    Waffle and Spicy Fried Chicken
    Erica F.

    I love the ambience. The food was amazing, and our waiter was very helpful. We will be back.

    I was invited by a friend to try Harry's Restaurant for breakfast so we could catch up on life, and this was my first time visiting. Overall, it was a really nice experience. I ordered the build your own omelette with tomatoes, cheese, peppers, grilled chicken, and spinach. It came out hot, well seasoned, and cooked just right. It was very satisfying, especially the grilled chicken which was very tender and juicy. On the side, I had a biscuit and cheesy grits. The biscuit was soft and absolutely moist, and the grits were creamy with a good amount of cheese. My friend ordered the spicy fried chicken plate with a biscuit and also tried the sausage gravy bowl. I had a taste, and everything was flavorful but the chicken really wasn't that spicy at all. You can taste the spice, but it really didn't give a kick. The orange juice was absolutely fresh, which I really appreciated, it definitely stood out. Add ice thank me later that's just me. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the raspberry jelly, but that's just personal preference since I'm more of a grape jelly person. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the ambiance stood out immediately. They have a beautiful patio if you're into outdoor vibes, definitely a great spot for conversations , relax, and enjoy a slow morning with good company. Overall, I'd definitely come back. For a first timer, this is a great spot for a laid back meal with good food and even better vibes.

    I loved everything about this place except the wait you can't make reservations in advance! Our wait was almost an hour but well worth it!! Once seated, it didn't take for our waiter to come over and take our drink order. That frozen passion was delicious and just enough to start the day! After, we ordered our breakfast. That pancake omelet was chefs kissssss it was STUFFED!! The service was great, very attentive waiter! The restaurant was very clean as well! 1000/10

    We made online reservations before going there and it was more than an hour before we got our table. The place was packed and had lines waiting outside the restaurant. It's a beautifully decorated place with bright colors that make you feel good. We ordered their Larissa plate, eggs Benedict, regular French toast, baklava French toast and some drinks. Everything tasted great but the best was their Baklava French Toast! What a great twist to the regular French toast. The server was good and very knowledgeable about the menu. When we complimented him about it, he said they have to go through a test to prepare themselves, which we've not heard of before. The owner of the restaurant was a really nice old man who was walking around the place, greeting all his customers and having a smile throughout. I would definitely be back here again!

    If you have a group, get on the wait list before you arrive and ensure your party is complete once you check in. If two or more at the table drink mimosas, I recommend ordering the full carafe. You cannot go wrong with any of the food options and if you want to try different options, the portions are huge so sharing is caring. Harry's Restaurant is know for their bread which is thick and fluffy. Personally, I think the best way to eat the bread is have them slice it in half and toasted. As for the Spicy, Honey glazed chicken, go for an extra bit of crispiness, it will not disappoint. It gets a bit chilly on the inside so bring a light jacket or sweater just in case.

    My waffles and spicy chicken were delicious. The chicken sausage and pancakes were good as well. The wait time was only 10 minutes and a great option to other restaurants in the same area. Service was quick and efficient. The tables are nicely spaced but was so hard to have a conversation. Adequate free parking adjacent to the restaurant.

    Baklava French toast
    Alan S.

    I've been here twice. The first time was a while back where I had the chicken and waffles. It was solid but a little pricey at $18. This time I came back with a group of people and had the baklava french toast, $15. Also tasty, but just didn't live up to my expectations. Overall the service is good, the food is solid, but the prices are a little high for my tastes. Props for keeping my water glass refilled, and all the other people I was with seem pretty happy with their food and service. Depending when you come, this place can get pretty crowded. I recommend weekday mornings if you don't want to have to wait. Harry's is also a great place if you want to run into someone In the world of Houston politics at breakfast.

    Chicken and Waffles
    Wendy H.

    Stopped by Harry's with a group of friends, and we made sure to join the waitlist before arriving, so we didn't have to wait long to be seated. I ordered the Chicken & Waffles, and they were very good -- the chicken was well-seasoned and cooked perfectly, and the waffle was nice and fluffy. I also tried my friend's chilaquiles divorciados, and those were delicious too. The sauce had amazing flavor. Overall, I can definitely see why this place has such long wait times -- it's absolutely worth the hype.

    don't let harry's fool you! it's always busy.. but why?!? after seeing the parking lot constantly packed and it always looking busy, i finally decided to see what the "hype" was all about. and it was definitely just hype. the server was really really nice and that is the only reason i gave 2 stars-- i wish i could remember her name! the hostess, an older woman.. was more of a warden and less of a hostess. she was not friendly at all. as she walked back and forth in the dining room, i did not see her smile once (not that i needed to see everyone bearing teeth in joy...but lighten up!). i also felt like she was overseeing what drinks were brought to our table... i only ordered two espresso martinis, and there was still a third of my first one in my glass when the hostess ran over to my table to remove my first glass because a second glass was dropped off.. and why would a hostess be overseeing what is going on at the tables? that is well beyond the scope of a hostess. i assume this "protocol comes" from ppl i guess taking dipping containers or something.. there are signs on the door spotlighting that behavior as "stealing". in addition to a warden-esque hostess, the food was boring AF. the flavors were flat and if a restaurant can't get a hollandaise sauce correct.. why would one ever return?! now, please take this review with a grain of salt. this may have been a horrible day for harry's, and they very well maybe, the best place in midtown for brunch... but i will not be returning. dining out is far too expensive to patronize businesses that do not make me feel accommodated or welcome. if you decide to visit harry's, i hope that you have a more pleasant and welcoming experience! bonne appétit

    Spicy Fried Chicken

    Enjoyed brunch with the girls! Service waa quick but you do have to wait for your entrie party just fyi. We had margaritas and mimosas. For entrees I got the spicy fried chicken with a biscuit and hash browns. The waiter suggested I got my biscuit grilled and it was PERFECT. Others at the table were the perfect combo with French toast and home fries and the spicy fried chicken and kale. Everyone enjoyed their food. Our waiter was the best! We will all be back again to try some more highly recommended dishes.

    The food was pretty good. The service was slooooowww. Def recommend the French 75. I had the migas and they were good, but I forgot they don't have meat.

    Mid. I live in Mexico and honestly food is better over there, fresher ingredients, vibes etc. Sysco + US foods provides lowest grade food for every single restaurant in America, and guess what? It all tastes bad. Maybe my standards are raised because Mexico buys from local farms (what the norm should be), but here ? I expected to get cherry tomato's for my eggs... bro. It was pico chopped tomato's... literally so gross. Then they accidentally put another customers plate in front of me and I almost walked out cuz I thought it was mine...it looked so disgusting. Skirt steak? DONT GET IT. Belongs on boots in Cavenders. The server was nice but not too fast with service. Anyways, do what you will but America and corporations need to do better.

    Creative end to the dining experience.

    Harry didn't meet Sally, it met Cabo. We had a wonderful experience at Harry's. The ambiance, lighting, decor, textures, and bar area were all exceptionally well done. For our meal, we had the American Filet, crab cakes, filet tacos, and seasonal vegetables. The bread with rosemary to start was heavenly, and the dipping sauce for the steak was light and delicious on our veggies. For dessert, we considered the chocolate lava, carrot cake, Harry's cake, and homemade ice cream, which all looked decadent. We were then pleasantly surprised with well-presented cotton candy at the end of the meal. Luis and Danny were the dynamic duo team. Their service was 5 star! I have been coming to Cabo for over 30 years. It is a delight to see so many new places popping up. I do miss much of old Cabo but there is no going back so trying fun, new places brings a since of freshness to a very familiar place.

    What time does the crowd usually start coming on a Sunday?

    I would recommend being there by 9:00am. After that you will probably have to wait for a table.

    Any idea of when Harry's will reopen post-Beryl?

    CenterPoint has the answer

    Do they allow dogs on the patio?

    Yes! Our patio is dog friendly.

    Is breakfast served all day?

    Yes! Till closing time which I believe is 3 or 4 :)

    Is it closed? I went today and there was construction going on but it says it's open.

    It reopens tomorrow, October 2nd. Can't Wait. Will be there.

All dinners come with a Greek garlic bread starter. I love their iced tea- fresh brewed and always good! The wine is Greek and seems a small bit pricey, but for the extra dollar or two it's worth it- Very delicious. Anything you get at Athena's is amazing so feel free to branch out on your choice. And the desserts are large and homemade! It's hard to save room though. You'll love the fish, steaks, and kebabs. They do a nice lunch sandwich- and still comes with the bread and a Greek salad. If you come on a weekend evening, you may run into the owner having the time of her life! And they take pride in serving the most sweet and ripe slice of melon with every dish. Started to enjoy this first each time I come. It is that delicious, but why can't I find fruit like that anywhere at a grocery store? Give this place a try. Yummy. Officially the authentic Greek restaurant without going overboard. Wait- the homemade 3 layer chocolate cake and the lemon cake! Actually bought a whole one for a large birthday party and everyone wanted to know the bakery name- just Athena's homemade cake! Remember, Greek food is fresh with best ingredients. Service is above that notch and family atmosphere with Greek music- always. But I do find I'm stopping in there solo all the time; others too!

Established back in 1977, this Greek café has grown from a humble walk‑up window into a full‑fledged neighborhood institution, beloved for its hearty Mediterranean comfort food and lively, come‑as‑you‑are atmosphere. The Montrose location stays bustling from lunch through late night, drawing in everyone from families to night‑owls to longtime regulars who've been coming here for decades. What keeps people returning is simple: the food hits. Diners consistently praise the authentic Greek flavors, especially the gyro plates -- a blend of beef and lamb shaved from the spit, tucked into warm, fresh pita, and finished with cool, garlicky tzatziki. Portions are generous without being sloppy, and the pricing stays reasonable, making it one of the best value spots in the neighborhood. Your gyro arrives stacked, your fries come hot, and your plate feels like it was built by someone who actually wants you to leave full. The menu is huge, but the classics shine brightest. The Greek salad is crisp and refreshing, loaded with feta, olives, tomatoes, and their famous dressing. Service here is fast, friendly, and efficient -- the kind of counter‑style operation where the staff keeps things moving without losing the warmth that makes the place feel welcoming. Guests frequently mention how upbeat and helpful the team is, even during rush hours. The vibe is lively but never chaotic: families grabbing dinner, couples sharing mezze plates, and regulars chatting with staff like old friends. It's casual, energetic, and unmistakably Montrose. One thing that sets Niko Niko's apart is its deep Houston history. The Fetokakis family has run the restaurant for nearly half a century, maintaining a strong work ethic and a commitment to quality that helped the café earn multiple Houston Press awards over the years -- from Best Pork Chops to Best Family‑Owned Restaurant. Even as the city has changed around it, Niko Niko's has stayed true to its roots: hearty food, Greek hospitality, and a community‑driven spirit. Whether you're grabbing a quick gyro, sitting down for a full spread, or stopping by for dessert after a night out, Niko Niko's delivers exactly what a neighborhood staple should: great food, great value, and a welcoming atmosphere. The flavors are bold, the portions are generous, and the experience feels like Houston -- diverse, warm, and full of character. If you're in Montrose and craving Greek comfort done right, this spot remains one of the city's most reliable pleasures.

While the wine selection and date friendly vibes were good selling points, the subpar service, high prices, and average food made for a less than stellar experience. These factors likely contributed to their recent closure, which is unfortunate. The interior was modern and intimate. High ceilings and large mirrors made the place feel more spacious than it was. It was a nice vibe that made the place visually appealing and date friendly. The brick walls, nice decor pieces, and ultra clean bathrooms were a big thumbs up. But vibes can't save poorly executed food. The octopus was dry and overcooked, the potato croquettes were a bit disappointing, as was, the trio of of dips. The souvlaki was supposed to be their most popular dish, but after trying their ribeye, pork, and chicken, it was simply too bland and not up to par. The gyro platters did not fare much better and the lamb chops were under seasoned. The lemon potatoes needed way more lemon but the only dish that was acceptable was the spanakopita (aka spinach pie). It was all overpriced, especially given the modest portions. Service was often aloof or nowhere to be found. When the nice woman butchered souvlaki and spanakopita, my gut was already in cringe. At least there was discount for cash. While I am saddened by their departure, I take comfort in knowing there are better options available in the city.
