    Old fashion
    D. Scott C.

    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.

    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.

    French dip

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Might not be right but Tomato or Red Pepper and Gouda soup.

    See all

    Don't waste your time, atmosphere seems nice...but it's loud, messy, and overall uninviting. Find another joint and spend your money there!

    Really good vegetarian options. I have no words for the espresso martini. Sheer bliss. Going to check out desserts next time!
