Great food. Order & pay then sit down. Self serve for the most part. The brisket skillet was amazing. Pancakes amazing. The Only thing i disliked was the diced potatoes which is a personal preference on my part. read more

I had to take a quick trip to Houston and found this awesome spot tucked into a corner of a shopping strip. As you walk up you are greeted with a cute outdoor patio to the left with lots of gorgeous plants and succulents. You place your order at the counter then they give you a number and bring you your order. I got the coffee and brisket tostada and nothing was disappointing! And the perk is that with a Yelp check-in I got a free order of their grit balls! The coffee was brewed to perfection, very smooth and no bitterness like it has been sitting. The tostada was lovely, lots of different textures from the beans, cheese, eggs. I do wish the brisket would have had a bit more fat and flavor but it was still good. The grit balls were delicious! Very unique, light and fluffy which was nice surprise, I was expecting something dense. The service was absolutely amazing. I was greeted, very well tended to, and never ran out of coffee or water. The service was so impressive, if all places gave that type of service the world would be a better place! read more

A friend and I were looking into brunch options and decided on Dish Society, which seems to be a chain local to Houston. I also brought my daughter since she has no school. We made it there at around 10:25 am on a Friday and it's tucked in the corner of a small center with shared parking. I say tucked because good thing I was going slowly because the trees by the road blocked it until your last chance to turn in, haha. The good thing is the parking lot seems large enough to have minimal issues with parking. There were scattered tables by the time we got there. You walk in and order first, get a number, and seat yourself. So not quite like your usual assigned waitress/waiter arrangement but we were checked on multiple times while there. There's a bar and they serve a multitude of drinks. They also focus on breakfast, brunch, and lunch offerings from what I could see. My family are allium-free vegetarians and so I focused on one item and asked a few questions and was pleasantly surprised it could be accommodated. I ultimately got: House Omelette with the side of skillet potatoes - omitted the shallots from the omelette as well as the red onions from the potatoes. The omelette was nice! Lightly seasoned and had a good amount of veggies inside. The potatoes were the smallest diced I have ever seen. Rather on the salty side with a little zing from jalapeños but I liked it when I ate them with the omelette. They definitely could have been less salty. And I only found ONE tiny piece of red onion in it! Kids' Nutella French Toast Bites - This was for my daughter and it comes with a drink (boxed juice or organic Horizon milk) and she chose chocolate milk. It's one slice of battered toast that's cut into 4 pieces, drizzled with Nutella, dusted with powdered sugar, and with diced strawberries. My kid ate the strawberries before I could take the photo so now there were more. Plus the side of syrup. My kid ate 2 pieces! Not bad. I ate a piece and it's decent. Not like actual French toast with the custardy interior but as long as my kid likes it, we're good. Orange juice - fresh squeezed, still has a few seeds, no ice and served at room temperature. I really liked it! Perfectly sweet. My friend got the shrimp and grits which she said was good (though she thinks the grits could have more heat) but she wished there were more. Because she was still hungry, she got an order of beignets with the anglaise sauce (because it was too late for breakfast tacos). Oh my. Little light pillows topped with hills of powdered sugar and this delicious sauce that reminded me of a less strong version of the Indonesian Kopiko (coffee candy). Yum! Overall, a pretty good first impression! The place was airy and clean and not very loud. They also have an outside patio area but it's still too warm for me so we stayed in. For kids, they can color while waiting and it did the job for mine. read more

Had brunch here. Service was really good considering they were packed on a sunday with a 25-30 wait time on food. Everybody loves brunch. They weren't totally packed but pretty busy. The drinks were good. I had a laloma (a blood orange paloma) and a regular paloma, both were tasty. They did have flavored mimosas and flights which I didn't try. But it's offered. My friend had the expression martini and said that was also good. My friend had the chicken sandwich and said that was pretty good. I had the brisket plate and the beignets. Both were very good. I like how they have various menu items to try. I'll definitely go back to try more. read more

We tried Dish Soviety while we were in Houston for my MD Anderson appointments. The place was in a shopping center surrounded by apartment buildings. Parking was a little crowded. Inside was very nice and clean. The staff were very nice and helpful. My husband got the sweet potato stuffed with brisket. He loved it! I ordered the salmon bowl with nori rice. It had avocado, cilantro, and lots of yummy salmon. We also ordered the pretzel rods with queso. The pretzel rod were really good but you only got 4 in the order. We were out of pretzels before finishing the queso. The queso was really good. We got them to go. The food was put in a pretty big bowl. The portions were more than enough. We would definitely go back! It was around $47 for the two of us. read more

We'll take out I guess is a no. Ordered a sandwich, the pretzel app, grit balls, quinoa stuff avocado. The pretzels were packed in a greasy bag with *no dipping sauce...that's kinda the whole point of the dish. The stuffed avocado SALAD (one of my favs) had a maybe 4 leafs if wilted greens, a vapor of dressing if any, no purple onions/tomatoes. What a disappointment. I threw away the greasy soy not crispy pretzels bc I had nothing to dip the in, so what's the point? I mean that's why we did take out bc we had nothing "good" to eat at home. The salad wasn't a salad; the chicken was bland - I just really expected better from DS. Maybe some QC procedures for take out would be a good add. read more

First start, they are cashless. I chose a omelette with coffee (9am). Meal came out right away. I would suggest coffee be placed at bar and at coffee brewing location. Two patrons and myself waited for coffee to be brewed and returned to bar. Employee left coffee at brew station. Several minutes passed before I could enjoy my second cup of hot coffee; there first. Once meal was completed , no one cleared table; I had to ask for table to be cleared. True for two other tables. Only four tables occupied. Overall: Nice atmosphere, pleasant food, a tweaking of Customer Service is all that is needed. read more

I recommend frequenting another location! Super slow Sunday it took 30 minutes for us to even get our drinks another 15 minutes for us to get our food and then I'm sitting here waiting 20 minutes for the pancake that was supposed to come with my order. They proceed to bring food out to a family of four that had just been seated 10 minutes after part of our order came out and I still had to wait another 15 minutes for the pancake to make it out. I had already had an issue with the girl that took our order in the front and I tried to let it go, but then the grits were runny and watery, not like how they usually are thick and hearty & I'm still waiting on my order to be remade. There's nobody in here for the service to be this terrible. Just go to another location! read more

Overall, this is a decent brunch spot. I stopped by on a hot Houston Sunday for brunch with a friend. They are very busy for brunch - we stood in a long line that fortunately moved quickly. I ordered the House Breakfast Tacos while my friend decided on the Brisket and Eggs. I was pleasantly surprised to find a check in offer for a complimentary order of Smoked Gouda Grit Balls. The staff were very pleasant and quickly put in our orders. We were lucky to find a table as the restaurant was pretty packed. They have both indoor and outdoor seating (and we of course opted for indoor in the Houston heat)! Our food came out quickly and looked great. We tried the smoked Gouda grit balls first and enjoyed them. They have a good mix of the grit and cheesy flavor and had a nice crunchy exterior. They paired well with the sauce. The breakfast tacos were not quite what I expected. I enjoyed the corn tortilla but found them a bit too oily and cheesy for my taste. I probably wouldn't order them again. However, several of their pancake options looked tasty and I might come by again to try them! read more

I had the most delightful experience at the Dish Society the other day. I happened in for a late lunch and had such a lovely time! The Social Hour specials were not only delicious but also an amazing price point! The staff took care of this mom out for some me-time! Katie (manager) and server (Jose) along with the rest of the team were very helpful and attentive. I didn't sit with any dirty dishes (a pet peeve of mine) and their recommendations were so yummy! I've already told so many people to go check them out! Sad I can't take them back home read more

My experience was amazing, Jose was our waiter and he was extremely attentive and friendly!

XO- I LOVE YOU! Your personality is amazing and your service is top tier. She recommended the brisket, eggs, and grits and it did not disappoint! Me being the big backian that I am, also ordered a buttermilk biscuit on the side with some honey- taste just like my grandmother's biscuits! Delicious. The vibes were great, the music was great too, I was wiggling in my chair to some Stevie Wonder. Perfect. If you find yourself in Houston- COME HERE! And lastly- a carafe of mimosa is $17 WHERE THEY DO THAT AT?!!! read more

Waited to be created 5 mins to long, red flag. Order the brisket with egg horrible husband had the shrimp and grits was too salty. All to say I will NOT be coming back here read more

Love our local Dish We adore the managers and are always well taken care of. The food is consistently good, I like that the menu is seasonally rotated, and the patio is nice when it's not ungodly hot outside - even then, they still have fans and it's in the shade. read more

i don't believe in rating lower than 5's unless something is truly atrocious because i know what it can do to a business. Also, supporting locally sourced food is so important. Unfortunately, this is really a 4, the food was impeccable and clearly fresh but every single table was dirty and no coffee was made after an hour of being open and slow, and we paid $45 for this. food is wonderful, but the morning prep could use some work. read more

Nice casual restaurant to meet family or friends for brunch or dinner. Great menu with so many options. Order at the cashier and then find a place to sit inside or outside. Started with an avocado toast. Lemon zested mascarpone and local honey spread on a toasted slice of whole grain bread topped with sliced fresh avocados and a sunny side up egg. Sprinkled with a splash of everything but the bagel seasoning. So delicious. For dinner, the deconstructed chicken pot pie was so fun as an entree. Chicken, peas, carrots, potatoes and onions in a creamy pot pie base served with triangles of puff pastry. Get a full or a half portion. So perfect on a chilly winter evening. Our friend liked his burger and fries. Sat outside on the patio, but could have sat anywhere on an unusually quiet Friday evening. Nice to have outdoor heaters. Our waiter came to check on us a couple of times. Parking is so easy. Hints: check in for a free order of smoked Gouda grits. (Will have to use that coupon next time). Save the flyers that come in the mail for a free appetizer or dessert. They don't expire. Use the coupons in the community magazine for BOGO entrees, salads or sandwiches. read more

I have visited this restaurant two times. The food taste wonderful and the bread and pastries are so fresh. Definitely worth the price paid. And I plan on visiting again. You do order before you sit. However, it's not a problem to sit and review the menu before you order. And it's a serve yourself beverage service. Highly recommend giving them a try. read more

This is a very nice brunch place and the service is great. I had the chicken and biscuits and I thought it was too salty. I also tried the chicken sandwich and it was delicious. The fries were crispy and fresh. I would definitely try this place again for brunch as the environment is very nice and they have a bar available. read more

Excellent food. Can order and be healthy. Even my daughter likes it. Also, the couple times I've come we have had a different person at the front desk, taking our order and each time they've been super nice. read more

I really hate to write this because I really wanted this meal to be amazing. Our food looked delicious when it came out but did not have eggs on the biscuits as ordered. They were on the side. Not a huge deal even though they forgot to add one to one meal. Instead of just grabbing it the waiter brought out the receipt and let me know I hadn't paid for it. Ok... well I ordered it... and he said well would you like to buy one? The line was 15 deep at this point and I had hot food already in front of me. I said sure but can I pay later? He brought another egg. The food was SO salty we could barely eat it and I like my food salty and well seasoned. We left most of an $85 meal for 3 sitting there. The place is decorated well and we didn't have to wait. There's that. Other people's food looked really good so maybe someone just accidentally salted our food numerous times. We're here in town for a concert and I trusted the Yelp reviews and sadly we won't go back and I'm disappointed in the experience. Hopefully others don't have the same. read more

I visited this location and planned to dine in on 06/29 with a group of 4 but decided to go to a different location after the extremely rude service I received. When we arrived it was rainy and the indoor seating was packed. While waiting in line the party of 2 in front of us saw a table open and walked to the table to reserve it. Seeing someone just had done so when I saw a table big enough for 4 I quickly walked over and sat down to reserve it. Before I could even sit a heavier set older lady approached me coming from behind the bar and asked if I had ordered. I responded no and told her my order was being placed by someone else & I'm just making sure we have somewhere to sit. She responded that it wasn't allowed so I brought up that I had seen someone do it right before me. She then said that even if they did it, it doesn't make it okay so she has to stop me from doing it. I couldn't help but feel a little profiled here as I was being singled out. It's okay if there's a rule but only enforcing that rule to the couple of younger adults was icky feeling. I told her we would take our patronage elsewhere. We went across town to the dish society in memorial & received stellar service. I asked if there was a rule about reserving a table & the ladies said they had never heard of such a thing. We dined there but are not sure we really want to go back to any dish society given the unprofessional attitude we received in West U. For a while now we have raved about the dish society in West U. There's a guy manager there who has been spectacular and we have always appreciated him! It's sad to say that one person can change the entire experience. Unfortunately for now, I don't see us returning. read more

First time trying Dish society gotta say they exceeded my expectations. The food was delicious I ordered the stuffed avocado(forgot to take photos) but the dish was beautiful so much green in it lol. Being our first time, we appreciated that the manager Vince came to introduce himself and offered some great choices before we ordered. He also added that kids eat free on Tuesdays! Overall, the place was very clean and the staff were very polite. Great place for brunch, or lunch. Great customer service, very welcoming will definitely be coming back! Vast parking too! read more

Food was good, but counter service and sterile environment. I might go back for lunch, but not dinner.

There are several of these restaurants in the Greater Houston area and I dined at this one last Friday night. Parking spaces are plentiful in front and after walking in saw that this is a counter service facility that also includes a full bar. After reviewing the menu, I chose the shrimp and grits entree for $18.75 and adding a tall beer from the bar. The food arrived about 20 minutes later. This meal comes with an egg on top in your chosen style and I went with sunny side up. Under the egg were several grilled shrimp with tails on along with smoked Gouda grits and a butter sauce with bacon crumbles. This meal was delicious. After relieving the shrimp of their tails the smoked grits, bacon, butter sauce all came together with that runny egg yolk to make a very satisfying meal. I wouldn't hesitate to order this again. The staff told me the brisket stuffed sweet baked potato is also excellent. Maybe I'll try that next time....tough decision. read more

Came to Dish Society (West U) for brunch. The scenery was lovely and very eco friendly. I appreciated the organicness and freshness of the food. I ordered toast, sunny side up eggs, and a fruit bowl. The food was alright however for the price it's on the higher end for traditional breakfast. I would come back again to try the Brisket and Eggs as the reviews have been fabulous for those. Overall, the staff were friendly and it was in a nice location. The food I ordered just didn't meet the mark. read more

I had never been to one of these establishments before. The happy hour menu is amazing and so are the food choices. I opted for the breakfast skillet which was very filling. I got a side of bacon which barely had any flavor. I ordered an espresso martini which was pretty good. The concept was different than any brunch place I've been to. You order , receive a number, and the food is brought out to you. If you need drink refills you must get up and get it yourself. Had I known this i would have gone somewhere else. Part of the charm of eating out , unless you're doing to a fast food joint, is to be served. It was an experience but I don't see my self returning unless it's for happy hour and I sit at the bar read more
