    Summer Teriyaki Lunch
    Jay D.

    Service is excellent. Ambiance feels like you're right at home. The food was great. I went for lunch and I ordered the Pollo Francesca. It was delicious and creamy! They have a nice patio out front and live music Wednesday-Saturday. Lovely place--I will be back.

    Cool street scenery.

    The main entrees were really good here. The salad was tiny and had the weird lettuce that looks like tree leaves that I don't like. Lol But that's just my preference. The garlic bread was good but it was just a few tiny pieces. The decor was really cool. It's like you're on a city street. Ambiance was different.. There seemed to be a group of regulars performing karaoke so I felt a little out of place. I would definitely go back for the entrees though. My daughter had a bacon burger and it was really good and I loved my chicken parmigiana and spaghetti. They both had a lot of food and really good flavor.

    Crab cakes Benedict - very good. Family liked scrambled eggs and waffles. Good service - coffee was maybe disappointing for a predominately Italian themed place.

    Chicken and sausage gumbo
    Mike M.

    I had dinner here last week for the first time in several years. My memory of that visit was an ok meal but obviously it didn't prompt me to return any sooner. It's easy to miss this place as it's tucked away far from FM 1960 in a large strip center but it does at least have a sign on that road. When I arrived, I discovered quickly that it was Karaoke night which would begin soon. After being seated and presented the menu, I decided to order the Pollo Piccata ($13.95) that came with a choice of soup or salad and I chose the seafood gumbo and the gumbo arrived about 5 minutes later. The small bowl had sausage, chicken and shrimp in it along with a good tasting roux and I graded it at a 3.5. Later the entree arrived consisting of 2 boneless breasts with mushrooms and capers in a lemon butter sauce along with some fried potatoes on the side. Everything on the plate was acceptable in taste but probably not a dish that I would reorder instead of trying something else on the menu (3). Kind of what I remembered from my visit years ago. Table service was good. I realize that Clementine's has been here for many years and therefore must have a clientele that supports it. However, my experience doesn't make me want to beat a path here to return anytime soon because there are other similar type of restaurants that do. So I will give a 3 overall but doubt of a timely revisit.

    Gone are the days when you walk into a place and smell the food greatness you're about to indulge as you expect great breakfast and brunch at a regular price. These guys have got you covered! Let me also mention that each and every server in the place is as hospitable as all servers used to be back in my day! haha Always wanted to say that....no, I'm not old - i just play a geezer in real life. Give them a try guys - because the breakfast platter is amazing, and don't forget the pancakes!!!

    Club Sandwich....
    Prentiss M.

    Ok, I've tried this spot multiple times, it actually always turned out DECENT, only because I had to doctor up whatever I ordered, but TODAY I couldn't do that. I ordered the club, took over 25 mins to receive a sandwich and I was the only person in the seating area. So I stayed, and once my food arrived the sandwich was beautiful in presentation but the taste was horrible!!! The cheese wasn't even melted and the bread was previously frozen and you can taste that. The servers were nice, and friendly but I guess due to Covid the food has went down a peg or two.

Thankfully, Mark was there and initially was told a 35 minute wait but seemed intent by quicker. Ambiance: 4/5 It was breakfast time so of course it was a busy time. For my visit, it was crowded but not to where you couldn't hear your table. Dress is casual, good for friends, solo, or pit stop. Service: 5/5 Our waitress was very knowledgeable and friendly. Since it was our first visit there, she gave us some background that it was a Pappa's owned restaurant and food is made from scratch. Food: 3/5 They offer mimosas and I was tempted to order, but was driving and it was 9AM so forewent that option. There are food options for every tastebud. Mark ordered the fried cheese sticks, they were one of the items that I found worthwhile to return for. I opted for the Waffle feast. It included a waffle, that I added pecans on top to, two strips of bacon, eggs your way and hash browns. To say that I needed to add salt and pepper to the eggs and hash browns because they tasted bland and flavorless was unfortunate. It also was served at room temperature, because it was made from scratch, would think it be warmer to hot. The waffle was savory and had good mix and topped with the pecans made it even better. If you're on this side of town and want a change up from the "other breakfast diners" DOT would be where I stop. Fast, friendly service. Depending the food you get, it gets the job done for some sustenance to hold you over when you're not sure when your next meal is because you'll be in Galveston for 7 hours riding a float in the Mardi Gras parade.

    My never ending quest for the perfect hashbrowns lead me to Nate's, which was further motivated…read moreafter realizing it was on my list for years. What I eventually found both surprised and delighted me, and Nate's gets a thumbs up overall. Pictures are deceiving as I thought the place would be larger but it's a tight fit for bigger groups. There are only a handful of tables but plenty of character. It's also a bit grimey, unsightly and even a tinge dodgey, which may be a deal breaker for others but is an immediate appeal to me. Two things immediately standout when it comes to the food: the portions and the prices are outstanding. The offerings are as no frills as the rest of the establishment. The other surprise was how much influence there was from Mexican cuisine. Hash browns were the goal, but chorizo and chilaquiles were the bonus. Another surprise? The hash browns weren't as crispy as I would have wanted. It's entirely plausible that I came on an off day, which happens. However everything else was on point as my chorizo skillet was absolutely dynamite, pancakes were fluffy and indulgent, breakfast tacos were outstanding, and my eggs were perfectly softly scrambled. Even the bacon and sausage patties were delicious, which is a tall order considering it's not likely made in house. Lastly, as someone who drinks cold water like it's a hobby (#1), I'm especially grateful for the massive 32 oz cup of water, which is perfect for someone who drinks like a camel. The staff is not the quickest but they are friendly. Spanish may go further with most and they're not the quickest when it comes to greeting folks or cleaning tables. The food is the star and consider paying in cash. ____________ (#1) I'm thirsty.

I wanted to start with one biscuit, but the biscuits come in pairs. The waitress said I could order just one anyway, but the order ended up being two. I meant to save the second one for breakfast, but that was not to be. It did not survive long enough to make it out the door. My actual meal was a bacon swiss and mushroom burger, which was excellent. Between the biscuits and the burger, I am forced to acknowledge that it was entirely too much food. Sadly, that did not prevent me from eating all of it anyway. Delicious! The restaurant, which is a diner with very basic decor, is on an approach road to IAH, and is open 24/7. When I arrived in the evening, the place was empty. By the time I left, there were a whole bunch of customers. I noticed in other reviews that people were saying they did not receive checks for their meal and felt they were over-charged at the register. I did not receive a check either, but the amount I was charged at the register seemed accurate -- and I was paying attention because I had read the other reviews first.
