    Basket of fries and onion rings along
    Jennifer H.

    The nineteen seventies called and said this is where it is at! This place is so kitschy and cool! The decor is rocking the shag carpet vibes. The food and service are five star all the way! A must is the potato skins!!! Fabulous! A small menu but no choice is a wrong one. They come with a basket of fries and onion rings along with a heaping salad. Drinks are also on point!!!! Frozen espresso martini- need I say more?

    Everything here is well done. Steak is good though would prefer it not to be drown in butter. Rolls are soft and warm, fries and onion rings fried to perfection. The potato skins were much more like twice baked but still very good. Apple pie was delicious and a nice way to end the meal. Service was silvery lovely.

    Onion rings and fries
    Judy C.

    Reservations made ahead of time. When I arrived I did have to wait 10 min before being seated though. The menu is pretty straight forward. For drinks, I got the Margarita with Tajin on the rim (pretty strong, but small). All mains include a house salad (big portion), Butter Bread Rolls (wow super buttery and fluffy and crispy on the outside, reminded me a little bit of salt bread) and Fries/Onion Ring basket (crispy fries/good thickness, the onion rings weren't my favorite batter, it was okay). Opted to get the Skirt Steak as my main and it was cooked nicely, but quite salty. Service was good and attentive. Parking - complimentary valet and handicap spaces available Inside had a very Texas Roadhouse feel to it. Personally, don't think it's worth the price point for the quality of the meat.

    Skillet cinnamon roll

    Ambiance of the place is amazing. Traditional old hill country Texas decor and sounds of Kenny Rogers in the background. Get there early as it gets busy fast. Reservations are recommended. We ordered coffee and the skillet cinnamon roll to start. The cinnamon roll comes out hot with fresh dolloped icing on top. The icing slowly starts to melt all over the cinnamon roll and over the sides of the skillet. Amazing. We got an order of a hotcakes and the steak and eggs. The steak was so flavorful and had a great crust on it. Good traditional hashbrowns on the side. Pancakes were huge and cooked well. The only downside of the pancakes was the syrup that came with it. I think it was homemade, but it was grainy and not smooth like you would expect from a typical syrup. Not for me. Overall, really great breakfast and great experience. I'd love to come back for their dinner menu.

    This is only a partial review, focused on brunch. The restaurant is located right next to La Lucha and shares a parking lot with it. Weekend brunch parking can get crowded, but there is additional parking within walking distance. In my opinion, the brunch menu was a little limited, but the overall experience was enjoyable. The service was good, and the manager did a great job accommodating our large group and keeping everyone seated close together. The ambiance was nice and gave me a retro vibe, which added to the experience. The rolls were buttery goodness, served hot with a delicious honey glaze on the side. They were one of the highlights of the meal. The potato dish was also very good--more like a twice-baked potato than a traditional breakfast potato. It was loaded with bacon and cheese and drizzled with sour cream. The accompanying dip tasted like a green goddess dressing and paired nicely with the dish. The breakfast taco was fine, although I would have preferred strips of bacon rather than the bacon preparation that was used. The Old Fashioned was made to perfection, with just the right balance and not too much bitterness. Overall, everything was satisfying and filling. The portions were generous enough that everyone in our group took home a to-go box. I look forward to returning and trying more items from the menu.

    Finally made it here for brunch. The ambience is old school diner style. I'm not the biggest fan of the decor, but the food is delicious. We started with a drink. I had a frozen espresso, which was unique but my second time trying it in this form star Rover definitely has the best version compared to the other restaurant I tried. You can definitely taste the espresso in it so you know it's made correctly. The others I was with got the mimosa, which is also pictured can't go wrong with the mimosa. For our appetizers, we tried the biscuits and the potato skins both were 10 out of 10. For the entrées, we decided to share the steak and eggs, hot cakes, and chicken fried steak. Let's start with the hot cakes. They were fluffy, huge and made with perfection. The chicken fried steak came with eggs, but we didn't realize they would be on top. That was my least favorite part, but the flavor was still there. The steak and eggs were cooked perfectly. We got it done medium but we also didn't realize the hashbrowns would come with a cheese slice. I probably could've did without that but the combination of the steak, hashbrown, and cheese together wasn't bad. Service was a little slow, but our server gave us a complimentary round of drinks which we greatly appreciated so I was able to try their margarita nothing special, but it was still good and I love that they offered tajin on the rim. I will definitely be back to try their dinner.

    Food and service don't match the price point. This is Texas, so steak needs to be SUPERB. We had a sleepy server who would have loved to be anywhere but here at this cool concept. The menu is very straightforward - can literally just point at a picture of your desired protein and the rest is taken care of but would have appreciated someone to give an overview of the dinner pacing. The complimentary appetizers/sides are a nice touch. The milk rolls are yummy once you let the oil drip off - can make you slightly nauseous if you don't like your mouth filled with excess oil. The green goddess salad was very yummy. Overdressed but I could have drank the dressing. Unsure if these are unlimited refill, but I would have ordered more of the salad. We ordered the t-bone and chicken fried chicken. My fault for ordering chicken at a steak-focused restaurant, but I've had better fried chicken from actual diners. The almost $70 t-bone was very thin, so got overcooked likely sitting under a heat lamp.

    Star Rover replaced our beloved SUPERICA Tex Mex so we had to try it! They had very old school country diner decor and the vibes were cute. Reservations were already booked from 5-8:30 on a Tuesday, so glad they're booked and busy but wow! So we got sat the bar and got food and drinks. The bartender/server was so incredibly kind and took great care of us. We were able to split a whole steak between the two of us, and it came with 3 rounds of sides-- rolls, salad, onion rings and potato wedges. Cost was about $70ish for us! Not sure if this style or food is for us as I can't tell if it's marketed as casual or high end steakhouses but it's a nicer place for a casual bite for sure. In and out in 40 minutes.

    Had a great experience here this weekend! It was my first time eating here since the rebranding. The concept at Star Rover is one of a kind - you order an entree (beef, chicken, or fish) and it includes buttered rolls, a salad, and a generous order of fries AND onion rings. You can't beat that in this economy!! The salad was crisp & fresh, the dressing & croutons were homemade and so so good! The steak was perfectly cooked, tender and juicy, and the onion rings were honestly some of the best I've had in a long time. The frozen espresso martini was also a standout -- strong, flavorful, and a fun twist on the classic version. One thing to note: this place gets BUSY on Saturday evenings. The wait time was an hour long, so I definitely recommend making reservations ahead of time. Fortunately, we ended up snagging 2 seats at the bar and were able to cut our wait time in half. Ambiance was interesting; there were games set up on the patio where young kids were playing while the parents watched from their tables. Inside, the crowd was more mature. The vibe felt super casual but the food was steakhouse worthy! Shot out to our bartender, Brittany, she was amazing - super sweet and attentive despite being so busy. Overall, absolutely worth the visit!

    Use to be Superica - same cook - definitely recommend. Valet parking in lot, but additional parking is available in nearby lots. Stopped by on a Sunday without a reservation and was lucky to grab a patio seat - would recommend a reservation on high traffic days. We had the frozen espresso martini, the Fancy LITT (Long Island) and s house chardonnay. Enjoyed all - but martini was our favorite. We had the biscuits and homemade strawberry jam...YES. Advice - ask for a side of their sausage gravy. Also, the table next to us ordered the cinnamon roll and split it between 4 - they were super happy with their choice. We ordered the Migas, side of hash browns with everything added, sausage and a side fried egg. We shared everything and were very happy with our choices. The patio has 2 skeet ball games for either your little ones...or grown ones. Definitely staying on the repeat list.

    Brunch review only. Star Rover is a shadow of the previous Superica, which was one of our favorite weekend brunch haunts for the past year. This newly branded concept is all flash and significantly less substance. The decor has changed to include checkered tablecloths covering the previous wood and monotone dishware from the fun texmex. Service was fine, a little disorganized but improving. The complimentary dreamily-thin tortilla chips and delicious salsas are no longer served. The menu has significantly decreased in size for brunch, with now a handful of sweet options, some breakfast tacos, and a few higher end entrees. There are still à la carte items, but fewer than before. Breakfast tacos: Mediocre with somewhat doughy tortillas, pretty greasy chorizo, and lackluster shredded cheese. I also wasn't a fan of the paper ketchup container holding salsa, as it was difficult to pour and easier to smear. This breakfast taco was incredibly forgettable. Cinnamon rolls in a skillet: Cute concept, over the top preparation. The cinnamon rolls were absolutely drowned in butter, so much so I had to tear off the top to get any portions that weren't soggy. There was also so much cream cheese icing it was essentially all I could taste. When I actually tasted a bit of the cinnamon roll, the flavor and rise on it was pretty good. The middle portions were slightly underbaked, though some may prefer the more gooey texture. Biscuits and jam: Carried over from neighbor La Lucha, these biscuits and preserves are still dang good. Buttery, decadent biscuits with homemade strawberry preserves will always be a temptation for me. Hash browns: Super oily and didn't taste fresh. Also somehow comes with a slice of semi-melted cheese on top? Pass. Bacon: Still as good as previously, with a perfect thickness and nice chew yet still crispy along the edges. Thank goodness. Pancakes: Superica's hotcakes were a must-order every brunch meal. The flavor is similar, but the impressive size has now shrunk to normal pancake size and significantly decreased the novelty. I was told they would be fluffier, but after trying them a few times, I don't think there's a real difference. The warm syrup is still good. I had high hopes for Star Rover, but I don't know that I'll be back. Based on other reviews, dinner doesn't seem promising either. Superica, you are sorely missed.

    I needed to see what the hype was about.. I was in a rush my first time going (have a movie showing 45 mins after I walked in) so I didn't get a chance to try different foods and finish all my food at the restaurant. I will definitely be back though. The customer service was cool and the food was good. The onion rings and fries weren't fresh but I have hope the next time I come they will be and everything will be even better.

    Why 5 stars? Because I love the mix of casual and non. --- --- --- The concept of Star Rover is great: it's kind of an old school steakhouse, where you can order a $62 ribeye, but looking around the dining area, many people are in hats and shorts. Speaking of, I kind of skipped ahead in the story, but the idea here is that they have 9 main entrees on the menu and they all just come with the same sides: a salad, bread, fries and onion rings. The salad and the bread were top notch. I hate bleu cheese so I kept that on the side, but the green goddess dressing it comes with was great. It was a big salad too. The bread is covered in 58 ounces of butter, and swimming in it too. I could eat 100 of these rolls. My ribeye came out, and sadly, it was obviously very overcooked. I took about 3 bites and was really disappointed by it. I eventually had to just ask them for a new one, and I absolutely never do that. They couldn't have been more gracious about it though, and the second version was so, so much better. There is some kind of green substance on top of it, which I assumed was chimichurri, but it didn't really taste like it, so then I assumed it was something else. But later, I had a really heavy garlic taste in my mouth, so I think it was indeed, the chimi. The fries and onion rings were good, but my wife and I both felt like it was just a lot of fried food in the end. Not that anyone was forcing us to almost finish the plate, but if you put fries and onion rings in front of me, what do you think is gonna happen? We finished with some soft serve and pie. I ordered coconut, which was good, but incredibly super sweet to the point where it was almost too much. The ice cream hit the spot perfectly. We want to come back again for brunch! Note: small parking lot and it's valet only.

    Went to Steak 48 for a birthday celebration and was excited as I had seen so many photos and heard…read moreof this spot, it is very well known. Located in River Oaks area, very elegant classy decor, a great interior to celebrate any special occasion. Service was good, no complaints there. Food however, was not up to par. Not worth the price. I ordered the Filet mignon and it was good but Perry's steak is better flavor wise. The sides were the most disappointing of all. The whipped Boursin potatoes are almost identical to boxed mashed potatoes. The macaroni and cheese was identical to boxed or velveeta. The red velvet dessert was ok, a bit too sweet and seems more like the frozen chocolate lava cakes you except red velvet. I couldn't believe it, I never thought I would have this kind of review but it is the honest truth. I will not be back here. It is not worth the hype.

    My first time here was fantastic!…read more I got the beef wellington, a baked potato, and calamari. Beef wellington was cooked to perfection. The puff pastry was flaky, steak had good flavor, and the sauce paired perfectly. Calamari was standard. The ambiance was formal and very Texas forward. Great spot for a nice date night. Everything was a 10/10. My second time here was just alright. It might have also had to do with the fact that I went during Houston Restaurant Week and got one of their specials. However, the quality and service was just very different. Steak was ordered medium rare and came extremely rare. When we sent it back, they cooked it well done. Nevertheless, I would give it another try and recommend going outside of HRW. 8/10!

It was a ball of ice cream baked Alaskan style with basically no pecans. Just some odd cookie pieces in it. Had they kept the steak plan I would say this was the best steak in Houston I've had so far but I can't even say that. Sides didn't save it. Service was fine.
