We had lunch here and I can say we were so impressed with the greeting at the door by a gentlemen that was so friendly. They say first impressions are important but it set the tone for our visit. Once in we chatted a little and the waitress was very helpful showing us the menu to help us choose from a great selection. My guest had the West Coast Chicken Pesto Sandwich and I had the Clam Chowder. They both hit the spot and were great. I wanted so many other items so I will return but it was cold out and I wanted soup. The story of family ownership make this a special place and I would highly recommend it. read more

Awesome food, nice atmosphere and always wonderful service! This is a great place to go for a nice night out with your significant other. It's also perfect for lunch with your girlfriends. If you order a kid's dinner, get the macaroni and cheese. They also have a nice little wine bar. read more

Terrific food. Terrific service. A treasure way out in B.F.Egypt (no joke, it's in a part of Magnolia known as "Egypt"). We were introduced to the restaurant by some friends that live up in Magnolia and I'm so glad they did. It takes us almost an hour to drive there from where we live, and it is always worth it. read more

What a WONDERFUL place!! We've just moved to the area 3 months ago. First went here for dinner and it was fantastic!! This morning we go for breakfast. It was a short 15 minute wait but well worth it!! I had the eggs Benedict with potatoes and my boyfriend had the Migas...both were fresh and fantastic! The wait staff are extremely attentive and on the ball ! Also the hot cocoa was the best I've ever had! We can't wait to go back over and over and over! read more

Food was very good but not worth the prices! Waitstaff all seemed young and inexperienced.

The atmosphere is really cute and homey and the staff is very nice. However, the food is incredibly mediocre. If they put just a little more effort into cooking and presenting the food, it would be much better. read more

I've been coming to this restaurant now with my family for over 11 years. You will not beat the quality and service around. The unique menu is like no other in town. The atmosphere is of the feeling of family. read more

Love this place! Nice family atmosphere, we live in the area and eat there often. Breakfast is great! I love their breakfast tacos and the coffee is amazing...I know that seems weird. I think my favorite dish is between the chicken pot pie and the pot roast. I also have to say that my children love one of the bus "boys". I can not think of his name to save my life! But he always makes an effort to say hello to our kids and it such a sweet man. He is just the cherry on top of this nice little cafe. read more

Not really a café, but I suppose "Eden Family Sit-Down Dining" is a little long for a standard sign. The food was excellent and there was plenty of it, without there being so much I needed a doggy bag. Dessert was also good and featured a 3-inch New York style cheesecake that was to die for. My intention had been to eat some and save the rest for later, but, like so many good intentions, that one disappeared in a contented sigh within seconds. The service was prompt, courteous and friendly, but, really, if you want more from a waiter than courteous and friendly promptness, you probably need to visit your mom, more. read more

Long-time satisfied customer but today I ordered the salmon, that I've ordered and loved for years, but what I got today was unsatisfactory. When I saw it I thought it was a grilled chicken breast, thin and dry. I sent it back but was brought the same thing. I sent that back and left. Before leaving I ask the server about it and I was told the management changed the type of salmon the restaurant serves. It was nothing like the plump, juicy and flaky salmon I've been served so many times before. Please bring back the quality product. read more

A restaurant to please everyone in the family. The menu has such a wide variety my whole family was pleased. The service was great and the helping are huge! We will be back for sure. read more

First time at restaurant. Ordered the lasagna. It was Very Meaty, but the hamburger meat was not in a tomato sauce, The hamburger meat was just layered with everything else. It was not terrible but I mostly tasted hamburger meat. The place was packed. So maybe this is just a version my taste buds didn't know how to handle? read more

I love their BLT & Sweet Potato. Their pasta are good. I also like that they have free mints. The staff are friendly. Great service. Definitely coming back. read more

Great food and wonderful service. I've yet to order anything of bad taste on the menu. Wonderful coffees and lattes as well. Love this place for brunch. read more

I've come here a total of two times. Great breakfast food, can't go wrong with it. But the staff SUCKS. The first waiter I had wanted to rush our orders and get us out of the restaurant as fast as she possibly could. The second waiter told us we would have to wait 20 minutes for the chefs to start making a cheeseburger because lunch is served at 11...I shouldn't have to wait 20 minutes for you to make my order, that's terrible customer service. You are holding my plans back not 5-10 minutes but 20 minutes. And it's gonna take another 20 minutes for you to make my burger... the customer is always right and in this case I'm not asking for much. Get waiters that have brains and common sense. read more

Met my date here and was immediately impressed with the ambiance, cozy but not stuffy. She had the blackened Tilapia and I had the Cajun Pasta. Both dishes were excellent as well as the service. Enjoy a romantic evening and dine in a pleasurable atmosphere and savor some of the most well prepared food you have ever eaten. You will come back! read more

GREAT VIBE! By far and away the best restaurant in Magnolia or the North Western part of The Woodlands. Sterling Ridge,May Valley etc. Great customer service great vibe!!!! Been twice have had the chicken marsala, Cuban forgot the mustard:{ and chicken alfredo. My sweetheart is a chicken alfredo obsessed food "junkie" she says its the best in the area. For me everything was good,consistent and everyone in the place was smiling. I really wish there was more restaurants that were like this in the Magnolia area. CHECK IT OUT! read more

This place is DELICIOUS! Every time I come here, I get something different, and every time, the food is amazing. The atmosphere is as great as the service. And, the story behind the family who started Eden Cafe is amazing. Simply put, everything about this place is amazing! read more

Eden Cafe is a great place to get a "home cooked" meal without feeling like you just had a greasy, fattening meal at a restaurant. Their Cuban Ropa Vieja and Chicken Marsala are my two favorite dishes. Both so satisfying and full of flavor. Additionally, I like that they have different specials daily on a rotating weekly menu and half off bottles of wine on Monday and Wednesday. The wines by the glass offers are yummy too-try the Tinto Negro Malbec with the Ropa Vieja (delish!). My only qualm is they are not open on Sunday (though I understand it's for religious reasons) and sometimes their side vegetable items are undercooked. We eat here often, you should too. P.S. This is a great family-friendly restaurant. read more

This is a locally owned establishment that is really a treat to eat at. This is another case where I wish yelp had half stars - as I would give them a 4.5. I can't quite tilt it to a five, but they're close. It's certainly very, very good "high end comfort food," and beats the chains in this genre hands down. They've got a VERY good selection of wines by the glass, which they are more than happy to provide you samples of to ensure you find the glass that is most to your liking. They have excellent specials and a competent wait staff that isn't afraid to steer you away from a dish if they think it may not be your thing when you describe what you are wanting. This is a quality that you won't find in the staff at many restaurants - and it's appreciated. I also respect the fact that they close on Sunday to spend family time. Given all of this, it's a definite "regular" on our rotation and one that's worth taking note of if you happen to be in the Magnolia area. read more

My sister and I love the atmosphere at Eden Cafe. From the front door hostess to the prompt service we received from our waitress - Top notch restaurant. The chicken Marsalis is by far the best I have ever had. Tender, moist and so tasty. The portion was good size I had enough to share. Will definitely come back soon. read more

WE LOVE EDEN! Their crab salad will seriously allow you to die happy. We always get a side of their jalapeño cream corn and use it as an appetizer dip. It's delicious! Brunch is fabulous and the customer service is superb. It's a family favorite all around! read more

Don't come here. You'll sit there for hours without service and without food. The food isn't even that good and the service sucks so bad. Don't come here!!!!!! read more

Try breakfast on the weekends! The quiche is amazing. The weekly half priced wine days are my favorite. Alma has been our server the last several times and she is so amazing. Can't say enough good things about the food and service. read more

This place is hit or miss. Usually a miss, unless you order the chicken pot pie, or something else that is a standard on their menu. This is the third time in a row that what was ordered was not delivered. Today it was a "seafood fondue". What was delivered was mushy, over-cooked seafood in what can be best described as a kind of espagnole sauce broiled with cheese. This was after 40 minutes of waiting for the food. Wine was good though. Too bad I couldn't enjoy it because I didn't want to drink on an empty stomach. Waitress offered no condolence except telling me "she spoke to the manager". Manager never approached. Typical as that happened the last time as well. read more

Love this place!! Fantastic food, daily specials and great wine selection. The owners take great care to make this a place to come again and again. read more

This place is amazing! Loved the service and loved the food. My husband and I split the chopped steak and hot two salads and it was all so delicious! Wished I lived closer. We will definitely be back! Highly recommend! read more

We have dinner at Eden at least once a week and it never disappoints! Highly recommend this restaurant! The staff is friendly and efficient. Daily specials are really good! read more

Great food and always friendly service! I have loved everything I have eaten at Eden Cafe!

I have been esting at this restaurant for many years. This is one of my favorite places to eat. Love the fettuccine alfredo with chicken is wonderfully delicious. read more

Good food and service. Have tried multiple dinner dishes and love them all. They serve a nice amount of food, so you can split dishes with an added side or take some home. read more

We went for lunch today. I had the Cajun pasta and my kids had the kids quesadillas with plantains and my husband had the beef tacos. I loved my Cajun pasta so much. It was tasty yet not too salty. The only thing I would have wished was some bread to go with it. The kids finished their meals so that speaks for itself it was good. My picky husband didn't like his taco much. He said it was ok. Unfortunately I was enjoying my pasta too much to taste his food and comment on it. The waitress was kind and the food came on time. We didn't have to wait long. We will definitely go back. read more

Phenomenal. Small town feel with downtown quality. My son and I split the country fried steak with mashed pots. My daughter's mac & cheese was like something my mother would make (she's a great cook by the way). Remarkably friendly and efficient staff. If you get the Toll House pie, be sure to order coffee or milk. The crust was a tad dry. Otherwise highly recommended. read more

The food here far exceeds what you might expect when walking in for the first time. Though the ambiance can be a bit boisterous sometimes, much like a large family gathering, the friendly staff, and occasionally the owner (Mr. Ulises), are quick to make you feel like....well, family. The food is prepared expertly, and is uncommonly delicious given the affordability. I highly recommend the fish tacos! read more

We ate here for the first time last night. My husband and I were in the area and looked to Yelp to see where we should go. Based on ratings we chose Eden Cafe. From beginning to the end it was a great experience. Food was excellent, service was excellent. The only negative was the iced tea I ordered tasted old, so I switched it out for a soda. But other than that, everything was great. I definitely recommend. read more

See all

Charming breakfast/lunch cafe with delicious food. The Eden skillet is my families favorite along with the BLT and some of the rotating breakfast pastries. The owner and staff are so personable and remember us after just a couple visits. Also, if you let them know you are a first time guest they will let you have a free desert! read more

Live this place! It's a regular on our after church Sunday lunch list! They never disappoint!

Great cafe offering a variety of dishes. This place can get pretty packed during lunch so it's best to come early or late. They don't have a printed kids menu but our server recited about 8 dishes and my daughter ordered the spaghetti with meatball and my son had chicken tenders and fries. My husband had the lasagna and I had the Cuban Ropa Vieja. Portions are huge and prices are fair. Everything we ordered was yummy, flavorful, nice and hot. I didn't have room for dessert but stilled ordered 6 beignets. I mean, how do you pass up straight out of the fryer, covered in powdered sugar beignets. They were everything I hoped. You have to check out this place if you are in the area! read more

We drove about 45 minutes to try this place, and it was worth it! The service was great. The menu has something for everyone. And the prices are reasonable read more

So delicious! Very diverse menu and everything I have had thus far is delicious. Moms meatloaf, chicken piccata and the spinach dip are my faves! I would suggest this place to anyone and everyone!!!!! read more
