    Fried chicken eggs Benedict. Banana nut cookie butter waffle. Sausage gravy and biscuits breakfast
    Libby H.

    Wowow! This place is absolutely delicious. I'm usually pretty underwhelmed with breakfast/brunch places but this place did not disappoint. The waitlist can be long but it is worth it! Just be sure to check the wait time and sign yourself up for the waitlist if you aren't there yet. Just sort of get a gauge of when you could be and put yourself on the list depending on the waitlist time. Once we ordered we got the food very quickly. I loved my fried chicken eggs Benedict. Such a yummy hollandaise sauce and very crispy chicken. My husband enjoyed his sausage gravy and biscuit breakfast. And we both were obsessed with the banana nut cookie butter waffle. I love how the nuts were candied pecans! The owner is incredibly nice and checked up on every table. Very personable and a great experience here!

    What a stunning restaurant. The greenery throughout the store made everything feel so wholesome and the elegant decor added a touch of sophistication. The exterior is just as beautifully decorated. It's clear that chef-owner Lori Pope poured a lot of time, heart, and soul into both the menu and the store's design. The hostess was super friendly. As soon as I walked in, she gave me a warm and smiling greeting. The menu was a feast for the eyes. It had a lot of lovely pictures of the different dishes. I was ecstatic to see that there were so many vegetarian and vegan friendly options. Also, most of the dishes can be requested to be made gluten-free. Big plus. You don't order at your table, instead you go to the counter in the back and make sure to bring the sheet with your table number on it. The gal at the counter who took our order wasn't as friendly as the hostess but she was polite enough to inform us about the 15% charge. The food came out very quickly. Hopefully it's because they had a ton of people working in the back. Hopefully. I ordered the Magic Mushroom Tacos and thought it was a beautiful plate. My favorite thing about the dish is the tortillas. It had a nice light crisp to it and kept all the fillings intact from start to finish. The "Magic Mushrooms" were good but could have been better if the batter were lighter and crispier. The batter was a little on the heavy and dense side for me. I also think the sauce could be even better if it had a bit less oil and a bit more flavor. I really enjoyed the potato slices and the fresh berries were a great way to cleanse the palate. My lunch date ordered the Biscuit and gravy dish and thought it was good. We also ordered a side of the Belgian waffle to share. I thought the waffle on its own was extremely sweet and way too dense for my liking. I am happy there's a locally owned and created brunch place like Harvest Kitchen and will definitely be back to try other dishes. Note: There's an automatic 15% service charge to every order.

    This place is a hidden gem for some nice brunch!!! The place is so cute, and the service is really good. The owner came up to us which was really sweet and nice. The food here is amazing too. I got the eggs Benedict with chicken and waffles - so so good. I went with a large group and everyone loved what they got too. I highly recommend coming here if you're looking for chicken and waffles!!

    Harvest Kitchen & Bakery is truly a gem and a must-visit. The food is outstanding, and as someone who recently started a keto journey, I was so impressed by the variety of keto-friendly options available. The hot chicken breakfast tacos are a must, and their keto desserts are next level, every single one was delicious. The ambiance is just as amazing as the food. From the moment you walk in, it feels like home. The décor is beautiful, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. One of my favorite touches was how they personalize each table by placing your name on it when you're seated which instantly makes the experience feel special and welcoming. The owner and chef, Lori, is an absolute joy. She personally goes around greeting each table and truly connects with her guests. When I mentioned my keto lifestyle, she took the time to share helpful advice on how to maintain it, which meant so much to me. Her warmth and passion shine through, and it's easy to see why Harvest has such an incredible reputation and has been loved by the community for so many years. I will definitely be back!

    I've always ordered delivery from this place and regret waiting so freaking long to dine in. The food is even more amazing in person and the whole place is so cute. It gives off a mom and pop Cracker Barrel vibe and is very inviting the moment you walk in. With a one hour wait, it was still worth it and of course, I tried it on Father's Day so I'm sure that played into the wait time. The table gets ready with your name on a hand written plaque, which is even rare for fine dining, let alone a cozier place like this one. 10/10 would recommend anyone to come and trust me, though the delivery is great, at the location, everything is better'

    Service was good and efficient We sat outside, was relaxing Food was very good. Burger 10/10 I got the hollandaise sauce on the side, wasn't a fan. chilaquiles 8/10 No spice Friend mushrooms 10/10 Waffle 2/10 I didn't like it at all. Just wasn't my taste for a waffle

    This is a family owned spot that has delicious food and amazing service. The chef and owner even makes it a point to stop by your table to make sure your experience is excellent. Everything that we ordered was so delicious that I definitely will be returning. I ordered the Mango Tango Chicken Tostada and Chai Tea Latte. Both 5/5! The ambience is pretty chill, but you can also bring a family or a group. They just don't have very large tables.

    Magic Mushroom Benedict
    Auston P.

    Still the best brunch in greater Houston? Hands down YES! !!COME SEE THE CHRISTMAS DECOR!! I would go as far as to say the best brunch spot I've ever eaten!! Chef Lori just keeps outdoing herself. The presentations, the flavor profiles. It's absolutely wild. Check out the pictures, pick anything on the menu. Literally anything.

    Hot chicken & waffle topped with a poached egg and sides of potatoes & fruit. The bacon was additional

    Great brunch with friends! We enjoyed the avocado toast, Benedict, hot chicken & waffle, and a flight of French toast! Such a cute fun place!

    Biscuits and gravy and poached eggs with bacon

    I've eaten here twice. I really do like the food. It's really good. The chef comes around and checks on you and make sure everything's good to go. Anna that carrot cake is so good and I definitely loved their quiche and that salad was so yummy and anything that makes poached eggs so good the only thing I don't like is that they have them automatic gratuity but that's it. Everything else here is really great. Highly recommend.

    Double chicken and waffles
    Kevin C.

    We have been meaning to try this brunch spot near us ever since moving to Katy! The first time we went it was over an hour wait on a Sunday afternoon. We decided to try again early Saturday morning. Ended up still being a 50-55 min wait on 10am Saturday. I'm glad we waited though bc easily worth it! You enter the waitlist via a QR code on a sign outside the restaurant and then wait in your car where they'll text you whenever your table is ready. You wait in a line to order at the register and then sit at your assigned table where they bring you your food. Inside ambiance was spectacular, attention to detail and very Fall oriented which we loved. Very homey and mom/pop shop feel. Service was great and super prompt. Food was ran out immediately when ready and very fresh/hot. We got the pumpkin spiced latte and salted caramel latte which came out very quickly. The flavors were a bit muted and not overly sweet. Probably the weakest part of the meal. We got the double chicken and waffles and the monte Cristo, as well as a French toast trio to share. Chicken waffle-5/5. Amazing crunchy batter with like a Nashville hot syrup. We ordered the level 3 moderate spicy. The waffles were almost like candied and crispy. The chicken tenders were huge! Easily could have been satisfied with the one tender serving. Monte Cristo-5/5. The best Monte cristo I've had in years! Batter was crispy and doughy like a donut. And served with a raspberry marmalade. And 2 eggs cooked your way. French toast trio (banana nut cookie butter, lemon berry, and cinnamon)-5/5. The French toast were small so it is a very shareable plate. Served with cinnamon sugar and syrup. Made from a sourdough bread, so a bit thicker than the typical French toast. Amazing brunch and amazing time! We can't wait to come back with our families to try more of this spectacular and extensive menu!

    My First time trying Harvest Kitchen was on my birthday, and it was one of the best experiences I've ever had. The food is top-tier, the service is amazing, and the owner makes herself visible to her guests. The restaurant is clean, decorative, and inviting. #ProTip - If you visit on a Saturday, save yourself some time, and join the waitlist before you arrive

Our server was excellent, very friendly and attentive. Portions are big, even for the kids meals. I ordered the classic French toast and would say to skip that. It was soggy and mostly tasted like plain eggs. The texture and taste just wasn't it. I ended up sharing my husband's pancakes instead and those were really good. I tried the hash browns that came with my husband's meal and the hash browns tasted weird too so I'd also recommend skipping that. The menu is pretty big with lots of options and prices are standard. Overall I'd be open to coming back and trying other dishes next time.

I sat down to a table sticky with syrup. I had to request it be cleaned and then clean my arms and phone. I then ordered the tri tip with a salad, medium rare. When I unwrapped my silverware it was stuck to the napkin as it was also covered in syrup. The meal came (not the salad) and I saw my dried out, well done slices of beef. Once my salad finally arrived, I sent the meal back requesting it be cooked as ordered. The manager came by (super nice woman) and apologized. The waitress then came back (also a total sweetheart) and apologized, stating the meal would be comped. I explained that wasn't necessary but she insisted. Then the new meal came. It certainly wasn't overcooked this time. In fact, it wasn't cooked. It was lightly seared on the outside but raw and cold inside. Thanks for the offer of a free raw meal, but I chose to leave and go somewhere else.

Tables are well spaced plenty of room eight crisp environment really just a very comfortable ambience. The services superlative from the moment you walk in in which you are immediately accommodated to the server who takes an order and then the servers who serve the food which is not necessarily one in the same. It's simply a very efficient service system and very pleasant if you're a customer. You get warm food. In my case I had hollandaise with Salman underlying it, which was very good. The eggs were cooked perfectly the hollandaise not by any means obnoxious but a very deliberate Irving and a wonderful salad, which both underlines the egg and is served as a side with the eggs, which were perfectly poached. In so far as the buzz is concerned, there are wines and beer available and really quite an extensive menu in both. I enjoyed a beer with mine, which I know it sounds like an odd combination, but it worked quite well for me. Really this is a wonderful addition to Katy options for breakfast or brunch.

    I have lived near this establishment for almost 2 years now and have never tried it. So today we…read moredecided to give it a try and it was worth it 100%. They serve brunch on Saturday and Sunday until 330. The brunch menu is huge. It is not a super large menu, which I feel very endearing. We decided to try the bagel and lox with cream cheese, the Buzz burger with fries, and their homemade chips. They start off by bringing you this beautiful craft of bottled water. That to me was an amazing bonus. We also ordered two sodas which came in a can. I sort of wish it was a more of a fountain drink than one can of soda for the price. *Now service was super slow. However, the waitress did come and tell us that they are running a little behind and she apologized for it and she was super sweet, so that made up for the weight. How do I known how long it was going to take, I don't know if I would've stayed, but in the end, the food was amazing. The burger was cooked to perfection. My boyfriend is a hamburger snob and he kept saying how good it was how fresh it was and how perfectly cooked it was. They serve you shoestring fries that feel like they're double fried and they were phenomenal. My bagel was toasted perfectly and had a very good amount of cream cheese and lox. As a Jewish girl living in the area that I do, it's very hard to find good bagels with lox and cream cheese. I will most definitely be back for this sooner than later. The homemade chips took quite a while to come out, and at one point I was ready to say we don't need it, but these potato chips beat Buccees beaver chips, 100%. They were super fresh and very crunchy and tasted amazing. I will definitely recommend those to anybody that orders some. My boyfriend then ordered a tropical sunrise smoothie and it was so tasty and tasted like a strawberry banana smoothie. Now once again that did take a long time to come out and at one point, we were wishing we had not ordered it but once we did get it, it was really good and I highly recommend it. The restaurant is not very large and it's the perfect brunch spot for anybody looking for a smaller Cafe with very good choices.
