Overall, the restaurant and food quality was excellent. My reservation was at 6:30 pm for 7 people and I was seated immediately by the hostess, with no wait! This was awesome considering the business of the Saturday night. On the other hand, my party of 7 was sat in a round table where it was slightly tight, but not a major issue. I believe a bigger table would have helped, but it was not terrible. I did leave a note on my reservation that it was for a birthday, so I wish that note would have been honored with an acknowledgement or a small complimentary dessert. That would have been very nice. Despite this, the food was great and appetizers and entrees came out in a timely manner. Our server was kind as well.

We had a party of 6, made reservations and was promptly seated upon arrival. Great bar selection. Waiter was great with food allergies in our party, knew what was safe and double checked with the chef anyway. Fried green tomatoes were perfect! I ordered the smoked double porkchop, let me just say it was the BEST porkchop I have EVER had!! Cooked perfectly and evenly throughout the chop, and the taste was unbelievable. Will definitely be returning.

Family dinner to celebrate a birthday. Everyone enjoyed their main entrees and food, but the highlight was the drinks and apps. The jalapeño hush puppies and fried green tomatoes were a hit. I enjoyed my meal of shrimp and grits and the mule was on point. Definitely recommend and will revisit to try some of the burgers on menu.

After a false start at the Sugar Land location, I decided to come to the Memorial State Fare for the last weekend of Houston Restaurant Weeks. When we went to the Sugar Land location, they were still doing brunch service and only offered the HRW lunch. We had really wanted to try the HRW dinner, and the waitress told us they do it with the dinner service starting at 4 p.m. So I decided to try again on my own a day later at the Memorial location. It was...okay. The service was a little slow, but I think it was because the kitchen was still backed up from transitioning from brunch service to dinner service. The food was good for the most part, but I feel like it could've been better. Where the restaurant really shines is its drink menu. This place has some of the best tasting cocktails in Houston. Food-wise, I actually think I preferred the brunch service. Again, the food at the dinner service was decent for what it was, but it didn't blow me away. But the dishes I'd had at the brunch service over in Sugar Land were very well made. Overall, I think this would make a great place to go to happy hour. The cocktails are just fantastic, and I'm sure they have some good deals on food too to go with them. Brunch would be my second recommendation if you're not into happy hour. Would I ever go back? Hmmm, maybe. If someone invited me, I likely would. But I don't know if I personally would return on my own accord. It's a mixed bag for me. So, below it asks would I recommend this place to a friend. I'm still checking yes, but know that 'yes' is with certain stipulations.

Our table was ready to accommodate our party. However, our server did not greet us until after 15 minutes. The host had to leave the booth and provide us with water while we waited. The turnaround time for our drinks and food was longer than usual.

Horrible. Simply horrible. Expensive, poorly made southern fare with subpar service that required 20% “gratuity” for a table of 5. Our server, while a nice enough girl, only came by three times. Luckily, we were seated near the server’s stand and I was able to grab the water pitcher to pour us refills—she certainly wasn’t going to do it. We will never dine here again.

State Fare is nothing special. Food was flavorful. Service was friendly but elementary and untrained. Shouting is required for conversation. Seemed everybody was going through the motions and checking boxes, but nothing unique or special about the food, atmosphere, drinks, or service. Other than gimmicky dishes and portions, it was as genuine as the trick games at the State Fair. There's a reason for the unfilled seats at 7PM on Saturday.

The Birria Grilled Cheese sandwich was really tasty, nice ambiance & you HAVE to get the flight of frozen margaritas-SO good! Our waitress was adorable & very kind, don't remember her name but she had short hair & pretty eyes. The whole menu looked good so we were very indecisive but her knowledge & recommendations helped a lot. Will be back!

I was so excited to try this place out. It was just okay. A bit over priced. I ordered the Pesto Grilled Cheese and the server suggested adding chicken to it so I did. Someone else in my party got it without chicken. When they brought it I asked if I had the correct one and was told yes. After taking a few bites realized I did not have the correct one. Shouldn't have had to pay for the $8 chicken when it was given to someone else at the table but we did. Food was good but the drive is far and so I wouldn't rush back.

I scheduled a reservation for a birthday dinner. The staff was amazing. We stay a little past closing but we never felt rushed. My only pet peeve of the whole night was when the valet team member returned my keys to the table and immediately commented that he works for tip. Definitely classless and abruptly changed the conversation of a great night.

Met some friends for dinner. We waited a very long time for our adult beverages to be served. The food came out one at a time so we were just sitting there waiting for the last person to get their food before we started eating. The noise level was horrible, we were screaming at each other. I had such a headache when I left. There was an extra charge of $2 for a substitution on my salad. I wish they would’ve told me and I would not have made a change. My salad with chicken ended up to be $28 and it was very so so.I am sure we will never go back there. They will not miss us. There are plenty of restaurants in Houston with just as good food or a better food without the horrible noise level.
