Tiny little diner in Thrall we just happened to stumble upon. Sometimes you get lucky. This place from start to finish made us question why we ever moved from Texas. People, staff, guests were all polite and genuine. We missed that very much. The walls remastered with reminders of how connected to the community they are. The food is what you'd expect at a roadside diner in n Texas- good, hearty, simple, delicious. Don't come here if you're in a hurry. That's not what they're about. This place is on my special list. read more

I had a hankering for chicken fried steak and I hoped that this place would hit the spot - and it did not disappoint! The diner is a bit unassuming, there is a gravel parking lot. As soon as we excited our vehicle, we were started by a lamb's bleat which was in the back of a truck in said parking lot so we had figured we were on the right track in our search. We beat the lunch rush at around 1 pm and we're seated promptly. Our food took some time to get to us but, goodness, it was worth it. The steak, the macaroni (get the white one), the mashed potatoes and even the roll was great. We also ordered some slices of pie to go. The chocolate cream pie was my fave but the coconut was also very tasty. If you're ever passing through, and in need of a good country lunch, this is the place to go! read more

The BEST chicken fried steak I've ever had! This little place is just the coolest. The people are so nice and friendly. I kinda felt like I was at a family reunion. Lots of people I didn't know talking about how their family is doin. The owner (I think) came by and chatted with us and told us the story of the place. Just lovely! Oh and by the way, there's a drive thru!! And let me tell you that phone never stopped ringin! Folks around there know what's up! read more

I happened to be in Thrall for a basketball tournament and some time to kill between games. I did a quick search for place to eat. There was a chicken place, convenience store, Mexican and this one. I decided to give this a shot. It looks like an old house right beside the railroad tracks. I couldn't tell if it was open but saw some people coming out so I went in. It was pretty dark in there that day but I was greeted an sat immediately. I looked over the menu and really did have a hard time deciding as the "home-cookin" options all sounded good. I asked my waitress what she liked most and she said it was all pretty good but the special that day was her favorite. It was chopped steak, gravy and sides. I opted for the side salad and green beans. I would go back just for that meal. It was a really good chopped steak, not overdone like many are and the green beans were pretty good too. While I try to limit by carb intake, I wound up eating everything, including the dinner roll! The staff was nice, waitress was friendly and when I am in or near Thrall around eating time I will certainly go back. read more

Went to eat with a friend, dine in was closed it was drive through only. My fiend said there had been a sign up for dine in. When I ordered my food I was asked to circle around the drive through behind all the other cars (3-4 cars) 3 times. It took over 30 minutes to get 2 meals and 1 kids meal. I was so extremely frustrated but remained calm. Staff was trying to be polite. However, this was a terrible experience. read more

Best "real" food my husband and I have had in a long time. Fried okra beyond compare! Portions so large if you leave hungry; it's your own fault. Owner very friendly, we will definitely be back. read more

Good place to take the family for home style cooking. Food is consistently good and service is friendly.

Easy in and out, dirt lot parking just off the highway. Smallish place, cozy. Courtesy you'd expect from small town down south. Heard about the burgers and green beans in glowing terms so we gave it a try. The double cheeseburger was the size of my heart! Tasty. Green beans were more than just beans in water; a little seasoning, a little bacon, very good. The chicken fried chicken on the other hand... under cooked so badly I fed it to my cats. Will give it another go next time we are in the mood for Takeaway. I hear the steak fingers are pretty good. Looking forward to trying that. read more

The plate is $8.95 and comes with iced tea! I've also tried their chicken fried chicken and it was great! My kids love it because they get free ice cream after their meal and the waitress is is always good about eyeing me across the room to make sure it's okay first. My favorite thing about this restaurant is you can call and order ahead and pick it up in a drive up window. read more
