Lil-Tex Restaurant, Copperas Cove

Breakfast, lunch or dinner it's always a good choice. They have it all and if you don't see it just ask. The prices are very reasonable! For a little more than I would spend for a family of 4 to eat at a fast food restaurant, I can have a fresh hot meal, be waited on and have enough for leftovers.

Great chicken fried steak.Wonderful German waitress. Gorgeous cashier.What else could you want?

I am surprised at the complaints about the prices at this restaurant, so I had to write a review. I dont really go here often, but they are ok. The reason I would go there is because they are affordable. If you consider $5-$10 for a full meal expensive I am shocked. It's worth a try! Guess you cant go wrong with burgers, enchiladas, salads, chili, soup, corn bread, sandwiches and fries....

Depends on what you get I think. First time we went we had the cat fish dinner as it was during Lent, I didn't think it was all that great. Husband and I went back several weeks later and both got the chicken fried steak, I thought it was pretty good and our waitress was really nice. One thing I really didn't understand was she told us we weren't allowed to take leftovers. Thought that was weird. We'll probably go back again but not very often.

I've been there a few times in the past, because my friend loves to eat there. The food is OK, but a bit overpriced. The last time I was there I swore I'd never go back. I'd ordered one of the lunch specials that came with 2 sides of my choice. One of the sides I ordered was peach cobbler. The waitress brought all our food, except the cobbler. I asked her to bring that, too. She flatly refused, saying I had to eat every bite of my food before I could have desert. I thought she was kidding, but it turns out she wasn't. She kept refusing to bring it. I'm in my 50's and nobody has a right to tell me I can't have my desert along with my lunch, much less a waitress half my age at a restaurant where I'm paying for my food! I finally told her to bring it or we'd leave and tell the manager why we didn't eat the food or intend on paying the bill. She finally brought my peach cobbler, very grudgingly. Is that how waitresses are supposed to treat paying customers?

I have to agree with the overpriced, average food. The first time we went there I was excited, thinking I'd found a good spot for a coffee shop and cheap food. I hadn't expected much in the quality of food (by the atmosphere), but I'd expected it to be MUCH cheaper. We tried it one more time, hoping it was just a bad first experience, but nope. Same thing. And the service was just OK.

On several occassions my company has ordered from Lil-Tex and were not blown away with the food. It was okay, and we did order from them again. Normaly, most people here order the marinated chicken salad, which is quite good. However, on more than one occassion, I've noted that people have complained on the freshness and the quantity for the price. We'll likely order from them again, but it is not a restraunt I would recommend to someone looking for a good meal.

I ate dinner here once and breakfast here once. I was not impressed either time. The chicken fried steak was tough and the mashed potatoes were instant. The scrambled eggs were good, but the biscuits and gravy were lacking. The atmosphere was old diner and not very clean.

Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner all the same..Friendly atmosphere, really nice people.... love going there
