The service was not good at all. We felt there was racial discrimination at this beautiful tavern. When we got there it took about 15 minutes for waitress to come welcome us. Once the waitress get our drinks and food ordered it took longer than any else around us to get served. All the other tables we being served quickly and more attentively than us. We waited 30 minutes for our second drink at that time decided that the tavern is not for us.

Let me start with the positives. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. The salmon dish was good and not over cooked. But there are many opportunities for improvement. The serving staff did not know the menu well. I asked about gluten free options and was asked if that just meant “no bread”. I ordered that salmon without sauce and it was good. My friend ordered the chicken and it was VERY dry. I ordered the Friendswood 75 cocktail and it was very good. But then my friend ordered it and it was a different color. When asked about it, they said that they ran out of one of the ingredients so they substituted it. Shouldn’t the wait staff have asked if that was ok? All in all, the food is too expensive to have such poor service.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options are limited.

I was apprehensive about eating her because of the recent negative reviews. The place was fantastic. Met a group of friends here for a party of 10 and the service and food were very good. Will definitely be back! Had a lot of fun here with old friends.

Yesterday I was really excited to try something new. We arrived at b1895 Tavern @ 1115AM. We arrived and appeared to be the 2nd table in the restaurant. We where greeted by a young man that said hello and filled our water glasses. Shortly, our server Hailey arrived and she was just as cute as a button. Very happy, & very welcoming. I put in my sons pancake order while my boyfriend took a personal call. I asked to wait to order until I spoke with him. Sure, no biggie, right? Well I ordered off the lunch special and half turkey sandwich with a side salad. My boyfriend was still on the phone and could not make up his mind so I ordered my meal. Minutes later her chose the chicken tenders. We waited a good 30 minutes for our food. Well, here came his chicken tenders. Hunter was an absolute sweet soul went over the 6 sauces with us. My sandwich never arrived. The server kept saying she is breathing down the kitchens neck for my food, she kept saying 3 minutes, well, the food never came. At 12:06PM my son was done eating, and at this point, I ate my boyfriends chicken tenders and decided I didn't want the sandwich. I kindly went to Hunter and told her to please tell my server (who was in the kitchen talking to the cooks) I did not want my food. She was very kind and went to the kitchen and must of relayed my order. A lady from the back came and spoke to Hunter. This last had long braids. I am not sure what she said to Hunter but Hunter came to the table very frantic saying she was sorry over and over. I told her it was not her fault. I could tell that Hunter's body language and the cooks body language, the cook was not being so kind. I told Hunter not to worry about it. The server came out and said my food was almost done. I told her I didn't want it, to remove it from the ticket so we could leave. She was very kind too. So, long story short over an hour later I got my food to-go and the removed it from the ticket. I was expecting a visit from a manager. Not sure if Hunter was the manager or not. I do not think she was because after reading other reviews she was addressed as a server. I spoke with a few friends who have had the same encounter at this establishment. Obviously, there is a kitchen problem and the kitchen seems to be rude to the servers. Kuddos to Hunter and Hailey and shame on the women who came from the kitchen. *The table next to us came and got their food rather quickly, ate and paid*

First timers and last timers to B1895...We walked in about 6:05 last night, a Wednesday night, it wasn't very busy, maybe 1/3 full and the sign at front read "Please Seat Yourself", which we did. After waiting a few minutes, a young man came over with menus and water, we said thanks, he said nothing and walked off. NBD. We looked over the menu, figured out what we wanted, and we waited...and waited...and waited...and waited...and nothing. Nobody came over. My wife made eye contact with several employees, but still nothing. So after 15 minutes of sitting there, we just got up and left. It's a shame, we don't live in the area, and drove about 20 minutes to try it. Anyways, we went next door to Locals Kitchen & Market which was fantastic. So our trip wasn't totally wasted.

Expensive and only average food and service. There are definitely better restaurants in the area.

Took the family to eat at the restaurant for lunch/brunch. The waitress took 25 minutes to come out and tell us that what we ordered (chicken fried steak) was not available. She spent the majority of her time talking to people at another table. After we waited forever for our burgers I went to the other table and asked about our food. In about 5 minutes they came out with the food. The two medium rare burgers were dry. The buns were burnt on all the burgers. The meat on my burger was cold. Very disappointed in the wait staff and the food. We have eaten there before and it was fine. What has happened to the place?

Slow service. Weirdest chicken fried steak I ever saw, HOWEVER the seasoning was great and so was the meat! Friends did NOT care for the wine selection and weren't happy with the French fries.
