I was in a brunch mood and a friend recommended this spot. Brunch didn't happen since this place has every breakfast bread but waffles So I ordered the chicken enchiladas and all was well. Their mimosas were served by the "pitcher" in soda cups. That being said I'd come back again. read more

Buffalo Grille - Chicken Enchiladas - American Near Me - Houston, Texas

Buffalo Grille has been a family favorite for over 5 years. The consistency of their food and service is remarkable. Their staff is friendly and tenured. It's amazing how long some of their staff has worked there, but it's no wonder because they all seem to get along and love what they do. We like Buffalo Grille for their breakfast, but they have a great lunch and dinner menu. We like their omelettes, migas, blueberry pancakes, thick cut bacon, and my favorite their chilaquiles. Their cinnamon flavored coffee is also a fan favorite and they sell bags of it for those of you who can't live without it. Their lunch and dinner menu ranges from burgers, meat loaf, casseroles, and chicken fried steak. They have a few healthy choices including grilled chicken and veggies. I recommend Buffalo Grille to people who are looking for homestyle cooking with a little Tex-mex flavor. It's quick, easy and consistent. read more

Ok.... we went to Buffalo Grille!!! On Woodway and Voss it was quite delicious. Jerry had the breakfast special. It consisted of 2 pork chops, eggs, grits, 2 huge biscuits, and hashbrowns. The Children and I had short stack pancakes with bacon and an egg over medium. I had coffee was really tasty.. roasted cinnamon flavor. And Jerry and the kiddos had OJ! The atmosphere was really nice. Your neighbor table was just far enough to not feel invaded. The decor was like a cabin or lodge. Kinda felt like I was in Wyoming The staff was very plesent, quick and on point. read more

Came in with my wife super hopeful about this place. Unfortunately, we left really disappointed. Essentially, this place buys stock food off the Sysco food truck (a la cheap college/cafeteria style) and marks it up to Woodway-at-Voss prices. There's no "made from scratch" here. On a slightly tangential note, the inside smells just a little "off"; right on the edge of tolerable and unappetizing. I really wish I could write something positive about it, but there really is nothing special about this place. If you need a quick bite and don't care about quality or price, you'll be ok with this, but otherwise I recommend taking your hard earned money across the road to Trader Joe's and getting some ingredients for a meal at home. read more

Food is ok but the service is below average. There was a guy today at the register who failed to meet the customer expectations in terms of the quality of service and attitude that does not rise to the standards required in any successful business, let alone a restaurant in a high-end neighborhood which is frequented by people of high social stature. We asked him if he recommends a specific item on the menu, he responded with sarcasm making silly remarks about our query!! It's shocking and disappointing that such a place especially in the Galleria area hires someone like him with disrespectful attitude and make him deal with customers! Will never go back again. read more

The guy who is supposed to be taking my order was not wearing a mask. No social distancing cues in the restaurant. I'm out.

I eat here for breakfast at least once a week with my infant daughter.. let me just say not only is their breakfast my favorite over any other restaurant, but they are so kind and helpful to my baby and I! Their toasted cinnamon coffee is to die for... their pancakes are amazing and even the french toast. Staff is A+ I recommend to everyone!! read more

I hardly ever remember to review a place. I legit scraped my plate. Fast service, friendly staff, delicious breakfast. Most plates are below $10. And they have mimosa's in a pitcher for $12. I would've tried it, but I don't care for orange juice. Will definitely come back time and time again. read more

Great blueberry pancakes and great service Very good value for money for breakfast on a Sunday read more

Came here on a whim. Parking was tough as it shares with multiple stores (not a very big lot tbh). You order your food and wait for them to call you so you can pick it up. No table service which isn't bad. Food is mediocre for the prices (ordered the 3b). Food came out relatively quick but luke warm. No real flavor to food either. Coffee isn't anything to write home about. Seating is awkward too. Staff gave us wrong receipt, couldn't take our Visa gift card and argued with me when I tried to get them to fix it. I don't recommend coming here. Denny's or iHop are way ahead of this place for far less money. read more

Try anywhere else if possible!! Lacks any customer service! Served breakfast cold or just warm - butter wouldn't even melt on toast! Sausage links were NOT breakfast sausage! The omelette looked like it fell on the floor. The Diet Coke was Diet Dr. Pepper flavored and they wanted to argue it wasn't. Really crappy experience! read more

What the hell Yelp? I'm losing more and more faith in my fellow Yelpers as I try their recommendations. Because this place flopped, and it flopped HARD. Buffalo Grille is known for their breakfast food. Pretty simple, right? I enjoy breakfast burritos and sausage biscuits from McDonalds, so it can't be that hard. WRONG! To the Yelper who posted a picture of menu item 3B (2 scrambled eggs with cheddar and bacon): This was some of the worst breakfast food I've ever had. It literally tastes like nothing with a hint of eggy. The english muffin was incredibly dry and so cold the butter would not spread. To the Yelpers who raved about the hashbrowns: They were even worse than the shitty eggs! NO crunch, completely slimy and greasy, completely soft and limp, and I FUCKING THOUGHT THEY WERE GRILLED ONIONS UNTIL I PUT THEM IN MY MOUTH. They too taste like nothing, but this time with grease instead of eggy. To the Yelpers who posted pictures of and praised the peppered bacon: Best Western's free breakfast buffet does it better. Have you never had bacon? It tasted literally of only salt and pepper. In fact, I'm pretty sure if I salted/peppered my own bacon, it would be much better. Was it worth the $3? Fuck no! The only redeeming aspect of it was the texture, simply because it was greasy as hell. To the Yelpers wanting to try the catfish: This was the only reason Buffalo Grille didn't get a 1 star. It was alright, like a C+. I ordered the Acapulco Catfish which comes with Spanish rice and pico. The pico completely overpowers everything else. The lemon they give you to accent your fish is literally sliced so thin that it's only good as decoration. I got a side of the "parmesean and rosemary" mashed potatoes. It came out cold. Not like room temperature, but actually cold. Like it had been sitting in a fridge and the guy didn't microwave it long enough. It was bland. CONCLUSION: 1. THIS PLACE SUCKED. 2. At $21 (no drinks), I expected better than iHop. 3. Yelpers either don't know wtf they're eating or talking about, or the quality has gone down the shitter. 4. This was my first and ONLY meal of the day (8:30pm) AND I DIDN'T BOTHER TO EVEN TRY AND FINISH. 5. My buddy, whom I ate with, is now taking a VERY AUDIBLE SHIT ONLY 45 MINUTES AFTER EATING HERE. IT SOUNDS TRAGIC. Imagine grabbing breakfast here and then going to work with that impending doom. read more

I feel like this place is underrated, but I may be a tad biased due to their cinnamon coffee. Did I mention free refills? Other reasons why I'm a fan: - light, fluffy, and huge pancakes - thick, peppered, chewy BACON Overall, pretty home-y and ranch-y environment with a friendly staff. Not sure how it's like when it's not breakfast time, but I wouldn't mind having their pancakes and bacon for lunch and dinner (and snacks). read more

This wasn't a standout restaurant for me. The food was okay. The service was pleasant. And the atmosphere didn't do much for me. I have friends who have been and they enjoy it but I think I prefer places with a bit more flavor. Both in atmosphere & food. read more

If this review could have a title it would simply be "Why?" Greasy, fattening food - the kind that is so offensively caloric that you wonder what the intention of the dish even was - overwhelmed by either bland or overpowering spices, unfriendly staff, and dirty tables (I mean, dirty, as in the grimy table top was bordered with an inch-deep crevice full of unidentifiable, dried food crumbs) were just too much for me. read more

Talk about a spot that may be a little bit of a hidden treasure in Houston, Buffalo Grille just may be it. I have been coming to this place since I moved to Houston and it has yet to ever disappoint me. Whether it is the breakfast menu that they serve all day, with there huge Texas sized pancakes or the amazingly delicious Huevos Burritos or Rellenos, or it be the great lunch and dinner menu, Buffalo Grille is always ready to impress your taste buds. I went on a Friday night and too my surprise...STEAK NIGHT!!!! A 10 oz, New York Strip served with either your choice of two sides or a fully loaded bake potato all for $11.95. However, as I am standing at the register ready to order my carnivore's delight, something so very appealing crossed my eye's...someone had ordered the special, Pecan Crusted Catfish with a creamy creole sauce on top, served over a bed of rice, with your choice of one side and a heaping piece of jalepeno cornbread...OMG!!! The portion sizes were huge, definately enough for two meals and it was all for $9.95. The pecan crusted catfish was quite tasty! It had a very mild and smooth flavor that was complimented very well by the creamy creole sauce. The jalepeno cornbread was moist, buttery, and totally completed the meal! And as for my side...a huge side of fries that were great. And as for that New York Strip? My girlfriend ended up getting it and it was well cooked, tender, and quite tasty! So go give this place a try...you wont be disappointed! read more

Solid breakfast spot with pretty good coffee. I love that they have warm syrup My omelette was a little bland but could have just been the specific one I chose. Pancakes were good! Would give it another try if we are in the area. read more

To be honest, I'm rarely awake for breakfast when I head down to Houston to hang with my college buddies. Unfortunately, the one time I was awake, I was pretty disappointed with the breakfast offering at The Buffalo Grille. Star 1: How was the service and atmosphere? What I will say is that Buffalo Grille has the atmosphere bit down pat. With a simple walkthrough ordering process and abundant seating both inside and out, it's easy to see why TBG is such a weekend brunch hangout. Service is fast and friendly. Star Granted. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? To be completely honest, I don't remember how much I paid for my bagel with a side of hashbrowns, but I'm confident it was under $5, which is completely reasonable. Star Granted. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? And with that it all went wrong. First and foremost, my onion bagel was bland, boring and obviously store bought. To make matters worse, it wasn't even properly heated, and I was tempted to disregard it after only a few bites. The hash browns? Equally weak. It's hard to botch hash browns, but it's equally hard to really nail them. Instead of a crispy treat with wildcard flavors like pepper and garlic, these were soft and soggy, representing everything I dislike about poor hash browns. Poor. No Stars Granted. Star 5: Would you eat here every day if you could? This wasn't a good breakfast, so no. No Star Granted. read more

I went to the place on a Sunday hoping to beat the church crowd. Big mistake. This place made me so uncomfortable with the limited seating and waiting for someone to get up so I could take their spot. The food is mediocre at best, nothing too good to rave about; typical American breakfast/brunch items. I did laugh about the review that said he thought the hash browns looked/had the consistency of onions - I totally thought the same thing! I wish I could give this place more stars but I didn't feel the atmosphere of this place warrants me to come back and try other things on the menu. tl:dr (too long:didn't read) - don't come here on a weekend, the place is too packed to enjoy a meal; unless you wanna play hunger games for a table. read more

Whenever I'm in Houston, people always suggest going to yuppie brunch spots like Benjy's or Baby Barnaby's, when all I really want are Buffalo Grille's buttery pancakes, cheesy stuffed baked potatoes, and delicious french toast. Don't get me wrong, those places are pretty good, but sometimes all you really want is a brunch that's not going to break the bank and a waiter/waitress who is not going to bother you every five minutes and coax you into leaving. Thank goodness for Buffalo Grille where a good meal usually costs me $8 or less and you can stay there hours on end without being bothered. I first discovered Buffalo Grille on New Year's Day and it was the best hangover cure ever. DON'T JUDGE ME, I know this is a family friendly place, but sometimes you need some good breakfast food to cure a bad hangover. Our group got tons to order, but among my favorites were the hash browns (so golden and crispy!), strawberry french toast, omelette, and my absolute favorite was the stuffed baked potato (#4) that has cheese, avocado, salsa, and so much goodness in it. Seriously, I still crave it. I've been back a couple of times and once a friend got their cream cheese and chive eggs which were also delicious. The place is not a fancy restaurant by any means, but it definitely is cute and cozy. It's great for big groups and their menu selection is huge, so it will definitely satisfy any taste. Also, the fact that Voss Creamery is so close is a huge plus! read more

TERRIBLE!!! My sister and I had the pancakes, both BURNT! I cannot believe a food establishment would even consider serving pancakes so burnt that they are inedible!!! All I could smell was burnt food. I will never return to this place!!! Save your money and go someplace else!!! read more

Buffalo Grille - BURNT PANCAKE!!! GROSS!!! - American Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've been to the one inside the loop and I've found that the Voss location is better. So I'm going to go ahead and give my thumbs up to this place. I love me some breakfast food at all hours of the day, so Buffalo Grille is a nice place to get it. The food is greasy delicious. I always get the Migas and I always leave full and happy. The one thing I do not like is the bacon. The bacon tastes kind of like jerky to me so I tend to stay away. From what I've seen the non-breakfast stuff isn't great, but that's what you get for not getting breakfast food when it is available. Did I mention I love breakfast food at all hours of the day? read more

DONT EAT HERE! The chicken is frozen, grits from a box and cold, disgusting chicken fried steak, Mac n cheese lacks flavor. At best, Mediocre food and ABSOLUTELY RUDE MANAGER, JOSE ARNIVA. It's time for him to retire! He made ageist and sexist comments to me on several occasions and refused to let me order soup on one particular day. He spoke in a condescending manner and used ageism repeatedly. I'm always polite and this is the last time JOSE will ever address women in this manner. Ageist, sexest, or racist comments are illegal. It's time to take action and I AM! If you're so desperate for customers, perhaps you should treat the one you in front of you with respect. I will be posting pictures at a future date as well as any pertinent information regarding action. The McAleer family are out of touch with what is happening in their restaurant and are not interested in their patrons as stated on their website. This 9th generation Texan thinks it's time to "Come and Get It". read more

Below average quality! Weak coffee, store-bought bread, tortillas, and salsa....like cheapest stuff on the shelves. Everything appears to be low-end and store-bought. Nothing made in-house. 99% sure the salsa they serve is Pace. :( Not up to par with other Houston restaurants. read more

On the rare day in Houston when the weather is perfect...it is hard to eat breakfast on the Buffalo Grille patio. I always get the omelet but my daughters love the hash browns. Sometimes a line on Saturday and Sunday mornings...but well worth it!! read more

Buffalo Grille - The patio at Buffalo Grille! - American Near Me - Houston, Texas

Pancakes as big as your face!!! Great place for breakfast, with something for everybody. Food is reasonably priced with a down home feel to the service and restaurant. I love going there for breakfast on the weekends! read more

Coffee yummy, all else: ehh ... Pros - yummy toasted cinnamon coffee; large pancakes; wi fi Cons - overpriced average eggs and hash browns; surly service; long, slow soup-nazi style lines at all times, even mid week; bacon served cold; tables that are too low and will make you hit your knees every time you sit down; cramped tables; limited parking; super tiny menu board you can't read until you are at the counter itself read more

Maybe I came on an off day, but this place was just plain mediocre. The portions are generous as are the price points, but the overall quality of the food was just alright. First off, it seemed like the cooks don't exactly take pride in what they're making, it was as if they phoned in most of the food so as to keep everything moving quickly. The food was reasonably tasty, but not something I would wait in a wrap around line for. The seating isn't exactly plentiful either, as it seemed highly plausible to be left unable to find a table after ordering. That said, the atmosphere was generally pleasant, which I suppose is a large factor in the place's appeal. If you want a big plate for not a whole lot of money, and an environment that's better than Ihop or Denny's, you could always come here... but you'd be better off at Le Peep. read more

A friend told me about the banana wheat pancakes... and I'm now addicted. It was so tasty, I went back twice in a week! With 2nd Baptist next door, Sunday gets a bit hectic. However around 9:45am there's a nice lull/window opening to get food without much of a line and struggle to find a table. The chicken apple sausage was bland, migas are great, and hotcakes are huge! FYI... you can ask for a single "short stack" sized pancake a la carte in case you wanted just a little something-something on the side. read more

Love that they serve breakfast all day and will definitely be back for that. The hashbrowns in my #1 breakfast meal were flavorful and cooked just right, and the biscuit was pretty good too. I'm giving it 3 stars - I'd give it 3.5 if I could - because I haven't discovered anything super unique or special about their menu. It's just basic good food. This is probably due in part to the fact that the first time I came here I was actually a little disappointed because I had heard so many good things about their breakfast that I was expecting to be exposed to exciting new culinary delights. But it's your basic choices - eggs, pancakes, meats, biscuits, hashbrowns, cinnamon roll the size of your plate, etc. Again, all good choices, just for some reason, from the hype I was expecting "lemon ricotta pancakes with homemade strawberry balsamic glaze" or something. Great place to meet up with people, especially when you are paying separately, because you order at the counter and food comes out quickly - no need to split up the check afterwards. read more

The food is passable. But it's the kind of place with orange cheddar cheese, buttery taste spread, and maple flavored pancake topping. Which is fine-if you don't know any better. read more

Our food was TERRIBLE. The only thing that I could eat but was still very average was the Fried Okra. My fried catfish & fries were UNEDIBLE. My husbands pork chops were not good and about 1/3" thick at most. The dinner roll was too hard to bite into. The young lady that took our order & brought our order to us was very nice. read more

This is definitely a local favorite; high school kids, families, and college kids love coming to this place for cheap and unique food. My favorite thing to eat is the baked potato; it is southwestern style with salsa and other delicious add-ons. I didn't give the full five stars because the french toast is pretty average. Also, check out groupon now; this place is on it which makes eating here even sweeter. read more

First time customer. Busy place but no wait. Sat inside but have outdoor seating. Solid cheeseburger and fries. Only complaint is it is super loud inside (they call out your name for orders when they are ready and its like a bus horn and the acoustics of the place don't help). Will go again. read more

The people and the environment were great. We didn't realize that they close at 2 on Sundays and we walked in at 1:55 and ordered. No one said a word to us about what time it was. They were nice and very attentive. The inside of it feels like a little Texan bbq joint or some country cabin. The menu was a lot bigger than I anticipated and I sort of freaked out and just ordered the first thing I saw. It was really boring because it was just two scrambled eggs, hash browns and toast. The hashbrowns were sort of soggy and the toast didn't come with butter or jam or anything. The eggs were just eggs. The food wasn't enough to love or hate, it was just food. My husband got the Juevos Burrito and I had some of it. It was REALLY good. It was huge and cheesy, like an omelet wrapped in a tortilla with sauce on top. I wish I wouldn't have hesitated and just gone for safe because he was full all day from that and I was starving two hours later. Even when we left they were so nice. He saw we had food left on our plate and offered to get us a soft plate to go and thanked us for coming. I really am looking forward to going back earlier in the day and being prepared for something tasty instead of something boring. read more

It's with a tear in my eye that I give The Buffalo Grille only three stars. But it's with a pounding vein on the side of my forehead that says I must. In one sentence: great food; mediocre seating; snobby, obnoxious clientele. Want details? Keep on scrollin'... First, the positives: - Food. Neigh. BREAKFAST. There's a reason you see a line out the door each and every morning at The Buffalo Grille. Their pancakes are massive, yet so tender and delicious you have to get two! And there are so many options with fruits, nuts, wheat batter and more! - Then there's the bacon. Good Lord, the bacon. Get a plate of that. Three slices of those peppered, crispy pork strips and even the most die-hard vegans will convert! - And there's the coffee. Ohhhh. I'm shaking my head and smiling because if you haven't had The Buffalo Grille's toasted cinnamon coffee, your bucket list just got longer. Just thinking of it causes my mouth to water. Easily compares to any local coffeehouse. - The price for these slices of heaven is moderate. Full menu's on their website, but off the top of my head: two pancakes is $5. Order of bacon's $3. Coffee is $2.08. Down to a science, baby. Now the drawbacks: - The seating is not designed for the tall or the American. You were supposed to laugh. But seriously, the tables have that bar on all four sides that removes a few valuable inches from your knee room. And the chairs are only slightly more sturdy than La Madeleine's. - And then there's the clientele. This place is designed to look like a Texan cowboy's hideaway, but think more along the lines of high-rise Memorial business types who drive Benz's and Suburbans and come in wearing blue sport coats. Not as "together" friendly as the folks at Dot Coffee Shop on 45. But forget that for a day. I recommend you go for the *breakfast*. Get there early! Doors open at 7:00 a.m. M-F and a line forms by 7:05! read more
