This place rocks!! The food is amazing and customer service is even better so kind and helpful!! Restroom are clean and the vibes are positive check Em out !! Thank you read more

Chris our waiter was absolutely amazing !! So attentive kind and professional. What was NOT professional was the blonde manager who had a disgusting attitude.... Zero customer service or the brains to understand what it is like to run a restaurant. I was on a first date that night and after the amazing service from Chris we asked to check out and she came out of nowhere with a horrible attitude.. made things very awkward when we were simply asking for the bill. She was extremely rude and disrespectful to our kind waiter Chris and made us believe he was treated unfairly and illegally within his rights as an employee. I believe in fair working environments and WILL NOT come back here or recommend this restaurant to anyone considering the unprofessionalism and bullying we experience here di to our waiter Chris. The name on the bill is Eddie Ramirez. To see a good hard worker treated with disrespect is appalling to me. We believe in treating workers and the working environment with fairness and respect and this did not happen... the management (blonde manager) made things extremely uncomfortable and weird on my date night to have me and my date question the integrity of this business.. Please practice better management before you get another bad review from lack of professionalism and low quality experience from here based on management interference on bullying an innocent waiter on a good date night.... So disappointed. read more

I'm probably one of the last persons to dine at state fare, but I visited their Woodlands location for National Burger Day. I was very happy to find out that they have an all-day, everyday happy hour with food and drinks when sitting at the bar. I ordered the cinnamon smoked old fashion which is smoked in front of you by lighting cinnamon sticks. I also tried the 1/2 dozen oysters and the State Fare Burger which was $7 off regular price, down to $12 during this special day. The burger is cooked to order and I requested medium rare. This deal came with French fries. The burger normally comes with double American cheese but I subbed for cheddar. Oysters - served chilled with charred half lemons, horseradish crema and cocktail sauce. Mine were small to medium sized and tasted pretty fresh. Old fashioned - pretty decent drink, the bourbon is not that great of quality and there is not a lot of smokiness to this drink. Burger - This was a good burger that was machine formed, but it tasted good enough to eat the entire thing. It is worth the price I paid, but I just don't feel it's worth the full price tag. Service was friendly at first when I was one of just a few customers at the time, but when it got busy as I was leaving, it ended up taking a while to pay my bill. Finally, the bartender in training stepped up and helped me with the bill. read more

State Fare Kitchen & Bar-The Woodlands - Cinnamon smoked old fashioned - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Spring, Texas

Came in right when they opened for lunch on a Friday. Everyone one from the hostess to our waitress and the general manager were so friendly and helpful ! I have been to another location but this one in the woodlands looks so aesthetically pleasing. I didn't realize they didn't have brunch items today but was extremely satisfied with the options we chose Drinks - I opted for the Margarita flight and the Breakfast Club (their take on an espresso martini)... bartender did their thing with the Breakfast club Food - I had the seared redfish and my friend had the Southern Fried Chicken Breast (subbed the sweet potato hash with French fries). Both were amazing and super flavorful Anyways I'm a fan of State Fare & will be back read more

Love the location and staff was super nice. Went on Super Bowl Sunday around noon and it wasn't crowded at all. Got a nice seat on the water and waitress was super nice as was the hostess. Food was pretty good but combined with vibe and courtesy of staff, I think the overall experience was perfect which is why it gets 5 stars. Park in the garage attached to the Whole Foods. Always parking spaces available there. Very short walk from there. The Rodeo Melt was pretty good. Don't know why it got the award as I didn't think it was "wow" good. But that's probably why I'm not a judge. I got it cooked medium at our waitress suggestion and it was perfect. Fries came out warm but got cold quickly outside so eat fast. You can get a salad instead. Or even Mac and Cheese but for more $ on that one. The chicken fried steak and eggs was better imho. Hash browns came out nice and crispy on the outside. The cathead biscuit was interesting. Fluffy on the inside and hard on the outside. It's call a cathead apparently because it's the size of a cat's head. I think it might be bigger than my cats head actually. It is big. The house jam is strawberry btw. Nothing special about it but tasted good with butter on the biscuit. read more

We arrived on Saturday, Dec 6th during the afternoon. The restaurant was nearly empty, there were a few people at the bar area and maybe 2-3 parties seated at the tables inside, and 1 party seated outside. We chose to sit outside. A waitress walked past us to service the other table of 2 but did not acknowledge us. Even if you are not serving a table, it is okay to speak to guests who have not been serviced and inform them that someone will be with them shortly. We waited for about another 10 mins or so and a gentleman finally approached us. He was kind and took our order. Not sure if they were short staffed or what but there were hardly any customers in the restaurant so customer service was expected to be top notch in my opinion. We chose the breakfast platter with biscuit, bacon and eggs, as well as the Birria Benedict. The bacon was overcooked and texture was leather-like, the biscuit was hard and inedible. The Birria Benedict however was really good! The Birria was flavorful and moist, the cornbread waffle was savory, soft yet crispy! The mimosa flight was also good. This was difficult to rate due to the lacking customer service and the breakfast platter quality. Overall the experience was average. read more

Casual dining near the water in the Woodlands. The restaurant is nicely decorated; we opted to dine in the patio. Our experience started with an old fashion prepared table side and a margarita flight. It all tasted wonderful and our server was awesome ! For our main course we ordered the seafood platter and the rodeo melt. The seafood platter was plentiful and fried to perfection. The shoestring fries were delicate and delicious. The Rodeo melt was cooked to my request (medium); it tasted juicy, deliciously packed with cheese and aioli. We completed our evening by sharing a funnel cake which was also perfect. I would definitely come back and try more of their dishes. Enjoy! read more

I wasn't very pleased with my experience here. We went on a weeknight. When I walked in there was very minimal patrons (maybe 2-3 tables) but it still took at least 10 minutes for anyone to come greet me at the podium a seat us. He was nice when he got there and gave us choice of table/area which was nice. The restaurant is beautiful. But when it came to food and drinks I was let down. I tried a non-alcoholic margarita and it was not good at all. I sent it back after one sip. We then tried the birria grilled cheese, rodeo burger, fries and Brussels sprouts. Everything was mid. The burger had a burnt taste to it. The Brussels were crunchy lacked flavor and the grilled birria was just "ok" also lacked flavor. I don't think I'll need to go again. read more

It was "ok." The price tag is reflective of aesthetics & presentation but leaves everything else to be desired. The food had attractive plating, but everything tasted mediocre. - Pancake was enormous, but nothing special. - Gunbo was 80% rice (which was hard & stale) and the stew was extremely salty. - Birria Benedict was dry (could have used more toppings & sauce) and disappointingly bland. Looks nothing like the menu photo, btw. - Jalapeño Hush Puppies was the one thing we ordered that was really yummy. Knocking down a few more points for uncomfortable seating... We made a reservation ahead of time & indicated the number of children and need for high chairs/boosters, but they fell short when we arrived. Our group of 8 (two families with littles) were crammed into sagging loveseats (not actual dining chairs). One of the infants was put into a booster seat (only seating available) with a broken harness. We had to make extra efforts to ensure the children were safe & secure the whole time, and that distracted from the meal. All in all, an unfavorable experience. Will not choose this place again for big groups, and especially not with children in tow. read more

And the place was very well decorated and nice seating with marble tables. read more

Always happy to have brunch here. They have great service with spectacular staff and the food never misses for me. The fact that their happy hour is every weekdays (3-7) is an added plus because I love their mimosa flights! Their whiskey glazed Brussel sprouts and "The Fare" tacos are spot on and a must have. Very neatly decorated tables and clean presentations. read more

Came here to celebrate my birthday with a few friends. We were seated at the awkward high top table. So half of our group had to seat on the high chairs. Personally I hate high chairs. Ambiance is absolutely beautiful, modern and spacious. Bathroom is very well taken care of and very clean even though it was Friday night. Service was super friendly, attentive and nice, we definitely enjoyed the experience. We ordered few appetizers for the table, including avocado salad and crostini, all was tasty. I had a fish fillet for my main and it was delicious. Overall a very positive experience except the weird high top table. read more

I've been to Sunday brunch here a few times and State Fare never disappoints. The beautifully decorated Cajun style restaurant sits right on the woodlands lake with a beautiful view.

We also order the XXL griddlecakes every time we go read more

The ambiance and food here was great but the staff was terrible. We arrived a little before shift change and our first bar tender didn't know how to make our drink requests and it was impossible to get the attention of our second bar tender, even though there was no one in the restaurant. She seemed extremely annoyed when we ordered food and ended up charging us for multiple drinks we didn't order. My fiancé brings his coworkers and clients here for lunch all the time and he decided he won't be coming back after this experience as the staff was extremely off putting. read more

Absolutely five stars across the board. State Fare in The Woodlands (Hughes Landing) delivered one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. The service was sharp and attentive without being overbearing. The food hit every mark. I went with the shrimp and grits and was fired up to find they included fried crawfish tails too. As a pescatarian, that kind of attention to detail and flavor is hard to beat. The mimosa carafe was next level, crafted with care and a step above the usual. Vibes were laid-back but refined, making it easy to settle in and enjoy. read more

I tried this place because of the grilled Birria cheese sandwich. It did not disappoint! The meat was absolutely seasoned to perfection. The consume was delicious ! The chicken fried steak was fried crispy just how I like it. The steak and mashed potatoes were yummy as well. The brussels sprouts were phenomenal. Our waitress was really kind and patient and the manager came by and checked on us a couple of times. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for some down home food with a cozy aesthetic environment. They also had live music. Definitely check it out if you're ever in the area! read more

First time here and I was pleasantly surprised! The ambiance was light and cheerful. From the time we walked in service was great. We had to call in and make a reservation but our table was ready! Our waiter, Anthony H. was attentive and made sure that he kept checking to make sure our food was to our satisfaction. The entire experience was fantastic and I will definitely add this place to one of my regular locations to eat and drink. By the way say hello to Justin during your visit. I met him on my way out and he is an awesome manager. I watched him moving around the restaurant and in the kitchen. Justin definitely cares about State. Fare and makes sure everyone is receiving supreme service. read more

I was in the area and decided to try their Fare Deal menu. First off ,the place was very clean..I was greeted and seated promptly. My server Angel was fantastic. The $12 chicken fried steak was huge with plenty of mashed potatoes and green beans. I also had to try the Brussels sprouts. Gordon Ramsey would be proud of them. I ate less that half and asked for a box to take the rest back to my hotel. Angel actually boxed it up for me. Could not have been a better experience. read more

Fabulous little restaurant! Love the decor! It is trendy and fashionable. The Happy Hour is great! My Watermelon Mule is so refreshing. Our server let us choose where we wanted to sit and we wanted the back room since my grandson is with us. He checked on us and brought our food and drinks all in a timely manner. Very nice! We tried 4 different bites: the chicken and waffles which is like a waffle cone, smoked chicken nachos, GFD with nice crust, plus the salmon cakes which were our favorite. Enjoyed State Fare very much! Happy Hour is the best! read more

Really cool decor and a great space. We were a larger party and the service, pace and food was just all perfect! We started with a lot of appetizers for the table and each one was exceptional. The Hush Puppies were delicious/ they were light and fluffy and the best I have had! We all loved them! The dill dip and chips were also phenomenal and despite the table ordering a lot of appetizers ~they were all devoured! I had the Poke Bowl for my main course! It was fresh as could be, delicious and full of flavor! Had a great experience and loved State Fare read more

I've been in there twice and every time I come in when there's no one in there and the staff stands around and talks to each other while you're waiting to be seated. And once you're seated, they're not that friendly. They act like they have other things to do when there's no one there, and the food is not that great either. I would definitely not recommend this restaurant when there's so many other restaurants around Hughes landing to eat at. read more

AWESOME FOOD. We typically go to the same place for weekend brunch daze (True Foods)... buuuut, this weekend we decided to s p i c e things up and try State Fare's. And were we not disappointed. My absolute favorite of their brunch dishes (which I will definitely order again in the near future) is their Birria Benedict. Now, I am not a huge hollandaise person so I asked it on the side and everything tasted perfect! I loved loved LOVED the jalapeño cornbread waffles that came with it! They were super crispy and ARGHHHH. We also ordered their bacon praline pancakes... lemme tell ya: THEY ARE NOT FOR THE WEAK. HUGE, bigger than two faces combined, sweet n' salty just made my heart SWELL. And my stomach expand (hehe). Everything can be also boxed up for later if you do not finish your food there, complimentary of course. My dad got their state fare breakfast and he was pleasantly-satisfied. Their biscuit is HUGE (yet again, no surprise there hahaha). He also loved their house made jam and he is not so much a ham person so that says something! SERVICE WAS AWESOME. Our waitress was sweet and understanding after we had some mishaps with ordering the pancakes and avocado toast. I can tell all their servers were trained to the best of their ability and were willing to help anyway for us to enjoy our mealtime together!! ATMOSPHERE WAS SPECTACULAR. Of course, you cannot be disappointed whenever your view is of the lake and walkway. I can only imagine how beautiful the sunset will be for happy hour!! Note: I didn't picture the pancakes because we asked for everything to be on the side so it was not beautiful, just really big plain pancakes lol read more

While staying in the area I decided to try out State Fare and made a second trip because it was so delicious. I was greeted promptly and escorted to sit immediately. The Waiter was very knowledgeable on the menu and gave a few recommendations, one I decided to go with. We had the hot honey chicken wings as an appetizer and they were very delicious. I had one because I don't want to ruin my appetite. I had the Korean inspired BBQ skirt steak with kimchi rice. When I tell you this was delicious I literally inhaled it. The steak was perfect just the way I like it and the presentation 10/10. My mom Had the southern fried chicken beast on a bed of sweet potato mash. She rated it a 10/10. On my second happy hour trip I decided to get the Birria & Sharp Cheddar Grilled Cheese with a side of fries. This was a flavor explosion in my mouth. The serving as large and I had a few delicious cocktails so I took half to go. I will definitely make my way back for the amazing food and awesome service! read more

For a late Sunday brunch, food was quite good; the ambiance was a nice upscale Sunday brunch place would be, but feel like it was overpriced for the portions.

Absolutely phenomenal service, food, atmosphere, and attention to detail. Ariana and Kate were our waitresses and I have never received as good of service as I did with them at ANY restaurant- they were incredibly helpful with menu suggestions and were able to help us pick food options to try! They were Incredibly pleasant, people oriented, and fun as well! As for the actual decor and ambience...stunning. I adore the brighter accent colors and BEAUTIFUL windows looking out on the lake, the comfortable seating all around (the chairs are wide and very much plus size/wide hip friendly!) and cleanliness on the Saturday night we went. Food was a definite 10/10 all around. We happened to receive a special menu that was offered that day with a few select $12 main entrees and even cheaper appetizer options! Finally, the attention to detail amongst ALL the staff during that Saturday night was phenomenal. You are able to watch the kitchen staff preform the final quality check through a large wine rack / bar area and for each item we ordered it was made clear they wanted to ensure all garnishings were on and everything was plated wonderfully! At the end of the night we were told by our waitresses that they had a "special suprise" for us and proceeded to bring out a complementary first-timer fried oreo dessert that, as per usual, was DELICIOUS. I would, again, highly reccomend going to visit Ariana and Kate for the most lovely experience for some first timers. We will be back many, many times. read more

State Fare Kitchen & Bar-The Woodlands - Woodlands State Fare is outstanding!!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Spring, Texas

We weren't sure what to expect when we entered after reading some of the reviews. We were very pleasantly surprised. Restaurant was very pretty inside and felt more expensive than the name implies. I couldn't help but notice how the servers expertly moved about the dining room and touched tables even if they weren't their own. Freddy our server was excellent in every way. The Breakfast Club cocktail is a must have. A perfect expresso martini with coconut, and an excellent wake up. Birria Benedict was terrific, eggs perfectly cooked and really tasty beef. I had the griddle cake. Huge! I had to bring half home. It was perfectly cooked, but paying a $2 up-charge I definitely want to see blueberries in my griddle cake. A few total didn't quite make the grade. Why only four stars? When we first entered the person greeting us was a bit brusque and short with us. She seemed frustrated that we made a reservation, but there was no table ready. Although not our fault, she gave the impression she was annoyed with us. Little did we know the general manager Kim was also at the desk.... A true delight and master of service recovery! Bright personality and truly cared about us and getting us settled. She came by often and even stopped to chat. Felt like we had just met what would soon be another member of our Texas village. We will definitely return!
