Get directionsI have always liked the Katz chain, but this location is the exception. This location is brand new and I would hope to see it thrive under new management.
Too few services people on duty's. The restaurant was not crowded but still very slow. Food was very mediocre. Will not be going back
I have eaten at Katz in Austin for a Christmas diner and thought I would drop by and see if they had a Thanksgiving meal. They said yes and I said okay. When I got home with the food I was totally disappointed. The meat was deli meat and two carbs, dressing and mashed potatoes, carrots, brown gravy and cranberry sauce not berry. Not what I expected. The meal in Austin was delicious and Katz himself was there.
We walked in excited to try the new location. Immediately, the hostess was unsure where to seat us. She said nearly every table in the place needed bussing. The hostess then complained that they would have to bus tables in order to find a place for us. No problem, we said, we would sit at the bar. Well, the person working behind the bar kept her back to everyone while she was washing dishes in the sink. No one was going to get a menu or any service. Finally, we decided to leave. Terrible service. Unfortunately, this locatio... read more
Went yesterday for lunch because I was craving NY Deli food and especially a chopped liver sandwich. I was shocked to find out that Katz had completely revamped their menu. No more real Deli food. No chopped liver, blintzes, matzo ball soup, ..... Highly disappointed as they have turned into another Jason's Deli except with 3x the price. Looks like Kenny and Ziggy's from now on for me. THATS real deli food. My last time ever going to a Katz.
The good: Beautiful location with spacious outdoor patio for the kids to run play and adults to catch up on sports via the TVs. Customer service was warm and friendly and the food arrived promptly. Plenty of reasonably priced kids meals with many options for sides and drinks. The bad: Food was just not good. Sweet potato fries came out cold, chicken hero had chicken that tasted like rubber and bread that was clearly frozen heated and then soggy. Fried potato thing was so incredibly salty it was almost inedible. Nobody loved... read more
The space is shiny, clean and new. As we walked in expectations were high for the new foray in efforts to spruce up a steadily declining Westheimer. But, alas, those hopes were dashed when the food arrived. We're not much for pastrami or corned beef - maybe those items are winners for people so inclined. We took the kiddos. Generally over-salted and sweetened was the theme. Felt like we stepped back 15 years, and not in a good way. Lemonade was Minute Maid - gross. Orange juice was concentrate. Smoked salmon ... read more
Ordered the skinny version of their pride...the corn beef sandwich. There was very little meat and way too much coleslaw and dressing. The 3 slices of meat were so dry and flavorless that the dressing couldn't cover the terrible meat. It also looked like it was cut/sliced earlier instead of when you order it. By the way you do NOT get chips or fries with the sandwiches. You have to pay $2.99 for about 8 chips. Paid almost $21 for the sandwich, chips and water plus tip and still left hungry. Went to Jason's down the ro... read more
Service was good but the experience was not worth $31 for a mediocre sandwich, fries, soda, tax & tip.
