Stumbled onto this place heading to the airport. With with all the delayed flights and the Pac airports. I figured it's probably best to eat before I go to the airport. This café had a lot of options to choose from and the people that were there were very friendly and eager to help. Food was great and came very fast as I was in a hurry. Needless to say I bookmarked. read more

Worst breakfast burrito in Houston, TX. Next time I'll try a rising roll perhaps. Their lunch menu looks good.

This is a short review on this place. I came around 10 or 1030 A.M. to buy breakfast but sadly their company stops serving breakfast at 10:30 am which is not right because usually around 1130 or 12 is when people have lunch and it is still morning time at 10:30 am I am so disappointed in that. read more

Hi! i walked in here ready to order, they didn't even approach me, the lady was extremely rude. I mentioned I needed a menu she walked off, mumbling something. The place is nice but it was empty.. i asked if they were closed and she looked at me stupid. do not recommend !! read more

The online menu does not do justice to the options in food available in the cafe. Located in the strip mall near airport, the cafe still provides all food in disposable containers following covid norms. At noon the crowd was pretty decent even on a rainy day like today. Their vegetarian options are limited but certain items can be customized without meat. I got the oatmeal strawberry smoothie- yeah- I thought it sounded interesting and new, an item I can include in my breakfast going forward. It was light and smooth with flavor of strawberry, not very overpowering sugar - it was refreshing and yummy. We also got the Hummus sandwich with the cheese and broccoli soup, it was very fresh , again light and healthy ... it was good too. There is no table service, you need to order at the station ad get it to your table. They are very courteous and friendly though, and take time to understand if you have any dietary restrictions. Prices are normal. read more

0 stars for this place!!! , horrible service by the Indian lady the other girls are very friendly she always look angry and rude, I don't recommend this place it's all expensive and no meat in the salads barely cheese on it and if you order one more cheese or extra dressing everything you want it would be charge extra and I told the India lady that is in the register, and she rude it's supposed that the customer has the reason she had an attitude, she yell at me that day she gives the worst service ever , horrible, she never waits when you still not ready looking at the menu she rush me , in addition they deleted the only combo they had of soup and sandwich because everything is charged separately chips soda and sandwich everything apart , 0 stars for this place!!! read more

My sandwich was awful. Had to ask for more sauce just to eat it. Super dry chicken. Only one mushroom which I don't even think it's a portabella. Too much cheese and absolutely no pesto. Really disappointed. read more

Rising Roll Gourmet Cafe - Chicken Portobello Panini Sandwich - Delis Near Me - Houston, Texas

I rarely write a negative review, but I wouldn't recommend a salad here. They are incredibly basic and won't customize them. 1/2 an egg and 1/4 a tomato. Really? You're better off going next door to jimmy johns to get an unwich. If you come here, maybe try a wrap or sandwich. read more

The chicken sandwich tasted like a house slipper. I took one bite and threw it away, along with my $11.

I want her to grab myself a little brunch. The food was good and the prices are OK I'm just leaving it 3 stars because I wish I had more drink flavors such as caramel mocha vanilla hazelnut they only had plain lattes or cappuccino's even the frappe's were non flavor and sad to say that the combos does it come with a drink and to add to that breakfast menu options and at 10:30 which is not right because 10 AM through 11am s still morning read more

The Chicken Pesto Portabello hot sandwich on multi-grain bread with a small cup of tomato basil soup and a cup of water will run you exactly $9.73 after tax. It looks good at first with all that cheese filling oozing out while sitting next to a cup of piping hot tomato basil soup. After the first bite though, you'll realize you should have ordered a different sandwich. The cheese in the sandwich was very over powering and was pretty much all you could taste. I love cheese too, but this was too much. The soup was also disappointing as it was too salty. I usually finish my all food but I couldn't finish the soup. The party that I came with were not as satisfied either saying "I'm still hungry" and "that was pretty expensive for a small sandwich". I give it three stars though because I'm sure there are other sandwiches on the menu that may be good. I just ordered one I didn't like. For the price, we probably won't ever come back There seemed to be a lot of other customers there though, so there is something we don't know or they all have deep pockets and an acquired taste. With all that said though, everyone in my group was unsatisfied with our $10 sandwich meal. read more

Rising Roll Gourmet Cafe - $9.73 (after tax) Pesto Portobello chicken sandwich - Delis Near Me - Houston, Texas

I want to start off by saying it smells absolutely yummy when you walk in the door. Fresh breads & cookie dough 1st thing in the morning? How could that be a bad thing! It's very clean & the staff is really nice. I'd come here a few random times in the past. My most recent visit reminded me why I don't visit often. Unfortunately, the food isn't that tasty. My recent visit was for breakfast & I ordered the spicy grande burrito. Eggs, jalapenos, cheese, a rotel style tomato mix & sausage all wrapped in a flour tortilla. The eggs were nasty; reminded me of the eggs they used to serve for breakfast at school. As far as sausage...it's like that old commercial "where's the beef?!?!" And the few lil crumbs that were there had no taste. I ended up throwing it out halfway through. Look, I know it's not the same as making food at home & this isn't a taco truck but come on now. I'm sure it's convienent for those in the office buildings in the area, but don't think I'll be coming back any time soon. read more

After I placed my order I noticed one of the food preparers did not have on gloves and used her bare hands to grab jalapeños out of the main dish. The other person who prepared my food had on gloves which was a decent sign but whatever bacteria if any was on the other persons hand who was making whatever she was making was still there. The food was really good but seeing a food preparer stick her bare hands inside of other food just did not sit well with me. read more

Don't normally leave bad reviews but they were very stingy with the meat they put on the sandwich. Very plain tasting. Everyone was very nice. If they weren't so chinchy with the meat, I'd leave a 5 star review. read more

food was alright very bland as is but not only that ladies were very rude they rushed me to order and then there hair ended up in my food the food is not worth the price read more

(say it fast) Their eyes sing 'roll'! OK, slow down now. My eyes rolled when I thought this would be a fast-food joint, but it's not. Yes, there are some pre-prepared cold items for those on the go. But for sit-downers, they prepare breakfast and lunch items, and with good fresh ingredient quality. Best of all: you can order online for pickup, or for delivery. They opened this chain location this week, and the six customers I talked to either love it or at least say it's OK and a refreshing change from other delis in the same strip center. So, no more "Breakfast at Tiffany's" (referring to the previous establishment's name), but I'll use some quotes from the movie to preface sections of my review with relevant meaning. [- - - - Menu - - - -] Holly Golightly: "A girl can't read that sort of thing without her lipstick." - - - It takes some time to read the menu. There is a large variety of sandwiches, wraps, paninis, but... Holly Golightly: "Do you think she's talented, deeply and importantly talented?" Paul Varjak: "No. Amusingly and superficially talented, yes. But deeply and importantly, no. " - - - there are some basic ingredients, a variety of freshly-baked bread envelopes, and names given to the plethora of combinations. Nevertheless, the choices are generally appealing and some have unique ingredients here and there. Then, there are the usual salads, and soups. The bakery is focused on the sandwich breads, but they also make some cookies, cinnamon rolls, muffins and bagels. [- - - - Service - - - -] Holly Golightly: "It should take you exactly four seconds to cross from here to that door. I'll give you two." - - - There is no table service; it's order and pick-up at the counter. But, they do their job fast. The owner is quite active explaining things, making sure the staff is responsive, asking customers for feedback, and making sure they are satisfied with their order. [- - - - My Breakfast order - - - -] Holly Golightly: "You could always tell what kind of a person a man thinks you are by the earrings he gives you." - - - The quality of the breads is a key factor, and for me, it's the cinnamon roll. This was a good cinnamon roll. I got this one off the rack, fresh, and still warm, with lots of cinnamon and not too sugary. The bread part was soft throughout, denser than usual bread in consistency, and not baked-hard on the edges. It's big enough to split and share. Spicy Breakfast Panini: This was excellent. They use Tandoori naan bread, and that is a perfect balance of carb to protein (taste-wise). - - - They offer three varieties of Duncan brand coffee. I tried the Toasted Cinnamon coffee and it was much better than I expected, and excellent for this type of eatery. The best is the Pecan flavored coffee, though. It gets cheers from all my deep-rooted Texas genes. [- - - - My Lunch order (another day) - - - -] Holly Golightly: "You mustn't give your heart to a wild thing. The more you do, the stronger they get, until they're strong enough to run into the woods or fly into a tree." - - - I ordered the combo ("pick a pair") of half sandwich and mini-salad (passing up the sour option). Cuban Sandwich was ordinary, and not what I would call authentic or as good as El Rey's. The Cobb mini-salad was good and fresh. [- - - - Facilities - - - -] Paul Varjak: [reaches into his pocket at the Tiffany's counter] "We could have something engraved, couldn't we?" Tiffany's salesman: "Yes, I suppose so, yes indeed... the only problem is you would more or less have to buy something first if only in order to have some object upon which to place the engraving... You see the difficulty... " - - - I am glad they had the money, and didn't just redecorate. This is a total make-over remodel, in a contemporary style with all-new everything. There are plenty of tables. Paul Varjak: "You know what's wrong with you, Miss Whoever-you-are? You're chicken, you've got no guts. You're afraid to stick out your chin and say, "Okay, life's a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness." You call yourself a free spirit, a "wild thing," and you're terrified somebody's gonna stick you in a cage. Well baby, you're already in that cage. You built it yourself." - - - There is a 2nd-rib-high wall separating those in a line to the counter from customers at tables. At lunch, that was needed, as it was pretty crowded. [- - - - Worth it? - - - -] Paul Varjak: "So you're getting married, then?" Holly Golightly: "Well, he hasn't really asked me, not in so many words. " Paul Varjak: "Four you mean?" - - - Yes, I will be back. The prices are competitive with the other deli places. read more

Tried the mufflatta and the portabella pesto sandwich. The bread was fresh. The staff was friendly and service was fast. The sandwiches were good but not worth the price. I don't plan on going back We only ended up here because Schlotzsky's was closed. I left disappointed and wishing that Schlotzsky's had been open read more

Rising Roll Gourmet Cafe - Mufflatta on flat bread - Delis Near Me - Houston, Texas

I'm only reviewing their catering, since that is all I have ordered through Rising Roll. I have ordered from Rising Roll for various business purposes for something around one year now. Out of the few catering companies that I use for my office, I would put Rising Roll near the top. They are punctual, my orders are always correct, and the catering prices beat other companies I have used. Their food is fresh and tasty, and they give ample portions of sandwich/wrap filling. I particularly love their Chicken Salad and Apple sandwich! I've done both breakfast and lunch catering and always get lots of compliments on the food. The delivery drivers are always friendly as well. We'll continue to use Rising Roll for their good variety, fair prices, and fresh food. read more

I came here with my nephew from Dallas, because he is a vegan. He had some sort of humas wrap and said it was good. I had the Italian on French bread. The bread was good. They are s bit chincy with the meat. They spread a condiment on the break, but it too, was very thin. For the price, I expected to leave full. Over all, I probably won't be back. read more

This was my first time in here. I ordered a breakfast burrito with no salsa and no tomato and I had to wait kind of a long time for it in an otherwise empty cafe. You literally put some eggs and sausage in a tortilla. That's it. They did apologize for the wait. Then I got to my car and my order was wrong. There was no sausage, just egg and a tortilla. So I had to go back and they told me this was what I ordered. I dont like tomato and had specified, no salsa, no tomato. They had interpreted salsa as sausage. Then I had to wait some more. The egg and tortilla only sandwich was good, at least the bite I had before realizing it was wrong. The sausage burrito that they gave me was suddenly colored a mysterious orange on the inside, from what I don't know. The sausage fat? Whatever it was, it did not taste great. 20 minutes and 1 bad breakfast burrito later I think this will be my first and last visit. There is a McDonald's around the corner. I would go there instead. read more

Yeah, no. This place is bad. Bad food, bad prep, bad cafe. I will never eat here again. 1/5.

Just meh. Sandwiches lack fillings although the flavor is good but the salads are pitiful, very basic and barely any meat in them.

Good place to quickly grab a bite for lunch. Check out that BB LT sandwich! Courteous staff and prompt attention are a plus.

I ordered a salad with Tuna and a vegan wrap. The salad barely had any greens, and only half an egg.. lol. The vegan wrap was extremely soggy and was falling apart once I got to my desk to eat it. Will not be coming back here again. Plenty of other places that will give you bang for your buck. read more

I was looking for a sandwich shop nearby for a quick lunch to go for my dad and me. We happened upon this place (near where we work) and boy am I glad we did. Best sandwich I've had in a while. Very fresh and tasty ingredients made the perfect sandwich! My dad is a fan of Rye and they had it...he was also impressed (says a lot from an 82yo man). We will definitely visit here again. Even the people were great! I will say, they should add a to go menu to every to go order because I wanted to order from there again and was having trouble remembering the name until I googled the area today. read more

I've been several times now and am taking back a star. It really is overpriced for what you get and the wait time can be very long.

Deli-style café. Great for breakfast sandwiches. A small chain out of Atlanta. I had a bacon, egg, and cheese panini and coffee. Good food.

Their sandwiches are delicious and they have a large variety to choose from, but it is quite expensive for what you get. I've only been for lunch and sandwiches are $5-$7 with no drink or side. They're not particularly large and some of the panini's are the smallest and most expensive. I'll still go occasionally, but only when my coworkers are going on "double-punch" days for their frequent shopper cards. read more

We beat the lunch rush so didn't have to wait long before getting to order. I decided on a half chicken poblano panini and garden salad. With drink it was around $10. Wasn't to impressed with the serving size to prize ratio going on but the quality was off the charts! All the meat, veggies, etc are cut fresh right there and prepared. Will be going back to try some of their other options. read more

First time to order and pick up. I ordered a sandwich it says it has mustard and mayo. Pick up drive back to office and open, looks good but did not put or give me any mayo or mustard!!!!! Now what! I'm screwed and so are they! Never go again! Tastes like S--t! Thank for screwing my day up even more! read more

Food was ok, but portions were small and customer service was abysmal.

Nice, clean deli. I had the chicken salad sandwich on honey wheat and it was delicious. Plenty of chunky chicken mixed with sliced almonds and celery. I also had a side of potato salad which was extremely moist and full of flavor. Should have gotten two portions, it was that good. All in all, I would recommend this deli for both value and flavor. Very close to the Hilton tucked back a little off the road. read more

We use Rising Roll fro a lot of small event at our office throughout the year. This past Friday we used them for or annual company xmas party. We had about 300 people. BEST experience!!!! Katie is very helpful and accommodating. The food was beyond excellent, the servers were fast and efficient. Great service!! I have very picky employees and the overall general consensus was good. I highly recommend them for any catering event you might have small or large. The food is always fresh and hot when it arrives!! read more

Chicken Milano goes hard. Place gets busy at 11:55ish so come early if you wanna sit down and enjoy the tables and oil and gas people watching. Place is a bit pricey but food is worth it. read more

I've only eaten in this restaurant once, but have eaten their catered food several times for work lunches. I tried getting salads (ceasar salad, cobb salad), but the lettuce is usually wilted, the dressing isn't very good, and who in their right minds puts undercooked pasta in a ceasar salad? Also, their salads and (and sometimes sandwiches) don't come with all the ingredients that are listed on the menu. Their sandwiches aren't really all that good, either, and 9 times out of 10, they find a way to screw up the delivery order. If you're looking to eat in the Greenspoint area, go to Piazzas. They have far superior salads and sandwiches, and they're cheaper, too. When I get an email from our admin saying that we're getting Rising Roll for lunch, I groan, and think about what leftovers I could bring from home instead. read more

Normal sandwich chips and drink . Nothing special for the price of $10.36. Seems kind of pricey to me for a smaller portion. Lots of other sandwich shops near by that are cheaper and have better options. read more

Cant stop coming here! The chicken milano panini is so delicious!!!! A little pricey but the chicken milano is worth it. The full sandwich is huge and filling so I usually order a half sandwich with chips and drink for $6something. My everyday lunch spot!!! read more

Love this place!!!!!! They have great Chicken Salad just to name one of my favorites. I also use them for office caterings. They have the BEST assortment of sandwiches for this. Also for a hot meal the Brisket Sliders with a side of Potato Salad is crowd pleaser. Katie is great at helping me get a lunch for the office lined out. Also a Great staff behind the counter. Always on time. Great experience eating in or calling for delivery !!!! I say GIVE THEM A SHOT. :) read more

Good Cuban sandwich. Very friendly staff, and clean. $7 seems a little steep for just the sandwich though.

This was my second time going for lunch. The first time was wonderful but it was also 1:30 or a little after. The guys behind the counter were extremely friendly and fast. Today, was opposite. The lady that spoke VERY little English was rude. I had three different orders. Buffalo chicken wrap-no tomatoes, 2 orders of crab cake sliders and a turkey cheezer. (Yes, I know you can order online and have it ready but my co-workers called me on the way to eat) Still should not have a been problem. Several people walked in at one time and it's like they didn't know what to do. I went ahead and paid for everything while they were making the food to be efficient. The non-English speaking woman was so concerned about whether or not I had paid for the food, she through the side of soup on top of the 4 sandwich containers which then slid to the side and ran over to the cashier to see if I had paid though I told her I had and showed her the receipts. I was too upset and just wanted to get out there that I forgot the chips that I HAD ALREADY PAID FOR. I remembered when I got in the car but I DID NOT want to go back in there. I will NOT return to this place. read more
