Came here as I was traveling through Texas and it was down the road from the hotel I was staying. I got the French onion burger and the guava cocktail and it was on point! The hostess and server were both great, service was quick and the meal portions were both big as well as satisfying. Also got the spinach and artichoke dip for starters, and it was hands down the best I ever had! read more

I ordered the Hang over burger it was great. My French fries were good, but it would've been better if they were more crispy and hot - they were kind of soft and just warm. My friend got the rotisserie farm bird - he said he liked it. You can never go wrong with a burger and fries. read more

I'd like to start up by saying the service was excellent. Our Server was very attentive, sweet charismatic and we tipped 20% lol They have a wonderful whiskey selection and some very good specials on whiskey Now to the two star parts. The goat cheese fondue was overwhelmingly salty with the Kalamata olives. They completely overpowered the goat cheese, garlic bread, everything The worst part was the burgers. Not one of the burgers came out at the right temperature. If you're going to ask us how we would like our burgers cooked the kitchen needs to make sure they cook the burgers properly. Anyway, I didn't even take two bites of my burger. My guests ate about half of each of theirs. The fries were kind of limp but tasty would be nice for them to be a little crispy. They have the ability to be great, but I would say epic fail on the food, but great job on Service and ambience read more

Good spot for food, drinks and gatherings. Service and atmosphere: Service was okay. Our server was not too attentive. Had to ask another server for refills. The restaurant on the other hand looks great. Modern, contemporary and lofty designs and decor makes it stand out. Food and drinks: Very good in both areas. The food ordered was very flavourful, well seasoned and balanced. Ingredients were fresh and had good texture post cooking process. The restaurant offers really good selection of cocktails. Definitely recommend to try their creations. Pricing: $$ - standard prices and well justo for quality of food served. read more

This place has always been a favorite of mine. Most recently i went for brunch and was not disappointed. I had the strawberry short-stack pancake it was delicious! I paired it with their grits and it was the perfect sweet and spicy combo. I got the cinnamon roll as well. The cinnamon roll was tough to cut but the flavor was good, especially the sauce. The service was great and the restaurant was clean as usual. I definitely will be going back for brunch again soon read more

Whiskey Cake Kitchen & Bar - Cinnamon roll, Strawberry Short Stack (single), Jalapeño- Gouda grits - New American Near Me - Katy, Texas

Came by for brunch on a Saturday and everything was awesome! We ordered drinks that were perfectly made, the Cold Fashioned (cold brew old fashioned) and the WC Old Fashioned. Then the deviled eggs are always a good choice. The food was great! Those crispy potatoes with chili oil were crunchy and addicting. The breakfast sandwich is my new go to dish for brunch here. My wife loved the farmers breakfast. I ordered extra grits because they were so good! My only complaint was that the glasses for water were a little dirty and the water bottle came out with some stuff floating in it. But not a big deal. If you want a good brunch, then head over here. You won't be disappointed. read more

Went for happy hr and stayed for dinner. I had a nice outing with my coworkers. We shared appetizers,laughs and a few cocktails. I ordered the steak frites with creamy horseradish sauce. Steak cooked medium paired with truffle fries. It was perfection in each bite. Pricing is decent for happy hr and their regular menu is fair as well. Plenty of parking in their private lot, farm style bathroom area and plenty of seating options at the bar and in the restaurant. Check them out for brunch, happy hour or dinner! I'm sure you'll leave satisfied. And dont forget to grab a slice of the infamous Whiskey Cake read more

Update on review as I didnt remember coming since my last review was 3 yrs ago. The food is really good. I've tried it a couple times and didn't prefer it, but I thought why not let's give it a shot at the location in Katy since I hadn't been. The gentleman at the bar was a younger African-American gentleman and he was extremely nice. My only thing was I sat at the bar and he never told me that there was a happy hour menu so I ordered off of the regular menu and only noticed that there were happy hour items when I saw other people Ordering. no complaints about the food or his service. He was really really nice. I don't remember his name. He says he is at the bar pretty often. I will probably come back. read more

Omg! I found the best fish and chips in the area! The fish was perfectly cooked as it was so flaky and tender. The batter was light and crispy and not greasy. I love that their fries are hand cut and they are really good. The fish and chips dish is hands down 5/5! I can't believe it took me this long to try Whiskey Cake. The restaurant is very spacious with lots of seatings, yet its rustic modern-industrial décor and dim lighting give off a warm and inviting atmosphere. It's very Joanna Gaines. While the ambiance is casual, the food is exquisite and the portion size is very generous. The service was incredibly friendly. My server was warm, welcoming, and attentive. I highly recommend trying their Whiskey Cake and would rate it 5/5. It was too much for two people, so I took it home and was glad I did because I enjoyed it the next day for lunch. Who doesn't love cake for lunch? =) I will surely be back soon! read more

We decided to stop here and truly enjoyed everything! The food was delicious and the ambiance was warm and inviting. The staff was very friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. The place was clean and well kept, which made the experience even better. The chicken and waffles were good especially with the Tabasco sauce! It added the perfect kick of flavor. The only thing I didn't enjoy as much is the charred taste however this maybe a place I will circle back too. read more

Whiskey cake is the place to be!!! The food is amazing and service is the best I have had the space is clean!!!! Check em out !!!! Thanks read more

Got the chicken and waffles which were fire. Super crispy chicken, fluffy waffles, loved the fried egg, and the side of gravy was excellent. The mac and cheese was pretty tasty. Also split a burger which I thought was just fine. Had to get dessert and there was one clear choice: the Whiskey Cake. I mean if you go to Whiskey Cake and you don't get the Whiskey Cake did you even go to Whiskey Cake?? This ish is MADNESS. So insanely good its rich and fluffy but dense and creamy and smokey and nutty and just such a beautiful creation wow. read more

Drove a shout and 10 minutes to visit Whiskey Cake for an event. Man! What a pleasant surprise. The event was empowering. But the ambiance was amazing! It feels like you're stepping into someone's large living room with all your cousins! The lounge area near the back is so inviting to just sit a while. The servers were awesome! Our server was Cody I believe was his name. He handled our party very well, while also assisting patrons in the dining area. Even more amazing was the assistance offered to help me get in my car. The manager on duty , asked Cody if he would back my car out, because the car beside me parked to close for me to get in. Cody happily helped, as well as load my walker. I am beyond grateful for their help. Now, the food was delicious!!! During the event I had several appetizers, as well as an entree. No complaints at all! This location is definitely one I will return too. Thank you Whiskey Cake for an excellent experience! read more

I enjoyed this restaurant. The glowy ambience and the rustic feel is very high end. We sat at the bar and the bartenders were pretty attentive. There are two TVs if you find the need to watch football. I really came here for the pork chop! And it did not disappoint. Please get it. The perfectly crusted and juicy. Amazing. The deviled eggs present well but were very very bland. Didn't finish them. The crispy potatoes were pretty good. Could have been more crispy and seasoned but with some ranch they were edible. The Gouda Mac and cheese was ok. I think chefs may need to start tasting the food to see what is missing. Flavors were lacking all around. I have been twice and it's the same. Espresso martini was not good. Taste like sweet, bitter coffee. I am quite the connoisseur and this was my least favorite that I've had in a while Beautiful location and inside and kept very well. Very cozy. read more

We came here last minute for a dinner with friends and we were surprised with how good it was for a chain restaurant. I had the steak frites and the steak was sooo good. The steak was cooked perfectly and the fries were perfect! The bone in pork chop was also amazing cooked perfectly and full of flavor and the peach that came on the side was amazing. If you do get a couple of appetizers you HAVE to get the candied bacon and goat cheese fondue. Both appetizers absolutely amazing, full of flavor and a must! We will definitely be back the quality of the food is unmatched. We highly recommend! read more

Great food with nice service as always. Have been to a couple of Whiskey Cake locations. Had a great evening here for a work outing Monday night.. There were over 20 of us. Our server was very friendly and accommodating. It was weird that we mainly had one server for such a large group. But for the most part she kept up with us all. Had a few appetizers to sample, the charcuterie board. Deviled eggs and goat cheese were all great. Top quality ingredients. My main entree was sadly cold on the outside and only warm in the center. Things did not come out all at once, so it was not a matter of 20 plates being served at same time. But food was still good. I got the English pea pasta ; and sadly found out I do not like english peas (not restaurants fault) but chicken, sauce and pasta were great themselves. I gotta add the atmosphere is great. Feels like you are eating in a cabin, and the restroom it self is just cool to look at and experience.... read more

Came here for brunch over the weekend with my girlfriend and another couple. We made reservations for 12pm on Sunday and were shocked that it wasn't crowded yet. We were seated in a booth off to the side with the best dimmed lighting, it was very relaxing. The food was delicious and HUGE. I ordered the Croque Madame-It (LOL) and it was heaven in my mouth. My girlfriend got the short stack, which was confusing, because it was gigantic. I'm so curious to see what a normal stack would have been haha. We didn't drink but loved that they had a Women's History Month themed menu :) read more

This was such a neat place to grab dinner. The atmosphere was a mix of trendy, farmhouse, and a whiskey lounge. While I wasn't participating in drinking any alcohol this particular evening, I did enjoy the Ruby Slippers mocktail. It was a delicious blend of strawberry, agave, basil, and lemon. Not too sweet or sugary, it was just right! I wasn't overly hungry, and I wanted to save room for dessert, so I got a side of fries and the side of mac & cheese. Both were delicious! But let me tell you, the whiskey cake was where it's at! Sticky toffee cake with bourbon and pecans and homemade vanilla whipped cream - OMG! The serving portion was big enough to share, but with the way it tasted, I didn't want to! read more

Whiskey Cake is always consistently good. The service is always excellent as well. We had the deviled eggs and added Tabasco for some heat. The candied bacon melts in your mouth. The shrimp and grits were good but slightly over cooked. I think the grits didn't shine through because too much cream was added. I forgot what it was called, but it was good-bacon, sausage, crispy potatoes , and eggs. read more

Hi I'm Jason new here to Katy area I have a couple of concerns about the staff and the waitresses at Whiskey Cake the favoritism the upper management just lets the staff talk about customers and disrespect customers as well I came in with a party and we where so disrespected my party left and I told the manager and nothing happened so i will be taking more action read more

Dude yikes. What happened to this place? I understand a few menu changes, but by gosh. I got the steak frites and they completely changed it. They cut my steak for me (one of my personal pet peeves) and the frites were atrocious. My husband got the French onion burger as recommended by the server and it was ungodly salty. After three or so bites, he said his tongue was dry from all the salt. I tasted it and agreed. The goat cheese fondue was universally oily and needed some fresh greens to freshen the dish. Everything was oily, oily, and some more oil. The whiskey cake itself was the biggest disappointment. The crispy, crunchy, spiced and balanced cake is gone. Now we have a caramel drenched soft cake. I loved whiskey cake because it was such a departure from the sugary sweet desserts I can get anywhere else. This was our anniversary dinner and I remember why we don't come here. read more

I am extremely disappointed and honestly extremely upset by my experience at this restaurant. We came here to celebrate my son's birthday, and while the food itself was not the issue, what happened afterward has been incredibly distressing. I have a 3 month old exclusively breastfed son who has a dairy allergy. Because of his allergy, I cannot consume dairy at all. Before ordering, I specifically asked our waitress, Kim (I believe that was her name) whether the meal I was ordering contained any dairy. I made it very clear that I could not have dairy because of my baby's allergy. I was assured that the meal did not contain dairy, so I trusted that information and ate the meal. The next day, my baby broke out severely on his face, had blood in his stool, and was extremely uncomfortable for the entire day. As a mother, I cannot adequately express how upsetting and frightening it was to see my infant suffering. I immediately began trying to figure out what could have caused this reaction. I called the restaurant and specifically asked whether the Rooster Royale the meal I had ordered contained dairy. The woman who answered put me on hold to check and then came back and confirmed that the meal did, in fact, contain dairy. I was then transferred to a gentleman named Onyx, who asked me the same questions, apologized, and offered to refund my meal. While I appreciate the apology and the offer of a refund, a refund is not the point. The issue is that I specifically disclosed a serious dietary concern related to my infant's health, asked a direct question about whether the food contained dairy, and was given incorrect information. I relied on that information, and my baby became seriously ill afterward. I asked to speak with a manager and was told by Onyx that Taylor Miller the General Manager would contact me by the end of the day on July 26. No one called. It is now nearly the end of July 27, and I still have not received a call. I am extremely disappointed not only that incorrect information was given to me about a known allergen, but also by the complete lack of follow-up afterward. When a customer raises a serious allergy concern involving an infant's health, I would expect the situation to be treated with urgency and genuine concern. Instead, I have been left feeling ignored and dismissed.I am sharing this review because I sincerely hope someone in leadership at this restaurant sees it and takes this situation seriously. I would like someone from the restaurant to contact me directly, not simply to offer a refund, but to provide a meaningful explanation of how this happened, why I was given incorrect information about the ingredients, and what steps will be taken to ensure this does not happen to another family. This experience has completely destroyed my trust in this restaurant. We will not be returning, and I cannot recommend this establishment to anyone especially families dealing with serious food allergies. read more

Great dinner date vibes, low lightings. Service was good and food was an amazing portion! The whiskey cake dessert is a must get , it comes with their house made whip cream (ask for extra). Chicken/cheese sandwich is shareable!! I would recommend getting appetizer and 1 entree to share. wasn't rushed after eating as we sat and talked for another 30 min before paying the bill. Def would come back read more

When customers call to place an order don't place them on hold and never return to the customer. I was on hold for 20 mins, during this time I was able to call from a second phone and place an order. The whole interaction took 1 minute. I was still on hold as I entered and exited the building with my order. I would recommend a different location even though this one by far has seemed less busy. read more

Went here for brunch on Saturday, December 6. Service was amazing, friendly, very knowledgeable about the menu, and quite accommodating with a special request regarding an allergy. Table shared candied bacon and the massive cinnamon roll. both of which were quite nice. Meals included farmer's breakfast, steak and egg hash, crab benedict, and prime rib gouda stack, all of which were enjoyed! And those chili butter fingerlings, OMG. 2 of us had specialty cocktails, I had a non alcoholic one with faux tequila and agave that just simply rocked. And that bar is super cool! read more

Molly was a great bartender. She took my order right away and the food came out in a timely manner. The whiskey cake wasn't as sweet as I thought it would be. Same with the American pie cocktail. Both had good balance and it was a great way to cap off the night. Dessert and a drink! read more

Went here for HH with a friend. We shared a steak frites and roasted veggies. The food was average, but not bad. I ordered a dirty martini to drink and enjoyed it.

This is your average mid level restaurant- tried and true! read more

An old reliable every time I am visiting Katy on a work trip. The menu is broad enough to have something to satisfy any palette--from the picky coworker to the foodie in the group. Service is always friendly whether I am dining alone or happen to pop in without a reservation with 10 other coworkers. I am usually just checking into a nearby hotel after a long travel day, so it is a huge relief that I can always count on Whiskey Cake being open later than most restaurants any day of the week. Walking in and smelling the small batch, locally sourced Whiskey Cake candles, you know you are going to buy dessert! But first, drinks! The Apple Pie Old Fashioned is smooth and easy to sip. I wish the beer selection was a little more robust. However, being from the West, I appreciate Sierra Nevada being on tap. Every entree I have had is satisfying, but the Chickenbirdger is standout that is unique, flavorful sandwich. Now, for dessert! The Whiskey Cake is a must! It is definitely shareable, so just go for it! If you like the smell from the candles when you walk in, then you will love the dessert version. Somehow Upper Room Candle Company perfectly captured the taste of the Whiskey Cake as the scent of the candles that they hand pour locally. Whiskey Cake never disappoints to provide a reliable meal and extra special treat after traveling into Katy for work. I always looked forward to dining here, and even purchased a Whiskey Cake candle to bring back home with me. read more

Food was good, drinks are really good. I had both an espresso martini and a gin martini and they were good! It was also allergen friendly. We only had to work about a couple dessert dishes with pecans...other than that we get safe to order, which was confirmed by the manager! Ambiance is very nice with an elevated casual atmosphere. Now the service was awesome! Not to mention that the manager comes to say hello and ask for questions. Definitely coming back for the food, drinks and the service! read more

Wow, wow, wow! The anniversary dinner was a grand slam this year at Whiskey Cake. I had only been here once before for a business meeting, so I wasn't yelping but remembered the deviled eggs were phenomenal. The current DE in the chef's rotation was BLT, and four days later, we are still talking about them. That was just the appetizer! Both the chicken and waffles and chicken rigatoni pasta were scrumptious. I had the Texas whisky flight, and my wife had a speakeasy, Rita, which we both enjoyed. The waitress was attentive, making the whole experience a great time and a relatively efficient dinner. We grabbed a whisky cake to-go, which we indulged in when we got home from our night out. We will definitely be back soon! read more
