    I was hoping for half a sandwich and soup. But it's specified times which I fill is not customer friendly. I ended up ordering the bowl of matzo ball soup. I was disappointed! Way too salty and not enough broth for the abundance of noodles - plus the matzo balls were heavy instead of light as I'm used too. Not sure I'll comeback when I visit Houston again.

    Stopped in on the way to work last minute to grab a quick bite. Presently surprised by the vast selection of items. We were quickly served drinks and I decided to order the Texas Brisket Benedict and a fruit plate. In no time out food was served. Food was fantastic and we even got a visit from the general manager to ensure we were satisfied with the service and the quality of food. Fantastic place that will definitely be visited again. Give it a shot!

    3.5 The food was good, I had a sandwich with a side of fries, everyone else got breakfast but they had the avocado toast which was good, salmon with eggs and a scramble. The food is a bit on the higher end but it's good. The waitress was sweet. The only reason I didn't put 4 stars was because the wait was extremely long. There was literally one other table there and after ordering, the food took about 20 minutes to come out. I guess that could be a sign that it was fresh but at the same time, the waitress didn't come around to check on us much during that time. It was an awkward wait. The inside decor was cute and had a nice diner feel. Regardless, I'd probably come back, good variety of stuff to try.

    We followed in a family leaving the restaurant and the hostess turned her back on us and shut the door, then went to their table at the front and started cleaning it as we waited at the hostess station. A server and manager came over saying she'd be with us soon. NP- a little odd, as it was pretty obvious she'd seen us but nbd, we'd really wanted to try this place after living here so long. She didn't get any friendlier. Server came out right away, we ordered our drinks and food quick since we hadn't eaten yet for the day and it was past noon. I e got our app, then the main course before he returned and we needed refills and a change of drinks. Bottom line- food was good, service terrible. The manager came over in between while we needed drinks thinking we'd say everything was great but we mentioned we needed drinks with our meal. Great interior!

    GREAT Customer Service is the way to my heart :-) They have customer service down packed! We were cheerfully greeted by the manager and several staff members upon entry. Our waiter quickly approached our table and took our drink order. James was attentive and prompt throughout the entire time we were there. Several other staff members checked on us as well! Thanks for caring! It does not go unnoticed! I've been here several times as you can see lol. However my meal today hit the spot!! Scrambled eggs with Lox & Onions, I added capers, tomatoes and cream cheese. DELISH!!! The potato pancakes were crispy on the outside but moist on the inside, which made for the perfect bite!! Restaurant was clean including the bathroom. Tables were cleared in a timely manner as well. No complaints! :-)

    Came in for a pastrami sandwich take out. Food is good. But billing practices are just crapola. Which is why I'm only giving it 2 stars. They surcharge credit cards on take out as well as dine in. So I decided to pay in cash this time. Apparently there's an automatic gratuity on all "to go" orders. Fine but I wish they'd be more transparent about it because when I ordered there weren't any menus at the to go kiosk which is where I suspect they add the small print. And there are no signs about the automatic gratuity either at the to-go kiosk. To add to the lack of transparency, when I asked about the total amount that they said I would owe for the sandwich, I asked what that total includes, like does it include the credit card charge for example. They said it's only for the sandwich and tax. They didn't mention the automatic take out gratuity which was also on the bill I received, but only after I paid it. It's the same deal when you pay at the table. I asked what the subtotal was and they didn't show me. Asked again, didn't show me. So it was hard for me to determine if their calculation of the tip includes tip on the tax. The other thing is that they don't give any change in coins when paying by cash. Is that even legal? No discussion had. They just either assume you don't want it or just don't give it. So I guess that's like an additional mandatory tip on top of the other mandatory tip. They were actually struggling to scrounge up enough bills to give me back as change as it stood. So apparently coins were just out of the question. I'm guessing most people don't pay in cash but instead just bite the bullet and pay their pass through credit card surcharge. Frustrating for the rest of us trying to pinch pennies. It took 25 minutes to get our sandwich. It was just pastrami meat on untoasted rye. No condiments or anything. About as simple as could be. Yet 25 minutes. I get they're busy but still. I used to frequent Katz's every Saturday. But I just can't see myself coming back again. Lots of deli places in town that don't do this kind of stuff.

    We got in late to the woodlands area and all the restaurants except this one were closed. The service was very friendly as we placed a to go order so we could just eat quickly in our hotel and go to bed. The food came out quickly and the order was correct. I really did not find my food to be very good at all. I ordered jalapeño poppers and potato skins. Neither one tasted freshly made in any way. Almost seemed as if they were made in the morning for the day and then warmed up in a microwave when I ordered late at night. Very disappointed in my food!

    Bowl Matzo Ball soup

    Its been a while that we haven't been on this location, the food is still good especially the matzo ball soup and Reuben sandwich. The people are still friendly. The only complaint i gave is our server is always missing. I saw a few people standing around and just talking. The food is still good thats why i still recommending it.

    I've been eating here for about 14 years and over the years this place keeps getting better. Their tasty food and friendly service is consistent. I've never had a problem with anything I've ever ordered. I really enjoy the fact that they're open 24/7. When hungry after midnight, it's reliable for what ever is desired.

    Chilaquiles

    Holy Mary!!! Before this trip to Katz's, I didn't know you could pair Holy with a Bloody Mary...but here you can!!! Service & Food are both excellent. This is my second time here. Chilaquiles - YES - add beef fajita This time with my hubs I got the chilaquiles-add beef fajita!!! I did my eggs poached. Perfect!!! Avocado toast - Yes - spicy if you can handle it. Fresh sliced jalapeño on top. Better yet, get both and mix them together. Perfect combo to share. Large portions. The fresh fruit with light yogurt sauce and nut crumbles was also very nice. Phil was our server. Detail oriented and friendly. He was on it. Both managers checked on us. Drew and other lady were very pleasant and professional. Side note - OPEN 24 HOURS!!! I discovered this place when my mom had emergency surgery at a near by hospital. I was starving in the middle of the night. The food was spectacular with a meat stuffed cabbage and some kind of meatball soup. Both were so darn good!! So much flavor!!!

    I ordered this to our hotel: The driver had to wait for my order a long time. The food quality? My Chicken and Waffles were mid (soggy waffle) and the Chilaquiles? They didn't have the crème pictured and they didn't have the salsa and the chilaquiles were $18! Btw it was just chips, no refried beans: In this economy?? Uber Eats refunded $2 for the missing sauces. I deleted my Uber account.

    Succotash Veggies

    Ambiance: Upscale diner that's open 24/7 and perfect for curbing literally any craving at any time of the day! What I like about Katz's is that they've put a "fancy" twist on a classic diner. It's a nice ambiance & in my experience always quite clean. The menu is large & expansive - with options for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or desserts/snacks. My husband works a later evening shift so I love that Katz's is an option for a late night date night! It's also the perfect post-evening spot for a quick bite or curing a hangover. Great breakfast spot for families, fun place for hanging with friends, and also ideal for dining alone. Parking onsite. Lots of seating options. Busier at certain times of the day. A bit pricey for diner food but I feel that the quality and ambiance is worth it! Highly recommend the succotash veggies!

    Can I get delivered?

    Uber eats delivers for them.

    Is it zabiha/halal?

    I'm pretty sure it's not halal meats, it has more chance of being kosher than halal.

    Run, don't walk to this deli shop. The sandwiches are so packed with flavor and filling. True care…read moreput into each product that they make. I was recommended the turkey melt from an employee and let me tell you, it's amazing. I've also sampled the meatball and the chicken parmigiana sandwich. All excellent choices! It's counter service, and always quick when I go. Lines can get long at peak hours. Not a ton of tables so you may wait a minute or two for a table to open up. Super casual. Super food. Solid price. What more can you ask for?

    I totally get the hype about this place! If I lived nearby, you can bet I'd work my way through…read moretheir whole menu. There's just something different about this style of sandwich. I've had sandwiches in NYC and Boston, but Tony's were definitely better! The menu is overwhelming because so much sounds good, so we went with two 7 inch sandwiches to split--one hot and one cold. Although a helpful tip from the cashier is that you can order any cold sandwich hot. We had the Lucky Luciano (hot) and the Sophia (cold). Both were really good--it was hard to choose between the two. But if I'm being honest, that cold sandwich was reminiscent of subs I loved in the early 2000s from places that no longer exist...with that super thinly sliced turkey, thick slice of Swiss cheese, and basil mayo--it really hit the spot. We also had a cannolo--not as good as others I've had. The bottled root beer was delightful. The Lucky Luciano was the kind of sandwich I came here for, and don't get me wrong, it is deliciously cheesy and will make your hands messy. But the Sophia is the kind of sandwich I'll be craving. My only regret was not taking a sandwich to-go for later. Open a location closer to Houston, please. :)
