Every time I visit Dallas I drive down 90 minutes and enjoy. (TBH, family in town, but still. I make it my business to stop here.) CRISPY chicken, for real, with fresh baked yeast rolls! And as good as the chicken is, the catfish is even better. I grew up in Florida, catfish U buy we fry everywhere. Jim's Krispy has catfish down to a perfect science. Always juicy, always flaky, always well seasoned crispy fry. Perfection! The fried okra is done right. They just know how to fry anything well. Periodt. (Except maybe the fries? I don't know. I'm too full to eat them). I'm so hard pressed to find fish this good in LA area. Gotta come all the way to Mexia for consistency! To top it all off, the prices are super reasonable! I guess that why the place looks rundown. Not profiting enough to upgrade. That's fine with me! Check my receipt! August 2025.

It was a little creamy, but very good. There was way too much cheese on the enchiladas though. Easy to remedy. My son said the tampiquena was melt in your mouth. My wife ordered scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, crispy hash browns and toast. The eggs were way overcooked and terrible. The toast was just warm bread. The hash browns were a patty (yuk), not what was pictured on the menu (normal hash browns). The chips and warm salsa here are amazing, with one exception. I had to remove as much cilantro as I could with my fork before I could eat it. The salsa tastes like cilantro, and not salsa. It was worth the trouble though. Delicious, once I cleaned out most of the cilantro. I don't know why Mexican restaurants have to abuse cilantro. The one thing that impressed us the most was the service. These folks know how to take care of customers. They were very friendly and attentive. We left a 50% tip! The breakfast knocked my rating down to a four.
