Thursdays-Tacos and Rita's for $2! Loved the beef fajita taco, mix the salsa with the queso, and Rita on the rocks. Mmm mmm good

I've been to Asiel's twice this month. The first time, I went with my husband. We got there on a Sunday around 11:30am, and it was packed. We had to wait about five minutes for a table. Our server was very nice. He came to our table not long after we sat down and took our drink order and brought our drinks out quickly. Then he took our food order. My husband had a party melt and I had the grilled chicken with mashed potatoes. I also ordered two scrambled eggs. We did not have to wait too long for the food. A young male server brought us our food, and I told him I was missing my eggs. He said he'd check on that and never returned. By the time our server came, I was done eating so I said no to the eggs even though he said he would go get them. He also apologized profusely, and he seemed genuine. The food was good. It wasn't the best I have had, but it was decent. The prices were decent as well. The second time I went to Asiel's, I went with my 10 year old daughter on a Friday around 11:45am. It was't at all busy. There were maybe like three tables with two people each. My daughter and I waited almost five minutes for someone to come seat us, but no one ever came or even acknowledged us. I won't go back to Asiel's after this last time. First forgetting my food and not bringing it to me after I let them know I didn't receive it and second because we were not acknowledged at all even after waiting close to five minutes to be sat. read more

Asiel's is a great breakfast spot. The place is clean with awesome staff. My husband loved his huge breakfast taco. My grandson loved his green eggs and ham and I had the chicken fried steak. It was delicious. We are going to have to go back and try lunch or dinner sometime! read more

First time in and glad we came. Very busy line out the door and people waiting inside. We almost changed our minds. I needed coffee quickly so we sat at the bar waiting for our table. We had a good time with our server John that tended the bar around 9:30am that we decided to stay at the bar. Though a few hiccups with our food. Not a big deal considering how busy it was. We loved the ambiance we loved the team work. As busy as the staff was they never showed frustration! Food was delicious. We Recommend this restaurant and will DEFINITELY be back. Thank you John for a wonderful morning!! read more

Asiles is the best! Our server was the nicest lady ever and helped so much! It felt like we were at grandmas house and they were just taking the best care of us. As far as food goes we got the sampler app with boudin balls, fried pickles and fried mushrooms and it was all so good! My favorite was the boudin balls that were the best I may have ever had. There are only three of them is the only problem ! The side with my dish was loaded baked potatoes and they were soooo good!! It may have had to do something with the puddle of butter but the bacon, cheese and sour cream all helped too! Desserts: we got the fried Oreos with strawberry ice cream, half baked cookie and the apple pie egg rolls! My personal favorite is the apple pie egg rolls.. they are covered in cinnamon and sugar with applied pie and caramel filling served with ice cream... I dream about these! read more

While the service is fast and friendly the last two times we ate there the food wasn't good. Most recent visit the fried shrimp had an ammonia taste, definitely not fresh and when brought to their attention was removed from the bill. The French dip sauce was over simmered and salty. Fried food is greasy in all the times we've eaten there. Judge for yourselves, however we won't be going back. read more

Food was good the first couple times I visited, but the third time I ordered fried bacon and it was a bit undercooked. I couldn't finish it so I boxed it up to cook later, and when I opened the box I noticed a small cockroach. Never again. read more

It was ok food. But on a Friday night, I observed them run out of food for patrons, having to return to tables and decline orders that they had recommended!! Took 15 minutes to get banana pudding ( worse I've ever had) to go while I watched the line propane my waiter shoot the shit and then she told him he should just make it himself. He never washed his hands before prepping the banana pudding after the multiple times he ran his hands through his hair. read more

Yes please!!! The best biscuits and sausage gravy ever!! It is hard to find a good gravy at a restaurant and this one has mastered it. Order this with a side of sausage and you are made! We also had pumpkin pancakes which were "fall heaven"! read more

Not a breakfast person here. I did not know breakfast was till 10:30. I asked for the chicken strip basket and was told no twice. They already had everything out for breakfast that came with the chicken strip basket, including white gravy, toast, and a side of French fries, all on the breakfast menu. They had chicken and waffles, so they had the chicken. But the waitress refused to put in the order. It makes zero sense. read more

Asiels is one of my favorite restaurants in the area. They always have amazing food and great service!

Food was ok overall. It's a little over priced imo, but the donut burger was legit I must say.

I came in for breakfast this morning. Our server was really great, and food was delicious. Really cool local spot.

Fresh food and portions are big. Always had very good service Very comfortable ambiance with interesting decor read more

Excellent food, very tasty and filling, definitely comfort food. I got the buffalo chicken salad and I have to say that I recommend. Fast and quick service, also a cool looking place with a nice atmosphere. read more

While visiting Freeport I was recommended to try Asiel's. Lately I haven't received accurate reviews on restaurants so I thought I'd ignore any negative comments. Entering the restaurant I was greeted by a friendly and welcoming hostess. The restaurant was spacious and the atmosphere relaxed. Once seated the warmth continued with our wonderful waitress. My Cajun meatloaf was good, but it could have been a bit warmer, and my margarita was just ok. All in all I would recommend this restaurant and I look forward to returning someday. read more

Great food and fun ambience. Service can be slow so don't come if you're busy! We enjoy the fish tacos and burgers. read more

Banana Bread is amazing. Very kind and helpful staff. I have never had a bad meal here.

This is our go-to lunch spot. Last week we had fries with our lunch specials and they were crispy on the outside and tender inside. My husband had the French dip and the au jus was over reduced, thick and salty. My fried shrimp yummy. This week the fries were greasy which made us sad. The fried shrimp is fresh and delicious. My husband had the patty melt that was really good and messy so get more napkins! read more

This is my favorite breakfast spot in town. The service is always so friendly and the atmosphere is very family friendly and peaceful. My favorite breakfast is the chicken, biscuits and gravy but I haven't tried anything I don't like. I always get the fresh squeezed juice - I like the orange, pineapple and ginger combo that is packed with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits for your gut and body. read more

I have mixed feelings about this place. Not sure if we will return or not, not enough negative to scratch from our list, but maybe not enough to draw us back. The restaurant has a pretty cool theme, situated next to this lake allows for a great view. The deck at the back could be much nicer, has a cheap and outdated feel. Maybe some nice reggae or similar music would give it a nice ambiance. The food, while creative, was just a race to the ER with their gut busting artery clogging options. My kids had donut burger kid meals, fun I guess, but a little excessive. I had the grilled cheese burger (burger stacked between two grilled cheese sandwiches) not as good or fun as it sounds. Too much bread and inadequate amount of or poor quality cheese. The onion rings were good. Wife had the chili burger, tasted like something from sonic drive in. Service was lack luster, not rude, but definitely disinterested in the customer. As I write this review, I realize we'll probably not make the drive back to this place. If it was around the corner from us (we're in Santa Fe) I would probably try again. There are ways to be creative with food that don't require obsessive amounts of frying or sugar. read more

This is based on my food order only. The service was good and the place overall is nice. We came here on Father's day after we left a beach house in Freeport. It was on the way home and we wanted to stop before everyone went their separate ways. I ordered the strawberry salad. The majority of the table had breakfast. I also added a popping punch because they have a slect HH on Sundays. The salad was eh. The chicken was dry and the salad dreasing wasn't that tasty. I have had a version of this salad many times because its one of my favorite salads but this wasn't it. Everyone else in my party enjoyed the breakfast. I would try it again i would just go with something else. read more

Not bad at all. Solid food with good service. I enjoyed the all you can eat shrimp. The loaded mashed potatoes were really good! Drinks were meh. It sits on the water, so you can sit on the patio to enjoy that view. Otherwise, the restaurant decor is pretty standard. read more

if you are craving some breakfast I would %100 recommend this place. delicious food, excellent service. Skip Dennys and IHOP and go to Asiel's. Support local businesses and stop going to chain restaurants when you're able! read more

Place was filthy - lots of flies, cobwebs in the windows, dirty windowsills; bathrooms not clean. Waitress got our order wrong; food was hot but not well-seasoned. Would never eat here again. read more

Food was beet good Dog friendly patio They could trim the trees a little to see more water. Turtles were out sunbathing. Brunch Punch special menu was deceiving- $5 till 2pm Charged $7 for margaritas- no prices on the menu and when asked if menu was $5, waiter said yes. Did Not specify some on the brunch drinks were more. Manager apologized and adjusted the bill...just know there are No prices on the drink menu..so we feel that is deceiving the customer/ be aware, and ask how much everything by is. Liked the Tabasco honey too (another extra charge) Banana bread very good! Had Texas trash and egg quesadilla..again very good. read more

There are a lot of mixed reviews about this establishment and as far as the bad reviews go, if the manager wasn't aware of the problem then the review is worthless. The management should always be aware of issues that arise so they can take corrective measures to insure the issue doesn't happen again. We decided to give it a try after a day of diving because we were hungry and because we are always up for a new spot. We all ordered sweet tea which was really good, 5 glasses good to be exact and a to go cup. Took a good look at the lunch and breakfast menus before making the final decision, breakfast is served until 2pm on the weekends. We ordered a total of 4 entrees that were all great. Texas Trash - 8/10 Two biscuits, split-topped, hand-battered chicken breasts covered with 2 farm fresh eggs, smothering with sausage gravy & served with home fries $13.00 This dish was awesome, biscuits & gravy with fried chicken and eggs, it is a must try. Shrimp Bang-Bang - 8/10 Gulf coast panko, parmesan-crusted deep-fried shrimp drizzled with our secret Bang-Bang sauce, served with two sides & hush puppies. $14.00 The bang bang sauce was really good with a little heat and plenty of flavor paired with perfectly cooked shrimp made it a phenomenal dish. Had fries and green beans as the sides, both were really good. Fried Fish Basket - 7/10 Catfish hand-battered, served with handcut fries, housemade slaw & hush puppies. $12.50 The catfish was fried to perfection, it had a great flavor and a good crunch. Had mac & cheese instead of the slaw, yummy. The fries are really good along with the hush puppies. French Toast - 6/10 Six delectable triangles of challah bread. $6.50 What's not to love, it was good French toast. The customer service was on point, our waitress Charro was killing it, empty glasses didn't happen at our table and she was always there when needed, all this while being fully packed. The fossil exhibit is a nice touch while waiting to be seated. A replica of Asiel, the woolly mammoth skulll found in the lake is also on display. Overall this is a great place with great food, definitely worth a visit to see for yourself. read more

Glad we looked this place up before heading out. Got there around 10am and we needed somewhere with a good food and a patio that we could hang for awhile before hitting Surfside for the week. Angelica, our waitress was very nice and attentive. The bartender was very nice too and was very quick in fixing me a Bloody Mary. Also ordered a pitcher of Mimosaronno with pineapple juice(Happy that was able to take 1/2 to go in a sealed container). The breakfast was good, but feel that the sausage gravy could have been better. We ended up staying through lunch. Hubby was happy with catfish and I really enjoyed my coconut shrimp. Will be back. read more

I've been here twice now on my way back to Houston from Surfside. It feels like one of those places you go to as a tradition! I always ask to sit by the wall with the lakeside view, which is never a problem considering how big the place is--and plenty of parking too! I got the blackened fish tacos last time and the blackened shrimp tacos with a margarita this time ($3 during happy hour). Everything here has been fantastic, though I prefer the shrimp tacos because they load them up with elote and spicy mayo! The onion rings here are so crispy too. And the marg flavor was very strong. They are super generous all around with the food and drink here. Don't forget to stop by the patio out back before leaving for a better view of the lake!! read more

The food here is ok. My biggest complaint would be that they need to do a deep clean. Maybe the ventilation needs looked at. Everything feels and looks greasy. Someone in our party wiped the table top down with wipes because of their small children and it was really dirty. I know this is a popular restaurant and food is not bad. Just do some spring cleaning! read more

This used to be one of my favorite places to eat, but was a huge disappointment today! The tables, floor, and room were all very dirty. Flies were landing on our table and they did not have the ingredients to make the food that we wanted to order. The restaurant was not busy at all, and they were out of the waffle mix to make Monte Cristos. I decided to give the burger a try, but it came out smelling weird and tasting very bland. I went to the bathroom to wash my hands and the bathroom door was so sticky when my arm touched it. There was hardly any soap to wash with. I had read bad reviews that this place had gotten dirty and rundown, but wanted to give them another try since we've always liked it. We will not be coming again. read more

My first visit to Asiel's , was a success. Neat and clean are a couple of things that's very noticeable. Friendly hostess too! Emaly was a great waitress! She suggested several different dish. I went with Chicago Burger. Texas toast for the bun is always a good thing. Cheese, grilled onions and steak sauce made for a great burger (patty melt)! They offered 1/2 fries and 1/2 onion rings, you can't go wrong there !! When in Clute / Lake Jackson, you can't go wrong going to Asiel's. Go get Full read more

We were in town for my Dad's 60th class reunion. Two from Frisco Tx, Two from Killeen and me from Austin. We happened on this local spot and we all highly recommend if you are looking for a very GOOD brunch spot. The service was excellent both days we went. The wait staff courteous and friendly. This quaint restaurant is on a small lake called Mammoth lake. Where they actually found mammoth bones. Bon Appetite! read more

Excellent food and service. Service is always good and welcoming. The Texas Trash is amazing and enough for two to dine.
