4.5 stars if I could. Food…read moreFried mushrooms Super juicy and bouncy. They are delicious on their own without ranch in my opinion. 4/5 Hickory burger So meaty and beefy. Perfect if you are or not on your period. Fries were mediocre. 5/5 Veggie omelette Very filling with their hashbrown. Their hashbrown is fluffy and crispy from the brown edges. Extremely delicious with ketchup and pepper. 4/5 Chicken fajita omelette 4/5 (as told per friend) Didnt try but I guess I could trust my friend. It was hefty and had biscuit and hashbrowns! Key lime Pie 10/5 So good and light! The whipped cream was beyond fluffy and not stiff (didn't taste stabilizers) and the custard part was perfection and not too tart or too sweet! The graham cracker crust was sooo moist and I could eat the crust alone! Service 10/10 Lady was so kind and accommodating since we were playing card games. Did not feel rushed on but and took our order perfectly! Ambiance Chill and friendly. Perfect for late night with friends or family.

Keep in mind that this restaurant is loud due to the amount of people. Def if you're going during high traffic it'll be hard to talk to each other. Our server Trey was really nice and felt like a super honest dude when he shared his favorite dishes. The chicken fried steak was delicious along with the waffles ? It's been a minute since I've been impressed with waffles. And the marinara sauce that comes with the cheese sticks oh my goodness. Probably the best marinara sauce I've had by far ! Would definitely come back to try more food. I will say I didn't care for the Mac and cheese. Mash potatoes were solid though

This is one of the newer Saltgrass Steak Houses, now located in Gulf Gate…read more Although the downtown convention center location is waaaay closer for us, dealing with paid parking or convention crowds isn't worth it...unless we MetroRail, but that's a whole other adventure I'm not always willing to take. We've been to this location SO many times now. The staff of young servers are all great. I think we almost always get Devon or Christian (hey, guys!). And they have to put up with my partner's lame dad jokes. :) I always get the salmon and veggies. Beau likes their prime rib on Saturday and Sunday (it runs out though!). Don't fill up on their bread. Or their salads... save room for cheesecake, y'all. This location has a very large private dining room, a bar area, main dining, and outside patio. And plenty o' parking.

We went here with my parents for dinner and a couple of drinks, hoping to have a relaxing and…read moreenjoyable evening. Unfortunately, the service was extremely disappointing. We sat at a table in the bar area, which wasn't particularly busy. There were still several open tables and plenty of room at the bar. We ordered a couple of draft beers and a frozen margarita, and somehow it took about 15 minutes just to get our drinks. To make matters worse, the drinks were wrong. The margarita was served on the rocks even though we specifically ordered it frozen, and when we questioned it, there was an argument about what we had ordered. The tall draft beer we ordered came out as a short. The waitress who took our order wasn't the person who delivered it, so apparently no one was checking the order before bringing it to the table. I also ordered soup and a salad and never received my soup at all. Throughout the evening, we had to repeatedly try to flag down a server whenever we needed anything. Once we finally got someone's attention, it would take another 10-15 minutes to get a drink or whatever we were requesting. It was incredibly frustrating and completely took away from what should have been a relaxing night out. We've been to other locations and have never experienced this level of poor service. I also remember that when we first started coming here, a manager would regularly come by to check on the tables and make sure everything was going well. That no longer seems to happen, and unfortunately, based on this experience, I can understand why. This location really needs to focus on properly training its servers to know what they are serving and making sure orders are being checked before they reach the table. The bar service also needs some serious attention. Taking 15 minutes to pour a draft beer or serve a frozen margarita that is already prepared is simply unacceptable, especially when the bar area isn't even busy. It's frustrating because this location is only a 3-minute drive from us, but after this experience, I'd rather drive 20 minutes to another location just to receive decent service. Hopefully management takes this feedback seriously because the food and drinks are enjoyable when the service is actually there. We just shouldn't have to spend the entire evening trying to get someone's attention.

Luckily our server was able to move us to the covered outdoor seating after a little while which was a little better. The covered patio has fans. However, bonus for sitting outside is that they're having a promo during HRW where happy hour drink specials are going on all day. The food and drinks were all yummy though. We got the yum yum fries for the table to share. I ordered the duck duck shroom pizza and the aperol spritz. The portions of everyone's food were huge so I'd say a good bang for your buck.

Getting seated was a little chaotic. Indoor seating was pretty limited and not managed well. We end up sitting on the patio (still pretty toasty around sunset time). The giant pretzel we ordered for appetizer was excellent, highlight of the meal. The sourdough pizzas were pretty thin, overall I'd give the pizzas a 3/5. Of the 4 pizzas we tried, my personal ranking: 1. Spicy Goat 2. Duck Duck Shroom 3. Heirloom Margherita 4. Sweet & Spicy Pepperoni. Service was also disorganized and a little slow. I'd come back if I'm craving that pretzel.

She informed me that each cocktail was specially crafted by the "head bartender" and even let me try some samples. I believe at that time, I tried the Loaded Mashed Potato Balls and they were delicious/unique. This time around, I ordered the chicken Alfredo via DoorDash and had it delivered to my job. I can confidently say that my order was freshly made and was still indeed warm when it arrived. The sauce was nice and creamy and paired well with the fettuccine noodles and diced grilled chicken. The portion of the pasta was satisfying and was enough for me to eat about 4 servings from it. The ambiance of the restaurant is very lowkey and chill but nicely decorated and well lit. I would consider this restaurant and specifically this location a hidden gem.

I celebrated my wedding anniversary and birthday at Mimo, and it was my first time visiting the…read morerestaurant. I've had Mimo on my radar for a couple of years, but somehow I never found the right occasion to finally give it a try. Well, celebrating both my birthday and wedding anniversary seemed like a pretty good reason! I must say, Mimo had to fight hard to earn those five stars. The experience was memorable, not necessarily because it was perfect, but because it wasn't. The imperfections, oddly enough, are what made it memorable. Let's start with the menu. There aren't many dishes, which is generally speaking a good sign these days. There's really no excuse not to use fresh ingredients when you're working with a smaller menu. At the same time, I wouldn't say the offerings were particularly adventurous. That said, the quality was definitely there. We started with the Fritter as an appetizer, and it was super delicious. The combination of fried zucchini, corn, and that touch of honey somehow really worked! Then we ordered a pasta dish each, under the common assumption that a pasta dish in most Italian restaurants (including the ones in Italy) is supposed to be filling. Well... no! These were pretty small. I ordered the spaghetti al limone, while my wife went for the gnocchi. Both were good, although the spaghetti were cooked somewhere on the borderline between al dente and chewy. The corn in the gnocchi also felt a little alien, like it didn't really belong there. Still, we couldn't deny that the flavors were good and the ingredients were fresh. Oddly enough, we were still hungry, so we ordered a second dish each: the Pork Milanese for me and the Pesce del Giorno for my wife. And this is where Mimo saved the day! The Pork Milanese, with mortadella and pecorino cheese on top, was delicious. And the polenta that came with my wife's dish was one of the best I've ever had. Interestingly, these dishes were disproportionately larger, more than making up for the minuscule portions of the pasta dishes. So, I guess it all worked out in the end! Another date saver was the service. It was outstanding. Attentive, friendly, and exactly what you would expect from a restaurant trying to create a special experience. Then came dessert: the Zeppole. It was good, but nothing particularly special. To me, it tasted like churros made with a dough that incorporated ricotta. Not bad at all, just not something I'll be dreaming about later. And that was our experience at Mimo! I think the review probably benefited from the fact that I was there celebrating a special occasion. It was a somewhat strange experience, with some ups and downs, but we genuinely enjoyed it. Would I be back? Possibly... Four stars stretched to five? Yeah... FIVE Stars!

My friend had the "Bodacious" hamburger sliders, came with two. Hers had bbq sauce, a whole grilled jalapeño, smoked jalapeño mayo, bacon, crispy onion and American cheese Their beef is sourced from cattle from 44 farms in Cameron TX and when I say, those burgers were juicy and delish...THEY WERE The beef was so flavorful. We didn't see onion rings on the menu so that's why we got the queso, but as we were eating other patrons got some. I was so disappointed cuz, I wanted some. The bartender said they're not on the menu because of the fryer ...they have to do something (I can't recall) in order to make them. Oh well...EVERYTHING we ate was fantastic. The regular margarita that I got (no salt on the rocks) just was tart not smooth so I don't know if its the mix or the tequila (or both) Bartender female black hair and bartender white male VERY sweet and down to earth Support local business Support local farmers

When we were finally shown to our table, we were greeted by Luis (who will our server). Luis was very accommodating and had a great sense of humor. Even with the indecisiveness of some of my friends, Luis was patient and not only gave some great suggestions, but also was very knowledgeable with the menu. Anyways, this restaurant has been open now for seven years and I have always liked the design of the place. The way they kept the roof pitch in the main dining area to make such a small space look more spacious. Of course, that does cause the place to be on the loud side of things. But for being seven years old, the place is well kept and in very good condition. As for the food, I had decided to go with the salmon tartare bites and the lobster roll as my appetizer. The salmon tartare was cut up salmon mix with avocado and places on a crispy rice cake that gave it texture and crunch with every bite. And the slice of jalapeño on the top of each bite gave it a perfect kick of spice. And the lobster roll had to rich flavor of the lobster and butter with every bit, yet the bun was not soggy at all. For my main course, I had the Nasi Lemak, which is a yellow curried cod with grounded peanuts drizzled on top of it for added salty flavor and texture. The cod was perfectly cooks and moist and the curry did not over power the flavor of the fresh cod. And I ended the night with their bread pudding. The soft and fluffy bread pudding sat on a caramel sauce while pecans was the topping. With the vanilla cream on the side to pair with everything, it was the perfect dessert to make my dinner there a pleasant one.

Great service, delicious food, high quality ingredients!…read more Our server was incredibly attentive to us without having to appear every ten minutes to interrupt our conversation. When you first walk in, the interior is dimly lit, warm, and welcoming. The arugula salad appetizer was the perfect balance of light and flavorful with a good peppery kick from the fresh arugula. The Nancy cakes were simple but comforting, and with the roe made it an incredible experience. We also tried the lamb tartare and the burger, and both blew our minds away.

I was actually pleasantly surprised, it was spacious, shaded, and really comfortable. We started with the Nancy Cakes, which are always a 10/10 and easily the highlight of the meal. We also tried the yellowtail aguachile with roasted poblano and sunflower seed za'atar, which was just okay--nothing particularly memorable. For my entrée, I ordered the burger and specifically asked for the aioli on the side. Unfortunately, it came on the burger, and there was so much of it that it completely overpowered everything else. Coming back after a few years, we were hoping to be reminded why this place is so popular, but overall we left a little underwhelmed. I'm not sure we'd go out of our way to snag a reservation again.
