Staying at a hotel nearby and after traveling all day yesterday just wanted a good breakfast and mimosa. The waffles are epic. Never had waffles with caramels on top. Still served with syrup but I also asked for butter on the side. Was surprised when the butter was melted when served but oh my gosh was it delicious!!! Honestly one of the best waffles I’ve had and I just got back from traveling through Europe! Also got scrambled eggs with cheese on the side because I really didn’t eat much yesterday. The eggs were just basic but the waffles were amazing. Customer service was great. Highly recommend!!
LOVED this place, will be back for sure!! I’m sometimes hesitant to rate black owned businesses but this one was easy to make! There was a 45 min wait around noon on Sunday but there was an option to reserve online for $50 per guest beforehand. The aesthetics were classy and nice, a photographer came around offering framed photos. There’s a downstairs (basement), main floor, and 2nd story option for seating. My friends and I were initially sat in the basement but was accommodated when we told them we weren’t comfortable. Great size of the meal, fair prices, and strong drinks (Keep in mind I am a light weight). I got a drink and the 2 catfish fillet meal with macaroni and cheese, DELICIOUS! Luckily the day we went Patron had a rep offering free shots, so that was fun! Our waiter was a bit everywhere and ended up mixing up some of our order. All in all, great brunch, girls day, or family spot. Definitely worth the try, you won’t be disappointed!
Had lunch here yesterday and the food and service were great! I had the Nashville chicken and red velvet waffles. So good. I love that they have different options of chicken and different options of waffles to choose from. I also had a blueberry lavender margarita. I could have done without that because it was like drinking juice. It wasn't strong at all. It was cute though. All in all, I'd definitely recommend this place.
This was my first time visiting but definitely not my last. It started off great with a friendly greeter that seated me right away. Then a handsome bartender that took my order. Extremely polite and funny and he knew how to make the most delicious watermelon lemon drop. The food was still the highlight. I ate until I was stuffed as a pig. Next time I’m leaving room for the bread pudding desert. I definitely recommend this place to all in Houston or visiting!
The wife and I went on a date here. The ambiance was exactly what we were looking for. The music was old school R&B, the staff was very nice. And the food was GREAT! We had the smothered chicken (I had my gravy on the side) with greens and candied yams. My wife had jerk lamb chops with mac and cheese, spinach, and mash potatoes. When I tell you, it was all good. It was! This is a great place for a nice date or hanging with friends. Very grown and sexy vibe.
Had the shrimp and grits today and my husband had the taste breakfast with a side of chicken and it was delightful! We come once a month or so from Dickinson just to get their delicious food!! Hands down the best brunch around.
I've been here twice and haven't been disappointed yet! Each time I've ordered the same thing which is the Taste of Soul. I've had it smothered and fried...each one was good. I have tried the smoked gouda mac and cheese, sweet potatoes, and the collard greens...oh yeah, it also comes with rice and gravy. The collard greens were okay but they had too many stems in them for my liking. The cornbread waffle is delicious! I wanna try the lamb chops but they're a little too expensive for my pockets! The Taste of Soul is $25, but I ate off my plate and the side of Mac three times atleast. Sorry about the pictures...I didn't have my phone at work, so I took them when I got home! 😁
Food was delicious! Taste has a lot of unique combinations. You can get whatever you want on the menu, for an example - pancakes & collard greens on the same plate. I was able to order breakfast food during nighttime hours. The red velvet waffles were my favorite. The music was good & loud. The restaurant is downtown, so that means searching the whole downtown area for a parking spot. Also, it’s best to make a reservation!
I had a great experience! The food was amazing, and the service was even better. Our waiter Telandus was the best. He was personable and so much fun. Drinks were delicious yet strong. I will definitely be back... soon!
Went there with my wife and kids. The atmosphere is more for dates and meet-ups, but we had a great time! The food.... THE FOOD!!! So so so so GOOD! I had cinnamon toast crunch waffles with with my Cajun chicken... (Homer Simpson gurgling noise)
