Sheba’s Family Restaurant

Really, really good food!!! The ribs are melt in your mouth, great onion rings, fabulous hamburgers… the gumbo was exquisite… the raspberry tea was perfect… I definitely recommend stopping here :)

Great food! My husband had chili that he thought was wonderful and I had lemon chicken with sweet potato and fried okra. Very nice meal and fast.

Good food!!! Great service! Great people!
Went there last June & again last week while visiting from California. Great place!

I got the $ 10 brisket burger and I didn’t even finish it. Took a few bites and the brisket was chewy and the coleslaw tasted like it was a week old, the fries where even cold. Wife got the smothered chicken and said it has a funky taste. I travel a lot of places and eat out a lot and like whole in the wall places but this place has to be in the top 10 worst I’ve visited. I payed for the entire meal and told them afterwords my thoughts. $ 40 down the drain so skip this place, if you can mess up a hamburger then the rest of the menu has to reflect that.

We’re traveling from Texas to Michigan and were looking for a good dinner. We found it! I had the vegetable beef soup and coconut meringue pie. Great taste on both and my husband was raving about the peach cobbler. I just wish we lived closer.

I have to say, this was one of the best meals we’ve had on this 5,000 mile odyssey. (Cincinnati to the Big Bend via Hill Country and home again.) The pinto beans beat anything we had in Texas. The grilled vegetables were to die for: not a bit greasy and perfectly flavored. (I asked how they were seasoned and was told it’s a secret!) It is easy to eat healthy here… or not, if that’s your druthers! Besides the predictable country cookin’ favorites and all-​day breakfast, there are a few Indian specialties. (!) Service is excellent, dining room is charming.
A previous poster called this a «greasy spoon,» and I have to disagree. I have been in plenty of greasy spoons in my day and this is NOT one. «Greasy spoon» is not a synonym for old-​fashioned American diner or casual eatery; the term implies a lack of cleanliness and poor quality, as well 100% reliance on a grill top or deep fryer. That is not the case here. It is clean and many items are actually cooked (not just heated up) with care.
I travel w a crabby old man who likes nothing better than bland, familiar, American food and a vegetarian husband who eschews fat and goes for anything spicy or ethnic. It can be a see-​saw act, believe me! Both were happy here, one with his roast beef Manhattan, the other w pintos, grilled veggies and sweet potatoes. I tucked in to a yummy BBQ brisket sandwich with slaw and chips.
We drive to Texas every year and will make it a point to stop here from now on. I have to try the hummingbird cake!

Traveling from San Antonio to Memphis. Stopped in Hope to spend nite. We like to eat local. We both enjoyed Shebas. I had the chicken fried steak sandwich that was excellent. My husband had fried catfish and shrimp with spicy chicken gumbo. There was no chicken in the gumbo but flavor was good. Catfish and hush puppies were over cooked but catfish was fresh. Shrimp was good.

Really should put this place in the «Greasy Spoon» category. No bad, just average. The coconut cream pie was above average.

Very VERY good food. Award winning catfish– batter was so good and tasty that I passed in the tartar sauce. The filet was a thick cut and juicy. Family got chicken fried steak– WHOA! Delicious. Worth stopping.

The service was great with a polite and prompt wait staff, but the food was mediocre at best. I struggle to find healthy meals when traveling for work in rural Arkansas and thought I had found such a place in Hope. I ordered grilled chicken with steamed veggies and green beans [way to go me!]. But alas, both of my sides were served in bowls and were basically swimming in melted butter [facepalm]. If you want good heart attack food, this is your spot. If you want healthy choices, try somewhere else.

This restaurant was suggested to us by the hotel we were staying out. I will say i was hesitant at first from just the outside of the building BUT BOY was i WRONG. Wow the foodwas amazing as was the service. It’s so nice to be treated so kindly when eating out of town. A+++

Road trip from South Carolina, and on our way back home to Texas we discovered this little down home diner. If your a «local» your coffee mug is waiting on the shelf, giving a down home feel. At our table we enjoyed homemade vegetable soup, meatloaf sandwich, catfish, and a green chili burger that was all great. Extremely friendly service, and «to die for» hummingbird cake. Yummy!

Not good food, home cooking? After starting a new job in hope a month ago I’ve tried a lot of the eating establishments in Hope and have went back to everyone of them, well tonight I tried Sheba’s and I have found the one that I won’t be back to, I went with the family, 5 of us, and there wasn’t a single thing home made. I got a salad and the vegetables in it were even bagged & precut. Out of the bag chicken fried steak and not so hand battered chicken strips, all the fries vegetables were frozen and bagged crinkle cut fries. If you like frozen processed food then this is the place for you! If you want good food anywhere else in Hope is better!

While visiting a client this week in Hope I asked for REAL southern cooking. What a treat! Chicken fried steak with white gravy, fried green tomatoes and black eyed peas. So glad we had the serious business done in the morning because everyone fell asleep in their corners after lunch… could it have been the peach cobbler and coconut pie. Highly recommend for great food and Southern hospitality.

I went on a road trip with my kids for my granddaughter’s 16^th birthday. We are from Texas and were heading to Tennessee. Had been driving all day and stopped at Sheba’s for a needed break and something to eat. I will be totally honest I do not even remember eating or what I ate. I took off to the car while the kids finished eating and left my phone on the table. My granddaughter had just upgraded her phone and gave me her Android phone. When we got to Memphis and discovered it missing we called the phone and someone at the restaurant answered. I asked them if they would mail to me and to my surprise my phone arrived the next day after we arrived home. I would recommend this place just for their honesty. Most places these days will not return due to postage. Thanks to everyone there. Have a thumbs up from me.

All was okay until I saw one of the cooks spill a tray of unwrapped frozen meat patties on the floor and then picked up the patties and put them back I the freezer. At that point I lost my appetite.

Great and friendly staff but if you like process food this is a place to eat. I ordered the chicken fried steak and you could tell that it came out of a bag. I guess nothing we ate was made from scratch!:(

Good food. We had hamburger steak, smothered chicken, fried catfish and BLT with sides. squash casserole is good, purple hull peas, green beans and nice rolls. Southern style food was good for small town with few options.

Great family restaurant. Meatloaf was very good. Excellent green beans. Recommend the grilled chicken breast w/​grilled peppers and onions. Don’t forget the homemade raspberry lemonade.
