“There are many upscale dining choices and steakhouses in The Woodlands. Tris separates itself by elevating the experience in most aspects. Tris makes special occasions like anniversaries feel special. Other restaurants in The Woodlands have decided to put corporate customers and moneyed interests over local couples who may only go once a year.“

“I've been to Schilleci's a couple of times now and I always enjoy the food, experience, service, and ambiance. On today's visit we enjoyed the seafood gumbo. A word of note: the roux is a thicker tomatoe paste which I do enjoy, but mention because not all gumbos are the same. This is def more of that creole roux. We also had the mussels in why white wine cream sauce which were on the special and they were fantastic. I'll def be back when I'm in the mood for some Cajun spice.“

“Our waitress was a bit slow took forever to order. But worth the wait. The fish and chips is the best around. The apple cole slaw was very interesting never heard of it but the taste is out of this world phenomenal. Since I got home last night I’m trying to find a copy cat recipe for that slaw it’s so good and crisp. Artichoke dip 5⭐️. The burger was not a great burger. With the caramelized onions and mushrooms, Bree and aioli you would think the flavor would be there but definitely missing seasoning or something“

“This was our first time here and we had a great experience. When we first went to the counter we told the girl it was our first time. (I really wish we could remember her name) She immediately started telling us about the menu and telling us what was most popular and her favorite items. She was very welcoming and knowledgeable. We had the crushed Avocado Toast, I got the chicken enchiladas and my husband got the Mother Earth bowl with steak and shrimp added. We also got a side of macaroni as the girl said it was one of her favorites. I would say I wasn’t impressed with the drink selections. The teas had zero sugar and the lemonade had a ton (but we were warned that when we were ordering). All of the food was great. We will be back!“

My friend had the guac w/chips. The only thing that could’ve made the experience better is the guac size. It was too small. But overall a fantastic experience.“

“First Watch is a really great place for a healthy breakfast! Based on other's reviews, we came here and really enjoyed a nice breakfast, even though it was super busy! Their menu offers many options for meals that are all health-conscious ingredients and recipes. A great choice for any diner looking for a great breakfast!The restaurant was pretty full on arrival, however they were able to seat us rather quickly. The dining area is very clean, modern and a little bit hipster. It's not too loud and it's a great place whether you're a small party or you need to bring a large family with kids. The noise is not too loud and there's plenty of seating.After reviewing the menu (with many great options) we decided on the following breakfast s: the traditional breakfast, the Belgian waffles and the pancake breakfast. *All of the waffles and pancakes are made with a healthy grain flour but no big chunks of oats or anything like that to remind you that you're eating healthy. The traditional breakfast is the most popular offering your standard eggs, bacon, seasoned potatoes and toast. The eggs were fresh tasting and not too dry or too wet. The bacon was delicious, thick and seasoned well as well as the potatoes. The toast served with that breakfast is a hearty grain and really delicious!The pancakes were quite large and fluffy and made just right. The eggs were Sunny Side Up along with the delicious bacon. *A big bonus was that the pancakes are up is served warm, so you won't be chilling out your pancakes anytime soon. The waffles were a cinnamon waffle which tasted a lot like a churro and those were deliciously fluffy and crispy as a classic waffle should be. The coffee was fresh brewed and not bitter.The staff here was wonderful, very attentive and very personable. We really enjoyed our waitress who had a friendly attitude, even though they were super busy. The tables were kept clean/not sticky, and the silverware was spotless. I love the dining area decor with the painted panel doors suspended from the ceiling that gave it a modern but farmhouse style look of decor.I definitely give First Watch two BIG thumbs up and five big stars!Everything is just perfect here, from the quality, ample portions of food, the great staff service and the overall ambiance of the restaurant. This is a really enjoyable place to get a good breakfast with a big smile!“

“Great service began by our server realizing the live music from the speaker over our booth was just a bit too loud and offering to have it turned down a bit. Food was amazing- I only wish I had thought to take photos, but we didn't wait!My husband had, "The best steak (sirloin) he had ever had." Be fore warned =] ...medium rare here is what we call 'Texas medium rare' = closer to rare by East Coast standards...the server checked with him and it was warmed up a bit longer to a perfect medium rare.I chose the Salmon in a Dijon Mustard Crust. Also delicious and perfectly cooked, with it's own flavor packed side dishes.We chose to skip a choice from their extensive wine cellar, choosing instead pints of Yellow Rose Smash IPA on tap from our favorite local brewery, Lone Pint in Magnolia.A wonderful meal, we will definitely be back.Dietary restrictions: A number of clearly marked GF items are on the menu.“

“It was my first time going to a steakhouse. My experience here was phenomenal. The restaurant definitely had the ambiance. I enjoyed seeing everyone having a great time. I felt like I was in a movie. My friend had 3 free porkchop dinner coupons. We got a porkchop, salad, and dessert. We didn't get the dessert, so we substituted it for a side or soup. My 13 year old son got the turtle gumbo. When he realized he was actually eating turtles, he cried. The salads were like big dinner salads and the bomb! Once they brought the porkchops out my mouth hit the floor. I have never seen anything so big. It was big and tender. The waiter had to cut the porkchop up. Dinner was AWESOME, DELICIOUS, and FRESH!!! The waitress was AWESOME!!! Oh, the restaurant has bottled wine along the walls. I felt like I was in a modernized wine cellar. I will be back to treat myself. I did order the chicken topped with crab meat...DELICIOUS!!! We all enjoyed ourselves. This was the first time my kids were at a fancy restaurant and they knew how to act. I was impressed!!!“
