The first time we ate from this location the food was super salty. This time the salt level was…read morebetter. It still was borderline of being too much salt in the oxtail dish but it was tolerable. I ordered the chicken and waffles dish. It came with eggs (I added cheese) and grits. The chicken was seasoned and cooked well. I liked the flavor of the wings but was unhappy about having hairs to still pluck out of the wings. The waffle was an average waffle. The heat being trapped inside the to-go container made the powdered sugar turn into hard crystals. I wish they would have put the sugar in the side. Not too bad for a late night food craving.

Yelp only lists their Blodgett location, but they've opened a new one in Humble, FM1960 at…read moreTownsen...that's where we went. I'm going to give you an honest, no BS opinion here, based upon my reflections and observations. The restaurant occupies a large space, that at one time housed a piano bar; they've kept the performance stage, in the back of the dining space. I'm not sure if they use it or not. They serve cafeteria style, so you can save a bit on tips. I initially thought that the prices were a little stiff, at least for daily dining. At $18 a meal, its not in my affordable daily dining range, which typically tops at about $10. That is, until you see the serving size. My gods, it was enormous! My wife and I had plenty for the two of us, and took home enough for a third meal! Given that, it came down to about $6 a meal, which is a steal! So I want to commend them for great value! The food was displayed behind glass (thank you) on a steam table. Most of it looked really good. We were there around 6:30pm on a Saturday, and the meatloaf looked a bit dried out. The ribs looked kinda sparse--they were obviously what were left. We ordered the delicious-looking smothered pork chops, yams, mashed potatoes, and mac'n cheese. These turned out to be tremendously yummy, and they came with a couple pieces of cornbread, to boot. TIISF thoughtfully places to-go containers and bags in the dining area, making it unnecessary to return to the serving line to get them. A final note: the young man behind the counter serving up the food was very pleasant and personable, and even threw in an extra pork chop (I hope that does not get him into trouble...it truly served to cement a good impression I had of the place.) Food: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Ambiance: 3 stars I recommend all of my Humble, Kingwood, Spring, and Atascocita neighbors give this place a try...you will not be sorry.

Tried it out as a potential place to cater for a party. First discussing with the catering team was…read morevery short. They just provided a total cost without any breakdown of how much each item costs or how much would be provided. To trying it out: it seems they don't have their full menu everyday which is fine but might have changed my mind if they had all the items I would have ordered catering to try. I got the fried chicken, green beans, cabbage, and they're apparently award winning mac and cheese. The only thing I would eat again was the chicken which even then seemed unevenly seasoned between pieces. The cabbage was overwhelmingly garlicky whereas the green beans had no flavor. The Mac and cheese was soupy and seemed like I was jipped of the portion. Overall will not be back or catering

The restaurant itself was also very clean and well kept. However, the staff could definitely improve on friendliness. There was no welcome, no smiles, and the cashier looked upset the entire time. At one point an employee came up to her and they were both snapping at each other, which is not the best first impression for new customers. You guys are first point of contact when we come in, please improve this. Also... the tea?! Guys, this was some of the BEST tea ever! So how do you run out of tea?! I do want to give special recognition to the bus lady. She was extremely attentive, constantly on her feet making sure everyone was taken care of. She kept our waters filled, checked on us often, and overall gave amazing customer service. Even when she had to tell us there was no more tea, she was still so kind and helpful. Honestly, she's the reason we would come back. The front line staff... not so much. 3 stars for the server, line cashier but 5 stars go to Ms Lupe!

We hit the jackpot!…read more I was hungry and looking for tasty food on our way home. I took a chance on The Greasy Spoon and what luck. This place is GREAT. We just went with the food that was ready to go. And even went back for an extra side--Mac n' cheese for my son. Whew! Lots of food, and it's all sooooo good! In addition to the mac n' cheese, we tried the chicken gumbo, chicken with sweet potatoes (they're sweet) and greens (so tasty!), chopped steak with green beans and mashed potatoes. I will most certainly be back!

The fried green tomatoes were a small portion but the way they battered and garnished it elevated the flavor. I really enjoyed the chicken & waffle that came with a sweet potato waffle which I feel like every restaurant needs to include on their menu! It was soft and fluffy and balanced out the savoriness of the chicken. The chicken itself was so juicy and tender, perfectly fried. The croissant French toast was incredible - so buttery and crispy. You can get the wings spicy and that added a great kick to that as well. The service was quick and our server ran down everything on the menu for us to make sure we really got what we wanted and we did. There were other items my girlfriend I were bouncing around because everything sounded so good and we heard from other reviews as well which means we'll be coming back to try even more authentic items. This is a top brunch spot for me, but I'll come back to try the dinner items as well.

Would definitely love to come here again if we visit.

The restaurant had a stale smell, and the oxtails were overpriced. I began to place an order but quickly changed my mind and left because the environment felt unsettling.

Due to concerns about cleanliness and food safety, I would not recommend dining at this restaurant.

A small one crawling on the wall near our table and someone from my party saw a larger one crawling near the kitchen. And boy was it stuffy in there. I asked our waitress if she could move a floor fan near for some relief and to detour the gnats, she said she go ask but she never came back and when she did she completely forgot my request. We weren't seated in the greater eating area where it was cooler and maybe where the gnats were less of a bother. The food was delicious and homemade, you can tell it was made with high quality ingredients and that Southern skill that you can only get from helping Grandma in the kitchen. BUT the roaches made us lose our appetite. Such a shame. It seemed like the building went down. They don't seem to put as much effort into the condition of that place as they do the food. Dusty ceiling fans and crummy floors. I appreciate the homey vibe but it looked really junky, more stuff piled in unoccupied corners as before. I gave a lot of things the side eye, I mean it there has to be maintained asthetic. They charged an 18% gratuity on my tab for a party of 8 but I arrived with 4 people, the other 4 had already been there, paid and was almost done with their meal. Then of course the cashier/waitress still mentioned an additional, optional tip. I didn't think that was fair. At the end of it all she wasn't the best waitress.
