I order breakfast from here on Door Dash as they are one of the few restaurant in Montrose that have biscuits and sausage gravy. It is definitely one of the better one around this part of Houston. The waffle was just average here. It is good to see there are breakfast options in the neighborhood that is known for it's night life scene. I would order from here in the future. read more

I came to Midtown Bar & Grill with my Sunday Brunch friends. I love about this place because of patio seating, parking lot, convenience to major thoroughfare, split check and most importantly, it's located in the Gayborhood. Food was good. I studied the menu before arriving. I ordered Gyro Sandwich. The pita was fresh and soft. The meat was tender and juicy. The cucumber sauce was thick. The overall food experience was excellent. I just wish there were more options to substitute the fries. Service was also great. There were 2 servers at our table of 12-ish. I would return to try other dishes. read more

I could not give a worse recommendation or review for any place than I want to for this restaurant. You will never meet a more unorganized and inconsiderate staff in your entire life and I am not saying this off of one bad experience. I have been there multiple times and every single time it is the exact same thing they have no clue what they are doing and they really don't care to offer good service. Being in Houston there are way too many actual solid options to ever even consider giving a penny to this establishment. read more

It was ok. Food was kind of salty. Nothing crazy, but I will say the place is open pretty late, so it's convenient. I got the blackened catfish with the sweet potato fries, house salad, and mac and cheese, and it was a bit too salty. Comes with a lot of food for the price. Fair prices. The sweet potato fries were okay, but the real show stopper was the mac and cheese. I'd get it again. It was so creamy and delicious. One of the best I've had. My partner got the steak and egg breakfast, but he said the steak was too tough and salty. Sides were okay. Overall, this spot is nothing special. It's an average meal, but I wouldn't recommend it. 5/10 read more

Man, this place is hard to review. It's all the vibes of a great dive bar in a good location. BUT. The drinks are limited, the bartenders kept passing me up for walk-ups, and while the menu is huge, not all menu items are equal. Most food that my friends and I tried were underwhelming, but the gyro sandwich was absolutely bangin. It's enough to take this up from a 1-star place that I'd never go back to a place to a place I'd seek out for to-go gyro. read more

Not pet friendly. Come in with our pup to sit on the patio outside. Server said dogs weren't allowed, even though their google page and yelp both say otherwise. read more

We used to order from Midtown Bar & Grill at least once a month, but after a recent experience, we won't be returning. My husband picked up our online order, only to get home and find it was completely wrong. When he called and returned the incorrect food, instead of receiving a simple apology and resolution, he was treated with suspicion by the manager--as if he were trying to scam them--despite clearly bringing back the wrong order. The situation was only resolved when the waitress who made the mistake returned. Everyone makes mistakes, but the way my husband was treated made a bad situation worse. As regular customers, we expected better and are very disappointed. read more

Midtown Bar & Grill - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

Great little breakfast/brunch spot. Nothing fancy here, so if it's white tablecloths and champagne flutes you're after, better to move along. Midtown B&G is a no frills, but tasty thrills place where you can get a morning plate of comfort. Any of the breakfast plates are great, as are the omelettes. When I'm feeling "extra", the chicken fried steak and eggs with country gravy on the biscuits...YUM. I don't get that too often because I don't need "extra" on the waistline. :-) Pair any of that with a straight up Bloody Mary (no half salads on a pike in your drink here) and you've got a breakfast of champions. Most of the time I don't want fancy. All of the time, I want GOOD FOOD. read more

I have started going to mid town in November'24. While a little plain Jane in atmosphere the place makes up for in good sized portions, fairly priced, and good service. Even though a bit understaffed some days. Breakfast is very fresh and hardy. Big omelettes, plus a full menu breakfast lunch and dinner. I love the burgers, fresh toasted bun, iceberg lettuce, think slices of tomato and onion. The onion things are the best I have had in several months. Other trendy places may be busier but that's why we don't go There. Elvira is very accommodating for us and we are welcome. read more

Always good. Been going here for 30 years. Breakfast all day! Greek, lunch, all good. read more

This review is for delivery service ordered through Uber Eats. Arriving home late after a long flight and needing food, I ordered based on the 4.5 stars in the Uber eats app (yeah right...). The lukewarm soup and off putting greasy gyro I ordered were both bordering on inedible/gross. The gyro looked like it had been dipped in grease, sad wilted, brown lettuce haphazardly thrown on top. I had to use a paper towel to soak up the grease so I could stomach it. The fries that came with it were barely warm and also soggy with oil. No ketchup provided but the fries seem like they were cooked in oil that wasn't hot enough and they just absorbed the oil. Gross. Those went in the trash. The soup was meh, big chunks of chicken were nice but it didn't taste all that great. And it was not hot despite my apartment being less that 10 minutes from the store. I recommend avoiding if you can. read more

This place is a hidden gem. There is a ton of take out business, but I always eat in person. Daily specials and breakfast available all day. There is a full bar that is underutilized. Ask for the red frozen drink. yummy. It's like the diner on Seinfeld. Waitstaff is friendly and accomodating. Easy to park and great people inside. read more

Well I was honestly not expecting the good to be this good. We came here because it was the closest thing to our hotel and I did not want to dress up for breakfast. Very casual place. But food was amazing. They took a very long time to get my order in but my understanding they were under staffed which is very understandable and do not mind since I looked like I just got out of bed. read more

The CONS: The location's parking lot could be paved over better. The tables and chairs can stand to be updated. The food temp could be more uniform. The food was on the bland side. The PROS: Customer service was great. The server was efficient and thoughtful. The food was hearty and substantial. The portions were generous. The decor is a typical diner or that of an 80's house living room and sun room. I had the traditional Bacon and Eggs with toast, grits and coffee. Overall: I will return and try lunch and a cocktail. read more

This is a no frills place which is open 24 hours. The staff is always very pleasant. I always get the turkey wrap. It's very tasty though it's never made same though. Sometimes it has chopped turkey, sometimes slices, one time it had bacon, you have to ask for mayo and sometimes it has cheese sometimes it doesn't. It kinda makes me laugh. read more

No-nonse comfort food in the heart of Montrose. Early Bird breakfast can't be beat!

A no-frills, simple diner with good food and friendly service. Our server was so sweet. My husband had migas breakfast and enjoyed it, loved the beans. I had a Belgian waffle with some add-ins and it was tasty. What more can you want? read more

Came here for brunch because we were slow rolling our lives one Sunday morning, not because we were hung over, but because we were just literally busy and not in a rush. We sat on the patio because the weather was so amazing!! In fact, it was a little bit chilly for my Houstonian bones. I ended up getting a tea, and it tasted a bit sour. I don't think it was fresh at all. I ordered the omelette with pico and other stuff. It was so delicious! This place is cool because it's literally open all night long, so if you are needing a late night fix, early morning breakfast or mid-day meal, they got ya back! read more

Had my most recent in person breakfast with my daughter here. When they are grown up it is hard to let go. I asked her to ease of the gas all week, don't tailgate, etc. She pushed back, sitting just to the right in the photo. It was awesome - the biscuits and gravy - her logic and attitude. I got a bit teary, but that's what sunglasses are for... And those are my two reasons for eating here #flavories read more

I was unable to even try the food.. I wasn't even acknowledged upon entrance. Staff seems as if they're busy but the building is at half capacity.. I'm not sure what is going on with their morning crew. Maybe I'll come back when it's near empty and possibly receive subpar service! read more

Covid19 times Plenty of free parking. Staff (Ms. Jay) was really nice and good. I went there for a liquid dinner (ha!) and enjoyed a crown apple martini with a lot of green olives. Sat out on the patio and people watched. I plan to go back soon and eat. I'll update my review! read more

Stopped here for lunch quite often when I was in Houston for work. Never even realized they serviced breakfast. So, here I am eating breakfast. The place is what I would consider a hole in the wall kind of restaurant. no I man that in a very good way. Even well before COVID it wasn't hard to find parking or a seat inside. The parking lot at the building is pretty small, but I think they have additional parking somewhere else. The atmosphere is really cool. They have old wood floors. They have paintings all over the walls. You'll just have to see to understand. The staff there has ALWAYS be great. They are friendly and attentive. The food has always been fresh when I've been. Over all, I REALLY enjoy eating here. Give it a try if you are in or traveling thru Houston! read more

Because of the hard freeze I didn't have any ice so we really couldn't experience the bar but I must add that the hero salad that we ordered the portion to value was there the meat taste of excellent I wish I could've ordered just a pound of that and family owned business if you're in the midtown area and yell like Mediterranean food and you do you love kind of a homestyle bar atmosphere I think you'll enjoy the place the food definitely made it to value because we couldn't really drink anything so I definitely would have to go back when I have ice but I'm still giving it a five star review because the Giro meat was off the chain and delicious read more

The food here is really good. The parking can be hit or miss, but the service is great. I feel they have good prices. I've always felt they had a positive vibe anytime I'd come in. Always recommend this place read more

The restaurant staff are very nice. However the food is just so-so, more like side of the road diner food that I would eat because there is nothing else for another 100+ miles. I think a perk to this spot is that it says its open 24 hrs and it has a full bar, that can be attractive in the evening perhaps when nothing else is open. But the food presentation and taste just didn't hit for me. read more

Located on West Grey in that edge of Montrose to Midtown transition zone with a decent parking lot (not to be a size queen but Byzantio's was bigger) as an actual dine-in joint it is an easy decision to make for breakfast before or after a trip down to the courthouse. The breakfast special has several different iterations depending on whether you prefer pancakes, freedom toast, or a goyim bagel. As one of the chosen people I would not trust the bagel at a place like this - there is not one of my people in sight in the kitchen with their sensible chest hair poking out from behind a soaked mostly unbuttoned shirt with a silver Star of David necklace - but everything else at a diner is fair game and does not require hardy shtetl genes to sufficiently prepare. I do not often eat breakfast during breakfast hours; brinner is the life for me. However at normal breakfast hours early in the morning this place was not super busy so it was pretty casual and refreshing to dine in at an old timey diner where most things move slow and are pleasant. The entire restaurant, both inside and outside patio, had one waitress working the entire thing. It took quite some time to get some coffee but that is fine, she had other things to do. The food came out insanely fast after we ordered which always bothers me more than slightly. I know they didn't go in the back and slaughter this food and cook it in under three minutes. So it was either pre-prepared and sitting there for the next asshole to walk in and order this dish exactly, or even worse it was prepared for someone else who had a hissy fit and walked out, so it was already made and just transferred to me as a hapless victim of circumstance. Food should take some time to cook, prepare, plate, and be sufficiently mired by the gentlesir that prepared it because this is his baby, he made this, and gave this life. Even if this came out of a supermarket package and was just heated up in the microwave still give me the illusion that this was made fresh just for lil' old me. I mean, it took significantly less time for the food to come out than it did to even get a first cup of coffee so that tells you something about how this was WAY 2 QUICK. Allow more than three minutes to pass between ordering and delivering food so we can all live that lie, like we are a 1950s Leave It To Beaver married couple both sleeping with the pool boy (separately, not together) but we pretend like we're not because we're not monsters and we don't want to shatter the illusion of normalcy to our neighbors and our impressionable children who will grow up, work for Wall Street, and destroy the world's economy just to make an extra shiny nickel for themselves that they can contribute to the Clintons. The freedom toast was not remarkable, but serviceable for a roadside diner. It was definitely not the local high marks of challah freedom toast at the Canopy or Avalon Diner. The bacon was rock hard and shattered upon touching from a fork, like shatter (or a dab as the children call it) so I was not a fan of that at all. I like the juicy, sizzling, and seductive kind that you have to eat in secret and keep a stiff upper lip about around the tribe when they discuss how they never eat pork or pork products for some silly reason. It is not meant to be fine dining, so it works as a roadside diner that is a comfy slice of Americana in the middle of the city which is more entertaining and whimsy than the Denny's or the ihap. read more

Decided to check this place out last night after hearing my friend talk about it countless times. I was excited to go on a slow Monday night since it would give us more time to decide and what not. The server at first was nice in our group we had both males and females. She started with the whole ladies first thing which I get. However this caused her to go all over the place in the ordering. I believe this is what lead to part of the issues. We ordered items for the table that she decided to spilt up into 5 although there weren't five of us so when it came to check out I had ended up with 4/5 somehow for two people. Not sure the math on that. Next came the price of beers which makes me wonder how many times they screw people over with the bills. For whatever reason, the coors light on my bill was $8.50 each! She told me as we were leaving that someone didn't pay for three beers which I said okay I'll pay for since most had left. However each of these were $4.25 each. She also added in another 4/5 of the appetizer that should have already been charged amongst the group. She also charged us for the Mac and cheese that was brought by mistake and she decided to leave when we requested the actual item. I brought up my concerns to the server along with manager working at the time. The manager attempted to correct it and told me she'd take care of some of the appetizer which I was fine paying the portions we had. However in the end I am now having an outstanding charge for when she was supposed to ring in the beers and decided to add everything else she forgot to do. I've attempted to call to correct this further today but keep getting told the managers not there when I called when they asked me to. Overall I enjoyed the food. The chicken fried steak was good. The Mac and cheese had a bit too much butter for my liking and was more like a cheesey noodle soup. The mishap with the bills really turned me off from this place. read more

I ubereats some mac and cheese from this place. First off, in Ubereats they're named as Macology. Second, I mean the pictures speak for themselves.. this is not what we wanted TO SAY THE LEAST. Almost $30 for this?! My livid husband went to complain and the guy just said "sorry this is how we sell it" and didnt bother to give us the money back. If I could id give them zero stars because I seriously thought I was being punked. read more

From the outside Midtown bar and grill doesn't look like much. However if you choose to dine here you wont regret it! this is my favorite place to come when I want something classic and affordable.

I love it here and definitely recommend! The food is also insanely yummy and the portions are huge! read more

Midtown Bar & Grill - (1) Pancake Breakfast Burrito 4. French Toast Breakfast Coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Houston, Texas

Didn't like the food here. Greeted as I walked in and told to sit wherever I liked. Various tables were unclean and a lot of tables are near the walkways/doorways. Service was okay; server got my order wrong and forgot to bring me something I asked for. Food was not good or bad, it was edible, and definitely overpriced. Plenty of parking but you may have issues with other drivers who are trying to take this place's parking. Interior decoration is dated and the place could use a touch up and a good cleaning. Things didn't seem particularly clean, so I'd be wary eating here; I noticed what appeared to be mold in a cream package (thankfully I don't drink cream). Maybe they can fix this place up so I'll just give them 5 stars because I feel bad for them. read more
