My mom and I got the shrimp and grits! Chefs kiss! It was amazing! My husband kept trying to steal bites! My husband got the Korean tacos, they were also tasty. He just said a little too greasy.

We have lived in Livingston a year and finally got around to having dinner at Katie's! The food…read moreexceeded our expectations and so did the service. We started with an old fashioned, ginger beer, truffle parmesan fries and brisket bombs. The drinks and appetizer were outstanding! Everyone needs to try their brisket bombs!! They melt in your mouth. Very generous portion of truffle Parmesan fries that we took home and enjoyed the next day! My husband's steak was well marbled and cooked to perfection. He was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the steak. Super tender and well seasoned! Salmon was fresh with a yummy sauce. For dessert we had creme brûlée. It was some of the best and we order it everywhere we go. You can't go wrong with Katie's! Highly recommend.

Rating purely based on the cookies brought home to me. These cookies were surprisingly…read morescrumptious! They are dense and chewy cookies (my favorite type!) and also thick. :D Biscoff cookie (4.5/5)-- this one made me a fan! The cookie was sweet with pockets of Biscoff spread inside. Great for any Biscoff lover! The quality control isn't the best though, as the second time I had the cookie, it was dry and crumbly. If the cookie is usually dry like that, it would be more of a 3/5. I would risk another try though! Cookies and cream (4/5)-- this one was a good cookie too, capturing all the essence of an Oreo flavor. It didn't stand out in uniqueness but it was yummy :) this one was a little harder and crumblier than the Biscoff cookie, but now I wonder if it was just old or dried out... Pistachio brittle/toffee cookie (3/5)-- wasn't a fan of this one, as the taste was a bit off (either a little bitter or maybe artificial tasting?) and the brittle chunks were super hard, super sweet , and super sticky (like butterfinger filling but less melty!). The chunks were tasty (and veryyy sweet), but I had to pick them out and eat the separately since it didn't pair well with the cookie texture for me. MT says the service has always been nice, and they seemed really happy when he bought whole load of cookies, hehe~ Katie's Cafe is one of the go-to spots for his lunches out there!

Cafe in the Pines is open for breakfast and lunch until 2pm and fish buffet on Thursday evening. The buffet is "until we run out." So glad we found it in time. The food was the closest to my mama's good home cooking that I've had since she went into a nursing home. So yummy. We had melt in your mouth smothered pork loin, chicken & dumplings, greens, navy beans, corn. And, the salad with nice big bowl had crisp lettuce leaves, cucumbers, boiled eggs, tomatoes and more. And ... a yeast roll. When we finished, a daughter asked,"would you like a piece of cake?" It was chocolate. :-) The glass of iced tea was tall. I told my husband, "This tastes like it was made with love." Indeed, I heard a farewell "Have a blessed day." As soon as I got a good signal, I phoned a friend who travels these Deep East Texas roads to rave about this amazing find. I look forward to returning as we travel.

I could tell it was mostly locals there and I actually set at a large table with one. Everyone was very welcoming. Even though I don't look like a small-town Texan and have a lot of Tats etc I felt very comfortable. It's not fancy but the food is where it shines. It may take a while but that's because they make everything fresh to order. You can enjoy some chats with the locals while you wait. I had a small chicken fried steak and eggs breakfast and a coffee. The CFS is hand-breaded and the perfect size for breakfast. I got the eggs over easy and they were the best fried eggs I have had in years. Kudos to the chef because everything was cooked perfectly. My coffee cup was never even close to empty since the service was so good. If you are in the area or even close I would make a point to stop here. Wow, what an amazing down-home place and meal.

The food here is exactly what you want it to be--hot, fresh, flavorful, and served in portions that definitely won't leave you hungry. The standout for me? The liquid butter. If you know, you know. You can pour that golden magic over the toast, the pancakes, the biscuits--basically anything that'll hold it--and it takes everything to the next level. It's the kind of simple, old-school touch that makes a meal unforgettable. Whether you're stopping in for breakfast, grabbing a plate lunch, or just craving some true diner comfort, Mom's never misses. Great people, great food, and great prices. Absolutely a Lufkin gem--and we'll keep coming back!
