The Greasy Spoon

Baby!!! Let me tell you. This place is not messing around. Their food was so delicious and filling and the portions are hearty and more than worth the price . You will not leave this place hungry or disappointed. In fact, you may not be able to leave after you fill up on nothing but soul food goodness and maybe a little something for your sweet tooth. Their peach cobbler is perfect. It has that nice pie crust topping and not the bread topping you find anywhere else. If you can make it here, come try it out. If not, look for their food truck or their Pearland location. Yum Yum Yum

When I tell y’all I’ll be back, I will most definitely be back. Food was amazing! A variety to choose from. I had their Cajun fried chicken wings (cook to order) with some yams, mac n cheese, greens, cornbread, and gumbo. Wings were cooked to perfection & juicy! Great bold flavors. The mac n cheese was a little too runny for my likings. Now my only complaint but won’t affect my rating was their gumbo. It was on the salty side. Lastly, they only had two kinds of drinks to sell which was Pepsi & Mountain Dew. Luckily you can get something next door at the gas station and bring it in. I didn’t wait too long for my food which was a plus knowing it was cook to order. Service was okay as in not rude nor super attentive. Otherwise everything was good. Also, cashless facility.

Yes, get greasy okay. This is a very small and quaint space with a small buffet of items. They also have menu options that have to be fresh cooked. My guy got Oxtails which ... and as u can see, they don't skimp, and the flavor was awesome. I got the catfish, which has to be cooked to order, it was full of flavor! We were 20 mins from home, and I still couldn't eat the fish because of how fresh n hot it was. They also gave ample condiments, which was also wonderful.

My friends and I went and all got different entrees: pork chops, blackened chicken, and catfish. The proteins were GREAT! The sides were meh. I was not a huge fan of the greens or Mac and my friends weren’t crazy about their cabbage and mashed potatoes either. Hot sauce gave the sides more flavor but they were pretty bland. Each meal comes with cornbread and it was delicious! If it weren’t for the sides, this is somewhere I could see myself coming on a regular and consistent basis. Also, the woman at the cash register was super sweet. Overall would recommend.

OH MY GOD, this place you can miss but the food is AMAZING. It’s pricey but I love the food. Everything . The oxtails were the best I ever had, Mac, and greens. I honestly felt at home eating here ! You’ll love this place. The employees beautiful and very professional. They gave me a free cobbler cup.

If it’s one thing, looks are deceiving! This is the WORST Soul food restaurant I have eaten at. The food, for one, was cold, and they looked like someone who had just learned how to cook, slopping food in a tray and calling it a day. The best thing I had in my entire order was the even bad collard greens. For something that can be steamed or cooked in water, they were dry. The Mac was tasteless, the fries not crunchy, just soft, the catfish was alright, didn’t taste much seasoning, the seasoning on the shrimp was VERY SALTY, spaghetti was nasty like it was made with some old or freezer burn seafood, pasta was tasteless as well, corn was good don’t think you can mess up sweet corn and the ox tail didn’t fall off the bone. I was chewing for some time to eat the ox tail. Overall, it was a HORRIBLE meal. Maybe I need to go in person to see if the food will be any better. The quality of the food left much to be desired. From the moment I received my food, it was evident that something was amiss. The food had no smell to it. I was expecting to get Soul food and smell the Soul, but it was as if someone with NO culinary expertise made a dish. The menu boasted a variety of options, but the execution fell short of expectations. The dish I ordered arrived lukewarm and lacked the promised flavors. It's disheartening to see a restaurant with such potential fall short of delivering a satisfying meal.

Great food!!! Counter needs more hospitality training. People go out to eat for the experience. Besides the food, I wouldn't go back. Also, the restaurant needs a makeover.

The Greasy Spoon neat 1960 area is in a small strip mall benid a gas station. Pros; There is plenty of free parking The restroom was good The customer service tried really hard The food came out in a timely manner I liked the sweet cabbage Cons; Everything was OVERLY Salty, even the Lobster, The green were almost raw-tough Pork Chops were below average The yams came right out of a can. They didn't even try to fix them up. I believe we ordered a total of 4 meals. No one was overzealous about the food. I am so glad we came once. FYI: the customers had on pj's and bonnets. A couple complained so badly, the staff was professional with her. The staff gave her a new, completely FREE oxtail dinner. I believe she had done that type of thing previously. The customer spoke so badly about her food as she ate it. I didn't enjoy the location, the inside of the restaurant, or the customers. I didn't complain. We ate what we could. I supported once 🌞
