Dish Society

Love this place! ❤️ Nothing but good things to say about this place. The food is always good and at a very reasonable price.🥨🥪🌮🌯 Beer was great 🍺🍻 Would definitely recommend and return. ☺️👧👨👩👴💑👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 Great for family and friends.

Great place to eat, not too heavy nor light of a meal! Love the vibes and the location, and the staff were also very friendly. I ordered the Salmon Poke bowl-- absolutely amazing! The marinated salmon melted in your mouth and paired well with the sesame seeds and sriracha aioli ( recommend to squeeze lime on the salmon!) Atop the soft (in a good way) Cilantro lime rice was sesame cucumber, which balanced out the texture of the dish with crunch! It was a refreshing dish. I even described to my family that as I ate it, I was sad because it was so good of a dish that I could eat it quickly, but would also simultaneously be reluctant to finish it too quickly because then there would be no more for me to eat 😅 My family ordered: seasonal grain bowl, citrus glazed salmon, Texas pecan pesto pasta, and quinoa stuffed avocado. We all agreed the dishes were great and well balanced!

I have dined at Dish Society several times and it is a great go to! Brunch, lunch, or dinner you can’t go wrong with several tasty options whether you want something healthy or more comfort food. I love it because I can get something healthy like the watermelon salad and my sister can get the chicken and biscuits. We are both satisfied and enjoy our delicious meals! The watermelon salad is light and refreshing on a hot summer day. Service is always friendly and helpful! They are accomdating and let me add grilled chicken and take off the goat cheese for my salad and let my sister get the gravy on the side for her chicken and biscuits. Other favorites of my mine are the seasonal grain bowl and superfood salad!

Came two weekends in a row. Great pecan pancakes. Chef (or someone else?) checks on table religiously after serving food. Great quality

It’s a beautiful location with great customer service. Flavors match their top notch presentation on a plate. Good for happy hours or just everyday dine!

Great spot for lunch. Food is pretty fresh and healthy. Been here a few times. The tacos and brisket are good, but they don’t completely hit the spot if you’re craving Mexican or good Texas BBQ. I would still order them again unless I’m craving one of their salads. My friend always gets the shrimp and grits which always looks delicious!

I’ve eaten here many times and it’s always great food, atmosphere, and a nice blend of healthy and tasty food options. Also had one of the best lattes in a long time here.

A nice everyday restaurant with a bar. It suits for all age groups. It opens for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We like to come here on weekends for a brunch or lunch. My favourite from here is the Beef Brisket with Baked whole Sweet Potato. It’s delicious and available only after 3pm. My husband’s all time favourite is the Hot Chicken Sandwich. Their restroom is always clean and one of the cubicles fitted with a baby changing table. There is a valet parking available just outside the restaurant if you need one.

Great food and service. I got the kale and mushroom pasta and added chicken to it. I will be back.

Food was really good. Great atmosphere!! Service was really good. Quite place on a Sunday morning. Area was nice.

I loved this place! Convenient parking, plenty of seating indoor and outdoor, and good food. The service was kind and quick even though I went with a small group. Price is reasonable and the menu has a lot of options. Your order yourself at the counter and they bring the food to your table I think my only qualm is that the food portions weren't that big. Brunch places usually have fairly large portions but here, the amount was about what I'd eat at home(5'2 female). I got the Nutella French toast since it seemed to be popular and it only came with two pieces. Many other places usually provide around four. Overall my experience was good, but nothing notable. The food was good but there wasn't anything that stuck out to me.

Stopped in on a weekday a little after lunch time. It wasn't busy so we ordered our food and found a table easily. The servers were nice and our food came out pretty quickly. My mom ordered a bowl of their tomato bisque and their chicken pesto sandwich. The soup wasn't our favorite, it was leaning on the sweet side. The sandwich however was decent, the pesto had a good flavor but there was barely any pesto on the sandwich. My sister had their pesto pasta, it was good as well but it had so much sauce that it was almost soupy. I ordered the bbq brisket sandwich and it was fantastic! The brisket was cooked nicely it was tender and the sauce was tangy. The slaw added the perfect crunch. If I were rating just based on my dish I'd give a higher rating, but because everyone else's dishes were just okay I don't think I can give a higher rating.

Very different! I like sweet potatoes and I like brisket, together sounds like something amazing. It was ok. It wasn't nasty by far but those 2 things with all of that cabbage threw it off for me. Not enough sauce but the sweet potato was cooked to perfection. Bread pudding was ok. It could have just been the options I've tried. Service was mid, no one was friendly but not unpleasant, just there. Very open and crowded environment during lunch hrs. 9x10 you'll have to valet park or park across the street. I'd come again and try brunch.

Visiting TX and was craving shrimp and grits. I found this place on Yelp. You get a free appetizer for checking in on Yelp. The Fried Smoked Gouda Grit Balls and the Shrimp & Grits were both 10/10. Both were so flavorful and talk about creamy grits. The margarita was good. I got there during happy hour. Who can complain about a $7 cocktail? I started at the bar but had to go outside patio to eat because the AC had the inside freezing. I did mention it to the bartender/server but I guess she couldn't adjust the temp. Service was friendly and fast.

This is probably one of our favorite places to stop at for breakfast/brunch. Our go to favorite dish is probably the is the chicken biscuits. So delicious. The French toast was good as well but the chicken biscuits stole the show.

Came for their social hour to get half-priced drinks, and had a great experience! The decor was nice, it felt very clean inside, and all of the staff was very friendly and helpful! We got the PASSOA LEMONADE and the FROZEN DREAMSICLE and they were both delicious!! TEXAS PECAN PESTO PASTA: This had great flavor and was so delicious!! I added chicken to the dish and they were very generous with the amount given. The chicken was also very tasty, and not dry at all. SHRIMP & GRITS: The grits tasted really buttery and delicious! The shrimp was perfect! The sausage was amazing as well! Honestly, this dish was perfect! Couldn't find a single thing I didn't like, except that it looked like there were two sausages when it was really just one split in half lol Everything we tried was fantastic! Looking forward to trying new dishes here, hopefully they're all just as good as the ones we had this time!

Great spot for lunch. Food is pretty fresh and healthy. Been here a few times. The tacos and brisket are good, but they don't completely hit the spot if you're craving Mexican or good Texas BBQ. I would still order them again unless I'm craving one of their salads. My friend always gets the shrimp and grits which always looks delicious!

I have always loved this location even during the pandemic they are always great with customer service and the food is always top notice. I had not been here in a while since I moved from the area so I was pleasantly surprised that the biscuit and gravy came spicy as it was spicy but in all the right ways. The black coffee was just the way I liked it which made for an even better breakfast. I also enjoy that they have so many inside seating since it is so hot outside. I plan to go back sooner than later.

This is my first time trying this restaurant. It is usually super packed. I checked in at the restaurant and was given a free order of grit balls for being a yelper. The grit balls were good. I also ordered veggie tacos since I'm vegetarian. I really enjoyed the tacos. They had lots of filling and it came with a side of black beans. I also had an order of hibiscus tea on the side which was just ok. Overall the service was nice and the staff were friendly. The menu is super limited for vegetarian options though. I would still try them again for breakfast.

Visited on a Saturday for brunch with some family. You order at the counter first then find a table; we lucked out and ordered right before a lunch rush. Space was relatively open when we arrived so finding a table wasn't terribly difficult. The food itself was delicious. The spicy chicken and biscuits hit the spot. Chicken was spicy but not overbearingly so and the gravy was just the right counterbalance to the heat. The Entry Level smoothie was really fresh, too. The price is a bit on the higher side but in the case of the Chicken & Biscuits thankfully the portion matched the price. The food is good but left me stuffed like I wouldn't believe. I didn't eat again for the rest of the day

Dish Society on a Saturday for lunch. Plenty of free parking at this location so that's nice. The nice thing about using the YELP app is that some places give you free stuff for checking in, and this restaurant was giving for free 4 Gouda balls...which were delicious. Thank you! So the way it works here is you walk in go to the counter place your order and pay and they give you a table tent with a number and then someone brings your food out. They bring ALL your food out at once not in stages, so we got our appetizers, salads and entrees out all at once which was ok as we were really hungry. We split the strawberries and watermelon salad and we split the grits and shrimp. The Gouda grits and shrimps come with an egg on top. Everything was delicious. Wish the grits came with bread to soak up the cheese. The place is open sitting and the staff is nice. They have a bar area also. And they also have outdoor seating.

The food is pretty okay for brunch in general but all at a bit of a price point. Unfortunately have to give it two stars because of a case of food poisoning form their chicken pot pie. Would recommend just going safe and getting sandwiches and other menu items for sure Overall a great sunny place for a good coffee or drink

I love Dish society! It's my go to favorite spot for happy hour and brunch with the girls. I have had almost every item on the menu. My favorites are the avocado salmon and the brisket sweet potato. They have happy hour every day of the week just at different times. The hh drinks are 6 and 7 dollars and are sooo good. I go here at least twice a month .

This is our local Dish Society and the one thing I love about this location is the colorful outdoor seating area. Sitting outside on Sunday morning during breakfast time is the biggest draw for us. I can only speak about the Nutella French Toast because it's my favorite thing on the menu. The 3 slices of toast aren't very large and are on the smallish side but when accompanied by a healthy serving of strawberries and blackberries, it'll fill you up for awhile and ends up to be a mouth watering combination when accompanied by a side of bacon. Yum. It's a must have treat. PRO TIP If the parking lot is full, head to the back of the building and park in the back

Breakfast for lunch this time, and man was it good. Super healthy and tasty too, you can't beat that. Btw- they get their eggs at a local farm.

I love coming here. Easy to order and their mimosas are a nice twist. This was my first time getting the flight and it's a great deal. My favorite was the prickly pear. I always get their brisket and eggs which never disappoints. Cheese grits underneath makes it so filling and love the pickled onions.

Really good food, two different menus for breakfast and lunch, nice and clean place, good location, friendly employees... a little pricey!

Food and ambiance are good. I really liked my hot chicken sandwich, upgrade to squash soup side, and main root fountain drink. My unpopular opinion is that conceptually, the counter service concept does not fit their menu. We had one set of silverware on our table and there's no silverware or condiment bar so our table of three had to scavenge from other tables. No employees around to flag down. This just sort of tainted my $30 lunch. And finally, there's a valet up front and they parked cars in the parking lot lanes so that we were in a grid lock trying to leave. Conceptually off once again because they do have a small lot but a valet congesting it missed the mark as a solution. They seemed to be doing fine so maybe I'm alone in being bothered by these aspects of the experience.

In town visiting family and we decided to stop in to Dish Society before heading to the airport to head home. My cousin actually recommended this place and boy am I glad she did! It is touted as being farm to table, and the interior has a sort of modern farmhouse feel to it. This location is in a swanky area of Houston, and right around 11am we came when the restaurant was bustling with people dressed in their business casual and some looking to be in their Sunday best. When you walk in, you place your order at the counter, then take a number to your seat and a server will run your food to you when it's ready. This location does have ample seating indoors and outdoors and a full bar, and the menu online does mention happy hour drink specials in both the early AM and evening time. I couldn't decide on which one to get so I went with several vegetarian sides, Smoked Gouda Grits, two over medium eggs, the skillet potatoes and a biscuit and an iced honey lavender latte with almond milk. My cousin went with the shrimp and grits and we shared an order of the house beignets. My favorites were the grits and the beignets. The grits had plenty of that Smokey Gouda flavor, and it was as Goldilocks says "Just Right" temperature wise. The beignets super light and fluffy, generously dusted with powdered sugar and the sauce to dip it in was sweet but not overpowering, I would definitely order these both again on another visit. Eggs tend to be eggs no matter where we get them, and the potatoes were good, just tasted a bit too onion-y for my liking. Now the side of biscuit, and though it was a decent size, I don't feel warranted the $3 price tag just for one. I get this place is swanky, I just didn't expect that for a single biscuit. My honey lavender latte was also yummy, and I liked the espresso used to make it. If I wasn't about to board a plane I would have ordered another but would prefer not to give myself the jitters. The flavored syrups of course sweeten the drinks but if needed they offer stevia and sugar in the raw at each table. My cousin went with the shrimp and grits and it looked so tantalizing, she really liked it a lot and her iced coffee as well. Overall this was a very good spot to have brunch; so good my cousin said she planned to come back tomorrow with her hubby and try some more on offer...and I am slightly jealous I can't join her! Dish Society, I really dig what you're doing. And if you can Dish it out, I'd happily take it! (See what I did there?)

First, the 2 gentlemen behind bar (could not understand English). 2nd, they could not understand the menu. Dish Society has definitely made some changes to operations. I hope they figure it out.

We stopped in for Monday brunch after going to Sunday's Taylor Swift performance. The four of us all had a great brunch. The Brisket, eggs and grits were fantastic. The Chicken and biscuits with gravy were also good. The biscuits were a bit dry and crunchy. They must have been baked this morning and sat all morning. The gravy and chicken were 5 star delicious. The BLT was excellent. Very good coffee is also served. Definitely 5 stars and I'm very much a coffee snob. We are looking forward to them opening in Austin area. You definitely can't go wrong having a meal here. We also had great service, had several refills of coffee, tea and drinks brought to our table. A GREAT spot to enjoy a meal!

The Brisket was ok, but salty, the fries were crispy, but lacked flavor. We could not finish the Crispy Chicken Kale Caesar Salad. It was bland and barely had any Caesar dressing in it.

Sis & I popped in for a quick brunch plate. We both enjoyed our meals. It was my 1st time for brunch at the Memorial location. I've only eaten here once before so long ago. I will def go back to I loved the relaxed ambience. It was a spur of the moment outing & it gave what it was supposed to give. Service was nice & on point.

This place used to be good, but no longer is. I'm not sure if they had a management and strategy change - but food is barely edible now. I ordered Pesto Chicken Sandwich which just had a giant piece of rubbery chicken and rotten romaine leaves. I have always ordered this dish but they have definitely changed it, possibly due cost cutting. Their brussels sprouts were so sour it made my jaw hurt. Pasta sauce wasn't creamy. Overall, it's sad how bad this place became. Inside of the restaurant is fair. Food is not.

3/7/2023: There's so much wrong here. The parking is absolutely wicked from 12:00 pm until about 1:30 pm. They have complimentary valet parking, but you need to tip (don't be a jerk) and who has cash these days?! The restaurant is a walk up order style, get your own drink, seat yourself and get your own refills, BUT, please tip us. So tired of the tip shaming or on a lesser offense, the expectation of a tip for such little work. They even give you silverware to carry to the table, like your hands aren't full enough already?! I had my drink I had to fill, my lemons, my sweetener, my number to put on the table, my silverware and don't forget the stuff I walked in with to start this journey. Someone really didn't think that part through. At least put the silverware on the table for us! I would classify this establishment as one of those hipster, "we make regular stuff with a spin and charge you a lot for because our Ingredients are farm to market" kinda places; seems to be the trend these days. My sandwich with chips and a drink was $18.30 BEFORE tip. Yes, I tipped. Though it makes me mad, I'm not completely void of what's socially accepted/expected. I had the BLT sandwich today. This one had an egg on it. It was good, but different. I do recommend the pretzel bun with the BLT. My friend had the chicken salad sandwich. She's not picky at all, but said it was the worst chicken salad she had ever eaten. She left half of it on her plate to be tossed. I do have an appreciate for the indoor decor, nice shaded patio and 'Sonic' ice. The only problem is the hoops I have to jump through to get to the nice decor, enjoyable patio and tiny cubed ice. I'm already teed off from my parking experience, I can't even enjoy the other. It's better to just pick another place next time. This type of trendy eatery is obviously not for me.

Dish society blew up like 4-5 Years ago (pre-pandemic) and I thought it might be good to pop in after a little bit of time apart. Everything that made it good is still there. Menu is mostly the same I think and they have the Boxwood picture spot that got the viral social media fomo posts going for them. Food is still tasty as well, it's mostly a brunch affair here and the walk up counter service makes it easy to bring a little one with you. It's very laid back and trendy vibe and the food matches. They have bigger dishes and smaller dishes but everything seems to be on the same level, no real standouts or stinkers. A good time if you come here and it isn't packed.

Very lovely decor. Fresh & clean. Counter service place. I got the chicken sandwich on a pretzel roll & it was mediocre. The bun was fabulous. The other flavors were just ok. Sandwich was very large, so I think they went for size over flavor. As a side, I got the Mac & cheese which was very good. Husbands burger was decent. Overall, I felt the place was overpriced. I'll try brunch, but would not go back for dinner. Might go for a happy hour & get the pretzel bites. Update: The business did reach out, very politely offered a gift card if I would come back & remove my review until I was able to re-evaluate. I declined to change my review.

Dish Society was recommended as one of 10 best places to eat pancakes in San Antonio. The pancake looked beautiful on the plate. It was served with fresh strawberries sliced and arranged on top and a very light dusting of powdered sugar. Unfortunately the pancake was tough and heavy. It was served just above room temperature with room temperature syrup. The syrup tastes like artifically flavored syrup, not real maple syrup. Interestingly, when I requested butter, the waiter did bring warm syrup and a chilled wrapped butter square. It seems to me, if you're looking for a good pancake, you should try a different restaurant. I'll try Dish Society again, but next time I'll give something like their Brussels Sprout Sper Salad a try.

Beautiful restaurant and excellent food. It's reminiscent of Flower Child, but with a full bar and better menu. Super healthy options, really friendly staff. You still have to order at a cashier, but you get your food really quickly and it is so good. It's also very inventive and beautiful to look at. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Very good food for a fair price. Family friendly with order at counter and with table bussing. A good full bar.

Brisket stuffed potato $13.95 - really good. Get your money's worth. I take half the sweet potato to go. Brisket is tasty. Coleslaw adds crunch. Citrus glazed salmon $18.45 - good but pricey, but I guess salmon is in general. Good portion size at least. Cooked well. Veggies & rice were good. Date preferred my brisket though. Friendly service. Unlike some dish society's, you are seated and then order with your waiter. Plenty of free parking in front lot.

I love coming to Dish Society on Sundays with my family. it's always an amazing experience. The chicken Biscuits smothered in Gravy are my favorite. I love ordering at the counter and taking a seat. The food always get delivered so fast and fresh. 10/10. The pancakes are pretty good too

It's okay but I don't think the food was all that great? Fast casual where you order before you sit down and they bring the food out but nothing really stood out.

Like any chain, Dish Society is perfectly adequate. Their food is consistent, albeit unremarkable. Their service, like their food, works for the occasion and goal of Dish Society. If you're looking for "good" food, look no further. If you're after an experience that makes you pause and thank the heavens for culinary gifts, this won't be your cup of tea.

As someone from New Orleans, we're typically very picky when it comes to food. But, Dish Society, exceeded all of our expectations and then some! I ordered the shrimp & smoked Gouda grits (without the egg) and wow.. the flavor of the sauce mixed with the creamy grits was literally mouth watering good! I would highly recommend it. My brother got the BLT and he absolutely loved it. My mom and aunt got the hit chicken sandwich with their homemade chips and loved it as well! Management and the service there was exceptional! This is definitely a highly recommended restaurant in my opinion.

The food was amazing , and the service was ok. You have to order upfront and they don't really come to check on you basically they just bring the food and you are your own server after lol . The vibe was nice it wasn't too hot outside it felt good

This location greatly missed on providing good food. Ordered the breakfast skillet and the Nutella French toast. The skillet was very much over cooked and loaded with cheese. I couldn't figure out what was under the cheese either. It was all over cooked. The French toast was very hard and dried out. It seemed as though the cook didn't prep it correctly or something. The fruit on the French toast was good. Ended my visit with an espresso which was great. The bartenders here are very friendly. Great set up and decor, I was surprised that the food was so under par.

Great location, plenty of seating options for small and larger groups and there was plenty of parking for our group of 3 around 10:30am on Sunday. The ordering line moved quickly and our food came out fast! Everything was hot and delicious! While my friends were busy being impressed with the huge blackberries in their sides of fruit, I was salivating over the smoked gouda grits... OMG! Everyone we interacted with was super friendly and helpful and the manager even stopped over to check on us. We had a great brunch experience! Oh, their beignets, while delicious (especially with the coffee anglaise) are most definitely just fried biscuits... so if you're looking for an authentic beignet experience, these aren't it.

Wow! What a gem! Freshest eggs I've ever had, sausage I swear is homemade and creamy grits with gouda. Be sure to grab a menu at the door before going to the counter to order. They lost one star because of the floor manager. He went to the tables to see how the food was but mine. As a solo dinner we usually don't matter to a restaurant.

II would have liked to eat there. The young lady at the register seemed to not be able to help the two rude ladies that took up way too much time getting samples and asking questions. I waited to be the next person to order for over 15 minutes and several people came from the back and saw us but no one stepped up to take our order. It was not just us but a pretty long line! I will not be going back.

Visited for brunch on a Sunday, checked out the menu and was thrilled to see Nutella french toast, I LOVE NUTELLA. So of course i ordered, overall taste and representation was a 4.5/5. Service crew members seemed to be in a rush but were very helpful with assisting us by cleaning our table. Menu Items are $ to $$ and yes they offer vegan options. Interior design is a 5/5 with the contemporary style and retro feel. I do advise customers to not suit my the kitchen door, there was one crew member who kicked the door open and i spilled some but not many specs of my beverage on my pants. Overall review, great brunch spot.

This was my first visit to a Dish Society location and of course I can't speak to the whole menu, but the Grilled Chicken Pesto sandwich couldn't have been improved upon in my opinion! The sandwich had a thin, but large grilled chicken breast with goat cheese, pesto, spinach, and tomato on a very soft pretzel bun. I'd never had a pretzel bun before, but wow this one was a great start! I was also impressed by the very tasty house chips, which were thin, crispy, and salty. I typically don't like home made chips, but these were very good. I'm super excited to visit Dish Society again soon!

I've been here before maybe a year ago and had the shrimp and grits. It was good. Today I had the cobb salad and a glass of wine. The salad was fine. Nothing to write home about. The bartender was pleasant and helpful. I would recommend going after the lunch rush.

I love coming here. Comfort food for breakfast. I always get the pork belly hash and the shrimp and grits. They're just so good and I'm sure everything else is good, I just can't seem to bring myself to stray away from my go-tos! The brisket stuffed sweet potato is also good during lunch/dinner hours. It's a really cute place for brunch!

I really enjoyed the set up here, did have to wait for a waiter or to be seated. You just order at the counter, find your own seats and they bring the food out. I had the brisket and eggs and it was sooo delicious. The brisket was very tender, flavorful, and paired well with the grits and eggs. My friend ordered the Brussels sprout super salad and he was not really a fan. It was very dry and they didn't put any dressing, even though it was supposed to come with it. Even after he get the dressing it was a bit dry, maybe that's how it's supposed to be. Overall I enjoyed my meal and the vibes here.

Consistent, solid place from breakfast / lunch / dinner. Above average coffee, bar, meals.... haven't yet delved into desserts - I need to lose some weight! Order at the counter & they'll bring the meals to you. This past visit we only ordered hot tea and tortilla soups. Had to ask twice for the tea - not sure what was the issue. Soup was great, tomato (red broth) based - hit the spot w/ the recent bout of cold weather.

The service was fast. You order first then sit yourself. There is patio and dining seating. There are vegetarian and vegan options.
