    Chicken Pesto Chicken Quinoa Bowl
    Jarek M.

    Good breakfast, good mood. Service and atmosphere: This is clean and well organised restaurant with plenty of room for many guests. The staff were friendly and polite which made the service and atmosphere very enjoyable. Food and drinks: The menu was well structured. It was easy to read it and make quick food choices, which were pretty good I must say. I appreciated that you can choose dishes made with locally sourced and organic ingredients. I could definitely taste the quality of produce used. I opted for pesto bowl with quinoa, veggies, grilled chicken and added eggs. I was not disappointed. You have to try their fair trade coffee. They also offer alcoholic beverages. Pricing: $$ not overpriced and well worth it.

    First Watch Clear Lake was packed this holiday Friday morning and we did have a little wait to get our table. It took a while for our waiter to take our drink orders and it seemed like a while before the drinks came out. We ordered the Honey Butter Biscuit Bites for an appetizer. We loved them especially the honey butter. For our entrees we ordered the Market Hash which was excellent and the Lemon Ricotta pancakes also delicious. I had the Tri-Athlete which I loved. My wife did not like her Salmon and Veggie Fritatta and felt the eggs were overcooked. My daughter's Healthy Turkey had no turkey in the omelette. I also ordered the Purple Haze to drink which was nice and refreshing. Overall the food was okay, but the mistake on the turkey was disappointing. They did bring out a separate side of turkey when we told them to make up for the error. This was the first time we had a bad experience at First Watch but it soured our taste for that place.

    I'll always choose this location over any other I have been to. The customer services is top tier! Food is amazing! Highly recommend this place. I always go for the biscuits and gravy, SO GOOD!!!

    Bacado Omelette
    Kelley N.

    First time reviewing, but have been here a couple of times before. Bacado- great protein dish, just not a lot of flavor. However, the potatoes are always Eggs Benedict was good, but not great. The new thing we tried was the lemon iced cinnamon roll. Super stingy on the icing, and my preference is gooey, soft cinnamon roll. This was crisp on outside and not gooey on inside. Their juices are really good, and the superfood bowl is excellent, if looking for a healthier brekkie. Service is always iffy here, we have sat for 15 minutes until someone comes for our drink order. Greatest thing is they ALWAYS have superb music playing, not the typical stuff.

    Farm Stand Breakfast Tacos
    Sebastian C.

    It was my last morning in Texas before heading back home and we were looking for a good looking breakfast joint and this place was our first and only choice. We arrived closer to noon and the restaurant was less than half full but the hostess asked for the name and number to enter me into the waitlist but was seated right away. Here's what I ordered for myself: **Farm Stand Breakfast Tacos: Delicious! Generally not a huge fan of chorizo but the tacos were amazing! The addition of fresh avocado slices and their housemade pico de gallo was the perfect touch! The beans on the side were also very delicious! (5/5) **Bob's Red Mill Buttered Grits: Not the best grits I've ever had but certainly not the worst. (3/5) Forgot the name of our server but the guy was amazing. He checked up on us very often and provided excellent service!

    Very fast service. Nice popular brunch area. Food was pretty good. The biscuits and gravy was good, $12.99

    First Watch in Houston, Texas (Clear Lake).
    Andrew L.

    First Watch was absolutely wonderful. The omelettes and coffee are phenomenal. This is my favorite place in Clear Lake for brunch (by far). The servers are always wonderful at First Watch. Marisa took unbelievable care of us today and was professional and super helpful to our group members who had never been to eat here before. The ambiance is relaxing and busy (but not too loud or chaotic). I'll definitely be back here soon.

    Get the pumpkin pancake! So good! Great service as well. We always enjoy our visits here. Thanks first watch!

    Eggs Benedict first time at the first watch
    Taylor M.

    The food is ok. Been here quite a few times. Seems over priced for what it is. The seats a lot uncomfortable. The service is ok. Not my favorite place. I'm sure I'll be back but I can think of a few places that are less expensive and taste better

    First time trying this and loved it

    Tifa showed up on my Yelp feed not too long ago about a week after I had been searching for a…read morechocolatier in my area. At the time I drove into Houston to find dark chocolates so I was thrilled to see Tifa had opened up nearby and I bookmarked it to try out as soon as I had a chance. My birthday is today so as a treat to myself I grabbed my cousin and she came with me to try out Tifa after dinner. It was perfect. Plenty of parking as it's near a bunch of great dining spots. It's bright and smells amazing inside and you're greeted warmly with kind words and the biggest most beautiful smile from the owner as you walk in. I was overwhelmed from viewing all the amazing things they had on their website so I went in with a game plan, chocolates/truffles only and taste test the gelato. My cousin surprised me by buying my 7-piece chocolate box which included an eggnog dark chocolate truffle, peppermint bark chocolate, dark chocolate pumpkin, wild strawberry dark chocolate, tiramisu dark chocolate, raspberry dark chocolate, and an amaretto milk chocolate. I also grabbed an Element rose cardamom dark chocolate bar. The owner securely kept our chocolates for us at the register and we moved forward to join the gelato line to try all the gelato samples we wanted. (There was no line at all when we first arrived I should add). I tried several of the gelatos. All were amazing. My favorites were the stracciatella and Casablanca bloom. My oh my, they each had the perfect and most incredible blend of flavors. Their lemon gelato was also so refreshing. I'll definitely be back to buy a scoop of each and perhaps with some drinking chocolate over them. I've gotta try that out since I've never had it before. They have so many ways to flavor their drinking chocolates, you start with dark, milk or white chocolate and can add any of their wide assortment of flavors and believe me they have a very wide variety. They also have lattes and such as well. The staff was super kind and helpful. I wish I had caught their names so I could recognize them here but since I did not if you worked at Tifa around 9PM on Dec 13, 2025 huge kudos to you! You are great at your job and provided me and my cousin exceptional service! Much appreciated especially during the holiday season and a day before my birthday. I try to stay away from too much sugar but Tifa is a precious gem and is definitely a spot I'll return to again and again. Thanks so much Tifa staff and happy holidays!

    I was happy to see them busy for Sunday Brunch because I want great places to stay in business, but…read morethe wait was way shorter than other spots, even for our party of six, so best of both. The food was excellent, my adult kids got the Turkish Breakfast x2 and we all got a taste, while my wife and I split a Garden Omelette, because they are that big. Everyone got a different beverage from Turkish Coffee and Cafe Americano to Lattes and tea. Service was friendly snd genuinely helpful. It's an order-at-the-counter place but they still paid attention to us after we were seated, so nothing was lost in that experience. Flavor was the main experience. Everything had its own character and I can't wait to explore more of their offerings. Our table also included a waffle dish and a crepe dish, and nobody was disappointed in their choice. Heads up that the bacon is turkey bacon I believe to keep the kitchen Halal, but you don't go here to replicate Cracker Barrel, this is a different type of choice that opens up your understanding of brunch.

I got a salted caramel cream cold brew ($4.99 for a small) and a Dubai crepe ($16.99). The value is okay, comparable with other places in the area. It took about 10 minutes for my food to come out. The coffee was pretty good but not memorable. The Dubai crepe was tasty but not as chocolatey as expected. The chocolate sauce on top is all the chocolate in the dish. The filling is just pistachio/kadayif and strawberries. Though the filling was crunchy and the strawberries were fresh, the crepe just didn't feel as indulgent as I'd hoped because of the relatively little chocolate.

Our server SAL was top notch, explained everything on the menu that I drilled him about - really painted a picture of what the items was all about, helped me with making a selection! Give that kid a Gold Star - he is my server for life at Red OAK. He took care of us with a smile and quick service, what a shining star they got when they hired him! Now for the food - mercy is all I can say - the biscuits were out of this world - flaky, fluffy and fabulous! I got the Breakfast special and everything on the plate was perfect - the bacon was nice and crisp, hash browns were golden and egg really over easy - cooked to perfection. THE Pancakes - eyes rolling back in head - the biggest, fluffy golden brown things you have every seen and the syrup came in a glass carafe that warm syrup was an extra special touch. The coffee was their own brand and the flavors were Pecan and Cinnamon, very smooth, and very hot and refilled often. Do yourself a favor and go to Red Oak Cafe in League City on Main Street and ask for Sal and get ready for a great expericence and excellent food and service! I live in Woodlands Tx and will drive 60 miles again to eat at this place!

My friend ask for some Tabasco or hot sauce and they brought him something in a cup that appeared to have soy sauce in it. Again I will say this : highly overpriced, mediocre food and very poor service. i've never written a review like this in my entire life. But I truly felt obliged to say that this is a place that I will never bother to go to again.

    The place we were going to eat in Galveston was too close to the cruise ship loading zone and…read moretraffic was bumper-to-bumper, so Google recommended this as a place on our way back to the airport. Glad it did! First, the wait time - we showed up on a Sunday morning, right after some kind of race in the area. They told us the wait would be about 45 minutes to an hour, and we waited 55 minutes. No big deal - at least their estimate was accurate. But beware if you're on a time crunch on a weekend at brunch time :) Great hash! I had CHRISTINA'S TAMALE CAKES (Benedict), and loved it. It was top two of my meals in this visit to Texas. The carnitas were flavorful, the poached eggs were perfect, the corn bread base on the tamale wrapper was awesome. If I could improve the dish - and that would be hard to do - I would ask for a bit more of that delicious green chile Hollandaise sauce on top, which I would buy by the jug if I could. The smashed potatoes were excellent - very well seasoned and oiled and salty to go with the sweet from my main dish. My companion loved her hash dish and I scooped up some of her sauce to eat the last few bites of my cornbread. Loudness - This place was LOUD. They had a DJ spinning some great music choices - but I couldn't really converse with my wife during breakfast. I am well aware that I sound old and crotchety. I love the clubs - but this was like being in a club during brunch. Hygiene - The hostess at the front desk station was on her phone the entire 55 minutes we were waiting. When I asked her if I could get a Bloody Mary to save me from boredom during the wait - she told me to hang on. Then she sat on her phone and talked and texted for another 5 minutes or so. My wife dropped a pair of tongs on the floor from the Bloody Mary bar. Another lady picked them up, and told the lady behind the station that it had fallen on the floor. She didn't wash it - she just stuck them back in the jar where people are grabbing the food for their Bloody Marys. In hindsight - I don't know if I would have taken advantage of the endless toppings on the bloody Mary bar.
