Went for happy hour and wasn't super impressed. Enjoyed the blue cheese chips but the charcuterie board wasn't anything to write home about. Was hoping to try some pastries but they were out! Our drinks were fine, just am not dying to go back. read more

My last two reviews reflected a trend that was off-putting. Fast forward a year and Weights + Measures have really brought their A-game. The menu has both been freshened up and their quality and execution of the food reflects that higher level of performance. Throw in both service and great cocktails and that all manifests itself into at least 4 stars, trending up. I can highly recommend the grilled citrus skirt steak (5 stars), wood grilled Spanish octopus (4 stars), roasted baby cauliflower (4 stars), & tuscan kale salad add grilled chicken breast (4 stars). Cocktail options were all executed as you would want as a customer and all the food and drinks were all further underpinned by good service. W&M have done a great job to earn back my business on a regular basis. I very much look forward to trying many of their other choices, particularly their pasta options. read more

My friends and I were excited to try this place for Houston Restaurant weeks. The service was good and the manager was nice but all of the food was underwhelming. The corn soup was ok but bland. The fried gnocchi with sage butter had neither sage nor butter and was chewy. The mahi-mahi main course was slightly over cooked and dry while the mashed squash it was served with came out cold. The cocktails were tasty and I enjoyed the crepe brûlée for dessert but I don't think we will be going back. read more

My girlfriend and I decided to check this place out for HRW. WE COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE IMPRESSED! We had many of the dishes on the HRW menu, as we didn't want to get the same thing. Some of the standouts were: House smoked salmon (first course). Smoked salmon was perfect, the rest of the dish stood on its own and blended perfectly. Octopus was cooked perfectly for the second dish, which is not an easy feat. The filet was incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked, and the garlic sticky rice that it was served on was spectacular. The duck main course had great crispy skin, and the black sticky rice was unique and delicious. Desserts were both incredible. All in all, you can tell how passionate the chef is about the quality of food and flavors. Service was superb. Very attentive the whole way through, and offered recommendations for drinks and food were spot on. Tagir was his name, and we would gladly have him serve us again. The maitre de (or maybe owner or GM) also made his way over to check on us, and he was very nice and pleasant. Overall, we felt so welcomed and at home here from the moment we walked through the door. I can't wait to go back, and I would recommend this place to anyone with the highest level of confidence. read more

This review is solely based on their drinks as I have not had an opportunity to eat here. Their bar tenders - are awesome. My brother and I had some of the best Old Fashioned's we've ever had, seriously top 5. Whatever my wife got was awesome as well. :0) We tried to go the next morning for brunch but there was a 3 hour wait. Soooooooo we'll check with them next time :0) Definitely check out their drinks! read more

Well! This place was was a great find! A table of 8 girls who each got something different, and all of us believed our dish was the best. The wait staff was attentive and personable, and the drinks were wonderful. Can't say enough fabulous things about Weights and Measures! read more

Great atmosphere, high quality good and servicing. Most creative Brunch selection in town. Recommend you call and reserve for breakfast and brunch . At night it's such a romantic relaxed atmosphere that will pair with their fine cocktail/drink selection. Give it a try you won't be disappointed. read more

I've been here now.... 4 times? The first couple of times I had terrible service.. THE worst, but didn't want to post a negative review because I thought, "MAYBE I just had a bad experience." Since then it's been better, but it's still been mediocre. I usually sit at the bar because it is just me and there's usually an open spot, so I cannot comment on wait staff. Here's why I say the worst: The first time I visited Weights + Measures I sat at the bar and said, "hey how's it going?" With a smile. The guy at the bar looked at me and proceeded to walk off. He returned a few minutes later and said, "would you like anything to drink?" To which I replied, "coffee and water please. Also, this is my first time here, can you recommend some of the house favorites or popular items?" He looked me straight in the eyes and walked away. Didn't say a word. The second time I came here no one acted like they wanted to be there. No one smiled and no one looked happy... unfriendly service. Anyway, the food is good. It is expensive. I got a coffee and a Benedict: $28. There are places with friendlier staff, better portions, that are less expensive. read more

Summary- meh brunch with mediocre service. Food- 3 Stars Bacon breakfast sandwich was pretty good. Side breakfast potatoes were meh. Nothing outrageous but it got it done. Breakfast pizza was loaded with good ingredients but the crust was soggy and underdone, which completely ruined the whole thing because it was completely without any texture. It straight sucked. Kids chocolate pancakes were pretty good. Service- 1 Star What a hot mess. The waiter was completely over-matched with 8 tables outside, which would be a challenge for a strong waiter, which he was not. At first it was he was ok, but then the tables filled in and he was lost. Waited at least 25 minutes between being done eating and getting the check. The bar was exceedingly slow as well when we first ordered, we waited 10 minutes for a bloody and a cocktail. Drinks- 2 Stars John Dailey Compromise was pretty good sweet cocktail, bloody was very meh and lacking the promised heat, and mezcal based tequila cocktail was terrible, like sour patch kids gone awry. If our waiter hadn't disappeared it would have been sent back. Atmosphere- 4 Stars Super cool inside with neat decor and interesting tables. Patio is nice, seats right on sidewalk not so much. Value- 2 Stars All around missing something. read more

What's not to like?? The carrot pizza is there flagship pizza for a reason. I can't get over how good this meatless pizza can actually be. It is a must-order item. The Spanish octopus is perfectly charred and served with a surprisingly delicious side of greens. But the thing that makes me want to go back is a cocktail called Leather and Suede. It is not always available, but when it is...ORDER IT! It is bourbon based and will enchant you as it did me. read more

Checked this place out for the first time for brunch on Easter and I wish I would've liked it a whole lot better. The place is super nice with modern decor and large windows. So pretty !! But service was not very good. I'm not sure what was up with our server but he just acted like he didn't care. He came up to check up on us and everything but something about his attitude was off and unpleasant. I'm a huge fan of avocado toast so I was excited to try this one out. It was alright and a little bland to me. The toast also comes with two eggs, bacon, and a green harissa sauce on top of two slices of ciabatta bread. They were giving away free baked goods which made up for the okayish food and bad service. I think they were just giving them away because they made too much ?? I'm not too sure. But either way, I'm there ! I got a kolache and chocolate chip cookie and both were SOOO GOOD. I would definitely come here again just to get a kolache. It has a thick sausage wrapped in a flaky, buttery croissant. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Definitely try it out. The cookie was almost the size of my face and it was to die for. It's chewy and soft at the same time with just the right amount of chocolate chips. read more

This place is such a trendy brunch spot! When you first pull in, they have a bunch of parking spots blocked off which we found is because they have complimentary valet parking. We didn't have to wait at all and we were seated right away! I started off with a honey cinnamon latte, which was not listed on the menu but recommended by our waiter. It was super yummy and not too sweet. We started with the morning cracked egg pizza, and split it between the table it was delicious. I also had the brioche French toast and a side of bacon and everything was so good. The potatoes were sooo good they didn't even need ketchup! 10/10 would recommend read more

This place is so overpriced - come here if you like spending $20-30 on very mediocre food and small portions. I ordered an avocado toast with an egg and harissa - with 15% tip included, I paid around $24 () which is ridiculous considering that I hadn't bought a drink or juice. My egg was cold and so was my spinach - these were the two things that I had expected to be fairly warm at the least. Because of this, my breakfast was a very cold one. The portion size was too small, I felt hungry which is saying something because I'm very petite. I will say that my friend ordered the French toast and that looked considerably better and was a larger portion. I can't speak to its taste but based on looks alone, I would recommend that over what I ordered. I can see the appeal of this place but it's not a winner for me. read more

Quick tips: Great brunch for my husband and I since he loves a sweet brunch, but i want savory. Try the bake shop extravaganza to sample a number of their delicious baked items. Reservations available on opentable and they get fairly busy on Saturday and Sunday. Food: Bakeshop extravaganze comes with five bake shop items including their muffins, scones, doughnuts, croissants etc. Try it for some variety, but it may be a bit too much for just two people. Avocado toast is delicious, but a little light on the avocado. Check out the specials menu as well - I got a sausage omelette off the specials menu that was delicious. The home style potatoes that came on the side were also delicious with their house-made aioli. Ask for a side of it (definitely a splurge, but so worth it!). Service: Great friendly service. Ask you server for the recommendations, they are very knowledgable. Ambiance: Casual trendy. Perfect place for a fun girl brunch or date. read more

Weights + Measures - Bake shop extravaganza - enjoy five bake shop items - Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

The squad has been chatting up this place and when they say it is like Tout Suite I die a little inside, because Tout Suite is the worst and I already got #savage on them in their own yelp review. You will be delighted to know W+M is nothing like Tout Suite. W+M food is awwww-wait for it-awesome. To put the two establishments in the same league would be like comparing cholera (not fun, if I remember my García Márquez faithfully) to a long weekend in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando (hecka 2 much fun.) They do breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, the bake shop, and Uncle's cough syrup so they do a lot of different things. This review is only going to cover a lunch experience on an average Thursday. Parking: small lot with valet and general Midtown street parking where she may be found. The lot was full so I did not get to lot it up. I watched the signs out on the street and I returned to the Dragon being unscathed - no tickets and not up on cinder blocks, so this area is not as 'in transition' as it still looks like it is a decade after the transition began. Atmo: It is set up in a 1950s industrial warehouse space that has been completely converted into a bright, happy, and colorful place with lots of windows. Arriving at 11:30 for lunch it is not that busy yet and you can get instantly seated. Noon and beyond there is a wait, the tables are full, and it gets so loud it is hard to hold a conversation. I was a lot happier when I could hold a conversation at regular person volume. Service: Based on the other yelp reviews I was really looking forward to meeting this super grumpy hostess that yelpers like Bonnie C., Ashley G., and Doris D. have called out. She wasn't particularly nice, but she wasn't nasty to me and my dining companion. She said exactly nothing and led us to our table as if we were horses being led to the glue factory. Our waitress was alright - we got water refilled easily. However one of the dim points of the experience was that we were being 'checked on' an exaggerated amount of times. I am aware that I am totes adorbs so it might be because of that, and it might also have had something to do with my dining companion's face having several broken bones in it. But several waitresses that weren't even our own (plus our own waitress) were swinging by constantly to assess our situation and lives? Our lunch from walking in to walking out took 85 minutes and we were checked on a record 14 times to see if we were alright before the bill came. I guess they really like making sure u r ok here, so much so it is a very firm annoyance punctuating what is otherwise a casual lunch. Menu: Perusing the online menu on their well-coded biz website I already knew what my order was going to be before I sat down at the table. Boomers? Say no more, fam. The pizza with wood grilled mushrooms + olives + ricotta salata rings up at $13 so it is in roughly the same price point as Tiny Boxwood's (one of my other fave-fave-fave spots), Dolce Vita, and Piola. The pizzas are the most expensive thing on the lunch menu though. Incomprehensibly the margherita is even more expensive than the other pizzas, which is opposite of how things work at Piola and everywhere else I am familiar with from Bertuccis in Harvard Square to CPK. But that's how it is. Pizza: the mushroom pizza is amazeballs. It is thin crust but with some deliciously soft doughy zones in the pie. It is wood burned and has some scorch marks but it is not burnt to a crisp. The mushrooms are actually well present in proportion to other ingredients and since they are wood grilled, they have the perfect texture and bold taste. The olives are just as good for point/counterpoint aftertaste. It is a huge pizza. I ate all I wanted and still had plenty to take home for a tasty 3am snack-to-be. Doughknots: Yo Tony, how'd you get these doughknots so fresh? This is one of the best desserts I have found in the city including my coveted cupcakes. They come out warm, rocked with cardamom sugar and honey. It is so soft, sweet, warm, and delicious. You can skip the pizza all day long if that's how you want to live your life, but you should definitely order the doughtknots no matter what you do and thank me later. Some of the more negative reviewers of this place did not order doughknots so there ya go, $5 dessert item can make or break this place. For a posh dandy's lunch out on the town, this has everything a brother could ask for limited to food and food quality. With 112 reviews for the place I was surprised they are only carrying a 3.5 star rating. This is one of the nicer lunch places inside the loop. The only weak spots are that it is very loud past noon, the hostess is not pleasant at all, and waitstaff will annoy you hardcore as you try to eat your food in peace. ~~~ (that is me awarding them some yelpy star power since emojis are no bueno in yelp reviews and I am going to allow the food to speak for itself more loudly than the service does) read more

Pizza was very greasy, and very limited options for anyone who might have dietary restrictions

I can't say enough good things about this place. We came for brunch on a Sunday morning and it was delicious. It was so hard to choose what to order because everything sounded amazing. I got the pork belly arepa benedict and my husband got the French toast and waffles. We had a hard time deciding who had the better dish. The entire staff was friendly and helpful. Our server was attentive without being overbearing. And the place is so cute. I love that it's an open concept kitchen and you can watch them make everything. Very relaxed vibes and a perfect way to start a Sunday! read more

I would eat all the things here! ALL THE THINGS!!! Visited this place several times just to make sure it was really as good as it was the first time. Decor is slick and very mid century modern. Hard surfaces and open spaces with a loungy bar. Open kitchen concept is a great thing and I like how they designed it into the concept. If you sit close enough and it's a little slow you can see your food being crafted. It will get that busy loud noise so if you dig that style then you will be all about it. -Potted Swordfish is like a decedent fish spread. I get it every time because it is very unique to this place. -Ribeye Meatballs...yes. Truly though its the sauce that makes it happen. -Baccala Brandade you cannot go wrong because it is bacon. Bacon is just delicious. -Any duck dish. Still think it's a trend all over but I like how I dont have to go to Chinatown to have well prepared duck. Drinking here is pretty awesome. It is a U shaped bar with the drink slingers are really cool conversationalists. - I had the Tiger Blood drink as a throwback to when Charlie Sheen had a melt down. It wasnt what I expected. - The Long Island will knock you down if you had a couple. Not too sure about the mix but otherwise ok. - The Rusty Nail is a little sweet for me but then again there is Dram in it. - Irish Coffee is really the perfect apertif here - Wine selection is good. Maybe it expands in due time. When they are busy they really busy. Expect long wait times when you dont have a plan of attack. I would suggest catching a seat at the bar if you are just two people. it is going to facilitate everything and you will have a better experience. I look forward to my next visit. read more

Weights + Measures - Breaking bread. - Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

Ahh Weights & Measures has so much potential, but it still needs to work out some kinks. As you walk in, you smell the awesome slowdough bakery goodies right inside the doorway. Be sure to stop by and buy some before or after your meal! They close in the afternoon before the restaurant closes, around 2-3pm I think. There is also coffee bar from Catalina Coffee inside the restaurant. I ate brunch here with a few girlfriends, and we oohed and ahhed at the interior decorations of the restaurant. It has a modern city vibe and is very tastefully decorated, along with large windows with lots of natural light. I wish I could say that we were just as impressed with the food, but we weren't. My friend and I split a mushroom toast and mushroom pizza (we were able to replace the olives with pancetta, which was very nice of them). Everything was kind of cold when it came out, which was the saddest thing. It was also hard to taste the brie in the mushroom toast, and the flavors were just not impressive. The home fries weren't crispy either, and my first slice of pizza was very, very burnt. The kitchen also needs to work on their herb situation, because they left out the basil on one pizza, put parsley on the other instead of basil, and added parsley on the third pizza when it wasn't supposed to be there. The portion sizes were very generous though. The pictures are misleading because their plates are so big that it makes everything look small, but it's actually not that small. You'll be full! I was impressed that on the cracked egg pizza, there is not 1, not 2, but 4!! eggs on the pizza. The menu here looks very exciting, and I would love for Weights & Measures to be successful, but at this point, it definitely needs some work. read more

The pork belly eggs Benedict "special" is $24. Twenty-four f'ing dollars! For two eggs, two chunks of pork belly, and some green garnish?!!! Isn't pork belly considered one of the cheaper cuts of meat? Everything else on the menu is a reasonable $10-13, so I hadn't bothered to ask how much this "special" costs before ordering it for J, who was running late. Lesson learned. Okay, now that that's out of the way, I'm gonna shift gears entirely to explain the 4 star rating. Weights + Measures is a restaurant to see and be seen. It's impressive how they've remodeled this old warehouse into an effortlessly cool space. The pops of color make it feel retro but trendy. You'll want to Instagram some photos. For brunch, the food absolutely delivers. My mushroom toast with poached eggs dish was so eggs-cellent that I forgot there was no meat. That's no small feat. I especially loved the pumpernickel bread it was served on, the perfect vessel for runny egg yolk. The avocado toast was a bit lacking in avocado, but most other restaurants are just as stingy about this, so I'll give them a pass. Perhaps the most delicious item was the carrot pizza, which everyone raved about but I was too wimpy to try because of the spice. Since I'm too lazy to write a separate review for the adjoining Slow Dough Bake Shop, I'll add a quick note here. The carrot cake is marvelous. It's dense and rich, packed with shreds of carrot, coconut, pineapple, and a handful of nuts for the optimal texture in every bite. The cookies are decent, but deffo not winner-of-cookie-crawl worthy. I swiped the very last chocolate chip cookie around 12:30 PM, so you might want to stop by the bakery first- they close at 3 PM. I'll be back soon to try the rib-eye meatballs. By the way, I know I'm not the only one who came across this place on Yelp and thought it was a gym, right? It's like my mind automatically filtered it out as a result. read more

Just showed up and they are no longer taking walk-ins! It's 1:45p and they told us to come back and try dinner. Umm, thanks but no thanks. The lady said they just started full lunch service yesterday and they are understaffed. Nice job planning. It was suggested we try a donut from the bake shop. The cinnamon twist was cold and mediocre. Nothing to rave about. read more

Came here with a large group of fun people on a Friday night. Our table was sat in the back near the bar in which I felt like was the "dark side". We all started with the ribeye meatballs in a ragu. Not bad, but my palate wouldn't be able to determine the difference between a regular meatball and W+M's ribeye meatball. The ragu is what made the meatball stand out and ended up being my only favorite dish of the night. I ordered the duck confit ravioli. It was good but not as memorable as I'd hoped it would be. I wouldn't recommend dinner at W+M. The house was packed on the [Friday] night I visited - plus several people standing around and drinking at the bar. It just seemed a bit suffocating where we were placed. Also, the restaurant is a bit loud so it's difficult to have a conversation with someone diagonal from you. If you DO plan to have a dinner party here, I would recommend requesting somewhere in the actual dining area. It seems as though reviewers are a fan of breakfast/brunch/lunch, which I wouldn't mind coming back to give 'em another chance. The dinner was just not my thang. read more

I visited with my husband for a romantic dinner. We had a reservation so we were seated quickly. The ambiance is bright and modern. However, some of the tables are a little too close together and we ended up unwillingly eavesdropping on the customers seated next to us. We ordered red wine from their extensive selection and a fruity cocktail, both were tasty. We then ordered hummus and the meatballs. The hummus portion is extremely generous and perfect for sharing. The meatballs were incredible with a slight hint of mint. I would highly recommend this place for a nice night out. read more

My husband and I have been waiting to come to this place for quite a while. The place is really nice. I love the spaciousness and the natural light from the windows and the chairs are beyond comfortable. We ordered from a very narrow and overly priced selection of brunch items. I had the chilaquiles and my husband ordered the avocado toast, and at the end of our meal, we wanted to try the pancake. The chilaquiles ($20) dish had a nice and original presentation, everything was yummy but the beef was under seasoned. I never ever ask for salt and this time I did. The waiter took a long time to bring just salt to the table. My husbands avocado toast look ok. Very simple. The eggs were over cooked and the little avocado was smeared (on the brown side) on the very yummy bread. Bacon was alright, not tasty at all The temperature on the pancake was not as expected. Since this restaurant was not packed as usual, I think they could have put more attention on the temperature of food and coffee. My coffee was super bitter. I really went with high expectations to this place. I will probably won't visit again because of our experience and because the prices don't match the quality of the food and service. read more

I went here with a friend for a 10 am Thursday brunch. I was immediately greeted with a fresh, open space and super high ceilings. All the decor was modern, simple, and clean. The first thing I noticed was this restaurant focuses on baking, as their were many delicious breads next to a glass wall enclosing the baking area where you could watch skillful hands kneading bread and the largest kitchen-aid like machine I've ever seen. Even though bread is their specialty, the waiter easily accommodated my gluten-free needs. We both had the cup o' joe, a solid orange mug of endless, steaming black coffee. I had the peanut butter and replaced the brioche toast with delicious home style potatoes. The fried eggs were cooked perfectly over easy and they dressed my potatoes with their hot, golden yolk. The crispy, buttery bananas and nutella were a sweet ending to my meal. My friend had the mushroom toast and enjoyed it. The service was gracious and allowed us to talk and refilled our coffee long after we payed our check. I recommend this place for brunch as they even offer it on weekdays, especially if you like baked goods. I'm sure it gets crowded on weekends. Two thumbs up. read more

Here's a brief summary of weights+measures. Good ambience. It's a cute space and looks much nicer inside. I like the big windows with a lot of natural light. I've been here 4 times and the food is mediocre, nothing special. The bakery is pretty good, but again, not like I crave it. Drinks are meh, but not bad. Service? RUDE. I honestly don't know what their problem is. When your food/pastries/drinks all taste mediocre and nothing stands out, then at least learn to be nice and attentive to the customers. There are way too many awesome, beautiful brunch places around htx. I really don't recommend this place. read more

Weights + Measures - Doughknots, latte, grapefruit juice - Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

4.5 stars. Was really excited to try this place after reading all about it in Houston Eater and finally got the opportunity today for brunch with some friends. I heard the wait times can be ridic, so I called ahead to put our name on the list as it helps expedite the process. Once we got there, we let them know and were told we would get a text when the table was ready. While we were waiting, we all split a pastry from the bake shop at the front of the restaurant. They had a wide assortment of cake donuts, muffins, danishes, etc plus coffee drinks. We were seated within 15 minutes of arriving considering it was peak brunch time on a Saturday-not bad at all! I got a peach bellini and the roasted carrot pizza-both were fantastic! The crust was amazing and the pizza was so flavorful. My friend did not like the special she had gotten, so immediately the waitress took the dish back and offered to change her order. She ended up getting the burger with a side of vegetables that she really enjoyed. Everyone I was with loved their food and drinks. When we got our checks, we were all presently surprised how cutely it was served-receipt in an old school casette tape! The ambience at this place is great with bright and airy windows, large space, and the ability to fully see into the kitchen. The customer service at this place is top notch. I also love the fact that they actually have a large parking lot instead of having to hunt street parking down or valet as is the case at many other restaurants especially considering the area just 2 blocks away appears a bit shady. There were several other items on the brunch menu that I'm hoping to try next time I go including the mushroom or avocado toast which were recommended by the waitress. I will be back. read more

I came here for brunch with a friend and was not disappointed! The ambiance is one of the best I've been to in Houston - a bit reminiscent of Tout Suite with its industrial vibes and trendy decor - and dishes are of delicious and unique variety. I ordered the smoked salmon toast with spinach on the side (I swapped the pumpernickel for ciabatta and highly recommend it). Though I thought and still think $14 is a little steep for this meal, it was a huge portion and totally delicious. I would order it again, though next time I think I'd either go for the avocado toast at the recommendation of a friend who loves this place or the chicken and donuts - I saw them at the table next to me and they looked heavenly. I also loved the presentation of the food on the huge white round platters! Next time I will try one of their pastries - they smelled amazing and it was fun to be able to watch them being made through the little glass window near the bakeshop. Service wasn't great, but could have been worse. Regardless, I will definitely be back! read more

Weights + Measures - Smoked salmon toast with ciabatta bread - Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

Dear Weights + Measures, You are so friendly. You may look like a basement from the 1970s (not indistinct from That 70s Show), but your staff and atmosphere is both comforting and trendy. My friend was running late to dinner, and your kind staff refilled my water twice (and asked to dine with me, which made me smile). The waiter came by only twice. Once to make sure I was okay, and the second time when I asked him to come over and bring me a GSM as well as suggest an appetizer. I really enjoyed how your waiter was not pushy, honest with suggestions, and savvy with table setting and arrangement. I appreciated the space I was given to enjoy my time before my friend's arrival. My friend finally arrived (probably 30 minutes after I sat down), and he ordered the same drink. Since he's a fan of this place, and it was my first time, he ordered for us! We ended up having some delicious cranberry bread with pea/Parmesan dip, rib-eye meatballs, carrot pizza, and potato gnocchi. It was all so wonderful!! I hope to return with my beau. You have such a great place for a nice date, a first date, a birthday dinner, or just a night out. It's even solo-friendly! Thank you for a wonderful time and until we meet again... AuRevoir, (PS - please excuse the formatting, it's difficult to do properly on Yelp) read more

My friends and I came here for dinner last night, and we were so impressed with this place. The facility was spacious, the ambiance was nice, the service was good, and the foods were excellent. We started out with the bread with foie, duck bacon, and tomato date jam. This dish was fun & flavorful. Our entrees were the anchovies pizza & the couscous salad. The anchovies pizza was very different, unique, but really good!! The couscous salad was light & good. For drinks, I ordered a drink called Tiger's Blood, and I really like it!! It's like a shaved ice with alcohol. Yuuum... Another group of my friends & I came back today to try their brunch/lunch menu, and we all loved what we ordered. I had a hardwood smoked bacon sandwich & it was so good!! For drinks, I ordered a Bellini & it was so refreshing & pretty to look at. Two thumbs up for this place. I will definitely come back & try the rest of their menu. read more

They suggested the patio when they saw us in yoga pants, but that's whatcha get when you open outside the dance studio. We'd just stopped for a quick drink but didn't make it out without a dessert and a loaf from the bakery. The wafting smell of doughknots brought us in. Actually it brought us in weeks before it opened and they said come back soon. A little annoyed they couldn't sell bakery goods at the table, but I'm sure they'll figure that out. Flourless chocolate cake, sea salt atop was a spiritual experience. Tom Collins was excellent, well-balanced. Quick and confident wine selections from our server. Nice mixed age and purposed crowd. Dates and birthdays, business and one solo packing a laptop. Walks the line nicely between swanky and casual. And checks served in a cassette case? I'm such a sucker. Will absolutely return. Highly recommend. read more

Loved the ambiance, service and most of the food. For starters, we got this green pea mush with walnut bread, which was the most divine thing I had ever tried. If you think healthy food can't be delicious, you have to try this. I can't remember the exact name but just look for the green pea dish under appetizers. As for the main course, I was a little disappointed. My waiter recommended the primavera pasta which I generally opt out of because vegetables thrown into pasta doesn't appeal to me; however, I thought I'd give it a shot. Major regrets. The quality was good but I just wasn't into it. Wouldn't recommend given the availability of other seemingly delicious options. The ambiance is on point. I loved the industrial interior paired with halogen lighting. Very stereotypical yuppie but I'm mainstream like that. Service was also great! Other than the poor recommendation on main course, our waiter was prompt and attentive. I'll be back for other dishes esp the dessert! read more

Thrilled to have an eatery walking distance from our house. This place has lots of parking, very clean, and bright. We missed breakfast (at 11am) and got their lunch menu.The best draw to W&M is the fresh baked goods when you first walk in the door. We had to wait 10 mins for a table so we ordered a flat white and a Dutch Apple muffin at the bakery. The muffin was warm, crumbly, moist and delicious. The flat white was a bit too bitter. Service was slow but totally understandable because they are new and still trying to figure things out. We ordered the mushroom pizza and a pulled pork sandwich. Pizza was $9 and was half the size of the table. It had huge chunks of mushrooms that tasted of delicious savory pork fat...so good. A draw back to the pizza was that it is more like a flat bread and the dough in the middle wasn't as crispy as we'd like. The sandwich was huge and for about $13. It came with a side of warm homemade potato chips and delicious pickled veggies. The pulled pork was tasty and paired well with the sauerkraut but the sandwich as a whole isn't a stunner. We will definitely come back and try to make it to their breakfast menu. read more

The space is beautiful but I wish the food and especially the service was better than it was on my two visits. Our last lunch may be my last. Panko chicken parm came out At room temp. The breading wad partial black and was falling off. The frisée lettuce was gritty and dried out. The service was apathetic at best. The server dropped of the order and was gone. I had to go get her after about 20 minutes. I saw the server at the table next to us at least 4 to 5 times.They just weren't on and it was dead given that it was something like 2:30 PM. Meh. read more

Weights and Measures is a modern American eatery set in a 1950s warehouse. The interior has a bright but retro feel, with a whole lot of natural lighting, curious green carpeted chairs, and waiters wearing colorful floral dress shirts. When we first entered for Sunday brunch, I was struck by how diverse the patrons were - young and old folks of all genders and races. It felt like a charming slice of Houston. I ordered a bloody Mary extra spicy to start, which was fairly average and not especially piquant albeit strong. I ordered the House-Smoked Salmon, which came atop some pumpernickel toast and nestled under some black truffle scrambled eggs and a side of sautéed spinach. The fish was among the best smoked salmon I've ever had. It was fresh-tasting with a mouth-watering woody smoke and caramel-like sweetness. The purple onion added some necessary acidity and crunch (the place IS called Weights and Measures after all...it's all about the counterbalance). The eggs were a bit dry and called for a few cranks of salt, but the truffle added a delicious earthy element. The dry dill on top seemed somewhat haphazard and I just set it aside; part of me wishes it had been incorporated into some sort of crème fraiche or cooked into the eggs. My wife had the Peanut Butter Nutella brioche toast with bacon and it was a simple but effective combination. The Avocado Toast and Fried Chicken and Donut were both well-received by the rest of the party as well. I admit that I'm not the biggest fan of brunch to begin with, but W+M was an enjoyable and pleasant meal in a non-traditional setting. read more

Weights + Measures - House-Smoked Salmon - Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

Slow Dough's dining concept is a success! This open space consists of a bake shop, restaurant, and bar. Bake shop: I'm a huge bakery fan, so I love the bake shop. Everything is delicious - but the muffins are a definite standout, in my opinion. There is something sweet or savory to satisfy any craving. Excellent coffee as well! Brunch: They take reservations, so you don't have to worry about waiting! I couldn't resist getting the avocado toast, and I was not disappointed! The quality of the bread with fantastic ingredients took it a step beyond what I make at home. Since it was my friend's birthday, finished with a giant slice of carrot cake. This carrot cake is PHENOMENAL. Full of nuts and spicy/cinnamony flavor, I would come back simply for that cake. read more
