Reviews La Baguette Bakery & Bistro

A nice gem in our very own city of Katy! You won’t know this place exists if you are driving by in the area. Nestled in an established commercial warehouse area is this very cute Venezuelan cafe that opens all week. Right when you walk in, you are greeted by smiles and warmth. Then the place is lit with with modern farmhouse decor! They have a wide range of food and coffee from breakfast, lunch and dinner! Come check this place out! ChowChow Time!!

A hidden gem! The food was amazing! It took a while to get our food and we both got our plates at different times but the food was hot and freshly cooked. It was worth the wait. I will definitely be back.

Costumer service was great! This place is perfect if you're looking for great food and a relaxed atmosphere. Everything we ordered was delicious and their passion fruit juices was by far one of the best ones I've had so far in a restaurant. Highly recommend it!!!

Good food and the restroom was very clean. Update: the Picada was awesome!!

Great cappuccino coffee and homemade alfajores! Both not too sugary and great flavor. Classic plate is great and fulfilling. The chicken salad arepa is delicious and a good size meal. Highly recommend it.

Found this place on google search and absolutely loved it! Family run and delicious food. Love the ambiance and service. A must try for anyone in the area or looking for a new place to try out. I am a foodie and eat out often to try new food. I highly recommend this place. You won’t be disappointed.

I love this place. We came here often enough. The food is always fresh and HOT & the staff is great. Had the Criollo with chicken and Soursop juice. Yummy.

Came back after a years, since they change owner, food and service has improved enormously, I had the mini arepas, they were nice and crunchy, also order a ceviche, plate was more than enough fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is great, for a casual meeting or just to grab a bite. Will come back for more. ————————- First visit: Was not able to try it since they do not follow their business hours, the closed almost an hours before there posted sign. Hear great thing about the place but since they do not care about their clientele can’t spect much.

Came to this quaint and unassuming place about a year or so ago for a meeting. I was in the shopping center for a business visit and saw it and thought I would try it out. Quiet and had about 2 tables occupied by small groups of regulars. The lady that waited on me was very well versed on the menu and very warm and gracious. Found out that she was the owner only because I asked her. Nice lady was smiling and took my order and after a suggestion I orderer a Mateo Burger that came with avocado and muenster cheese which is not normal. I added bacon and as she should, she asked how many strips and told me the upcharge upnfront. Chose the seasoned fries and ordered a latte and water. Brought drinks out fast and was very prompt and pleasant. The latte was great and had the raw sugar steamed in the milk I asked for. Price was good for the size and quality. Burger and fry presentation was very good and simple. They advertised the meat to fresh and never frozen and didnt disappoint. Perfect ratio of soft yet firm bun, crisp and clean not wilted veggies. Tomato was organic and delish( I usually dont like tomatoes because most places have soggy 2 day old prepped tomatoes. Bacon was crisp yet not fried in the fryer. Delish!! Fries came with a small ramkin of ketchup and was crisp and hot. Everything made to order and fresh. Nice, clean restaurant. Great service. Will definitely be back!! I am a picky person and this place did not disappoint. Great value for everything! GO check out Mayra's place.

Anyone who has ever had perfect gallo pinto knows that it ranks as one of the great dishes of the planet. At it's most basic, it's rice and black beans, but at it's finest, it's speckled with chopped onion and peppers, flecks of fresh cilantro, and bursting with the flavors of Costa Rica's treasured Salsa Lizano (I very seldom see it for sale here and pick it up whenever I am in Costa Rica). When cooked in the right oil at the right temperature with a well-seasoned pan, usually at a simple "soda" on the side of a roadway, it's pure magic. My favorite add-in of all is Costa Rican natilla (a thick, rich slightly sour crema) and a little hot sauce (Crystal always works for me!). Gallo pinto goes with everything though best with a couple sunny-side up eggs, sliced avocado, and Costa Rica's ubiquitous tiny factory made tortillas (TortiRicas) at breakfast. And now, finally, I can say that there is a spot in Houston that serves an exemplary plate of this dish. I've visited tiny Venezuelan-owned La Baguette Bakery & Bistro in Katy (21821 Katy Freeway) on many occassions since they first opened about 5 years ago. Not only is their food top-notch, but they also make spectacular coffees and fruit drinks. And now, they offer more than just their scrumptious Venezuelan specialties, including a gallo pinto that should make any Tico proud. It is served with two eggs, a juicy chorizo, fried plátanos, and grilled cheese. And yes, they use REAL Salso Lizano! The only way it could be better is with a few slices of aguacate, a dollop of natilla, and some hot sauce for flavor. But it was so delicious, it nearly brought tears to my eyes. If you don't see it on the menu, just ask for the gallo pinto plate. It's served all day. This place is sweet and small and located just off the south feeder on I-10, just east of Mason, behind the Discount Tire (take a right on Mason Creek and enter the parking lot at the first turn to the right). The lady who runs it has put her heart into this business, and it shows in the food. Katy has become a true dining destination--this place is one of my 3 favorite places to eat in the area. And I can't stress enough--don't pass up this gallo pinto!
