    This place has just about anything you might be hungry for plus snacks you can take for later. Grill, comfort food, loads of drinks, fruit, chips, cookies, everything. Service is friendly and the space is clean. There is a long wait at the "Sizzle" counter. It was a Saturday, not sure if that makes a difference.

Made with love type of food! The kind of restaurant that has cooks in the back that woke up and came to work super happy kind of cooks! And guess what ? Besides the cooks being top tier, let's talk about the amazing service from these genuinely nice waiters/ waitresses, they are super nice, fast and just giving very nice vibes! Ok now let's talk food? Yeah the food here is DELICIOUS! Been coming here for years and I'll be coming until the day I die! Oh and let's not forget the BEST PIES IVE EVER HAD! Now I've had pies from "house of pies, flying saucer, HEB ETC. nah son! These pies are the best! No other place competes! If you're from Houston or visiting from another city or state make sure you stop by the Dot coffee shop! You won't regret it!

Construction…read morein the area is heavy, and quite a bit of traffic, parking was packed, yet we did find a spot close to the door. Service has changed since last I have been here many years ago. In the past they would bring out a bread basket, as a free appetizer like how some mexican restaurants bring out chips and salsa, however, they dont seem to do that here anymore. Service at the table was mediocre, our waitress took our drink order and on the way over, the waitress was spilling the drinks over the floor on the way to our table. After our waitress took our order, my gf did not get the mayo on the side as she had asked, and after we received our food, our waitress never came around to check on us, didn't refill our drinks or anything. The place was very loud, louder than visiting waffle house. I was trying to have a conversation with my gf sitting just across the table from one another, and we were having to literally yell at one another just to hear what each other were saying. My gf did state that the sandwich she ordered was a big sandwich, and was more than she could finish. Once we were ready to go, our waitress still hadn't been around to check on us. So I had to flag down someone else, to get us some to go boxes, and our check. Low and behold, when I was ready to checkout, the waitress appears out of nowhere, after all this time, I'm guessing because she thought she was going to get a good tip. I'm sorry, waitstaff only get a great tip from me, once and if they perform a great job duty, and this was not the case in this matter. Maybe, better luck next time, maybe Papas needs to hire better waitstaff worth hiring and keeping.

    20/10. Every. Single. Time…read more I don't even look at the menu anymore. Fried AND grilled pork chops, cheese eggs, and potatoes. That's my order and I'm standing on it. The pork chops are the star. One fried, one grilled because why choose? The fried chop has that crispy, seasoned crust, while the grilled chop brings a completely different flavor. Cheese eggs always hit, potatoes do exactly what they're supposed to do, and somehow the whole plate comes together every single time. I've been to The Breakfast Klub more than once, and consistency matters to me. They have never missed. Some places you visit when you're in town. This is one I make sure I get to when I'm in Houston. 20/10. Palate don't lie. ‍

My daughter had the sampler platter with eggs, bacon, sausage, a biscuit, and grits. She loved everything on her plate (especially the biscuit!) but was very underwhelmed by the grits. I had them too and they were pretty bland and needed to be a little less thick. That said, the portion sizes are nice! One meal was plenty to split for my 2 kids. My husband and I split the Katfish and grits along with the red velvet waffles and chicken wings. The catfish tasted great, though it got a little soggy from everything else on the plate. The red velvet waffles were delicious, rich, flavorful, and a hit with my husband and I (and then my girls who were eyeballing my plate.) The chicken wings that came with them were crispy, seasoned, and hot, which is a winning combination. Needless to say, I would highly recommend stopping by! And a quick tip for anyone visiting: try to get there before 9:00 AM. I've heard that it gets lively and crowded fast, but going early makes it much easier to get a table.

Cruiser Coffee (Organic) - That's some bitter coffee. It's not sweet, but it has a residual candy-like taste that resembles something I can't quite recall. It's also strong--like it goes as hard as my Vietnamese coffee. My eyes started twitching about half a cup in. Love it. Fresh Orange Juice - OH YEAH. My orange juice connoisseur BFF gave it the thumbs-up of approval. We asked for a glass of ice, and it elevated the drink. Steak and Green Eggs (BFF) - Wow. Those green eggs--what's in them? What is in them? Delicious with buttered toast. The potatoes were perfectly crisp, and that steak? Seasoned so well, super fragrant, and moist. For a breakfast steak, it's great. Admittedly, it was lathered in butter. Annie's Low-Fat, High Protein Burrito - Not my favorite. It tasted a bit too healthy after that incredible steak, but as the flavor lingered, it grew on me. My favorite part was definitely the beans, which came through exceptionally clean. Lox Platter w. Everything Bagel - Exactly what the menu promised with high-quality ingredients. They were VERY generous with the capers, and I'm grateful for that. Refreshing, even with the two containers of cream cheese (I only used one). Their menu is so simple, but they've truly mastered what they serve. The service was very attentive, and our waiter was energetic and humorous. The atmosphere was pleasant and comforting--high-end without the snobby undertone. We'll definitely be back.

It been a Houston institution since 1999. Walking into K&G's can be quite overwhelming on the first visit. There's just so much to see, be it Autographs, Caricatures, Playbill's or their delicious cakes, treats, breads, and Pickles. However, the real overwhelming experience is the menu. Anything you could possibly want is listed on the menu. I recommend looking t it online before coming, just so you can have an idea of what you might want to eat. My dad(96) and I are frequent visitors and we always seem to get the open faced roast beef, which is stacked high and there is always left overs for eating at home the next day. The pickles are a fan favorite for me, and I tend to devour several of them. This visit I decided to try the fried fish sandwich (made with halibut) with onion rings and french fries and my friend, a Houston native who had never been here, went for the Schleppy Joe with onion rings. These sandwiches were stunning and wonderful. I saved half for to go so I could have their classic New York Cheesecake... the best in the city. The entire dining experience was top notch, exactly the experience I always have. Ziggy knows how to make the customers dining experience an "experience", I have never had a bad one, from the service down to the cleanliness of the entire place. In this review I want to give a special shout out to Beverly, our server, as she was amazing and whom I recommend. She practically read our minds and was an absolute star. Thank you, Beverly, for the fine service that was speedy with a smile!

The waiter was very kind and friendly, and seemed to be well-known and liked by many of the patrons he passed by. It felt like a very family-friendly place. I don't remember seeing anything extravagant or out of the ordinary on the menu, but everything looked good if you were looking for breakfast or lunch. I decided to go with a traditional breakfast plate: two eggs, bacon, potatoes, and a pancake, with some fresh coffee! Everything went down quite easily and quickly, so it must have been good! I'd definitely go here again, when I'm in the vicinity, and maybe stop by Seismique afterwards, since it's right behind the London Cafe!
