The Marigold Café — Restaurant in Houston

Sweet little The Marigold Cafe (7676 Hillmont), located within an office building that looks non-descript from the outside but is of a very unique design inside. The cafe is run by a wife/husband team, and the dishes feature a delightful Caribbean flair, from the spices used on the fries (frozen, but they are sensational with the spices coating them), the curry in several of the dishes, and offerings such as "Island Spice" pancakes and waffles made with cinnamon and nutmeg.

We went with an excellent bacon cheese burger, cooked fresh to order, and a heaping side of those wonderful spiced fries. The highlight of the meal was the green power smoothie, a potent blend of kale, spinach, mango, banana, pineapple, and ginger. I definitely felt invigorated after that one! If you are up on the NW side of town, exit off 290 at Hollister, go south to Hillmont, then hang a left till you see this building. This hard-working, kind couple will make you...

We were on this side of town for business. We did a quick Google search for restaurants nearby and this came up as the closest and had great reviews. I was a bit apprehensive when I saw it was inside an office building but decided to try it anyway... Glad we did. The two people there were so friendly and kind. The man brought the food out to us in the lobby area and we decided to just find a place to eat there instead of in the car. The food was delicious. Those fries. Fresh, hot and most importantly crispy. I don't live in Texas but would consider visiting this lovely little Cafe next time I'm in town. Wish it was a little more of a public Cafe. I would love to sit and enjoy the meal there. I also need to mention that although they had quite a few orders, the man would run around the office building delivering food. I hope the people who get to take advantage of that...

I’m from Louisiana and I’m always looking for some good ole meat smothered in some gravy & rice & im so happy I finally found something to satisfy my craving! I ordered the beef patty steak with gravy and mashed potatoes and steamed brocoli.. that gravy was so rich and flavorful! Mrs. Cynthia & Mr. Paul are so nice & welcoming & they really put their love into their food!! DELICIOUS! Will...
