Real comfort food, very tasty. The staff were very nice and very courteous. Super accommodating. I called the place first to confirm they were still open, and even tho they were close to closing, they still waited for us. They even asked for our order ahead of time so it will be fresh and ready when we arrive. That was really appreciated. The restaurant is on the first floor inside a corporate building. Depending on the time, parking can get busy, but when we got there, there were still plenty of open spots so it was easy for us. Food came out hot and flavorful, and you can tell they put care into it. Overall, great experience. I would come back again next time I'm in the area.

I started with a pork boudin link, which was flavorful but a little wet for me (I prefer a grilled and taut boudin link). But the gumbo was superb.

The service was a 3 only because the one of the waiters / cashiers was running around doing all the work while the other guy avoided any customer contact at all! We tried to no avail to get his attention as the other waiter was checking people out pulling to go orders. The other guy just stood there w his back to the customers that's pathetic! Not a good look ! I don't think we will return it's just super average nothing special.

Been here before but I've been craving it recently for a particular reason I'll mention later on…read more First, I gotta give praise to the decor and layout. Very vibrant and unique, with a neat outdoor area and amazing TV placement for those who care about that. Even their to-go counter is well decorated and themed! I can't comment on the atmosphere since both times I've been it's been relatively quiet, but I'd imagine on a busy night this place could have a fun atmosphere. Joshua was our server and he did a good job, and our food came out relatively fast, so no issues with service. As for the food however, I can't be as positive. Last time I had the Mahi Mahi and thought it was fine enough. This time I decided to try one of their burgers. I'll be honest, I like my burgers pretty plain, which is its own can of worms. Point being, the bun tasted very odd and almost stale, and the patty was very mushy and lacked flavor. The signature sauce was also unappetizing, with it being some sort of distant cousin of mustard or potentially a very odd Thousand Islands? I'm not sure if additional toppings would save this considering the unappealing foundation. It just left me very unfulfilled. The milkshakes on the other hand? Fantastic. Definitely the highlight. It was just as good as the last time I went. I haven't been to many other places that matches the quality of here. Could not recommend more. I've yet to try the chicken or other fish so I can't comment on their quality. All I'm gonna say is, burger lovers maybe approach with a grain of salt. 3/5

It could use a bit of seasoning on the rice and oxtail on the pork chop plate the pork chops are perfection the gravy not so much. The yams they are OK. The corn is bussin.

I ordered the #1 and it was a pretty big/decent sized chicken sandwich for having only gotten 1 tender. I will say I expected more flavor wise. Also, you have to pay 75cents per each small sauce cup which is a bit ridiculous in my opinion and at least one should be offered complimentary for each meal. They also don't have any sort of outside seating to eat at, it really is just a food truck. So keep that in mind if you're planning to pick up/eat here. On another note the to guys working were nice and helpful answering questions!

A large, soft, salty pretzel and creamy, decadent dip made this app a 10/10. Then we tried a couple of cups of gumbo which had the best roux I have ever tasted... Another 10!!! I could just order a pretzel and a bowl of gumbo and be completely satisfied with my meal here. For our mains we got the sticky chicken and fried catfish. Sticky chicken was a little sweet for my taste 7/10 and the catfish was perfect, another 10/10. The sides were good but the jalapeno blueberry coleslaw stole the show. If you're ever in the area this restaurant is a must try! They'll be moving to a new location soon and I hope it has the same cozy feel as this original location.

A small one crawling on the wall near our table and someone from my party saw a larger one crawling near the kitchen. And boy was it stuffy in there. I asked our waitress if she could move a floor fan near for some relief and to detour the gnats, she said she go ask but she never came back and when she did she completely forgot my request. We weren't seated in the greater eating area where it was cooler and maybe where the gnats were less of a bother. The food was delicious and homemade, you can tell it was made with high quality ingredients and that Southern skill that you can only get from helping Grandma in the kitchen. BUT the roaches made us lose our appetite. Such a shame. It seemed like the building went down. They don't seem to put as much effort into the condition of that place as they do the food. Dusty ceiling fans and crummy floors. I appreciate the homey vibe but it looked really junky, more stuff piled in unoccupied corners as before. I gave a lot of things the side eye, I mean it there has to be maintained asthetic. They charged an 18% gratuity on my tab for a party of 8 but I arrived with 4 people, the other 4 had already been there, paid and was almost done with their meal. Then of course the cashier/waitress still mentioned an additional, optional tip. I didn't think that was fair. At the end of it all she wasn't the best waitress.

I had not automatically opened the plate to check the salad because I had never had a issue with the quality of food at Kelley's because I had eaten from the Pearland location before it the food was always great.

I will not ever again order from this location, and try using fresh acceptable produce when guests spend over $17 on your shrimp salad...Do better!!!
