And the grab-n-go area has their overnight oats, chia puddings, plus bottled drinks. Prices aren't listed but there's a menu with prices + other items like sandwiches, bowls, and salads. The menu is expansive-- don't forget the coffee and drinks too! For the pastries, the croissants are always beautiful but the texture isn't what I'd call a typical croissant. I've tried the croissant swirls (circle croissants) and more traditional versions, and they have more of that soft bready texture of a grocery store croissant. Maybe reheating it at home makes it flakier? The cookie croissant is my favorite croissant even though I wouldn't consider it a true croissant based on texture alone (more of a soft buttery bread with cookie dough!). The cookies are big and thick but definitely on the softer side without much chew. I do love their cake jars-- the moist layers matched with a whipped frosting make an extra delicious treat! The overnight oats and chia puddings are extra tasty as well (more of a dessert :P) It's definitely busy-- besides for the dining experience, people come here to study, work, and hangout. There's a drive through but not sure how efficient that is, so try ordering through their website instead. There's also a loyalty program! I'd visit more often if I lived in the area-- their Herman Park location had a limited menu and isn't as big or nice, but it'll do until I come back :P Swing by to check them out for some good eats and trendy seats :)

It is actually filthy underneath the initial beautiful surface. It came to the point that I feel icky being there.

To the owners: I worked in restaurant management years ago, please message me and I will help you recover and maintain your business. This will have you lose your loyal customers.

3.5 stars because Onion Creek has the vibe down perfectly, but the experience didn't fully meet my…read moreexpectations this time around. The patio is still one of the best spots in the Heights for people watching, casual drinks, and soaking in a laid back Houston evening or trivia night. Top tier trivia is that's your thing. The space feels artsy, eclectic, and very "Heights-core" in the best way. That said, the service inside was good as usual but a little slow considering it wasn't overly busy. I came for their weekly steak night and it just wasn't giving. My medium well steak came out very obviously medium rare! I heard another table joking about how many customers took their steak back to the grill as I walked past them with my plate. Yes, the cooks happily put it back on the grill but I had to stand there and wait for it to cook while my friend sat alone at our table. My baked potato was cold when I got back. The 3 guys cooking the steak looked so unmotivated. They should take more pride in the food they serve and the servers need to check back on their tables and make sure people are happy with their food. I shouldn't have to run my steak back. Overall, Onion Creek is still a solid neighborhood hangout with a great atmosphere, but I'd love to see a little more consistency with the service and food quality to match the charm of the location.

Very solid spot for a date night, couple's brunch, or a family meal!…read moreThis place is a great option whether you're looking for a romantic date night, a relaxed brunch as a couple, or even bringing the whole immediate family. It's definitely family-friendly, though I wouldn't recommend it for a very large group since seating seems a bit limited. For a standard family of 3-5, though, it should work just fine. The food was genuinely excellent. They make their corn tortillas in-house, which really elevates the dishes. The salsas are fresh and flavorful -- just a heads-up: the habanero salsa is seriously spicy! If you're not used to really hot food, I'd steer clear of that one. My wife ordered the chilaquiles and she's pretty picky when it comes to authenticity and traditional flavors. She really enjoyed it overall and said the flavors were spot-on. Her only small note was that it was a bit overly sauced. That said, they were very generous with the meat, which made it satisfying and delicious. I went with the surf and turf tacos (shrimp and steak). They were really tasty -- the combination worked well, and the homemade tortillas helped tie everything together. My only minor critique is that they could have used just a touch more seasoning. I ended up adding a little salt to bring out the flavors. The one area where they could improve is the customer service. When we arrived, we were seated right away, but then we sat for about 15 minutes without anyone coming over to take our order. We actually had to get their attention, and at one point we even moved to a different table before a server finally noticed us. Once the food came out, no one really checked back on us during the meal either. The staff wasn't rude at all -- just a bit inattentive and slow on service. Overall, we'd definitely come back for the food. With a little more attention from the waitstaff, this spot could easily be a 5-star experience.

This place has no esthetic or good food. I feel like they should focus on being a coffee/juice bar. The restrooms are in a weird place and weird paint on them. I guess they wanted for them to look rustic, idk... the tables also weird placement and then they have this area where I guess you can buy groceries with an almost empty fridge like why???... the staff is really bad... they where all together hanging out by the restroom area. Again the placement of this place is almost like they had intended to make it be an upscale coffee/juice bar which it would be great if they only focus on that. But back to the staff. All the women waitresses acted as if they should be the ones cater too. The manager on the phone the whole time while being visible to the guests. I asked my waitress for a coke and water she looked at me like I had asked for something from mars. She replied a coke? I said yes please. She got me the water but not the coke. I even thought I might be wrong and they don't sale that here. I looked at the large menu of juices/smoothies and in smaller print I see Coca-Cola. A waiter asked if I was ok I guess he must of seen my look of confusion. I asked him if they sold cokes bc I had asked for it and my waitress never brought it. He said ok. The waitress brought it over. I got out to eat 3 times a week and I know I will not get the same service every where and sometimes without us knowing subconsciously our waitresses/waiter might not vibe with us and thats ok. But don't act like the guest owes you the life you want. Maybe a little self reflect will help get you get the life you want. Back to the menu. They had a menu with multiple pages but most of it was the same menu like why have a lunch and dinner menu if it's almost the same. Most of the menu are tacos. We're in Houston where there's no lack of tacos. Honestly I feel like the people that go here just go to be seen or say they went to "river oaks" which if you're from Houston you know that's not river oaks. Anyways they should stick to being a juice/coffee bar and stop selling these wack tacos because it almost makes it look like they're fake Mexican food

The Suga Rosa is very good, but I asked if the meatballs were homemade and I was told yes. Well, if you know me, you know I know meatballs. These were equivalent to meatballs at the store...very small, same size, flavorless and definitely not homemade. If this were from the frozen section of a store. If I owned the restaurant I wouldn't let that item pass the counter to the customer. I wouldn't eat them myself. I have to say the pizza is very good. Wood fired. Also, my hubs Salmon was dry. They left pasta off as our wish, they served it grilled squash. Kids is ample and of the best seen. Want dessert? Homemade Gelato in the case. Love the store items and small deli.

I cannot begin to tell you how disappointing was my first and last visit to Nundini Chef's Table…read more But I'm going to try. I first heard about this place on the late and lamented Chowhound food forums over a decade ago. I was intrigued. The descriptions and photos suggested that it was an Old World style eatery for which you needed a secret password to gain admittance. And in hindsight, perhaps that was the issue - I didn't know the password. My experience reflected an utter lack of care about the product they were delivering. First the good. It was dark, moody and definitely delivering the Americanized Old World vibe. I was eventually greeted by what turned out to be the sole front of the house employee on duty. Young guy, very pleasant, should definitely be working at a better place. I was there to place an order to go for myself, my mom and my brother who was recently discharged from the hospital and basically home bound. I arrived around 11:45 on a Saturday morning and there was only one occupied table. I placed an order for two Chicken Piccatas, one with asparagus, (mom's) and one with aglio olio spaghetti, (mine), and one New Orleans sandwich which is actually a panini, for my little bro. The piccata was OK, nothing special. The sauce was straightforward and simple with capers and lemon; it did not have olives, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, or any of the other add-ons that some chefs use to "make it their own". I greatly prefer the simpler version. The chicken was too thick, overdone and not close to the fork tender version I had expected. The asparagus was limp, mushy and looked unappetizing to me, but mom ate it. The spaghetti was good and made with a ton of garlic which was fine for me, but might have been too much for some. The panini was just awful. Really, really, really bad. See the photos below. It was supposed to come with an "olive salad". We were expecting a New Orleans style muffuletta olive salad. Instead they just threw on a scant handful of chopped black olives. Worse, the bread went beyond roasted to actually burned. Had it ended there, I wouldn't be so critical, but they also burned the meats. You'll note the photo where not only did the burn the meat but even managed to scorch the pistachio in the mortadella. How do you even do that in a panini?!? He couldn't eat it. I had a glass of house Chianti in the bar while I waited for the order. All in, my bill was just north of $80. I swear to you that I have been looking forward to popping in to Nundini's for a decade or more. I have rarely been as disappointed in a restaurant ever. I do very much wanted to earn that secret password! Lastly, during my chat with the waiter he noted that Chef Nundini was in the kitchen though not necessarily cooking. He should have at least smelled a burning panini. I should have stopped in at Olive Garden!!

On top of that, the staff was extremely friendly and understanding and made the experience 10x better. We got their appetizer sampler but had to replace the sliders with onion rings as they were out of the patties. All of the appetizers were decent and satisfied our cravings, my favorite had to be the fried pickles. We all got different sandwiches and one friend got the breakfast tacos without the meat. If you are vegetarian, this restaurant still works great bc they're open to customizations and already have a few of meat-free options. I opted for the Philly cheesesteak with fries. The sandwich was a little dry but I still loved it. As a fries lover, I was very happy with my fries and we had leftover queso from our appetizer sampler that went great with my meal.
