I was surprised to see a Katz's Deli in Conroe. My husband had never made it to the Austin location, so I thought it was worth a visit. Well, it was nothing like the vintage Austin restaurant. Our server explained also that it's no longer a Kosher Jewish Deli ( ). The prices are wayyyyy too high. Thankfully, this was a holiday, special, one time splurge. Yikes. Our drinks weren't offered to be refilled, but only as asked (if the server happened to be close by). The wait was normal- not fast, nor particularly slow. The food was decent (not bad, not especially fantastic). I was able to eat gluten free (for a fee with no promises). It was a novelty visit. I have no desire to go back. read more

Went here finally for a sandwich and guess what happens. No DAMN sandwich bread at 1pm on a Sunday afternoon. Waited for a table for 20 mins and sat there thinking what sandwich I wanted all for nothing. They sat us down and nonchalantly walked by and said we don't have bread but y'all can order anything else. How in the world do ya pride yourself on sandwiches and don't have bread. Then we say F it and let's try something else. Big mistake. The peach tea was disgusting and had no type of peach flavor in it. The coffee was like warm at best. Yet I still decided to try something else. I got the waffle sandwich and the whole damn thing was cold. Cold waffle, cold eggs, cold cheese and cold bacon. The home fries were even cold. My wife had a cup of broccoli soup and it was cold. The waiter sat there and was telling us it was just made. Unless they made it in the cooler I'm not sure how just made soup is cold. Yeah I had high hopes for this place and it totally failed. One star is being nice. read more

I apologize to anyone that has been to Katz's delicatessen in New York for thinking that Katz's deli in the Woodlands is anything like that. My husband asked for an espresso they didn't have it. Not a big deal. She said we have nitro and he said I'll have that. And she said we don't have that right now. Not a big deal got a cup of coffee. Waited 20 minutes for a cup of coffee and she kept saying his coffee was coming. What delicatessen that's open 24 seven doesn't have coffee already brewed? The 24 seven breakfast menu is limited and everything is served with turkey ham. Ham does not come from a turkey. And it is disgusting when it does. The menu is very limited. My husband asked for a bagel sandwich and could you get an egg fried and she said no it only comes with scrambled. How do you not get to choose how you want your egg on your sandwich? read more

this place has been totally overhauled and revamped since we were last day on. It is now I sit down and be served restaurant is supposed to walk through deli. It is also now open 24 hours a day unfortunately they no longer have the self-serve pickles, and if you would like chips with your sandwich that is an additional $3. Can't say but I would pay this much for a sandwich again, but it really is good food, the place is clean and the staff were all properly dressed and professional. read more

Caleb - manager of the restaurant just yelled in my face, in front of my daughter and grabbed our food off of the table because I asked him to stop yelling in my face after he yelled at my daughter. What a miserable, horrible excuse of a man. I can't believe they have a "manager" like that in this place. Walked in and asked to sit on the patio, was rudely told NO, I thought that was weird but said okay. Went to our big booth and my girls asked if they could go sit at the two top/high top booth, I said sure I'll order your food from here! They came back crying because a grown man had yelled at them. I asked to speak to a manager, he was very arrogant and started to yell at me, I asked him to please stop yelling at me and told him he was being incredibly rude. He couldn't hold a normal calm conversation with me, then proceeded to storm off and snatch everything off of our table and told me to leave and that he was calling the cops on me....WILD. Caleb, buddy, I think you need a new job outside of customer service/hospitality/restaurant management. This isn't the industry for you. No grown man needs to be yelling at anyone's daughter for sitting in a booth with her friend. It's really disgusting. By the way, they are 10 years old and weren't doing anything wrong. I understand if a section is closed but there were other people sitting and eating in the area...like Caleb himself who was scarfing food down at one of the tables in front of everyone... One of the servers apologized to me for Caleb's behavior and said he treats everybody horribly and he himself would have taken care of us out on the patio so he doesn't know why we weren't allowed to sit out there... read more

Katz's - The P/C (pastrami and corned beef). A pathetic excuse for a $17 sandwich. - Delis Near Me - Shenandoah, Texas

I went there on Sunday, 11/07/2021. There was plenty of seating, half the restaurant was empty. I had to wait 20 minutes to get a table because I couldn't sit at the bar. I can't sit up that high it hurts my legs too much. I got a sigh and a roll of the girls eyes at that. They finally seated me and the waiter was ok, not real friendly, but not rude. The food was good, but they didn't tell me they charged extra for ranch, most restaurants don't charge extra. When I go the bill I mention it, the waiter ignored me. I don't think I'll be back, service has really went down hill. read more

I came here about 4 yrs ago, and I was disappointed then, but I thought things would change.............NOT My daughter and I came here to get an after movie meal. She order a cup of Matzo Ball soup and cheese crisps (fried cheese curds). I ordered corned beef hash and over easy eggs with rye toast. Our server was great. He answered questions, and took care of his job well. When it came to the food, my daughter liked the fried crisps ok, but said the Matzo Ball soup tasted like broth from a ramen packet. She even showed me the yellow powder residue at the bottom of the bowl. I got my dish, and immediately sent the eggs back as they were crispy...... if you have read my breakfast reviews, eggs are a simple item to cook, but these were fried brown and the edges were crispy dark brown and one yolk was already hard. I asked for rye toast, it was not toasted at all, in fact it was cold still. The manager came around to ask how the food was and I told him. At this point I was done eating and still did not get my eggs back...he tried to explain that rye bread was hard to toast.....I was also advised that the ramen, I mean Matzo ball soup was made with homemade broth. I asked for the check, and my eggs finally showed up!! I really wish I would have taken pictures as the eggs were more crispy than the original ones. It was four years since the last visit, it will not be happening any time again. Service was great, but the kitchen a lot needs help. I really am not a fan of a manager trying to lie to me. read more

Ummmm no. Never again. First of all, I ordered 2 philly cheesesteaks because i used to live downtown and i was addicted to them. Additionally, I specifically asked for extra mayo. "Sure! No problem!" Was the reply. Well, after driving 32 min from N. Houston to their Woodlands location im told my total is $45! No, i didnt order drinks or dessert. I ordered two philly cheesesteaks. Okay fine, they are good not $19 good but i was already there and 32 min invested lol. I get home to First find out THERES NO MAYO! Not on my sandwiches or in my bag. SMH for $19 i surely assumed id have fries, or chips or at least a pickle with my sandwiches. NOPE! Not even a napkin! The picture ive attached is EXACTLY what $45 got me. Never again. Might I suggest the westheimer crew/management take over the woodlands for a week or two. Because im certain i never paid $19 for a philly when i lived downtown and it most certainly aways came with slaw and a pickle. These two arent even good. They taste like I made them myself ------psssssss im not a cook by any means. So disappointed. I want the hour round trip drive time out of my life read more

We were looking for a place in the Woodlands to grab a bite today and Katz's Deli did not disappoint. We had cheese crisp, chicken and waffles, a vanilla milkshake, kids cheese pizza, French onion soup, and. French dip sandwich. Everything was perfectly cooked and huge. The chicken and waffles disappeared quickly. We ate so fast I forgot to get pictures lol. We will be back. Dennis the manager was great and offered great advice for what to order. Our server Peace was very patient and helped us get our picky eater to at least eat something. It is definitely worth stopping in. read more

The food is decent and service is not bad at all. They're always friendly and accommodating. We go here anytime it's really late at night and everything else is closed. The food is honestly a bit expensive for the quality and what you get, but it's still good and hits the spot when it's 3am and you need a place to eat. read more

The Katz is based off a deli in New York. This restaurant is big with lots of seating if you want a booth or a table. The only huge downside was the service. Our waiter took forever to get to my table. Literally a party came in after we came in, and he took the party order first even though we were sat down first. Even when he was done taking their order, it took him about 5-10 minutes to even come to my table. Another waiter had to get our drinks because our waiter didn't even come to get it. Service is slow. Maybe they're understaffed? I only saw about 3-4 servers working and 1 hostess. Food was good but service lacked a lot. The Katz Pride w Onion Rings - I didn't eat this one, but I took a bite so my rating is - 3/5 I had mixed feelings about this one. Coming from a person who isn't really fond of coleslaw, it just wasn't for me. My boyfriend liked this sandwich, but he said that mines was better. The sandwich came with corned beef, Russian dressing, and a ton of coleslaw on rye. If we do order this sandwich again, I would ask for toasted bread. The bread was soggy at the bottom when it arrived to the table which just wasn't very appetizing. He ordered a side of onion rings which is what you will expect. They were super crispy unlike other onion rings. It had a thick thick batter which I didn't mind. Temperature again could have been better. The Reuben w Sweet Potato Fries - 4/5 The Reuben I ordered had corn beef, w melted Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Russian dressing on grilled rye bread. The sandwich was pretty tasted. I thought that the meat tasted great and the Russian sauce was spectacular. The bread was toasted and crispy. There wasn't much melted cheese and sauerkraut though. It didn't look anything like the first picture I saw either (I didn't see any melted cheese dripping from the sides). I ordered it with a side of sweet potato fries. The fries were thin cut which I didn't mind. It just wasn't hot and it didn't feel fresh. It kind of arrived at my table kind of warm to even cold. Other than the fries temperature, the fries tasted what you will expect. read more

We had a nice Father's Day breakfast here, good food (albeit the chicken from the chicken & waffles was extremely greasy) and good service. The only downside was that we wanted to bring our dog to the patio and was told that the patio was closed until 10am (it was 9am). That seemed odd because the patio is so small and the walk not that far for the waitress. There was hardly anybody in the restaurant, weird, but the Broken Yolk nearby was over-full. read more

Portions are huge...staff was amazing food was excellent. I had the Philly cheese omelette and it was a tad on the dry side. Taste was good just a tad dry. Waiter was good and atmosphere was perfect read more

I made the mistake of coming to this location. I shoukd have known by the emptiness of booths at prime dinner hour. My pictures speak for themselves. After i ordered my turkey plate, the waiter returned to inform me that they were out of gravy and did i want to order something else. I was in the process of reviewing the menu for an alternative meal, when the waiter shows up with my plate and says they do have gravy. The plating was so unappetizing and the gravy tasted terrible, and i told the waitr this, to which all he said was sorry. I will not conf 9 here again. read more

Second time coming here. We really liked our experience this time than last mainly bc it wasn't as busy. We got the French duo with roast beef and provolone cheese on French bread, meat loaf, and custom order of Parmesan garlic chicken wings (the first one ever made here!). The meat loaf was perfectly tender and very tasty. The French bread dipped in was like kissing your sandwich-literally and figuratively. Too tasty. The matzo ball soup was good but not great. The matzo ball is pretty large so be sure to share with a friend. We ordered chicken wings that were not spicy-garlic Parmesan. Kaleb, the cashier, was super nice and actually had the cooks make it for is since it wasn't on their menu and since they've never made it before. Appreciated the effort that was put into making our meal everything a hungry person would need. Be aware of their automatically included gratuity on take out orders which blows my mind. Gratuity for making my order for which I'm paying for?! Cheap. read more

Had high hopes but left disappointed. I love French dip sandwiches and ordered a large (New Yorker?) sized one here for lunch, but the meat was good though the dip was not...it was far too concentrated, too salty, and didn't mix well. Extensive menu, my highlight of the meal was the light matzo ball & chicken soup. Better places to grab sandwiches in Houston... read more

So it's St. Patrick's Day and all we wanted was a corned beef sandwich to enjoy during March Madness. Tried to order online but the Woodlands location did not offer that option. (All the others did!) My husband decided to drive to the restaurant and ordered to-go. He waited five minutes, some one told him to have a seat. He waited five more minutes and nobody cared to take my order. Doubt I'll be going back. I'm from NYC and love deli. read more

Matzo ball soup tasted great a super rich broth with a tender matzo ball. The P/C klassic sandwich was just that a sandwich the pastrami and corned beef were good but not great definitely not worth $14 bucks. The nosh basket was small for a $13 appetizer but everything in it was okay. We came to give it a try because of the name but never again. We are one and done. read more

Easily one of my favorite places to grab a bite to eat. Kosher and delicious. What's not to love? Well its supposed to be kosher lol. When I was keto this was HEAVEN. But whether you're doing a specialized diet or not you are bound to enjoy the menu in front of you. No matter which location you decide to meet up at (I think Westheimer might be my favorite) you'll be sure to find a staple dish to love. Or even the wall art, or the vibe on the street. Katz is a whole vibe. Plan for full bellies and smiles ahead! And don't forget to grab a slice of pie or one of those milkshakes (they bring all the boys to the yard) for the ride home. Or for the mister is misses. Or the kiddos. Or for yourself, who am I kidding? read more

Every time I go here I always leave irritated. The food and service are good, but the prices are outrageous. I always get sticker shock every time I get the bill. Today was no different. 1 small appetizer, 3 sandwiches, 3 drinks and a side of fries was over $80! Sorry, it's just not worth that much. Especially when I can got to Jason's for almost half the price. read more

Both my wife and myself had the Rubens. I guess by the time we got them home, the bread had gotten real soggy. But while we were there, they have a misleading menu and it says they have drinks but what they don't tell you is that these drinks are made with wine and they do not have a liquor license. And the charge for these drinks are outrageous. The manager did come over there and tell us and I sent mine back. They comped ours but my wife had hers but she didn't finish it so watch her drink menu when you're there it's not true alcohol read more

To be honest, I avoided coming to this "Katz deli" because it's obviously a copy-cat of the real Katz's delicatessen at 205 East Houston St., Manhattan, New York. How well do they copy? Meh. Maybe if you've never been to the New York landmark you'd be fooled. But I suspect people are smarter than that. The food is okay. Actually in some specific cases, it's quite good. For example: the Cheese Blintzes are faithful to the real McCoy. They're creamy, savory (with a hint of sweet), and served piping hot. There are sauces as toppings to choose from (such as apple) that elevate the experience. You won't be disappointed. Their Motzo Ball soup, in the other hand, is only passable as a soup. The soup broth is quite good. The flavor does not taste artificial and the accompanying vegetables seem quite fresh. However, the motzo balls themselves are mushy and have very little flavor. Bummer. The big disappointment is their pastrami. I think their source must be the local grocery store. Seriously. It's just that unremarkable. The Katz's delicatessen in New York is famous for their pastrami. It's heavenly delicious and honestly makes the world a better place. Here? Well, it is technically pastrami. But it will never make the big time. Another point of contention I have is their portion sizes. Specifically, the "New York" size. This is not anything like the servings from the real deal. I ordered a Ruben sandwich and was shocked to learn that they used equal parts pastrami and sauerkraut. Then, adding insult to injury, they instert a piece of bread in the middle in attempt to add more height. The result? You have equal parts of bread, "pastrami", and sauerkraut. Then they toss in a slice of cheese to still be able to call the sandwich a Ruben. This is not acceptable. It may be okay for a captive audience to come here for a change of pace. But this is not a go-to spot for a satisfying delicatessen experience. read more

Good , but very pricey . I don't mind paying extra for fries with my $14 sandwich (smallest size), but potato chips are extra too. Complementary pickles were once unlimited, now you get just one. There were also once quick serve, but now have wait staff, so a service tip is required. Expect to pay $50 for two people. read more

Went here with a group of 6 after work, and encountered many problems. The food was good but it's not worth the money. Although our waitress was pretty nice and decent at first, she forgot our fries, the condiments we asked for, and did not stop by the table not once after she dropped the food off. Instead we saw her chatting it up with another table for 30 minutes. I would give one star but the other star is for the other servers helping us. TO TOP IT OFF.... we were grated 18% and our server did not give us our receipt (i had to ask for it AFTER we paid). We unknowingly tipped on top of grat, now here's our main issue... If the service was great then I would not be writing this review bc we are servers and we don't mind gratuity but... 1. to not tell us about the grat or even print the receipt prior to us paying.. 2. request extra tip on top 3. all for some decent then to poor service? no thank you, there are better late night options in this area. not worth read more

I ordered breakfast and a lunch to go. For breakfast I ordered the Simple Two Egg breakfast. Eggs, bacon, potatoe pancakes were well prepared. Really nothing special. I will mention the scrambled eggs were perfectly scrambled and fluffy. My first time for the potatoe pancake and I did not like how they were seasoned, but that is my thing, not the restaurants fault. 2-stars. (Think fresh frozen, throw on grill top) The service was good, single waitresses who also was the hostess. At the end of my meal she was a little slow, handling at least three different tables. Restaurant management takes the hit for not staffing correctly. Minus 1-star. Lunch was a Ruben, with sour kraute, thousand dressing on the side. The meat was a bit dry, but I did have it a few hours after ordering it. Waitress went the extra mile to package it in there smallest containers. Plus 1-star. Place looked clean and is beautifully decorated. I did not use the bathroom in this place. May try again as this place is open 24 hours. read more

Right off the highway as you're on your way to Houston from the north. A huge selection and breakfast is served all day. I did the lunch special (served until 4 - not sure if it's weekdays only.) Half a signature or deli sandwich + your choice of side. $9 for the regular, $11 for the New York size. I did the New York size smoked salmon signature sandwich + sweet potato fries. The sweet potato fries were shoestring. The sandwich was good. I wish I would've just gotten the regular sandwich and foregone getting fries. I wasn't that full after, but was satisfied. My party was not that impressed with the chicken and waffles even though the waiter recommended them. Would recommend stopping here for lunch if you're around. Open 24 hours! read more

Went here late night. Tried the cabbage roll, which was lukewarm and not good at all. Ordered a Ruben on french roll, no rye... it was super good. Also ordered the pasta alfredo with shrimp and steak. Now, thinking back on it, I shouldn't have ordered steak from a deli. But.... it happened. The shrimp, pasta and sauce were really good... the steak was tough and not cooked too my specifications, and I almost choked twice....But, other than that the service was good And overall the food was very good. read more

Great food but overpriced as usual. The staff is perfectly professional but you can tell they are struggling with staffing because the past two times I have been there the service has been really slow for pickup orders. The finest time I waited 30-40 minutes for two sandwiches but I didn't call ahead. Second time I called ahead because it was a bigger order and it still wasn't ready when we got there and we waited 15-20 minutes even though they had 30 minutes advances notice. read more
