    Birthday muffin
    Ivette H.

    My husband and I come here at least twice a week. We love the food and especially the atmosphere here. They treat you like family. Today was my son's birthday and they brought him a chocolate muffin and sang Happy Birthday to him!

    That was the best, juiciest, most flavorful, crunchy but soft- fried chicken tenders I've EVER had. I HAVE to come back.

    A great place for lunch with a group of friends! We are part of a group of friends who are mostly…read moreretired and enjoy dining out for lunch as a group once a month. We try to support local Kingwood are restaurants and hadn't been to Union Kitchen in quite a while. We arrived and asked for a table for 6, the dining room was busy so they said it would be a few minutes. Then 3 more of our group we hadn't expected arrived and the hostess quickly let the servers know to make our table larger. We only had to wait 8 or 9 minutes and were seated in the side dining room which was great as it was not crowded so it was easy to talk without a lot of ambient noise from the more crowded main room. I believe one of the assistant managers began taking drink orders as our designated server was finishing up some tables nearby. She had a great sense of humor and quickly went to get our drinks. FYI, they have both an All Day menu and a lunch special one which we hadn't seen before a their website so that is an option and is a bit less expensive with smaller servings than the All Day one. As it was April 15, they had a special small Tax Day menu where everything was prices at $4.15! What a cute idea! We all ordered our lunches and soon we were enjoying what was brought out. I had the special lentil soup and the blackened salmon tacos, my wife had the 1/2 lb classic burger and the house made potato chips. Everything was excellent. Glad we stopped by for our group lunch.

    We just had dinner at the Union Kitchen in Kingwood, Tx. Super conveniently located close to our…read morehotel, the La Quinta. We saw it online and loved the vast menu selection so we thought we'd give it a try. From the exterior, it doesn't look like much almost looks like you could be walking into a craft store or a boot barn cause it's just in a shopping mall strip center. But once you enter inside, the dark wood, the wine bottles, the lighting all creates a very nice ambience of an upscale restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised. We were just grabbing a bite to eat before a movie and this place turned out to be much nicer than me. I previously anticipated. We decided to order off of the Happy Hour menu so that we could try several things. We got the queso dip of course...because, when in Texas...We also got the crabcakes and a cheeseburger with truffle fries. They had some great drink specials, but we got ice tea instead. That was plenty of food for two of us to share. Out of the three items that we ordered off the Happy Hour menu, I would say the cheesburger was the best! The bun was small enough to not be overwhelming and the meat had a very nice barbecue taste. The crabcakes were OK as was the queso. Our waiter gave excellent service! Can't remember his name, but he was tall and I believe had dirty blonde hair. The entire meal was super yummy with excellent service and convenient. Couldn't ask for more. We definitely recommend this place. We wanted to get beignets for dessert, but we were too full to order anything else. Oh and if you go at Happy Hour, even if you're not drinking, everything on the Happy Hour menu is 50% off. Check it out!

Service wise, they do not attend to you with a greeting, took about 10 min just to be greeted. After the long wait, decided it may be quicker to do take out, again very long service and was rudely told to move away from the take out area even though there were others waiting after us. When asked how much longer after waiting 45 min, they said they would check... another 20 min later they came back with the food without giving an update. When got home with the food, the burger was charred so bad, wasn't even eatable. I feel they did this on purpose, no way should someone serve this to anyone. I called the next day to make a complaint, was told the GM would call me, never did so i contacted Buffalo Wild wings corporate and they also notified the GM to call me, and of course he never called. Terrible on all phases, just avoid this place unless you want to wait for no reason in filthy location that is somewhat new.

Unknown to me at the time the restaurant has a roll u The drink was excellent, but the guacamole had too much lime in it for me. The Pico was ok, but if I had to do it over again I would have 2 queso' and 1 pico. Also I added ground beef into the queso. That made the queso so much better! I suggest must warn you they charged me $6.00 for a shot class amount. Not a bargain. Unfortunately, I may sound wishy-washy, but the queso with the beef was pretty darn good. Would I buy it again absolutely NOT! I can get the same at several restaurants for less! I suggest going during Happy Hour to find bargains. I recommend this restaurant. GN3

We shared the boneless buffalo wings to start, and then we ordered two medium ribeyes and a pulled-pork platter. Unfortunately, both steaks came out well-done instead of medium, so we had to send them back. I'm really glad they were willing to redo them, but for a place that specializes in steaks, you'd hope they'd get that part spot-on the first time. Aside from that hiccup, the service was fantastic, they are super friendly and attentive, which made the experience much better. All in all, some great moments, but hoping for a bit more consistency next time, especially with the steaks.
