“ This is a nice restaurant in Hope Arkansas. Staff was very friendly, but i ordered the liver and onions after the waitress told me the cook knew how to prepare it properly. Well it was like shoe leather. The other three people in my party said their meals were ok. I would probably give them another try and stay away from the liver and onions. 7/10 ”
“ We go to Texas and Louisiana about every three months and our go-to restaurant in Texarkana closed so we were on a search for a new stopping place. Found Sheba's and the all day breakfast was a plus. On our last trip we stopped by for breakfast and was not disappointed. Bacon, eggs and pancakes were very good. On our way back home a few days later we stopped by for dinner. The chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and carrots were very good. My wife had the soup and sandwich special. She ordered broccoli and cheese soup and a club sandwich. She did not fare as well as I did. The soup had way, way too much garlic and she could not eat it and the "club" sandwich was a slice of ham, a slice of cheese with lettuce and tomato. We asked the waitress if we could have a sample of the gumbo to try but was told that they do not do samples. She ate the sandwich and called it quits. As others stated the child running around hollering was a major distraction. The jury is still out on whether we go back. ”
“ Ohm I told my husband I'd be willing to drive there at least 1 time a week just for lunch it would be a 4 hr. round trip. Food was not pre-made. We live in Shreveport area and we dont have many places like this. The servers were very nice and pleasant. It was a homey type environment. Building is very dated and if you judged in on that you may pass by but it's worth the time to stop if you want a good meal. I only wish I could have eaten more. I had ch fried st my husband had west. Odette and the rest of my steak. ”
“ Beef liver & onions was good. Grilled pork chops were good. It would be nice if you could get a plate with choice of 1 or 2. Little boy running around the restaurant being loud was somewhat annoying. Our server was very attentive to our needs. ”
