Our service was excellent and so attentive. They have many booster and high chairs, and the bathroom had a small changing table. They just started their draft Hofbrau Oktoberfest yesterday, and it was perfect. We ordered the sausage sampler, the meatball appetizer with the red cabbage, and the chicken schnitzel with jagersaus. We would come back for the schnitzel with jagersaus and red cabbage. We went to Germany earlier this year, and this reminded us of some of the great food we had there. Compared to other bier gartens or bars at the same price point, this place really delivers.

I…read moreordered a High Noon, poured it over ice, and after taking a few sips noticed a yellow residue ring inside the glass along with lipstick still left on the rim. Clearly the glass had not been properly cleaned. I brought it to the bartender's attention and while she offered to remake the drink, there was no apology beyond that, no refund offer, and honestly no sense of urgency or concern about serving a dirty glass. By that point, I was completely put off and declined the replacement. I understand mistakes happen, but cleanliness at a bar should be the bare minimum, especially when it comes to drinkware. Unfortunately, this experience ruined the visit for me and I won't be returning.

I don't eat meat, but I NEEDED a grilled cheese and an order of onion rings just sounded like the right thing to do, so I did it. My oh my! What I got was the largest grilled cheese sandwich I've ever seen on what I think was brioche bread? It was very much the texture of a croissant and whoa....so tasty! The onion rings were very nice with thick sliced onions so the ratio of onion to batter was perfect. JLB obviously takes changing out the oil in their fryers seriously (as many places don't) because they were fresh and didn't taste like anything that had been deep-fried in the oil previously. This is a real issue for me. I don't want tortilla chips that smell and taste rancid, nor do I want churros that taste like tortilla chips that have been previously fried in the same rancid oil. I have an extremely sensitive olfactory sense, but it lends itself nicely to eating out at establishments that take the care and concern for cleanliness and their patrons. Speaking of cleanliness, JLB is spotless, although to the point the cleaning products smell overwhelm the entire small establishment. I immediately knew when I walked in that I couldn't eat there, but I'm sure glad I ordered to-go! My order was prepped and ready swiftly and too big to eat for just one person so I shared with my neighbor who is recovering from an injury. Literally, don't order a large onion rings if you don't have several people to share it with. Tee hee! Great Job JLB!

As a whole, I admire what KP's is attempting to do with the community. They offer affordably priced…read morefood (#1), simple and tasty casual fare, and keep it relatively flexible for all folks (dates, families, group dining, etc.) by providing excellent service, and a consistent experience every time. Similarly to their more popular location in Memorial (#2), this outside of this Bellaire spot doesn't immediately tell the full story. The interior has an industrial vibe, with the high ceilings and overhead fixtures, but as converted into a solid dining space. The large tilted mirrors in the main area are reminiscent of the now defunct Helen's (#3) and makes for a fun (or perhaps distracting) visual. The spacious layout allows breathing room for all kinds of groups. Service has been good overall, and prompt throughout every visit. The American bistro inspired menu has a decent amount of variety that spans from brunch to a tasty weeknight dinner and a drink. Their starters have a variety of tasty bites that include the white truffle eggs, wicked wings, prosciutto-melon burrata, Mama Pauley's meatballs, and a very addicting chipotle pimento cheese dip. While I appreciate the vegan-friendly hippie chickpea croquettes, it needed just a bit more seasoning. Their bacon double cheeseburger has been deemed "insta-famous" and it certainly didn't disappoint. It's juicy, a little messy, but a lot delicious. It paired well with their large cut fries (consider upgrading to the truffle fries), but the house made chips are also a good light bite. Their salads are equally fabulous from their classic caesar to a hearty cobb salad. I wasn't as impressed with the crunchy Asian salad, but thought their faro salad was a thumbs up. Understandably, the priciest meals are some of their grilled and house specialty meals, such as a prime tenderloin filet ($42), Mediterranean roasted redfish ($36), twelve hour ribs ($29), and rosemary-lemon chicken ($29), all of which are solid. I feel the buttermilk chicken tender platter ($19) is really meant for children, but is great for any tender lover in the bunch. Their weekly "features" are a series of daily specials that range from prime rib nights on Wednesdays and ribeyes on Thursdays, and "kids eat free" specials + their happy hour give folks plenty of reason to check it out. ___________ ( #1) Especially during their seasonal deals which can sometimes include steep discounts.

Ordered the mushroom Swiss burger and salad with a beef patty. The burger was delicious. The seasoning was very good and the whole patty was bursting with flavor. The buns just sunk in the beef with all the juices. The fries were excellent also. They have patio seating outdoor with cooling fans. We went around 8/830ish so wasn't that bad but I can only imagine how hot it' is, sitting around lunchtime 12-3pm. Service was ordering at counter and wait for your name to be called out. Although there were enough spots to park, but I'm sure it fills up during busy time

If Bubba's looks like a living relic, that's because it is. What was originally a key shop was…read morepurchased by the OG owner, Bubba Gillam converted it to an ice house before the burger concept moved from Westheimer over 40 years ago. Their claim to fame was being the first establishment to serve bison burgers along with beer before offering anything else. Once Bubba sold the place to one of his VIP customers, it's been run by the same family ever since. This is truly one of the most old school buildings one can find in the greater Galleria area. The view of highways and parking lot pot holes is admittedly somewhat depressing, but there is a certain nostalgic charm that only a place like this can capture. The seating situation is outdoor / patio only, which makes this a tough spot during warm weather days. The indoor area is reserved only for the staff, consisting of mostly young folks hustling to keep the food going. Avoid using the restrooms if possible, it's one of their roughest patches. Today, the menu is still very simple, consisting of mostly burgers and sandwiches with some fries, and miscellaneous sides like frito pies, potato salad, and onion rings. The burgers are $8.25 a patty, along with $10.25 for the bison. Their burgers are $11-16 each, which may not sound crazy nowadays, but feels pricey considering the portion. Throw in extras like bacon ($2.25), a fried egg ($1.50) chili ($2.50) etc. and it'll add up quick. Thankfully the food is consistent and tasty. Their frito pie burger ($12.25/14.25) is rarity in the HTown burger world, and I have high praise for their patty melt ($11/13). Still, I can't help but enjoy their simple, but pricey double cheeseburger ($17.50) and wolf it down with their very crispy fries. I think I could just focus on the latter and be extremely pleased. Parking can be a little wild. There are no defined areas in the gravel pit(s), and there is a massive pothole that looks like a crater. Missing the turn for this place makes it hard for anyone to turn around, so it's not inconceivable to think they've missed out on a lot of potential customers as a result. Any burger lover owes it to themselves to give Bubba's a shot at least once. While the bison burgers don't taste significantly better than the beef, their food is still worth the occasional splurge with good company on a cool weather day.

They offer a variety of toppings to make your burger unique, as well as chicken sandwiches, salads, hot dogs and milkshakes (offering a new flavor of the month to help keep customers excited). I love the open seating they offer and that TVs are surrounded by the tables for entertainment. Another perk is that they're open late until 12am on weekdays and until 4pm on weekends! I typically like to place my order over the phone, so that it can be ready by the time I arrive but as of recently, I noticed that they switched to an AI customer service and it hasn't been the best experience.
