After ordering our food, it took around 5-10 mins to get to the table and holy moly the portions are big! We ordered the chilaquiles, tres leches pancakes, and breakfast burrito, and each portion is entirely sharable. The interior is very nice and there are spots outside to take cute photos. I would say the only thing I didn't like was their strawberry horchata which I thought was wayy too sweet; however, I just took it to go which filled two (2) entire to-go cups and diluted it at home, making approx. three (3) servings TLDR: the food is great, horchata is a bit sweet, portions are large and sharable, and the atmosphere is trendy and cute!

Late post! 5 stars…read morebecause they accommodated my husband's request. LOOK FOR YOSI AND ORDER JERMAINE'S PINEAPPLE PANCAKES OR SHOW THIS PICTURE. IT'S NOT ON THE MENU BUT IT'S REALLY GOOD. NOT TOO SWEET, FLAVORFUL! I dont know how this happened but apparently, my husband and Yosi (one of the workers in Stacks) came up with this one of a kind pancake. It was super good! I dont even like pancakes nor pineapple. STACKS, GET THIS ON THE MENU! My husband and I cannot cook so this was awesome! 5 stars because they accommodated my husband and it seemed like everyone had a great time accommodating his request. We also had the 20pcs wings. Everyone loved the lemon pepper the best. We had their XXL ribs, it was dry.. but not taking off a star coz again, of hubby's pancake creation The clam chowder was good enough :) Anyway, all in all, we would go back just to order jermaine's pineapple pancakes . Thank u soooo much Yosi, thank u also to our server I forgot his name :( you were so awesome! Thanks everyone!

My group ordered the following: 1) Stacks German pancake. It is served with fresh strawberries, blueberries and bananas. It was delicious. It satisfied my craving but I have had better. 2) Stacks favorite omelette. Omelette filled with ham, bell pepper and cheese. It is served with hash brown and pancake. Delicious. Nice size portions. Good value. 3) Gluten free blueberry pancake with a side of eggs and sausage. This is served with blueberry compote. Also delicious and good value. We also had brewed coffee. The coffee was good. Service was great. Staff friendly and attentive. Interior decor is very homey. We will be back when we are in the area.

The last couple of times, portion sizes have gotten smaller and smaller. If it is a matter of training employees to fill up the boil to what it should be, then that is advisable. If it is a matter of inflation and the restaurant is trying to remain profitable, that's understandable. But then offer different sizes of bowls at different pricing. It makes the customer feel like they are being played when you charge the same but portions are completely inconsistent.

Excellent happy hour as drinks were $5 until 6 pm. They had food on the Happy Hour menu but since we planned to have dinner with the group, we decided to have drinks. There was a live band that sounded great but it was too loud to have conversations inside. When the group started showing up, we all went to the front patio where we were able to talk and mingle. We all continued having drinks because the conversations were so good with our high school friends. We ended up having a great night at Lincoln House and we'll be back to have dinner as we watch a band.

We came here tonight with a group of friends (our headcount kept changing: started at 12, ended up…read morewith 9) to celebrate a friend before she heads into surgery for breast cancer. I had hoped to be organized and make a reservation, but didn't have a final number until we arrived before dinner. When I called earlier, they suggested arriving early (which we did) and I'm so glad we listened. Emily, the host, was incredibly kind and patient with our chaos. Large, fluctuating parties aren't easy, especially with a wait, but she kept us informed, comfortable, and never made us feel like a burden. She even helped us store a cake before we were seated, which meant a lot for such a special night. Our server, Taylor, was just as amazing. She fully embraced the chaos with separate checks (I know...), and she handled it seamlessly and with a great attitude the entire time. The food and drinks were great, but Emily and Taylor are truly what made the experience what it was. They helped turn what could have been a stressful, emotional evening into something really meaningful and memorable. Such a great spot for a girls' night, especially when it's in a season of life like this one.

Last Saturday night had a change of plans and had to scramble to find another place to eat…read more Luckily, we remembered Frisella's Roastery, where we haven't eaten in at least a couple of years, and they were able to seat us. I had the 1/2 smoked/roasted chicken and my wife ordered the fish tacos. The chicken was perfectly cooked, the breast meat tender and juicy. The barbecue sauce they use is perfect for the dish. The beans were smoky and slightly spicy, a nice accompaniment for the chicken. My wife's fish tacos- white fish deep fried- was also very good. Almost a tempura type light batter and prep. We both ended up taking about 1/2 our dinners home as leftovers. I'm glad we remembered Frisella's. We will be going back soon.

We stood around by the front for a few minutes while 1 guy was running around inside tending to a few tables.

They have those purple fly lights so I think it attracted them more then get rid of them, so we sat outside instead since it was nice out. The food was okay, nothing too special. Portions are good but I felt like items lacked a little flavor/seasoning. I'd come back to try the brunch menu/Happy Hour though.

If on a tight budget, the Good Company (Covina) is a prime location for casual drinking or hangout. It's food is not bad, but you can taste its affordability. I arrived on Saturday (around 5:40PM). Customers walk to the counter and order. Staff (Omar) is friendly and hardworking. He's seen constantly moving and interacting with guests. My orders arrived quickly. The Cheeseburger Bun was ready in 5 minutes and 36 seconds. The Matcha Berry Affogato arrived at my table in 9 minutes and 20 seconds. The food's presentation is memorable. The Cheeseburger Bun ($6) includes wagyu ground beef, melted American cheese, thinly sliced pickle, and fried thin onion slivers. Eating it with the white bun reminded me of sloppy joe in a soft taco. This very wet, mushy meal is cheesy and oily. Still, it's filling and cheesy with a very affordable price-point. The Matcha Berry Affogato ($6) is a scoop of ice cream swimming in a lake of liquid matcha. The flavors are decent but not memorable. The ice cream was chill and not overly sweet. Unfortunately, the liquid matcha arrived almost lukewarm. It would have been much more refreshing if the entire dish came cold. The presentation is eye-catching, but it lacked any real taste. Still, it's a very affordable experience. Concerning ambiance, The Good Company (Covina) performs extremely well. The location is very clean and comfortable with upbeat & fun music. There's also one flatscreen tv in the corner with closed captioning english subtitles. The location is well-ventilated, and the furniture all look very new and well-maintained. Even though the location is small, the colors and decor make it feel spacious and comfortable. Overall, The Good Company (Covina) is a good, budget hangout location. The food has an attractive appearance but its taste is unfortunately comparable to premium fast food. If heading there, bring good company and you'll definitely have a good time. 4 out of 5

He discussed items on the menu and made recommendations. I ordered the Chasu Pork Belly, Corn Riblets with SECRET sauce was OUTSTANDING!!! Plus, I had to try the Kennebec Potato Chips that was very nice and CRUNCHY, served with a mild dipping sauce (resembled a twist of thousand island and ranch dressing).

About 4 TVs and they had different sporting events showing Service- this is where it started to go south. Your front of the house and those few minutes that a new customer has is crucial. Not very friendly and not really acknowledging the people that were standing waiting to be seated. Finally got a table, gave us menus and then 15 minutes go by and they haven't taken our order for drinks. As I look around there were 4 tables that had been seated, as well and no drink orders. We all waited about the same amount of time to get our drink orders. This unfortunately is why i took off 2 stars. To me, this unacceptable. After being seated and food came out, no one checked in until I needed a box and to pay. Did not feel welcomed and /or appreciated that I was supporting a small local business. Food- Brisket without the BBQ didn't have enough flavor. These types of meat don't need a hype man- the BBQ sauce. They need to be good on their own. Buuut Meat was tender. I read that their sausage is not great it's quite dry so I skipped it, my son had ordered ribs so I was going to steal from him, so I decided to get chicken- dark meat options. Chicken was very tasty, juicy and tender. It was the star of the dinner plate!!! Whaat!!! Their coleslaw- loved how everything was chopped nice and consistent- loved the Julienned green apples- again missing seasoning. DINNER ROLLS- Soooo fucken dry and not warmed up. I expect that level of hardness on my rolls when they are about to expire. Warm them up put them in a basket and give me butter. Such a small - perhaps minute action- but it was a huge miss. Other patrons were also commenting how bad the rolls were. We even joked, "death by dinner roll! " LOL. Cornbread- small portion but packed with flavor. I would say ease up on the Honey. I want to taste the corn bread too. It's unfortunate, I didn't have the experience others have had. Most likely not going to add it to my new restaurant rotation. There are other better options with better customer service.

The place was the sh*t. I've come here several times over the past couple years and it's more and more dead at the restaurant every time. The waitresses are absolutely dreadful. Every request is forgotten or takes 20 mins to arrive at the table. When we arrived we waited 20 mins for a waitress. We asked for some sauce, they forgot. We ordered a pizza, which was delivered to the wrong table. When we wanted to leave, the check took 20 mins as well. Now I have a crying baby and I'm waiting for them to try and split the check two ways and I eventually give up knowing that the task is too much for them to handle and just pay it all on one card. We had to track down the waitresses multiple times. It's like they have NO ability to anticipate the needs of their customers. "They ordered, pizza, maybe I should bring some plates". Nope! "They'll probably want their sauce before the food item is ICE COLD". Nope! Anytime we went into the restaurant the girls were on their phones. There were five tables in the restaurant tonight so there really was no excuse. I think this will be the last time I ever go to this restaurant. Unfortunately, the reputation of the old Congregation Ale House kept me coming back even when time after time, the service was abysmal, however, now that Congregation's former glory is thoroughly tarnished I can honestly say that I will not be coming back and I encourage everyone else to do the same. Quality like this cannot be tolerated. Travis, the former owner, would be ashamed of this fall from grace. R.I.P. Congregation Ale House

The young man working that day was super helpful and made our visit even better. The restaurant was clean, spacious, and had plenty of seating. They also have a great selection of meats, but I definitely recommend getting there early because some meats do sell out fast, which happened to us with a couple of the meats we originally wanted to try. We ended up ordering the ribs, pulled pork, brisket, cornbread, baked beans, mac and cheese. For dessert we ordered a tub of banana pudding. Everything was delicious yum! We always enjoy coming to Spirit of Texas and will definitely keep coming back!
