Happy hour deal
Marissa G.

Best happy hour I've seen in a while! Food is delicious. Texas Bedrolls with the horseradish sauce was sooo good. The service was efficient. Very chill on an early Friday afternoon sat outside. New spot for us!

Food was delicious! We tried nothing but apps because it was an apps kinda night...did not disappoint. Shrimp were delicious, bacon cooked perfect, grilled onion...very tasty! Mac & cheese balls w/brisket...need I say more? Yum! We ordered the pretzel...lemme tell I don't live in Cypress but willing to drive to Cypress for this damn pretzel, it was that good! Stuffed tater tots were very good, just wished there were more! We were expecting a basket of messy greasy goodness and got a more refined version, but still delicious! Beer was great, nice and cold...Grace was our bar tender and she was awesome...let us try samples before making our selections on beer. She made us her Grace special original Pixie shots...did not disappoint! Ambiance was laid back...sat at the bar and enjoyed live band across the way right after. Will definitely be back...if for nothing else, that pretzel!

This place is loaded with atmosphere and I felt good walking in. Now this might sound a bit crazy, but I love picking up my cutlery and finding that it actually has some heft to it, and that's what I got with my knife and fork. LOL Mr. Picky really liked his shrimp tacos and I thought that his chili rice and black beans were really excellent when I stole bites off of his plate. I ordered the stuffed chicken fried chicken and was very pleasantly surprised. They substituted sides for me so I had green beans (very fresh and flavorful) and onion rings with it. Although I'm not usually a lover of white meat chicken, I actually found this to be moist enough to eat, I liked the Gouda stuffed inside and the outer coating was fried beautifully crisp. I particularly liked the gravy that they used and asked for extra so if you order this do the same. It had a nice peppery aftertaste and I asked if it was the same gravy that they use on their chicken fried steak. It is. For dessert we shared the sooapilla, strawberry and whipped pie thing, and bread pudding. Hands down, the moist warm bread pudding with ice-cream was by far the best. Overall, this was an enjoyable dining experience and we'll definitely plan on heading back. (Brunch on Sundays only.). Based on dining, it should be rated higher than a "3.6" so give it a shot when you're in the mood for some down-home cooking.

Really enjoyed lunch at Frio. Stellar service by Steve! He really was the highlight of our visit. Very attentive and food was prompt. Hamburger was grilled exactly as ordered. Chicken strips were perfect as was Caesar salad and yummy Mac n Cheese. We had some littles with us so loved the outdoor play area. It was a little early for a cold brew but it appeared this would be a fun night spot as well. Overall great service, strong menu and fun!

The food and service have been great each time we come here. The atmosphere is very comfortable and spaced out so that you don't feel like you are sitting at the other table next to you.

Okay maybe it isn't a solid 5, but it is a lot better than a 3.7! This restaurant is sooo Texas. It is quirky. Fried pickles and chicken fried steak sandwiches, a dessert called the Texas State Fair with fried oreos twinkies and snickers bars, and mystery cans of beer for $2.50! In these days of corporate similitude I have to salute a restaurant who will deep fry a twinky or two. Service was excellent. Mystery beer was "three on the tree lager" out of Blanco TX. They built it to look rustic.

The Barn is one of those local spots that just gets it right. We went for Singo Bingo one night and…read morehonestly had more fun than we expected. It's like bingo and a sing-along had a really good time together. The energy in the room was great, everyone was into it, and the whole place had that laid-back, friendly vibe that makes you want to stay longer than you planned. The crowd was fun, the staff was welcoming, and the atmosphere felt very "local hangout" in the best way. It's the kind of place where you can show up with friends, laugh way too much, and leave already planning your next visit. If you're looking for a low-key night out that's actually entertaining, Singo Bingo at The Barn is absolutely worth checking out. Definitely one of the most fun nights I've had in a while.

Came here for a halloween party and to catch a band we love the Spicoli's. Sadly this place made it…read morea problem and an exspensive one at that. First they shut down their parking lot, and then started selling tickets. So if you bought a ticket that got you into the parking lot. However, you needed to buy a second ticket to get in to see the band, or you could just hang out in thier parking lot. Heres is where it gets worse. Since they shut down thier parking lot You had to park next door at the chruch. Which gladly charged $15. Now I only bought the first ticket because my girlfriend bought my second ticket. I did hear another patron say it cost her $70 and she ubered there so she didn't pay for the parking. I think we will not be returning to this establishment.

This place is…read moreexactly what you hope it will be when you walk in, good old-fashioned country decor and amazing food. There are even some healthy options with blasts of flavor in every bite. The grilled chicken had SO much flavor and the green bacon, flavored green beans were some of my favorites. I managed to restrain myself and not order the dessert but completely regretted it as the banana pudding looked freaking delicious. I will definitely come back to this restaurant when I'm in the area!

Over time, I have realized that Mia's Table always serves good food. Recently I visited this…read morelocation for the first time and realized this restaurant is a little smaller than the Gessner location that I frequent the most. 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.

The decor is really cool and gives the place a nice atmosphere. I also liked the menu because some of the names are pretty funny and definitely make you look twice. Overall, this is a good spot to come grab a few drinks, hang out, and have a good time. I'd definitely come back, especially for karaoke night.

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.
