Cute place with a heartwarming backstory. Nice and busy for brunch on a Saturday morning! I got the scrambled eggs with chorizo and onions and it was DELISH. Also came with a biscuit and jam, which were average - the biscuit tasted like it might have been from a box or mix rather than scratch? But not sure. My friend got the Oliver's breakfast which was a large portion, and she also got a blueberry pancake, which was packed full of blueberries and had a nice crispy edge. She also ordered hot tea and got to choose her tea bag from a lovely box, which was a cute touch. The only thing I might say is that the owner was a bit brusque/gruff. I understand being businesslike and I know customers can be a pain in the food industry, but his attitude was just not very welcoming I suppose. Still a good experience overall though! Glad to see Oliver's is doing well! read more

Ate here again yesterday and was a little disappointed in the Veggie Selection. I was craving the Mediterranean sandwich. It didn't taste the same. It contains balsamic marinated mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, feta whip...all on what I think is an herb focaccia. This time, the balsamic was so prominent, I couldn't eat it. Which is saying a lot because I eat lemons like oranges. The liquid also soaked through my bottom piece of bread, making it soggy and inedible. My husband tried the Reuben and it was fantastic. I would definitely come back to order that one. I think I'm gonna have to steer clear of the other, due to inconsistency read more

Hubby and I had a great lunch at Oliver's yesterday. My friend recommended this spot to us, and it was a very enjoyable time. I got the half sandwich and half soup combo, and opted for the Overnighter sandwich (pulled pork) and Red Pepper Gouda soup. This combo was amazing, came out piping hot, and very flavorful. The portion size wasn't overly massive, however it was the ideal lunch-sized portion. Hubby got the Belgian waffle and a size of breakfast sausage. It was a hearty-sized portion and he especially enjoyed the homestyle flavor of the breakfast sausage. The restaurant is counter service and is a fairly small place, so I'd recommend visiting on a weekday if possible. They are closed every Sunday and Monday. We'd definitely return if in the area! read more

Tucked away in an unassuming strip mall off Cartwright road, has this hidden gem of Missouri City. Lovely family owned restaurant with a heartwarming reason for the name. Food can take a while on the weekends but it's really good. It's self seat, but you order at the counter. Make sure you know what to order first before walking to the counter. read more

What can I say. The food is just wonderful period!! This is one of my go to restaurants to bring my out of town guests for a casual breakfast in the neighborhood. After several visits since my initial review, I have a better appreciation & understanding of the owner's role of taking orders & efficiently working to seat the guests. From the build your own breakfast: Pancakes- I challenge you to try them & compare them to any other pancake that you thought was the best. These will become your new 'best pancake you ever had'. Biscuit is butter-laden and soft & moist. Homemade sausage full of good flavor with a hint of pepper. Eggs full of black pepper, grits creamy good. They even have chalupa hot sauce. Gotta love that! Coffee had an interesting toasted flavor, very robust. I drank it black. Nice ceramic cups. The coffee stayed warm for quite awhile without a refill. I highly recommend you give Oliver's a try!! read more

What a surprise. Took me by surprise as the order pay and sit is usually a tell tell. But was I wrong. The food was amazing the presentation was flawless. The cook and server were attentive and knowledgeable. A definite return. The pancakes, biscuits and the BLT are the best that I've had here in Texas. Will see us again soon. Son rated the pancakes best ever. read more

This is the 2nd time we've come and the food is still fantastic. It's a quiet little diner. The service is spot on. You still order at the counter and your food is brought out to your table. I had biscuits and gravy with a side of scrambled and hubby had shrimp and grits. Both were good enough that we would order them again. We also shared a pancake which was also really good. But we won't because we will order something else next time. read more

Service: 5/5 Food 3/5 My Order: Pancakes Grits Egg Orange Juice I was in between choosing the French toast and pancakes, I opted for the pancakes. I saw a lot of orders for the French Toast. I should have tried the French toast. The pancakes were fried to perfection, however, the oil used was not to my liking. It says butter, but I'm not sure what type of butter was used. I only ate a portion of the pancake. The egg was cooked to perfection, they added pepper already when they brought it to me. The grits came with butter added, the consistency was very fluffy and not grainy like a lot of other places. I did not care for it. I really wanted to like Oliver's. I do plan on giving them a try. I believe Oliver is the person at the register and he was very friendly. I wish more options for non pork were available for breakfast meat. Also, for the coffee they did not have milk alternative options, which is why I got the orange juice. I do love that he hires possible young culinary students. They provided great service. The ambiance was relaxing as they played jazz and the seating was comfortable. Green is the themed color and I observed a lot of families coming in and out. I do plan on trying again, maybe lunch. read more

The menu choices are tremendous. I don't think I've ever seen such a wonderful balanced choice of menu in a place. The prices were very reasonable and the service was top-notch. The creativity of the menu is mind-boggling. I had the strawberry shortcake biscuits, breakfast and the person I was with ordered the breakfast sandwich and they were both stupendous. Bacon was tremendous. Highly encourage you to visit this place. It's a great place for brunch, go with friends and family, etc. read more

Super busy on a weekday lunch time. Order at the counter and food came out pretty quickly. The overnighter sandwich was savory and had a umami (maybe the onions?) flavor that was so good! Would definitely order again! the Ollie sandwich was also good but nothing that would make me crave it. Also their ice tea is nice and refreshing. Overall, very friendly service and yummy food! read more

Oliver's Gourmet is a hidden gem in Missouri City, TX that sits in a strip center of other businesses. I found this place on Yelp looking for an in-between location for my friend and I to meet for brunch. The Yelpers were right! It did NOT disappoint! We both got The Gravy Train (Southern style biscuit & homemade sausage gravy) and it was delicious!! The only con is the restaurant is small. It's counter service so you have to order before you can sit and it was packed!! Unfortunately, you have to wait for people to leave in order for them to make room for you. The employee and possible owner was nice and helpful in being able to find a place for us to sit. Thankfully we got a table to ourselves because some customers had to share a table with other customers! I've very happy they are doing so well but the wait staff (two people) looked very stressed running around to get tables cleaned off and deliver food to the tables. I'm sure if they had the room to expand this place, they would. The line consistently stayed to the door, for good reason! So if you have time to wait around, I would highly recommend eating here. And it's always wonderful to support local establishments! read more

BEST BREAKFAST IVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE! I was visiting family from out of state and they raved about this place so of course I had to add it to my itinerary. The menu was so simple so I wasn't sure what to expect but let me tell you - everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection! i ordered the sausage, egg and cheese biscuit with a side of grits and potatoes. I was told the grits didn't come with any cheese or anything so I was a bit hesitant but guy who took my order said it would be the best grits I've ever had, and he was correct. The biscuit on my sandwich was so buttery and moist and the sausage was very juicy and had a nice crisp on the outside. The potatoes were all very tasty! And not to mention, it was absolutely stunning inside. This will now be my go-to place everything I visit from LA (my current residency). I also loved the decor and prayer wall near the bathroom. read more

Smooth jazz and gourmet pancakes on a Saturday morning. Found this spot and enjoyed one of the best breakfast meals in Fort Bend. Oliver' Gourmet is an average size, contemporary cool black/white decor in a small shopping center. The food is ordered at the counter with a large menu that creates a time challenge when you are holding up the line trying to make a decision. Afterwards you find a table and wait for some incredible food to be delivered to your table. I had the Ultimate Breakfast that had very flavorful sausage (homemade?), potatoes and scrambled eggs with a gourmet pancake. The pancake is absolutely the star of the meal. read more

Hidden Gem! You ever been to a restaurant where no matter how full you are you gotta finish it - this is that spot! The breakfast was phenomenal. I didn't taste one thing I didn't like, so let me give you the rundown. Bacon was really good-sausage was great. Breakfast potatoes were grilled and no extra seasoning was needed. I'm more of an instant grits person, but their grits will be apart of my order next time. THE BISCUIT! It's pre cut, both side have been buttered and thrown on the skillet, but it wasn't hard at all. This was one of the softest moist biscuits I've ever had. Now of course I had to have something a little sweet. The pancake is crispy on the edges and soft on the center and the flavor reminds me of a funnel cake. Even the tap water was good. It's a smaller restaurant, but you can reserve tables ahead of time and there's a cute story on the wall explaining who Oliver is. The service was good and everything came out quickly. Thank me later for this one. read more

Really good food! Cute place. Nice people. Very reasonable prices. Highly recommend! My parents had been here before and wanted us to go with them for breakfast. I was reluctant because their track record isn't the best but the online reviews were good too. This is an instance where the reviewers and my parents did not lead me astray. The place has a cute cafe vibe. Everything we had was delicious. Gravy train - a super fluffy melt in your mouth biscuit with creamy and tasty sausage gravy Breakfast club sandwich - Possibly the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. I will note that the side of potatoes are the only thing that were average. Not bad, but given how amazing everything else here was, the potatoes seemed meh in comparison. Belgian waffle - a very solidly good waffle The sweet Paris - the combination of mascarpone with the jalapeño pepper bacon jam with French toast is sooo good. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally was able to get there. It's very aesthetically pleasing and the food is DELICIOUS. I ordered the Oliver (traditional breakfast) and my kiddo got the waffle and breakfast potatoes. The toast was perfect and buttered to perfection, the grits were creamy and truly southern style! My kid who never finishes her plate, at least everything but half of her waffle (likely bc it was too big). All in all, this place was GREAT and I can't wait to take my husband back. Definitely stop by and give them a try if you're in the area! read more

Welcome to Oliver's Gourmet a place of miracles, amazing food, quaint jazz music, warm smiles, and great coffee. I've had breakfast here, and it was nothing short of amazing. From the first bite, you can tell they put real care into every dish. They told me the Reuben sandwich was one of the best around and they were right. Paired with the lobster bisque or the roasted pepper soup, it was an unforgettable meal. I truly love this establishment. I bring everyone I know here. The quality, the service, the attention to detail, it all stands out. I'll continue to support this gem of a place for as long as they're here. read more

Where do I start? From the moment we walked in the door, the experience was amazing. The ambiance is upscale dining. The decor is great. You order from the counter and choose a table. The owner will assist if needed. Once seated, a server will bring your drinks and silverware. Nice touch here: they were very professionally dressed in black restaurant attire. Very courteous. Then the food arrived. OMG, it was everything. Wonderful presentation, absolutely delicious. I can't begin to describe how wonderful everything was. This is the place to go! Everyone needs to experience it. It is a small dining area, so get there early! It is absolutely worth a wait. And don't salt & pepper until you taste. They season the food properly! Read the story of Oliver, of who the restaurant is named after. What a story of faith and God's amazing gifts! read more

Love this quaint hidden gem! Wish we had one in Sugar Land!! But I'll do brunch here with girlfriends!

the service is extremely personable every visit. French toast was great but the pancakes....perfectly cooked with amazing crispy edges!

This is my 3rd time here. Typically have come for breakfast but today I had lunch. Had the lobster bisque and half Reuben and it was delish! Also table had the Ollie, tots and smashed burger with fries! Everything was great! Service is always amazing as well, and I love the jazz music playing. Will continue to support this local spot! read more

Cute intimate place. Chairs are soft and comfortable. Customer service is very helpful and friendly. Order the Ollie Riser and it was delicious. The eggs were fluffy. Croissant was semi crispy. Wife had the breakfast club she thoroughly enjoyed it. She may ask for less mayo next time and it will be perfect. The toast was buttery and crispy. We've gone back a few times now. read more

Who knew?? My sister and I were looking for brunch spots nearby and our first time there made us want to go back for more. First visit: half sandwich, half salad. The chicken was delicious. But the salad? I believe this is the strawberry heaven salad. I wanted something else but they didn't have it at the time. However, the lady at the register recommended the strawberry one. *SLAMS CREDIT CARD* I'm not a fan of strawberries in my salad, but this was great! I will literally eat an entire bowl if I could. Second visit: we made it for breakfast! I got the biscuit & gravy with a side of bacon. Ordered an iced cappuccino. I ate and drank it all. Sister got a biscuit sandwich with bacon, egg, and cheese. Side of potatoes. She ate it all. Everything looked good and tasted good. Can't wait to go back! read more

A fairly new restaurant with beautiful interior. The colors are simple yet inviting. The restaurant is a little small (mostly tables for groups of 2 or 4) but they have a long table in the middle of the restaurant for a group of 6. Menu is simple and limited but in a good way. I had The Prime Time, and a side of Italian soup. The soup was scrumptious! It was loaded with sausage and potato, and well seasoned. A soup side wasn't good enough for my stomach, a bowl would be better. I like the buns on The Prime Time. Love that they were buttered and grilled. Yum! The filet mignon could be better seasoned for more flavors though. read more

Order at the counter and grab a table. I ordered the tuna salad sandwich on croissant with a soup. I forgot which soup but it was so salty I couldn't eat it. My daughter ate it. The sandwich was really good. My daughter liked her grilled cheese sandwich but didn't like her plain potato chips. They didn't have much side options for young kids -- salt & vinegar chips or plain chips. I heard their breakfast was great so we'll try that if we're in the area next time. read more

Love their pancakes I don't think anywhere can beat these pancakes. Wish it was closer to us but would love to bring my family to try it.

We took my 89 year old mother there for breakfast. Honestly they looked annoyed the minute we walked in the door. The older gentleman working the counter and taking orders, seemed bothered when we asked a few simple questions about the menu before ordering. The food was not gormet but basic and extremely overpriced for portions served. The food was delivered to our table over a 10 minute period. No one refilled our drinks. The whole mood of this place is just wierd. There is a definite "Christian" vibe going on here with their decor but but that seems to be where it ends when staff leaves their friendly inviting personalities at home. Go to Denny's or Waffle House. You'll get the same level of food, better service and for half the price. read more

For how expensive it is the food is just okay there is nothing special about it you can tell that I guess the owner favorites certain poeple and not to mention he is very rude! read more

This place is such a gem. I had a nice solo lunch here and enjoyed it very much. Service was great and ambiance was quaint. Food was awesome. I ordered the half Rueben with half strawberry dreams salad with a side of lobster bisque. Everything tasted fantastically fresh and of high quality. I ordered the strawberry shortcake & iced cappuccino to go. So yummy! Best coffee around. Reminded me of a cafe sua. Strong yet perfectly sweet. Price point is high but willing to support this local establishment if they continue to deliver on this level. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu! read more
