    Although I still enjoy this mom and pop bagel cafe, their bagels haven't been as fluffy. Nevertheless, I love the atmosphere. It's very chilled. My favorite is their sunrise bagel with whatever bagel I'm in the mood for. All their selections are on the side. My least favorite is the one with salsa (cannot remember the name) but it's always so watery that I rather just get either blueberry or cinnamon raisin bagel with plain cream cheese.

    Ruben sandwich with thousand island dressing, sauerkraut, and melted cheese.  Chive cream cheese and a variety of bagel chips comes with.

    Finally a real bagel deli! Bagels are perfect! Light crisp in outside and hearty flavor. Absolutely the perfect bagel. The have poppyseed and salt flavors for you Nee Yorkers. Also many other flavors, my fav being the everything bagel. Had the Reuben on a poppyseed bagel sandwich, fresh meats, healthy portion with some bagel chips and cream cheese side with pickles. It was so good I had to heat half before taking the photo. If you're not used to a bagel deli, go try a sandwich. You won't be disappointed.

    No wait when we went but it quickly filled up- the bagels had a great crunch and then chew so super yummy. -Katy commuter: bagel w/ cream cheese and coffee(I got the blueberry with plain cream cheese) -Egg bagel(softest they have) with bacon, egg and cheddar-'sunrise' w/bacon The cream cheese was very light and tasty and they didn't skimp on it We shall return! Parking and seating were ample- seemed like a lot of online orders were going on.

    I've seen this place before but had never stopped. This place was popping this morning. An amazing spread of bagels and cream cheese. They have breakfast sandwiches. They also have lunch menu that looked tasty. It was so good. I can't believe I've never been. We had the Sunrise bagel sandwich with bacon. Mine on an onion bagel and his on an everything bagel. Had a mango berry breeze. It was so good and refreshing. They had a few tables outside. And quite a bit of seating inside.

    a variety of coffee machines

    I appreciate the warmth and comfort of the Bagel Cafe. This place is noticeably the real deal with friendly service, tasty bagels and good coffee. I especially enjoy their cheddar bagel yet find all their options perfectly textured and flavorful. I look forward to returning.

    Located in the Katy strip mall on Mason and Kingsland. The place is cafe style crowded on the weekend with family and kid that are leaving taekwondo. Great service, everyone in there is nice. The bagels are fresh and they go quick, what I love about the place if you like a certain kind you can call. The smoothies are fresh. This is a good spot for fresh bagels and cream cheese.

    Bagel selection!

    Bagel Cafe has been an INSTITUTION in Katy for years! So so so good. Great selection of Bagels, sandwiches and even baked goods. I think there are one or two more locations now as well. Cypress and not sure where else. Great little hidden gem. Plus, they back our local first responders!

    Half dozen bagels and got an extra bagel for free
    Kristyn M.

    The customer service is on point! The bagels are delicious, crispy on the outside and soft and airy on the inside. The cinnamon almond cream cheese is amazing! I've always seen the bagel cafe on yelp and finally got to try it out. I'll definitely be back to try other menu items!

    Bagels are delicious. Soft and chewy on the inside. Spreads are good. My favorite was the seasonal pumpkin.

    This was my first experience ever at a Portillo's. And wow! I have been missing out!…read more This location is humongous! The parking lot is huge. The inside has a ton of seating. We arrived on a Friday around 12:30pm and it was fairly busy. Many of the tables were occupied. The lady at the register was helpful and patient with us as this was our first time. We ordered the chicken tenders, fries, cheese sauce, Italian Beef and Sausage sandwich with sweet peppers, onion rings, and chocolate cake shakes (a must I've heard). Everything was delicious! My husband's beef and sausage sandwich took a little bit of time because they were making it fresh which was much appreciated. The chicken strips were good too. I got the comeback sauce and the Giardiniera sauce and both were really good. The cheese sauce was hot and super tasty. The chocolate cake shakes were delicious. Mr. Black Fine came around to each table to ensure everything was going okay. We told him it was our first time at a Portillo's and he couldn't have been friendlier. He also came around with chocolate cake shake samples, which was awesome. This place is yummy and the vibes were awesome. Can't recommend this location more! I hope to be able to come back if we are ever in the Houston area again.

We ordered a hotdog, polish sausage, Italian beef sandwich, french fries, queso, dr. Pepper shake. The hotdog, polish sausage, french fries, and queso were really good. They pushed the Dr Pepper shake on me (I really wanted the chocolate cake shake). I took three sips of the shake because I really wanted to like it (I like Dr Pepper and I like ice cream) but I didn't want to torture myself so I threw it away. The tables were a tad greasy but the restrooms were clean. I would come back for the hotdog and Polish Sausage!!!!

While visiting family in Houston we were excited to come across a "real" Mexican (as opposed to Tex-Mex...iykyk) taco shop. As soon as you walk in and see the Tijuana and Baja Mexico signs and decor you know you're in the right place. There's an open kitchen, allowing you to watch your carne being grilled on the open-flame grill. That charged meat smell is heavenly! Their guac is chunky and simple (nothing too fancy), hot sauces are tasty (and they have a kick!), tortillas are thin but strong -- holding the goods in just right. It's also nice that they have complimentary tasty, crispy pork rinds -- as opposed to the standard chips & salsa. Portions are ample! They definitely don't skimp on portions -- tons of meat and guac in their tacos and huge, meaty burritos! Prices are fair, especially for what you get! Their dining room is a tad small, but it's very clean and the a/c is good...there's also a nice patio outside. Service was swift and friendly. Food was good. A/C was poppin'. Parking was plentiful. All in all I have to admit that Tacos Frontera comes as close to good San Diego Mexican food as you can get...they would definitely be able to hold their own in San Diego!

    The food is absolutely phenomenal. It tastes authentic, freshly made, and just honestly addicting…read more My entire family love to come here and for a good reason. The price to food ratio is beyond reasonable, especially when put up against fast food restaurants (or just many restaurants for that matter) and can serve as a second or even third meal (assuming you don't get lost in the flavor) The staff have always been nice, so no complaints there The only complaint is that it can take a while for your order to be made, especially at peak times. Dining in is hard due to the lack of available seating (all first come, first serve), parking is very limited and you may need to park on the other side of the shopping complex. Last I ordered, there doesn't seem to be a clear way to order ahead Regardless, we still come here often and always have enjoyed the food

I especially love their Signature Garlic Herb bread. It's toasted perfectly where the outside has a slight crisp around the edges and the inside is soft and fluffy. It's really GOOD bread. I definitely prefer it over the likes of something like Subway, Jersey Mike's, etc. It's nice that they offer different sizes of sandwiches. There's the Nug (4"), Pinner (8"), and the largest size is the Blunt (12"). I ordered the Nug. It's just the right size to satisfy my appetite without leaving me feeling heavy afterward. I also love and truly appreciate the diverse vegetarian options on the menu. They're not just the basic boring raw veggies combinations either. It's super casual and laid back inside. Love their fun decorations. The staff are very friendly and helpful. There's a bar in the back with a large TV, allowing you to enjoy sports while sipping on a cold beer or cocktail.

I was still able to finish it. I'll still come back and maybe try something different next time.

Pat's and Gino's are a high A.... Tastee is a solid mid B. STILL GOOD. Would I go back? Yup. This is probably a good once a month kind of place. Minor gripe. Bread could be better.

    Different Kinds of Cheesesteaks--This One Deserves Its Own Lane…read more I think people really need to acknowledge that there are different types of cheesesteaks. Not all of them are made to be compared--some are just totally different styles, and that's not a bad thing. I've been wanting to try this spot for a while after seeing the debates about who has the best cheesesteak in Houston. The only thing that held me back was the location. I finally made the trip--and I'm glad I did. First off: customer service. Let's be real--food trucks sometimes don't deliver on this, but that was not the case here. Super friendly and attentive. It made a big difference. What I tried: * Chicken cheesesteak with shrimp - Delicious. Messy, cheesy, and indulgent. If you're someone who likes your cheesesteaks loaded with toppings like lettuce or tomato, this might not be your thing. But if you're into a bold, no-frills kind of sub? You'll love it. * Philly steak eggroll - Fire. * Fries - These were wild. Battered like fried chicken, perfectly crispy. I might honestly come back just for the fries. * Corned beef - Served Midwest-style, and the meat was on point. Tender and flavorful. Bottom line: I really enjoyed this place. It's not trying to be like everyone else--and that's exactly why it works. If I'm ever in the area again, I'd absolutely return.
