Here are the top 10 based on Yelp reviews.

This one makes me sad. One of the staples of downtown lunch spots, TLC had a major fire and is in the process of rebuilding. I can't wait for a Jalapeno Cheeseburger with some of the famous "Red River Sand". You can see the latest on the rebuild in Lisa's story. TLC is located in downtown Texarkana on Broad Street.

3. Loca Luna Mexican Restaurant

This place is so good they have two locations and a third on the way. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu and their salsa is really tasty. Loca Luna currently has two locations, 4400 Moores Lane and 5200 West 7th Street.
