    Came here for sunday brunch with two of my friends and had a great time! Good food, good service, and loved how cozy this place felt. I haven't been in the cypress area in a long time and I am glad to see that this place is still going strong since I left! We all ordered orange mimosas as well as hot coffee to go with our meals. I got the Parma Skillet Hash, one friend got the Chimichanga, and my other friend got the Biscuits and Gravy, and we all shared the French Toast. All of our meals were very good! We all kind of shared each of our meals with each other and I think my favorite was the skillet hash and the biscuits and gravy. Next time, I would definitely ask for the potatoes to be crispier. Everything besides the potatoes needing to be crispier, was well seasoned, and well portioned. We all finished everything along with our coffee and mimosas. Overall, I will definitely be back whenever I am in the area again and needing my brunch fix. If you are going on a sunday, I highly recommend coming early or setting a reservation! I think we had to wait 45 minutes for a table but that wasn't a problem as we just walked around the boardwalk and talked while we waited.

    Brunch with lemon pancakes, bacon, and a cranberry mimosa.

    The brunch was amazing. The food was served quickly and was hot and delicious. The mimosa was a great option with multiple flavor choices available. I would definitely recommend.

    Turkey sandwich.

    As this was my first time here, I was a little bit disappointed. Upon arrival, we were told it would be a 10 minute wait to get a table. However, having worked industry before I noticed six tables were immediately open yet. We still had to wait 10 minutes to get a table. I attribute this to the younger staff who may be a little bit inexperienced. The food was nothing to write home about. As you can see from my photo, I had ordered my sandwich with no lettuce and no tomato and I basically got a lettuce and tomato sandwich with a little bit of turkey on it. Not the best. The soup, however, was amazing. The soup of the day was vegetable. My girlfriends food was also lackluster. She ordered the Gruyere and ham omelette, which was burned to a crisp on the outside rims, stacked high in the middle with the ham, and had a slice of cheese literally thrown on top of it. That wasn't fully melted. The eggs were completely overcooked and borderline inedible . The accompanying potatoes were actually very well prepared. Mimosas came with a very cheap champagne that you had to pour and mix yourself. This was OK because I like a lot more champagne than orange juice, but it seemed kind of cheap and a cop out. I'm not sure if they were just having an off day, but our waitress herself was very lovely and nice and accommodating. The staff were friendly, they just seem confused. I would give this a solid two stars for the first time out despite my 4 star upon check-in.

    CYPRESS, TX 77433 / CONTEMPORARY BREAKFAST / 03-29-24 / LUNCH +The vegetable soup was pretty good. +The little ones enjoyed the pancakes. +The Monterey Club sandwich was delicious. -The hash dish was overly salty. -One of entrees came out like 10-12 minutes after everyone else's dishes.

    Was taxed twice :( First was the individual items, second was the total. If it needs 85 characters....

    Good food, good vibe. Slow service. We got the Veggie burger which doesn't come with any fries, that was surprising to us. They don't serve any fries. So we got it with a bowl of tomato soup that was very yummy. Also got a plate of the Veggie omelette. Ordered the Morning Meditation juice without the ice so it came in a small 12-16oz? glass, lol. Juice is refrigerated, not sure if they make it in house?

    If I can give zero stars, I would. We came here last week with a big party. Everything was ok until it wasn't. I placed a to go order for family at home. They requested no bacon in the meal. Of course when I got home there was bacon in it. Called First Watch to tell them the order was wrong and they told me to come back in for them to remake it. so I drove back up there, they remake it, I get back home and now in the first bite is hair. Drove back up there, The manager tried to tell me it was from a cooking brush they use to clean the pans with. (Either way it's not edible). They gave me a $20 gift card, and no refund was issued or any sort of empathy for making us drive back and forth 3 times. So I gave them the benefit of the doubt and stopped by a week later, ordered the same thing to-go and get home to find bacon in the meal again. I drove back to First Watch and asked for a refund. I didn't even want them to remake it anymore. All the manager said was "I do apologize, I'll have your refund done by the end of the day". If I can give zero stars I would.

    This is not how this drink usually looks. Politely asked if she could remake. Whe she brought it back it was COMPLETELY RED.

    Food is amazing,no long wait. Very nice,affirmative about what I ordered,reassured me of my order.With a smile! Update after food served.. Michelle,let me give you a little advice on service. As a waitress your attitude and friendliness determines your tip. I'm a very cheerful giver. But when I asked for more red ,you argue with my SNL and tell her to stir it up. That we know,but looking at other customers beverages like the one we ordered. You were rude,impatient,inconsiderate,inhospitable and no sense of care for us 2 African American very successful ladies. The young man at the front(host) AMAZING,thank you. All I adored was may I get more red juice at the top,you seemed so frustrated as if we were bothering you. My profession was the food industry (GM) for 26 years. YOU DO NOT GO BACK AND FORTH WITH A CLIENT/CUSTOMER,EVER! I needed that drink,I wanted that drink. But I sent it back because you were being an a-hole when you brought it back with the glass being 85% red and the rest was orange. Why treat us this way. We were very professional,never rude to you. But one thing we must understand as food servers. "Every time that door opens,and you seat a guest,that is your check" No guest,no hours. Labor would be too high ,so please next time,just get it right please

    Turkey burger and asked for wheat bread instead. It came with a side and I got tomato basil soup.
    Esther C.

    I've only ordered breakfast here until today. I had a Turkey burger and asked for wheat bread. I didn't ask them too, but they grilled the bread and it was delicious! Also, their tomato basil soup is very good! I think their breakfast is good but their lunch items might be better. My husband ordered the breakfast taco and it was really good. Even the side of beans were good. The service was really efficient and my waitress was spot on. She was pleasant and everything came out hot and just right. We didn't wait that long for a Saturday to get our food, which I appreciated.

Thank you Mias Table for a Great Experience! -Santangelo B. Gonzales

    "Crispy Onion Rings + Classic Comfort Food" 02-06-26…read more This place came highly recommended by a coworker, and I must say, it was worth the risk of trying something new. My husband and I came for an early Friday evening dinner, and we were genuinely impressed. Customer service was good, not over the top, but definitely decent and pleasant. The atmosphere felt comfortable and inviting. They played a nice mix of music (blues, soul, Tejano, light rock, country, and more) at a mid-volume on the overhead speakers. There were also mounted flat-screens, but they weren't turned on, which I actually didn't mind. One of the coolest perks is the self-serve ice cream station, and the ice cream is delicious. It has that old-fashioned, rich vanilla flavor, like the 1950s when food tasted much better. On top of that, although not self-serve, they also have a "Shakes & Malts and Warm Cookies" station, which is such a fun touch. The dining area is large with plenty of seating options, (booths and tables), and everything looked clean and tidy. They also have a self-serve beverage station that was clean and well-stocked. Now for the best part: the food! Just a heads-up, this place believes in large portion sizes, and I'm not mad at it! I ordered the Mississippi Catfish Platter, and it was loaded. It came with 4 large catfish pieces, Texas toast, onion rings, and two sides. I chose the creamy whipped potatoes and coleslaw. My husband ordered the Mississippi Catfish with fried shrimp and French fries, and his plate also came with Texas toast and onion rings. I tasted one of his shrimp and it was delectable! OMG! My only complaint is that the fish could have been fried a little crispier with a little crunch to it. It was just too soft for my liking. Food Ratings: Mississippi Catfish Platter -- 4/5: Delicious flavor, but it wasn't crispy/crunchy--more soft than I expected Shrimp & Catfish Platter -- 4/5 Mia's Queso Dip -- 3/5 Mashed Potatoes -- 5/5: Thick consistency but still creamy Onion Rings -- 5/5: Cooked to perfection--crispy and crunchy Coleslaw -- 3/5: Not my favorite. It had more of a vinaigrette vibe, and I prefer a mayo-based, tangy slaw French Fries -- 3/5: Served hot, but nothing special Overall, I highly recommend Mia's Table if you're looking for simple comfort food without all the fancy extras. The atmosphere is chill and relaxing, perfect for unwinding after a long work week or for those lazy nights when you just don't feel like cooking.

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!
