Fruit Festival Waffle
A.J. C.

Hanz Down one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had. French toast for bread w/ over hard egg, cheese & turkey sausage. A side of syrup & sprinkle of powdered sugar joined the sandwich. It was very delicious & cooked well & nice & hot. The fruit festival waffle was large w/ tons of fruit & whipped cream. My wife inhaled it but left me a few bites since it was so huge. Only 10.50 & sandwich was 8.50. Its seat yourself, the servers were very friendly & food came out very fast. 3 different ladies checked on us while we were there which was only 20 mins. The outside was nothing special & the restroom was a bit rough looking but the food made up for it. Also have a big menu w/ lunch & breakfast both served til they close.

Eggs, grits, hash browns, sausage and bacon

When you walk in you feel like you're at home. The ambiance is homely, quiet and the restaurant was clean and inviting. The service was great. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and told me information about the inception of how Hanz came to be. The food was tasty and felt like my grandmother's breakfast on Saturday mornings. The bacon was cooked just right not to crispy and not rubbery , the sausage patty was cooked all the way through without being cooked too hard, the scrambled eggs were cooked soft like I asked, the grits just like home and the waffle and syrup were the perfect combination. The only thing I would have looked different was the hash browns cooked a little harder. Overall my experience was so good I'll definitely be back probably again and again as long as the quality stays the same.

Banana nut waffle

One of the few places on the north that actually serves "wings" for the chicken n waffles. Not a lavish spot, been here for years but they come through with the flavor, variety and availability. As popular as chicken n waffles have become I'm surprised more places don't offer it. However everything is made fresh (that I've ordered). I like how there are options to customize your waffle. I opted for the banana nut waffle which came with whip cream. They actually cook the waffle with the pecans in it - so delish. Plus you get nice size portions of wings too - I never can finish it all. I have never dined in; I always get my food to go, but it seems popular with the nearby locals. Definitely a go to brunch spot when I get a taste for chicken n waffles WITHOUT the wait or long lines.

Northside's Best Breakfast Secret! Came in Saturday around 12, and food was freshly delivered. Traditional Breakfast is served all day. Thick cut bacon ! Added Nashville Hot Chicken to the menu Menu has a variety of entrees and they did not disappoint. Pros: Chicken wings - fresh and seasoned French Toast- light and powdered Eggs Thick cut Bacon Service from Wendy was great Real Pink Lemonade Clean restrooms Cons: None (Building may look a little rusty, but it's all good)

South of the Border Skillet
Chris C.

Awesome restaurant! Food was excellent we had the shrimp and grits , waffle and the south of the boarder skillet. Food was delivered quickly and piping hot. Very flavorful and we like our food on the spicy side so the waitress brought a very flavorful hot sauce. Service was excellent we visited around 8:30 on a weekday morning. We were seated right away and our waitress brought menus, water and coffee directly. She was very friendly and was very attentive to our needs. The restaurant is located in a working class business district and may have originally been a Denny's or other chain restaurant. Plenty of table and booth seating. Capacity might be 50-60 people. Also has counter seating for singles or couples. Looks like the do a big takeout business. While there probably saw 20-30 meals taken by individuals or delivery drivers.

Don't judge this book by its cover, or you'll miss out on some of the best food and hospitality in North Houston. This place is nothing fancy, but just a simple diner atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The food is awesome, plentiful, and priced right. You're welcomed by the staff as soon as you walk in the door. Come on in, have a seat where you like, and enjoy this food experience and possibly have enough left to take home.

Hot Chicken Fried Chicken Sandwich

The food is always home style and flavorful. I feel like you get a lot more bang for your buck compared to other breakfast diners. The service is always great! Terri is such a sweet lady and your cup will never be empty if she's your waitress. They have plenty of seating and the place is spacious so don't worry about feeling crowded.

We went to this Chili's today and hands down it was the best service we've ever had at any Chili's…read morelocation, anywhere in the country. Elijah was our waiter and he was absolutely phenomenal. He was attentive without being overbearing, incredibly friendly, and always one step ahead. He brought us refills before we even had to ask just by noticing our drinks were getting low, which really shows how much he cares about his tables. What truly stood out was that this wasn't just about one great server. Every single person we interacted with was welcoming and on their game. The host greeted us warmly as soon as we walked in. The staff who brought out our drinks were friendly and attentive. The bus staff worked quickly and efficiently, keeping everything cleared without disrupting our meal. You could clearly see that everyone was working hard, communicating, and functioning as a true team. The restaurant itself was very clean and well maintained, which made the experience even better. It's obvious that this location takes pride not only in their service, but in their space and how they work together. We even overheard other tables saying this was the best Chili's they'd ever been to because of the service and the food, and we couldn't agree more. The food tasted great, but the exceptional service, teamwork, and cleanliness are what truly set this location apart. Huge shoutout to Elijah and the entire team for setting the bar so high. We will absolutely be back.

The worse Chili's I've ever been to. There is never a host/hostess at the front, which creates a…read morelonger wait time for the overall experience. The bartender is not attentive unless you're a regular of hers -_- The manager was terrible at diffusing any situation. They abuse their authority and the sheriff that is on duty inside the Chili's. I waited probably ten minutes before she finally Acknowledged me. I placed an order to-go, and needed a little more time figuring out what I wanted. I finally ordered my food, and continued talking to my boyfriend on FaceTime. When my man arrived, she was a lot more attentive towards him. Immediately asked as he approached the bar if he wanted a drink. When I ordered my drink I told her I was stepping outside to smoke. However, I come back to my to-go order gone, my napkins and silverware taken, and my drink not at my seat. She comes back with a trash ass attitude saying she thought I left. I repeated that, "I would be right back." I asked for my drink and check. She told me, "No but I'll bring your check." Walks to the front of the bar and calls the sheriff over. Next thing I know he is telling me to leave because I'm trespassing. Like WTF?! Never again. I rather spend my money at an establish that sets the tone and ambiance to have a good time.
