The ordering process is at the counter and you self seat and there is also no service (like Torchy's). We tried a couple appetizers and the beef for the main.

I had heard great things about the cafe at this new location, and had even tried their former location on Hillcroft a couple years ago as part of TooGoodToGo. While the concept is casual, the restaurant itself is very polished and feels like an upscale cafe. There is plenty of seating indoors as well as a huge patio outdoors. We opted to sit on the patio on a (rare) nice Houston day. The tables were spacious and the patio seating was very comfortable. We ordered the Kofta Kabob and Chicken Kabob specialty platters. These platters come with your choice of two sides - we went for the Fried Cauliflower, Tabouli Salad, Hummus, and Muhammara. The meats were so good and hit the spot. The Kofta Kabob had a complexity of flavor to it; so many spices that blended together really well. I will say that the post-meal burps of these spices were...smellier than usual. The Chicken Kabob was also flavorful and had a nice smokiness to it from the grill. I liked the slight crunch provided by the char along the edges. If I knew how to make chicken like this, it would be my daily meal prep! The Fried Cauliflower had a nice sear to it with lots of flavor. The Tabouli Salad and Hummus were comparable to those I've had at other Mediterranean places. The Muhammara was my favorite of the sides! It is a dip like hummus but also incorporates tomatoes, red bell peppers, and onions, among other spices; there was so much flavor to it and I could snack on this all day. The included pita bread was large, fluffy, and piping hot - perfect for dipping between the two side dips we got. Service was quick and friendly. The employee taking our order behind the counter was friendly and gave us the recommendation for the Muhammara - great rec. When our food was brought out and we had questions on some of the ingredients, the staff was very knowledgeable and knew right away what everything was.

Just admit you messed up and take ownership of your mistakes to help a customer out. - Fourth she mentioned that other tickets have been lost today and other foods have been stolen before. This just shows how disorganized this placed is. We were able to ask for our money back but it was a battle about it. I was disappointed because we wanted to support your business but at this service? Heck no! Do not come here. And from reading other reviews now we did not miss on the food.

My order is perfection: Italian with vinegar & oil, mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and hot peppers. The Italian comes with prosciutto, hot capicola, genoa salami, and provolone cheese. The signature seeded bread is tasty all on its own, but also crusty enough to hold up to the mayo/vinegar/oil situation happening inside. Adding hot peppers gives it just the right amount of kick to keep things interesting. And even though the sandwich is basically as long as my forearm, it never feels overly heavy or dense while you're eating it. I always tell myself I'll just eat half. Next thing you know, I've devoured the whole thing and I'm sitting there pretending to be shocked. Their sandwiches are simple in the best way. No gimmicks, no unnecessary frills, just good bread, good meats, and the right balance of oil, vinegar, crunch, spice, and salt. Houston has plenty of great food, but a proper hoagie is not always easy to find. PrimoHoagies scratches that itch perfectly.

I'm glad we have Ike's Love & Sandwiches all the from San Francisco in Houston and wouldn't mind…read morehaving more locations in town. This is the one and only location here and a great stop for all kinds of sandwiches. Their menu includes innovative offerings and iconic flavors, essentially the best of both worlds. If you're craving a classic or simple sandwich, you can get that. However, if you're looking for something special or out of this world, you can also get it. Ike's specializes in sandwiches with their Dutch Crunch bread and Dirty Sauce, both unique in its own way. Whether you're a meat lover, vegetarian, vegan, or on a gluten-free diet, their menu has it all. I personally am not a super fan of the Dutch Crunch bread since I find it a bit too harsh on the palate and somewhat dry, but love the Dirty Sauce (make it extra or on the side). I enjoy subbing the Dutch Crunch with either French or Sourdough. With over 300 unique sandwiches on the menu, there's a sandwich for everyone. My favorites have been the Menage A Trois (halal chicken, honey mustard, BBQ Sauce, real honey, pepper jack, swiss, cheddar), Ike's Reuben (pastrami, mack Sauce, purple slaw, gouda), Joker (all beef meatballs, fried zucchini, Ike's red pesto, ranch), and Grant Pinkerton, a Houston exclusive (Pinkerton Brisket, pastrami, BBQ aioli, provolone). All of my sandwiches have been stuffed and tasty, worth it! However, I find some menu items to be subpar in quality and flavor (chicken strips). The service is typically quick, efficient, and friendly. There are more than a handful of tables inside and some out on the patio. The shared parking lot can get very crowded as it is packed with lots of other businesses.

Here's a polished Google review version that keeps it honest but ends strong:…read more Review: I've been an occasional customer since this place first opened. Honestly, in the beginning it was pretty rough, slow service, incorrect orders, and the sandwiches just weren't as good as what I was used to getting in California.

The sandwiches have been fresh and really tasty, and the customer service has been solid. I also spoke with Jose, and he mentioned he's been working hard to turn things around, and it definitely shows. Not sure why they don't have more locations yet, but I hope they expand soon!

Mac & cheese, potato salad, and creamed corn. And both types of puddings! The brisket was so tender and fell apart easily, which also went very well with the spicy bbq sauce. The chopped brisket was tasty too and went great with all the sides and the piece of bread. Everything was so good and to the point, which made it such a comfort food. If I really had to nitpick, I felt the potato in the potato salad was slightly underdone and crunchy, but not a big deal. Mac & cheese hit the spot and wow, the cream corn came out hot and was such a hit! The surprise standout for me was the banana pudding.

Stack Burger in Houston, Texas was an overall decent experience and a good quick stop if you are craving burgers while in the city. The restaurant is located right on a busy main street area, which gives it a cool local street-food vibe, but parking can be a little inconvenient since there is only street parking available nearby. Depending on the time of day, you may have to drive around for a few minutes to find a spot. One thing to know before visiting is that there is no indoor dining area. The restaurant is very small and everything is ordered through an outside walk-up window. It honestly feels more like one of those hidden local burger spots you randomly discover while driving through town. Even though the setup is simple, the atmosphere still had a nice local charm to it. The staff were very friendly and welcoming during the entire visit. They greeted us right away, answered questions without any attitude, and the service was pretty quick considering how small the place is. Customer service definitely helped make the experience better. For food, I ordered two burgers without fries or drinks. The burgers came out fresh and hot, and the portions were decent. Flavor-wise, the burgers were good and definitely enjoyable, The meat and toppings tasted fresh, but it was missing that "wow" factor that makes you immediately want another one. Even with that being said, the burgers were still tasty and satisfying enough that I would probably stop by again if I was in the area and wanted something quick. Overall, Stack Burger is a small local burger spot with friendly staff, simple ordering, and decent food. It may not completely live up to the hype for people searching for an unforgettable burger experience, but it is still a solid place to grab a quick meal. Between the location, the street-style setup, and the welcoming service, it has its own charm. I would personally give Stack Burger a 3 out of 5 stars overall. read more

The wings were excellent, having meat that was tender, moist, and easily came off the bone. I was particularly impressed with the Cravin' It sauce which is a mixture of several different sauces that imparts a delightfully unique flavor. The deep fried boudin was not quite as good as the wings or as other kinds of boudin I've found in Houston but was still reasonably tasty. The only drawbacks to the experience were the homeless man who hassled me for money as I was placing and waiting on my order as well as the fact that they were out of drinks (The menu shows them serving iced tea and homemade lemonade). The credit card system was also down at the time, but I was able to pay using CashApp, so it wasn't a problem. Such issues were really relatively minor, though, and given the quality of the food and friendliness of the service, will not keep me from returning to try some of the other menu items.
