we were looking for a place that was on Katie Freeway on the way back to San Antonio that we could jump in and out of without too much fuss because we were leaving during rush-hour afternoon traffic... I loved this place! Great find! Nice, easy going vibe with grey service and great food! I myself had the hamburger which was very flavorful! Nice spice and taste to the meat. My so. Have the Dr Pepper pork chop (delish) and my wife had the pot roast. The roast was red wine heavy but very good. I think the highlight for me was the meatball appetizer because it came with really good bread and was the perfect seasoning and consistency for a high-quality meatball. So good that the next time I come here, I will be trying an Italian dish! Loved it! read more

I told you I would give it another try, and I did!! Monica provided excellent service as my waitress. I specifically, wanted the Ceviche based on a menu posted on Yelp. I found out that it was no longer on the menu. My initial waiter, told me to order the Campeche and I found that it is vastly different from Ceviche. Ceviche is lighter and has a citrus base. The Campeche is ketchup based, sweeter and thicker. Monica was kind as I requested to take it off, as it was just not what I expected, but if you do like the consistency then I would recommend it. I opted for the slider, OMG, their bread was sweet and soft and the burger was flavorful. I also, chose the Martini and Margarita...both were really good. All Happy Hour items! The martini was so smooth it tasted like water....dangerous! I appreciate Ben, for making the adjustment to my bill. I will definitely return to try more items! read more

We went for Valentine's Day and had an 8:00pm reservation. We were sat right away and greeted within 2 min of seating. Service was impeccable and taking care of us tonight was Olesia. She was very attentive and courses were served in an appropriate timing, that on a holiday was unusual and noticed. They did not rush you in and out just to fill the tables. We started off with the Crab Cakes. Very nicely done and premium ingredients. Entrees includes Denver Pot Roast and the Redfish Pico. Both were excellent choices. The redfish was a smidge overcooked for my husband's taste but accompanied by the garlic mashed potatoes it balanced out. The Pot Roast was 10/10. Believe me we had leftovers to enjoy for another meal. Then she asked about dessert and brought the menu. After several minutes of deliberation we opted for the Strawberry Cream Cake-but TO GO. To say the portion sizes were large is the truth. They also in our take home bag included 2 complimentary Chocolate Dipped Strawberries since it was Valentine's Day. Overall, it was a great experience and we enjoyed the ambiance very much. They had it decorated for the special day and it was a very welcoming atmosphere by all the staff. read more

Return visit which was very pleasant. Special thanks to Marissa who has a proactive solutions after a faulty experience with my leftovers from the previous day. Which was a 1-2 star rating from service, but the Denver roast dish was 1 out of 10 highly recommend! Today Sam L and Monica were excellent! I definitely appreciate the flow of communication. Monica informed me of Thursday specials. Every Thursday is steak night! 12oz NY strip for $35! Served with potatoes and asparagus. Flavor was very pleasant. I didn't like the shoulder cap of fat. I opt for the Denver dish again. Which forever is grand slamming. Only flaw besides some fat was that the kitchen was a little stingy with the mash potatoes tonight. Not enough to really accommodate the extra love of sauce and roast. -5 Which last night was flawless, the mash potatoes were my favorite, it just really ticked me off that the waitress threw trash in my plate when I was boxing to take it home. She didn't even bother to ask if she could pick it up. (I was aware they were closed, I was departing, and the table of the 4 loud mouths were completed and still were there to disturbed the peace with loud laughs and talking. ) As a first impression it wasn't the best, but the solution was acceptable and pleasing, for me to return and explore the menu and special day's deals like Monday's burger days and Thursday steak specials. -2 The bottom of the bowl didn't feel clean on both days, which is very off setting to a lady who only eats from her own personal silverware/flatware. read more

Service was prompt and professional. Pricey but not disappointing. The Chile shrimp was delicious. I took advantage of the $25 lunch special. The bar tender and server/cook were so nice I'd go back just to visit, honestly. I enjoyed the professional environment as well as the food. read more

Went for a weekday lunch in late April. Service was prompt and friendly. Their lunch specials are a great value. Food is consistently good.

Took a quick video-game break and stopped by Jonathan the rub for a full meal, and it was outstanding. The flavors were rich and memorable--definitely something I'll be coming back to chase again. The bar area was very clean, and the bartender was extremely helpful in guiding me to the right drinks. Great customer service and a really satisfying experience overall. Highly recommend! read more

Our Ladies Dine Out club really enjoyed our evening at Jonathan's the Rub! Our waiter was very attentive even to our large group. My food was delicious! I got a wedge salad to start and asked for an extra side of blue cheese dressing; that's the way to do it! I sampled the maple glazed carrots and onion rings from others. The onion rings were huge!! Very good and crunchy. My filet was cooked to perfection! I wanted to order the tiramisu but they were out so I chose the coconut cream pie instead and was very happy! This would definitely be the perfect place for a date night or any celebratory dinner. I'd love to try out their lunch menu as well. I'll be back for sure! read more

I've been to this location as well as the Memorial location for Mother's Day/Father's Day brunch, lunch and dinner. The Memorial location is bigger and more modern, but the service and food at both are great. This time I went for lunch. They have a $25 lunch special where you get a starter and an entree. I think it's a great value for what you get. The servers are always attentive and personable. The bruschetta is amazing and the best I've ever had! This time I had the jalapeño fish with mashed potatoes. Both were delicious and full of flavor! The watermelon & cucumber salad is typically delicious and refreshing, but this time it was just ok. This is a must visit place! This location is more "homey" and the Memorial location is a lot more modern with natural lighting and more decor. read more

Updating in response to Sam...Yes, the 2nd sweet chili shrimp was ordered because it replaced the ceviche we sent back. My review is addressing the waitress not so much you. I didn't even mentioned how she was to apply a $50 gift card to each bill but instead she applied the $50 without actually deducting it from the bill. My mom had to bring it to her attention. We dine out at least 4-5x per week so we shouldn't have to ask for small things to be done to make our night special nor or we looking for anything free. All we ask for is great food and customer service. Honestly, you seem very remorseful and I will update my star based on that. A group of eight visited for my mom's birthday, but our experience was disappointing. My nephew found a blonde/brown hair in his pasta and while the manager offered to remake it seems like there was attitude from the waitress after that. The house bread bread and garlic bread are okay. The sweet chili shrimp were pretty good. The mac and cheese was dry plus lacking seasoning. We actually ask for a side of fettuccine sauce to put on the mac-n-cheese. The chicken fettuccine lacked seasoning as well. The Caesar salad was really good. After paying, we had to ask about birthday desserts, which the waitress confirmed were available--something she should've offered. Sitting by the kitchen was uncomfortable as there was always 2-3 girls standing there staring while speaking Spanish. After awhile it was awkward and we felt like we didn't have any privacy. Overall, the food and service were less than mediocre, and we do not plan to return. read more

Went for lunch and was pleased with their generous portions and excellent service. We got the blue burger and the blackened shrimp tacos. Both came with a side of fries and were pretty standard dishes. (6/10) The shrimp tacos were exactly what I wanted for a light but filling meal. The staff is attentive and there pertly of parking on the side and in front of the restaurant. read more

Consistently great food! I like the lunch menu option of 2 courses for $25. There are a lot of choices. I absolutely love the watermelon feta and spinach salad. It's light but so delicious. And I really think the Chicken Piccata is my favorite version in Houston. The chicken is not breaded - so it is far more flavorful, and the artichoke heart, caper, mushroom and lemon sauce is delicious and a perfect accompaniment to the chicken and pasta. It is a lighter version than most, but it is the one with that is the most delicious. Generous portions as well. The servers are very nice and attentive, and the chef comes out from the kitchen to check on guests as well. read more

Six of us celebrated a birthday here, and we all enjoyed the atmosphere, service and food.

TikTok made me do it and give this place a try, we came at 3 and it was pretty empty we were skeptical to try it but gave it a shot. We decided on the 48$ deal where it comes with starter, entree and dessert. The sweet chili shrimp were so good I ordered 4 more, they were so crispy and smothered in sauce and the shrimp were not the typical small shrimp these were huge definitely an appetizer you need to try. As entree I got the steak and honestly I was expecting a small steak but was surprised how big it was, it was well done but I had asked for medium well I still ate it, the mashed potatoes were ok needed more flavor to it and salt. For the dessert I got the tres leches and ya'll it was sweet and creamy very delicious I loved it. Overall the food was great, the service was great they kept coming up to us asking us how we were doing, I will be coming back for date nights with my hubby. read more

I had dinner here and we had plans afterwards so we didn't mind sitting at the bar. We did not make reservations and the place was packed for a Friday night. For two of us, we shared the mussels, Brussel sprouts and the scallops. Everything was delicious. But my favorite was the scallops!! Oh they are one of my favorite scallop dishes I've ever ordered anywhere. The couple next to us was asking what we thought and I told her that she must get the scallops. Very tender and flavorful and made very very well. The drinks were great too. Though I do not remember the names of them. read more

We had a great experience at Jonathan's for our Christmas Eve dinner! Everyone loved their meals and our waitress couldn't have been nicer. All of our food was fresh and hot with delicious flavor, and the speciality cocktail drinks were such a delight. Two must orders are the meatballs and chicken parm with angel hair pasta. I can't wait to revisit the next time we're in Houston! read more

A new Thursday only feature after 4 pm is a $35 streak special. To include potatoes and green beans as you will see it comes out sliced and a large sized strip. Easily enough for 2!! I hadn't eaten all day so I showed up just after 4 hungry as I was told it's also the time of a shift change which made me wait on my steak for 1/2 hour. It's fine I'm in no rush I ordered m/r and received rare but it's ok the taste is great. I may order medium next time lol! Not to get rare again. Good value. read more

Service was great! Our waiter made us feel like we were friends coming over for dinner. The roast was delicious!

Family wanted something new so we took a chance on this place. Ambiance was good and the service was spectacular. Thank you Abbyfpr the swrvice and smile. The food was more upscale to match the decor and cleanliness of the restaurant. But another gem was the manager Ben. He checked on us and made us feel like family. We cant wait to go back and try some of the delicious cocktails we saw coming from the bar and the great selectionof wines. Food was hot and very fresh and my burger was cook exactly how I wanted and looked like a picture in a magazine. read more

The staff here is awesome and friendly. I only gave 3 stars because of the cost of a chicken fried chicken with fries! $26!! It was good and gravy was tasty, but it's not worth $26!! for a fried chicken breast and a side fries. I also had a small Caesar salad. I didn't like the croutons, I never had sweet croutons on a Caesar salad and the dressing didn't taste that good to me. Too creamy like ranch dressings. The best Caesar dressing that I ever had was at Cavatore's Italian restaurant in the Heights. Delicious! . read more

What can I say, I love me some Johnathan's. I usually visit the Memorial location, but they are closed Sunday evenings. This location is conveniently located near the freeway and a little more of a drive for me, but it's worth it. Usually I order seafood at this establishment, but on this occasion I ordered the Hill Country which is fried chicken with a single fried shrimp. The portion was generous and tasty, a southern comfort kind of dish that soothes the soul. The Sriracha cream sauce works very well with it. The Greek salad was delicious, as their croutons are amazing and buttery, as well as home made. I ordered the same signature cocktail twice, and they came out very different from each other. Hrm. Other than that, the meal was awesome. Do order some sides or a salad to accompany your main, because it's not usually included. Reservations are recommended. read more

We came here for a nice dinner for work and got to sit in a private dining area with closed doors! The ambiance of the restaurant upon entering was beautiful, light and bustling with staff and customers! Greeted promptly by the hostess and whisked away to our private dining. Entering into the private area there was quite beautiful decor and familesque style of dining around a large table! The staff were absolutely phenomenal throughly all the courses of the meal. The great thing I enjoyed most is that there was a preset menu that was printed and placed in in front of us. But they would still allow you to order from the full menu if you'd like. We were served white and red wine, and had a full four course meal with appetizers, calamari and flat bread (both amazing!). Second course was a house salad or Caesar, I got the Caesar and it was delicious! For the third course I got a steak with a spicy hollandaise sauce and asparagus and IT WAS AMAZING! Just enough heat and the asparagus cooked to perfection. Sides were served family style which was perfect so you could try a bit of everything. Lastly, fourth course finished off with Nutella cheesecake with an Oreo crust which I wish would've been my first course! So so good! This place was truly a great first experience and I look forward to coming back for more! read more

My husband has been enjoying these burgers since his high school days back in 2012--and he hasn't stopped since! Ever since we moved back to Houston a few years ago, we've made it a weekend tradition to visit this restaurant. The food is consistently outstanding. From the juicy, flavorful burgers (hands down the best I've ever had) to the dumplings and chicken parmesan, every dish is absolutely delicious. You can truly taste the quality in every bite. We also want to give a special shoutout to Abraham, the bartender, who knows our orders by heart and always goes above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The service here is just as impressive as the food--every visit is a fantastic experience. Even my family from out of town, who are notoriously picky eaters, fell in love with their meals and still rave about them a year later. This place has definitely earned the title of our favorite restaurant in Houston. Sam is doing an incredible job running this location! read more

Was there for the first time and didn't even get to eat or even get seated. We walked in hostess greeted us and I asked for a table for two. Hostess said it'll be a few mins. We sat at the bar and ordered a drink while waiting. I was ok with waiting. There was a couple before us so I figured shouldn't take long. About six tables of parties of 3 and more came after us. The couple before us got seated and figured it wouldn't be too long till we get seated. Meanwhile we never did. The tables that came after us that had larger parties than us got seated before us. The hostess never tried to approach us to offer patio seating nor to let us know the status on our wait time. When I approach the host stand she pointed at a table and said yes I'm getting the table clean. I checked out of the bar. I turn around and another party of 3 got sat In the table she pointed. Then she proceeded with seating another table. When I asked why they got seated before us she replied with they had reservations. I said ok. But really I was not ok. why didn't she mention that when I first approached the host stand. We ended up leaving after we saw the host was not trying to do anything about solving our table situation. read more

I originally dined at the Gaylord location, so I was worried the quality and service wouldn't compare but I was so happy to find out that the only thing that changed was the physical location. The food here is so comforting, yet multidimensional. There were layers of flavor in almost every dish I tried. Their lunch specials are a steal! Though burgers are a must, their salads are AMAZING. For dinner, the seafood fra diavolo and denver roast are my favorites. I haven't had their drinks, but I'll be back for Thirsty Thursday in the very near future!!! read more
