Skeeters Mesquite Grill

Had dinner here last night and was very disappointed with the food and overall experience. The wife ordered a salad which she enjoyed. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich, this was not so good. The tiny chicken breast on a giant bun looked and tasted like a frozen chicken breast you get at the grocery store. Additionally, you have to pay for every extra «topping» you want, which generally is not a major issue but at 95 cents per topping (including cheese) is a bit much. So for 13 bucks I got a mediocre at best chicken sandwich with avocado and grilled onions and some onion rings. The bottom line with is that the food is not on par with the cost. I have no issues at this price point for great food. However, 34 bucks for two people to eat a salad and a chicken sandwich I think not. I could have gone to chick fil a and gotten a better meal for less. Overall a disappointing night out for a place that used to be fairly good, the service and food quality has gone down and the price point has went up. My recommendation is to try somewhere else, there’s better options in the Kingwood area.

Not really a BBQ joint (which most people get confused about), very much a grill restaurant with chicken, beef fajita and burgers. Their brunch on Sunday is crowded but serves huge portions (I suggest not getting the buffet). I recently ordered take-​out and it was ready within five-​ten minutes after my arrival. I was even offered a free glass of tea while I waited. I ordered a beef fajita burrito and it was massive. I cut it in half, ate one half, and saved the other for my lunch the following day. They give a generous helping of guacamole, rice and beans. Recommend this when you are just wanting something quick and yummy for dinner.

Awesome food. My wife and I usually share the big burger and an order of cheese fries, both of which are phenomenal. Food usually comes out quick. By far the best burger in Kingwood. Puts fudruckers to shame. Minus one star because they have a busser who is either really rude or just awkward. He’s the only one working in the eating area and whenever you ask him anything he’s just not helpful

Used to be a good place to grab a bite, but this place has gone downhill over the past several years. The food is nowhere close to what it used to be. A few of the other locations have closed, and I’m not surprised. Hopefully the owners can focus on improving the quality of the locations that are still in operation.

I am more of a healthy eater and rarely go to places that are mostly burger and fries kind of places, but my kids end up choosing this place sometimes so…
The game room is small and a huge mess but my kids never complain. There is plenty of parking and a few tables outside. Line to order is always a bit backed up.
I like that you can draw on the paper they put on the tables, keeps everyone entertained. They have tvs for sports and pretty good burgers.
I get a salad most times and they do have a decent variety. I’ve never been overly impressed by a salad but I like that they have the option.

This use to be one of my favorite spots to enjoy a good burger. The service was never great but the food was good. It is expensive (really expensive based on such poor service).
My wife and I ate here during the middle of a Saturday and the restaurant was not busy at all. We did order chip and queso for an appetizer, and 2 burgers. When we ordered the appetizer the young lady taking the order called out for it so we would get it first. I saw the guy put the cheese in the bowl and chips on a plate and put it on the counter for it to be delivered. We finished ordering and sat down with our number. My wife and I sat there for 10 min waiting as the 6 tables in the entire restaurant got served food, all the while our chips and queso sat on the service line. Finally I guy came by and I said to him «we are still waiting on the chips and queso that we ordered for an appetizer,» he looked right at me and did not say a word and kept cleaning the table. Finally, my wife just goes up and gets it and amazingly the queso was cold. It had that film on top of the cheese that looks like the top layer of paint that has been sitting out awhile.
Let me throw this little fact in the mix fellow Unilocalers, they had about 15 people working at the time, and this place does not have servers just food runners! You get you own refills for goodness sake!
Anyway, we sat there and had about three chips with the Sherwin Williams Queso. When the food arrives at the table. The guy that delivered the food put it on the table without saying a word.
At that point I thought «ok it is me for some reason»
When he put the food down and did not say anything, I figured what the Hell, «Man you mind bringing me some mustard?».
Oh boy that was the wrong thing to ask!
That dude looked at me and turned around without saying a word. I looked at my wife at that point and said «Do I have, This D-​Bag Does Not Tip, written on my forehead or something!»
Again I have yet to say anything so far about the prison style customer service I’m receiving to any manager or supervisor.
The guy comes back with the mustard and sets it on the table and looks at me.
I was tempted to say «I said Honey Mustard»
But I did not! LOL
So we sat there and ate staring at our yellow paint in a bowl with chips.
The burger was good, and to my surprise they did not forget anything on the burger.
Horrible service overall. I would not recommend this place anymore. When we lived out in Kingwood we went to Skeeters at least once every three weeks. Hell, if my wife would not have went and got the Queso from the line, it would be sitting there for the next time we are their!
Oh wait there will be no next time.
If you want just as good of a burger and ALOT better service there is a Fudruckers right down the road!!!
Never Again!!!

Ate here with a friend for lunch, he had a burger and fries, I had chicken strips… Food was OK but nothing special. It took a long time to get our food out to us, and it must have been sitting. because it was not as hot as expected. This place used to be better years ago, but now it seems like the food is on par with fast food locations.

There used to be one near me but not anymore… I’ve always loved the fajitas here, they always cook the meat and the chicken perfectly and the service has always been great!

Skeeters blue cheese burger is my favorite. The fries aren’t my favorite and some of the other items are hit or miss. Love the atmosphere and service.

This restaurant has been around for a long time in our area. I think because they cater to sports teams and are involved in the community thus the ONE STAR. I went there on a Sunday at 2pm and the ac was barely cooling. Probably not the business fault I’m sure it’s an older building. I ordered beef fajita nachos and a large house margarita. The margarita was tasty and I could taste the alcohol, which is a plus for me as
not enjoy tasting the margarita mix and ice only. The nachos were a different story. The beef was not fajitas, it was more like pulled. pork that tasted like beef. The regular nachos come w ground beef AND that should have been the red flag. Any decent nachos should come with chicken or beef fajitas. Unless you are at taco bell. The staff was friendly and prompt though. If I do return again, I may give the food another try to be fair.

Love the smell.
You know it’s gonna be good when the smell of wood burning grill greets you. Food is always good along with very casual family atmosphere. I don’t like eating from plastic baskets but it all good.

Absolutely terrible. Everything looked and tasted like it was from an elementary cafeteria. Had to send my food back because of how cold it was… so bland that even my 7yr old commented that her burger «tasted like nothing». Wife’s food was cold and tasteless as well. We ended up paying and walking out. Save yourself the disappointment.

I’ve been coming to Skeeters for as long as I can remember. This is a great family restaurant and they are heavily involved in giving back to the community. Skeeters is fairly large, lots of tables and a couple of televisions. I love that each table is covered in paper with crayons on the table for entertainment while you wait for your food. I personally love getting the kid’s meals because they are a great portion of food but their burgers are also extremely good.

Good overpriced burgers with a terrible side of frozen bag fries. I hear this place used to be good but I don’t see it… Wish i knew before I took my girlfriend

This place surprised me. I was dragged here by my husband and not really wanting to be here. Nothing on the menu caught my eye (probably because of my bad attitude about the whole thing) so I quickly ordered the fajitas. Oh my, they were so good. I had to apologize to my husband for doubting him. This place is so good. Everything at our table was delicious including the kids meals. I will come again, eagerly this time.

I was here for Taco Tuesday, where they have 2 tacos for 7 dollars with chips and salsa. I got 2 of the original crispy, which were actually less then the 7 dollars and a manager was nice enough to give me 50 cents back haha.
The tacos tasted really fresh and homemade, as well as the salsa. The salsa was a little spicy for me, meaning it will probably be okay for everyone else because I am a wimp :-)
The restaurant is clean and roomy and there are plenty of spaces and booths to choose from. I would definitely come back here!

I always love this place to bring the kid. It’s loud and no one cares if she gets loud. However, the past two or three times we have been, the wait has been ridiculous. The food is good, but not worth a 30 – 45 minute wait with a toddler. the last time we went (yesterday) we waited in line for 10 minutes and it didn’t move. We left…
They really need to consider having more people on the register when it’s a busy weekend.

We have been here a small hand full of times since living inn the area. Breakfast was ok but there burgers are really good. We knew they had tvs so we came on Sunday to watch the Texans game. Figured it wouldn’t be as rowdy as other places. We can about 15 min before the game started to order food and noticed the tvs by us said it would be auto switching to the Ravens game. I got up to ask about having the Texans game on and the girl rudely said the one big screen would be Texans and the two smaller ones would be ravens. Well at 1206 there was still no Texans game on the big tv near us so we got up and left. All in all… good place for a burger bad place to watch a Texan game

Funny story… we were searching for a barbecue joint when we found this place on Unilocal.But they don’t serve barbecue. They serve mesquite-​grilled fajitas, shrimp, hamburgers, etc., and it is all awesome.
A little pricey, but worth it. Restaurant is locally owned, very clean, and all staff is friendly.
Plus, you can watch all the football games you ever wanted.

Didn’t know this place was here. Enjoyed breakfast!
