It's important to start the day off right, whether that means a power jam with the shower radio or the best Houston breakfast. And being as diverse as it is, Space City has tons of options--country, fancy, Tex-Mex and Cantonese--for the most important meal of the day. So however you take it, it's here for the scarfing.

This cozy Montrose favorite is definitely one of, if not the best Houston breakfast--and everybody knows it. But a decadent plate of green eggs and breakfast potatoes is so worth the wait.
Legendary chicken and waffles and catfish and grits keep lines out the door on weekend mornings. People don't mention the French toast as often but with a perfectly crispy exterior, it deserves a bigger rep.
The house baked goods are Tiny Boxwoods' calling card, from soul-warming sourdough with fresh jam to the vanilla-tinged chocolate chip cookies (yes, we eat them for breakfast).
Families flock here for a casual, down home breakfast with a Tex-Mex twist. The apple pancakes are as big as hubcaps and the pork chop special is an equally generous affair.
Whether you're craving a plain ol? bagel or a full spread of latkes, lox and egg salad, this is the place to go. Both a family and hangover friendly Houston breakfast.
Authentic Mexican breakfast plates like migas and chilaquiles get pumped up by the house roasted cinnamon coffee.
This breakfast-all-day spot makes die-hard fans out of Tanglewood locals with its paper thin flapjacks.
To walk into Rustika is to be faced with cases of pastry temptations, from melty alfajores to softball sized macaroons. Stay for a well-executed Mexican breakfast.
Not as large as some other ballroom-sized spots in Houston, Dim Sum King doesn't utilize the traditional push carts. But the food is just as varied and the picture menu makes it easy to pick and point.
