    Got to the location and the bouncer and security guard were charging $10 per person to get into a bar that was free so I don't know if the owner knows but if not, please make it known so that knew if he is getting PLAYED ! Not cool !

    Decided to check Gagootz out with a few of our friends for dinner and I'd have to say we will definitely be coming back. The owner Eduardo was very friendly and helpful. It was great to see how excited he was for us to try their food when we were ordering with him at the bar. We couldn't decide on what to get (since everything sounded good) so we pretty much ordered half of the menu. We ordered a Gagootz burger, wings, spicy seafood pasta, pastor and fish tacos, a shrimp tostada and their Michelada (I initially wasn't going to drink tonight, but tried my friend's and had to order one for myself) The food came out fairly quickly and everything that we ordered was delicious. I was pleasantly surprised at the how good the pasta dish was and came to learn Eduardo and his dad had many years of experience working at an Italian restaurant prior to opening Gagootz (hence the sprinkle of Italian items on their menu) Overall, we all enjoyed the food, atmosphere and hospitality that Eduardo provided and will be recommending Gagootz to the rest of our friends.

    I'm gazoot for Gagootz!! I had the distinct pleasure of going to this down-to-earth, relaxing, Italian and Mexican restaurant/bar recently. What a find! On my first visit, I got to meet Eduardo (the restaurant owner and manager) where I got to learn about his family lineage of Italians who have a proven track record of running a successful Italian restaurant business in Katy for over the past 30+ years. Eduardo is a professional who takes pride in everything that he sets out to do. He is courteous and unmistakably thoughtful/kind. He is also quite the conversationalist. There is no doubt that Eduardo is creating something very special at Gagootz! If you happen to be looking for an eclectic and enjoyable dining/drink spot, look no further than Gagootz. The interior decor is super interesting! A few examples are a vintage European painting, a Frida Kahlo masterpiece, an actual Julius Caesar statue head, and even an old photograph and quote on the wall from Al Capone himself! Gagootz will CERTAINLY be giving the Monkey's Tail (located just kitty corner across the street on Fulton St.) a run for its money. Aside from the outstanding customer service, I cannot emphasize enough how amazing the food quality is here. The items that Eduardo and his chef prepare in their kitchen is magical (no kidding!). This is one of the top reasons that I feel makes Gagootz a standout in this part of Houston. In addition to a diverse food menu, Gagootz also offers an extensive drink menu that ensures that there will always be something for everyone. Oh, and for those who have a slightly more spicy taste palette in the food department? I welcome you to Gagootz! Although the place is currently in its infancy, developments and improvements are quickly being made! The addition of a new TV makes catching sports affairs an easy task. An added bonus is that there is both indoor and outdoor seating. And lastly, the place is kid friendly, so parents, what are you waiting for!? If after visiting Eduardo and his staff, should you feel inclined to do so, be sure to leave a review either on Google or Yelp to help Eduardo's business reach the masses that it deserves. For now, Gagootz is a hidden gem, but I think that that will change soon thanks to word of mouth. Look no further everyone... RUN (don't walk) to Gagootz now! You can thank me later. ;)

    This place is right down the street from my house I wish I knew about it sooner. Me and my husband walked here and I'm glad we did because we over indulged in the AMAZING FOOD. Get the Gagootz wings. You won't be disappointed. Probably the best wings I've ever had in my life. Also Eduardo made our drinks and his Froze was one of the best ever I've had. I recommend this place 10/10 amazing service and amazing food and drinks!!

    Expert cocktails!

    Steak night

    I came in after a long day and decided to sit at the bar to eat and read and the lovely gentleman that was bartending informed me about their steak night I am definitely not a steak girly but I decided why not and I was pleasantly surprised! The steak was HUGE and the side of fries and caesar salad was divine. As for my drinks I asked if he could make me a bee's knees and although he had to substitute the honey for agave, it was the best bee's knees I had ever tasted. Super cool ambiance, I definitely will be coming back-- I wish I got my bartender's name though, he was so cute n sweet!

    Empty Empress cocktail (cause i drank it all, lol) and a blue moon beer

    Gagootz is one our favorite spots to stop by no matter the day or time, their service is fantastic and they always offer great recommendations. The food is so out-of-this-world amazing, and so cheap!! They're prices are criminally low in comparison to all of the prices raising here in Houston. The vibe is always catered to their customers, and they change the music according to who the audience is! Their lighting is gorgeous and it provides such a good setting for a late night.

    Great place, great vibes, friendly staff, really recommend! Ask where the name comes from, and pay attention to decor.

    Sometimes you just need a place to decompress after a long day or simply to get out of daily routines. On these days, I come here to Gagootz, especially now that they've added a steak night. As a latina, I appreciate the atmosphere with the Spanish music in the background. As I'm enjoying my steak or wings, I'm rocking to the various genres of music, which takes me back to a time of youth. But, dont me twisted, i can also rock to some of the more current music. DJ is se up on Thursdays so be ready to rock or request. Now, about the food. I LOVE a good ribeye steak - you know, the kind with a little char, juice and falvor. Each time I've come, that's what I get. They are pretty consistent with the food. The bartender is amazing. I walked in today and he remembered my drink. He checked up on me often so it was nice sitting at the bar. This place is located in my stomping grounds and I'm glad they are here. Parking is a little challenging but I don't mind or I simply Uber. There is some outdoor sitting if you enjoy Houston's bold weather . I've enjoyed each visit and will continue to come to this local spot in the lovely Lindale Park.

    Anyone who knows me understands I tend to avoid the corporate or heavy investor funded bars. I will…read morereluctantly go to them with friends, but I prefer local joints that I can support. The types of places that combine the atmosphere I'm looking for: 1) has a good selection of beer, preferably local brewers; 2) some wine or craft cocktails for different preferences; 3) has a food menu, permits outside food, or brings in food trucks/pop-ups; 4) a laid back vibe that welcomes families and doesn't have the air of pretentiousness; and lastly; 5) a patio for the small windows of nice weather we have in Houston, or just anytime we want to bring along our four legged friends. I've rarely ran across an outdoor patio that doesn't permit pets and if they do restrict them, it's not worth my business. To that end, this spot ticks a lot of boxes. For those who aren't into the Houston F&B scene as much, Robin Berwick is the creative mind behind this spot. If you've ever visited a caffeine themed coffee and bar in the midtown area, you've been to another long standing establishment of hers. When Berwick's opened roughly over a year ago, I knew this would be a spot I'd enjoy. This spot tows the line well, it's not a dive bar, it's not pretentious, and it has the neighborhood bar feel that welcomes those looking for a great cocktail, a simple beer, or just some good vibes with family, friends, or kids. It feels like if a laid back tiki bar combined with a rustic feel. Living nearby, I think it fits the area. Food & Drink - 4.5* They have burgers, wings, friends, salads. All the food is good and I definitely recommend grabbing a bite during your visit. I particularly like their burgers and always grab a cocktail to go along with it. Service - 4* I've had mixed results, sometimes the attention to detail and service times are really good. Others they can be a little long or the sense their focus is elsewhere. Cost - 4* They used to have solid specials but they have dropped off over time. As an example, there used to be BOGO burgers on Wednesdays from 4-9 pm. Then it was 50% off. That's now only 25% off on Wednesday and only from 4-7 pm. They also had half price margaritas and frozen las brujas. This is now 25% off. Tuesday's was half price French 75s and Sazeracs. That's now 25% off. Thursday's used to be BOGO wings, $3 pacificos, and half price daiquiris. That is also now just 25% off wings, daiquiris, and cabana crushes. Fridays is industry night. They offered 25% off the entire food menu from 10 pm-12 am, now it's only 11 pm-12 am and only for the sandwich. Look, I worked in the industry, I know it's tough. I get that it's really tough for bars in Houston to make the margins work when the burdens seem to continue to rise. Landlords particularly are brutal /rant. It's even tougher when a bar is just getting their feet under them. This neighborhood has seen a lot of great additions in the last couple of years and the specials had us visiting more often, particularly when they ran til 9 pm. We now can't make it as often with the cutoff at 7 pm. Ultimately we were spending more time and money during the past visits, but I'm sure the overall margins were thinner for them. Possibly even some loss leaders to get traffic and business in the door. Now that the specials and times have tightened we elected to diversify to other bars nearby. Ultimately, they're all local and have the vibes I look for. Overall - 4.25* I highly encourage everyone to give this spot a visit if you're nearby. It's a great spot with good drinks and friendly neighborhood vibes. I do wish they would make some further adjustments to certain things that I thought differentiated them from others, the 4-9 pm specials was particularly strong as it allowed for the chance to visit more often when many folks can't make it by 7 pm. At least it isn't as bad as some bars, that I won't name that have basically limited their offering to a 1-1.5 hour happy hour (though it is half price) that runs so early that it's shocking how anyone could visit during that small window.
