Bread Pudding
Vickie P.

AMAZING times 2. This little gem in Bellaire has made quite an impression on our group. We recently had a Galentines dinner there and they did not disappoint. James was our server and let me tell you he made our evening so enjoyable. He had a large area to cover but he made us feel like we were his only table. Great job to the staff who welcomed us with open arms and let us celebrate in style. Service was great Food was impressive and don't even get us started about the desserts. Chef came out to our table and we let him know it was delicious. They even allowed us to decorate our table with themed items and all the extras. We had a game of "share our favorites" and then we had dessert. We don't live close but it was sooo worth the trip. We will be back for sure. Great job to James and all the staff at Exodus..... you are doing it right

Leslie's Tuscan Chicken

My husband & I were traveling thru Houston and found this wonderful restaurant. We started with a couple cocktails (mixed vey well) and I had the chicken & my husband the short ribs ... both were delicious. Even the veggies were scrumptious!!!! Everything was just perfect . Cheesecake & coffee drinks to finish .

Gale Evans band a pre 4th of July treat from Exodus.

I was highly impressed by this bar and grill from the moment we entered on July 3. Beautiful Texan ambiance and they were well prepared with waitstaff for the band playing at 6. The happy hour offers a variety apps and cocktails, wine, beer at reasonable prices. We were promptly greeted by the pleasant waitress and I ordered calamari. It came so tender with flavorful whole rings and generous portions. The chef goes all out to make sure the quality is there as well as the presentation. We were treated to hearing The Gale Evans band. People kept coming in and the place filled quickly with diners and yet the staff took on the challenge of ensuring everyone enjoyed the experience. I have to say, they succeeded on all levels of me having a memorable night there and can't wait to return.

They also serve hot pita bread with hummus, which was a nice touch.

What stood out to me was the flexibility and service. I asked to swap the chicken for salmon on my salad and they didn't hesitate, they just made it happen. The salmon was cooked perfectly, which made the whole dish. It also stood out that the environment felt easy and welcoming. My son enjoyed his meal, I enjoyed mine, and it was just a smooth, no-stress dinner.

Miso Glazed Salmon with Sauteed Garlic Spinach
Mauryce J.

Salmon was delicious. Cooked well - to perfection. Had the spinach as a side in lieu of the bok choy. My friend had the chicken fried steak and was very pleased with it. Service was excellent. James was super attentive. I loved the ambiance. They did a really good job in creating a very intimate atmosphere but still very welcoming for everyone. Parking is an extra plus because it is located in a strip mall. We had an early dinner so it was not crowded which was perfect.

Chicken Fried Steak w/ mashed potatoes and green beans

(5/5) - An Unforgettable Hidden Gem! What an experience!! From the moment we walked in the door until the moment we left, this place delivered pure magic. As soon as we stepped inside, the owner greeted us with a huge smile and said, "Reservation for Blair?" - instant VIP vibes that made us feel like regulars on our very first visit. We hadn't even settled in before the chef himself swung by our table with a complimentary appetizer: fresh, house-made Pita Bread & Hummus that isn't even on the menu. Warm, fluffy pita straight from the oven paired with the creamiest, garlicky hummus I've ever had - it was AMAZING and set the tone for everything to come. The menu is a glorious mash-up of comfort classics, smoky BBQ twists, and even sushi (!!), and every single dish blew us away: * Smoked Brisket Bolognese - Tender, slow-smoked brisket in a rich, meaty sauce draped over al dente pasta. The smoky depth took this Italian staple to another universe. * Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo - Silky, garlicky cream sauce clinging to perfectly cooked noodles with juicy grilled chicken. Pure comfort food heaven. * Leslie's Monterrey Chicken - Whoever Leslie is, she's a genius. Grilled chicken smothered in melted cheese, crisp bacon, and just the right kick of peppers. Juicy, flavorful, and downright addictive. * Chicken Fried Steak - Golden, crispy crust giving way to fork-tender steak swimming in creamy pepper gravy. Southern perfection on a plate. * Red Dragon Sushi Roll (shared with my son) - Phenomenal! Spicy tuna, crisp tempura bits, and that perfect drizzle of eel sauce and sriracha mayo. Fresh, balanced, and a total surprise standout on a non-sushi-focused menu. Everything was made fresh in-house, you could taste the love and attention in every bite. The owner and chef checking in personally made the night feel special, not just another dinner out. If you're anywhere near this spot, RUN don't walk. This is the kind of family-run gem that reminds you why dining out can still be an absolute joy. We're already planning our next visit - thank you for an incredible evening! (Pro tip: Make a reservation - this place deserves to be packed every night!)

Smoked brisket bolognese.
Stephen A.

Had heard great things about Exodus so had to check it out! We went for a casual family Friday dinner. The ambiance is chill, comfortable, great energy as well visually appealing. Our waiter James made our experience even more enjoyable with his fun playful spirit and excitement in the menu! He gave us great recommendations on the extensive and eclictic menu. So we started with carne asada fries, chargrilled cauliflower along with the California roll and spider roll. Every dish was delicious but the chargrilled cauliflower can we talk about this! Perfectly chargrilled cauliflower on a bed of creamy hummus drizzled with cranberries and chimichurri sauce ! Highly recommend!! So full of flavors!! For main dishes we had the smoked brisket bolognese, sashimi, the Branzino special, yellow tail sashimi, the maya sandwich and last but not least the pistachio crusted sea bass. All of the entrees were outstanding and full of flavors! The portions were ample. The presentations of the dishes added to our experience. We did share a piece of the pecan pie was so good they should push them at thanksgiving! All and all this new neighborhood bar and grill is a do not miss! I understand they also have a nice happy hour!! I personally cannot wait to go back and try new dishes along with the cauliflower

Great Service from Jose and Luis. Excellent food. Great sourdough bread. Gumbo very tasty. Awesome drinks and desserts. Excellent Ambiance.

Returned to have sushi-only dinner after my first experience with this hidden gem. We had the Big Bruce, Oved and Spicy Tuna Croquettes. I canst say enough about how outstanding the food was. The Sushi chef is exceptionally skilled and the quality of the rolls is top notch. A place like this is a sleeper - small neighborhood joint with a huge menu and a simply outstanding chef and staff. Highly recommended.

Our server, Camille, took our order and then would disappear for 30+ minutes at a time. At one point, when we asked where she had been, she simply said she was "walking around." Her overall approach to serving us felt extremely nonchalant and inattentive. The atmosphere also made us feel as though the level of attention you receive depends on how much you're spending--particularly whether you're purchasing bottles. The servers seemed more focused on creating a bottle-service experience than providing attentive restaurant service. It gave the evening a very transactional, "pay for attention" feeling rather than genuine hospitality. What really sealed the experience for us happened after we had already paid our bill. A host approached our table and essentially said, "Can you leave now? We need to seat someone right now." There was no gracious transition, no "thank you for dining with us," and no polite explanation--just an abrupt request to leave. For a restaurant with such a beautiful ambiance and good food, the service and hospitality were incredibly disappointing. Guests should feel welcomed and valued from the moment they sit down until the moment they leave, regardless of whether they're ordering bottles.

The origami ceiling, lively bar, friendly staff, unique cocktails, fun bathroom, and photo booth in the corner made for an unforgettable experience. My friend said it was the busiest he had ever seen the place, and it was loud. But we got some awesome drinks that I swore I could've taken pics of -- the lighting was a little crazy, so I think I ultimately changed my mind with that. One was the periscope which was a refreshing and summery gin drink... And I think I tried the naked and famous too because I like mezcal. I had already eaten so I skipped the restaurant the speakeasy's connected to, but I cannot wait to return to Houston outside of a Con so I can really go all out on exploring. It was an amazing way to end my first night!

I ordered the Side to the Sun Rises (gin, yuzu, mint, cucumber) which was light, refreshing, and well balanced. I would recommend it if you enjoy gin-based cocktails with a slightly fruity flavor.

Overall, a fun spot with great vibes and definitely worth checking out!
