I want to thank Manager Todd Kunz, our server, Jessica, Chef Arthur for a great conversation and Chef Javier for the amazing food. Server Travis and Admin. Shelby. Menu changes during the season, chicken looked and waffles amazing. I had the burgers fries were brined and ketchup is home made with spice. Candied bacon appetizers were beyond tasty but that desert CAKE OF THE DAY was amazing. I ATE IT AND DIDNT ASK THE NAME of it. WOW. Open room concept with outside seating. Cloth napkin style with flip flop relaxed atmosphere. AMAZINGLY LARGE BAR AND IN HOUSE BAKERY. Strong chairs for people my me and booths for the inner THIN in you. Lastly the he bathroom review; CLEAN AND FRAGRANT. Neat and in order. This one is VIRGILIO APPROVED

The crab cake is just ok. I prefer lump crab in a crab cake. The sauce served with the crab cake is…read moredill based which is my least favorite herb complement for crab. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't my preference. I would not get it again. The service at this location was poor today. Since it was pretty empty and all the staff members were surrounding the bar, I sat at the bar. The team was more engaged with their interactions between one another than checking on my party. Each request I made was unnecessarily delayed. When I requested a container which was within eyesight and reach of the staff, I watched the employee stop and check on 2 other guests and make them drinks BEFORE handing me the container. I asked a 2nd person behind the bar and they did a similar thing before passing a container to me. There were 4 people behind the bar and maybe 5 guests, but each time I needed assistance, I had to ask more than once. Also, I could see my food items sitting in the kitchen while the team was continually chatting in the bar. This is my 3rd time at this location, and it will be my last. Although I like some of the menu items, the service today has depleted my tolerance for this location.

Placed my order and the food came out quickly. The peach cobbler French toast was delicious and layered with flavor. The bread was still firm and not mushy, the microgreens and nuts added flavor and the caramel sauce wasn't too sweet or overpowering. The bacon was smoky and not fatty. The option for a French press for coffee was a nice treat and the addition of the Basil Hayden Bourbon shot was just right. Briana definitely lived up to her name of "The Goat" consistently mixing 2 to 3 drinks at a time while remaining friendly and engaging with her colleagues and customers. Brandon was a joy engaging with the customers at the bar and not missing a beat. Apparently, they have a random assortment of coffee cups and Brandon accurately chose mine. It really made me laugh. If you have a chance to dine here, check out the cool unisex restrooms with the industrial vibe. They are always clean and well stocked. Happy hour 3pm to 6pm during the week, awesome patio great for gathering with friends. Plenty of parking.

Great Drinks, Great Food & Even Better Vibes!…read more Sometimes the best experiences are the ones you don't even plan! I decided to stop by Whiskey Cake in Stafford, Texas, to check out their happy hour, and let me tell you, it did NOT disappoint! They offer $8 cocktails and appetizers, which is already a win in my book! Espresso Martinis: 5/5 Now y'all know I love a good espresso martini, and baby, these were DELICIOUS! So good that I had TWO! Perfectly made, smooth, and absolutely worth ordering again. And apparently, I wasn't the only one impressed! Once people around me started seeing my martinis, they were like, "Ooooh, that looks good! I want one too!" At that point, I was basically an unofficial brand ambassador! Spinach & Artichoke Dip: 5/5 Rich, creamy, flavorful, and just GOOD! What really stood out to me were the little crispy crackers they served alongside it. I'm so accustomed to spinach and artichoke dip being served with tortilla chips or toasted bread, so this was a nice change! The crackers complemented the dip perfectly, and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite! Service: 5/5 Now, let's talk about Gori, my server and bartender! What a sweetheart! The restaurant was SUPER busy, but you would've never known it based on the attention and service he provided. He was kind, personable, patient, and took the time to answer my questions without ever making me feel rushed. And did I mention he made those delicious espresso martinis?! Gori definitely deserves his flowers! Atmosphere & Good Company: 5/5 But what really made this visit special was the PEOPLE! I was sitting at the bar and struck up a lovely conversation with a group of gentlemen enjoying lunch to my right. Then, to my left, I had the pleasure of meeting two of the sweetest ladies, Stephanie and Natalie! Y'all, when I tell you we had such a great time talking! It felt like catching up with girlfriends I'd known for years. We laughed, shared stories, exchanged phone numbers, and hopefully this is the beginning of some new friendships and future outings! And that's what I love about experiences like this. Sometimes you go somewhere just to grab a cocktail and a bite to eat, and you leave with so much more! Overall Experience: 5/5 Great food. Great drinks. Great service. Great atmosphere. And most importantly, GREAT PEOPLE! Whiskey Cake, you understood the assignment! I'll definitely be back, and if you're in the Stafford area looking for a good happy hour spot, I'd absolutely recommend giving them a try! LoveJones Eats | Good Food. Good Drinks. Good Vibes.

I want to start out by saying that the staff was great and had impeccable service. We showed up and…read moredidn't know we needed a reservation yet they were able to seat us with no issue. Sadly, that was where the good times ended. The decor is an eclectic mix of studio pictures from the attached photography studio. Random yet quaint. The hilarity of brown paper bags stuffed with white claws at the other tables lent a certain added character to the eatery. Certainly interesting. It is a BYOB establishment so you will be left drinking canned sodas or tea. Not a huge issue, but certainly sad. We ordered the lobster bisque as an appetizer. Fishy. I'm not afraid of fishy but I fully expect lobster to be sweet and the bisque to add a burst of creaminess. It was very obviously not fresh lobster. For entrees we ordered the lobster Mac and Cheese and the Blackened Stuffed Flounder. First, the lobster was no less fishy in the Mac and Cheese which was bland and not very flavorful. Secondly, the flounder was a huge disappointment. It wasn't blackened so didn't have that familiar character flavor profile. It was soft throughout. Like a pile of bland mush with zero flavor or texture. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't previously frozen and possible microwaved. To fail on all levels beyond the service is inexplicable. Sadly, this will not be on the rotation of wonderful restaurants to visit in the Kingwood area.

Desert- Bourbon Pecan Pie, chocolate cake with cherries. , chese. 0-10 review = 3. Nothing we ate was bad. The filets were tough and. Chewy, sauces were very off and not enjoyable. The pecan crusted chicken was dry and the sauce on top of it was too sweet The lamb chops were thoroughly enjoyed by the guest, who ate them All of the desserts could've been sent back because they just weren't any good. The ambience and atmosphere was great because you could hear each other. Talk and enjoy conversation. However, my all in all score of this restaurant is unfavorable. I won't be going back. The reviews that I have seen in the past are nowhere close to what was reality. The best thing that I ate tonight in the restaurant was the warm rolls with the butter.

The food came in a very timely matter the waitress and anyone working there seem to be very nice and respectable. The ambience is giving very sexy mode, not rowdy, but you can tell this is definitely a hang out spot for adults. It is dark in there they do have table lamps, but I love it. My child did come with so this kid friendly. The food was definitely a nine out of 10 And not so much of just the taste I'm factoring in the presentation as well. The sticky rice was amazing. I mean the shrimp had the perfect type of heat mind you I did Houston restaurant week. So I got three course meal for $39. My first course was the sticky rice 9.5 out of 10 My second course was the fried chicken smothered with gravy and mushroom mashed potatoes and kale greens .. I'm gonna give it a eight out of 10 because I did not like the mushrooms. This gravy wasn't seasoned very well, but it was still very good. My last course was the brownie and oh my God it was absolutely delicious I think that was like my favorite part. I really wanted to order another brownie because it was really good. Overall, I have to get this place at nine out of 10. I'm definitely coming back to try some other meals.
