The food is always home style and flavorful. I feel like you get a lot more bang for your buck compared to other breakfast diners. The service is always great! Terri is such a sweet lady and your cup will never be empty if she's your waitress. They have plenty of seating and the place is spacious so don't worry about feeling crowded.

Northside's Best Breakfast Secret! Came in Saturday around 12, and food was freshly delivered. Traditional Breakfast is served all day. Thick cut bacon ! Added Nashville Hot Chicken to the menu Menu has a variety of entrees and they did not disappoint. Pros: Chicken wings - fresh and seasoned French Toast- light and powderedEggs Thick cut Bacon Service from Wendy was great Real Pink LemonadeClean restrooms Cons:None (Building may look a little rusty, but it's all good)

So I decided to order from here after a friend had visited. She raved about how good the food was. I finally gave in and placed an order thru Door Dash. When I say fast I mean fast. My order arrived so fast I just knew the food was going to be cold. But nope it was still hot as if it just came out of the kitchen. I ordered the hot chicken and waffle along with a side of grits and bacon. Yes, I'm that greedy lol. The chicken had so much flavor, so juicy and crispy. The waffle was sweet, soft and fluffy. I normally don't eat just anyone's grits but those Grits was so good. Yes, I will be ordering from them again very soon.

This diner definitely deserves their high rating. The shrimp and grits were delicious! The Nashville chicken and waffles and meat hash had great spice. My husband said the chicken was the best he's had in years. Everyone was very friendly and prompt with service. A clean and well taken care of building. Would definitely recommend. If we come back to Houston I'd willingly come here again.

Huge fan, huge! It's the chicken and waffles for me. I've only ever ordered via delivery app and the waffles is always leaning to one side of the box and slightly soggy and this is still my favorite chicken and waffle on the North (maybe Houston) That waffle..... is so good. The chicken so large and perfectly fried and seasoned! I've order the eggs and hash browns too but they were just ok to me.They're pretty quick with the orders but one day I'd like to visit in person and see what fresh off the grill taste like.

Awesome restaurant! Food was excellent we had the shrimp and grits , waffle and the south of the boarder skillet. Food was delivered quickly and piping hot. Very flavorful and we like our food on the spicy side so the waitress brought a very flavorful hot sauce.Service was excellent we visited around 8:30 on a weekday morning. We were seated right away and our waitress brought menus, water and coffee directly. She was very friendly and was very attentive to our needs.The restaurant is located in a working class business district and may have originally been a Denny's or other chain restaurant. Plenty of table and booth seating. Capacity might be 50-60 people. Also has counter seating for singles or couples. Looks like the do a big takeout business. While there probably saw 20-30 meals taken by individuals or delivery drivers.

This place was good, but I must say Terri was truly amazing !! She made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. You can tell all of the customers love her. Her personality was vibrant, she made you feel like family. The servings of food are huge, and there's plenty to choose from. The ambiance was also very nice. I will come back to see you Terrri!!!

When you walk in you feel like you're at home. The ambiance is homely, quiet and the restaurant was clean and inviting. The service was great. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and told me information about the inception of how Hanz came to be. The food was tasty and felt like my grandmother's breakfast on Saturday mornings. The bacon was cooked just right not to crispy and not rubbery , the sausage patty was cooked all the way through without being cooked too hard, the scrambled eggs were cooked soft like I asked, the grits just like home and the waffle and syrup were the perfect combination. The only thing I would have looked different was the hash browns cooked a little harder. Overall my experience was so good I'll definitely be back probably again and again as long as the quality stays the same.

The service was horrible. We waited for our food for thirty minutes while everybody else who was seated after us got their food. We told the waitress we needed to get our food because we were on break, and she showed no urgency to bring our food. The food was good, tho.
