Let's just start with service, TAYLOR is fantastic! Not only did she take care of my wife and I during lunch she shows that same fun passion with her other customers! Ohh, the food is consistently good but service is what we will remember! read more

Happy Hour- There are $3 margaritas and beers on tap and $5 appetizers (with some limitations on the more expensive items). What a great deal and the food is hot and fresh. If you have never been to Willie's, you will order at the counter, pick up your beverage, pick a seat, the waiter will come to the table and confirm your order, and you will pay after you eat. It is a very chill environment with lots of bar food (burgers, fried food, etc). My family usually orders some kind of burger. I personally like their mushroom turkey burger with sweet potato fries. Their kids meals are solid at $7.49 and come with a side and drink. I also like the fried mushrooms for an appetizer. read more

Needed a burger, stat! Here come Willie's. They certainly didn't disappoint. Immediate service with a smile. Sitting in the cool, eclectically designed dining area chomping on some chips & queso while waiting for my order was great way to start my lunch. The Willie burger with sweet potato fries was amazing down to the last bite. Definitely a spot to return over and over again. read more

I've been a huge fan of Willie's Grill and Icehouse for years. Through good times and bad, I've continued to support them, whether the food was excellent or just okay, and whether the service was top-notch or left something to be desired. Fried Catfish- 5/5 Side Salad- 5/5 Caesar Salad with Fried Shrimp-5/5 Coleslaw- 3/5 Big Willie Margarita- 4/5 Chips and Queso- 3/5 Cleanliness 4/5 Ambiance- 4/5 My husband and I decided to have dinner at this location on a Friday evening. As expected, the place was lively, packed with customers, and full of energy. Our food was delicious and served piping hot. The fried fish and shrimp tasted like they had been cooked in fresh oil--so kudos to the kitchen staff for maintaining high sanitation and cleanliness standards. I do have two complaints, though. 1. It was uncomfortably cold. The air vent directly above us blasted cold air onto our table, making it hard to relax and enjoy our meal. We ended up eating quickly before our food got too cold. This has been a consistent issue with Willie's for years--the dining area is often freezing! 2. The prices have gone up. It had been a while since our last visit, and we noticed a significant price increase. Willie's is all about comfort food, and while the quality is solid, it doesn't quite justify the price hike. If it's not broken, why fix it? That said, the service was great. Our waitress, whose name I believe was Alex--was incredibly friendly and attentive despite being busy. I also appreciated how neatly our food was plated, but the portion sizes are the same even though the prices have spiked. Overall, aside from the cold air attacking us, we enjoyed our visit. However, we didn't stick around for long because of the temperature. I probably would have ordered another Big Willie Margarita, but I didn't want to turn into Ice Girl--lol. The killing part is that we were both wearing jackets but still freezing. That's how cold it was. I'll still visit from time to time, just not as often as before. I recommend this spot for those who enjoy a high-energy, lively atmosphere where you can kick back, let loose, and unwind. But beware of the cold inside temperature...brr read more

Been coming here for years. Always sit at the bar for lunch during the week. Me and my crew are very unhappy with the decision to change the buns on the cheese Willie. Not going back until yall go back to the original buns which were way better! The new ones are dry and chalky. Might as well put the burger on sandpaper. Please do the right thing and change back as I am sure we are not the only ones who are unhappy with this. We always swear that yall had the best burgers now we might as well go eat at McDonald's. Very disappointed. read more

I went for my free birthday meal today, value up to $19.95!! I had blackened salmon, grilled vegetables and Mexican corn and everything was delicious. My friend had the patty melt burger, it was excellent. It was so big. She ate half of it and took the rest home. Excellent service. Family friendly restaurant we've been going to for many many years, and it's really close to home. I always love their hamburgers, the salads are huge, onion rings were giant and so fresh and delicious. I also like the fried mushrooms and fried shrimp platter. Try it I think you'll like this place! Lots of beer selections on ice cold to grab on your way in and you can get a flight of frozen margaritas! read more

Did an online order, Eddie has been my server twice and he goes above & beyond to make sure the order is correct. Our food is always ready before time, hot and put in my car with a smile! Definitely recommend their ToGo food. read more

If you're looking for a no frills American fare joint, Willie's is the place to go. The menu is quite extensive, but I've only really been here for the burgers and chicken tendies...both excellent! Willie's is set up like a fast casual restaurant where you order at the register first, but uniquely you still get a waitress at your table who will confirm your order and get you anything you need. Every time we've been we've had excellent customer service and great tasting food. I haven't tried their alcohol drinks yet but they sure do look yummy! Will be back for sure! read more

The food was subpar, your typical bar food, mostly fried. Fried pickles was our favorite but I asked for extra ranch too many times to count. The bartender Mia was checked out and not in the present. We truly feel it was her first day. She looked lost. The music was very loud. The location was good & central to our house and the grocery store. Not very impressive overall. May try again, may not. read more

I was recently dining at this restaurant with a visiting senior citizen with special dietary needs, and Manager Santi went above and beyond to accommodate us by personally making us a special coleslaw. It made my guest especially happy that he cared about her that much. It happened to be her birthday "week" so she was extra happy! Good job to all the staff. read more

For a quick service restaurant, I received 5 star service from Sydnee. Not only was she extremely attentive, she was always so friendly and upbeat!! I was having a hard day and she truly made me smile by the end of my experience!! The icehouse Cobb salad was fresh and light!! Wish I could substitute the blue cheese for another kind, but overall, the service took the win for the restaurant. Definitely will have to come back and enjoy the patio space for the kids to run and play! read more

Sometimes you just can't beat fried food, cold beer, and a place to watch your sports team. All willies nail those 3 components down solidly. This is the location I grew up going to and for 10 years now I don't think the menu has changed all that much, and I don't think it needs to honestly. I mostly come here for the frozen drinks, which could definitely be a bit stronger, and the beer. The food is just fine, and that's alright with me, just needs to soak up some alcohol. Walk up and order your food and find a seat, a friendly server walks up and gets everything taken care of for you after that. I love that you can just chill out here with your friends for a while and watch a game. The new additions of the bar and the electronic payment from your phone are welcome quality of life additions. read more

I go to the Hwy 249 site in Cypress. Mains and sides always delicious! Nice decor, pleasant staff. Always enjoy a meal there !

Casual place several fried options and salads. Recently joined over 20 family members to celebrate a graduation. They made the ordering process easy. I was skeptical when I realized we would only have 1 server. Emily was AMAZING!!! She proved me wrong. Can't say enough great things about Emily serving the large party. read more

Took my luncheon date to Willies located at 24236 NW Fwy today (10-29-25) for lunch and didn't really want a burger so i ordered the Gumbo Shrimp & Sasuage large bowl of Gumbo for $13.49. It was served "Luke Warm", 3 cracker packets, very little rice with in the serving but plenty of liquid making up the ingreadents,,, Plus it taste like it was from a Cambells can. Suggest sticking w/ their burgwer which my date said was excellent. read more

Food: Chicken Tenders are out of this world best I've had recently, thick juicy soft and huge!. 100% Recommend them. Outside seating was cozy. Service: Jordan was Great! Visited about 4 times, never felt I had to look for her. Trying the burgers next time. Great place for sure. read more

Wow Willie's has really lost its touch. We were there today and the food was just awful. Food was cold and had to be sent back. The grilled chicken sandwich tasted burnt. The pick two appetizers all the breading was tasteless and soggy. Only saving grace was our server Jennifer did what she could. When my food returned it was just nuked in the microwave which dried out my chicken and the rice was still cold. This was the second time we had bad food. In the past was never the case. read more

Can't really remember my server, but CERTAINLY REMEMBER BOLIVAR! It was a busy holiday Saturday afternoon, around lunch time, with all the kids home from school, college, out-of-towners, etc., so the manager, BOLIVER, picked up the slack AND THEN SOME! So friendly, attentive-throughout our entire visit-stopping by our table SEVERAL TIMES! Often picking up our used dishes, etc, refresh drinks, offering to bring us things, and always so helpful and friendly! Such a warm and energetic personality! We came for their great salads. We had the Texas Chop Cobb salad, and I had the Strawberry Pecan Chicken Salad. Both were HUGE - in size and flavor! Portions so large, I definitely had leftovers, and my hubby was quite full after finishing his. Overall: a great visit at Willie's!!! read more

The food is amazing, amazing service, and great environment. my server, Kaiden, was excellent with timing on bringing the food to the table, and making sure everything was good for everyone without having to ask too many times lo, shoutout to him and the restaurant, great place read more

This place is just okay. Not being from Texas, I didn't actually know what this place was like so I was taken aback that you have to order your food before you sit down and seat yourself. The food was mediocre, not very seasoned and the drinks were not strong at all. Probably won't be back even though I live so close. read more

Willie's has become one of our staple places to order from. We call and place our order and then drive there to do curbside pick up. The gentlemen named Jefferson usually answers the phone. He is polite. Our last order was a loaded baked potato with BBQ and a large order of crawfish. My hubby and I split both. They were both very good and cooked perfect. The brisket was tender and delicious. It is one of my new favorites. The crawfish had the right amount of batter and was so good. We still wish the coleslaw was bigger. The menu is not large but the items I have tried are always very tasty. I'm already thinking about what I am going to order this week for dinner from Willie's. Chicken breast, salad, loaded potato, crawfish...hmmm. All sound so good. read more

This chain restaurant is UNDER RATED! I have been here and several other locations at least once a week - it's our date night hot spot and I just love that is consistent! Great food, amazing waitstaff and quick! The food menu is my favorite because if you're looking to eat slim and trim, they've got the grilled platters ... or a salad. And of course, if you're leaning the diet in the car outside- they've got the fried food options - shrimp, catfish, fried mushrooms, fried onion rings... oh and they've got great hamburgers as well! Now that's just the entrees! You want to make sure you save room for dessert! Their bread pudding is uh-mazing!!!! I know bread pudding may not sound worth a try, I thought the same thing... but trust me! They have that topped with bourbon sauce and I promise you'll be ordering a seconds to take home! bar- saving the best for last! The location has spruced up the place and added a full bar with wrap around seating and It's really made a great add on. You can go with family or now have a seat at the bar and catch a game. Order the jack and coke frozen if you want a nostalgic icee feeling. And that frozen hurticane or lawn chair lemonade are good choices too! This location is winning! Definitely support this local spot. But if you're around the Houston area, I think you can't go wrong choosing any location as well. Btw- go to their website and join their eclub and 1st appetizer is free:) read more

i came last night to eat with a friend and there was this loud obnoxious lady who was sitting at the bar. she kept hollering and whistling at the staff which you could see made them very uncomfortable. this is a family friendly restaurant so seeing this behavior is not acceptable. other than the lady's actions the food was great and megan was so nice and so helpful. read more

My grandson loves Willies so to Willies we go. Lol. The crawfish were amazing and my grandson wiped out a pound. The chicken sandwich was a thin, dried out, tough bird. The bun was nothing special. The onion rings were delicious but my salad had wilted brown lettuce making it quite unappealing. I have been to 4 different Willies and never had a " wow this is delicious " moment. Willie's serves below average food. The quality of their food has continued to decline no matter what location you visit. The service was excellent but this is never my choice. I only eat here when I'm with a group or when my grandson wants to. There are much better options for the same grub for the same prices. Boring food. read more

We've been going here for 30 years since we moved into this area. We've tried many items on the menu: burgers, baked potatoes, fried crawfish tails, shrimp salad, nachos - everything was very good. Our current favorites are Shrimp Campechana, Chicken Tenders and onion rings. Servers are friendly & efficient. read more

Shout out to Megan Cunningham at the 290/Barkers Cypress. Went for just a snack and drink but Megan treated me like royalty. She was very attentive, made sure I had everything I needed, and was very bubbly, sweet, and outgoing. I will definitely come back and ask for Megan! read more

After getting no service at saltgrass we came here to Willie's Grill & Ice House....and they were much more attentive, the place isn't packed or empty it's just right! Like their margaritas btw I love margaritas these are just right, no light not to heavy but so good... tonight they had a limited menu maybe because of the recent storm I'm Not sure but I got the Willie's burger with the onion rings and some ranch on the side btw they have the best onion rings I have ever had anywhere they are big and thick and juicy.... Now small or dry..... the music/ playlist is good nothing to crazy just some good tunes.... Not to loud either lol..... the other item we ordered was the double stack burger and fries... the Fries are really good and salted properly... both burgers were pretty good nothing spectacular but not plain or bad at all.... The portions are really good especially for what you are paying for.... Again the staff was great even asked us multiple times if we needed anything. read more

Bailey was an awesome server, very attentive and friendly! Go get some chips and queso!

I love bringing my family to Willie's. The food is always great and atmosphere is fun and relaxing.

Willie's holds a special place. It's always simple and straight to the point. The food is always consistent, and the staff is inviting while taking your order. It's been a long time since we've been to this location, but they have a full sized bar when you enter and the regular seating as well. I ordered my usual shrimp poboy with fries, and my husband got the ribeye tacos with corn and chips and salsa. It seems like the menu has changed a few times... the poboy has an aioli drizzled, which I could do without, and the tacos are now smash tacos? A bit different than the regular tacos they had, but overall, okay. The food was hot and fresh, and it was more than enough. I do have to say the salsa that comes with the chips is amazing! It has some heat but not enough to have your mouth on fire. I would order that as a full-size appetizer for sure! read more
