DELICIOUS! I actually heard about this place from a Reddit post about places to stop on a road trip…read moreacross Texas and I'm so glad I listened! It's home cooked food, calories-not-monitored, but worth every single bite. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but I knew it was going to be good when we saw the parking lot was overflowing into the grass. Luckily there was still an open table inside and we were welcomed by the sweetest staff and our waitress was just as wonderful. So many things looked good on the menu, but I couldn't resist ending this road trip with another taste of chicken fried steak to compare to Mary's (and they can definitely compete because it was AWESOME)! We also tried the chicken fried chicken (delicious), sweet potato casserole (amazing), Mae's potato casserole (tasty), cheese sticks (good), and the hamburger and fries which was obviously delicious enough that my picky daughter almost finished it - which says a LOT! We were very glad that we'd ordered the "smaller portions" for lunch because it meant we could grab a few of the desserts to go to snack on for our final leg of the road trip and keep enjoying at home. We tried the toffee cake (incredible), peanut butter cake (sinfully good), and the coconut pie (very light and creamy)! We also snagged some items to take home with us from their coolers and I can 100% recommend their pork tamales and summer sausage. If you get the chance to stop here, you won't regret it at all! Delicious, great service, and good portions!

Years ago, the Texas Bucket List TV show is what brought me to Mae's Meat Market. After all these…read moreyears, we are still coming here because the food is so good. We have tried several different burgers, the chicken fried steak, and the tacos. All have been just wonderful. Tonight, I had the steak fingers with grilled vegetables and steamed broccoli. The steak fingers were absolutely huge, and the grilled vegetables and steamed broccoli were just fantastic. Nothing is better than a steak finger dipped in a big old bowl of white homemade gravy! I was only able to eat half, so there was definitely leftovers. And since I was so full, that means dessert had to be to go. Most places now charge seven or eight dollars for a piece of cake. Here, you can still get a piece of cake for four dollars! Heck of a deal! If you're ever in Eastland Texas, I definitely recommend you give this place a try.

WOW! I brought in a group of 9 around 1:30, and they were…read moresupposed to close at 2. I felt bad and made sure to order the buffet for all of us and planned on eating what was already out and leaving quickly to respect their time, but not only did they immediately pop in multiple new items without being asked, but they let us know what they were doing, acted happy and excited to serve us, and noticed that I was cold and turned off the fans. To say that I was absolutely stunned by the customer service is an understatement. I cannot express enough gratitude and surprise by the welcoming atmosphere. Especially because we had family visiting from out of state. They couldn't believe the kindness they experienced. The food was extremely good, which is often a surprise at a buffet. We all made ourselves a bit sick because we didn't want to stop eating it! There were so many choices, even though they were about to close. They didn't let us leave wanting. I would definitely visit again. Prices are great, and I hope they keep up with this unusual level of excellence. It's refreshing to find a place like this with the staff they have.

This is my very first review of a restaurant in my hometown, and I wouldn't want to do any other…read moreplace. China Cafe has been in Eastland for as long as I can remember. I have seen this restaurant and staff been disrespected, taken advantage of, and mocked throughout the years because of the slight language and cultural barrier. Even with all of this going on for years, China Cafe continues to stand against it all and continue to provide amazing food to the community at an unbeatable price. China Cafe has a huge assortment of food that caters to anyone's tastebuds. They have amazing appetizers, entrees, and desserts. They have always been consistent and so caring for their customers. Even when you show up a couple minutes before they close, they are sure to cook up anything fresh if you are craving it. Tonight, they literally brought an entire new tray of banana pudding just for me. In high school, I always came every Friday with my friends for lunch; we always wanted to end our week on a high note and I can not imagine any other place better than China Cafe. Obviously, I can not rave about this place enough! It is so underrated, and as an Asian American myself, I am so impressed that China Cafe has not only survived but thrived with Asian Cuisine in a tiny Texas town regardless of the insistent and horrible discrimination and micro aggressions they face every day. Even though I have tried multiple other Chinese buffet restaurants around the country, nothing has ever beaten China Cafe. There is something about the food that makes it irresistible! Please give this place a chance, and you will not be disappointed!!
