Houston’s Classic Restaurants
"Cleburne Cafeteria exists in the same cinematic universe as your local Luby’s. The cafeteria-style restaurant in West University has been around since the ‘40s, and people have been coming long enough to know most of the staff by name. Instead of serving your typical chocolate milk and fish sticks, they do hefty pieces of cod and mounds of smooth mashed potatoes protecting pools of rich gravy. Somewhere between looking at the timeline of the restaurant's history printed on the wall and tearing into chicken fried steak the size of your face, you’ll get hit by a wave of nostalgia and be grateful for the pause in time." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
