Ok, I'm going down to 1 star. This place is baffling…read more They don't have any food. I did an online order today and a huge percentage of the menu was unavailable. This has happened on more than one occasion - when menu items would be unavailable - but never to the extent of today. The staff is no help either. I finally gave up on the app and called. There's a whole story there too but I'm tired of typing. SOOOO I hope someone management or corporate see this. If you don't have any food it pisses people off. I can't believe I keep going back but that tea...

My team decided to come here after an event, and this was my first time trying out this franchise…read more Before someone suggested it, I had never even heard of the place. When we arrived, the staff were very friendly and accommodating, especially considering the large group we brought. They took our orders quickly, the food came out at a nice pace, and the restaurant itself was clean and well-kept. I ordered the French Dip. It was not the worst I have had, but definitely not the best either. The baguette was softer than I expected, and I prefer sturdier bread since the au jus usually makes it soggy. The roast beef was also a little dry, although dipping it in the au jus helped with that. On the side, I chose the potato salad, which was very good. It was seasoned well, the potatoes were cooked perfectly, and it had a refreshing flavor that balanced out the creaminess of the mayo-based sauce and the heaviness of the sandwich. Overall, the experience was pleasant, but the food did not leave a lasting impression. It was good for a casual meal with a group, though I would not go out of my way to come back on my own.

We started with amazing margaritas, followed by a delicious artichoke appetizer. For the main course we had pasta and the Texas redfish, while my daughter enjoyed the fettuccine Alfredo. We finished the night with an incredible bread pudding dessert. Every single recommendation from our server was spot on. The result: spectacular! Everything was delicious and beyond expectations. Ambience was very nice and the restaurant super clean!!! Compliments to the chef and the entire team. Don't just read my review--come to Alvin and experience it for yourself.

We don't talk about Alvin, TX enough so let me shed some light on this great place. I've had…read moreGordon Street Tavern on my list for awhile for the simple fact that they sell scotch eggs. You just don't see that often and I wanted to try it. The stars aligned and my family and I met up here for a weeknight dinner. Alvin is the true definition of a small town. It is just south of Pearland and life moves a little slower out here. Atleast for time being as it is becoming more developed now. The building itself is old and full of character. Everyone seemed to know each other. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, but service was a tad bit slow at times. My family isn't a big drinking family so we stuck with water and sodas, but they have quite a nice bar program here. They have a really impressive beer selection, a long list of specialty cocktails and lots of wine to choose from. I'm definitely coming back to check that out without the fam. For appetizers, we got an order of the scotch eggs and the Bavarian pretzel sticks. This was my first introduction to scotch eggs and a wonderful one at that. You really can't go wrong with anything wrapped in sausage and deep friend. It was a nice treat and something I will not be sharing next time. The pretzels were also very good. Our waitress suggested some cheese sauce to accompany those. These sticks of goodness were excellent. For my entree, I was stuck on a few items as their menu is pretty extensive. Our waitress said my option for the Pork Milanesa was the way to go, so I did. I've had milanesa at Mexican restaurants, but never in a tavern nor prepared this way. This was hand battered in panko and then topped with a mushroom gravy. It comes with broccoli and mashed potatoes but I substituted the veggie for mac and cheese. This dish was very good and the portions were very generous. Enough for me to have a full second meal minus the sides. The pork was thinly pounded and kept it's crunch even doused in gravy. The gravy was rich and very delicious. My family got a mix of items like the philly cheese steak, flat iron steak salad, tavern salad, and chicken fried steak. For research purposes and for my loyal readers, I tried everything. There wasn't anything that was bad to me. We were full so desserts didn't happen on this trip. Overall, Gordon Street Tavern is a solid spot that I would happily return to if in the area.

I had another perfect experience at Red Oak Cafe. I'd been raving about it to my cousin and we…read morefinally got a chance to dine here today. Alyssa was our super sweet and attentive server. She was awesome. Everyone loved their food. I had the Big Breakfast again and had the same banana pecan pancakes I ordered during my last visit but this time I got jalapeno bacon as my protein and hashbrowns instead of grits. The bacon was SO GOOD and was full of jalapeno flavor but minus the spice. I could've eaten a couple more slices of that goodness. It was crispy, a tad bit burnt but again it was so good. The hashbrowns were perfectly crispy. I also made sure to get plenty of strawberry butter this time and I slathered it all over my pancake and biscuit. The kiddos had child's plates that included two mini pancakes, eggs and a choice of protein. My cousin had a hash that looked incredible and she said it was very tasty. I'll have to try it out one day if I can ever break myself away from the pancakes. Just like last time the amibiance was warm, cozy, family friendly and Christian themed. This just might be my fave breakfast spot. I absolutely love it.

I was pleasantly surprised by the restaurant inside the Alvin Antique center, but let me preface…read morewith the fact that maybe 15 of us (4 different tables) happened to get there at the same time, and they were understaffed, so it took them a while to make our food, which was only a challenge because we had a young kid. I'd consider ordering food, walking around, then eating, might be a more streamlined experience for those of you that have to keep kids entertained! I ordered the Turkey panini, which was delicious, I loved the amount of pesto, not too much cheese, bread was nice and fluffy, it was really quite a fantastic offering! I saw they have some gluten free options, cookies, bunch of sandwiches (wish I took a photo of the menu) and the staff was grateful for customers and friendly to our questions. I didn't take a photo but they had a bunch of flavored iced teas, I think I had a peach one, it was delicious!

Mr Freak (owner and a very friendly guy) and I hate that I don't have great, positive things to say about his meat but, I'm always honest with reviews (as I see it, eat it) He let me taste the boudin he had just prepared; umm no brother that's NOT boudin the way French people make it. It was a bit spicy but, it was just mushy w/a chunk of smoked meat (I think) was chicken but, I didn't ask. I tasted sliced smoked peppered turkey which was great. I tasted jalapeno cheese sausage - greasy-overcooked. I was embarrassed but buy anything because Mr Freak and his female employee were so nice, so I randomly picked 1 smoked boneless chicken breasts to go. $15 (huge) When I got home I broke it down to package for lunch and lawd it was dry as bone. What's the deal man; are you overcooking it OR has it been sitting under a lamp all day(s)? Mr Greak is from Rosharon TX and being a country guy he should know how to smoke meats by default, no? I should have bought the smoked turkey because the 3 other meats were a thumbs down. I can see why the freezers are full

(see menu photo for ingredients) Mine was delicious and $16 but, it had 2 big chocolate chip cookies on top, buttercream rim, crumbled cc cookie, chocolate+ caramel syrup on top. Sugar HIGH! My friend had a strawberry shake (hey Mikey's ice cream) and she didn't like the flavor and there were no real strawberries in it for $10. She's a DQ kinda girl, so don't take her opinion to heart. I finished her shake (oink) and it was yummy! (.50 cents of every shake sold goes to Kidz Harbor) Real nice staff. Bible verses everywhere. The owners are Adrian Hembree and VJ Nandlal who were on the wrong road back in the day and didn't have God in their lives; once blind now they see! They buy their meat from local ranchers and ice cream from a local ice cream shop. (these people are in photos on their walls) The restaurant is huge and has a nice outdoor space, as well as, a cozier inside space. I like their story. I like the staff.
