stay away...
Posted by lulumax on 06/28/2008
We went for Sunday brunch, and we left regretting every minute of it. Our intestines STILL haven't recovered...The orange juice tasted like it had spoiled (and when we told our server, she said that we were not the first people to say that!), the tables were filthy, the bacon was mostly fat, the eggs were cold, and the syrup was stale (and in a dirty, sticky bottle no less). To add insult to injury, our waitress was awful (maybe she was hungover??). I hate to be so negative about a neighborhood establishment, but I wouldn't wish our experience on my worst enemy. Lesson learned!

Sunday Brunch...a meal that never happened
Posted by csteven1 on 06/15/2008
We'd heard from a few of our friends in the Heights that 11th St Cafe had a great Sunday brunch. When we got there, we thought it would be great since the place was packed. We ordered our food and waited 45 minutes before we even were told that it would be ready "in a few minutes." 15 minutes later they hadn't even started making our meal, even after a few people who came in after us had their food. To me, it's not worth the wait or price, the place is pretty dirty and dated and the waitstaff was not very helpful.

Good chicken-fried steak

Good chicken-fried steak. Good individual pizzas. Mediocre side dishes. But excellent service, quite attentive and pleasant.

Eleventh Street Cafe
Posted by ludrew on 01/05/2008
We went to the 11th Street Cafe because we always hear how wonderful their pizza is and wanted to go try it for ourselves. We sat down at a table 15 minutes before 5 PM and wanted to order a pizza, which they refused to serve because it "wasn't 5 o'clock". We then ordered a bowl a chili, the first bowl they brought out was cold ... half-way through the second bowl we found a hair in it. The chili tasted like it was out of a can, the crackers they were stale. We ordered two salads, both recommended by the waiter. They were terrible! On top of that their house coffee tasted like burned coffee that had been sitting on the warmer for 2 days. No matter how amazing everyone tells you the pizza is, the 11th Street Cafe is not worth going to with terrible food and terrible service.

it'll make a turdd
Posted by heightsregular on 07/09/2007
I like going here because you get served fast. If you like army style square omlettes, and enough grease to give you stomach cramps afterwards, then this is the place for you. A heck of a lot better than Andy's down the street, but that isn't saying much.
Waitstaff is very friendly. Love that part of it.
If it weren't for them, I don't think I'd come back.

AMAZING PIZZA & PHILLY CHEESE STEAKS
Posted by johnfrels on 06/17/2005
OK...ALL of their food is great...but...their pizza chef should win some sort of blue ribon award! The crust is wonderful and the toppings are top quality!
The Philly Cheese Steak...has to be the best I've had in Houston! They ship the rolls in fresh from Philly, the meat is tender and very flavorful, and the cheese melts in beautifully!

Declining
Posted by mtbrothe on 12/28/2002
I used to love this place, but they have reduced their portions by 50% and kept the prices the same. I just can't justify going there now. Sad.

Great place, great food
Posted by redjellibean34 on 08/12/2002
Small, but wonderful. The food is just like mom used to make, and it feels just like your sitting in your own kitchen.
I love this place, and think the food is something to be enjoyed.

"Sunday Morning Coming Down"
Posted by Staton on 07/29/2002
Kris Kristofferson could not have written a
better title for 11th Street Cafe. Perfect on a lazy Sunday, (or even an active antique shopping one) the food is quick and cheap, with plentiful coffee, and served with just enough greasy spoon attitude. Plus, everyone is as hungover as you! I prefer hash browns to the big chunks they serve, but hey.....when that is your only real complaint, it's time to shut up. Don't forget to try their pizza for dinner--delicious!
