Midway Food Market — Local services in Katy

Many in or out of Katy are familiar with our iconic Midway BBQ. Fewer people are aware of its sister operation Midway Meat Market and Deli, just a short drive down the street. Being in the area today I decided to give it a try.

The enviroment of the small space is both homey and small town. The look and feel is more what you would expect while on a hunting trip than a big city “deli.” The hunting and fishing trophies scattered about add to this feal. They are located in a smaller shopping center, but the interior is very comforting.

The menu is heavy on burgers, BBQ, and such along with breakfast staples. They also have specials every day of the week. Today being Friday, and never being one to pass up a Philly Cheesesteak I ordered the combo since it was today’s special. Even though I arrived late into breakfast, but not quite lunch time the counter staff did not skip a beat when I ordered from the lunch menu when most seemed to be still ordering breakfast.

My order came in a resonable amount of time. The roll was obviously freash and very soft. The roast beef was some of the most tender I have ever tasted, and was well seasoned. The peppers and the rest of the filling added a pleasant contrast in flavors that was far from overpowering. The mac and cheese i had as my side was warm and creamy, but the noodles were not cooked to death.

The next time you are in Old Katy pay them a visit at 5901 Highway Blvd. they are open 8am -7pm seven days a week. I doubt you will find disappointment...

Idk anything about the sandwiches or deli, that appears to be where all their not great reviews come from; I’m only talking about the meat market.

I challenge anyone to take meat from H‑E‑B and the same thing from this butcher shop and put them side by side and compare. You’ll immediately know the difference, I won’t buy meat from anywhere else if I can help it (time, laziness, etc). The NYs are perfection, ground beef, chicken, sausages, all very very good. They’ll also dress things however you’d like. I’ve asked them to run the fajita through tenderizer a couple times, they’ll butterfly and tenderize chicken.

Do not sleep on their marinated fajitas, they’ve become a weekly staple.

My only wish is that they had ground sausage for my chili and some other dishes.

I didn’t know this but they can also do bigger roasts like queen and king cut prime ribs.

Editing to 3 stars: don’t say you’re open until 7 and close early, I went through a bunch of traffic I didn’t have to go to to try to get here only to find out 7pm doesn’t mean 7pm. Especially if the guy behind the butchers counter is standing there looking just...

Called this location earlier today to inquire About meat packages. Spoke with a male. He stated that I could come in but they won't take any phone orders. I drove over 30 mins in the rain to this location to be told they have meat packages but they are not for sale. I was told that I can purchase the meat separately at ridiculous pricing that would double the price of the actual meat package. I've used this location in the past and thought that they were awesome. In times like these when things are scarce and all you want to do is feed your family Midway should be ashamed. Then on top of it the woman at the register has the nerve to get nasty when I let her know that this was terrible customer service especially after we called before we came. Very upsetting And I will not be coming back to any establishment associated with this company ever...
