So, I was so excited when I found out Osakas was opening in Texarkana decades later. My daughter loves Osaka's kid fried rice with steak, sushi , yummmm yummmmm sauce, edamame, but most of all, she loves the entertainment! It's fun to see her interact with the chef, just like I did back in the 90's -- haha. But seriously, it really opened her taste buds and now she wants to go every week - she's 7! I recently took her and one of her BFF's after school. They stole all my change because the coin pond kept them busy before the chef was ready . The chefs are hilarious and the service is always fantastic. And most of all, not only is it tasty, it's a super clean restaurant (restrooms included)! It's a fun place to take the kiddos , have a fun date night, or night with your girlfriends! Highly recommend!

The fried rice was just a few old over cooked shrimp and a little beef and chicken and no veggies. The spicy tuna roll tasted funny so I didn't eat it. We moved here from Georgia and are looking for a great Japanese's restaurant. The staff were nice but the food wasn't. I sent them a message about this 3 days ago but no one responded to my message.

We got close and Waze had us make a turn on Harris street and my wife panicked. It did not look like a journey meant for us. I proceeded to our destination and the parking lot was packed. We walked in and were greeted and seated. It was a hot day and it was open air seating. It took our bodies about 15 minutes to adjust, and become comfortable. Our server was Edward aka Bubba. He was very personable, knowledgeable, and efficient. We ordered the fried pickles as an appetizer, and were given a very generous portion. Bubba also added a complimentary crawfish and grits dish that was awesome. My wife ordered the fried catfish , and ordered the blackened Mahi. Both dishes were prepared to perfection, and presented tastefully. We received our order in a very reasonable time. We wanted dessert but they were out. Check this out though, when they do have dessert it is on the house. At Pop's Place the prices are very fair, the portions are over the top, and the service was on point and very hospitable. If you are in Texarkana I highly recommend Pop's Place.

A Must-Try Spot for Brunch Lovers!…read more This place quickly became one of my favorite spots for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The atmosphere is upbeat and welcoming--perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a solo meal with great vibes. The food? Fantastic. The menu is creative, fresh, and full of unique flavors that set it apart from your typical brunch fare. There are tons of thoughtful gluten-free options that actually taste amazing--not just the bare minimum. From inventive egg dishes to seasonal veggie sides, every bite felt intentional and flavorful. The service was equally impressive--friendly, knowledgeable, and super accommodating. Our server made great suggestions and made sure everything was just right, including pointing out which dishes could be made gluten-free. Bottom line: If you're looking for a fun, flavorful, and welcoming place for brunch or lunch, this one is worth every visit. I'll definitely be coming back!

We loved everything! We got chicken noodles, Korean bbq tacos, Korean wings, 5 spice chicken quesadilla, potstickers, and an egg roll. The egg roll reminded me of a Filipino style. Had chicken and I think corn if I'm remembering right. Maybe carrots too. Was good, but definitely deep fried and a little on the heavy side. The wings were really juicy. Sauced up but in a nice way. The potstickers have chicken in them and are fried and crispy. Good 5 spice quesadilla. Great Korean bbq tacos - fresh and light! Would definitely stop here again if we happen to pass through this small town. We were very happy to get fresh made food instead of fast food as we continue on our trek from Indiana to Dallas.

The chicken fried steak was cold and was smothered in what they call gravy that was the consistency of Elmer's glue. The French fries were soggy and the chicken strips were burned.

The staff was friendly and I really wanted to like this place but for the price the food was just a low quality frozen dinner.
