    Chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and broccoli.

    Wife loved the chicken fried steak. The had to be given the recipe for a "Cosmo" but once she had it the Cosmo was excellent.

    Outlaw BBQ Burger, with house made BBQ sauce. Crispy onions and smoked Gouda cheese. Sweet Potato fries! Must get...

    Great place to have a decently priced meal, while you're gaming. The Staff is friendly and welcoming, the food is fresh even close to midnight.

    Boudin balls. Yummy!

    We go to Coushatta every year around this time and Terrace Cafe is where we always eat. The dinner is always wonderful. The breakfast is hit or miss. This most recent visit was a little disappointing because the breakfast was a bit too greasy. The pancakes were raw and the biscuits were dry. But, overall they have really good food.

    Crawfish Etoufee- yummy

    Honestly I was not impressed. I've been here a few times before to have breakfast and it wasn't great but I was starving and so excited to have Cajun considering I was in Louisiana, it was far from good. Rice was cold and hard as a rock. The etouffee was so fishy and all the wrong flavors. I don't recommend this dish. My tea was empty and never once did our server check on us or ask if we needed drink refills. The restaurant wasn't busy ( 5 tables maybe - at least 5 servers ) so I would think service would be up to par. Over all needs improvement in all areas. Until then I won't eat there again.

    Home style food with no complaints!! Service is usually pretty good. The gumbo and hamburger steak are my favorite! Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs are a good way to start your day as well.

    Chicken fried steak, mashed, corn & roll.  Good food!

    Wow. Great service & great food. Prices were moderate but we are in a casino so that's expected. Waitress was attentive & fast. Food was plentiful & delicious. Great job overall, thank you Terrace Cafe!

    This restaurant was such a breath of fresh air. It has a real small-town feel--one of those places…read morewhere everyone seems to know everyone, and it's honestly adorable. It reminded me of the kind of restaurants I grew up with as a kid in a small town. Just a simple, quaint little spot on the side of the freeway. We've been there twice now, and the food is great. We pass it all the time on the way to Coushatta in Kinder, and now we're kicking ourselves for not stopping in sooner. The vibe, the people, the food--everything just feels right. The whole place feels like it's straight out of Mayberry (for the younger folks, ask someone older and they'll tell you). My wife and I love to people-watch, and I swear we saw the pastor chatting with parishioners, the mayor and his wife shaking hands with folks, neighbors catching up on the latest gossip, and the PTA crew laughing in the corner. It was all just too perfect. The food is cooked the way it used to be in the old days, and it really brings back memories. Don't get me wrong--the restaurant itself is a normal, modern stand-alone building--but the feel inside, with the vibe from the waitresses, the customers, and the food, just exudes this wonderful old-time country charm. Allyssa was our waitress the last two times we went, and she's absolutely adorable. She's got the sweetest country twang and a natural charm that makes you feel right at home. She's very attentive, too. We had the fried pickles, the catfish dinner, and the fried shrimp. The iced tea is always fresh. They close at 2 on Sundays, so get there early for the freshest food. I'm no food critic, so I can't break down all the flavors for you--but I can tell you everything was good, and we left with big smiles on our faces. We'll definitely be back.

    The server we had was rude. Just because she screwed up and gave my mom the wrong kind of tea she…read morewanted, the server got mad, she brought us our ticket before we were even half way done with our meal, and she was mad faced the rest of the meal. This is not appropriate!

Not too much. Not too little. Just the right amount of burger. Very flavorful and very tasty. The onion rings were pretty delicious as well! I'll definitely be back to this place. Food - 5 Service - 4.5 Atmosphere - 4 tables were dirty and not wiped down Giving an overall 4 but it's really a 4.5.

I don't think it's from the lack of effort it's just the supply chain has changed and the quailty of the original ingredients have changed and that just the cold hard truth. This is a good burger, not a great burger in my opinion the protocol here is order what you want and accept what they sit on the counter when they call your name - today's old fashion cheese burger was pretty good and very fresh but one burger can't meet everyone's expectations, for me there is too much mustard I want some but today it was over powering, I'd sub grilled onions for raw and luckily I definitely remembered to ask for pickles otherwise you don't get any. If you want a burger where the meat is the main ingredient order a double even then it's not overwhelming. Good Onion Rings (yes) and plenty of them a large order can feed at least three hungry people. They are served hot right from the grease so add salt and pat them dry unless you like the added grease they are probably the best you'll find eating out. Now what the same as it was from years gone by, very very reasonable prices, an extremely friendly staff I love they will carry on a conversation with the customers, if you frequent this place they will remember you and maybe ask how your mom and dad are doing that's not just great customer service that's amazing hometown service and that a very rare amenity today - yeah it's changed a little or maybe it's just that I have, so if they keep serving them burgers when I'm in the area I'll keep buying them...
