Pampa Bar & Grill Katy

Food was okay, we got stuck in a corner on valentines… behind a crowded table. They overcharged us, asked if we wanted special, we said just what’s in the menu, wanted sides .. we asked was it included but she didn’t understand so miscommunication … we got charged for the special and the sides … got charged for mixed drinks and refills… didn’t even drink a mixed drink … they were friendly staff just it was busy and they were serving others… it was good overall… the ambiance, the food (most of it tasted good but some things …slightly raw chicken/empanada pastry), the staff… but needs a little help…

The place is small but cozy. The vibe is very laid back. Service could be taken up a notch. The server was extremely polite but could pay better attention to drinks running low and clearing dirty dishes off the table. Food was okay, very fresh slightly higher than I would expect for what was served, but freshness is definitely a 5 star!! I think their service held them back from a 5 star all around. Definitely stop in and judge for yourself.

Great morcilla with criolla! fugazzeta was tasty and the kids really happy with the burger and cheese pizza! Desert was on point!

First time in this Argentinian/Venezuelian restaurant. The food is good, the service is outstanding.

Took my brother here for his early birthday dinner, everything was good. It was my first time having grilled salmon, it cooked to perfection well done. Everything was on spot good from salmon to broccoli and their mash potatoes was delight as well. I finished all My plate to the point I wanted to try their flan but don’t have room for it! Well definitely come back!

Having recently moved to Houston after 10 years in Buenos Aires I was really hopeful that this place would fill the homesickness I had been feeling and man did it ever!! Empanadas were really juicy and tasty, perfectly cooked milanesa and to finish it off the classic chocotorta. Really great flavors, excellent service and felt right at ‘home’.

My first time eating here my mother decided that she wanted to try it to Spanish so it was after graduation for the youngest grandbaby who's in kindergarten I was absolutely amazed and was astonished at this place is like just sitting on the corner. The Caesar salad was amazing the steak was tender and juicy and flavorful they made some type of bread I can't tell you what type of spread that is it was amazing the manager in the owner came by our table to speak to my mother they had a full-fledged conversation in Spanish so she was extra happy and they have amazing coffee they have amazing coffee lattes and those other drinks. The atmosphere is real inviting casual you can eat outside or inside I definitely want to go back and and it was it was worth every penny that they charge.

I've been a regular at this Argentinian spot for a while now, and I just can't get enough! The food is consistently delicious, and the service is top-notch. The crew is amazing - always kind, smiling, and attentive. I've enjoyed both lunch and dinner here, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Argentinian flavors. Special shoutout to Andrea for exceptional service!

The drinks were mixed by an angel of God himself and the sweet potato fries were the best I've ever had in my entire meager mortal life. If you do nothing else, go try that. We went while it wasn't busy, so service was exceptional as well. It's a nice spot for a date night! Like so many others.. no pictures because the food was just that good.

This restaurant was highly recommended and it definitely was amazing. I recall the this place being a coffee bar and now a beautiful decorated restaurant. The staff immediately greeted us and constantly checked on us. The portions were great but the steak melted in my mouth. The beef empanadas were crispy and filled with delicious meat. The wine varieties were great also. What a nice place for a family or couple enjoying lunch, dinner together. I will definitely eat more food here and try other dishes! Stay hungry enjoy life my friends.

We were extremely pleased with our dinner here! I have also been for lunch with girlfriends. The food is amazing, the service was awesome, and the ambiance relaxed. It was so much food too! We had plenty to take home... Including the Alfajores!! Yummm

Wife and I decided to swing by here while we were in town for a birthday party. It's a relatively small space but very nice inside, the bar looks really nice as well. The servers were all very friendly and greeted us pretty quickly. We ordered two glasses of wine, small salads, and an array of empanadas (jamon y queso, chorizo, pollo, and capresse). We also had some of the pan de casa. The food came out super quick and was piping hot. I am not exaggerating when I say that we devoured the food. It was delicious. The house bread was warm with a nice crisp crust. The empanadas though were top notch. Flaky, held up well, and crazy flavorful. They even had their name stamped on the edge! We were so pleasantly surprised how much we enjoyed our meal and time there. Definitely worth a visit!

We were seated within 5 mins and greeted! However we're told we couldn't order food until 10-15mins due to kitchen being saturated with orders... however we are home sick and needed Argentinian food!! I needed my entraña with mash patatoes w/ chimichurri had our fix with choripan. Sorry no pictures that's how good it was... I definitely recommend Pampa grill &bar worth the wait and every penny!! The red sangria was on point. My daughter loved the chicken soup and her carbonera fettuccini my 2yr old devoured his as well. Dessert flan and ice cream was delicious. My mother had the grilled salmon cooked to perfection and great flavor gracias you have returning customers.

Greeted and seated immediately. Lots of in/outdoor seating available. Ambience quiet and reserved. Here at Pampa's - it is all about the MEAT and SOCCER on TV. Looking around NATIVES here ordering the grilled plates Parrillada . We ordered the BEEF Parrillada and of course you got to try those empanadas ! You get 2 sides with the plates - we got 2 BIG salads. There was plenty of food for 4 of us. Great taste ; nicely seasoned ; Now watch out - prices are HIGH, but considering everything - definite 5 star for those MEAT lovers or those on KETO diet. By the way free bread if you wish.

Having recently moved to Houston after 10 years in Buenos Aires I was really hopeful that this place would fill the homesickness I had been feeling and man did it ever!! Empanadas were really juicy and tasty, perfectly cooked milanesa and to finish it off the classic chocotorta. Really great flavors, excellent service and felt right at 'home'.

Have I died and gone to Argentinian food heaven? The service was equally as good as the food. We came on a Sunday at 11:30 and our food came out in less than 10 minutes. The chicken empanadas were so authentic that I thought I was in Argentina. They came out with fresh bread that was absolutely delicious served soft and steamy. I came with my 2 carnivores who ordered the beef milanesa that was so large they could only finish half. This cute restaurant in Katy must be a favorite for takeout because we saw many people picking up to go. They offer inside or outside dining and plenty of parking. Return: Absolutely. Cannot wait to return with our Argentinian friends and family . Highly recommended!!

Four of us on a Friday evening, early so not too busy. Empanadas, one of each, good pastry but all under-filled. We also ordered the chinchuria which came out overcooked even burnt. We sent them back for a new portion. We ordered two of the parrilla /asados. Morcilla was the highlight of each. Not impressed by the meat quality or quantity for $60 each. We had two portions of their special fries, they arrived cold, the bowls were not warmed and so you get cold fries! Basic ! I wanted to like this place . Appetizer served burned and later fries served patagonian cold to the same table sort of kills the meal. Whoever is working the pass and supervising the meals going out, needs supervision. I guess the guy at the bar distracted the staff, i would hazard a guess he is the owner

"A Wonderful Family Spot! The service and ambiance were excellent. We began with a fresh-from-the-oven bread tray. For the main course, we enjoyed the Parrillada Argentina for 3. And as dessert, we indulged in the flan with dulce de leche--it was absolutely delicious! We had a fantastic time and will definitely be back!"

Ordered ojo de bife, kids pizza, we got fresh bread, sweet potato waffle fries asparagus, beef and chicken empanadas. Everything was delicious my daughter enjoyed the pizza. The chicken empanada was well seasoned but not my favorite. Tables were clean friendly staff. Lots of families eating peaceful environment.

Great food, attentive service, and nice ambiance. It is a privilege to be their customer! We've had every kind of empanada they offer and none of them disappoint, though my favorites are the beef, the chorizo, and the corn and cheese (kids love them too). In addition, the drinks are great and don't forget to try the beef and pork thin sausage appetizer!

Absolutely love this place! Our faves are the empanadas and the milanesas. We typically order take out but have eaten here twice and the service and meal was great. The bread service is nice and hot. The sauces with the empanadas are super yummy. The price is also great. No complaints here. My toddler is a fan too! Will definitely keep coming back.

Everything was Amazing but what was the best was the empanadas and all the variety of Meats they had! From Cattle to Cow and even Sausage was extremely there Niche but I recommend everything expect the sides they where not made from scratch. Although the Bread was excellent!

So delicious! Just found this place. Took me back to my mom's cooking that I miss so much. I can't say enough how good this food is.

I enjoy exploring new spots, tasting different dishes, and supporting local businesses. The interior is very nice and prices were reasonable. The bread was decent, but that's where my enjoyment ended. Either I'm simply not fond of Argentine cuisine, or the meal lacked seasoning; the sweet potato seemed greasy, and overall it left me unsatisfied. However, taste is personal, so feel free to form your own opinion!

Caprese Milanese was suburb. Great service & fun atmosphere with personal touch from the owner! Thanks Diego

Sometimes you just wanna eat meat without the judgement of concerned friends or family. Sometimes, family eats with you. The two empanadas I had, chorizo and cheese, onion and cheese, were delicious, flaky, and flavorful; an excellent start to a very enjoyable meal. The Serrana Milanesa was the main dish of the night because I will never pass up the chance to casually eat prosciutto though it didn't overshadow the chicken it accompanied.

Service was fantastic Ambiance is quaint and quiet Food was amazing. You won't leave hungry. And the bread.... OMG... Amazing

Very good food! Empanadas and milanesa napolitana ! Friendly service and nice ambiance.

I'm visiting from out of town, and was looking for some easy to eat lunch for my kids. Ordered 14 empanadas to go and was delighted by how delicious they were! The chorizo was our favorite but they were all very good, highly recommend!

Food is good . Empanadas always good Ham and cheese and also meat Recommended . This time we order to go

I enjoy exploring new places, trying new cuisines, and supporting local shops. The interior is very pleasant, and the prices were fair. The bread was tasty, but that's about where it stopped for me. Either I'm just not a fan of Argentinian food, or the food was simply not tasty; it was dull, lacked flavor, the sweet potato felt greasy, and overall unsatisfying. Taste is personal, though, so you make your own decision!

This food is delicious! You have to try Beef Empanadas! The service is amazing! Clean and quiet place.

Hidden gem! Best empanadas I've ever had. Sausage appetizer was delicious, portions are quite generous. Drinks were delicious and happy hour pricing was great!

Nice people and empanadas are made to order. Will definitely return! Apparently I need to write more...there are pics of Messi on the wall but that was expected.

Last minute change of dinner venue led us to Pampa. Made resy 15 minutes in advance and were able to get a table for 4 on a Saturday night @ 7 PM. Totally recommending this restaurant. Pros: food was well prepared and in more than sufficient quantity for majority of dishes. Everything there is worth trying especially the steaks. Worth a revisit to try some of the other dishes. Food was worth the price. Waiters were very friendly and accommodating. Cons: Service was unexplainably slow and unorganized. Had to make multiple requests on multiple occasions for the same items. Restaurant was only at half capacity.

Just no I was excited to try out this new place so I decided to stop by on the way home today. I ordered a milanesa sandwich and some pasta. Well the sandwich flavor was good but the meat was not soft enough and full of nerves, so I had to cut it and throw most of it away because it was not edible. The bread was not fully cooked, it looks like it was homemade? But not quite well done. As for the pasta, nothing out of the ordinary. Good flavor but it was missing sauce. I spent over $30 for both things so nope. I don't think I'll be back..

The service horrible , the food cold , prices very expensive , low quality , never come back againg

The empanadas are good, but they aren't spectacular. The alfajores are delicious and close to the authentic ones I've had before, but I ordered four and they gave me three. Additionally, the waitress had no clue what I ordered online and made a new order. It was odd.

This place was so great and a real treat for some amazing Argentine food. We've been to lots of authentic argentine restaurants throughout the U.S and this place has made it to our top 3! We had the chorizo empanada which were flaky, crispy but juicy. We had entraña sandwhiches as our main entree with added ham and cheese and it was so delicious (made with home made bread). For dessert we had a delicious (and sweet) flan with dulce de leche, one of the best I've had!

The food was better than expected. The server was kind and helpful with choosing the perfect lunch for us. We had milanesa capresse, pure de papas, beef empanadas, morcilla and of course home made flan with dulce de leche and crème.

Love the empanadas. The ham and cheese is great. A regular on our rotation of restaurants.

One Star is even too much to give this restaurant. My family and I visited this restaurant today after reviewing the online menu. When we walked in I stated the number of people in our party (5) and we were seated towards the back of the restaurant. No problem with that - understandable, as the restaurant isn't huge. We're seated.......and that was it. No additional service, no water, NOTHING. I observed additional patrons enter the restaurant, be greeted, provided a beverage, and engaged with warm customer service. 10 minutes later, after continued observation, I gathered my family, walked to the service counter where I was ignored by 2 people standing there, then approached by the lady that seated us. She proceeded to ask if she could help me or if I had a question. Nope, you can't help me and I have a statement rather than a question (I shared my thoughts/feelings on the lack of service). This establishment discriminated against me and my family as we are a black family. NEVER HAVE I EVER, AND NEVER WILL I EVER be treated any less that what I am....a human being. My money spends the same as anyone else and I will rightful take my family, money, and my blackness elsewhere.

We just had lunch here and we enjoyed the experience. The owner is super nice and friendly. We joked with him about FIFA and he joked back and we had a very pleasant conversation with him. He also checked on us a few times to make sure we were doing okay. The girl who served us was nice, too. She was attentive and friendly and she was prompt. The food was so good! The empanadas were so delicious especially the four cheese one. It reminded me of my mom's cheese empanada. The picanha (not sure about the spelling) was super delicious. We both loved it so much. The skirt steak was really good, too. And if you add chimichury sauce to it, it takes it to a whole nother level. The pickled onions that came with the empanadas were good, too. There was live music and the whole place looked nice and clean. The restrooms are clean and smell nice. Overall, it was a great experience and we would love to come back again. In fact, we loved the empanadas so much that we bought a box of 14 to give to our friends to try.

This place is way nicer inside than what it looks like from the outside. The food was great. For appetizers we ordered the beef empanadas, which were fantastic with the chimichurri. For our main course we ordered the parrillada which came on a hot skillet served with 2 types of sausages, the Italian and the blood sausage (which i loved) and several cuts of picanha, asado and ribs. We paired our meal with a bottle of Malbec and had a wonderful cafe cappuccino at the end of the evening. I would have given 5 stars but took one off because the bottle of wine took a while in getting to the table after everyone already had their drinks, and I ordered another batch of their house bread and it was never delivered. A little confusion prob since two servers were tending us instead of one. Will def be going back.

We met friends for a great lunch and a bit of food research for our upcoming trip to Argentina. The food was excellent and the staff was very attentive and offered helpful suggestions when they heard we would be traveling to Buenos Aires in a few weeks. The empanadas and media lunes were both better than most of what we had in BA. We also loved their chimichurri and salsa criolla.

Excelent picanha steak with mashed potatoes and corn on the cob. As an appetizer you can't miss the chorizo and blood sausage. Great place

Deliiiii! Can't wait to stopping by again. We had a sandwich, empanadas and the lentil soup. I'm still daydreaming of the bread and the chimichurri.

Really great food!! We tried 2 different parrilladas and some traditional Argentine appetizer that were delicious. Will be going back for sure

Great wine, prompt seating and service. Comfortable atmosphere with bar seating. Steaks are cooked perfectly and the menu selection has a lot of variety. The servers, gave excellent recommendations for any questions I asked for with perfect suggestions to really provide an outstanding dining experience. Very happy with my whole meal and quality of service provided

Food and drinks are excellently prepared and delicious. The ambience is perfect. The owners and staff are all wonderful. Definitely going back!

I love this restaurant. Nice ambiance, excellent customer service, superb meat cooked Argentinian style, exquisite wines selection. It is an ideal place for a meeting or a date.

Great new location and much larger / updated. The staff was very friendly and the food is sooooo good.

this is one of my favorite places to eat! i love the pasta and empanadas. the staff is also very nice and helpful. definitely recommend and will be coming back more!

We enjoyed a casual Saturday lunch of empanadas. The food was excellent as was the service. Great for authentic Argentinian food.
