The food here is good. The servers are always kind. Do not remember having a bad experience with any of them. I normally get their coffee as it is great. The dining area inside is also pretty. read more

This place was truly amazing. The food was fantastic (hamburger, onion rings, steak fingers, sweet tea). The steak fingers were perfectly seasoned and so crispy! We are from California and will be back in July for another stop! Service was excellent as well, everyone was so nice. Thank you and see you in late July read more

Highly recommend this stop. Great burgers, great service, and thank you a fair price. A little wait for fresh food. read more

Texas Grill and Cafe - Burgers Near Me - Shepherd, Texas

All around great local restaurant! Staff is always friendly and pleasant to be around. We definitely feel welcome there. Food is quite good and there is a surprising variety of menu offerings. They offer many of the diner standards and some surprising things as well. Alligator bites, anyone? A bison burger? They got it all! Portions are generous and you won't leave hungry! Great desserts and various coffee drinks. Lots of sides to pick from. Daily specials that are very affordable. My favorite is probably the burgers and tots but you really can't go wrong with whatever you order. It can get pretty busy at times but I've never had to wait too long for my food. It's off the highway a few minutes but worth the short detour. read more

Let me tell ya folks. If you're close to Shepard Texas, Texas Grill & Cafe is a must stop. Great cooked when you order Comfort Food. The staff was awesome, it was close to closing time and they was on the spot on and friendly. Hats off to them. Chicken Fried Chicken was cut with your fork tender, Mashed Taters was taters and okra was perfect. Merrie ordered the Grilled Chicken Sammich, must of been good. I didn't get a bite. read more

The food is great. There is plenty of choices from burgers to steaks and everything in between. Breakfast, lunch or dinner, all are great choices. This is a small town cafe, so don't expect fast food quickness. Everything has to be prepared. The owner will sit and talk with the customers like he's known them his whole life. Like I said don't expect to get in and out like you are at fast food. Just sit relax, have a conversation with some sweet tea. read more

Eat here at least 3 times a month. Great food and lots of options. Obsessed with the house fries & ranch. Great sweet tea and there are lots of flavor add in options. Service is great. Friendly people. Cute atmosphere. Cozy little place. read more

Food was great and service was superb. Everything in our order came out great and exactly as we ordered.

Food was good and staff also. A good selection of food and restroom's were clean. They also have pick up window if your in a rush

Want good coffee?! THIS is the place to go!! And yes their food is delicious too but for real - way better than Starbs!

Was extremely impressed with the cleanliness and efficiency of the staff. The food was awesome. I had the loaded hashbrowns with a side of pancakes. It was fantastic. All the party of 3 were impressed with the food and service. Can highly recommend this little place just off the path. read more

This place was AMAZING!! We came in with a big group of people after getting off a church retreat and we decided to grab lunch here. I didn't realize how small the place was from online but they were eager to seat us and were very hospitable!! Loved the people here and makes me miss small town charm that I love!! It's not fast food but it's a great place to stop on a roadtrip and seemingly a favorite for the locals!! Recently they opened on Sundays from what the waitress told me. Our food came out about 40-50 minutes after we ordered which considering our group size was good timing. It was safe to say we were all happy with our food despite some few changes due to limited food supply. They did great trying to accommodate us in any way shape or form! Super affordable and good quantities!! If I have the opportunity I will definitely stop by again!! -Caitlyn with HFB read more

My husband and I stopped here on our way home to Houston. Food and service was great. We cleaned our plates. read more

Texas Grill and Cafe - Chicken fried steak - Burgers Near Me - Shepherd, Texas

5 star. Traveling Houston to Livingston and stopped for breakfast . Make sure expectations are intact--this is not avocado toast/fresh fruit type establishment. They do have classic southern breakfast food. Prices are incredibly affordable...thought I had stepped back in time. Friendly service . Not super fast food delivery but this is not a fast food stop so sit back and enjoy the laid back country ambiance. We would definitely come back if passing through ! read more

I used to love this place. The food is consistently good. The staff is friendly. But...it is hot as hell in the restaurant when temps are high. It's hard to enjoy a meal when you're sweating and uncomfortable. Seems the building is rented and the building owner won't do anything about the poorly-functioning air conditioning system. I think the restaurant owner just shrugs his shoulders about the situation. It's a shame because the food here is the best in the county. You'd think the owner would care enough about his business and his customers to figure out a way to fix the problem. I know longer eat here when temp is 90 or above. Looking forward to Fall. read more

I wanted to like this hometown cafe. It fills a need. Somewhere to stop along a backroad route. GOOD - the tea was good. - service was okay. - bathrooms were clean. BAD -The cook touched everything with un gloves hands. Which I guess sometimes ignorance is bliss but the doors to the kitchen were wide open. From carrying food trays, sprinkling chives, getting into the hamburger bag, etc. - somehow the chicken fried steak was all breading, not much steak. - the burger was dry. -The fries were cold. - the tater tots were so fried that there was no longer an existing filling. They were more like fried grease filled gushers. Will probably pack a lunch the next time we drive through. read more

Been there several times, lunch is pretty good but breakfast my food always comes out cool/cold. It's good just cold! Also things take too long. Long time waiting for food. read more

Good service and good southern food. Hospitality is something you have to experience. It's worth the drive north of Houston for a chicken fried steak. read more

Wanted to try a new place and saw this on the local search. Will definitely come back. Super cute place with friendly staff. Food was delicious. read more

This place is INCREDIBLE. We're traveling so we look for stuff we don't have at home and avoiding chains when possible. Stumbled upon this and was so excited to give it a try and wasn't disappointed.. everything is home cooked, the restaurant itself is very clean and the decorations are very cute. Servers are so friendly, and waiting a few extra minutes for food that is made fresh is 100% worthwhile. I'd definitely go back if we didn't live 20+ hours away! read more

Great place for a small town. Excellent menu choices and specialty coffees for the morning commute. Also has a great menu selection with an exotic meat burger to choose from. read more

This small Texas Diner is the perfect spot for a country meal..fast service, friendly staff. And GREAT food..plus, their prices won't break the wallet..Highly recommend read more

LOVE the food!! Service is always friendly. Great place to eat in or order out. Best sweet tea!!

Forget Starbucks, this place has great blended, iced and hot coffee. I'd rather support small family owned businesses, especially after the plandemic that closed thousands of small family owned and operated businesses. read more

Good food and service. Clean. Friendly people. Menu had many choices. Small, but not crowded.

Place is overall delicious. Tried a lot and like everything except for their Philly cheesesteaks.

Love the food. We eat in because it takes a long time for pick up. We have tried most things on the menu. I like their burgers

Didn't like the ambiance much, but the food tasted good. The place had an unpleasant odor when you enter in.

Good food and good service. I highly recommend. Burgers are great. Ice coffee is really good

Food is just okay at best. It does no good to call ahead for a pickup order. They still won't start your order until you get there to pay. Kind of defeats the purpose of calling ahead especially for a lunch order. The attitude of some of the help lacks a lot to be desired as well. read more

Clean, light and bright ,energetic staff, great burger, fair price ,quick service.... it's everything you want from a restaurant!... this place used to be out on 59 ,but accidentally burned down... this new location has a lot less road noise ... everything is awesome. I told them to add a green chili cheeseburger to the menu read more

Love the food when we eat inside. The service is great and the girls are sweet. The drive thru is something we won't do again. It took 10 minutes for someone to take our order the 38 minutes to get our order. Yesterday. We could've driven to the next town and home in less time. read more

Delicious bison burger and the owner was super friendly and really made the visit enjoyable.

Great little place. Friendly staff and good food! The brisket quesadillos are wonderful and they have some unique fries.
