    Although I still enjoy this mom and pop bagel cafe, their bagels haven't been as fluffy. Nevertheless, I love the atmosphere. It's very chilled. My favorite is their sunrise bagel with whatever bagel I'm in the mood for. All their selections are on the side. My least favorite is the one with salsa (cannot remember the name) but it's always so watery that I rather just get either blueberry or cinnamon raisin bagel with plain cream cheese.

    Ruben sandwich with thousand island dressing, sauerkraut, and melted cheese.  Chive cream cheese and a variety of bagel chips comes with.

    Finally a real bagel deli! Bagels are perfect! Light crisp in outside and hearty flavor. Absolutely the perfect bagel. The have poppyseed and salt flavors for you Nee Yorkers. Also many other flavors, my fav being the everything bagel. Had the Reuben on a poppyseed bagel sandwich, fresh meats, healthy portion with some bagel chips and cream cheese side with pickles. It was so good I had to heat half before taking the photo. If you're not used to a bagel deli, go try a sandwich. You won't be disappointed.

    No wait when we went but it quickly filled up- the bagels had a great crunch and then chew so super yummy. -Katy commuter: bagel w/ cream cheese and coffee(I got the blueberry with plain cream cheese) -Egg bagel(softest they have) with bacon, egg and cheddar-'sunrise' w/bacon The cream cheese was very light and tasty and they didn't skimp on it We shall return! Parking and seating were ample- seemed like a lot of online orders were going on.

    I've seen this place before but had never stopped. This place was popping this morning. An amazing spread of bagels and cream cheese. They have breakfast sandwiches. They also have lunch menu that looked tasty. It was so good. I can't believe I've never been. We had the Sunrise bagel sandwich with bacon. Mine on an onion bagel and his on an everything bagel. Had a mango berry breeze. It was so good and refreshing. They had a few tables outside. And quite a bit of seating inside.

    a variety of coffee machines

    I appreciate the warmth and comfort of the Bagel Cafe. This place is noticeably the real deal with friendly service, tasty bagels and good coffee. I especially enjoy their cheddar bagel yet find all their options perfectly textured and flavorful. I look forward to returning.

    Located in the Katy strip mall on Mason and Kingsland. The place is cafe style crowded on the weekend with family and kid that are leaving taekwondo. Great service, everyone in there is nice. The bagels are fresh and they go quick, what I love about the place if you like a certain kind you can call. The smoothies are fresh. This is a good spot for fresh bagels and cream cheese.

    Bagel selection!

    Bagel Cafe has been an INSTITUTION in Katy for years! So so so good. Great selection of Bagels, sandwiches and even baked goods. I think there are one or two more locations now as well. Cypress and not sure where else. Great little hidden gem. Plus, they back our local first responders!

    Half dozen bagels and got an extra bagel for free

    The customer service is on point! The bagels are delicious, crispy on the outside and soft and airy on the inside. The cinnamon almond cream cheese is amazing! I've always seen the bagel cafe on yelp and finally got to try it out. I'll definitely be back to try other menu items!

    The bagels are fresh. The service was good. Very casual spot. Limited meat options for breakfast sandwich if you don't eat pork.

    Bagels are delicious. Soft and chewy on the inside. Spreads are good. My favorite was the seasonal pumpkin.

    This was my first experience ever at a Portillo's. And wow! I have been missing out!…read more This location is humongous! The parking lot is huge. The inside has a ton of seating. We arrived on a Friday around 12:30pm and it was fairly busy. Many of the tables were occupied. The lady at the register was helpful and patient with us as this was our first time. We ordered the chicken tenders, fries, cheese sauce, Italian Beef and Sausage sandwich with sweet peppers, onion rings, and chocolate cake shakes (a must I've heard). Everything was delicious! My husband's beef and sausage sandwich took a little bit of time because they were making it fresh which was much appreciated. The chicken strips were good too. I got the comeback sauce and the Giardiniera sauce and both were really good. The cheese sauce was hot and super tasty. The chocolate cake shakes were delicious. Mr. Black Fine came around to each table to ensure everything was going okay. We told him it was our first time at a Portillo's and he couldn't have been friendlier. He also came around with chocolate cake shake samples, which was awesome. This place is yummy and the vibes were awesome. Can't recommend this location more! I hope to be able to come back if we are ever in the Houston area again.

    Had wanted to try this place for a while. Ordered chili cheese dogs, onion rings, and milkshake…read more The milkshake was very good. The onion rings were over battered. The biggest surprise was the chili. It was not very good, and had beans in it. I would give the dogs a C-. Next time (if there is one) I would try the burgers.

    They proudly advertise having "the best bread in the business" and I must say, their breads are…read moreindeed the best in a franchise setting. I especially love their Signature Garlic Herb bread. It's toasted perfectly where the outside has a slight crisp around the edges and the inside is soft and fluffy. It's really GOOD bread. I definitely prefer it over the likes of something like Subway, Jersey Mike's, etc. It's nice that they offer different sizes of sandwiches. There's the Nug (4"), Pinner (8"), and the largest size is the Blunt (12"). I ordered the Nug. It's just the right size to satisfy my appetite without leaving me feeling heavy afterward. I also love and truly appreciate the diverse vegetarian options on the menu. They're not just the basic boring raw veggies combinations either. It's super casual and laid back inside. Love their fun decorations. The staff are very friendly and helpful. There's a bar in the back with a large TV, allowing you to enjoy sports while sipping on a cold beer or cocktail. Glad they are in the area. For sure I will be a regular here. Just thinking about their bread makes me hungry.

    Placed my order online and was able to walk in, grab it and walk out…read more Although the restaurant was empty when I walked in, I was still greeted and given full customer service while picking up my order. I must say, although the customer service was great, the sub didn't really taste like anything. It was flavorless. This is the second time it's happened. But it's all good. I was still able to finish it. I'll still come back and maybe try something different next time.

    Ok, this is the 2nd time for me. Got the 1lb little Philly. Service is good. No issue there…read more The cheese steak is good. NOT better than Pat's or Gino's in Philadelphia.... Pat's and Gino's are a high A.... Tastee is a solid mid B. STILL GOOD. Would I go back? Yup. This is probably a good once a month kind of place. Minor gripe. Bread could be better. Mine felt like it was a little stale but re-heated with steam.... If they had a better loaf of bread and like 20% more cheese, it would be a solid A.

    Different Kinds of Cheesesteaks--This One Deserves Its Own Lane…read more I think people really need to acknowledge that there are different types of cheesesteaks. Not all of them are made to be compared--some are just totally different styles, and that's not a bad thing. I've been wanting to try this spot for a while after seeing the debates about who has the best cheesesteak in Houston. The only thing that held me back was the location. I finally made the trip--and I'm glad I did. First off: customer service. Let's be real--food trucks sometimes don't deliver on this, but that was not the case here. Super friendly and attentive. It made a big difference. What I tried: * Chicken cheesesteak with shrimp - Delicious. Messy, cheesy, and indulgent. If you're someone who likes your cheesesteaks loaded with toppings like lettuce or tomato, this might not be your thing. But if you're into a bold, no-frills kind of sub? You'll love it. * Philly steak eggroll - Fire. * Fries - These were wild. Battered like fried chicken, perfectly crispy. I might honestly come back just for the fries. * Corned beef - Served Midwest-style, and the meat was on point. Tender and flavorful. Bottom line: I really enjoyed this place. It's not trying to be like everyone else--and that's exactly why it works. If I'm ever in the area again, I'd absolutely return.
