Consistently excellent food in a comfortable, casual atmosphere. Counter ordering with delivery to table. NIce patio, plenty of parking and great variety on the menu.

First time eating there. Food was great. I had the Avocado toast. The thing that stood out the most for me was the customer service. The staff was super friendly and I truly appreciate the way everyone treated us. I will go back again!!!

I've been to this place twice and let me just say they have the BEST chocolate chip cookies. I ordered a dark chocolate espresso martini, but I did not like it. Tasted nothing but chocolate. I ordered the chorizo queso and it was a 10/10. They give you seasoned cajun chips which makes it even better. No charge for chip refill. I've been for brunch and the sausage and pancakes were ok, but nothing to rave about. You order before sitting and you do not have a server. I ordered the brisket bowl that came with italian black rice. That was different and I give it a 7/10. Usually pretty busy on the weekends for brunch, but no problem with finding parking or a table.

This location is in the ground floor of a shared space building with lots of parking. The interior is bright with lots of natural light and there is also an outside patio. When you walk in you want to get inline and order and then you will be given a number and the food and drinks will be delivered to your table. There are 2 separate counters to order at but just 1 counter for ordering food. The tables and chairs are comfortable. The service is great, everyone was friendly and knowledge about the food. The food is really good, we actually went back the next morning for breakfast. The quality of the food and the ingredients used plus the service are all pluses. It is a bit pricey so know that going into it. The desserts looked phenomenal. We both had the fresh squeezed orange juice and it did not disappointment. I did get a white chocolate mocha the first morning, it was decent but nothing something I would order again. I really enjoyed the pastrami hash, the poached eggs were cooked perfectly. The hash could have use a little more potatoes but otherwise it was really good. The chicken sausage was really good and not salty. The jam for the toast was peach and it was excellent. I don't know that you could go wrong with anything you order. Happy eating!

I ordered the Steak Bowl and it was delicious, especially the "salsa verde". That salsa verde is not the Mexican kind, it is chimichurri, and it was delicious over the steak. Not a fan of ordering standing, but we did it and the food was great. Sitting outside in this weather just made it even better.

What an incredible place! Some of the best breakfast I've ever eaten. The pancakes & syrup are a must try! (Not sure how you can improve syrup, but they managed to do it!!) So delicious. Such a trendy but warm vibe and incredible service! Michael took care of us, and he was just incredible. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. It is counter service, but they deliver your food to your table, and treat you like a full service restaurant! We were so impressed with this place. Already planning to go back!

My family and I really loved our experience at The Kitchen. The menu balances simplicity and sophistication, with options that feel fresh and high-quality. It has a vibe that feels both upscale and healthy Even though the menu has a bit of an upscale vibe, the atmosphere is super friendly and casual, which made it feel really inviting. Oh, and the margarita flight? Amazing! We loved every single flavor - no misses there. This is such a great spot for any occasion. Whether you're out with family, friends, or on a casual date, you can't go wrong. Definitely worth a visit!

This place has an awesome breakfast and brunch menu that'll make you want to set your alarm early. I tried their Texas breakfast with cinnamon roll pancakes, and let me tell you--God damn, I could taste the love in those pancakes. It felt like a warm hug from a cook who genuinely cares about and wants to take care of you. Randomly, their orange juice stood out too--definitely freshly squeezed, crisp, and refreshing. It's the kind of OJ that makes you wonder why you've been settling for the bottled stuff all your life. Random story. As I was waiting in line to put my order. A guy ahead of me asked the waiter if the cinnamon roll pancakes came with actual cinnamon rolls "on top." The worker paused, probably questioning the man's life choices, before politely explaining they're pancakes flavored like cinnamon rolls. The guy still ordered them and looked confused the whole time. Bottom line: If you're craving breakfast or brunch that hits the spot, The Kitchen is a must. And yes, get the cinnamon roll pancakes. Trust me.

Excellent find in the Woodlands! Can't decide what to eat? This place has such a wide variety of food options to choose from and all delicious! You can order your food and sit anywhere you want. The outdoor covered patio is surrounded by trees and has a perfect ambiance for socializing and enjoying the beautiful weather. The service is fast and very helpful for a first timer. I would return in a heartbeat!

The lobster toast here is chef's kiss! The scrambled eggs were perfectly cooked, fluffy & layered on a buttery, crispy croissant, topped with dreamy hollandaise-- this dish is legit what my dreams are made of! I didn't know exactly what to expect with the addition of the peach jam but it paired perfectly for a lightly sweet & savory flavor in every bite. I also had side of crispy breakfast potatoes and added chorizo, which were cooked exactly how I liked them. Don't skip the deviled eggs, they're little bites of heaven! Everything was top-tier delicious.
