    "What He opens no one can shut, and what He shuts no one can open"
    Keandra P.

    Came here with my wonderful Pearland Yelper for a breakfast. Both of us for the first time. Parking - easy, shared lot. Walked in without a resy, and was seated. The place gets busy during peak times, understandably. It's breakfast all day, definitely family oriented with a spirtual leaning of Bible quotes and crosses, and great for big groups. But don't worry to those that are not religious, the message is not overt, all seem to be welcome. Food- My friend got the Big Breakfast $14.95, with the fixings on her pancakes of bananas $1.95 & pecans $.95, strawberry butter $.95 ×2. I got the big breakfast $14.95. I added the jalapeño chedder toast- that was so good my favorite bite of the meal, would recommend. Our total was $38.70, which I was impressed with, cost wise. Pancakes were large & good. Service - our server Tony J definitely had experience and it showed. He was great. Walked us through all our options. Checked on us just enough. I enjoyed my meal and left with my stomach satisfied along with my wallet. Enjoy.

    The Berta in all its glory!

    Joining the waitlist was definitely the right choice - they are busy! The service and food were wonderful!! Kind, attentive server, and delicious quick breakfast!!

    Very familiar atmosphere, delicious food, good presentation in the dishes, very friendly staff. Very clean place, and good prices.

    When I knew we were coming to League City for two weeks, I started my Yelp restaurant investigation. Red Oak Cafe is a restaurant we hadn't visited before and it's super close to my sister's house. Today was the day. First, the ambiance. The restaurant is clean and has some cute touches including the lighting fixtures and some iron work here and there. The tables and chairs are not fancy. The walls are nearly empty with the exception of the oak tree and biblical verse that covers most of one wall. It's just a little plain overall. Our server was very nice and helpful. The time it took for our breakfast to arrive was just about right. It was clear our meals were prepared after our order hit the kitchen. I had the Guacamole Toast - house-made guacamole, tomatoes and sprouts atop thick-sliced wheat toast. It had a bit of a kick and a lemony flavor. It was quite tasty. It came with hash browns, which were surprisingly delicious. They weren't extra crispy, which I like. Rather, they were cooked and seasoned perfectly. Sometimes hash browns can be a throwaway, but these were a wonderful accompaniment to the guacamole toast. I ordered a side of bacon - three pieces. They weren't super crispy, but they weren't limp. Once again, as with the hash browns, the bacon was cooked perfectly. It was actually a delight. Mark has the Hot Mess Bowl - two biscuits, two strips of bacon, two sausage patties, scrambled eggs and country gravy served with hash browns. Jalapeño gravy was an option and our server mentioned the meal could come with a half country and half jalapeño. Mark asked about the jalapeño gravy. She said it was very good so Mark opted for all jalapeño gravy. The meal was accidentally served with both gravies. Mark said having it would be fine. He cleaned his bowl so it was clear he enjoyed it. It was a LOT of food! Even mixed, the gravies were definitely spicy. While Mark loves spicy food, if he were to get this meal again he'd stick with just regular country gravy. The food and service were great. The ambiance was definitely lacking. I wavered between a three and four star review. Because food is ultimately the most important thing, I opted for four stars. If half stars were a thing, I'd give Red Oak Cafe 3.5 stars.

    Breakfast Sandwich and pancake, dont mind my tabasco sauce lol

    The food was as good as it looks on all the pictures, I ordered the breakfast sandwich and a side of pancakes and omg the pancakes was delicious. I already cant wait to go back!

    For a great cup of Coffee with lots of options be sure to check out Red Oak Cafe.
    Mike C.

    If you're looking for a great cup of coffee and delicious food Red Oak Cafe is your spot. Lots of coffee options and creative choices for food. Pro-tip if you order a meal with the sausage gravy try it half regular and half jalapeño. Always friendly and always clean this place is a definite must.

    Big breakfast with eggs, bacon, hash browns, biscuit, and strawberry/Oreo pancakes.

    We went because we heard amazing reviews about their sweet cream pancakes, and we were not disappointed! The entire meal was a treat! My daughter and I shared the big breakfast (pictured) and brought home leftovers. Our pancakes were strawberry and Oreo and as you can see from the picture, we couldn't wait to take a picture to try them, delicious!! The sweetest part of our visit was our server Linda! She was so sweet, gracious, and attentive, make sure you ask for her!!

    Eggs with bacon/ hasbrown (part of the biscuit and gravy plate)

    Amazing breakfast... I had the biscuits and gravy plate... I requested my gravy on the side since I asked for the jalapeño gravy and I wasn't sure if I was going to like it... well I LOVED IT. The plate comes with eggs bacon and hash-brown... honestly 2 people can it from this plate since the portions are big. We also had a stack of pecan pancakes and they were delicious. The place has multiple bible verbs thru out the restaurant which we love. Place was clean and our waitress was amazing too!

    The big breakfast @14.95 you can't beat this
    Donnie L T.

    This was by far one of the best places I've been in awhile for breakfast and at the price I paid for it let me tell you it was well worth it. The ambience of the place quaint and quiet, somewhat of a homely feel and still and quiet like library people are just concentrating on eating. Very different from any place I've been because the bathroom you can leave words of wisdom on sticky notes on the wall to give people I suppose for inspiration. All in all I give this place and A++, so if your long for breakfast to eat off of all day and maybe into the next this is the place to go.

    ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?!?! This is my new spot!!!…read moreI wanted a big burrito, I searched online and couldn't find anything in my area. However I stumbled across a picture of a beautiful breakfast taco. So I followed the link. HAPPY TAKOS. I walked in and was instantly greeted by a beautiful smile. Her name was Natalie. I told her I was craving a huge burrito one for me one for my wife and I also wanted to try one of their amazing looking breakfast taco tacos. Now what I expressed was obviously something that was not on the menu however, they had zero issues making me a huge burrito.. This thing was massive me and my wife both ate half of it and the second half looks like it's still a full burrito. lol. The flavor is incredible. The breakfast taco was amazing. The staff was awesome. Even the kitchen staff waved to me as I was leaving the building. They were very happy to accommodate my order.. This place was clean service was extremely fast and everything was done with a smile and love. I will absolutely be back. I'm not bullshitting when I say this is my new favorite place. Highly recommended!!!!!

    I was torn between 3 and 4 stars for Happy Takos…read more There's plenty of parking AND a drive thru which is really nice. I didn't realize this and ordered via online pickup which was totally unnecessary. I walked in and there were a few folks eating inside but it wasn't busy and I didn't have to wait in line at all to get my food. The young man who handed me my food was polite so the service was good. The ambiance reminded me of torchy's tacos but smaller. The ingredients, tortillas, veggies, etc all tasted fresh. The Boss Hogg breakfast tako with pork guisada, refried beans, cheese and an egg over medium was unique and it was nice having it and the chorizo and egg tako at 3PM. Th ground beef tako was typical but super fresh. My faves were the Boss Hogg Tako and the ground beef sope. The masa sope was delish. The runny egg on the Boss Hogg really kicked the tako up a notch and made it nice and juicy. I would say though overall everything was kinda bland. It seemed as if it needed a little more salt/seasoning. I added a little more salt but that didn't seem to do the trick. I added the sauces provided and while they weren't awful, they were also a bit bland so they did nothing for the tacos. I would return and look forward to trying some of their other options. There's a keto menu as well and you can make most of the tacos a bowl or get them lettuce wrapped.

The place was packed and there was a line of people waiting - I knew that was a good sign! The line moved fast and the staff were like worker bees - everybody getting the tables cleaned, people seated and orders taken with in minutes of sitting down. Mary the Manager never missed a beat - she was making it all happen and made it look effortless - with a smile on her face. Our server SAL was top notch, explained everything on the menu that I drilled him about - really painted a picture of what the items was all about, helped me with making a selection! Give that kid a Gold Star - he is my server for life at Red OAK. He took care of us with a smile and quick service, what a shining star they got when they hired him! Now for the food - mercy is all I can say - the biscuits were out of this world - flaky, fluffy and fabulous! I got the Breakfast special and everything on the plate was perfect - the bacon was nice and crisp, hash browns were golden and egg really over easy - cooked to perfection. THE Pancakes - eyes rolling back in head - the biggest, fluffy golden brown things you have every seen and the syrup came in a glass carafe that warm syrup was an extra special touch. The coffee was their own brand and the flavors were Pecan and Cinnamon, very smooth, and very hot and refilled often. Do yourself a favor and go to Red Oak Cafe in League City on Main Street and ask for Sal and get ready for a great expericence and excellent food and service! I live in Woodlands Tx and will drive 60 miles again to eat at this place!
