We were a party of six, 4 adults and 2 kids so we had a variety of food. Service was good, very friendly young woman at the front. The youngest got a kid meal which was a grilled cheese sandwich with French fries. My daughter got the very special burger with macaroni and cheese and an onion ring. It does require a fork to eat. My son got a spicy chicken sandwich which was excellent and I got onion rings. They were very good. My oldest grandson got a burger and the middle grandson got cheese fries.
I've had a lot of burgers in my lifetime. This one was just a regular burger for me personally it was lacking a bit of flavor even with the sauce they add on. I did like the fact that they were halal grass fed burgers --and they were huge. I also tried the Parmesan truffle fries, which were OK a little smaller than I would've liked. The service was good. It's tucked away in a little plaza. Overall it wasn't bad. I just wouldn't go out of my way to come back here.
Why 4 stars? Because I was craving a solid burger and that's what I got here. --- --- --- The menu here is really strong: I legitimately wanted to try more than half the menu. While I was really tempted by the truffle burger, I'm a sucker for BBQ burgers, so that's what I opted for, and I really enjoyed it. It did not cause me to be overwhelmed with convulsions because it was so amazing, but it was a hit-the-spot burger. I actually really enjoyed the brisket fries too. I almost just opted for regular fries, but I got those for my son so I could at least try some in their OG form. It turns out: fries are much better with brisket and all the fixins. Who knew? We visited at 1pm on a Sunday, and for the first 15 minutes or so, we were the only people in the restaurant. That bummed me out and I intended to include in my review that people need to support this local business! But as it turns out, a massive party of people walked in around the same time, so I feel a lot better about Urban Skillets' prospects. But still, support them, people of the Willowbrook area!
Food- top notch! Made to order, fresh ingredients, flavor profiles that do not disappoint. This was our first time going, and we will definitely be back! Also, huge plus that it was open late. Dining area very clean and spacious. I see them adding more tables in the future.
As Californians who recently moved to Tomball, we've been on the hunt for a quality burger joint--something beyond the all-too-familiar taste of Whataburger. After what felt like an endless search, we stumbled upon Urban Skillet in Cypress, and let me just say: game changer. This place serves up gourmet burgers at the same price you'd pay for a standard fast food meal, but the difference in quality is night and day. You can taste the freshness--juicy beef patties, cooked to order, perfectly seared, and topped with real ingredients. And get this--grilled onions at no extra charge. That alone already tells you they care more about flavor than upcharges. Everything about our experience screamed quality and care, from the seasoned fries to the soft buns that hold up with every bite. It's a reminder that burgers don't have to be basic--they can be bold, rich, and satisfying without costing more. Thank you, Omar!! Texas folks: you need--no, you must--try this place for yourselves. If you've forgotten what a real burger tastes like, Urban Skillet will remind you.
My rating is what it is because there's room to grow, but I'm happy to support more halal restaurants in Houston! They have a few locations established in California, but since this is the first Houston location, it still seems to be getting its feet on the ground. The brand owner was friendly, but service felt a bit mixed. The signage is also hard to see from the street, but I heard they might try to have it fixed so it will be more visible. They have plenty of options on the menu, and their burgers are generously filled and super messy to eat. I opted to try their Original Skillet Burger. It was filled with tasty ingredients like burger sauce and caramelized onions, but I felt that most of the flavor came from the toppings rather than the meat itself, which was almost tough. The burger bun also felt too cool to the touch when I picked it up, which was surprising. They have great marketing, so since their food photos were so beautiful my expectations might have been a bit too high. The sides are pricy, but the portions were generous. My friend really enjoyed the Truffle Banger and the Buffalo Chicken Fries. Interior is spacious and clean, but overly warm on a summer night; music was so loud it was hard to have a conversation. The hiccups I encountered seem like pretty easy fixes, so I'll be sure to give this place another try in case I just happened to come on an off day. - Ambiance: 3/5 - Food: 3/5 - Service: 3/5
Had dinner here for the first time. Man we have been missing out. This was amazing. We both had the eggcellent burger. 2 good size smash patties, over easy egg, urban sauce, pickles and lettuce on a Brioche Bun. Best burger I've had in a long time. We got the brisket fries and loaded tots. Both are large enough to feed a family of 4. Service was great. They had a few large TVs and a nice patio out front. We will definitely be back.
The food was good, we ordered the urban skillet, the wings were good they just really needed sauce they had almost none, the sweet potato fries were good. 1 burger, 6 piece wings, 1 sweet potato fry, 2 waters and 1 soda it came out to be $38. They only have bottled drinks in a mini fridge, no fountain drinks or ice machine which is okay but if you're paying $14 for a burger the least you could expect is some ice to be available. Theres no napkins on the tables or shakers or condiments. It just feels really empty inside. The employee who took our order was nice. Overall the food was good but not enough to come back especially for the price. $1 extra for jalapeños is crazy in a restaurant who doesn't have an ice machine.
The food is spectacular! The original skillet burger tasted like a really good homemade burger but a thinner patty. The brisket fries were cooked amazingly. Just enough sauce and brisket without drowning the fries. I split my burger with my 6 year old daughter and she knocked it down! Can drinks so be ready for that caveat. We will definitely be back!

Small quaint little restaurant with very tasty food that is made to order,. The food was amazing very hot & fresh. I had the Beyond burger with a size of truffle fries and my husband had the double urban. Both I would give 5 stars. My husband really loved his burger as well. The staff were very friendly. I highly recommend! read more

We came here because of their amazing reviews. I have to say that the reviews lived up to the hype. I am so happy when that happens. First and foremost is halal!! Thankfully, the food scene in Houston is so great, that we don't have to settle for mediocre halal food, but this is not that. The customer service was great. I didn't get the name of the girl who took my order, but she was very sweet and helpful. She let me know that getting a combo was a $3 upcharge, and it got us a drink and a fries. I chose a Mexican type orange soda and it was delicious. The fries we got came out cold, but they got us new fries that were nice and hot so and the counter girl apologized for the fries that we got before which seemed hard, old and cold. So no harm no foul. I got the original burger, and it was really good. I like that it had caramelized onions and it just tasted very fresh and like the other of you said a hundred percent grass fed halal meat. We also got the hot chicken sandwich, which my husband preferred, because he liked the coleslaw addition to the sandwich. We also got garlic parmesan wings because of a picture I saw online, and I have to say the picture looked better than the actual wings.They were quite salty. I would not get those again. The establishment looks clean.The customer service was great, and besides the fries mishap, our food came out in a nice orderly time and was fresh and hot. I would definitely recommend to come here! read more
We stopped by Urban Skillet on a Friday evening after our student's basketball game. Overall, it was just okay. The lady at the register was attentive and helpful, offering a few suggestions that we actually went with. We both ordered the spicy burger with jalapeños. My husband got the regular fries, while I ordered the truffle fries with garlic Parmesan. Unfortunately, the meal itself was pretty meh--not bad, just nothing that stood out or wowed us. The ambiance was nice and modern, which I appreciated, and I do like that they're open until midnight on weekends--definitely a plus if you're out late. Would we go back? Maybe not. It wasn't terrible, but there was nothing memorable enough about the food to make it a repeat visit. read more

I love a good cheeseburger and I wanted to love this place so bad! The guy that took my order was very helpful and they have a variety of burgers made with different types of cheese, toppings, and condiments. The establishment had a nice atmosphere with a menu that includes classic cheeseburgers as well as unique and other gourmet options. It was like $50 for 2-double cheeseburgers, 1 kids single burger, and 1 order of fries ( one double cheeseburger was incorrectly made after we repeated the order 3 times) $9.50 for a kids single meat burger only w/o fries n drink. I was still hungry eating the burger too, which wasn't cool after spending $50 for 3 burgers and an order of fries. The burger was decent but not spectacular. I was still hungry immediately after I finished my burger. I'll give them 3 stars for not correctly taking my order and not feeling me up. read more

I wasn't gonna do a review for this place but I have to give my honest opinion. I've eaten at burger joints very similar to this style all over the states. I have to say this was the absolute worst. I decided to order the Brisket sandwich /w brisket fries and my wife ordered the patty melt. The Brisket was extremely dry and bland!! No flavor at all so I spoke with the manager or owner and asked to replaced it with the Eggcellent Morning Burger. Now this burger was much better than the brisket sandwich but still bland/ no flavor and the egg was overcooked. The manager/owner was extremely nice and for that reason alone I would give this place another try! I'm not sure if the cook was having an off day or he just didn't care to make my order correctly. Another thing I didn't expect was that they only had can/ bottles drinks and store brand water. If I'm eating at a burger joint I'm gonna need refills a can soda ain't gonna do it. read more

We decided to try this place since it was new and close to home. We placed our order online to go. When we arrived, I was told that they didn't have the brisket fries we ordered and they would make something else. He tried to call us but was calling the order number and not an actual phone number. We ended up with a truffle burger, original skillet, and urban fries. My husband and I both agreed that the burgers were a little salty. The fries were nothing special in my opinion. I wish we would've been able to try this brisket fires because it was just everything from the burger on top of fries. Overall the food was ok. Nothing stood out to us and nothing we tried makes us want to rush back. read more
