    We love Frank's!!! We try to come here everytime we visit family in Htown! We leave very satisfied, full and ready for naps Food was great, bacon was crispy from start to finish. Our waitress was nice and attentive, we sat, ate and left. Can't wait to be back next time :) :)

    Franks signature breakfast with fried fish grits and biscuits.

    Large large portions at a very reasonable price. A late Tuesday breakfast was still crowded, and it maintained that way as the hour turned into lunch. It has a classic diner atmosphere although the bar counter area isn't very large so there are not much seating there. Staff is very friendly, efficient, and attentive. Ordered the Frank's signature breakfast with fish and was shocked to get two large fillets. I ate everything but had to additionally season the food, especially the grits. Luckily, there was a large bottle of hot sauce at the table.

    Delicious breakfast, decent wait time. I did witness the cook texting on his phone with the same gloves he was cooking and picking up pancakes with but other than that everything was fine. It's a diner type of place and a Houston staple.

    Good fast service, casual ambiance and good home style food. Good coffee. Clean establishment. Hadn't been here in a while but it's still the same. Reasonable prices. Hole in the wall that's been here forever. I do recommend trying them out.

    It's old...who cares. Was clean and the waitstaff was attentive. Food was exactly what it's supposed to be. Not the best sweet tea tho. It was perfect, exactly what we expected and wanted. Thanks Frank! We will be back.

    Only missing waffle lol

    I really liked this place, from the service, to the open grill where you can watch the food getting prepared, and the chicken wings were crispy and big. Hash browns were the bomb. I think the waffle was good but the texture was a little mushy, not sure if it was undercooked or just the way the batter is. Anyway, definitely would return if in Houston again.

    A friend visiting from out of town is really into diners. During his stay, I chose the vegan option of hash browns and black coffee most days. Meanwhile, my friend explored the entire menu and had no complaints about anything. Even when the diner was busy, the service was fast and friendly; my coffee cup was never empty. It was the kind of diner experience you would expect, reminiscent of visits with your grandparents--done right.

    France would be sad this is supposed to be French toast

    Server was fantastic the food was terrible I ordered crispy hash browns and I got barely cooked hash browns. Floor manager came by and said oh we're too busy to make them crispy. The bacon tasted good but it looked like it was cooked 3 days ahead they don't have real butter it's just oil on the grits everything was bad. The French toast was completely floppy and soggy

    Food 10/10 Service 10/10 Ambiance- Clean. You're not going for the esthetic...you're going for the food down home breakfast. This place is always consistent. The only thing they need to work on is their sweet tea. They're fried and grill pork chops, chicken wings, cheese eggs, hasbrowns and French toast are EVERYTHING. If your grandma can cook well...just imagine if your grandma's cooking and Waffle House had a baby, it would be called Frank's Grill

    Great mom and pop breakfast spot. Extremely affordable and nice portion sizes. Definitely would come back!

    Chicken and waffles, hash browns, pork chops, bacon, biscuits(homemade)
    Rachel D.

    Action seats on a Saturday morning! Got to sit at the bar and watch the staff handle order after order. We ordered everything that we could think of because we didn't want to miss out on a good bite! Chicken and waffles, biscuits, eggs, bacon....and hashbrowns from the huge mound on the flattop that are perfectly cooked. Every bite had us going back for more despite full bellies . The staff was super friendly and checked in often despite the busy restaurant. While we didn't try the WHOLE menu like we would have wanted, we will definitely be back to try the breakfast tacos, French toast, and omelettes that looked amazing while being cooked!

The meatballs and tomato sauce were both solid and I loved the toasted bread on the side. As for the truffle deviled eggs, that's something you don't see often on the menu! The truffle flavor/aroma was solid and the fresh chips on top were nice. The cheeseburger was pretty good and I enjoyed all the veggies that came with! Aside from that, the restaurant had a neat interior/decorations and good service!

So as I have said before it's a lot of fun to try these out when one of these bookmarked breweries can finally get tried out. Karbach Brewing was one of these breweries that were on this lengthy but steadily diminishing brewery list of mine. The beer that we had was a Kölsch beer by the name of Love Street. The flavor features to enjoy with this kölsch is a naturally sweet flavor along with a clean presence as well as a finish. The beer gives a slight warming feeling and is smooth in body. It's also very light bodied so not out of the realm of possibility of having more than one while hanging out. A very solid beer overall.

I wanted a pork chop or steak and saw this place and their pork chop. It looked great online. When I get there I ate at the bar. It was a coffee bar. Again- I should have done more research. So I was given a menu then I ordered the pork shop. And then the waiter said is that I and proceeded to give me my total. Another thing I have researched. It's counter service. Then I said I just wanted water. I waited for it and he said we have to help ourselves to drinks (later). So ok. Fine. Then later he told me they were out of pork chops. So I got the short ribs with the grits. The ribs were tender. They were tasty. The grits were good. The veg was good as well. I'd give the food a 4 but I would think, since they make their own pastries, they would make a bread to serve with dinner! But no bread so that drops it down a point or 2. I had ordered (pre-paid) for the bread pudding. It was good, legit bread pudding. The place itself is a coffee bar so it looks and acts like a coffee bar. Now to the coffee bar. Someone there ordered and espresso drink. They don't have a knock box and so he proceeded to knock out the very old puck into a trash can under the sink then rinsed it. Then the shot glass looked like it had been there unrinsed from the morning. Then as he proceeded to make the espresso- he had to fill the espresso machine (with tap water). Last- it was Aerosmith on repeat. I like them as much as the next guy, but how about some variety. I guess if I lived in the area I might go back to try their breakfast. Anyway- I ubered there and I wish now I would have just eaten at the hotel bar.

    I went to Millie's Kitchen & Cocktails on a Saturday morning for brunch with my wife and our…read moretoddler. Millie's is a popular neighborhood seafood restaurant in Houston's Oak Forest area, known for Southern and coastal-inspired dishes, craft cocktails, and being genuinely family-friendly. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, including patios and a dedicated play area for kids, which already sets them apart. They have private parking spots out front and a large outdoor patio facing the street. We walked in without a reservation and were seated right away. They brought out a high-chair for our son immediately. Inside, the restaurant was busy, but it was a colder morning so the front patio wasn't being used much. They also have a separate backyard patio with a turfed, enclosed area where kids can safely play, which is a huge plus for families. We ordered from the brunch menu. [BRUNCH] +Lobster Roll for $38 - Maine lobster poached in butter, served in a brioche-style lobster bun with fries. My wife ordered this with fries, and I ordered the same dish with a Caesar salad. This lobster roll was excellent. They served the lobster folded into thick Texas toast and brought extra butter on the side. Easily one of the best lobster rolls I've had. It's definitely pricey, but absolutely worth it as an occasional splurge. The fries and salad were good, but the lobster roll completely stole the show. - 5/5 [KID'S MENU] +Basket of Fried Shrimp for $7 - Served with fries or fruit. My son didn't eat much of the shrimp, but I thought it was solid. He ate all the fruit. He had already eaten at home, so hunger may have been a factor. For the price, this was perfectly fine. - 4/5 Overall, Millie's Kitchen & Cocktails really impressed me. The lobster roll alone is worth returning for, and now that I've seen how seafood-forward the menu is, I'm excited to try more dishes on future visits. Add in the family-friendly setup, outdoor play space, and smooth service, and this is a place I'll gladly come back to for brunch (and more)!

Because we had a fairly large party, we called ahead to either reserve a table or at least give the restaurant a heads-up that we would be coming. The person who answered the phone (I believe her name was Jessica) repeatedly hung up on us and told us that a reservation wasn't necessary. When we arrived, we were informed that the restaurant was fully booked and that the wait would be about 45 minutes. There was quite a bit of back-and-forth with the host staff, and while I'm not sure if they were new, their demeanor and handling of the situation did not leave a good first impression. Having worked in restaurants myself, I understand how hectic things can get during busy hours. However, the front-of-house staff seemed disorganized and largely indifferent to the situation. We asked if we could be seated outside, where the majority of the tables appeared to be available, and were told the wait would be about 15 minutes, which was completely reasonable if they needed some time to prepare. Thankfully, our servers went above and beyond and somehow managed to work some magic to get us seated inside. Their professionalism, attentiveness, and willingness to help turned what started as a frustrating experience into a much better one. They were the highlight of our visit (along with the food and drinks)
