    Grilled Pork chops
    Rich G.

    Monday dinner sat in the bar area at a booth. Wife had pork chops. I had their grilled white fish. Both excellent. Had green beans and carrots for our sides. Both perfectly cooked and delicious. Great food friendly staff. Yuritza took good care of us. 5/5.

    Tonight was great. All across the board...service and food. I haven't visited in years due to a bad experience but I'm very happy I decided to give it another try. The hostess ( so sorry for not remembering her name) and our server Gage were so friendly and welcoming. We tried a good bit of everything from spinach dip, ribs and pasta. The New Orleans pasta was our favorite. To top it all off, the prices were sooo affordable. Cheddars has regained me as a customer.

    This place is for the young diners that want to go out and have fun and BALL ON A BUDGET .... It's great for groups and the PRICING OS THE BEST PART !!!! It's cute chic and has a great quick get in and out menu or stay awhile and eat some home country cooking The drinks are seriously like 6 bucks Cute daiquiris and margaritas and the bartender is adorable. Her name is Olivia. She makes cute. Perfect little drinks that look just like the menu pictures. You can't go wrong. I see lots of kids go here after the prom or before the prom. This is really a great place for young people to start off on a budget who wanna go out and enjoy being in a restaurant atmosphere without breaking the bank Oh yes forgot to add they have the best melts in your mouth with honey butter croissants made fresh daily and they're always hot and warm and I forgot to tell you they have a great 350 400 cal menu for those watching and counting calories this place is one of the best kept secrets. That's a bang for your bug value I gave it a 3 only cause it's not a Super Steak House or anything fancy... it's one of the best to go to I love it for the value

    We were staying at the Holiday Inn Express in the same parking lot so for convenience, this was awesome. (Our first choice was Olive Garden but they had a 40 min wait). At Cheddar's we were seated immediately. Ambiance was ok, background noise was pretty loud. (Hard to hear server and he had trouble hearing us.) We waited quite awhile after being seated for our server to come. When he did, he said, "I'm sorry about the long wait, I was in the bathroom." Ummmm... TMI??? 100% sure that is what you should NOT say when you greet a table. My husband said he immediately picked up on what was said and first thought was, "I hope we don't get sick." Put in our drinks orders: 3 kids sodas and 2 waters. Then we looked at the menu. Decided on: kids burger, kids tenders, our oldest went with a 1/2lb burger, the lemon pepper chicken and the steak and ribs combo. Upon reviewing the check, I noticed that we had a $2.99 drink charge. I asked about it since my husband and I had water. The server said that since our one child ordered a regular burger, the drink wasn't included and he had to charge us for it. Ok... I get it, but let's get real. The kids meal was $5.99. She ordered a $9.99 meal, already $4 more. You added on a $3 drink but she got a tiny kids size and didn't get a refill. So we were charged $3 for a tiny kid's soda? And what if one of our kids wanted a refill?? That would have been free right? So wouldn't a decent human just have included the tiny kid's drink as a courtesy? She planned on getting a kid's meal but got a bigger meal. So we paid an extra $7 for her. She should have just ordered 2 kids meals for LESS money. Doesn't make ANY sense. For was just ok. Wasn't anything to write home about. Lemon pepper chicken was a bit over cooked. Side note: There were issues with the table seated across from us. Upon checking on them after they had their meals delivered, the husband said that they never got their appetizer AND he never got his Caesar salad. Honestly, we came here out of convenience to our hotel but I wouldn't have sought it out and probably won't in the future. Probably would do 2.5 but had to pick either 2 or 3... just couldn't get over the bathroom comment or the $3 kid's soda charge.

    Look, it's fast casual American food. It won't wow your socks but it will hit the mark. Tendies, good. Pot pie, good. Honey butter croissant, wow. Seriously they are free and I'd pay $10 for a plate of four but don't tell them that. Get the tendies, split a croissant in half. Throw that chicken in there and cover it in hot honey. You're welcome. Ask for extra honey butter glaze on the side.

    Well this is my go-to brunch spot to bring all my out-of-towners. I can't believe I don't still…read morehave a review posted in the system! Let me start by saying I've been here multiple, multiple times & I've never had any food items that weren't good. I always get breakfast (even if it's lunch time) so I don't know much about the lunch items. Not only is the food outstanding with a creative twist, it's consistent. Over the years, the place has expanded several times so now there is a decent amount of dine-in seating in addition to the outdoor seating. The place still stays packed but with their wait list in advance/text notification system & efficiency in seating customers, if there is a wait things move along smoothly. Additionally, anyone who is waiting knows it's worth the wait!! The service staff are friendly. The atmosphere is homey & they decorate for the various holidays & seasons. Owner/chef Lori is always walking around asking guests if everything is ok. On at least 2 occasions she happened to chat with me/my guest about some dietary restrictions & she whipped something up for us to try. My go-to dish is the harvest breakfast where you can pick 4 breakfast items from a list. This is a great way to sample more menu items. Here's my take on some of my favorites: - Sourdough pancakes are thin & really delicious. - Belgium Leige waffle is very sweet with the pearl sugar "nuggets" in them so taste them before you add a lot of syrup. - Scrambled eggs are well seasoned, not bland. - Avocado & tomato or the fresh fruit are nice light touches as one of the side item choices. - Fried chicken tenders are really good. Spice level 3 (medium) is not that spicy. It's flavorful. - Grilled chicken tenders are good. As much as I typically eat grilled or baked chicken, I allow myself to choose fried for these. - Grits are creamy. I get them with no cheese. I'm not a big grits person but I do like these! The menu is very extensive. It includes vegan, vegetarian, keto & gluten free. Is the breakfast a little pricey, the answer is "it's all relative." Sometimes it's just worth paying for a great meal. In case you haven't gotten the message, Harvest Kitchen is a must try. Do yourself a favor & have a visit. I'm betting it will stay on your list as a repeat eating spot!! Tips: - Use the text message wait list & signup before you leave your house. - You can always get 1 pancake on the side for $5. - 15% gratuity is included at checkout, as you pay you'll get options for an additional % or custom % like 0%, 3, 5% or more.

We decided to try this place out for the first time because we were in the area and wanted to dine somewhere with good vegetarian or vegan options. If you're dining in, check in with the host/hostess and they will tell you where you will be seated. You will be given a "ticket" to take to the counter to place your order. After you place your order, your food will be brought out to your designated table. We had a very enjoyable brunch at Harvest and will definitely come back next time we're in Katy.

We made reservations and were quickly seated when we arrived. The place is a bit dark when the sun goes down. Plenty of wine bottles lined up on the wall and a full bar. We went for their HRW menu. In addition to the regular menu, they gave a chef appetizer of Rockefeller Oyster. Nice touch. One comment though, when it was served, they put mine on top of the bread plate which I thought was odd. Oyster itself was very flavorful. For starters, we had the Jumbo Peri Peri shrimp and Jollof's Fire Bomb. The shrimps were just regular shrimps and was chewy. The Fire Bomb was tasty with brisket meat inside. We order the ribeye and fried red snapper for our mains. Suya Ribeye was very flavorful from the African spices. The jollof rice was delicious. My first time trying it. Kinda crispy and has a kick. Fried Fred snapper was well executed. My wife loved it. It was unfortunate that the restaurant was so dark that you can't really see your food to appreciate the effort that was put into it. It was a nice gesture that Chef Casey came out to talk to his customers. For desserts, we had the crème brûlée and banana fosters. Banana fosters was a big scoop of ice cream with couple slices of banana which was a bit disappointing. In comparison to other HrW restaurants, you can get more bang for the buck at other places. We would go back for the mains but skip the appetizers and desserts.

So we decided to try the burgers during this trip. I will say this, I will never order another burger at this restaurant. We are huge fans of fresh hamburgers, and we always try them at most restaurants that we go to. So we got a Hickory burger, a bacon cheeseburger, and a regular cheeseburger. All of our burgers were well done to the point that they were hard to chew and they were not tasty. Normally at this restaurant, food comes out very quickly, but this time it did take a little longer and now I know why. I was very disappointed in all of the burgers and how they were really way too well done. The restaurant was super busy and we should've said something, but we did not because we had been waiting so long. We just did not want to wait any longer. The french fries were super hot and fresh, I will give them that. I think at this point, we will stick to the chicken tenders because those are super good, but the burgers were not good at all. Again, we really enjoy this restaurant, but we are going to stick to what we normally order. If you order a burger at Mia's table, make sure you tell them that you want it done medium, and not well done. Other than this experience, we have always loved the food there and you get free ice cream after your meal. We highly recommend the chicken tenders and the baked beans are phenomenal. The green beans are great. The banana pudding is great and the staff is super friendly.

They serve brunch on Saturday and Sunday until 330. The brunch menu is huge. It is not a super large menu, which I feel very endearing. We decided to try the bagel and lox with cream cheese, the Buzz burger with fries, and their homemade chips. They start off by bringing you this beautiful craft of bottled water. That to me was an amazing bonus. We also ordered two sodas which came in a can. I sort of wish it was a more of a fountain drink than one can of soda for the price. *Now service was super slow. However, the waitress did come and tell us that they are running a little behind and she apologized for it and she was super sweet, so that made up for the weight. How do I known how long it was going to take, I don't know if I would've stayed, but in the end, the food was amazing. The burger was cooked to perfection. My boyfriend is a hamburger snob and he kept saying how good it was how fresh it was and how perfectly cooked it was. They serve you shoestring fries that feel like they're double fried and they were phenomenal. My bagel was toasted perfectly and had a very good amount of cream cheese and lox. As a Jewish girl living in the area that I do, it's very hard to find good bagels with lox and cream cheese. I will most definitely be back for this sooner than later. The homemade chips took quite a while to come out, and at one point I was ready to say we don't need it, but these potato chips beat Buccees beaver chips, 100%. They were super fresh and very crunchy and tasted amazing. I will definitely recommend those to anybody that orders some. My boyfriend then ordered a tropical sunrise smoothie and it was so tasty and tasted like a strawberry banana smoothie. Now once again that did take a long time to come out and at one point, we were wishing we had not ordered it but once we did get it, it was really good and I highly recommend it. The restaurant is not very large and it's the perfect brunch spot for anybody looking for a smaller Cafe with very good choices.
