Went for trivia night, when we got there we found out they quit that. So just ordered and app and some drinks. During that time 3 other groups came in for the same thing but left as soon as they found out no trivia. Waiter said something and I told then "if you all quit that maybe you should post on...

My second time here. Both times started off really good. The first time the waiter was non responsive. Allowed our food to sit and get cold. The food had been ready but he was just too lazy to do anything. The second time i ordered an omelette with fruit instead of hash and sides of bacon and avoca...

Food was bland and cold. I had the steak and eggs. There were 4 in my group and it took 40 minutes to get our food. 3 of the 4 of us gor our food while 10 minutes later the 4th person got his food. Service sucked as well. Slow and not friendly. It's unfortunate because I really wanted to like this ...

Disappointment. Do yourself a favor and read the other comments. I just glanced at the one "$" and saw a review from outside of Google saying they had the best hamburgers in town. Far. From. That. Maybe before the new management that has been previously said by other Googleites. Overpriced. Seems th...

Lowbrow has had a menu makeover with change in management. The atmosphere is more uppity and the menu is much shorter and much more expensive. The service was fine, nothing bad to say about that. I would suggest a name change to keep confusion away. I had the rigatoni bolognese and it tasted like th...

Their chicken strips are delicious! We got one order with fries and one worth mashed potatoes. I personally prefer the mashed potatoes, but my husband and kids liked the fries. It's a laid back atmosphere and the kids loved playing with the old typewriter on our table. We will definitely be back!

Great location & the ambiance/decor is very Houston. Service for us was fine; we didn't feel rushed, which was great. The mild version of the spaghetti squash was way too spicy for me (I am admittedly a sissy when it comes to spicy food), but the catfish & brussels sprouts were both delicious. To th...

Just to preface- I'm reviewing this based on the brunch only. I haven't gone for lunch or dinner.

Anyways, the brunch is great. They have cheap carafes of mimosas (which instantly is a win in my book) and excellent food. My personal favorite is the eggs benedict, which comes on a biscuit inste...

This place is nice and not too crowded in a little neighborhood. The atmosphere is nice and the waiters are nice as well. We only went to get drinks on a Sunday, but the speed of the service was lacking a little with menus taking longer than expected

Good food, OK service..

Casual brunch spot that does not take advance reservations or large parties. I got a chicken spicy biscuit with a potato hash. It was good, but the service took too long to get menus and too long to wait. Also have to consider we went on peak brunch hour at 11-12. Sat in ...

I've determined that there are two types of great burger places in Houston. There are those establishments that specialize in great burgers, and those who offer a great burger on their menu. Lowbrow falls into the latter category. And, with the lineage of the Eatsie Boys bunch, the expectations h...

The food is okay, but it's all about the vibe here. When it's nice outside, it's so much fun to sit outdoors and have a drink and a meal. The burger is good and so is the grilled cheese egg in a hole. If you're walking around the museum district, it's a nice place to stop for a bite.

This place does not serve brunch all day like it says it does, very few options as what to eat, terribly slow service. Went for a friend's birthday celebration and Jessica, our waitress, did a horrible job attending us. I ordered the steak, and after waiting 30 minutes, she sends another waitress to...

I had the salmon plate and a frozen mojito, both of which I was talking Into by my excellent server. I don't think I came up for air until it was gone. What an excellent entree and drink! I highly recommend checking this place out.

The mimosas are good but the service was kinda slow. There were only a few tables so it's not like it was busy at all. Came in on a Sunday afternoon and the TVs outside were on infomercials. Surely there was something better on...Like football perhaps?

This was literally the worst service I've had in such a long time. I came here last night for my birthday celebration. The food was horrible, the service was mediocre, and the waiter was rude. The vibe of LowBrow is cool- but the overall experience is not worth it.

Stopped by this place for Saturday brunch. The mimosas are a tad bit more than average but was decent. The space inside is great and offers spacious booths for friends. I ordered off their brunch menu and had the chicken and waffles. The waffle came in a fantastic Texas shape. One of the best waffle...

I gathered some of my girls to check this place out, they have some good beer selections, and the burger wasn't bad either. Its a small place but its perfect if you're looking for a small relaxing spot. Oh also on mondays they have a pizza and beer pitcher deal for only $20!!

We met our family there for brunch around 11am. Parking is hard to find, but they offer valet. Service was a bit slow and spotty. Had to continually ask for coffee refills. They had a DJ for the brunch crowd which made it virtually impossible to have a conversation without shouting. A DJ for brunch?...

I've been here twice and both times the service has been terrible. We received our food one hour after we ordered. The biscuits were cold and hard, the fried chicken was overly breaded. I'm so disappointed. The Lazy Daisy drink was pretty delicious.

Discovered this place years ago, and it remained my favorite place for a phenomenal, black bean burger. Went there recently and everything has changed! So if you're into the Heights/ Montrose type joint, this is no loner for you . It now has a Uptown/River Oaks feel. Yuck. They always suck the li...

Lowbrow is a great place to drink a beer, especially on the patio, especially especially since they always have several Houston brews on tap. I have also had the chicken fried black bean burger (genius idea) and the kale Caesar salad both were delicious. Minus one star (it would be minus 1.5 if I ...

Sooo good, I really like their chicken biscuit and grilled cheese that they have for brunch. Also the pozole is the best! Dunking grilled cheese in that is next level amazing. I haven't gone here outside of brunch though, but it doesn't get busy until maybe noon so you can find a place to sit easily...

Lowbrow has been a go to spot for me for the last few years until recently. The menu has been upgraded along with the cost. Some of the best menu items have been removed including the yummy Juicy Lucy. Last time we went the new management were in the process of changing the decor and the menu. A...

Okay, so I never leave reviews online but my experience at Lowbrow was horrible enough to compel me to do so. Dan was our server and I don't remember ever being waited on by someone as condescending or slow as he was. At the end of our meal, I asked if it was possible to get separate checks, knowing...

Definitely is taking a turn for the worse since it's inception. Apparently they are trying to "revamp" the place by making the menu more expensive and the vibe less unique. The food wasn't as good the last time we went, and the wait staff were having to scramble to keep up with the bumbling kitchen ...
