Just enjoyed a great breakfast here. Omelette was very good, service was very good and attentive. My only complaint is that a side of toast was $6. It was just 1 piece of thick toast. I know it was probably just rung up as a side, but maybe think of a more reasonable price for a piece of toast. I was with a friend and it was his birthday treat, so I didn't want to make a fuss, so I let it go. Will I be back, yes. Meal was very good.

A cozy restaurant that could accommodate big and small groups. I would recommend making reservation as groups of people do come in fast during lunch time. I came here for HRW. I had the shrimp skewers, passion fruit salmon, and crème brûlée. The shrimps were seasoned perfectly. The habanero mango sauce was just a little spicy, and it paired well with the shrimps. My mouth was dancing in beautiful flavors of salty, spicy, and a little sweetness. My salmon was cooked to perfection. The passion fruit sauce was delicious, and went well with the salmon. Lastly, my dessert was ok. It was a little runny but smooth custard. Service wise, it could be better. I asked for ice tea and didn't get one. My server totally forgot about it.

I ordered the orange carafe of mimosas to share with a friend. It was pretty yummy. A good balance of bubbly, sweet and tart from the orange juice. We were fortunate enough to visit during HWR so I had the banana oat pancakes and the huevos rancheros. No regrets across the board. Service initially took a bit but after receiving our food the servers were diligent and friendly. For a Sunday it wasn't too packed but it was busy, nicely decorated and family friendly.

Menu brunch special

Come in on a hot and sunny day lovely establishment walk in get seated about two minutes a server comes to seat me. First time here. Get the menu look it over and I decided to get the urban breakfast which comes with choice of eggs and choice of meat and comes with potatoes and fruit. I also get a Belgian waffle with strawberries. Get my food and drink, taste everything the urban breakfast was good eggs were cooked to perfection and bacon was crispy hard and potatoes was good also fruit they could leave the melons out but some people like melon I'm not a fan of melons. Didn't try the Belgian waffle got too full. So will try it when I'm at home. All in all everything was good for a late lunch. Urban breakfast 9/10 Watermelon cucumber martini 8/10 Belgian waffle?

Bacon wrapped scallops

My first time there. The server recommended I get the lunch special $25. You pick an appetizer than a entrée then dessert everything was excellent.

We arrived to this spot and there was plenty of parking. We walked in and were greeted and sat immediately on a Sunday morning. The customer service was on point. We were able to enjoy the regular menu and the resturant week menu. The pork belly was great. The waffle and omelet were good..not great..but good. The chicken fried chicken was pretty good. All was reasonably priced.

Biscuits and gravy.

I wasn't wowed by my food at this location. I had the pete's Colorado omelette and i was disappointed. The omelette had nothing inside, but a little cheese and whatever toppings on top. There were only a few pieces of breakfast potatoes underneath. The biscuit and gravy were good even though one of them came looking like someone ripped the top off lol. My boyfriend had the lobster omelette which he said was tasty. We always go to the other location in the heights and never had an issue. So maybe they were just having a bad day in the kitchen? Pros: Service was good and my beer was cold and delicious.

Pecan Crusted Chicken

I made reservation here for our company dept to have a team meeting lunch. Service was a bit slow, I recall only about 2 server and 1 busboy. I noticed my boss was getting antsy 30 mins in and no one have taken our food order. Food was great. I ordered the Pecan Crusted Chicken with mashed potatoes and onion rings. My only complaint is I wish the pecan chicken had a little more hint of salt. My coworker next to me was telling me how good the fettuccine alfredo was and he also added the pecan crusted chicken. I may have to give that a try next time. Food was great, they need to hire another server to help with taking order etc.

Mostly all parsley stems and leaves. Almost choked on it!! Hardly any edible greens

Food is great and service was nice. Overpriced though... Reminds me of an upscale Cheddar's.

I left my lunch at home, so I could return to my favorite spot for lunch, and was pleasantly…read moredelighted again! They have two new sandwiches on the menu, so I definitely had to try at least one of them. I went with the Cilantro Lime Steak sandwich, and was thoroughly satisfied! You get a nice-sized Cuban loaf, with lots of beef, string carrots, cucumbers, gobs of fresh cilantro, and a delicious cilantro lime dressing drizzled over the top. There is also a garlic mayo spread generously on the bread, so when it is perfectly toasted, it reminded me of garlic bread! And of course, I had to have my usual barbecue chips to top it all off. Another chef's kiss for a delicious sandwich! I will definitely be back to try the other new sandwich, the Buffalo Chicken Glaze!

I heard so many great things about crave and craft and had to check it out when I was in the area…read more They're known for their halal sandwiches and wow they did not disappoint. They had TOOO many options to choose from. The inside is so cute and adorable- people were working from there which was nice. The service was great- the ladies working were so sweet and accommodating. They gave use recs and it was nice. We got the pastrami royale (14.99$) and the mahanattan melt (12.99$) and both were delicious. They were made fresh in front of you and you could personalize and add more topping if you wanted any. I love how they display the meats on a baking sheet which is so aesthetic. So incredibly flavorful and delicious. And the presentation was just wow!! I would highly recommend if you're in the area

My friend and I came here on a Wednesday afternoon and there was nobody inside the restaurant…read morebesides us. The interior is a little narrow but there's a decent number of seating available and the Halloween decorations were so cute! We ordered from the Kiosk and got the following: Grilled Pork Banh Mi Old School Bahn Mi I love how the bahn mi's come with chicken pho soup and rainbow chips! It took around 15 minutes for the food to be ready and we took it back home to eat. I enjoyed my grilled pork banh mi! The meat was a little too salty for me but the flavor overall was decent. I enjoyed the chicken pho soup and the rainbow chips were satisfying. My friend got the old school banh mi and said it was good but nothing extraordinary. Overall, this is a good spot for some banh mi if you're in the area and want some side dishes to complete the meal. Looking forward to trying other items on the menu when I come back next time.

We came here for the food and did not try any of the drinks…read more The Banh Mi was very good - a 5/5. It came with pho soup. They ran out of rainbow chips during our visit. We also tried the Grill Pork Rice Box. It was just ok. The price was decent, but portions seemed rather small. 3/5. Since this place was famous for the Boss Lady Fried Chicken, we ordered this to go as well. The chicken is big. However, it's not as tasty as our benchmark place in Bellaire. The place is quite tiny - there's inadequate seating for any party larger than two. Also, there are no restrooms for customers.
