Been going to various Willie's locations since they opened. The one on 1960 was our "go to" until they closed during COVID. We loved their food but unfortunately we have seen a decline in almost everything. Visited the Spring location yesterday for lunch and was quite disappointed in not only the shrimp and catfish dinner but they must have changed the onion ring recipe, which was always a favorite. The minute you picked one up the breading fell off even before a bite. Fish was super thin, my BF was questioning whether or not it was actually catfish. Shrimp were over cooked! The iced tea was so weak it resembled water with perhaps a hint of a teabag. The only saving Grace was the jalapeños! Was having trouble scanning my receipt for the Willies Reward points and BF said "why worry about that and why would we want to return?" read more

Service was very friendly & accommodating for our first time visit . We tried the Chipotle Shaved Ribeye tacos. Very good! Cole slaw good and French Fries were awesome! I'm a sucker for hot crispy Fries with a soft interior. Seasoned perfectly. I liked the clean casual vibe. We will be back. I want to try their redfish & burgers! Thanks for your time read more

We ordered shrimp & sausage gumbo and onion rings to start. The gumbo had a foul taste, we simply could not eat it. It had poor flavor, tasted as if it was a watery broth with loads of sodium and left a terrible taste in our mouths. The onion rings tasted as if they were cooked with other fried foods and rubbery, we each ate half of one. It was so disappointing we canceled the entree. The server saw we did not eat anything and did not acknowledge it or ask anything. We were insulted at the entire situation and left and paid full price, even though the food ordered was barely touched due to poor quality. The initial order taker was friendly and the atmosphere seemed fine, but the food was simply not edible and we left highly disappointed. read more

Willie's Grill & Icehouse - Shrimp & Sausage Gumbo - very bad flavor and left a horrible taste in our mouth. We only took one sip and could not eat another bite. - American Near Me - Spring, Texas

Had a great time, amazing food and our server (JoJo) Jordan E was super sweet and very attentive! We be back! read more

A good "quick service" restaurant- that is always a go to for a quick bite- love the burger, grilled shrimp, bbq baked potatoe, salads and all their fries! The nachos are ok (think more Americanized / less authentic). Always have good service and enjoy eating here. My husband would give Willie's 5 stars as it's one of his favorite places to go! They have a large patio, alcohol and are very kid friendly which is helpful for my small family. Perfect for a night of eating out, when you don't want to get super dressed up and don't want fast food or after a long night of games at the park. read more

Not my first visit to this spot, but was my first visit ordering crawfish... I only ordered 3lbs because I wanted to try them. Crawfish was served very hot and well seasoned, but not spicy at all. Corn & potatoes are an extra charge as well as mushrooms & onions. I only wanted potatoes & mushrooms and the clerk doubled it as I didn't want corn or onions. The place was very clean and the server was friendly and attentive. The margaritas are good and only $4. The Philly cheesesteak my boyfriend ordered was mediocre... overall a pleasant experience but nothing to "Wow" over. I would definitely have the crawfish here again, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it... read more

I'm writing this review because we had an amazing server. Sandi was attentive and so kind. She gave us a timeline on when our food would be out and the order. Our food was tasty except the "street corn". I can't believe that they would send this to people to eat. It smelled like feet and you couldn't taste anything but burned flavoring. read more

Willie's Grill & Icehouse - So gross! - American Near Me - Spring, Texas

Always great food and service, they always have good recommendations. We never leave hungry and it's a very casual place that makes you feel like home. read more

Very disappointing. We were visiting family and decided to go here. My wife had the Chipotle Ribeye Tacos and they were served cold. The meat had a strange texture and were difficult to eat. She just left them on the table. I had the wings, Scorpion and Hot Cheeto. I ordered 10 and wanted 1/2 & 1/2 - I got 6 Scorpion and 4 Hot Cheeto. I love wings and the Scorpion was hot but not flavorful and the Hot Cheeto were barely dusted with the flavor. Just sad to say since I live for Willy's during crawfish season. read more

Half hour waiting for food. Main came out before salads which (never showed up ) along with chips and queso and salsa (which also never made it out) mildly warm sandwiches. read more

Willie's Grill & Icehouse - Chicken club heavy on the lettuce .... - American Near Me - Spring, Texas

It was okay. The portions weren't that big and the food wasn't seasoned they great. It wasn't my favorite.

Only had one person taking orders - waited in line for 20 minutes and there were only 3 parties ahead of us. Ordered a chips and queso. Queso was super runny/watery. Server never brought us plates for it (there were five of us sharing it). Ordered a BLTA (bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado) without the "BLT" sauce. Received a BLTA with the sauce all over it. Sent it back, new sandwich had ZERO avocado. Server offered to bring me a side of avocado. See picture of what I received. This location is very poorly managed. Emailed a manager and he is working to rectify our experience. Will give them another try. read more

Willie's Grill & Icehouse - Rotten avocado - American Near Me - Spring, Texas

Skip this place. The women's bathroom was disgusting. Super dirty and smelled awful. I would fire their cleaning crew. Had their chicken Caesar salad. Chicken was overcooked, and i think they poured a half bottle of dressing on the salad. Nothing positive about today's experience. read more

1. Service - I'm writing this review at the request of my waitress, Lynn B. I'm not getting paid by her, and we're not even friends. If you do happen to come into this location, ask for her because I absolutely enjoyed my dining experience with Lynn. She makes you feel very welcomed. As if she is your Aunt and you are just visiting her house on a nice summer weekend. Lol. Ok, maybe I exaggerated a little, but she is by far the best customer service I have ever received at any Willie's Ice House. Management should definitely recognize her as a star employee. She was very attentive, made sure our drinks were always filled, and that we were always ok. When you come in, order at the front, and pay at the table. Find your own seat, and your waitress will be right there with you. 2. Price - about $10 a person? 3. Ambiance - when you walk into this place, you feel as if you are in Louisiana somewhere. Is that the vibe I'm supposed to get? I'm not sure, but that's how I feel. Dress code here is casual. 4. I recommend the FULLY LOADED BAKE POTATO. It's very filling for a grown man. I've also had their CATFISH POBOY, which is also very good. 5. Cleanliness - clean restrooms and dining area. This is a new facility, so super clean. I would definitely come back here, and I recommend them for cajun food. read more

Willie's at 5pm on a Thursday provided a quiet spot to relax and enjoy dinner with the kiddos. The youngest ordered the mini corn dogs with fries. They were seasoned nicely and priced well. My son got the Buffalo sauced wings with celery and he said they were pretty good. My teen girls each ordered the pulled pork sandwich which comes with a jalapeño slaw. They liked it. I wasn't in the mood for their menu items so I just got a salad which was simple enough and made me feel somewhat healthy. The waitress was wonderful. Didn't bother us, just checked on a couple things throughout the hour she served us. The restaurant opened up their garage like doors so everything felt open and fresh with the cool but gentle autumn breeze blowing through. It really was quite relaxing. You can sit inside or out and catch a view of the waterway in the Grand Parkway shopping area. It really is a prime spot for dining and relaxing. The food just doesn't wow me here. Plus I think it's kind of weird to place your order when you walk in, which the cashier writes down. Then she/he gives the order back to you and you go find a table. When the waitress/waiter comes, he/she takes your order and confers again with you about what you've ordered. Then the order is placed. Why not just call in the order upon giving it to the cashier?!? It has a fast food vibe when you do that -placing your order with the cashier while looking at the massive menu board behind them. But then you sit down and feel waited on like a diner. It's just odd. Never seen that before. read more

When we first arrived it started rough. We waited thirty minutes for our waitress to see us. When that didn't happen, we finally went to the front. Luis M came to the rescue. He explained the confusion, apologized, and made it more than right. We left feeling that he's a great representation of that restaurant. We felt cared for, listened to, and validated. Excellent customer service and excellent food at the end of the day - good wings as well. read more

I went here for dinner tonight. The service was great. The reason for the 3 stars is the cleanliness and food. Take a look at that drink tower in the front.... So gross. I can only imagine what the back of the house looks like. The drinks also need to be calibrated. My mom sent two drinks back. Moms fish was greasy and both her fries and my husbands were cold.. My food was ok. read more

Gotta love Willie's! Every time we come in, we have great experience with the food and service! Tonight Braeden went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. My mom is allergic to just about everything, but he made her feel comfortable by making sure her order was perfect! Shrimp tacos were great with the chips and salsa. read more

We had a really rough experience the first time. Manager read my review and decided to send me two $25 gift cards for all the trouble. So we decided to come back and give it a try. To find out, the gift cards that the manager sent me both do not work, they had Zero balance on both of them. Ha ha fooled me once but you're not fooling me twice. I can't believe after talking to the regional manager telling him I did not want the gift cards and him insisting that he sends them to me and please give our restaurant another shot. Would have zero balance.What save the night, we had one of the most amazing server I ever had waited on me. I added a picture of his name tag. But I would have to say the hamburger and the fried jalapeños were actually better this time. From my experience. I probably will not come back. But you might wanna try for yourself read more

Great gumbo with a huge portion and great service close to home! I highly recommend Willie's!

Fun atmosphere and great waitresses! Great food!! It's become a favorite of ours. Recommend it!!

Hubby wanted to go here. It was terrible! We waited in line to order. Hubby ordered the combo fish. I ordered the nachos. They were just chips with queso poured on top. No sour cream or salsa or jalapeños. Lettuce on the side. Won't be back. read more

I am so mad at myself for forgetting about this amazing place. It is so hard to please everyone's taste buds....crawfish for my kid, burgers for the other kid, and a place where everyone can be happy for me is good enough! I ended up ordering the chicken tenders because, why not!? I am a grown woman and I will always love their tenders, however as we awaited our food I ordered a sharable gumbo for my daughter and I and as much as I hate to admit it, it was probably one of the best gumbo I've had in a long time! I think the cooks are true Cajuns after that Shrimp and sausage gumbo. As a matter of fact, I am craving some right now! I can't believe I never brought my family here before and I felt like a failure to my kids since I enjoyed coming to the location on 1960 and Stuebner Airline (RIP) when I was a youngin'. Not only did we all enjoyed our food, the service and the hours (since many places close early) but what my family loved most of all was the outdoor seating. They enjoyed the wonderful weather, the easy access to the trail around the pond and the layout. I am so glad that we all ended up adding Willie's on one of our local fave places, brings back memories. read more

The catfish was very good and tater tots and French fries were hot . Cold slaw my wife did not like cabbage too finely ground up . . Would go back tacos would be good to try read more

Amazing service from Megan. Wish we had room for dessert. We will definitely return for some perfectly prepared food. The sweet potato fries and onion rings we not overcooked and flavorful. The burgers and chicken were juicy but not undercooked. I ordered an adult beverage to go. The kids had a blast playing in the sandbox! Fun for kids and parents alike!!! read more

Omg Love this place and our waitperson Andrea was AWESOME! Will definitely visit again.

Consistently good food (sans the tacos). And the most affordable drinks in town. Always enjoy going here.

We had the blackened grilled shrimp and fried cheese sticks which were both excellent! The service was great! This was the first time we had Corrianne (CoCo) as a server and she is top-notch. She is pleasant and attentive. Jeff the manager came by and greeted us as he usually does when time is permitting. Willie's in our opinion has the best-fried cheese sticks hands down. We have been going to this location weekly since the day it opened with no issues ever and lots of great experiences. read more

Went to Willie's on 99 yesterday, horrible experience! I ordered a crispy chicken club sandwich and it was inedible! Sloppily plated, greasy, wet, couldn't pick it up to eat. I thought it had scrambled eggs sliding out but I think it was cheese. The chicken was NOT CRISPY, but stringy and wet, half way off the bun, bacon was tough! I asked for silver wear to try and cut it, but they only had forks, NO KNIVES! It was too wet and messy to pick up. I sent it back, told the server I didn't want it. She came back and offered to bring me another or something else but I declined, I ate my fries, hubby ate his burger, we paid check and left. I still do not know what all was on that sandwich, but it was weird looking. read more

Willie's Grill & Icehouse - My meal - American Near Me - Spring, Texas

This place was just not good. The fried pickles were sliced super thin so all you taste is batter. The pickles need to be cut a lot thicker so you can actually taste them. I got the grilled shrimp poboy and it was inedible. The shrimp were burned and that is all you could taste. Every single bite tasted charred. It was bad. The fries were decent though. I do not like the fact that you have to pay the same price for a water cup as you do for soda or tea. Nearly every restaurant out there gives out water for free. I've never seen a place charge for it. read more

Willie's Grill & Icehouse - Grilled Shrimp poboy. Ends of the shrimp are charred. Completely inedible - American Near Me - Spring, Texas

This location is pretty consistent and have been satisfied in every visit. Every visit being about 50 times

Order from the counter. Then go to the table where a server takes your order from the paper to go ring it in Then brings it to you. Takes a long time to get food this way. To many steps are taken to ring in your food. 11 dollars for 6 shrimp and some fries. Cole slaw was just the mix no dressing. Food was mediocre at best. Will not be back. read more

Amazing Food and Even BETTER Service!!! I came to Willies on this rainy day and after a long week, it is just what I needed. The food filled me up and my server was attentive and had a warm presence. She promptly took my order, had a wonderful smile and made sure my food was out in a timely manner. She is on top of her game and so was the food. Best service I've had in a while. Next time you're at Willies, ask for CELESTE! read more

Spent $50 to get this delivered. Willies corporation needs to be offering their businesses better quality of food. Been eating Willies for 20 years and even under the same management at multiple locations, the food wasn't this poor in taste and quality. As this franchise rushes to open their doors, the quality of food is diminishing. The managers do everything they can to compensate for the problem but Willies needs to step up for their employees serving customers under their name. Help the brand, Willies. read more

Willie's Grill & Icehouse - Bad representation of seafood sampler - American Near Me - Spring, Texas

Honestly placed this order because I wanted peach cobbler and I could not have been more disappointed. I don't know what this is, but it isn't cobbler, and there's maybe 3 pieces of peach. It's a slab of what tastes like sweet biscuit dough. The bulk of a peach cobbler should be...peaches. This is just...i don't even know what. The rest of my order was decent but this was enough to spoil my meal. read more
