Went here for breakfast and it was amazing I had pancakes with eggs and it was one of the best breakfast I had

Our go-to breakfast spot in the area. Has been a staple for our family for many years. The staff is extremely friendly, and they have something for everybody. I prefer to get a standard egg combo: two eggs any style, has browns, and wheat toast. Sometimes I will add a giant pancake or a protein on the side. I prefer the sausage patty but I'll get bacon occasionally instead. Will switch between their cold brew or large ice tea. Can't speak highly about Buffalo Grille! read more

I've been to Buffalo Grille many times and have tried most of the items on the menu. My kids love the chili and pancakes. I love their toasted cinnamon coffee-- it's strong and the refills are free, what's not to love? It gets packed in here on the weekends, so I do recommend going early! read more

The layout of ordering is so odd. No sort of line just standing between tables waiting for a cashier. Not super organized. Food was just fine. Nothing amazing, but nothing bad. Waffle I could have gotten at a hotel breakfast was disappointing. But coffee was nice. read more

The Buffalo Grille - Breakfast - American Near Me - Houston, Texas

This used to be our favorite place to eat breakfast! We had not been in quite a while and recently decided to go. (We don't live close by) to say we were shocked and disappointed is an understatement. The biscuits were hard and slightly burned on the bottom, the hashbrowns were grey and undercooked. They replaced them with grits, (which was nice) but my husband said they were the worst he's ever eaten. I tasted them and they were pretty bad. The eggs were good! They were cooked perfectly. My husband's pancakes quality I would liken to McDonald's. He completely agreed. They have remodeled the dining area since we have been there. Sadly I felt it lost some charm. Kind of crazy, but I used to feel like I was in Colorado or New Mexico with the vibe it had. (I loved it!) .... The service was good but it is counter service, so it's hard to mess up. We did go later in the day, but I can't imagine that affecting the food quality this badly. Super disappointed for a once 5 star place. :( read more

Great option for a casual breakfast - order at the counter and your name will be called shortly to pick up your meal. Love that they have three different coffee blends to choose from - the pecan blend was my favorite. Hearty breakfast choices, some with TexMex flair; huge portions and friendly service. Parking - private lot as part of shopping center read more

Service was prompt and efficient. This was my first time going and wish they had at least explained everything. I had read a few reviews prior so I was a little prepared for what to expect. Overall food was good. I had the single hotcake and sausage patties. My boyfriend had the chicken and waffles. Everything had a decent flavor to it. There isn't anything absolutely special about the food and place but it's a good staple for breakfast. The place is order and food will be called when it is ready. read more

The thrill is gone. It has been YEARS since I have visited. The prices are very good but the food is relatively bland. If you have a picky diner, this might be a good spot for you as it is very basic and I offensive. But my grits were meh, and my catfish lacked seasoning. read more

Whether it's for a quick breakfast or a casual lunch, The Buffalo Grille is definitely a local haunt for the neighborhood. The format is simple: order at the counter, find a table, fetch your own water and condiments and eventually someone will call out your name to pick up the food. It's a sizeable spot with plenty of seating and some limited outdoor seating as well. It might feel like a senior citizen's hour sometimes (#1) and it's very family oriented. There's never an issue with the parking and the bathrooms are also decent. Occasionally there are lines during the weekend, but I've managed to come here line-free most of the time. The menu is a solid variety of American brunch favorites, along with a touch of Mexican breakfast and some sandwiches, salads, and soups. The food isn't glamorous by any stretch but some things worth noting: * Buffalo burger is a thin "buffalo meat" patty that feels no different than a regular patty. Not worth it. * Their hashbrowns are super crispy and I wish the portion was a bit more. * Huevos rancheros and huevos con papa are not mind blowing, but the I do love the sausage patties. No thanks on the migas with those excessive onions. * When in doubt, go with an omelette. They're hearty, affordable, and stuffed quite nicely. I love the counter where all the condiments, drinks, and utensils are. The have a bunch of hot sauce bottles and a hot syrup dispenser. I love being able to get the water and napkins at my leisure versus summoning the staff for more. They're a nice bunch but I've had enough order snafus here to expect a mishap here and there. This isn't going to be priority spot for the weekend brunch hour or weekday lunch, but it'll do whenever I'm looking for food in West U. __________ (#1) Ok. All the time. read more

My friends and I came here after a Saturday morning workout so we were hungry. Overall good cafe for work. Noise level - did not measure but many conversations in the restaurant Wifi speed - 120 down 120 up is impressive Power plugs - did not see any Seats - 40-50 indoors Parking - free, many strip mall lots Our food came within 15 mins of waiting. My omelette was delicious. The short stack of pancakes is not short at all. We had a good meal. I'd probably come back to have another breakfast during the weekday and bring my own battery to work and when the noise level is lower. But I'll definitely come back here for the food! read more

I love the Buffalo grille! My boyfriend recommended it originally since we drive past it a lot. Said the breakfast was really good so when my dad was in town we decided to try it. I had the BYO scramble with pretty much every topping in it lol my dad had a blueberry pancake the first time we went. The scramble is delishhhh. My dad enjoyed his pancake so much he decided we should go back. I had pretty much the same thing again but with cheesy grits and was still good. He had a classic breakfast and it was just what he wanted. The coffee is fine, they have some flavored roasts. Nothing fancy. They also have a variety of other stuff on their menu so would definitely want to come back try some more out. The service is always fast. You order at the counter and the food is usually out within 5-10 min tops. read more

The Buffalo Grille - Chicken Salad Sandwich - American Near Me - Houston, Texas

This place has been around for years and runs like well oiled machine. LOL. They have a sort of limited menu with different combinations of an American breakfast with some Tex Mex mixed in. They do have some sandwiches, burgers and salads. It's order at the front and they call your name. So self service sort of. They do buss your tables as you finish your plates. You get your own refills at the drink station. Very casual atmosphere and can be crowded over the weekends during brunch/lunch time. So come early if you want a a table. Great place to read more

Cozy, cute and an inviting breakfast space to meet with friends or Bible Study fellowship group. Consistent quality food AND coffee. Good place indoors or out. A repeat customer & glad to be back. read more

This place is horrible since it changed owners . Don't bother coming. Food was overcooked & biscuits were dry & hard plus some menu items are removed . This used to be excellent place but NO more. I see now why there was NO line like in the past ! Two Other tables commented on the tennis ball two day old hard biscuits also . So sad they did not keep the standards up !! read more

I'm so sad...they changed the pancakes...I have loved these pancakes my whole life and now they taste like the blandest pancake I've ever had. Not even dumping the hot syrup on it helped. Also the portion sizes are significantly smaller. read more

$4 dollar orange juice was marginal. Service slow for a Saturday. Two scrambled eggs, more like one. read more

If you're looking for some regular food that you don't have to figure out what the ingredients are ........ this is the place!! Sometimes I just want breakfast or lunch that I can depend on, to taste like what it's supposed to taste like. I love this place, next best thing to mom's kitchen. read more

Another one bites the dust. Been going there since my grown kids were in diapers. Ever since Adair bought the restaurant things have gone to s--t. This morning my old $8.95 breakfast special was $12.95 and came with two pancakes instead of three and the two sunny side up eggs were the size of eyeballs. My grits were a bowl of lumpy paste and the bacon no longer is the black pepper thick cut stuff they were known for. What a CRAPPY breakfast. The new menu on the wall has no prices I guess they don't want to run you off before you order. There are just too many restaurants in this town to submit to this treatment. Adios. read more

Excellent breakfast spot. Will be coming back for some lunch, I want some of that chopped steak. Type of place that reminds you of your childhood when your parents take you to the local pancake house. Excellent food and service and a good neighborhood. read more

Nothing fancy but a solid brunch place, The omelets are tasty and come out fast. Don't expect upscale coffees or entrees. Good pace to go after church or for a breakfast meeting. read more

I am giving a 4 star review because of the attentive caring staff. I am a long time regular customer of Buffalo Grille. Recently, several changes have occurred to the restaurants, and the menu. The physical changes to interior a mostly a great refresh. Today I am focusing on a menu substitution that has occurred. Previously Buffalo Grille had fried Catfish on the menu prepared perfectly in a generous portion. It was one of my go to menu items. Good southern style catfish is quite a delicacy in a Southern restaurant when well prepared. The Catfish was replaced with a non descript brick type processed generic fish that is tasteless and has poor texture. I have tried it a few times and will no longer order the fish. There are still many star dishes to choose from on the menu. read more

Today was not a good experience at Buffalo Grille. I ordered my usual scrambled eggs with cream cheese and green onions and a side of sliced tomatoes. I requested "light on the green onions", because last time it was an overwhelming amount all over my eggs. My eggs had twice as many green onions Plus the sliced tomatoes were mealy and one looked "anemic" as it was almost all white instead of red. I took my tomatoes back up and asked for fresher sliced tomatoes. The 2nd batch they gave me was barely an improvement. I just could not eat them. The eggs were not enjoyed by me, because they had way too much green onions mixed in them. I did NOT enjoy my meal at all and basically only ate a few forkfuls of eggs and all the food was left on the table and I just left. A waste of my time, money and I still was hungry for breakfast. After all these years of coming here with my family and friends, I will scratch this place off my approved list. read more

I have eaten here for breakfast many years. Since it was sold to the new group the food has gone downhill!! Can you please hire a new cook ? You are loosing customers. read more

The food was horrible. The service was horrible. Since Adair bought Buffalo Grill. EVERYTHING has changed. And. NOT for the better. The food portions were super small, and the quality was not up to Buffalo Grill's standards. And. The man with silver hair was yelling at the kitchen staff. Causing him to turn bright red and get very short and rude in his conversation with me. And. Then he walked out. Not sure where he went. I really didn't care. He was a jerk-off anyway. So. There's that. I ordered chicken fried chicken....that was actually a chicken sandwich size patty(it looked as if it had been beat with a tenderizing tool, very, very, very thin. There were no sides apparently. My macaroni and cheese had no cheese, there was no squash.....no Lima beans, no green beans, no fried okra. Nothing I ordered wasn't prepared. And that was/is alarming. Not in 20 years have I ever had service like this from here. But. Since Adair bought y'all. Everything was excellent. Everything. And. The manager was working his butt off getting food out. He was incredibly apologetic and did everything he could to make it right. I appreciate that. But. I'm gonna have to say that this is my last time eating here. And that makes me sad! read more

Long wait time. Lousy food. Very noisy. Won't return. Used to be a great place (West U location) for breakfast. Now it's toxic. Won't last a year! read more

I have been a regular customer at both Houston locations for over 20 years. This time it was utter chaos at 10:30 am on a Saturday. I placed my order at the counter - scrambled eggs, bacon, and an English muffin - and still didn't have my food after waiting over 30 minutes. I got my money back and walked out. read more

Went there for the first time since new ownership. Why aren't prices shown on the menu board on the wall as people wait in line? And as I ordered at the counter, I saw a laminated menu with not only prices, but other items not on the wall menu. Certainly slows down the line as people at the register look at laminated menu. It was also so so loud, maybe because they opened it up to one big room instead of the partition they used to have. Breakfast was just OK...scrambled eggs and hash browns which were a bit too brown. Might give lunch a chance. read more

Today my husband and I went for lunch. After a 15 minute wait, his cheese omelette came out fine. My chicken salad sandwich was pathetic. There was about a tablespoon of chicken salad between the bread. The lettuce was brown, the tomatoes were gross (included green core) and the chips were stale. I should have just taken it back but I was hungry. I took the sandwich apart to try to salvage some of it. I Removed the bad lettuce and tomato and ate the three bites of chicken salad. I finally took my plate to the manager and explained it to her and she offered to refund my money. I told her I was not interested in a refund, but that if they expected to have customers return, they could not serve food like this! She took my dish and put it away. Won't be going back. Been a very good customer for 30 years! read more

Great place for breakfast/brunch. Heard it gets busy. Best time to go is early in the morning or right around 10-11ish on the weekdays. Lots of seating including outdoor and lots to choose from. Just had the breakfast special but they have a lot of options. Pecan coffee is on point. read more

This place is not even worth 1 star. read more

Buffalo Grille was already going downhill since they moved from the Buffalo Speedway location. Under new ownership we will not be returning. Pros: simplifying the wall menu and removing the TVs. Cons: everything else. When placing our order, I pointed out the very large cockroach crawling across the all tile wall behind the cashier. She looked and said, "oh" and then asked for my order. The removal of the drink/condiment/utensil station also meant no more cosy side by the fireplace. Its one big open room now. We used to come mostly because the kids liked it but they couldn't even finish their food. Instead of fruit on top or the side of the pancake--they had strawberries in the batter--resulting in undercooked wet spots. The hash browns they previously loved were coated (no exaggeration) in black pepper. None of the adult dishes were good either. All of them looked and tasted like the cooks could care less. There is no love at Buffalo Grille. read more

Not to be confused With Buffalo Girl, which I used to be with for a long time. This is a super cute American Diner located in the very fancy part of town, and considering where it's located, the prices aren't too bad. It's a local chain but only with two locations, and they do make pretty good food - as in your typical Texas kind of food like chicken fried steak and what not. Most people come here for the breakfast, but the bacon is overrated because everybody raves about it, but it's still American bacon in the end. Has nothing on real bacon, i.e. British, Danish, Irish and so on. Still a good meal to come and get if you want American stuff. read more

The Buffalo Grille - It's not even in Buffalo though - American Near Me - Houston, Texas

It was my first time here and I was a bit skeptical because of the low reviews but I definitely was very happy with my food and service! The fish tacos were delicious and huge. My sister loved her breakfast too. Sadly, the weather was absolutely terrible to the point of us having to leave and pack up our food so we didn't get to explore the location which was beautiful! The whole place was very family oriented and it seemed like there was quite a bit to do. I would recommend this place! read more
