A very cool place to have lunch. Excellent soups and salads along with sinful home-made ice-cream. A very nice place to enjoy good food and do some people watching.- Blair AllenAugust 22, 2018A classic eatery for Houstonians whether you’re craving breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Perfectly fluffy omelets, delectable Pot Roast Grilled Cheese, and hand spun gelato await you.
leanneDecember 18, 2014blackened salmon ceaser salad!! it combines three great things: ceaser salad, salmon, and spicy food! definitely worth a try.

Marwan MzMarch 10, 2019Amazing brunch spot .. the pancake and the egg are amazing.. am i coming back (for sure will be back) .. friendly staff- leanneDecember 14, 2014I really love their blackened salmon ceaser salad, cheesy garlic bread, and their burgers. also, their gelato is amazing
Xenia Urich-SassMarch 26, 2022Wonderful Eggs Benedict, lots of variations, a small waiting line to order, manageable. A little noisy, but worth it. I will surely return😉
- Christy LandesDecember 27, 2014Great breakfasts and selection of iced teas, including decaf. I like the grilled chicken sandwich and salad with mango vinaigrette. They validate garage parking.
Marsha HanchettNovember 29, 2014The service was self-serve which wasn't bad bc it was me! My entree was good & tiramisu gelato was great. Although they could do a better job at keeping floors clean, especially if you aren't busy.
Jeff RosenbaughNovember 24, 2010Chipotle Chicken Pepper Pasta is probably my favorite, but the Blue Cheeseburger is delicious & comes w/ sweet potato fries (best sp fries I've ever had)! Pass on the chips/salsa or the Walnut Chicken
Risa PhilpotSeptember 15, 2017The presentation was a little crappy for my to-go order😒 ..But! I have to admit it was still very good👍
Mazanin FAugust 2, 2015The pot roast entrée is huge, it probably has more meat than you can/should eat in one meal!
- Jack GuoMarch 27, 2015Affordable prices. Large quantity of food. Good taste. Free style of ordering. Nice place to grab a bite.
Andres ElizondoJanuary 10, 2017Any of their pastas are great. The gelatos make excellent desserts as well.
Tonya BushAugust 13, 2017Love this place. But I still don't understand why the red head guy still has a job. His customer service skills are very poor. I cringe when I see he will be the one taking my order.- MelindaJuly 25, 2017The healthier than the rest omelette is great. This is a great place for breakfast.
A.Lenay 💋August 8, 2014Chicken & waffles are great. Sunday brunch line starts around 130PM. Get there before then.

Good food options and a decent number of gluten free options.
Nick BartoshJanuary 13, 2012If you haven't been in a while they have been updating their menu. Try the fajita tacos. They are amazing.
They got rid of my favorite salad: the warm bacon and spinach. My reasons to come here have dropped
Get the classic grilled cheese but upgrade to the tortilla soup. Yum!
MirandaFebruary 10, 2010Boneless buffalo wing tacos are fantastic. Perfect amount of spice and it comes with a delicious Asiago cheese dipping sauce.Also enjoy their flavored ice teas.
- Kaley DanielDecember 4, 2013The Strawberry Green Tea is very good & refreshing. No sugar needed IMO!
Sheryl ResurreccionOctober 14, 2011The crab stuffed mushrooms appetizer and the potroast entree were both amazing... And try the flavored teas!
PenelopeOctober 30, 2011Gorgonzola pasta with chicken... It's my husband's favorite! It's not on the menu, but you can still order it.
Kimberly KingFebruary 26, 2013Delicious food tastes better when there's a pet friendly patio (unlike this location).- David OrtezMay 31, 2010If you are willing to challenge your taste buds ... go for the Fiesta Jalapeno Chicken or Chipotle Chicken Pepper Pasta for a yummy Italian/Mexican fusion.
Nazlı DemiragAugust 12, 2014I got blue cheese burger with sweet potato fries and small stella... Fantastico...
Enjoy the best of all types of breakfast by ordering a pancake sandwich: eggs, bacon & cheese squeezed in between carby goodness and powdered sugar!- Jesreve EdwardJune 7, 2023Sweet potato fries were cold by the time my order was served. Spicy chicken sandwich on Gluten-free bread was “ok”, nothing great.
Great service every time. Love their ability to be flexible with my eating requirements.
Henry's Hungry HoustonJuly 22, 2010Get the Lemon Chicken pasta. Served with mushrooms and topped with a mouthwatering Alfredo sauce. Mango tango iced tea. Parking is hectic.
