I had the guacamole burger and my husband had the green chili burger! What can I say? They are delicious, super juicy and the beef has a great flavor! The fries are super tasty as well, even with the great amount I managed to finish them all. I also want to add that we received great service the server was very attentive. I asked for my beef medium well and they made it medium and he wanted to make it up and change the burger rite away, I was very hungry so I didn’t take him on his offer. He brought us chocolate cake to make up for it.

17 stars. Loved the place. Loved the location. Loved the food. My husband said it was the best lasagna he has ever had. I had a French dip and it was perfect. Even my picky kids loved it. Our waitress was so sweet and so passionate about the food. Park underneath for free. Don’t turn into the paid parking garage. Nice outdoor seating. Will definitely return.

About a 10 minute walk from the Hermann Park/ Museum of Natural Science/ Houston Zoo area, this is an excellent spot tucked away in the museum district. If you go during peak hours you’ll definitely experience a wait, but it’s worth it. We sat at the bar and had the pleasure of Elvis being our waiter. The menu was pretty extensive and had a good mix of classic meals and fun twists. Their sandwiches are HUGE, so expect to walk away with a doggy bag if you get one.

My family like to come here after visiting the children’s museum, grabbing dinner before we head home, the staff are really attentive always with great attitude making us feel welcomed and taken care of. I recommend “waffle fries with blue cheese fondue” it is pretty big between two people so if you have a bigger party I recommend them! Also their proportions justify the price. They have food options for the kiddos, along with treats. They have coloring pages accompanied with crayons to keep them busy while we wait on the food! All in all this place is awesome!

Food: Perfect. Service: Homely. Atmosphere: Lovely. I have not a single complaint for this entire establishment. I stepped inside and was immediately welcomed in like an old friend. Not only was the server kind, patient, and helpful, but the food was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. I don't know of anything that this restaurant could do to improve, because it is clearly doing everything right.

I have been to both the Midtown location, the original, and baby Barnaby’s a number of times and have been really happy with the service. I really love that they have a dedicated dog menu (you can see my pup eating their ground beef and brown rice in the picture). She always scarfs everything up. On the human side, the spicy Asian wings always deliver, though I always wish there was about two more in the basket for the price. I’ve also been particularly impressed by the bison burger; as someone with a bit of experience and exotic meat burgers, it really hit the spot. I’ll definitely continue coming back here, the vibe is very friendly and they take extra care to make sure you’re satisfied!

Generous portions of food and everything I got was good. I wasn't wowed but it was still a good place. Dog friendly patio and all the staff was friendly. I believe you park in the garage connect to the building.

Wife and I split a bacon cheeseburger 🤤. They cut the burger in half for us, added a very generous serving of fries each, which were delicious by themselves. My sis and bro split the grilled chicken salad. The pic is just one of those. They were huge and delicious. We had the chips & queso - OMG. They put a bit of pico on top 😋. Brother got some wings as an appetizer - soooo good. People were so friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend this place!!

The BIGGEST salads we've ever had! Opt for the large size (extra $2-$3), but be prepared to take home half for leftovers. Really enjoyed the addition of peanuts in the Asian crunch salad. The appetizer fries are also solid - they're basically poutine. Bright, colorful location with a dog-friendly patio.

FUN, kid and pet friendly. GREAT service. I had the Club and my mom ordered the Egg salad sandwich. Both DELICIOUS. My daughter loved the atmosphere and our server asked if it would be okay to give her a complementary Rice Krispie treat at the end. FANTASTIC experience. Will be back!

We chose this Cafe for breakfast because it was close to the Museum that we were going to. It was very cute and we thought it was awesome that it has a menu for the pups. The food was amazing! I got the Green Eggs after being so indecisive with all of the great options. I absolutely loved it! It was an enormous portion, so I was unfortunately unable to finish it. But I am glad I chose it. My husband really enjoyed his healthy burrito as well! Definitely want to go back and try something else!

A very pleasant place. We had dinner with the children outside. Nice atmosphere. ⠀ Portions are big. Tasty food. The steak was wonderful. Burgers too. I chose the veggie bean one, my husband chose the meat one. Guacamole is wonderful. The kids bought an excellent hot brownie. ⠀ The service is very polite. ⠀ Also right on the street there is a great place to play. When the parents are still having dinner, the children are playing😃. ⠀ Very often this place👍🥳😉

Always love coming here. The salads are unbelievable and huge. Price points are awesome. Margaritas are fantastic and very strong! Love love this place. Just tried the hot dog for the first time and have a new favorite. Also try to meatloaf, either the sandwich or the dinner and prepare to be in very happy feels

Great food and amazing staff! Their kabobs are great, but their salad bar is full of great options as well, my wife and I each got 3 different sides so we could share and compare. The staff is very friendly and the location is very clean. Parking! If you do not see any parking spaces on the first level do not let that discourage you as you can go past the gate to the higher levels and the restaurant will validate it for you!
