Downtown D'Lites Cafe — Restaurant in Kilgore

We moved to Kilgore a year ago and Downtown D'Lites, BY FAR, has been our favorite place to eat here. When we have friends and family that come into town, we are sure to bring them here so they can experience it for themselves! I can honestly say that everything I have gotten on the menu, I have greatly enjoyed- I cannot say that about any other place I've eaten. The atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming. I love reading the Scripture verses on the walls too. You will not find better service anywhere else, everyone is always extremely friendly and accommodating.

I've never walked in a place and felt like someone just wrapped a warm blanket around me after coming in from the cold. It was nice to see how they try to be a blessing to others by recycling used books and sending the profits to a Papua New Guinean to help them with school fees for their family. I really wish this gem of a place was located in...

Nothing special at all. When I was ordering my food I asked for sweet tea. They made a comment that they need to refill it since it was running low. So I waited... and waited... and waited. They never refilled it. So I ended up paying for a drink and only drank water. And the sandwich I got was boring and plain. Nothing I couldn't make at home. It came on normal toast, a plain slice of cheese, and it wasn't even a whole grilled chicken breast. And my friend got a loaded baked potatoes with brisket. They said it tasted like brisket out of a can, and that it was just all microwaved together. However, the location was great and the actual place seemed kind of cool. They people there seemed really nice and helpful. But overall I was...
