Arrived at 1:15 and placed order. Food arrived at 2:30, after inquiring as to the hold up. They lost our order and the order of several other tables. The manager was unapologetic and rude. She was a tanned-skinned woman with naturally dark hair that was bleached blonde, and a slender build. She said she "would take care of us." We received no compensation for the wait and lost order. She walked around the restaurant reminding her staff loudly that, "I'm not giving out free deserts. Nope." The food was good, but the service will have me unable to return or recommend. The owner was nowhere to be found. Apparently she comes once a week. The business needs better oversight if the owner is going to be so absentee. 15% gratuity for parties of 6 or more. It was charged before sitting down and evaluating service. The only service provided is they bring your food out. Everything else you will do yourself. If you have a large party I would not let them know, and be willing to be split up. AVOID AVOID AVOID read more

The service was great. They tell you where to sit which was not common to me. Especially with the restaurant being empty. Price for two was $52.00 very expensive especially for ordering two sandwiches with fries. Probably won't return. Many older generation later arrived. read more

We love this place. Good is always fresh and comes out quickly. Lots of good options- sometimes too many options. Save room for dessert because they are unbelievably delicious. We had a piece of German chocolate cake and it was so good no one remembered to take a picture of it read more

The food is very good and the service is super fast. Although the price is a bit higher than I would like they make up for it in the portions and the quality. The seating is a bit tight with smaller tables but overall this place is a must check out simply for the flavor and portions. Compliments to the entire kitchen the food is very fresh and the flavor combinations are impeccable! read more

We stopped by this local restaurant because my mother worked at the original restaurant as a teenager. You order up front and then sit and wait for your food. There is complementary crunchy bread. The staff is very attentive and made sure that we didn't need any refills and that all of our food was good. They also wore their masks correctly. I ordered the Duet Combo: garden salad with cilantro dressing and 1/2 6th Street Sandwich with no meat. I really liked the salad and the dressing, and the sandwich was okay. I would recommend this restaurant for lunch if you are in the area. read more

Sandy McGee's - Duet Combo: garden salad with cilantro dressing and 1/2 6th Street Sandwich with no meat - American Near Me - Richmond, Texas

Food is amazing. Just can't afford it very often. Prices are high but I guess you get what you pay for.

The food deserves 3 stars. The broccoli cheese soup was on point. My spinach bacon salad was awesome. Although the chicken salad was nothing special the croissant it came on was very tasty. The service was alright but there was an employee hanging out at the bar constantly on his phone. Other workers were asking him what his problem was. Several different people approached him about it. It's one thing to have staff issues behind the scenes but when your customers can see this there is a big problem. read more

Tried this local place while visiting Sugar Land, tx. It was a surprise to find this place was sort of like an upscale, although very friendly lunch counter. The menu items were written on the wall, and you gave your order at the entrance, paid then got seated. Arrived just before the lunch crowd. I ordered a mushroom/Swiss cheese burger, with fries, and a vanilla milkshake (made with ice cream, topped with Whipped cream, but I had to ask for the cherry, which they gladly gave me two) . So good with the burger & fries. My lunch partner got a Blue cheese burger. I would have preferred my fires to be a bit crunchier, and seasoned but they were not. The wait time was really very quick, and the food arrived fresh of the grill. I should have specified a medium burger because mine arrived really almost charred, maybe this is the Texas way? Overall the food was good enough , very filling. The best part was the shake. I so wanted to try their desserts, which the cashier said were made on the premises.I would return for a slice of apple pie or German Chocolate cake , it looked so good. Maybe another time. The surrounding storefronts were interesting but many seemed closed, maybe because it was a Saturday and the Fort Bend courthouse which was nearby was closed? I saw another table order a chicken salad and that puppy must have weighed 5 pounds, it was so big. Big enough for three to share! read more

Historic Richmond restaurant with antique decor. Modest menu with sandwiches, soups and salads. Very basic but quite good.

Where to start.....let's start with those damn little garlicky toasts. Lord have mercy for anyone avoiding bread, because these little yummy toasts will have you saying to hell with it....I'm eating the bread. This is a cute, charming little hole in the wall but most definitely worth a trip. We went when it was slow. I know better to go at lunch time, especially when there's slim pickings in that area. We had great service and the food, pretty delicious. My recommendation is don't skip the tuna and chicken salad.....they are to DIE for and those little toasts I mentioned before, load em' up with the salads. We tried the broccoli and cheese soup (good but watery). My hubby had corn and crab chowder (he said great flavor) but again really watery. Now the chilled avocado soup was a great surprise and yummy in a very unexpected way. Perfect for hot summer day. Chicken tenders were just average (nothing special) but once again you really need to stick to the fresh prepared salads. They are unbelievable!!!! In my opinion the prices were a bit high but I'd go over and over for the salads and toasts. I'd probably just get them to go. read more

Always has good food. A little expensive but tasty Mikes place is my favorite. Give them a try.

Always great and fresh food love the half special half sandwich, soup and fruit plate.

A classic, been going there since they were in their original place, in the old house! Great menu and great food and service!

As someone who's been coming here since a kid I'm very disappointed. Starting off, I made an order online. Usually you can walk to the bar and be taken care of. I stood there for almost 15 mins. The girl at the bar looked like she didn't know how to manage. Multiple times she said I'll be right back. Not coming back with any orders and picking up the phone instead. Then another looked at me and the other man standing there and said "I have a bunch of hunger faces looking at me" And did nothing to help. Besides the service the food isn't what I remember. I love the broccoli cheddar soup. The flavor was great but no pieces of broccoli??? I felt like I was eating queso.. my sandwich was burnt toast, they hid the burnt side and left the less burnt side visible. I'm not one to complain and understand everything has changed since covid with multiple places. It's just sad when you want a childhood comfort food and it just doesn't hit the spot. read more

Loved it food was delicious and gave off a home comfortable vibe and the staff was amazing and so nice!!

I ordered the Chicken Salad sandwich with a side of broccoli cheese soup and carrot cake for desert. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Hospitable staff! Great restaurant overall!! read more

Sandy McGee's - Carrot Cake - American Near Me - Richmond, Texas

My wife and I eat here almost every Saturday, so I figure I'd give them a review. First off. After a year of this pandemic crap, Sandy McGee's still keeps things clean and sanitized. Some places we've eaten seem to have gotten a bit more lax. We always see the employees wearing masks. Ok, maybe once or twice an employee will lower their mask to answer the phone. Tables are spaced apart to honor social distancing and they offer hand sanitizer at the register. Now for the food and service. When you walk in, they have menus on a side table. Look over the menu and proceed to the counter to place your order. Not that difficult for most, but I guess a few people have challenges with this process. They will bring out your food to your assigned table. Sometimes it might take a the food longer depending on the number of diners. They don't have a huge kitchen and they do receive a lot of take out orders, so be patient. We usually get a duet which includes half a sandwich with a small salad or fruit. Portions are big, so the prices will reflect that. You know how most places will bring out a little cup of fruit? Not here. I want to say it's at least 2 cups of fruit. And it's not your typical cup of grapes. The fruit salad consists of pineapple, apples, strawberries, grapes, bananas, kiwi (sometimes), various melons and some seasonal berries. The sandwiches I enjoy are the BLT, chicken salad, egg salad, turkey/cheese. The variety of green salads, if order as an entree (not duet), are huge. I usually get the Mr. B's. It's a large dinner plate and includes grilled chicken breast. After you place your order they give you a basket of bread crisps. Their cheese/broccoli soup is very good and we use it as a dip for our bread. Prices seem fair for the amount of food you get. As they say, you pay for what you get. Service has always been good and friendly. When we walk up to the counter the employee greets us, if that's important to you. After that, there's really not much interaction with the employees at least for lunch. At dinner, they start using wait staff/table service. My only complaint is they don't have a lot of dinner items that interest my wife and I. It's basically the same menu unless they run some kind of dinner special. However, having a sandwich or large salad isn't a bad dinner. Over all, we've always been pleased with Sandy McGees. read more

This local establishment has long been a favorite. We bring our out-of-town guests here for lunch and it always impresses. Not the usual fare, the food is always fresh and well presented as well as delicious. I highly recommend it! read more

This is a good place for a quick bite to eat. Expect to spend more than $10 per person, and it's well worth it. I got the BLT and avocado. It was delicious. It came with chips but I was too full to eat them after the sandwich. The place is small and they make the most of the space. The desserts looked yummy but I'll have to get one next time. I saw sundaes and carrot cake, there were several others too. Parking is on the street and can be kinda tricky if it's your first time. Lunch is usually very busy, you may have to park up the street and walk a bit. We will be returning. read more

Sandy McGee's - BLT and avocado with chips. $10 - American Near Me - Richmond, Texas

We drove from Alvin to visit this small town jewel. The atmosphere was so quaint, the people were fabulous. The food was EXCELLENT! Best sandwiches we ever had. I also tried the famous broccoli and cheese soup it was delicious! Take a ride to old town Richmond visit the shops, have lunch at Mcgees so much fun today! read more

A friend introduced me to this great restaurant - I was eager to bring my husband - I knew he would love it. The quality of the meat in their half pound hamburgers is a joy for a carnivore like myself. The side dishes are excellent and large servings. My friend's friends only order the chicken salad - which is quite popular - half of the people in the restaurant seemed to have ordered the chicken salad. This place is NOT just about the chicken salad. I am eager to go back and have the shrimp - I have it on good authority (Sandy stopped by our table) that I will love it! read more

My mother is a big fan of this place, and has wanted us to go for a long time. Personally I wasn't very impressed. To begin with while it definitely has a small town charm, the service overall left a lot to be desired. We arrived later in the evening, and there was not a large crowd. The waitress was less than enthusiastic. I ordered a hamburger and they made it well done, it was burnt to a crisp. Not really the way I like a burger. My father likes his coffee black but was brought creamer, and the waitress spilled it all over the table. While my father and I attempted to stop the pooling spill she just walked off, and then later found someone to clean it up. But the nonchalance was notable. For dessert we ordered banana pudding and it was the worst banana pudding I've ever had. It tasted like whipped cream with a hint of banana. The three stars are because my parents enjoyed their meals, and from what I nibbled on they had tastier choices. I'd go back to see if I came on an off day, but I'm not in any rush. read more

It's good food! But the wait time is ridiculous!! Especially when they only have one register. Maybe they should cut back on staff & upgrade to a POS system. I mean there were like 4 workers hanging around doing nothing and when the swinging door to the kitchen was open there was a "waitress" standing there on her phone. The food and wait time isn't worth the price. 10/15/15 Picked up a philly cheese steak with a broccoli soup and a BLT with avocados but on a croissant instead of the nut bread. With a side spinach salad. And a bowl of broccoli soup. All was delicious but for $36 ridiculous! read more

Best sandwiches ever! This is the cutest little sandwich shop in old town Richmond. You order at the counter then they give you this basket filled with delicious,buttery crusty bread pieces. Don't know what they call it, but it's heaven. I always get the turkey club croissant & it's excellent. The reason that I gave this place 3 stars is that sometimes the service is a bit lacking. Everyone is always friendly but the last 2 times I was brought the wrong order. Nothing too dramatic to keep me from coming back. If you are in the area, give them a try & don't forget the desserts which are worth the extra 5 pounds you will gain! read more

This is one of my favorite places to have lunch. Sandy McGee's is located in the historic city of Richmond Texas. The BEST desserts- must try the pecan pie! The service is impeccable and food, no matter what I order is delicious. Best quality of produce and fruits. I suggest ordering the side salad with a scoop of tuna with avocados- yummo. read more

We were in the area and were starving... We stopped because it was the first one our GPS and we wanted to try something different than Starbucks. Honestly, we were impressed. First of all, it is trully UNIQUE. The ambiance, the style, the decoration, the whole setup thing. It is not too well lit but is ok. If you are legally blind, it is not easy to get your way around. But if you use a white cane or someone guides you, I would say go for it. Really nice place.. VERY calm and quiet. Was embarassed by our kids talking LOUD, like really loud lol while everyone else was enjoying their meals QUIETLY. LOL Felt weird and ackward as to how calm it is. They serve food, salad, desert. They have hot cocoa that they bring in large too go cup. I was disappointed that it came in cold. Had to ask to reheat it. Which the barman was very kind and happy to reheat it in a mug before putting it back in my to go cup. Why would they give you a nice mug for coffee but a to go cup for hot cocoa? I don't know. Coffee is like those commercial coffee machines at work, where you get up and get your own coffee. Free refills. Not bad. I would say on all their menu, the cheapest was hot drinks about $2 I think. Big piece of cake or banana pudding are like $6 & up. Liked their desert, but a bit pricey. Did not have food. But did see other people's plates. Seem appealing. Believe it or not but I love their restroom! LOL The decoration, the sink. Different, unique, one of a kind. Staff are all warm and friendly. Very patient, understanding and hard workers. So you get in, on your right, you will find 3 baskets with 3 differents menus: one for dine-in menu. One for catered menu. One for deserts. Walk straight, order at cashier and go sit. You are handed a number. Someone will bring your order. If you are familiar with "La Madeleine French Bakery" style.... it is kinda like this. Except that this is more unique (minus the pay/take a number/get seated). Please take a look at the pictures I took. Loved the decoration!!! read more

Great place in old town Richmond. My wife and I have eaten every sandwich and salad on the menu over the last couple of years. Had lunch there today with an associate Pastor from my church. They have removed some tables, spread out the rest and clean them as soon as people leave. The staff all wear masks as do the customers until you get to your, assigned, table. We were there an hour and a half and I saw nothing that wasn't done correctly. Service was first class, and the prices were very reasonable for this area. read more

This is my families favorite restaurant. My kids ask to celebrate everything here! The food is so yummy ( I love the chicken sandwich and fruit salad), drinks are awesome, and the desserts are to-die-for. I can't pick just one to recommend but my husband says Jills Cheesecake all the way. This place is locally owned (not a chain) and you can absolutely tell they use quality, fresh ingredients. read more

One of my favorite places to go. The environment, the staff, the owner...it is all great! My family loves the food and especially the dessert! Sandy let us host an event here and it was handled 100% wonderfully! All our extended family and friends who drove quite a way to come were all pleased with the food, the atmosphere and the staff. I recommend this place to anyone who wants fresh, delicious food with a bit of home comfort and TLC along with it. I recommend Mr. B's salad, French Dip, City Secretary, Club Croissant, Onion rings (so tasty) and the desserts are all AMAZING. Thank you Sandy for being consistently delicious. read more

This place is known for their soups, sandwiches, salads and fruit. But literally the BEST burger in town hands down!!! The jalapeño cheese. Add a cup of the broccoli cheese soup to take it up a notch. It never disappoints, great spot! read more

Can not believe I have not reviewed Sandy McGees yet!! Such an adorable little spot in the heart of downtown Richmond! If you have not visited the shops and boutiques in downtown Richmond, you are missing out! Come shop and for sure have lunch or dinner at Sandy McGees!! I love their sandwiches and everyone is in love with their broccoli cheese soup. At dinner you can bring your own bottle of wine! The place is so cute and has soo much history! Do wish they had a little bit bigger of a menu or maybe a rotating one. That's truly the only negative thing I could say! Love this place and bring everyone here! read more

I have eaten at this and the old Rosenberg closed location for 20 plus years. The last three times in only a few months we have ordered takeout for staff and it is flat horrible and their whole lunch menu used to be really great. Now just old salad greens, no meat on the sandwiches, toasted garlic bread is stale and it's expensive for sub-par dining. I continue to try hard to like this place, the max out sandwich was always the bomb ,but I'm wondering if there has been a Mgmt and staff change. Unfortunately I just can't eat here anymore until they get meal quality back. read more

The place was packed, nobody wearing masks. They have tables literally 3 feet from each other and right up to the door. None of the staff wore masks, maybe the hostess. Food was okay, super expensive for what you get. Owner stood behind the bar with no mask on. Don't go here, unless you enjoy restaurants in ultra conservative small towns in Texas where the quality of the food matches the quality of the people. read more

So we came here for a bit to eat after the Ft Bend County parade. The broccoli cheese soup was amazing, but the egg salad sandwich was not good at all. It lacked any flavor and the same goes for the spinach salad. My husband ordered a hamburger that he had to send back back because the patty was so over cooked. Sandy McGees did try to make it right by bringing him another burger, and while we did take the replacement, he had to eat it home because everyone else at our table was done eating and ready to go. read more
