The best Asian food in Idabel. Now hold on.....that may not sound like much in such a small town…read more However, this locally owned (Vietnamese owned) restaurant has been around for decades and everything they serve is so good and includes some pretty good American dishes as well; including delicious steaks. I love to get the Cajun chicken pasta with the mushrooms in a creamy sauce. I like to get it spicy. So very good. My favorites though are the beef pho (PERFECT), the Kung Pao Chicken, Mongolian Beef and the scrumptious dumplings. Ok, so try ordering just six of those dumplings and see how that works out for ya! Just order a dozen, ok? They are served piping hot and are accompanied by a delicious homemade dipping sauce. The Mongolian Beef includes many delicious vegetables and the large portion is served with an equally large portion of fried rice. The service is attentive and friendly. They truly care that you enjoy the food. The interior is simply decorated. However, there are numerous lovely paintings that were painted by the restaurant owner. Such a nice touch! I have been going to this restaurant for years when passing through Idabel. Prior to COVID, AJ's had a buffet set up in addition to the menu items. I enjoyed the buffet and miss that sometimes. There were numerous Asian and American dishes as well as a salad bar and AWESOME bread pudding. However, the absence of the buffet does not take away from the experience. It's just something I personally miss. In fact, I am pretty certain they still have the bread pudding on the menu. Get that too! Of course, since I am a regular, I will certainly be back!

This is the only pho place I know of in town. The Pho was not bad. Really friendly, good people.read more

Ok, I used to love Golden Corral. The nostalgia has crashed and burned with this most recent visit…read more $22 for my meal, and they hardly have anything that I like or even tolerate (including desserts) the labels are all switched around including a strawberry cheesecake label (which I would absolutely die for strawberry cheesecake) that had no cheesecake under it, leaving me incredibly disappointed and feeling cheated. The new atmosphere just feels sterile and boring, the service is cheerful, but our server was talking to me as if I was a child because I forgot to take my lid off when she went to get my refill. Overall, nit-picky things, I think someone with a different palate than mine can have a great time here, but for the price, I am thoroughly disappointed. So it gets a mediocre rating from me.

This is my new favorite in Texarkana. I have heard all kinds of hype about this place and it…read moredeserves ALL of the hype, indeed! I just love what they did with the former Genghis Grill location. It is really amazing to be able to see your food being cooked for all to see. Nothing to hide here! I ordered the lamb curry, my husband ordered the butter chicken and we split the garlic naan and the vegetable biryani. Everything was served piping hot and the food was exceptional. I really could go on and on. I guess that is our job as Yelpers, right! The restaurant had a very nice ambiance. The owners take your order, cook and serve your food. It appears they have another cook who works in the kitchen along with one of the owners. There is also a bar with bar stools to enjoy adult beverages and a stage that is used for receptions and events. I took some pictures of a very beautiful wooden cabinet full of hammered brass and silver serving pieces. I was told by the owner that the hammered brass bowls are used to serve their curries. You can see the vessels in the photographs as well filled with delcious curries. Please note: naan is served with many, if not all of the entrees. I did not realize that (probably because I did not read the menu closely) and I ordered garlic naan separately and we ended up with a lot of food leftover. My husband and I could share an entree here easily. I was not hating bringing delicious leftovers back home and we will enjoy those this evening.

5 Stars for the previous owners and the beloved original restaurant "New China"....Sometime in 2025…read morethey retired and sold "New China"to a different owner. The restaurant is now "China Buffet". I am so sad. The previous owners will forever have a place in my heart. Their Chinese food at New China was the absolute best...that I will miss! Thank you "New China" for the decades of excellent food and service! You can never be replaced! I'm just happy to have the memories!

I been here 5 times here and had the most luck here, except this last visit as I got slaughtered…read more One thing I do like going here is I tend to get a suite on the weekend, but unfortunately they do not stock the drinks up like they do at Choctaw Durant. They used to do it here, but not anymore. The shower is amazing as I can be in there for 30 minutes, but beware I made a mess on one of the visit as the massage sprayer is quite powerful. I have stayed in their regular rooms and it is alright and I have accidentally booked a smoking room on the west side. Food I have eaten at all of their restaurants except for Chili's now. They have a quick bite to eat like the Cove, a sports bar dining which was not too bad, food was reasonable priced, but we got our food comped and they have the fancy steak house which I enjoy going to as well which the prices are not too bad. We usually spend around 100 dollars there. Gaming They usually keep most of their machines, but sometimes they do change the machine. You can visit the gas station as well and even though it is smaller and a couple of them, they have a great selection of bingo games and have some games that are not within the main casino floor. I am sure my wife would have gone with me to check it out. I did hit my highest jackpot and found out I can get a check. So for now on any jackpot over $2400 I request a check. I had a lot of luck here, but two of my last visits I did not hit a jackpot which is okay. I think this year I will be down big at that casino. Overall, I enjoy going to this casino as it is small and relaxing. I also like going to Paris, TX and play Pokemon and walking around the park to play. But do not count me in on playing in the summer.

First time visiting this location. Staff is excellent! Everyone was patient, helpful and friendly…read morefrom the moment we drove up. From free valet service to our last stop at the Cashier was top notch. We lunched at Chili's, then later dinner, at The River Restaurant. Food at both restaurants were very good and portions plenty enough to share. Mornings: breakfast is served at The River Restaurant. Portions are ample but lighter than the lunch and dinner portions. So, be sure to order those pancakes if you have a bigger appetite. This casino is located in Oklahoma -- Drinks are not complimentary with play; however, I noted 2 self serve beverage centers. Both were very clean & orderly at all times, as were the bathrooms. Hotel is also very clean and well appointed. I do advise taking a charging cube to charge your devices. There is a whole lot more to this casino/hotel than we had time to explore. This establishment offers motorized scooters to those who are in need of one. Another thing we saw as we were leaving the casino is what appears to beautiful RV park just south of the Casino. This wraps up all I have to share... Happy travels and may Lady Luck always be in your favor!
