The food was good, just not as good as I remembered. I ordered Chicken fried Chicken with Mashed potatoes and gravy; also broccoli and carrots. And chocolate cake.

Treebeards has been consistently good for the thirty+ years I’ve been eating there. Their menu doesn’t have a ton of variety, but that’s in their favor, because what they do cook is on par with any white tablecloth restaurant despite serving everything off of a steam table. I think they still rotate some dishes on different days, so be sure to check in ahead of time to ensure they’re serving catfish (for example) if that’s what you want.

We ordered 2 cakes, strawberry and Italian Cream- a few months ago when my daughter passed. The Italian Cream was wonderful as always; but the Strawberry was not good- everyone who tasted stated the icing was sour. So, we had to throw it away. We all make mistakes so I will patronage Treebeards, but will not get the Strawberry cake- maybe receipe changed- that’s why I gave 3 stars on food- money wasted.

I have been eating here for 25+ years. Get the red beans and rice. The rookie plate is also a very good choice.

This a fabulous spot for those spontaneous group lunch events. Big tables with ample space for all your officemates. Fast buffet lines and wide variety of Louisiana inspired menu. Delicious gumbo, red beans and rice, jambalaya, etc. Great prices for quality food at about $10 per person. And, what’s really neat about this place is that it is in a fellowship hall for an active church, the place is differentiated and fun experience too.

This was a very interesting place. It is a traditional meat and three in a church. The food was very true to southern style recipes. It is also very much a locals spot. If you’re in downtown Houston looking for a good experience while supporting a good charitable experience check it out.

I was unaware that Treebeards was in this church. Great food. Visited the book store. Bought a book. Was able to tour the cathedral. Wow! It was beautiful. Found our this is the oldest non-Catholic cathedral in Texas. You have to try this place!

Food is okay but has made my stomach hurt on several occasions. The mashed potatoes were below average while the meat was above. I would recommend Mia’s table. Better quality food and better bang for your buck. You cannot compare the fried chicken from Mia’s Table
