    The gentleman behind the counter (I presume the owner) was very robotic. We walked in with another couple and he repeated the exact same script to both of us. It didn't felt genuine at all. They had part of a corn hole set out (just one side) and our toddler ran to it and started playing with it. Immediately, we were told it was "custom made for the business" and for her to not walk on it. My husband got her down, and he said sarcastically, "Yeah... just like that.." as he did. My husband took our child out to the car while we waited for our cheesecake because she is rambunctious and we felt she was not welcome there. We ordered a 6 pack of mini cheesecakes (bananas foster, coconut cream, sweet potato, key lime, and cookies & cream) for $18 + tax. We were excited to dig in as soon as we got to the car, but they were all frozen. What if we'd wanted to eat them there? Very disappointing. Also - the disposable plastic container our cheesecakes came in was covered in water like it had been washed. Very unappealing. As soon as we left to get into our car, he ran around the counter to check on the corn hole. He thoroughly inspected it (she didn't hurt it) and carried it to the back. If you don't want something touched, don't have it out. If you want it on display, block it off or have a sign on it. We won't be back. Update: 20 min later, the cheesecake is soft enough around the edges to try it - it's good. Nice and rich.. but it shouldn't be frozen the way it is if we're purchasing it to eat then and there. They all seem to have the same traditional base and different toppings. Bananas Foster - The bananas stayed hard and frozen so long that we didn't get to enjoy them soft. Good flavor. Coconut Cream - My personal favorite. Caramel-y flavor. Key Lime - Limey enough to tell it's supposed to be key lime.. but no tartness or traditional key lime flavor. Cookies & Cream - Our toddler's favorite. She devoured it and didn't let us have a taste. Sweet Potato - Their signature flavor. Weird. The cheesecake softened enough to taste it but the sweet potato stayed rock hard on the middle. Floral-y flavor. Could be good if it weren't frozen, I imagine.

    Couldn't take a better picture since we ate all of them but one before writing this review. This place is awesome and the cheesecake? Absolutely scrumptious, you literally can't have just one! A quick in and out turned into a 20 minute convo with Ken, he told us his story and we were blown away! He's so awesome and his people skills are top notch. We will definitely be back for Friday Karaoke and chill time with Ken and Of course more cheesecake! P.S. all the flavors were amazingly delicious but my favorite was the turtle pecan!

    Several optional flavors from the standard and premium menu.

    Masterpiece Desserts is a cheesecake only eatery so don't expect to have anything other than cheesecake as an option. With that said, they have several innovative and creative options to include Apple Pie, Red Velvet and Sweet Potato. Unfortunately during my visit several of the servings were still semi frozen and challenging to cut into with the plastic ware provided. This also made it more challenging to true enjoy the different flavors. I'll give this another chance but todays experience was mediocre. They could have don't better

    3 mini strawberry cheesecakes

    Support a Black owned business! As soon as you walk into the door you are greeted with a big welcome from the staff. I loved the energy and he greeted everyone the same. If it's your first visit he'll give you the run down of all their options including their specialties. They have some really cute mini cheesecakes loaded with toppings. Some infused with liquor. Definitely allow them to defrost 30-40 minutes if you like yours smooth. I'm the kind of person that only does the simple cheesecakes (like people that doesn't like alot of icing in their cakes). So I got their strawberry cheesecake. That way if I didn't like the strawberry topping I could just enjoy the cheesecake. For me the strawberry glaze was very thick & sweet & may have overpowered the cheesecake for me. I would have loved that jam with some peanut butter lol.

    These were beyond delicious! (*we did fix these candles later to make them look nicer before we sang to the birthday boy lol)

    This has been was one of my best finds in a long time! I stumbled upon Masterpiece Desserts this past Saturday when I was scrambling to come up with something to have at my boyfriend's 40th birthday party later that evening. He doesn't like cake so wanting something different that we could still put candles in and sing happy birthday; these mini cheesecakes were the best things ever!!! My whole experience with them was great; from the lady on the phone that I spoke with first, to the gentleman at the store when I picked up my order, to having folks show up at the party and trying to sneak a mini cheesecake before we sang happy birthday because they looked so good! Everyone loved these delicious bites and I will absolutely be returning in the future!

    They are super friendly. Was greeted right when walking in. Explained the menu and gave recommendations as well. The place was very clean. The cheesecake was fresh and very good. They had some really good selections.

    Red velvet, fruity pebbles, cookies and cream, strawberry, turtle, and apple pie

    The cheesecake is made with love and you can definitely taste it. The minis make it possible for you to try all or some of the flavors without getting too full. My favorites are the apple pie, strawberry classic and raspberry rosé. Service is quick and chill/energetic environment. Highly recommend especially catering is great and customizable. Love it!

    The Cheesecake and the man. Just had an unforgettable dining experience....that evolved into an unforgettable human experience. First the cheesecake...these cheesecake mini's were creative, delicious, and served with an authentic customer service that rivaled the deliciousness of his cheesecake. My partner and I were lucky enough to hear Ken's amazing story. We immediately knew that he is destined for great things, cheesecake is just one of them. We even bought cookies to take home. We enjoyed the cheesecake from Masterpiece, the dinning experience, and the visit with it's owner. We will definitely be back

    What I received

    So several points. I ordered the one on the right. What I got on the left is disrespectful, What I got on the left is not worth the price I paid visually or in taste. Y'all started off wrong by asking me to pick this up an hour later than scheduled. It's for a birthday, and I set the time for 12pm, and you had more than the 2 days required before hand for this cake. Then, why would y'all package this cake like this. It needs a bigger box so there's less a chance that the box would smack into the cake. Which is what happened as soon as I picked up the cake, for the top and the sides. That's poor packaging. The glaze looks awful, and I know you can see there's no raspberries. This is not what I ordered. The minis look good though, and I've noticed the minis are what looked good for others orders as well, I don't see any of the larger cakes pictures in the reviews.

    Cute place with great cheesecake! My favorites were the apple pie, turtle, and banana. Owner provided great service and the place was clean.

    This wonderful company started bringing their food truck of deliciousness to our neighborhood farmers market. From the beginning, the demand was great. Once I finally got my hands on the cheesecake, I could see why! I don't even have adequate words to describe how amazing the cheesecakes taste. They nearly melt in your mouth. Seriously, the most delicious cheesecake I've ever tasted. All I can do is hope they keep coming out and that I arrive early enough each week to catch a six-pack!

    This place is a hidden secret. You do kind of have to look for it but once you find it you will not be disappointed. I honestly ordered one of everything on the menu some of them I got two of everything. The cookies were hot moist and perfectly made. All I was missing was a glass of milk. Definitely show up but you will wait a little bit for your dessert because they are making it fresh. Make sure that you do have some time to sit there and wait don't think this is going to be quick in and out

    The strawberry cheesecake and cookies and cream

    Omg!!!! These mini cheesecakes are the best!!! Not too sweet or overly creamy. The flavor combinations are awesome! It's a place you must try!!!

I had just been chatting…read morewith Gretel about breakfast tacos the day we landed in Houston -- and breakfast tacos are one of my favourite things about visiting Texas. We pulled up to this food truck and, while placing our order, I instantly had the feeling that this crew knew exactly what they were doing. That impression proved to be spot on as soon as I took my first bite. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with the kind of simple, honest ingredients that make great breakfast tacos so satisfying. No gimmicks, no unnecessary fuss -- just well-executed food that delivers exactly what you're hoping for. The service was efficient, the operation ran smoothly, and it was easy to see why there was a steady stream of customers. Overall, an excellent breakfast taco stop and exactly the kind of local experience I look for when I'm in Houston. Saluti.

Luckily, this spot takes both card and cash! I got the small beef quesadilla, and it was loaded with cheese. The small quesadilla was $5.50, and it was pretty decently sized for a small. They have salsa set out at the counter, so you can pack as much as you like. The red salsa was smoky and SPICY. Very tasty if you like spice I see a lot of great reviews about this place. I would like to try their other tacos and give a more detailed review. I will be back! but for sure the quesadilla was a hit for me

    Came here because my BF wanted to show me what his late nights at Rice were like after a few beers…read more I was tempted to order more than just the hot dog, but we had a heavy lunch. I swear the Bulgogi Fries were screaming my name, though. Yoyo's Hotdog - Yoyo--YO. This thing slaps. I definitely craved a Coke or a beer while eating this because that salt kicks your taste buds' *ss. The caramelized onions paired with the crunchy onions were a double whammy that could topple a few hot dog title holders. The real winner, though, was the sauce--definitely something Asian-inspired. But hey, I'm running on five hours of sleep, and that's the best my smooth brain could come up with to describe the experience. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

I got their famous hotdog with spicy mayo, french onion, sautéed onions, and hot sauce. (That's how it comes standard) don't get me wrong it's definitely a lot going on from the flavors and the messiness of the dog, but the flavors balance out very well and the all beef hot dog is delicious. There's no spice from the mayo or hot sauce so if you don't like spice you'll be fine. I also tried their bulgogi fries which came with bulgogi meat, jalepenos, cheese and cilantro. My first reaction was it was delicious but it wouldn't be something I would get again, but after I kept eating it I realized this is actually really good and now when I go back I'll definitely try it again. Overall I definitely recommend this place to visitors or even locals
