As someone who's managed a coffee shop/wine bar in Hedwig Village for a couple years and has been coming to Buffalo Grill for over a decade, I am genuinely impressed by the positive transformation this place has made. You can immediately tell the staff is being led well; everyone is SO upbeat, attentive, and genuinely happy to be here. The service feels warm and personal. Every guest is acknowledged, and they make a point to say goodbye to everyone on their way out. That kind of hospitality only comes from a healthy work culture, and it shows in every interaction. The food, even with some changes, continues to be solid for the price. Today we ordered the chicken tenders and the kids' breakfast, and everything came out fresh and tasty. I brought my youngest with me, and even he experienced great service, he asked for a to-go box and was treated with such a level of kindness from someone in management just about the same level of kindness and attentiveness as any adult guest. The ambience hasn't changed much in the last 10 years, but honestly, the improvement in the work culture makes the space feel more welcoming than it has in a long time. There's a comfort in the familiarity of the atmosphere paired with the uplift in the team's energy. Overall, it's wonderful to see a neighborhood staple not only stay consistent but actually grow in such a meaningful way. Buffalo Grill is absolutely headed in the right direction. read more

Leaving this review is painful, but it must be done. The removal of the huevos burrito is sacrilege. It's like McDonald's removing cheeseburgers or Popeye's removing fried chicken, but so much more painful. I hate that they removed steak as well, but I at least understand that move from a budgetary standpoint these days. But yall don't have a budget for a few big tortillas? Naw. I don't buy it. I will miss this establishment greatly. The original was a staple of my childhood. PS - Staff was great, but that cannot make up for the burrito sized hole in my heart. read more

The challenge. Find a restaurant for a meeting at lunchtime that can provide a lunch for under $15 including tax and tip within walking distance from the office. Enter Buffalo Grille. Great menu. Delicious salads. Just around the corner at Woodway and Voss. The Crunchy Chicken Salad was delicious. Chopped chicken on a bed of lettuce, avocado and blue cheese sprinkles. Tortilla strips and dressing on the side. So good. Perfect for a lunchtime meeting and stayed under budget. Will definitely order from here again. read more

We have been coming to this restaurant for over 20 years. We just love it. The food is delicious. The Burrito is excellent as well as the omelets. People are very kind and the service is is fast and friendly. The caffe lattes are magnificent the place is clean. It can get quite busy during the weekend but they work hard to make your experience as enjoyable as possible and the food is worth the line. read more

Today we stopped by for a quick lunch and there was no wait. We were helped quickly and the staff was friendly and helpful. We ordered the Migas and the breakfast special. The food was okay--nothing out of the ordinary--but I did enjoy the pancakes. There were plenty of open seats, so it felt relaxed and easy to dine in. read more

As the Duches of Buffalo Grill, I know a thing or two about this place. We frequent this place after church very regularly and I love that they always anticipate the church rush and are always very prepared. Even though the lines get pretty long, they are quick with the service and cleanup. The food is fresh and the prices are somewhat reasonable. I love that. It is a casual breakfast place with exceptional service and quickness. I always offer for the # 14, which comes with a stack of pancake, two eggs, two meats. This is definitely plenty for two people. I ought to make the pancakes blueberry and they are exceptional especially with the fresh butter and hot syrup. It really pairs well with the toasted cinnamon coffee. Definitely give this a try if you're in the area! read more

This place recently changed management and let me tell you, the new management is horrible. It's a lot slower considering the new employees they hired to replace the ones who have been working here for years. They redid the inside ruining the look. This went from my favorite breakfast spot to what feels like now a bunch of idiots serving you food (which taste a lot worse now). read more

Defintiely a Houston staple ! We love coming here for a casual dining experience with good food. Parking: The lot is a bit small and parking has been a challenge in the past. That being said, we do eventually get a spot and have never left because of this. Service: the staff is always friendly. I've never had someone take my order and note have a positive vibe. It is counter service so you do order at the counter, self serve most of your own drinks, and go get your food when your name is called. Food: The food is solid and the quality is reliable. I've never had a miss here. I do like that they have some reasonable portion sizes too - like the burger isn't overly crazy. We love breakfast or lunch here! Seating: There's indoor and outdoor seating. Most tables are 4 tops. read more

Been here three times within a year now and unfortunately hasn't been a place that has me coming back. Food can sometimes be overcooked and not tasteful. This time I got the 2 eggs any style. Was never asked how I wanted my eggs and yes my fault for not mentioning but also should have been asked. Hashbrowns were oily and no texture. Service is great and friendly every time I come. But to be cooked from scratch, should have more flavor and stand out more but haven't had that feeling. Last time I ordered a BLT and the bacon crumbled because it was so overcooked. Place has been clean every time I entered. Hopefully they find a way to elevate the kitchen to match the level of service you get from the FOH. read more

Buffalo Grille - #2 - Two Eggs Any Style - American Near Me - Houston, Texas

The staff is wonderful, however new ownership has changed many things that made this a weekly visit for us stop. New recipes and taking away steak from the menu was a big reason why we stopped coming, in addition we enjoyed coming in for dinner but can no longer due to new hours. read more

Glorious New York strip and over easy steak and eggs. Always great. Even if it's not on the specials menu, they will still let you order it if you ask! read more

One of Houston's great breaky spots. What to get? Always the migas. The setting is old school, rural Texas vibe. Service is fine. View is of a parking lot. They're also open for lunch and dinner, but I've only been for my morning meal. read more

What happened??? This used to be such a great place but the new ownership has seriously changed things for the worse. The meat is overcooked The portion sizes are much smaller - we have been coming here for about 20 years, have always ordered the same thing and usually have leftovers - we had to order more food this time because we were still hungry! Prices are too high They changed the biscuits! Thankfully they still have the cinnamon coffee! This 20 year customer is not going to come back any time soon. Such a shame. read more

The staff recommended their chocolate chip cookie with a new recipe and it was great! It's got a subtle little kick and the touch of sea salt topping perfectly compliments the chocolate! Bravo! read more

I used to come here all the time and order #10 before new ownership took over. It was scrambled eggs mixed with hash brown potatoes and a side of refried beans, plus tortillas. I went back about a month ago and saw the same friendly staff and seats/fixtures had been updated/changed. I was hopeful to see the changes and ordered the same dish as i was told that most of the dishes hadn't changed. My new #10 dish was scrambled eggs mixed with hash brown potatoes and a side of hash browns with toast. Buffalo Grille, you can see why this dish isn't good, right? It's mostly carbs and totally bland now. I freakin loved this place and will never go back with the new changes. Super sad. read more

Buffalo Grille is an institution. I've always heard good things about them. For whatever reasons, I've driven by here for years and never tried it - until now. The restaurant looks incredible inside. It is really quite charming. A friendly, personable gentleman was the manager and he was working the counter and on top of things. My friend and I both ordered one of the daily specials which was a basket of fried shrimp and French fries. Fried shrimp were somewhat fresh. We are an hour from the gulf, so you can't expect them to be super fresh like you're on the water and the boat just came in. They were slightly overcooked. Now, I must admit that I am a picky bastard when it comes to seafood. So, take my critique with a grain of salt. Most people would scarf them down and enjoy them. Cocktail and tartar sauces were excellent. Probably best in town. The French fries were addicting. I'm definitely going back and look forward to trying their other fare. read more

Love this place! Just good ole home made breakfast. Always fresh and super delicious. The pancakes are my favorite EVER!

A Houston staple, recently bought by the same family which owns/ runs Adair Kitchen, Los Tios, etc... Huge pancakes are the some of the best in town. I usually aim for the lower carb, high protein eggs over easy, turkey sausage, etc. However the biscuits are very good. I'd say the pancake syrup is on the lower end quality scale (I'm guessing refined sugar with food coloring). That said the prices remain relatively reasonable in this inflation adjust age. Crowd is a mix of young families, regulars and business folks. read more

Staff is great, the food is not the same and I do not care for the new menu. I do not feel that the meal was explained to me and enough detail. I picked up an order to go, and it really needed condiments; therefore, it did not taste as good as anticipated. The grilled chicken was dry. read more

Hamburgers and fries and onion rings. Kid had mini corn dogs with Mac and cheese. Burgers were very good! Fries good, onion rings were good not the best but good. Kid ate her mini corn dogs but could not stomach the Mac and cheese. She says the powder cheese tasted like powder. I agree!! read more

Ordering at the counter isn't a big deal, but suggesting a 30% tip is a bit much, for not doing anything, except pouring a really bad mimosa. I have no idea what champagne they use, but they had to add too much OJ just to it to make it drinkable. It's served in an oh so elegant plastic cafeteria cup. The condiments were made with everything but the actual product. The egg was good, the hot cake was good, the bacon could've been cooked longer, it was too greasy and limp. The hashbrowns are soggy and grey. Overall, I wouldn't bother going to this place, head across the parking lot to Carraba's. read more

The worst breakfast I've had in a while. The staff is friendly but I've been disappointed every time I've eaten there. Everything on my plate tasted extra burnt and I wish they would have mentioned that the hashbrowns have onions read more

Bad experience this morning. Just trying to get some breakfast with the boys after a workout. Ordered a nice chocolate milk thinking that was the move but instead I take a swig and the milk is like slime, checked the label after and it was expired. A little kid at the table next to me had the same experience and that influenced this review. Unacceptable from Buffalo grille. #Shrink the game. read more

Buffalo Grille - Omelette hash brown rye toast - American Near Me - Houston, Texas

Nice restaurant for breakfast or lunch. Breakfast is served all day. We had their lunch menu today. BLT basket and a chicken salad basket. Both sandwiches came with chips. I originally wanted breakfast, but I wanted items that seemed kinda pricey. They have breakfast plates available, but I wanted eggs and 2 meats. All meets are priced al la carte. For instance, a sausage link or patty was $4.39 each. That seemed crazy expensive to me. I opted for the lunch instead. Seating is complicated if you go around the breakfast hours or the lunch rush. We didn't have any trouble finding a table since it was after the busy time. They have small patios on both sides of the restaurant. Patios are dog friendly. This establishment is a walk up order style. They call your name and you retrieve your food. You also get your own drink. With all the self service, they still ask for a tip when paying. If you follow me, you will notice a trend here; I don't like the expectation of tipping these days. It grinds my gears! All that said, I do like the restaurant and I recommend it. Side note: the pancakes I saw at the table next to us were huge! Like as big as your face huge! That seems to be a big item ordered there. read more

If you have a hearty appetite after working out ,this is the place to eat.They offer breakfast all day and lunch and dinner after 11am. Their make your own omelettes with egg whites are a healthy option and have a variety off add ins such as spinach,mushrooms and guacamole for a small upcharge. The wait could be long to order as they are a busy establishment but they serve their food quickly after orderd.Enjoy. read more

Outstanding breakfast at Buffalo Grille. Tried the huevos rellenos and was thoroughly impressed. We'll worth a stop.

Had their BGLT on white bread. Sandwich was small though tasty enough. There were a few potato chips served with the sandwich but not many. If a loud venue is what you are looking, this is the place. I feel a bit offended when asked for a tip at check out as customers both order and pick up their food at the counter. Customers get their own silverware, drinks....all the work. There is no "service." As the customer does all the work so I am not sure why a tip would be required. Would maybe go back if friends wanted to go though really not high on my revisit priority list. read more

Terrible. I hope the owner reads this. Buffalo Grille could be an empire for their location and the advantage of being the only breakfast spot in the area. I've been a total of 3 times for meetings in the morning because of their location. The first time was awful, the second time was terrible and the third was absolutely inedible. This business hired two smug, surly men to "greet people" good morning and take customers orders. If I hadn't been in the company of kids I would have told those to gentleman to take a hike. Someone should report them to the rude police because good lord they were BOTH little assholes. Hope they read this too. Not today Satan. Slop disguised as food. I hope this place closes out soon or gets new management because all it is a gigantic mess. Starting with their employees! Get someone in there that wants to work, not these entitled little punks who can't move a muscle to even smile. Bye bye buffalo. Gross. read more

Had the French toast and they actually created the way I truly love it. Parking was a bit different. Lol. They do an outstanding job of maintaining social distancing. The food was really good:). The music was nice and the ambiance was befitting the theme. The establishment keep some pretty good hours. The bacon was well make and housed a homey cabin taste. Nice to halt by for a bite read more

This place has great chilaquiles on the weekends. The refries beans actually have flavor! The eggs are cooked perrfectly and the sauce they use is tasty. Throw a little cholula on top and you're good to go! Their pecan coffee is good, but it's even better if you mix it half and half with their Colombian coffee. read more

This was not really good food. I ordered an omelet that I customized and it was tasteless. I also ordered an A la Carte sausage that was also tasteless.... the coffee I ordered was Pecan flavored but they don't have a variety of creamers just the plain half and half which didn't allow for a tasty coffee experience, however, despite the food the Service (cashier at the front) was absolutely kind and accommodating. This place appears to be a bunch of local supporters (I can't imagine coming here daily) and everyone was social distancing. read more

I absolutely LOVE this place. I discovered it because I go to the nail salon across the way, and wandered over here one day and now I can't stop coming back. It is the perfect spot for breakfast, brunch or lunch! The staff is always VERY friendly and helpful and I always feel a welcoming/homey feel when I walk in. I introduced my boyfriend to Buffalo Grille and now he's hooked too! He's actually visited a few times without me. If I could give 10 stars, I would! read more

So I didn't get to try their food even though I was excited to go here. As soon as I walked in a lady behind the counter yelled across the room I can't bring my pup in. I was actually walking in to ask if it was OK to sit outside with my puppy and eat.... she continued to give me a sort of unwelcoming attitude to I decided to leave instead. I saw on another site that it Saud this restaurant was pet friendly. I beg to differ. I love to eat and I was hoping to find a spot close to my new home in Texas to come often to. read more

Great for breakfast. I either have an omelette or chilaquiles. Very Texan atmosphere. Counter service is very efficient.
