Located in the ♥ of Katy, Texas….
Texas Tradition is a small, family owned and operated restaurant in old Katy. We opened our doors on August 10, 2002, and have been in operation ever since. Our menu consists of traditional comfort food like mom used to make. Mac & cheese, hand-pressed half pound burgers from fresh beef, country gravy with a touch of bacon grease for flavor. That’s the good stuff! And we have won several awards for our chicken fried steak. We take pride in our menu!
Our place is friendly and casual. Our servers know many of our customers by name, and will stop and take a minute to visit. The tea is sweet, and it pairs nicely with a basket of fried pickles or a scoop of peach cobbler.
Come on in make our place your home away from home. We’re not fancy….just real!
