    Apple crisp
    Thea W.

    If you're craving a a true country southern comfort meal, look no further. I can't believe we have lived in Katy for 5 years and just found this GEM. The chicken fried steak is MASSIVE ( 2 can definitely share), the steak was SO buttery soft and was packed with flavors, while the apple crisp (apple cobbler) was homemade, nice and warm! OMG, and the FRIED GREEN TOMATOES?? You have NO idea how happy I am to FINALLY find a place that makes good fried green tomatoes. This completely made my entire week!!! Inside has tons of seating while the outdoor area has seating, a playground as well as live music on Friday & Saturday nights. I can't wait for fall so we can return for the live music outdoors (was a bit hot for us still). The girl that took our order never returned and we never had the same waiter which made it a bit confusing when we needed something. Otherwise that we had a great experience and can't wait to come back. 100% recommend trying this place out in old Katy!

    Came into town to see Grand babies. From Vegas so was a little skeptical about the 3.7 on Yelp. This place flat out rocks. Every thing was fantastic. Kids meals came out fist and fast which blew me away as this never happens. We will be back most definitely. Don't sleep on this place. Great service, food.

    Philly Cheesesteak Wrap

    Texas tradition is a must hit. The service is out of this world, they're super friendly and accommodating. The food is delicious. The Philly cheesesteak was enormous. My wife's salad was huge and fresh. And it has that down home country feel inside.

    I always see this place packed passing it on the road. I was craving a burger and I figured this place would have a good one since it's always packed. Parking lot was basically full, luckily to find one in the back. It was still fairly busy during a late lunch on a Sunday. A table opened up so we didn't wait. It was kind of stuffy in there, not a lot of air flow. Our waitress and service were great! On to the food: Burger was just ok. It wasn't bad...but it also was nothing to "wow" about. I still don't know why this place is always packed, maybe I ordered the wrong thing.

    My fiancé and I recently moved out to Katy from downtown. We wanted to have a bit more peace and a slower pace of life. Boy, did we hit the jackpot finding this week 2 in Katy! We went with his parents as they were visiting, and were able to get a seat immediately on a Friday night! They had live music going and the gentleman singing was wonderful. The vibe of the place is exactly what we wanted, no frills, authentic. You go for the food, and this place DELIVERS. My fiancé and his father got the Chicken Fried Steak and absolutely loved it! We loved this place so much, we have been back twice since this first visit and we've only been in Katy a month. I have tried the quesadilla and the BLT and both were to die for. Every single time we eat here, we leave happy and full. The prices are reasonable and the portions are huge. Do not skip dessert because they have so many delicious options. 10/10 highly recommend

    Small Chicken Fried Steak

    I had the small chicken fried steak with cream gravy, mashed potatoes with brown gravy, and green beans. The chicken fried steak was crispy on the outside and tender on inside with good flavor even in bites I took without the gravy. The mash potatoes were buttery and full of flavor with the brown gravy. I would say this is one of the better chicken fried steaks I have had in a long time.

    Apple crisp with vanilla ice cream.

    The service was great. Our waitress was attentive and very friendly. The place accomodates large groups. The music is all country. Which is fine with me. Now for the food. My wife ordered the double pork chops. Her two sides were fried green tomatoes and fried okra. I tasted one okra and it was pretty good. She gnawed on the bones but left a little meat on them so I finished the rest. OMG! They were perfectly cooked and seasoned just right. Tender and juicy. I got the fried shrimp. My two sides were house salad and sweet potato fries. The shrimp were cooked just right and they were jumbo shrimp cooked down to extra large. What really impressed me was the breading. It was light. Not that extra thick breading that you have to bite through to find a salad shrimp underneath. Their tea is really good. All beer is $4. Except for Modelo. It's $5. I didn't take pictures of the menu, sorry. We will go back and try some other dishes. Next time, I will take pictures of the menu

My daughter had the cheese burger and chili cheese fries . The service was great. The waitress so nice and on top of it!

    First time visiting and glad we found this place. We saw a Reel on social media. I had no idea It was there and I have lived in the NW Houston for 21 years. Great food and service.

    The BLT wasn't great. Bacon undercooked and barely any tomato. Onion rings were great!

    Nachos. Not. Overpriced and I dont think the chef is not a nacho eater. Otherwise he would be embarrassed.

    Customer Service: 5 Stars Cleanliness: 5 Stars…read moreQuality of Food: 5 Stars Entertainment: music / TV / volume etc. no complaints Restrooms: Clean and don't have a stench of urine or other unpleasant odors. Offers beer, wine, and happy hour The old school Burgers I'm used to: Toast their buns and I love a toasted bun. They also offer Turkey burgers. I've tried the turkey burger once and the meat patty reminded me of a smash burger style post so next time, I think I'll get two. I also customized the burger with bacon, blue cheese, pickles, and a hard fried egg which made for a nice addition of flavors. Queso tasted home made. Cleaned the bowl! Sweet potato fries, let's say they've managed to achieve a nicely cut proportionate fry with the authentic sweet potato flavor and texture that's not soggy.

    I've been on such an old school style cheese burger that I had to check out "Old School Burger"…read more Wife and I headed over for a late lunch and crowd was small. Menu had a lot of burger variations so we selected the BBQ Burger w/ FFs and we split it. Burger came out pretty fast. And it was spot on. Thick patty, crispy bacon and a good BBQ sauce. Patty was still juicy, just like it should. FFs were crispy. Really good meal and just enough for us. We visited with the waitress and she said the restaurant was her parents. I had noticed that they do breakfast tacos and papusas. She said he mother was from El Salvador and the papusas were legit. Guess what I'm having the next time. Hearing their story was great - nice to hear someone succeed. They have beer n wine and a happy hr. If you like old school burger you got to try Old School Burger.
