The owner didn't stop working even during the interview. When asked if he was tired, he says "yeah, but the good kind of tired". What a boss.
My wife and I had our first date here over 12 years ago. We love this place.
Wow, CONGRATS! What's your favorite dish at GoGo?
I worked with Chef Tome 30 years ago. He was top notch then, driven and so very passionate about his craft. I'm so glad to see his success in his business. It's no wonder he and his wife started their own restaurant. Everything he created was out of this world. Congratulations on long term success. The story was so great to see.
That's a real restaurant family. The business is part of you.
They feed the staff for free ?? This man is truly a blessing and his wife is his rock.
Feeding the staff is one of the cheapest perks. Have you worked in a restaurant? Essentially you are just preventing food waste.

That may be true, but how many shut down for a meal??
Now that's a guy who really loves cooking
Wow! What great people - thank you GoGo for giving back to your local community. Teaching food prep classes to give that money back to the local foodbank.... was an amazing idea. Great job!
One of the best restaurants around North Texas. We have to drive over an hour these days but it is well worth it.
🏆🏆🏆👍🇺🇲🙏
Thank you for sharing
Never been to Texas but when i do go I'll definately be visiting BOYD and eating at GoGo Gumbo!! I've just discovered TEXAS COUNTRY REPORTER and am learning alot! Cant wait to visit one day!!!
Well all this food really looks delicious🤟🤟🤟🤩😍🥰 oh that's so nice that they get back not every where does
These folks are gold!
i swear man...so many media outlets want you to believe america is so bad, then you watch this and you instantly fall in love with it again
I used to in Paradise, just up the road, and used to frequently run to Boyd for supplies. I'm surprised I've never seen them. Thanks for opening my eyes.
For almost a year I worked as a dishwasher/busboy at a place in Okanogan Waashington that the owner would have night shift family style late dinner. It was really good for the moral and ironing out problems. Even problems at home would be discussed kinda like a group therapy. But mostly it was just for bonding and letting us know he appreciated us.
The owner inherited the restaurant and many time expressed he was passing his good fortune to us also. He'd even let us split up some of the leftovers from a buffet table and the kitchen if it wasn't to be used to make up a soup or whatever. He was still a real boss but none of us took advantage of his generosity like you hear of staff stealing food at some places
I really missed working there and I was truly sad to leave but being young and looking for more money I felt I had to. But every time coming back to eat it was almost like visiting my second home. Thank you Jerry M. for the good memories
what a great story, I would eat there in a minute. the food looks amazing.😎👌
I have been here and all the food is awesome!
Haven't been there in years but I am glad to see it getting some exposure on here.
Now they are Role Models... Makes us Fellow Texans Proud..
When you own(mortgage paid off) the land, when you own(paid off) the building and everything in it - that kind of restaurant can survive recessions, pandemic, earthquakes and all ❤️💪✌️👍 way to go guys. I'll see y'all in December 😎 greetings from the Northern Peruvian Amazon Jungle 🌴🌴🌴
Greetings from UK. I am liking your channel. Down to earth hard working people.
Hard working folks. You can’t beat that. What a good crew. Crazy how awesome most things can be when people take a lot of pride in what they’re doing.
Hello,, if you 2 guys keep up this level of videos I just might move to Texas!!!! From montana. So keep up the good work. Ps. Your wife is beautiful ! Frank from montana....
Wow. He is a boss you love to work for. No own ever sits with their employees to eat with them.
I wish I lived in a smaller town...this just about brings tears to my eyes....this is real America....not the big city crap!!!
This is one place I would love to eat
lovely people.
Outstanding! 🤤
HES A EXAMPLE OF GOOD HOME RAISING, HATS OFF TO HIS FAMILY...
Hard work will get you places.I'm 59 and I've been working my ass off since I was 15.My advise is to find something you love to do and find a way to make a living doing it.Congrats to this place.
Props to You Sir, for You're Example of Humble HUMANITY, & Work Ethic... Only Few People, Do What You Do..........👌🏼👊✌🏼
GOD SPEED
Good people. I am sure there are more of them out there. One would not know it through the main media companies. Sad.
What a great couple.
Impressed. Forty years in the business.
Glorious
The food looked awesome
On working at least 15 hours a day for a sustained duration: "you get really lucky when you're working that hard." That's gold.
Love his philosophy
Certified Platinum!!!!!!
VERY NICE 😎😎😎
They're a long way from saltwater but with his attitude and drive and that of his wife and the quality of the food, I see them in business until they choose not to be in business.
Add that one to my bucket list.
I remember Wise County being a very let's say... Corrupt county.
My father had the very first private club to serve alcohol in his restaurant.
Boyd, was nothing but a blip on the map back than. And it's really not that long ago.... 40 years I guess.
This is real TEXAS
A really good gumbo is Charlie's in Sulphur, LA.
Man that's a REAL BOSS
special 😇
i'm hungry.
LONGER VIDEOS PLEASE
This guy goes to sleep dreaming of cooking....
Come back to houston
Why ?........that leftist loonie bin gets crazier everyday .
Did you see how much shimp they put into that bowl! Like 4! Cheap! I'll pass!!!
I'm sure the sauce and the rice and flavor make up for it. Plus most people order other items as well, aka appetizers and then DESERT. Did you see them cakes?!!??!!
Well it looks like it’s definitely a Go Go to the toilet
