That's My Dog

Food was great. Enjoyed being able to enjoy an awesome dog and some soul food. The team members made me feel at home and the service was excellent.
Look forward to going back soon!

We were sloppin it up so no pics, but who's surprised ? Anyways,,, really yummy and our server was quick w the refills which is always appreciated bc I love a good drinky drink. I don't have much to say but it was lowkey expensive. Go here on a date w someone you've been w for a bit or w some friends. Or go by urself,,, idc. Love me a small business

I need another job
- Deez :P

Katy is rarely a destination for me unless I have to physically stop so yesterday I decided while in the area I would support a black-owned business for lunch. I was drawn to That's My Dog because of their offerings-especially the Keto Bowl. It did not disappoint. The brisket was tender and the flavors were a perfect savory and sweet blend. The sweet tea was sweet in all the right ways. The servers and staff were almost polite and despite there being a large party ahead of me, I still received my food quickly. Owner Kevin was on-site and greeted everyone and visited with the guests. I also appreciated that the tables had notecards encouraging people to give reviews. One of the parties included military personnel and I overheard Kevin thanking them for their service and giving them a military discount.
One thing to know you can also order from Aunt Bill's which is a soul food restaurant and the primary focus. To avoid getting distracted I only looked at the That's
My Dog menu. Check out this business and support them as they support the community.

Quick notes:
It shares space with a soul food restaurant.
The place is super clean and it smells strongly of chemicals.
There is an automatic 15% gratuity added to all orders.

Pros:
I had the Brisket Dog and it was delicious.
The one dude working there waiting tables was gracious and respectful.

Cons:
It took over 45 minutes to get 3 hotdogs. 1 of which was drowned in ketchup in a comedic manner. It was sent back only to be done incorrectly the second time. All of the tables around us were constantly pulling the wait staff over to request their missing food items.

Overall opinion:
If you really want to try the brisket dog (which is amazing) maybe call in your order in advance. People genuinely seemed to like their food when it arrived and arrived correctly. Also, maybe they won't charge you the 15% gratuity for some hotdogs *shrug*.

After leaving another restaurant where I could not get anyone to take my order, I had the opposite experience here. I was approached quickly by not one but two servers offering to take my order. Both had a big ol' Colgate smile and a nice and accommodating attitude. I ordered a "Dirty Dog" and a half order of "Mexicali Fries". I could not eat all the food and it was delicious. During my meal, I was approached by four employees who were all pleasant, all of them asking how the food was and if I needed anything else. Great job, That's my Dog", good food, good service and the place was clean and neat as a pin. You are on my return list!

Order was placed online with ease; I liked that I could easily customize my order.

When I came to pickup my food, I was told that I had to go through the drive thru. This wouldnt be a problem if the drive thru didn't have 3 cars waiting to place orders. It doesn't make sense that I could not pick up my food inside but would have to wait 30+ minutes for my food that is "ready". My food obviously won't be fresh with this pick up system.

I will come back and edit my review depending on the food, but so far I am pretty disappointed.


***updating review based on food. I would leave 4 stars but still was not fond of pickup experience.

We got 2 hotdogs, fries and a fried fish plate. The portions are large for the price which is great. And the hotdogs themselves (chili cheese and the dirty dog) were pretty good, lots of flavor. I couldn't eat the whole thing! Also we got the banana pudding and that was our favorite! All in all, would recommend but be mindful if doing takeout!

It was pretty confusing finding the restaurant because it's inside of Aunt Bill's Soul Food Cafe, but there's a sign on the side that points towards the side/back that says it's for That's My Dog drive-thru orders. We drove around the building looking for a normal sign and entrance before we realized it was inside Aunt Bill's.

I expected a fast food set up where you order at a counter and they call your number for you to come get your food, but because it's mainly Aunt Bill's Soul Food Cafe inside, it's a "wait to be seated, your server will be out shortly" type of deal. Btw the menus have Aunt Bill's on one side and That's my Dog on the other.

We didn't want to do to-go because we live far, so we dined in. There was a very noticeable nail salon smell as soon as we walked in. I think there's a nail salon in the plaza, but I didn't think it was next door. Hopefully it doesn't always leak in, but it was very unpleasant in the beginning. Thankfully, we didn't notice it anymore by the time we got our food, but that was only because we had to wait 30 minutes for our food to come out and we probably just got used to the smell by then.

Most of the customers sitting were there for Aunt Bill's, and I think that's part of the reason it took so long for us to get our two hot dogs. It was pretty busy, but it felt like a lot of people had to wait a long time for their food too. Can't imagine that the drive-thru could take that long though so maybe that would've gotten priority.

The service was nice, quick, and helpful and the restaurant felt very clean. I'll probably order ahead and go through the drive-thru to skip the long wait though.

TEXACALI: I ordered a 6" dog but got a sausage dog instead. I wasn't upset about the free upgrade, but it was way bigger and harder to eat because of this lol definitely delicious though! Why hasn't anyone else put brisket on a hot dog before?! It was fantastic! Loved the slaw and bbq sauce too! It was definitely a fully loaded dog! The only downside was how messy it was and that I had to keep picking up the scraps that would fall, but it wasn't that big of a deal.

BIG SAM: This dog only comes in a sausage option, so it will always be big! It was delicious as well, but maybe even messier because of the mac n' cheese. There was a point where all of the mac n' cheese had fallen off lol so yeah, expect a delicious mess.

Our visit was pleasant.
Customer service was great and the food was okay.
There was so much cheese on it made the bread a little soggy for me,
if I return I'll definitely order with light cheese.
There is indoor and outdoor seating.
All in all a 4/5 for me, which is still pretty good :)
Updated review: I definitely have to try out the new location! Thank you to the owners for always responding. You guys are awesome

Great food !!! Hot Dogs are to die for !!! Don't forget the fries. Will definitely be back. Love the expanded place!!
Will definitely be back. You don't want to miss out

The service is always super friendly and nice! You and go wrong with this place. The brisket dog with spicy bbq sauce is our family favorite!
