Awesome!! Beyond words
Wow ! It was great
I recommend their brisket gumbo
Delicious. Friendly. Open late and accommodating.
Had a bit of an unfortunate experience at Graze. I ordered the Trifecta Platter, which includes a choice of three meats. One of my selections was the Smokehouse Chicken, listed as a half bird. However, what I received was clearly only a quarter chicken.
When I asked about it, I was told that the platter only includes a quarter portion, not the half as listed. I understand that this might seem like a small detail, but it’s confusing and should really be made clearer on the menu.
When I raised this concern with the manager, the response felt defensive rather than helpful, which made the experience a bit disappointing.
That said, the rest of my family enjoyed their meals, so I’m leaving 3 stars. I just wish there was a little more transparency and better communication.
It’s hard for me to write this because as a fellow Jew, I truly believe in supporting Jewish businesses. That said, I feel it’s important to share my honest experience so improvements can be made.
First, when I sat down to eat, the staff started sweeping the floor and were pushing the dirt right toward my table. I waited patiently, assuming they’d stop—but they didn’t. It’s really unappetizing to eat while dust and debris are being swept in your direction. I understand the need to clean between customers, but this should be done with more awareness and care.
Second, the portion sizes are shockingly small. I paid $14 for guacamole, and the portion was tiny. On top of that, it didn’t even taste homemade—it seemed like prepackaged guacamole. At that price point, it should absolutely be made fresh in-house. You can really taste the difference.
Third, the burger was disappointing. The bun completely overpowered the meat—it felt like I was eating a bread sandwich with a bit of burger in it. The bread-to-meat ratio needs serious adjusting.
Lastly, I tried the Santa Fe salad with brisket, and personally, it just didn’t work for me. The brisket was oily, and it clashed with the crisp salad ingredients. Also, there were jalapeños in the salad, which I didn’t expect or see mentioned anywhere on the menu.
I’m leaving 3 stars because I believe in the potential of this place and I want to see it succeed—but some key things really need attention.
House burger was great!
Absolutely delicious food! The service is very quick, and the staff are very friendly. I most notably like the “Dirty Nachos.” A very nice dish for the fam!

It used to be much better, recently all burgers are burned, you can even smell the burn, very dangerous and unhealthy!

Graze in the 5 Towns is a true gem. The service is absolutely amazing—friendly, attentive, and efficient. Every time I’ve been there, the food comes out right away, which is a huge plus.
The menu is packed with so many delicious options that if I could, I would eat everything on it. Every dish I’ve tried has been fantastic, making it tough to pick a favorite. Whether you’re a regular or visiting for the first time, Graze never disappoints.
Highly recommend giving Graze a try. You won’t be disappointed!
