    Twister
    Kim Charron L.

    Stopped here in April and the food was great! Went again last weekend and the Twister is still delicious! They had a new menu and it said the New Corned Beef Hash, I asked if it was homemade and told yes. Unfortunately it was from a can, disappointed by this

    It's worth the stop! I was impressed. It's a little rustic, but cozy and very friendly. Staff was friendly and accommodating, if you want to change something on your order, no problem. Scratch kitchen style. I'd give them a 5, but the gravy was country, not sausage. I know, it's petty, but if that's all I have to complain about, it's pretty good, haha. Sorry, no photos, I was hungry. The dog got some bacon, so here she is. Check them out!

    Was passing through and saw a packed parking lot. On my way back was looking for lunch and decided to try it. I had the Texas Tornado(biscuits/gravy/eggs/bacon/awesomeness/etc). Don't judge. Yes I had breakfast at lunchtime. Friend had a sandwich and fries which were rated good. Staff was attentive and friendly. Sorry was hunger and started to eat before taking pic.

    Quick meal before our big day!

    Glad we picked this local gem during our day trip to Gainesville! Delicious food, friendliest staff, and we would recommend to anyone looking for a solid menu with breakfast served all day! 5/5!

    Our go to breakfast joint after leaving Winstar! They never disappoint. Small country joint w great food and service. Ask for Debbie, the OG of servers. Tell her the Texas Tornado sent ya. Cheers

    The menu and my boyfriend

    The best service in town and their food is so good definitely going back when I'm back in town!!!!

    Best place to get a hot plate of home cooked food in Gainesville, TX! The original owner has unfortunately passed on however his son has stepped up and continued the legacy of this community staple. The servers are probably the kindest you will ever meet and the current owner personally goes around with his contagious spirit of charity and personally gives every child a piece of fresh fruit before they leave. This is one of the few places left where the value of a dollar still goes a long way--and for $10 I promise you will get an "all you can eat" portion size. They don't skimp here and you always feel good about what you got. Trails Inn is known as the best breakfast spot in Texoma but they have other great home cooked meals like chicken fried steak, etc too. Most of the negative reviews I've seen come from wanna-be trendy yelp connoisseurs expecting the Ritz Carleton in a rural Texas town. There's a reason it's always so busy you can't hardly find a parking spot when you come here--because everyone around here knows this is a great place to bring your family and feel better when you leave than when you arrived. There's no attempt here at trying to be fancy enough to be pretentious--it's a down home dive that does an admirable job of transforming simple ingredients into a wholesome menu experience.

    I've love to say that we had dinner or breakfast today at this Cracker Barrel but it came at the…read morevery end of our day and we were back and on our way before they even opened. That's weird, right? Cracker Barrel supports the RV lifestyle and allows RVers to quietly use their parking lots for overnight parking with the polite but unspoken request that if you're having a meal in the area that you have it with them. We'd already had dinner back in Denton but we've hit up plenty of CB meals along the trip so I figure we're okay. The store is clean, the parking lot is tidy and yes, I did pick up two of their candy lemon sticks for the road. I tried to resist but couldn't. We had a decent night sleep here in the campervan and were on our way at around 6:30am before they opened. Next time, breakfast for sure! [Review 416 of 2026 - 725 in Texas - 25599 overall]

While waiting for the waitress, we asked for two cups of coffee along with Sweet'N Low and creamer. The coffee arrived, but the Sweet'N Low and creamer took a very long time to come out. We finally placed our food order, and once again there was a long wait -- this time for my biscuits and gravy. This is our second visit, and unfortunately both times the service has been very poor. The food itself was hot and tasted good, but the servers definitely need more training to get the basics right and improve the overall experience.

I told our drinks came after 40 mins. Then food came one hour later and food was cold. My waitress was constantly going to her favorite table and she does not acknowledge us. I ordered prime rib.

From the moment we arrived, everything felt so intentional, peaceful, and truly special. This place is not just beautiful it's meaningful. Oak Meadow Ranch focuses on conservation and ethical animal care, and what really stood out to me is how they treat their animals with such respect. They do not believe in practices like deveining or declawing, everything is done in a way that prioritizes the animals' well-being, and you can feel that the second you step onto the property. We had the opportunity to experience their exotic animal encounters, and it was absolutely surreal getting up close and personal with these incredible animals in such a safe and respectful environment. You can tell they are genuinely cared for and loved. One of my favorite parts was getting to meet the owner and his daughter. The knowledge they shared, their passion for what they do, and the way they took their time with us, it was beyond impressive. You don't get that kind of personal experience just anywhere. Their customer service was truly top-tier. And let's not forget the dining, The Whitehorse Steakhouse was just as amazing. Such a perfect way to end the night. Hands down a 10/10 experience. If you're looking for something unique, meaningful, and just all around incredible experience, I cannot recommend Oak Meadow Ranch enough!!!!!!!!!!! Loved it so much, we are planning on taking the kids soon.
