    Food-- Philly cheesesteak: 5/10- super cheesy but mid, it's missing something flavor wise. The fries were crispy and cooked to perfection but I'm also not a fan of these types of fries. Added peppers and there were barely any in there /: Service-- They were kind, quick & attentive. Ambiance-- Went mid day a lil after lunch time and it was quiet with a couple customers eating indoor.

    I was rather impressed with the cheesesteaks here. They were really well seasoned, though I could see how they could come off a little high in salt. The fries were perfect! So crispy!! Service was quick and friendly, offering suggestions on how we could modify our order. Quiet and decorated with cool old school signs.

    This place has some great cheese steaks. The fries are decent too. The restaurant is small but clean. The service was also good.

    This location has plenty of other options as well, but I've only had the cheesesteak, regular with not gravy.

I especially love their Signature Garlic Herb bread. It's toasted perfectly where the outside has a slight crisp around the edges and the inside is soft and fluffy. It's really GOOD bread. I definitely prefer it over the likes of something like Subway, Jersey Mike's, etc. It's nice that they offer different sizes of sandwiches. There's the Nug (4"), Pinner (8"), and the largest size is the Blunt (12"). I ordered the Nug. It's just the right size to satisfy my appetite without leaving me feeling heavy afterward. I also love and truly appreciate the diverse vegetarian options on the menu. They're not just the basic boring raw veggies combinations either. It's super casual and laid back inside. Love their fun decorations. The staff are very friendly and helpful. There's a bar in the back with a large TV, allowing you to enjoy sports while sipping on a cold beer or cocktail. Glad they are in the area. For sure I will be a regular here. Just thinking about their bread makes me hungry.

I must say, although the customer service was great, the sub didn't really taste like anything. It was flavorless. This is the second time it's happened. But it's all good. I was still able to finish it. I'll still come back and maybe try something different next time.

Everything was fresh, and the lemon pepper wings were fried hard just like I like them. The sweet tea was perfectly balanced and not overly sweet. The fries come plain, but you can add their special seasoning, which tastes like a mix of Old Bay and a few extra spices. They also have a parking lot, which is always a plus. Definitely stopping by again when I'm in Houston!

When I got my food back to the hotel, I found a long black hair in my food. I called the place where they insisted this was my hair and nobody there has black hair. I clearly did not eat the sandwich. I had ate the Brownie and ice cream and drank the coke, but after an hr or so threw everything up. Weirdly, to get the refund for the botched food order, I had to text images to the owner who debated that it couldn't have came from his store. When I texted him about the Brownie, he wanted me to prove by playing in the throw up there's Brownie chunks in it. What a weird experience. Planning to call the health department to report this place. In a interesting text, the owner had shared within the same time of my order with hair, another customer had called in complaining about black hair in their food. Not sure what is happening here, but I'd stay away. Since throwing up the brownie, I'm fine so it was something they ate doing here, stay away

    Looking for a good southern loving kitchen in old town Katy? Don't miss this spot. This has quickly…read morebecome our go to spot in Katy, TX as there is such a large variety on the menu. You can come here for dinner or lunch. Today we got the classic burger and a build your own sandwich. The serving sizes were hefty and we definitely left with a happy tummy. The food was fresh and high quality. The wait staff was accommodating and so friendly. We even got to speak with the manager who made us feel like family. There was a large number of pies to select from which honestly was the toughest part of the whole experience. We settled with the key lime pie which was such a great choice but will definitely be back to taste the other types of pies. Lastly, this spot was bustling. We came around the lunch rush so there was a line. However, the line went quick and the tables flipped pretty quickly. We didn't have an issue finding a table and the wait staff was on top of it. This is a family friendly spot that had a southern, homey feel to it. Can't wait to be back for those pies!!

    Been here twice now…read more Great key lime pie. Food is good and the place has a nice atmosphere. The first time a nice lady waited on us in take out line. She was a friendly and nice lady. The next trip was tonight. We stood in front of the pie & ice cream counter and no one came. There was 4 younger folks standing by the registers area and they did not even acknowledge our presence or the folks that walked in behind us. I finally walked the 4 feet to the register to get the young man's attention and let him know we would like ice cream and a pie. He seemed a little put out at first but, in the end was pleasant to deal with. Nice place worth trying. They just need a little more awareness on folks coming in and giving them some guidance on where to order and acknowledging their presence. Welcome and can I help you down here would go a long way.

    I'm going to withhold torrential criticism of this establishment since I am new to it and I don't…read morewant to discourage folks however there are certain cautions that I think folks considering Harvey's should bear in mind. There is a dine in option however the place is relatively small and they have quite a busy "To Go" service so it is akin the having a meal along a busy sidewalk. Please don't misunderstand, if your option is to consume your meal in a facility or in your car it is likely more convenient but that ends the contrast. Because it is o "To Go" oriented for instance if you order gumbo (which I did) you will be given a small plastic spoon and salad (which I ordered) will be segregated (Like olives grouped together, feta grouped etc. ) in a container "To Go" container making it impossible to 'toss' without making a mess or using your hands. Let's address food which I have mentioned. Gumbo is akin to a Manhattan style fish chowder, not objectionable however not gumbo. The Greek Salad I gave already described with the addition of the fact that my dressing had solidified. When I pointed it out to the folks taking orders it was replaced however in this respect I'm glad I ate in...without a microwave it would not have liquified. Look, I am not an idealist, This is a sandwich "To Go" place I don't fault the owners at trying to make every square inch of a rental place earn money however the 'dine in' option is a convenience not an ambience. The 'gumbo' was not and the salad was a generous portion of lettuce, fresh vegetables, adequate feta however the initial dressing and the serving container for 'eat in' was disappointing. Next time I will order a sandwich which is a Deli goal.
