Tel-Wink Grill is a well-known diner famous for its large portions of classic American food. The menu includes breakfast favorites like french toast, omelets, and the classic meatloaf with gravy, cornbread, and spinach. This old-school place has a cozy atmosphere and offers daily specials, with breakfast served all day. The parking lot adds to its charm, though potholes are present, so drivers should be careful. The layout can change each visit because there are no strict lines—once one person parks, others make up spots. Walking in, it feels like stepping back in time, with nothing modern about it. The restaurant has a large dining room and counter seating. The staff is experienced and friendly, often with older servers who do their job with a smile. Customers praise the affordable prices, delicious fried catfish, and the satisfying "greasy spoon" experience. Many mention the generous portions, flavorful recipes, and the nostalgic atmosphere that keeps people coming back. The restaurant has been a Houston staple since the 1940s and continues to be a favorite for those seeking a true diner experience.
