Best WLM Reviews
Went today on this beautiful November day. They have recently remodeled. New bar area and a lot more open seating.
Wings were great, and the loaded fries were the perfect crispyness. Oh, and you can't beat $1.99 side salad, and $3.00 Margherita's ????
The food is pricy for the portion size but in their defense they do send out coupons and promotions - so decent pricing can be had if you are selective when you eat here. I do wish the portions were larger though. Menu has lots of variety. Their service is not good most of the times I have been here. For as many people as they have working and as relatively small as the building is - they always seem slow to visit your table and check on you. Atmosphere is great. If the weather is nice, or there is a good game on - this is the place to meet up. Lots of drinks on the menu and whether drinking inside or out it’s a great atmosphere. All in all - I definitely recommend for casual dinning.
I'm not sure why we haven't been here before! The food was delicious and the atmosphere when we were seated outside was great. Not sure about the inside. We had a toddler with us so it made more sense to sit outside which we're happy we did because it was a wonderful evening. And that's saying a lot for Houston weather. Service was great! The server brought everything promptly and it was a Sunday evening so it was definitely starting to fill up but glad it wasn't a long wait. She even bought crayons and paper for the little one. I had a brownie to go and it was packed so meticulously. Honestly if you're thinking of getting the brownie, just do it! It was the best one I've ever had in my existence. Everything was quite affordable too! Will definitely be coming back and going down the menu to try different things.
We appreciated the coupons we received in the mail, so we decided to pick up our meal on Friday night before our road trip. We were happy to find that we could place an order at our car for takeout. This was very convenient for us and unexpected. Our order taker was kind and friendly. Our food came out hot.
Had we eaten inside like we had in the past, I would have requested my burger to be corrected. It was quite pink! I wasn't asked how well done I wanted it, nor did I think to ask. Unfortunately, we
were already on our way out of town.
When we have gone in the past, our kids love using the sandbox. I enjoy the food, though it is usually very salty, so for health reasons, we rarely choose Willie's on our family eat out night.
The tables were dirty and it was like pulling teeth to get someone to clean them. We got assistance from a manager or bar tender and he decided to take our tickets and not fill only part of our drinks drink order. My son was pretty much done eating before he got his drink from the bar. Fried pickles were too salty. Mushrooms were good but burned my husband's lip. The did was nasty. Kelso sucked. First and last experience.
It’s been on my list to stop here for at least 6 months. I finally made it. I really liked the atmosphere. It was unique and interesting to look at. I was surprised with the ordering line. Did not expect that. I thought it would be a traditional sit and order venue.
The order was prepared timely. Had a burger and sweet potato fries. The burger was ok, the fries had been sitting a while somewhere. They were not too freshly made, and a bit chewy and cool.
Service was good and employee dls were very polite. I welcomed the politeness, they were trained well.
I may be back to try a different menu item. They offer burgers, tacos, seafood, and chicken.
They've recently (in the last year) made some changes to their dining room. They added a bar to sit at. There are lots of TVs to watch just about any sport. The food is decent, burgers and the sandwiches are the best. Our 15 month old likes the pulled pork and the Mac and Cheese. They do have outdoor seating.
This place has been around for as long as I can remember. The staff is always friendly and the food is reliable. While I wouldn't say that the food is exquisite, it's good for what it is.
I had the fried catfish and a garden salad. The flavor of the catfish was decent, but the portion size for the price was very underwhelming. I have high expectations for fried catfish. You can blame my grandmother for that. The salad was okay. And their ranch dressing and tartar sauce were good. Lol.
My kiddo ordered the Lil Willie burger and fries. The burger was good compared to some places that serve kids burgers. The fries were just okay. I know this because there were plenty left over. They usually get devoured.
The restaurant is dated, but again, you know what to expect every time you go in. This is a restaurant that we only go to about twice a year for a reason. It's not bad and it's not great. Their prices are not on the higher end, but they're not cheap for what you get.
