“I visited the cafe late evening and the food was fantastic. I had a delicious shrimp taco with some well cooked wings. I had two servers that showed exemplary service. Cam and Cleo made my last minute experience in this friendly cafe so much more worth it. Will definitely be returning in the near future!“

“Tried this place after it was recommended. First visit was a bit underwhelming. Everything was seasoned and tasted ok but portion sizes were small for the price paid. The combo came with two small catfish strips, not whole filets. The shrimp appeared to be fried tempura style which leads me to believe the seafood was pre-packaged frozen. The combo didn't come with any traditional sides like hush puppies, Cole slaw etc;. The menu is extensive and a bit all over the place. There's everything from wings, fried rice, crawfish hot dogs, polish sausage, boudain balls, there's daiquiris, desserts and too much to name. It's like it doesn't know what it wants to be. Again, what I had tasted good but it wasn't worth the $28 I paid. Seating is very limited, the place holds maybe less than 20 people. Not sure if they're structuring themselves as a Doordash destination but it's rather small. I may give them another try just because it's close to home. Again, it wasn't bad but the overall restaurant them is sort of confusing. It's like Cajun, Chinese, Burger fusion. I'll bring my son next time and get his opinion.“

“i had such wonderful service last night! my server, lolo, was absolutely amazing and honestly the sweetest person ever. she literally had us cracking up all night from her amazing personality. i’ll so be back to get that dubai chocolate pizookie and hopefully she’s my server again 🫶“

“Visited OMG Baked Potatoes at my work site. The staff was very friendly and efficient. They had a great selection of combinations. I had the Oxtail baked potato. It was delicious. The potato was big enough for 2 meals. The ox tails were tender and flavorful. The food was hot and fresh. Definitely worth another visit!!“

“Our server Amber was fantastic today! We come regularly and last visit almost made us stop because of poor service.“

“Had a great time celebrating Billy Vaughn's 75 th birthday“

“The food here is always fresh, and I absolutely love their fried chicken sandwiches, every one I’ve tried has been excellent (especially the Nashville). Service is consistently friendly, everything is made to order, and it’s always delicious. I find myself coming here at least once a week.“

“Great food, nice atmosphere!“

“They have such great food and beverages“

“I had the bacon egg cheese breakfast sandwich and it was delicious!“

“My husband stopped at your place on the way home from work tonight. Those were the best fries I think I’ve ever had!! Everything was very tasty. The burger smelled and tasted just like the ones we grill at home. We will be back!“

“Cat Daddy's Food truck came to the office for lunch. I ordered Fish/Shrimp with okra. Everything was seasoned and cooked great. Cooked fresh while you wait. A definite return is in order for the pork chops and chicken wings next time. Price is right.“

“This restaurant is fabulous! Great food! Great staff! I give this restaurant 5 Stars! Stop by and tell them Manny sent you.“

“So glad we were introduced to this little gem! It has a down home, nostalgic, feel to it. The service and food were excellent; and, prices are very reasonable. Hubby had a Bacon Burger and I had the Ribeye Quesadillas; he enjoyed his burger and the quesadillas were to die for! 🤤😋 Seating is limited inside, however, there is seating available on the outside patio; also they close at 2p.“

“We happened upon Alex last year and it has become a favorite with us and our family. Italian inspired menu - but I have enjoyed everything I have had - fish steak scallops - I have recently been ordering what ever the daily special is - always a winner! Also perhaps the best brussel sprouts I have ever had. Do not sleep on their wine menu and bar. Really outstanding selection of bourbons and quality cocktails. Don’t let the exterior fool you - this is one of the Houston area hidden gems. Fine dining in a strip mall is Missouri City - yup that is exactly what it is.“

“Dariannnnnnn made this outing for me and my sis a great one! From the time he came to the table to introduce himself up until the time we left… CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS ON POINT, you can tell that he had a bubbly down to earth personality and being nice is just him. & his recommendations were on point with the appetizers the smoked chicken wings 10/10!!! Our food came out hot and fresh.. he was attentive to our refills and just checking in without us having to call him over. When you visit this location be sure to look for him…“

“Great place love it.“

“This was such a great experience! The jello injectors and drinks are the best and my server gave me such good suggestions! I think her name was Ariel, such a sweetheart. I didn't know what I wanted but she recommended the Frog Juice daiquiri and boy did it have me leaping like a frog 😂. She also suggested some pre rolls as well and it was tempting but I honestly just came for the drinks lol. The only thing was I do wish they had food again. It definitely made it worth the trip more! Thanks again and tell that server I will be back!“

“I eat there at least three times a week. Great good and service. NO surprises. Many of the locals eat there. If you don't like it, please leave it for us.,“

“It was four minutes till opening, we had walked in man I was with is 80yrs old. Told we couldn't sit at a table or bar just to wait outside on bench. We left not at all happy couldn't believe we couldn't stay inside. Forget their Rules, we ate at a more welcoming restaurant.“

I ordered the 3 tenders with fries and a drink. The food was hot and fresh. Everything was good. Before leaving I ordered another to go for my son. Thank you Christina and crew for an awesome first time visit.“

“Always on point and delicious!“

“My waitress Ashley was so nice and funny. Food came fast and was great!“

“This place has been here since the 90s, but I started going here in the 2010s. The main food thing here is fried chicken and french fries which are good, I go for the chicken tenders which are always served fresh. There are other options like fried rice, mashed potatoes, and lemon cake. At one point they sold a chicken tender/shrimp salad, I loved the chicken tender salad. The prices are fair so if you want a good value for your money try this place, you will find something to like. And also they got 1 of the best Kool Aids, OH YEAH!“
