Went to the Lowe's nearby, and decided to grab a quick bit. Willie's is always a good option nearby. The concept is different depending on where you want to sit. For the main restaurant, you order prior to being seated, and then they bring your food when it is ready. We prefer to sit in the bar, as it is full service. Had a $5 app for happy hour (fried mushrioms) which are great. For dinner I had a Wille's Bacon Burger, and my wife had the Rib-eyey tacos with street corn. I had a tall Michelobe Ultra to drink... they always have the COLDEST beer! Lisa had their Cat 5 Hurricane. Both were great! Always a solid choice. Willie's is great! read more

willies, you took away my childhood arcade. i'm so sad. i'm 25 but i still loved seeing that arcade!! Kids need a safe space to make friends while their parents chit chat and have a beer! I don't understand getting rid of the arcade, but keeping the sand pit. I think i understand a little because it seems like it's trying to be a sports bar now :( i still love the decor and vibes of the restaurant. there is now a bar area where the food ordering was, so now there's not a designated line for ordering which doesn't look good in my opinion. seems like the breading on the chicken tenders has changed too :( Server was very attentive and kind tho, restaurant wasn't busy on a friday at 6pm. read more

I've been coming here for many years. I use the app to get some rewards. The keep making the awards more difficult to get but this year they started prematurely deleting your rewards hoping you don't notice (I guess) But if you bring it to their attention it still a little rough to get. Watch your rewards closely if you eat here! read more

Decided to order here for lunch. I'm so glad that I did. My salad was amazing! The chicken was still hot, presentation was nice and the dressing paired very well! I'd definitely order from this location for lunch again. read more

What's happened ????? The remodel; No more pulling beers from a tub of ice! Just sit down at the bar and listen to rock n roll and watch 6 TVs! Love it! But Bartender guy needs to work on banter. I got a cheeseburger. Good, except the lower bun disintegrates under the 1/3 lb patty. At $11.00 with side, I could handle it, but definitely room for improvement in the bread department. read more

Gerry did amazing job!! he was really Sweet, took care of us. I would pick him to be my server again!

Thank You Steve for helping me set a reservation for my group of 28 within days notice! Our waitress Alexis E. was amazing and so attentive to our group! She seriously didn't skip a beat! Our Food and beverages came out quick and were good size portions. Our group had a great time! read more

Pretty mediocre. This is an icehouse in the way Texas road house is a road house. It isn't. It's just a chain restaurant. The food was blah. Wings didn't have much sauce. Everything was kinda greasy. Prices were too high for what it is. Waiter did the classic let me go check in your food and immediately comes back with Luke warm food meaning someone forgot to bring it out. Margaritas were weak. Honestly I wouldn't bother with this place. Go to Kirby or Sawyer Park if you want an ice house. read more

Came for the crawfish. 3/16/25. It's early in the season so they were mostly small w/ a few medium size. Honestly, I didn't think they were very spicy. Needs some additional Cajun seasoning on top. For those who haven't had crawfish here they have changed the delivery style. Gone are the red plastic trays. Now the bugs come in a plastic bag in a bowl. I ordered 3 lbs and it looked like 3 lbs. it's disappointing when you feel the weight is off. Anyways, I'd call the crawfish just fair. I'd give it a 3. Also, got a side of onion rings. Now I've traveled extensively and these are the best onion rings I've ever had. I'd give it a 5 The atmosphere is light, open, and fun. This isn't a bar type of place. Service was fair. Hardly saw him. They need more servers. Also had a very hard time getting someone to initially take my order. I'd give service a 3. read more

Two sides to the restaurant, bar is full service and the other side is an order at the counter. Server was great, very friendly and had lots of recommendations. Unfortunately on the cook side the medium burger came out extra well done and the Philly cheesesteak had very little cheese. Just ok. read more

It's use to be great. Not so great anymore! We use to come here in the Woodlands Willie's all the time. But the food is not great anymore read more

The food and service were excellent, but I was surprised by the level of customer service at this establishment. We visited with a large group and enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere. This was my first time here, and I would definitely return. I found the ordering and payment unconventional, especially when it differs from typical models. In the setup, ordering at a counter, receiving food at your table, and paying after the meal--the establishment seems to blend elements of both counter service and traditional table service. This hybrid approach can offer several advantages: Enhanced Dining Experience - Allowing customers to pay after the meal provides a more relaxed dining atmosphere, similar to full-service establishments. Accurate Billing: Settling the bill post-meal ensures that any additional orders or modifications are accurately reflected, reducing potential billing errors. Encouraging Gratuity: customers might be more inclined to leave a tip when paying after the meal, especially if they've received attentive service, aligning with traditional dining expectations. While this system may initially seem confusing, it aims to combine the efficiency of counter ordering with the personalized service of table delivery. Our waitress was attentive, came back to check on us, and did her job well! read more

I saw a $3.00 margarita sign, and thought, how odd, the hours aren't posted (happy hour, etc). Inside I found they are $3.00 all day, EVERY day. Our burgers were very good, the spicy guacamole. And, the burgers come with fries, but you can substitute grilled or steamed veggies or Mac & cheese. There seem to always be a drink special. This is our next burger place when in the mood for bur read more

This was my 2nd visit to Willie's Icehouse. Tonight, Addison was my first interaction as she was at the register taking orders and helping people like me make decisions. With her assistance, I went with the seafood combo - blackened catfish and grilled shrimp. For dessert, I chose the peach cobbler - amazing! Very casual and laid-back environment, which I feel is comforting. Many TVs all around the perimeter walls of the dining area, with a variety of things to watch. Prices are fair, service is above bar, casual and welcoming environment. Willie's Icehouse should be a regular stopping place for food, drink, and fun. read more

Perfect day to sit near or outside .. food good (although my salad was wrong, but I probably needed the grilled chicken rather than the fried chicken !) sweet waitress ! read more

Why do I keep coming back here? Because my friends like it and I like my friends. If it was up to me, we would never come back. There are too many other options. The food is always over cooked and just not good. read more

Willie's Grill and Icehouse We went to lunch here on a Friday around noon. The restaurant was busy, but we still had plenty of tables to choose from. After placing our order at the entrance line, we made our way to a nearby table. Our server was quick to greet us and confirm our orders. My order of fried catfish with french fries arrived piping hot. The fish was cooked just right and the fries were very tasty. Service was excellent and atmosphere was friendly and inviting. read more

We had a fantastic time even though there were some issues at the restaurant due to the construction happening near by. The reason I gave 5 stars regardless? The Customer Service was on point the staff were giving updates on certain items and what was going on and being completely transparent which I love! The young lady helping us at the front (Kivana I'm sure I got that wrong but maybe close) Was hands down just amazing for our first visits. She was so sweet, gave us some great recommendation, a free order of pickles and the run down on how everything works. We had a another young lady as our server who was just as awesome. I promise I wrote down names and now I can't find them. But she had blonde hair and purple glitter lips it was pretty cool. She was on top of everything for us drinks, foods, updates on what was going on she was just awesome. These two really made the visit a great time. The friend pickles and mozzarella sticks were very fresh. I ordered the chicken tendies taco with street corn and mac n cheese. I really enjoyed my tacos just gonna get some extra sauce next time. Street corn wasn't for me but Its not for everyone so I'll order something different next time. Mac/cheese was just your standard mac and cheese. My significant other got the wings and loaded fries big thing they don't charge extra for flats and I love that! He requested his wings extra crispy which they were and the flavor was good. The waitress did let us know the wings are the item that takes the longest on the menu so there was a little bit of wait for those. Loaded fries 10/10 would recommend crispy, cheese, delicious. I truly can't wait to return! read more

Was staying in the hotel next door and didn't want to drive anywhere with the god forsaken traffic at this hour. I would eat here every day if I could! Had the gumbo (off the charts) the redfish tacos (amazing) and for desert the Apple Sizzler (OMG, incredible)! To top it off, the sweetest and most kind bartender (Harmonie) served me - she is the best!! Highly recommend!! read more

Over cooked crawfish that was unseasoned, fried chicken with no flavor, fountain drinks were flat. French fries were seasoned though.

Food was amazing and the service was stellar. Our server Gerry knocked it out of the park with how attentive he was. Overall a great experience! read more

Our server Misty was amazing! We had a large party and the food was amazing and quick.

This is my kids' FAVORITE place. Any time they have a chance to go to a restaurant this is their choice. We've been a few times now and we've always had great food! The portions are good, it always seem fresh and it's just tasty! You have to try the fried pickles and fried mushrooms. Service is slow at times but they're always friendly. The environment is casual and comfortable. The most recent time we visited there was a balloon artist which really impressed us all! read more

This place never disappoints, great food and great service. Liz H was very attentive and always on top.of everything!

Always great food and great service, Misty was fantastic this time! I like the tender bites, queso, and frickles!

This is a great casual place to gather with friends, our waiter was Analise, she did a great job..I'll give her five stars! Food was perfect, Cajun pasta and grilled chicken salad were ordered...both were fantastic. Beer was cold, price was right, all was well! Only thing would change about this great restaurant is to change from ordering at the counter to ordering from the table. read more

Sunday lunch time at Willie's again- had to have my favorite crawfish tails but this time I got tater tot's and they did not disappoint. I really do think Willie's specialty is fried foods because they always come out great. Chicken fried steak is excellent- well seasoned and huge, great value considering the price of food these days. Special shout-out to Candis our waitress, she was friendly and attentive, even offered a to-go drink. read more

Haven't been here in at least 10 years. We use to love it good burgers, cold beer, and fun atmosphere. We'll the atmosphere was fun & the beer cold.... but the burgers were just what ever. I'm not going on for days here but this place use to be good.... there are plenty of better burger joints I'd rather spend my cash at... Sorry Willie's your past your prime. read more

I would still recommend Willie's. However, I want to give feedback to the restaurant. We have moved from Houston. Every visit back is a must to go to Willie's for the margaritas and the Buffalo tenders. This visit, the Buffalo tenders were not as good as before. They weren't as crispy. The Buffalo sauce was scant and not the same or as good. I ordered the tater tots and they weren't seasoned as nice as my memory of the fries. I was disappointed. I'm hoping this was just a fluke. Service was great. I like that the bar area is separated. read more

The only reason I am not leaving a 5 star is because my crab legs were rubbery and my husbands Cajun platter was hard to peel the crawfish and shrimp. The flavor was on point though. Maggie provided excellent service! The weather was perfect for the doors to be open giving a perfect ambiance for patio dining and the draft beer was cold! We will be back for sure! read more

Well, they are correct, not the same the food was tasteless, and as you can see hushpuppies are overcooked! The presentation? Ha take a look, the food was upside down all over!

Food is always great! Liz was our server today.......awesome service, very attentive. Ambiance family friendly

We have been going to Willie's for years and now since the bar area has been built, we go even more. (At least 3 times a week if not more). It could be just husband and me or us with family and friends but service has always been good. Then Rick came along and hands down we really like him. He has excite customer service skills and knows how to make drinks. He made me a drink and his way, that drink was so delicious. Went back 2 days later, Rick was off and the girls were having problems making a good Bloody Mary. So when Rick came back I told him he needs to teach the girls. And he did just that. Took the time to show both girls step by step how to make one. He did not have to do that but he wanted to make customers happy. We really enjoy going to Willie's and being in a great atmosphere. Go see Rick!! read more

Great staff at the bar! Rick always gives great service. And the happy hour is a really good value.
