Texas Traditions - American restaurant in Gladewater - 607 E Broadway Ave, USA

One of the best lunches I have had. The chicken fried chicken wasn't pounded thin like most places do. It was a normal breast cooked to perfection. Gravy, mashed potatoes & green beans really good. Rolls so tender. Hubby liked his ham omelet but kinda wished he'd gotten chicken fried steak. It was busy and thought we'd be in for a wait but was delivered quickly.

Food is always delicious and service is great. Their homemade ranch is so good. Chicken fried chicken,Chicken fried steak,burgers,breakfast, chef salad, and chicken and dressing are all recommended. They also have real bacon is a plus for me I don't like the heat and serve kind.

Man oh man , I gotta say . This place is the place to be. First time visiting and everyone here knew each other, from staff to guest dinning in. Everyone having a good meal and talking with each other. What a great welcoming feeling. The coffee tasted great and the grilled chicken had a great flavor. Great spot to check out if you’re passing through town.

Man o man!! This was good food!! The chicken fried steak was soft and not chewy, the green beans were soft and delicious (not rubbery) and Lyndsey our server was awesome! We will definitely be going back.

The chicken fried steak was excellent although for the price it was a little on the small side. It comes with two sides and they have a board which shows you which vegetables are available, typically something like sweet potato fries, okra, mixed vegetables, broccoli, cauliflower and you'll have to check the board to see what they have that day. We had an appetizer of chips and salsa which were excellent. You could tell that the chips were homemade. You could also tell that the salsa was homemade and they do let you know it was made in house. The nice thing about it was that the salsa was very chunky and it was lightly salted with the perfect amount of heat but it wasn't too hot. So it was just enough to be a great accompaniment for the chips. My only issue was the price of that appetizer at $9.99 was high. This is because most places the chips are around $3.75 so with the quantity of salsa they made I could see them charging perhaps $5.99 for the entire thing. However the entire place was clean: the table we sat out was obviously clean; the floor was clean also and everybody commented on how good their food was, regardless of what they ordered. So I would recommend visiting this place although you may find in some cases that while the food is priced a little bit higher than you're expecting, it does come hot and it does come tasty and fresh. One last thing: the onion rings are to die for so if you want to pay a little more, they are worth it to get and they will come out just with enough batter, crispy, and the onions will snap off in your mouth: it won't be this long string that's hanging out of your mouth and it will be very crunchy, very tasty, with the right amount of seasoning in the batter to make you just feel like you've died and gone to heaven to bite into that onion ring.

Down home cafe. Service was superb. Spanish omelet was wonderful and full of ingredients. Hashbrowns were cooked to order ( crispy ). Have 0 complaints. Will definitely be back.

If you are going to complain about this place having a smoking section... DO NOT EAT HERE! I Love it, the food is amazing, home-cooked meals and homemade ranch.. it's a family oriented place and the waitresses who have been working there for years are just so loving and friendly! Being a very small town they get a few sketchy employees every now an then but they don't stick around long! It’s a 24 hour restaurant except on Sunday nights. The steaks are the best.. I get them extra seasoned! Amanda is my favorite waitresses but the older ladies also do a magnificent job! This place can get busy really quick! It's small so being patient is a must sometimes. When it is busy I would recommend letting your waitress know everything you need when she's at your table the first couple times because sometimes there might be a time where she physically can't get back to your table do to attending 7 other tables. Don't judge this little place when they are too busy, take the time to go during a not so busy day and I promise the experience will be 100 times better. If you've never worked in the restaurant industry long enough don't leave a nasty review based off of a one time experience. I go to this restaurant at least twice a week. My experience is different everytime. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner all day.

I used to go to Texas tradition in Gilmer my husband and I love their breakfast. now I'm going to the one in Gladewater just started recently it's just as good as the 1 that used to be in Gilmer. Great atmosphere friendly waitresses and great food home cooking.
