I just went here for the first time for a pickup order. This is not about service or the food. While I was waiting for my order I saw one of the workers ,a young man ,licking his thumbs I assume some type of food off his hands then put gloves on and was putting cherries into a dish and then took the gloves off and everything he touched thereafter had his spit and germs over everything. I am so grossed out. This is why I carry hand sanitizer others me at all times. read more

Amazing service, very sweet and helpful waitress - generic a.f. hospital cafeteria breakfast

Consistently excellent service and food coupled with a decidedly lively atmosphere always makes for a great time. This trip we had heroes.....chicken/bacon/ranch and a meatloaf mania. Both stuffed to flavorful overflowing. Add in the cheese curds appetizer and delicious slices of cake for dessert and we had leftovers for the next day. Psssst....be sure to ask for the free pickles and slaw when you order read more

Still as Delicious as I remember it from 2005! We Got the Classic Strawberry Cheesecake Milkshake!! Next time I'll have to get my Fried pickles. Sooo Good!! Thanks Katz for not changing. read more

This was my third time dining at Katz's and I was disappointed in the visit. My food and drink were good as was the service. Where the place failed me is by allowing a large group seats d nearby to be very loud. Make obnoxious noises and yell instead of speaking to each other. The manager was nearby and stopped at the table as well as ours but said nothing. Even when tables left without ordering, she remained silent. She later apologized and said she hadn't noticed the group being loud. It ruined our evening as well as others who were seated in that section. The least they could have done is seat customers away from the group but that didn't happen. read more

Me and my brother walked in after a long night of meetings/events and we're met with worst disrespect anyone could have been dealt with in the history of the restaurant industry. Me and my brother felt discriminated that the manager would blame us for the worst restroom upkeep a restaurant could keep and therefore he believed he was on the right grounds to refuse to serve us a meal. We will be following up the Katz as a corporate and the establishment. read more

We stopped here for nostalgia sake as we used to come here back in the day after the after club closed. I had the patty melt which was good , and my companion had the matzo ball soup. Bathroom is upstairs which is a pain. It was ok won't rush back, so many other great places to try in Houston read more

My husband and I landed in Houston well after 1am and were in extreme need of vittles. We were searching for something that would be serviced quick and fresh, so Katz's was an obvious choice. The restaurant was pretty packed, but the wait was short, we were seated in about 15 minutes. The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. My husband ordered the P/S, pastrami and corn beef, while I had a BLT. We also shared an order for potato skins. My husband really enjoyed the P/S, my BLT, however; was lackluster. It was dry, seemed as if it had little to no mayo. All and all, it was a decent meal. read more

We were looking for a place to eat breakfast at and just happened to pass by here. We saw the Dine In and open 24/7 sign so we gave it a try. Best decision ever! I was taking my mom out for bfast after her long night shift in the hospital. So I was so happy that she loved the place so much. The service was really great! Very friendly and accommodating. The food was good. Mom fell in love with the SMOKED SALMON BENEDICT. Y'all got to try it! I loved their pancakes too! And the raspeberry chipotle sauce was just awesome. I guess we have a new bfast spot! *they are observing social distancing by limiting table availabilities and MASKS ARE REQUIRED read more

It wasn't bad, but it wasn't overly impressive. We got the chicken and waffles and the Katz-adilla I liked the waffle, but the chicken needed more seasoning on it. Even some simple salt and pepper would have helped. I also liked the Katz-adilla which we added bacon to it. It was an interesting twist to a breakfast taco. However once again it just seemed to be lacking something. The bacon helped, but not for $3.50. The rating overall came down to the fact that we would go back but we would try something new there and we probably would seek out an alternative first. Our server however was super attentive and helpful towards the menu. It was our first time trying their breakfast so she was patient while we were looking at the menu. read more

Today's review is for take out Matzo Ball chicken soup, potato pancakes and a Reuben sandwich. Because of all the sickness running thru the family, including moi, nothing is better than chicken soup for the cure. Today I ordered the large and I mean the large bucket of soup, the 15.99 bucket. It comes with veggies and Matzo balls and chicken and noodles, but I had it adjusted for more Matzo balls and no veggies. I also figured potato pancakes would be a good little side treat for the sick ones at home. The Reuben was actually for me but I did end up eating only a quarter of it and sharing the rest. The soup was very tasty and all of the sick adult really enjoyed the Matzo balls. The chicken was tender but you will need to pick it off the bone which is a negative. Had the chicken been bone off this would have been a 5 star review but really who wants to get this home and fiddle around with picking chicken off the bone from a soup. read more

Used to love this place. Been coming here for almost 20 years since my undergrad at UH - early 2000s. Customer service has gone down the toilet and the leadership capacity of the management has fallen off, significantly. Not what I imagine the Katz Family had in mind for the restaurant with their name on the door. Brought family - four people over the age of 9 and one two year old. Five people total, including me, three of the other four were kids. They apparently charge an auto gratuity of 18%. Even with three of the guests being children, two of which ordered off the kids menu. The bottom of the menu says party of five is an auto 18% charge. Seriously? So a small family is considered a large party? For the kids, we ordered chocolate milk. We were charged the full price of a drink order for both. So apparently drinks do not come included in kids meals so beware. Our server was Andy. He was pleasant, knew the menu inside out, and made some good recommendations for my dinner choice. Once we got the receipt, I asked the hostess to speak to a manager. We got an individual named Perry. Not going to attack him, but he has a lot to learn when it comes to customer service. He might be operationally sound, but he is not who I would ask to resolve customer issues. He lacked empathy and was actually a little condescending. When I asked him some simple questions he hid behind "policy" and stated the gratuity charges are on the menu. Also stated that we ordered milk when the server took our drink order, so therefore it was a full charge. When I asked him about their policy regarding ordering off the kids menu he stated that we ordered the drinks before the food, when the server asked what we wanted to drink, so therefore the charges were valid. After his condescending remarks, he said he would refund the milk charges. I told him not to worry about it. The fact that I had to have that discussion, break down the issue to him, followed by his original reaction, I asked for the GM's card and left. Not wanting to add insult to injury. I thanked Andy on my way out. He even offered to give me cash but I told him not to worry and to keep his tip. I know these servers are underpaid, the last thing I want to do is hurt him and the busboy crews. So please ensure you do not order drinks with your family until you are ready to order your entire meal. Otherwise what should be included will cost you $3 a piece. Barry and Crew - if you guys are still affiliated with the business, please ensure your GM Greg has a customer centric leader on site at all times when he is not. Sincerely disappointed and just unprofessional as a people leader of a well-known and recognized restaurant in town. I'm not hurting for $20, so it is what it is. Very sad to experience this after I've taken friends and family who visit from out of town here. I'd be embarrassed if my name was on the front door. read more

It wasn't what I expected, not sure what tho. It is a high class Deli/Sandwich shop. Service was good. Very busy area, limited parking. Spicy Tony's need for the table with Habanero Tabasco sauce.

Went here for lunch and it was really good! Reminded me of Philly a lot so I enjoyed the walk down memory lane looking at the menu and the inside pictures. The pastrami was huge my husband could only eat half. My daughter got the two sauce Mac a cheese. There is no picture because she devoured it lol. I had the Cobb salad which was a great size and filling. Overall enjoyed it will definitely be back.. Remember always make room for wine! Cheers . read more

Real Deli! The sandwich was top-notch but if you get it to go ask them for a cup of their own mustard. The little packets just don't do it. The latkes were delicious. The cabbage rolls were just like my Bubbe's. Tried the key lime pie this time and it was good but the cheesecake is better. Pricey but the memories it brings back makes it worth every penny. read more

We always order Togo, and enjoy it that way because it's convenient. This time around a few friends and I dined in. Got seated quick, food came out decent timing, and waitress was nice. Although I started to micro w little nats fly around. So I started looking around to notice one Nat has been chilling for 10-15 mins on the sofa above my shoulder. Told the manager she was understanding...then look back the Nat was gone and notice my bread had mold, I instantly started throwing up. Thank god we sat by the bathroom. Ugggg my feelings are hurt bc this was my favorite late night snack. Y'all probably just need to do a deep cleaning. read more

Been there couple times but specifically the last time I came they beginning of the service wasn't even decent, Luna was the hostess, she seemed very careless about helping us out and I know we all have a bad day but at the end of it you're working at a restaurant where your check comes from your tips and she killed my whole vibe acting like that, my jalapeño poppers arrived cold too... Won't be coming back again after this experience. read more

Customer service carried this place in my opinion. Had the onion dip sandwhich and the monte crisco sandwhich. They both were ok, but nothing I'd go spreading the word about! Had two drinks as well, a strawberry peach margarita which was good but all in all not a place I can see myself coming back! Especially for the prices! Forgot about that, this place is PRICEY! Go here if its 3 am and nothing else is open, other than that, I probably wouldn't come back! read more

I'd give it 5 stars if it weren't for the inconsistent customer service. They have some great staff and some not so great. I love coming here after a night out with friends or after a long day at work. I'm a sucker for appetizers and yes I originally came here for the dip and fried pickles. The vibe is chill old style deli and I like that. Take in consideration that they get super packed in weekends and the line can get a bit crazy. Overall will continue to come to this location. read more

It's the host staff that knocks it down to 2 stars. Today I came in with my elderly mother (who has visible mobility issues) and one of the girls immediately asked with a vapid glare: "Is upstairs okay?" Seriously? Does it look like we are getting up there anytime today? I explained that downstairs would be much easier for us, and I just received a series of annoyed looks. We were soon seated next to two occupied tables in the middle of the room downstairs. I asked if an adjacent table by the window was open and the reply was just pointing and barking: "No, this one!!" We were intentionally given the less desirable table and no one will convince me otherwise. On the bright side, I enjoyed the chicken and waffles considerably. Chante, our server, was incredibly professional, polite and attentive. Thanks to her, we learned that there is an elevator in the back. This might have been useful info to receive from the hosts, but that would mean they were doing their jobs. Hire new host staff immediately. I'd love to be able to come back and leave a much better review soon. read more

Very disappointed on the food and on the server, first thing our server is the bartender so we didn't get enough attention since there was people in the bar to be attended, didn't get refills throughout the meal. I ordered the breakfast waffle sandwich, my sandwich didn't even have the 4 slices of bacon as it said on the menu, waited for about 10 mins for the server to give us attention. I had told her that the sandwich was missing the bacon and I didn't like it, she took it to tell her manager but when she came back she didn't even offer me if I wanted something else and gave me my receipt, it was 90$ in total even after she removed the sandwich. I left with an empty stomach and very mad that there wasn't even option for me to have it remake or get something else I don't even think she reported it to the manager. The potato skins were burnt, barely any cheese on them and the potatoes were dry af, the cheese crisps weren't even cheesy it was just crisps so therefore food was awful, save your money and go somewhere where the food is much better for the price. read more

The delivery was fast and the food was accurate, but the prices listed and the prices charged were vastly different. I paid about $10 more than I expected because of the price discrepancies. If they have different prices for dine in versus delivery, that would've been nice to know. None of the eggs Benedict had standard hollandaise sauce, just red pepper version. I planned my meal to have something that would cut the spice and it wasn't bad, but it would've been nice to have at least one option without spice. read more

Food it's all ways great , but prepared to wait to be seated , have your waiter or waitress to greet you, in your table pick your order , after that you should be ok , drinks and food will come at a very reasonable time , but his the catch, only at Friday or Saturday night since they open 24 HRS !!!! this place goes CRAZY !!! Feel sorry for the servers , but everybody it's always with a good attitude , I always let my food server know to take there time , since o I'd don't mind waiting , other days of the week it's busy but no such crazy rush !!LOL , my family and my self we love this place we just to go to the only location in Montrose, but now that they more locations we go to the one closer to us in the galleria , and we live in Katy tx , but we don't mind at all !!!

Mgt, Today, Thanksgiving Day (11-23-23), we made a decision to eat at Katz Montrose located 616 Westheimer Road, Houston, TX 77006. Felicia brought our drinks, and NEVER returned. We were waiting on her to bring to our table plates for the pickles & coleslaw. Needed salt, pepper, spoon, etc. I had to get up and look for them. A nice waitress, Lisa, came and brought it to us even though it wasn't her table. Felicia was more concerned about talking to co-workers than attending to her customers which is the reason why she showed up for work. I asked Felicia why did she not return to our table, table # 122, Felicia was out in the kitchen. Date: 11-23-23 Check # 311 Table: 122 Server: Felicia Time: 3:01 PM Approval Code: 06545D read more

The food was delish, the atmosphere was fun, and the service was friendly! Great drinks too!

Sorry to report - what they call Pastrami, isn't! Dried red meat is all I can call it. The place is nice, staff is super friendly, and the breakfast taco and waffles are great! But even the bottom of NYC pastrami places won't sell the dried shell of a food that is sold here. So for food 24x7 and some good local dishes, Katz works. But real kosher deli meats? Do t be fooled by the NYC pic at the entrance - it isn't read more

This food was yummy! In my opinion the fried pickles were very overpriced, though. They tasted good but there just wasn't enough to justify the price. Also our server told us about how she'd been kicked out and banned from a club, which we thought was kind of a weird thing to tell your customers. The guy that refilled our drinks was super nice though! Me and my friend both got the regular size Scottish Smoked Salmon sandwiches and we both ended up taking half home so we could've just split one or gotten two skinnies. read more
