Review Willie's Grill & Icehouse - Houston

Absolutely one of our best meals while at Willies. Our waitress Mia was a gem and handled our needs perfectly. Today was dinner with my mother and family which only happens 2-3 times a year and we’re extremely happy with our restaurant choice today!!!

Just came here with my kids and our waitress was wonderful! She was super nice and friendly and considerate of parenting and how kids can be as she offered to give them free popsicles after they finished their meals but she spoke to me in my ear to make sure it was okay first without them hearing! The place had great fried shrimp and fish which is what we had all got! Their tea needed more sugar so I got something else instead. The bathrooms could use some cleaning also as there was toilet paper everywhere. I love the fact that they have a sand box outside for the kids! It's super clean and big and full of toys! Such a nice touch and special thing for kids! They also had a game room that had a few arcade games in it but some were broken or empty so that was a little disappointing. Overall, the food, service and sandbox made it for us!!

Went here for dinner and was seated down immediately. We were greeted right away by our server Mia. We ordered right away as it was a busy night and didn't want to wait long for food since we were hungry. I was wrong, food came out fast! Food was great! Mia made sure our drinks was filled and checked on us frequently during the dinner rush. All in all prepare to leave full and happy!

There is a really relaxed and comfortable atmosphere here. The fried shrimp was so good and reminded me of growing up in New Orleans. But the best part of my experience was the service - I ate at the bar and Alyssa took such good care of me, even though she was busy. Food and atmosphere are important, but good service will keep me coming back.

Kyle our waiter was amazing! Fast service, very nice, and made sure we had everything we needed. Great food! The fried pickles was great!

The loaded baked potato with smoked brisket was so delicious! And it is very much worth the price.... I can get three meals out of that one meal. It's been many years since we have been there, only because it's not close to us. But we will definitely make it a point to keep visiting and trying everything on the menu. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. Love that we can watch multiple games on the patio. Great atmosphere!

I was here last week and got some of the best service ever! I was taken care of by Natalia and she was super sweet and caring she was able to help me navigate the menu and make a final decision on my meal on top of that she was fast and efficient always making sure me and my wife were ok, food was delicious and filling. Will definitely be coming back for more!

Grilled shrimp and seasoned grilled veggies plate(no rice, double the veggies). 8 large, peeled to the tail, seasoned and grilled shrimp, very tasty and well grilled (charred in the right amount). Zucchini, broccoli and carrots seasoned and grilled, I asked for a little extra char and they came out perfect! All accompanied with garlic butter that just brings it all together. Wash it down with a frozen margarita....treat yourself!

Our server Natalia never disappoints! We can always count on her to make our time at Willie's the best. Strawberry pecan salad has become my all time favorite order. Enjoyable music as well

Willies 249 never disappoints - we’ve been taking the family there for 20 years! Tonight we went sat at their new bar and had a great time! The beer was cold, the fried jalapeños were delicious and our bartender Avery was very funny and personable.

After my wife and her 3 of her friends had crawfish last Friday and told me how great it was, I decided to check it out for myself. The wife and I went this past Sunday afternoon. We ordered 2 lbs crawfish w/ taters and sausage and fried pickles as appetizer. We ordered our food and filled our glasses at the soda fountain. After we sat down, we waited between 8 and 10 minutes before the food arrived...hot crawfish and the slightly warm, very salty fried pickles that were supposed to be the appetizer. I tried eating 3 or pickles ans ended up finishing my drink trying to get salt out of mouth. I then waited an additional 10 minutes for a server to appear to ask for more soda but it seems they were too concerned with the large birthday party that was taking up 3 or 4 tables next to us to check on how we were doing. When I walked back up to refill my own soda, I ended up following the guy who was our server back to my table. He asked if everything was alright and I said, it is now. I explained that the pickles were way too salty and he offered to bring fresh ones. I didn't think that the next batch would be any less salty so I declined. He removed them from the order. I actually live on Jones Rd literally less than a mile from the 290 and Jones location. I drove way out of the way to experience the great food and service at this location, but was seriously disappointed at the terrible service we received. I have never eaten at the 290 location before, but we did eat at the 529 and Hwy 6 location about 1 yr ago. We will not be going back to that one again either. And most likely will never try the Jones rd location now. Back to Bluewater I guess.

I love willies because of its convenience, and great staff, but they need to improve their crawfish. We come here a lot during crawfish season, and sometimes skip the crawfish because they are too hard. Tails are too hard and hard to get the meat out of the shell. We’ve been going here for three years, and I’ve noticed this every year. Maybe the crawfish they get are old; I dont know.

Normally , I love this place... been bringing my family and friends and out of town guests here for about 20yrs.... Tonight, sorry to say.... I was served raw chicken.... on our chicken nachos and our waitress ( Michaela) was kind enough to take this off our bill. . ah, ya .. we sent it back and didn't eat one nacho... ewww.....

The kitchen manager, Donnie, went above and beyond any manager I have ever encountered before ! I have a gluten and dairy allergy so finding food I can enjoy is annoying ! I called in to find out if the wings sauce was gluten free... I've been craving wings for a long time ! He not only dug, read ingredients and called me back... he made sure my wings would not be cross contaminated ! Seriously the best service !!! The wings are amazing ! Thank you to Donnie in the kitchen !

I liked it really chill atmosphere big place the staff was very friendly. I ordered the fried pickles a little salty and the hickory smoked burger which was a little dry but it was good and we got full.

Love this place!! Always the BEST food and our Jack and Coke slushy is the bomb!! I go for that but everything I've eaten there is great!! I would definitely recommend to anyone old or young. Sandbox

Madison was a great waitress! She provided exceptional service and assured me that the kitchen staff catered to my food allergy. I will definitely be returning!
