Find down-home breakfast faves pork chops & eggs and biskits & gravy , or go for the pankakes or waffle if you're craving something a little sweet. For a little breakfast fun, try the Green Eggs & Ham !

I've known people who have flown into Houston just to get these chicken and waffles . They are that good. Chicken-fried chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans on Thursdays are a favorite.

Allen Arcade

You can call this breakfast if you want. All I know is that its yummy. They have separate batter for chicken and fish . ...yes they sell the batter for your own fish fry at home.

Patti King

The wings & waffle is my go to here! Always hot & fresh, along with the fruit bowl I always add! Customer service is always superb! Expect a crowd and maybe a little wait but it's worth it!

Epicurious

Our insider tip: Slather butter on the waffle , cut up the waffle with a knife and fork, then use your hands to tear pieces of chicken off the wings , dipping each combined bite into syrup . Read more

11:45 on Sat - line was long but super fast! The operation is amazing. You order/pay before seated—saves a lot of time. Kettlefish was so juicy! Grit was too buttery for me but overall very delicious.

Jared Schaffer

You will order the chicken and waffles . You'll ask yourself do I really want to spend 20 bucks on breakfast ? And then you will tell yourself yes, I do, and enjoy the best fried chicken in the city .

Denise Hernandez

AMAZING FOOD, INCREDIBLE SERVICE. The owner and manager came by our table to personally ask us how we were doing, welcome & thank us. The wings & waffle were delicious. Can't want to come back.

Brian Canady

I had the French toast with eggs and bacon and my goodness was it heavenly. Must have. Buddy had the omelette and wife had fish and grits . Their fish was seasoned to perfection!

M B

Worth driving in torrential rain to finally try this spot. Had one of the signature dishes (catfish & grits ); so good! The GM, Terry, is handsome and friendly . Very welcoming place with good soulfood.

Ryan Michael

Katfish and grits is a MUST. Portions are huge; I always have leftovers. The lemonade here is also amazing and comes bottled at the counter! Celebs love visiting this spot when they're in town !

Deborah Gomes

Line was long worth the wait my Wafflle And Chicken fluffy and chrispy BTW Large portions my food took up my plate was only able to eat a corner of my wafflle Catfish and gritts next time

Social News Network

By far the best breakfast place in Houston. The line wraps around the building sometimes, but it is definitely worth every minute you wait. Catfish and grits , wings and waffles ... mm mm mmm

George W

Everyone says Wings and Waffles , they're right! I'm from the upper Midwest and I never had better grits in my life, really! This place is a "Cash Cow" and they deserve every cent! Go here, really!

Mya Walker Lawrence

The food is amazing! I always stop by whenever I'm in Houston! Best kept secret!

Charmaine Cotton

THE BEST! The food is great and worth the wait. Chicken and waffles are good but it is better with French toast . The French toast is great with pecans on top. Atmosphere is wonderful and friendly .

Sarah Davidson

You can't not order the wings - they are life changing. The pancakes are huge and fluffy and delicious, especially with their house hot syrup on top. The French toast is the bomb.com.

Mary

Enjoyed the service and food. You all really need a bigger place. Its impressive from a distance to see long line outside the doors but a turn off as well . I'll visit again when you expand.

Stephanelle Jones

Fish so delicious you'll be leaving with a bag if fish fry on the way out. Grits were marvelous, biscuits fluffy. Chicken so good my husband felt bad when he shared with me. So southern.

Djg4real

Waffles and chicken voilà amazing. Large Portions . I saw a dish of Fried Fish and Grits ’s next dish to try. Lines long but moves pretty quick

Social News Network

This restaurant is wonderful. The line will be wrapped outside the door and the grits are amazing. Ask for their hand squeezed lemonade as well and arrive before 12pm if you don't want an hour wait.

Manuel Villasmil

Great place and ambient, flavorful food probably not the cheapest place but definitely worth it... If you're into BIG breakfasts .

Desireé

Host was very nice. Get the wings and waffles (at least once in your lifetime ... u won't regret). Coffee is not that good.

Shah

100% worth the wait. Best biscuits & gravy I’ve ever had. Best chicken wings I’ve ever had. Outrageous.

Katie Chadbourne

Houston institution. Catfish 'n grits and biscuits 'n gravy for sure. Third best is wings 'n waffles . Get ready for salt & butter overload. Lines get long.

Brittany Barfield

So worth the wait! Are the wings and waffles and husband got the catfish and grits . ???? you will not regret this decision.

They had an overflow room today which was really nice since it was raining hard. Pretty expensive for a glass of mimosa . $5 is a bit much. Overall,we always enjoy our time at TBK. The grits are good

Staffs were attentive and friendly . A little bit pricey for the breakfast . The fried chicken was okay but not as crispy and tender as i expected. Coffee was just okay. Grits and eggs were amazing.

Barry Kwok

The wings , grits , and waffles are massive and tasty. A choice of coffee and lovely lemonade .

W. Ross Wells

Simply the best breakfast in America ... people talk about the waffles and wings . I like everything here. The al dente grits are an art form.
