    So this place is known for its drinks and bar food and honestly, it delivered on those two fronts, and service was actually really great as well. How do you go wrong with honey Butter croissants seriously good. The starters we had were the Santa Fe spinach dip, which was really delicious, addictive. I had the classic margarita with patron and it was delicious. Very big sizes bang for your buck. I also had the Key West chicken and shrimp, with a pineapple pico de gallo honestly it was delicious. It came with broccoli that was perfectly steamed, and a little bit of butter. Everybody seemed to like their dishes. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe was pretty chill with a big screen TVs honestly worth going back.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Stopped here on the way back from Homestead for lunch and they we were able to get quick seating. We were able to order appetizers and entrees with a good turn around on the time. I was able to place my order for modifications for gluten and dairy free items. However when the bill came there was an up charge. Apparently the server removed the rice and substitute it for a bowl of salad leaving me with just one side and explained that there was an extra charge after the bill came. If I knew that I would be getting less food for more money I wouldn't haven't ordered it and this is a dishonest practice. I asked to speak with the manager and they were able to take off the extra charge.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]BEUTIFULL restaurant inside nice comfortably sitting area booths, great menu items[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . I got the breaded fish it was crispy delicious fish portions . Side of green beans they were cut in small pieces with a slightly Smokey sweet flavor completely different twist on beans . The croissants were amazing every one loved them , so was the spinach dip and onion rings , and the Arnold Palmer was the best I've ever had our server she was amazing we had a great time good food great service plus at a reasonable price worth visiting

    Chicken tenders $14 no dipping sauce no fries.

    Kendall neighbors, listen up! Cheddars from scratch is a hot mess. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We got there at 3 PM on a Saturday we liked the ambiance, we were seated immediately; the place was dead.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Took forever to order and then our drinks took 30 minutes. We were thinking, okay, they're just really committed to from scratch. 2 waters and 1 bottled beer? Maybe. We were trying to maintain a positive attitude. But nope, our free chips and queso never showed up. My chicken tenders cost $14 and were missing everything else. We complained. Waiter did one thing he's very good at, that's ghosting us. A too laid back Manager came over and gave us a whopping 10% off he referred to as a "small 10% discount. Great attitude and and tried to act like he was doing us a solid. Servers were blaming the kitchen, we were blaming the servers. Don't bother to go there. You will be disappointed. Take your 2026 hard cash to Texas Roadhouse grill in the same area and you will have a solid experience.

    Very tasty dinner. Salmon was fine perfect. Broccoli was amazing and the Cesar was nice. The service was excellent. Not buts here. They are on point

    This restaurant was my nephew's choice for his birthday dinner. We walked in early on a Tuesday afternoon, and there were plenty of tables open. We sat in a big booth by the bar. My nephew recommended the cheese bites, which were so tasty. Loved their breading, it was light and crunchy. The honey butter croissants that the friendly waiter brought out at the beginning of the meal were pillowy and tasted decadent because of the delicious drizzled honey butter they were adorned with. We also ordered the Spinach Dip, which turned out to be my favorite dish. Not only was it super scrumptious and cheesy gooey, but also a great big heaping serving, which was more than enough for our table. I ordered a New Orleans-style pasta, which was bland and forgettable. However, those who ordered the country-fried chicken seemed to really be enjoying themselves. Another standout of this place is the Happy Hour prices, unheard of in these tariff times. [[HIGHLIGHT]]All in all, I can see the reason this place is a family favorite for many.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I'm surprised to see how mixed the reviews are from this restaurant. We came here for dinner with some friends and everybody seemed to be pleased with their food, so were the kids. To start off, the croissants were a total hit. The buffalo chicken wrappers were good but the mix of cabbage and pickle maybe does not go too well together. The coconut shrimps were fresh, hot and crispy. So was the country fried chicken. This one isn't my jam but husband enjoyed it, along with the gravy. Kids' meals were decent amount of food, compared to other places where portions are smaller. Service was great, from the person at the front to the main waiter to the person he was training. I liked the ambience too. The lighting and the way the restaurant is set up. Our personal experience for this visit was great and we all said we'd like to go back to try other things.

    Unique dessert that that is warm & cold. Perfect for just 2 people in my opinion. Cinnamon touch on the ice cream as well.

The…read morefood is incredible, fresh, and made with so much care, but what really makes it special is the owner. He reminds me of Carmy from The Bear--passionate, hardworking, detail-oriented, and completely dedicated to creating an amazing experience for every customer. You can feel the love and energy that goes into every dish. The service is warm, welcoming, and genuinely makes you feel like family. In a world of chain restaurants, this place is a true local gem.

    We originally stopped by Jealous Fork for what was supposed to be a quick breakfast…read more Instead, we found ourselves planning our next visit before we had even paid the check. On our first visit, we ordered the breakfast sandwich, the Banana Walnut Pancake, and two iced lattes (one with 2% milk and one with oat milk). Everything was outstanding. The breakfast sandwich was packed with flavor, the latte was perfectly balanced, and the Banana Walnut Pancake was on another level. The combination of caramelized banana, toasted walnuts, and their smoked maple syrup was absolutely RIDICULOUS. We loved it so much that we came back just two days later. This time, we shared the breakfast sandwich because we needed to save room for more pancakes. We ordered the Lemon Curd & Blueberry Pancake and the Brunch Still Hungover Pancake (their espresso-inspired pancake), and somehow they were even better than we expected. The Lemon Curd & Blueberry was bright, fresh, and perfectly balanced, while the Brunch Still Hungover was one of the most unique pancakes I've ever had rich coffee flavor without being overly sweet. That's the magic there for me, you might look at these pancakes and assume it's "too much" or might be overwhelming but the flavors are so perfectly balanced, it's a darn masterpiece. What really made the experience special, though, was the owner. He took the time to chat with us, explain the inspiration behind some of the menu items. You can tell this isn't just a restaurant to him, it's something he's genuinely passionate about. That passion comes through in every plate that leaves the kitchen. The staff was warm, welcoming, and seemed genuinely happy to be there. In a city where brunch spots come and go, Jealous Fork feels like the kind of place that earns regulars. At this point, our goal is simple: keep coming back until we've tried the entire menu. As I'm writing this in deciding to go back to try the burgers..BRB

Looked on yelp for a nearby place to get Ramen and saw wonderful reviews for KOW. And so I ventured over. Looking unassuming from the outside in a strip mall, this is a really nice place for a quiet and wonderful meal. I was struck how it was not just Ramen, but a variety of different cuisines on one menu. I really wanted to try them all, but stuck with Ramen as that is what I was looking for on that particular evening. It did not disappoint. People have described it as the best Ramen in the area and I will not argue that point. I will, however, say that the portion was on a small side and I was still hungry afterwards. This is the only reason for the missing star. The flavor was excellent. The protein and added dumplings were all perfect. The broth was delicious. The servive was outstanding.

Prices are a bit on the high side, but my first impression is that the value is there to command those prices because the food is superb. Potentially a five star restaurant...stay tuned.

Even so, I wanted to take a moment to write this review. First of all, I'm usually not a big fan of large restaurant franchises, but Texas Roadhouse is definitely an exception. This place is unique. No matter what day or time you show up, it always seems to be packed. The crowd is always having a good time, and yes, this place is loud as heck! If you're looking for a quiet spot to enjoy a meal and have a conversation, this probably isn't the place for you.
