    Truffle Parmesan
    Yolanda S.

    Great burger, great customer service, space was really small but luckily it wasn't crazy busy and we got to enjoy our food. Parmesan truffle fries were so flavorful and freshly crispy 5/5, avocado burger was great too typical avocado burger 3.5/5. Although it was very pricey two burgers, one fries & 1 drink was $40 which is insane since everything came individually it was more pricey.

    I loved this place! The cashier was very nice, attentive, and willing to give suggestions! I was between the avocado and mushroom burgers and ended up choosing the mushroom burger with fries. The fries were hot and crispy - stayed warm for a while which was a pleasant surprise. The burger was so juicy! It was a perfect balance of sweet and salty and I enjoyed it a lot. They even have their own trivia game on the TV that you can join. Perfect place for friends and family. I'll definitely be coming back to try their other burgers!

    Service here is quick and friendly. You order at the counter, get a number, then have a seat at one of the tables. There aren't many tables available, so it's first come first serve. There are nice murals on the walls that go really well with the vibe of the place. We got the sweet home avocado and fire on the mountain. Both were yummy and super filling although I preferred the fire on the mountain more. Their fries are yummy--thin cut and super crispy. The truffle parmesan fries comes with a truffle aioli that (pro tip) pairs well with the burgers as well.

    KTown Burger

    Why 5 stars? Because these burgers tasted just as good as they looked. --- --- --- Okay, that's not fair - I only had one burger. But it was so great that I can only assume that all of them are. I had a tough time choosing which one to order and eventually settled on the KTown. I loved every bite of it and wouldn't change a thing. The photos made these burgers look like they were the side of your head and not easy to actually take a bite out of. But it turns out that they are actually quite manageable. And delicious. Did I mention delicious? I also couldn't resist ordering the honey butter fries, which caused me to ask the very important question: why aren't honey butter fries a thing? These were also excellent and officially put every other fry serving restaurant in America on notice: but honey butter on top of dem thangs if you like money.

    Fire on the mountain

    Delish as always!! I love the mural and the detail! The bun is perfectly crispy and the meat goes all the edge! Everything was so well thought out in regards to each burger. Fire on the mountain goes hard!

    Despite the many excellent nearby options, Kowbell Burger is always a solid choice. The Kowbell cheeseburger is phenomenal and consistently good. It's a solid, hearty burger with great quality, and worth trying. Their fries are also tasty, and the service is friendly. Five stars.

    Fire on the Mountain burger
    Cameron S.

    The food was phenomenal!! My wife and I got two different burgers. One was the K-Town cowboy burger. The taste from kimchi jam was amazing added along with the amazing crunch from the bacon this burger I would definitely recommend. The 2nd burger was the fire on the mountain. The pickled jalapeños gave this burger a great heat and was great to eat. The service provided by the staff was top notch. The atmosphere of the restaurant was chill and made you feel welcome.

    Excellent burgers! A bit pricey but so worth it. It was around $50 for 2 burgers, fries and 2 drinks. The buns were so fresh and the patty was cooked to perfection. I went for their classic burger with kimchi but got that on the side and my husband enjoyed their mushroom burger. Top notch for sure! Will definitely return!

    Food - 8/10 while it was a very good burger, it was the price for the burger that ended up taking 2 points for me. I don't think it was worth almost $13 by itself. It doesn't come with any sides either, those have to purchased separate. The fries were good but could have had more kimchi and more toppings in general but when I asked for more kimchi, they were more than happy to give me some more. Service - 10/10 I needed extra toppings for the fries and they were more than happy to oblidge. Ambiance - 9/10 It's a quirky interior but nothing over the top. I'd come back if they had a combo instead of having to purchase everything ala carte.

    K-Town Cowboy with jalapeños
    Carolyn H.

    I was craving a burger and I am soooo glad I came here!!!! There sweet potato fries with ketchup and there special tiger sauce were so so good!!! Then the burger I got the K-town Cowboy Burger and I added jalapeños was phenomenal!! I got extra Tiger sauce on the side and wow this meal was everything this pregnant mama wanted/needed!! Can't wait to take my husband back and try out more!! The service was great - employees were very attentive and nice! And the atmosphere was nice and clean. I was shocked I was the only one at first but then more people arrived towards the end of my visit. Definitely recommend trying :))

Burger rất ngon, trình bày món ăn chuyên nghiệp. Nhân viên phục vụ chu đáo và nhiệt tình. Sẽ quay lại để thử hết những món khác của quán.

    The burger here is so juicy and flavorful! I had the avocado bacon burger and it was delicious. The fries were different but good. It had honey. They had several different way you can get your fries.

    Kowbell Classic with an egg.
    Adam S.

    I think this is my new favorite burger spot in Katy. Kimchi on a burger? I shout out YES! I sent my daughter to pickup a couple of burgers and some krazy fries. We ordered the honey butter fries and they were pretty good. Definitely was not the taste I was expecting. Yes, they had an option to add an egg to my kimchi burger (ie. the "Kowbell Classic")...so why not? This burger was big, filling and delicious. My daughter returned with our meals fairly quickly. This is a "must visit" in Katy. Next time I plan to try the "Fire on the mountain" burger.

    I Came on a whim and was able to experience Restaurant week . The food, the vibe, the staff, and…read moreChef Casey were absolutely amazing and welcoming. I had the ox tail tacos, oxtail empanadas, and ribeye. Delicious. It's cozy and very much a feel of "home," from the welcoming spirit and love put into the food. Chef Casey was very personable. He walked around and talked to everyone in the restaurant. Definitely a Katy gem and worth a try!

    We went for HRW with a reservation. It was packed so we were excited. There was a saxophonist and…read morehe was great, not too loud. The food just took way too long to come out. Our waitress was super sweet but you could tell they were either understaffed or not used to being that full. It took super long time for all of our food to come out. Appetizers came over 40 minutes after ordering and the mains came over an hour and 15 mins or so after we arrived, and that was with the mains being ordered halfway through the apps. The first bite of the oyster was ok. It didn't taste like it was just made but maybe pre-prepped perhaps. We were supposed to receive bread soon after the first bite but we didn't. It was difficult to flag someone down because the waitstaff was moving fast and bringing out food for all the tables. We received our appetizers and then I had to let them know that we didn't get bread. So our bread and appetizers were eaten together. Now onto the food. We ordered the shrimp, jollof ball, calamari, and tacos. The calamari was straight up not good. We didn't finish it and no one in our party thought it tasted fresh. It had a very odd texture. It wasn't chewy or have a bite like normal calamari does but it was like a sponge. We all took one piece. Our party is all about not wasting food but the fact that the appetizer was not finished was very telling. The shrimp had good flavor but wasn't spectacular. The tacos were good. The jollof ball was spicy and nice. Between the appetizer and the entree there was over 35 minute gap. For this reason, we asked if we could have more bread, but they said they charged for extra bread. Tbh, I don't mind if places charge little for bread service, but if it takes over 35 minutes for the entree to come out, I'd expect the restaurant to give another piece of bread per person for no fee. That's just good customer service but alas we declined the bread. For the mains we ordered the brai (10) up charge, the lamb chops, the ribeye, and pork chop. The ribeye was great, cooked well, juicy and with good flavor. Lamb chops were also nice. The pork had an interesting flavor that my party member wasn't fond of, but it was cooked nicely and was reasonably juicy. The big miss was the brai. It had a 10 dollar upcharge for 1 row of lateral axis short rib, 1 lamb chops, and 1 sausage. The short rib was fine but a crap ton of fat. The lamb chop was good, the sausage was raw in the middle. When I brought it up to someone that the sausage was raw, they took the same sausage and cooked it until it was done. Keep in mind the restaurant is dark and my other companions had some of the sausage but the outer pieces. I had a piece in my mouth and had to spit it out because I could feel the raw meat sausage texture in my mouth. Instead of bringing me a new sausage they took the same one, which to me is outrageous especially because I had spit out a good piece. The waitress apologized but I had to ask to speak to the manager instead of someone coming to our table first. When they brought the same sausage out, it rolled off the plate onto the table....i just accepted it. They took off the 10 dollar up charge off the bill but I don't think that was enough especially with the whole debacle of the sausage being raw. I expected the restaurant to have a solution but I was put on the spot about what they needed to do. I wished I'd asked for the 1 meal to be half off or more than 10 dollars off just because of everything and the food quality and the terrible wait times. The mashed potatoes also weren't great. Green beans were good, jollof rice side was good. Desserts were fine. All in all, we expected better quality of food and service.

    What a great dining experience! This was my first time here. I was heading into heavy rush-hour…read moretraffic, so I decided to avoid it and stop to have a good meal before heading home. This restaurant definitely aims to please. I was being very specific about what I wanted for my ribeye steak tonight; waitress Jessie was awesome and listened carefully to my requests. And then to make sure that I was absolutely happy, she brought Chef Kenneth to the table to discuss what I was looking for. Kenneth returned from the kitchen with three beautiful-looking ribeye steaks and we discussed which one would give me the best dining experience. He does some of the butchering himself so he knew exactly what I was looking for. I ended up being served the most fabulous Wagyu steak I've had in a very long time. Unlike the other steaks that can have a seasoning on them, the Wagyu is just salt and pepper and then is served with a beautiful compound butter slathered all over it. They make that butter in-house and it has wine and shallots and bone marrow and other wonderful stuff. Trust me, it's amazing! I ordered extra on the side and poured that all over the top of the steak. Delicious!! Sometimes little things count and it was served with grilled onion that was tasty. I could have had a side of mashed potatoes or asparagus, but I decided to treat myself and try the mac-n-cheese instead. Half of that food was my lunch the next day, so I left enough room for dessert, where my choice was the apple pie bread pudding with cinnamon roll ice cream. That was nice and moist and I enjoyed it. Overall, this was a really great dining experience and I'm so glad that bad traffic gave me the excuse to come here. Will definitely plan a return visit!!

    Our experience was disappointing due to the way we were approached by the manager. We had simply…read moremoved a table in bar area and instead of politely explaining the situation, the manager came over and told us we couldn't because the table cost $5,000. While we completely understand wanting to protect expensive furniture, the tone and delivery came across as rude and made our entire table feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. On the other hand, I want to recognize our waiter, who was excellent throughout the meal. Raymond was attentive, friendly, and did his best to make us feel comfortable again after the interaction with the manager. His professionalism and kindness were the highlight of our visit. Unfortunately, the food also fell short of expectations. In particular, I would not recommend the mussels. The flavor was unpleasant and left a very bad aftertaste, making them one of the least enjoyable dishes we ordered. Good customer service isn't just about enforcing rules--it's about how those rules are communicated. Unfortunately, the manager's approach, combined with the disappointing food, overshadowed what could have been an enjoyable dining experience.

    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.

    Another pleasant surprise in what I'm going to arbitrarily designate as a brunch fusion menu…read more Firstly, it's a very nice layout. 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.
