visit today! One order completely wrong, another burnt, and the last over done. The service started off fine but ended with all glasses empty. We then ha to way for the check while the server visited with another table. The restaurant wasn't busy and plenty of servers. Just a really poor experience! read more

Enjoyed lunch today with family! First time here but will not be the last as atmosphere, service and food was top notch. I had the club sandwich which was perfection and huge, along with several bites of black and blu salad which again was delicious. Started with fried pickles which were the best I've ever eaten. McKenzie provided exceptional service and a huge shout out to the Chef for making a stop at the table! Just a fantastic lunch. read more

I really liked this place - good food, nice atmosphere, and a professional waitstaff that never stopped moving including the owner who was helping bus tables and seating the guests. I was even more impressed with the selection of whisky which rivaled many bars in Houston and priced reasonably. Next time I am in town I am definitely stopping by here! read more

What a great experience. I love this place. The restaurant has a feel all of its own with its very cool lighting to the photos of old downtown Longview on display. The food is delicious and the service has been great. My favorite is the Pork Ribeye. I have not eaten everything in the menu but what I tried has all been above expectation! read more

We just left Judds. We wanted to go out for our anniversary. We have always enjoyed this restaurant- the food, the service and the atmosphere. Judds has been one of our favorite places for years. It wasn't terribly busy when we got there. We walked in and a hostess seated us at a table quickly but that was it. For the next 20+ minutes we waited. It is like we were invisible. Multiple staff members walked right past us like we weren't even there. No one spoke to us. No one even offered to take a drink order. The waitress literally stood at the end of the bar scrolling on her phone. We finally just gave up. We went to the hostess and told her we were leaving because no one had even come to our table or acknowledged we were there. She seems surprised but she was standing mere feet from us the entire time... I cannot put into words how disappointed we are. And I honestly doubt we will ever go back. So disappointed. read more

Had the beef and blue cheese flatbread with greens and balsamic drizzle and loved it Chef Ronald has always been creative with savory and sweets. read more

I went on my lunch break. Food was good and hot. The Bartender and chef was really nice and friendly. Nice atmosphere, but if there was a few more people I think they would have a problem hearing each other. There is an outside option if noise is an issue. I would definitely go back. If you are looking for a cheap meal this is not the place, but the food was really good. read more

Here on a wedding. The service is amazing! Judd himself gets behind the bar and will help the staff out when it's busy--not because they are lacking but because he cares and we all get the fastest service possible. I highly recommend this place, if you're ever in the area stop and say hello! read more

Fun "friends type" gathering place with really good food, and drinks! Friendly service. The only negative is "noise" at peak times, crowded tables that need more comfortable chairs. read more

Great menu, I had the cheese balls and they were crunchy on the outside and soft and cheesy in the middle. I'll come back and keep trying new items. Much better experience than up on restaurant town on thenLoop, all those chain restaurants offer the same supermarket quality food and charge triple and blame it on Covid read more
