    Carrot cake pancakes
    Nancy R.

    The food was excellent today, but it's good all the time! Service was prompt, the server was so efficient and our server Bricia was nice and brought our food right away! [[HIGHLIGHT]]This restaurant is always packed on the weekends with inside and outside seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their carrot cake pancakes are always the best! Thank you for the great experience.

    Had to come in for my free birthday entree. We were able to get seated quickly on a Saturday afternoon which was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lots of seating and has patio seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was great in the beginning but once we of our food it seemed like we got forgotten about. Each time we'd try to get our server's attention he was rushing around helping his other tables so I ended up having to ask a different server for my grits I had ordered. By the time I got them the rest of my plate was cold, unfortunately. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I think that because of the location and perhaps the day the feel was just busy versus other locations I've been to have a more quaint, cozy feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I loved the million dollar breakfast sandwich! The bacon makes it, so I'm glad it really covered a layer next to the patty. The English muffin is very light and fresh, and is perfectly toasted. The portion is perfect for me with the salad. The Florentine Eggs Benedict is a classic go-to, and my friend loved it! We enjoyed the donut holes if you have a sweet tooth, because they're fall-apart soft in the sauce. The service was wonderful! The staff is friendly and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambiance is super casual.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We only waited about 10-15min at 1:00pm.

    So, this place newly opened up in the Cypress area and we were excited because we'd heard good…read morethings from the Magnolia location... not so much. The bad: The chili was weird, like it had a weird metallic taste, that then turned into a lingering spice. The spicy factor wasn't the problem, it was the weird taste. The queso wasn't queso. It was like a slightly heated cream cheese type mixture. So more of a cream cheese thick dip than a queso. They charged me $3-$4 for 3 bites of Mac and cheese (see photo)! Also, the breakfast I ordered was $14 and had dry French toast, way overcooked scrambled eggs, which became like egg nuggets and 2 skinny pieces of bacon, that I asked for crispy, but tasted burnt. The good: The Pulled Pork Sandwich was the star of the whole show. It has the Mac and cheese on top and we ended up ordering 2 to go. The drinks were so tasty and well made. Normal cocktail prices, but delicious every time. Our waiter/bartender was so nice and kind. Overall when food is concerned, would never go back. But if I wanted a good espresso martini or old fashioned and was in the area... I'd stop in.

However, it is tastefully decorated inside with a somewhat unique inclusion of area high school banners on the wall giving it a real local feel to this location. While most people sit inside they do offer an outdoor covered patio if you wish. I ordered the grilled chicken breast entree for $17. I chose mashed potatoes and gravy with green beans as it's 2 side dishes. After getting my drink at their self serve drink machine area, I found an empty table and only waited about 10 minutes for my food to arrive, The boneless chicken breasts had grill marks on them and were hot and tasty. They had good flavor. The green beans and mashed potatoes also were also very good tasting. With a slice of Texas Toast I enjoyed this meal and would order it again. Mia's Table is a winner. No wonder why it is so popular.

This place brings authentic Deep South flavors and hospitality straight to Texas, and every single bite reminded me of home-cooked meals from down South. The signature chicken tenders were crispy on the outside, juicy and tender inside, and seasoned to perfection, easily some of the best I've had anywhere. Paired with their seasoned dirty rice, their fluffy, buttery biscuits and perfectly seasoned french fries, it was a match made in heaven. I also had to try the famous Bo Berry biscuit, and it did not disappoint, warm, sweet, bursting with blueberries and that classic glaze that makes it impossible to stop at just one. Of course, no Southern meal is complete without a tall cup of sweet tea, and theirs was exactly what I hoped for: strong, refreshing, and perfectly sweetened like grandma made it. The portions are generous, the food is fresh and full of flavor, and the whole experience felt like a warm Southern welcome. If you're looking for that genuine Deep South taste without leaving Texas, Streets Chicken is the spot. Highly recommend. ! I'll definitely be back for more! Rod Gray Cypress, TX

My wife and I were sharing and she settled on the Steak Biscuit breakfast sandwich because she'd heard it tastes like the old Grandy's steak biscuit (I don't remember ever eating at Grandy's). We ordered on the app and picked up in the drive thru. The attendant was friendly and told us to pull up to the stop sign to wait for fresh food. The Steak Biscuit and Bo-Tato Rounds came out hot. I liked the biscuit, but the steak was too thin and got lost. My wife said, "It kind of tastes like Grandy's, but Grandy's was better," it has to have been 40 years since she's eaten there. The real star for me was the Bo-Tato Rounds! I would go back just for those. They were hot, flaky and just greasy enough to have that forbidden "it's bad for you" tater bliss!

I'm a fan of Jason's Deli and have been to a few locations on the East Coast and one other location in Texas. The Cypress location has a much smaller salad bar compared to other locations and the customer service is not as great. The staff behind the counter who prepared our food was not very helpful and the person who brought our food to our table was not friendly either. However, the really young gal at the ordering counter was a shining exception and made the experience much better. She was really polite, friendly, and helpful. She was juggling dine-in orders, take-out orders, and delivery orders all while helping customers with their drinks and questions. My favorite sandwich on the menu is the Wild Salmon-Wich. It's made with wild-caught Alaskan Sockeye Salmon. It's a rare treat to find restaurants offering wild-caught Salmon in a sandwich. Plus, at a reasonable price. The sandwich comes with your choice of either potato chops or blue tortilla chips on the side. They also have a Build Your Own Sandwich option, where you can pick your own meats, spreads, bread, and cheese. Tuna Salad with egg is one of the meat choices for those who are pescatarian. There's also a vegetarian sandwich option, the Caprese Panini, which is simple but tasty. The restaurant like many of its other locations has a spacious, open area with numerous tables, including booth seating. However, some of the tables were uncleaned from the moment we arrived until we left. I hope management takes steps to improve both cleanliness and customer service. Despite this, I still think Jason's Deli is a great place to grab a quick lunch or dinner, especially if you're looking for a super casual yet comfortable dining experience.

When it showed up I was amazed by the large pile of food. As I began to eat though, I started to get disappointed. I cut into my fried egg expecting it to run all over my plate, but it seems like it was cooked somewhere between over medium and over hard. I was looking for tasting the hot honey, which appears to be under the dish as opposed to on top of it. I was looking forward to a soft fluffy biscuit, but it too was over hard. The Chicken was well cooked, a bit thin, and I'm not sure that the breading tasted anything more like Captain crunch than it did any other breading. However every time I cut into it the breading kind of just fell off into the gravy. The gravy and potatoes were redeeming, with good flavor gravy and well cooked potatoes. Overall, it wasn't bad, I ate it all, I just expected better for my $17.
