Pinakbet
Gerald H.

My wife was craving for Pinakbet, so I picked up an order at Godo's, I could not resist getting a couple of baked goodies especially that the rolls were warm. I did get the combo which included the pinakbet, along with the pork adobe, both were flavored very well, making my wife very happy. The service was excellent also. And you have the option to eat in or take out. Great for a quick lunch.

Best egg rolls eva

I absolutely love the egg rolls here. I've gotten the pancit a few times, but the eggs rolls keep me coming back. I am able to pop them one after another until I realize I've eaten a whole box for myself. This is not somewhere I would dine in.. I only do call in orders...the dining area does not look appealing enough to eat in. Also, everytime I come in, the staff seems a little confused and overwhelmed.

Getting a nice surprise of a Filipino sit-down restaurant being so close to our hotel, we made it a point to visit for dinner during our short trip to Houston. It was our last night in Houston visiting our nephew, so suggested a Filipino restaurant close to our hotel, Houston Medical Center, and Rice University. Like most Filipino restaurants, Godo's Restaurant serves early breakfast so are open at 7 am, but close later at 7pm, allowing of an early dinner. We got there around 5:10pm. Since our nephew had to head back to campus, we ended up placing an order, half to go (for our nephew), half to dine-in. The half to go portion was done pretty quickly and packaged beautifully. My wife and I took our time with our dine-in meal. -- Hot Meal ($6.99) - basically a rice bowl, with a choice of protein. We chose lechon kawali, and the generous portions looked really good. -- Egg rolls ($17.99 for fifty) - comes in multiples of 25. We got 50, and split it between us. They are cut smaller in size than other places, but the price reflects that. That being said, I though the filling was very bland and too finely ground meat...it could have been any quality of meat, and didn't care for the mouthfeel. They were super crispy though, and came with the typical chilli sauce that greatly helped. For us: -- Whole bangus sinigang ($14.95) - this was made to order so took a while, but it was a beautiful dish. A whole plum tomato was used, along with generous amount of green beans and cabbage. The broth was really tasty, and not greasy at all since seafood was used. The fish was relatively boneless, but there really weren't too many meaty pieces...it was a smaller fish used, and I had to carefully pick away the inedible (for me) pieces. -- Pancit ($12.95) - wife asked for a mix of Bihon (rice noodle like what's used in Pho) and Canton (Chinese style lo mein). It's made to order, so her request of no fish sauce was granted. It's a very generous portion...we didn't order rice, so this became our side dish and the two of us was only able to finish half. -- stick of pork bbq x 2 ($2.50 each, though charged $6.50 for both) - pork shoulder, with the fat, glazed in a banana ketchup sauce and cooked over an open flame. It was good, better than most renditions we've tried in California...and definitely a better price. -- halo-halo ($5.99) - thought this was a steal at that price. Very pretty to look at, needs to be eaten slowly. Again, this was handmade when ordered. Did my best to finish a little more than half. All the restaurant chefs and servers were very nice, making sure we were happy. While we were waiting and eating, we were pleasantly surprised how busy they were through phone orders for pick-up. The phone was constantly ringing, and doctors/nurses from the nearby hospitals were coming in to get their Filipino dishes for them and their friends. The prices are very reasonable, especially since everything was made when ordered. We got a ton of really good food, and even with tip, the total didn't tip ninety bucks. There is also a small bakery where you can pick up Filipino favorites. But unlike some combo grocery/restaurant, Godo's is classified as a food/drink establishment for credit card purposes (instead of a grocery store)...so ended up using the right card after all.

Went to Godo since it was a short walk from my hotel. Got the Tocino Breakfast and the Lumpi Shanghai. The place isn't the most glamorous, but the service was fast and they were very helpful. The Tocino was kind of dry, but still tasty. That was way too much delicious lumpia for me. I took some with me to the plane to eat on the way home!

I was craving for Filipino food and our Caucasian colleague recommended me this! 0.6 miles away from my training and I had fried mackerel and mixed veggies. They heated my own brown rice I brought and they were very accommodating. Nothing like Filipino hospitality. They have the food market as well with various foods I'd get if I was home. H town is busting with great Filipino food! Clean atmosphere. Simple and straightforward!

Pork Adobo
Shanice B.

Food was fresh and delicious! I ordered online and it said it'd be ready in 45 mins and was as I received a ready for pickup notification via text. It ended up arriving 30 minutes after the pickup time. While pulling into the parking lot, they called to remind me of my order and when I told her that I was pulling in, she asked if I'd like her to bring the order out to me. This was a very kind gesture. I'm a Navy "brat". Black and Japanese, but grew up with many Filipina besties whose families frequently cooked delicious Filipino meals. I recommended this place to my family and would recommend to anyone else craving Filipino food.

Cassava Cake
Maria D.

This place was amazing! It was my first time here but definitely not my last. The cassava cake was hands down delicious! I loved the siopao asado and the lumpias too! Customer service was awesome. The man/owner gave us free empandas to try. Very cool! Their combos are not too pricey and definitely have good portions. Very worth it! This is my new spot for Filipino Food near Medical Center. I've been to Max's and the other cafeteria near it and they got nothing on this place. Especially price wise-vs Max's. I'm not sure if Godo's got Lechon Kawali and Crispy Patas but the menu here is already pretty extensive. Definitely a must try!

Ube ensaymada(purple yam sponge cake) ×3, $9.45. Ube Halaya(sweer purple yam desert), $4.99. Bico(sweet rice & jackfruit), $4.99.

Everything tasted excellent, my personal favorite was the chili wings, incredibly crispy yet very saucy at the same time. Can't go wrong with anything tho, ribeye was not as tender as I prefer but very flavorful Service 5/5: gave fantastic recommendations, friendly, and food came out quickly Ambiance 4/5: casual relaxed ambiance with a bar, clean, well lit. Value 4/5: fair sized portions for the price Overal 4.5/5: excellent food for a decent price, good service in a casual ambiance. Will be back to try other options

My BMP calamansi margarita was distinct in its tanginess. Tried the veggie lumpias and brussel sprouts. The lumpias had tangy dipping sauce that might have been dominated by calamansi. More tang than savory. The brussel sprouts were standard but had a good portion. I tried to detect whether they used fish sauce but I couldn't tell. Ordered the daing na bangus (milkfish) as my entree. They gave me the whole fish and it threw me off that it was mostly deboned since I kept looking for the bones with my tongue and teeth. Fish was nice and crispy and the dipping sauce was more savory than what came with the lumpias. The garlic rice that came with the dish was smoky from that wok hay. Probably could have used a little more soy sauce for flavouring. My favourite dish was the turon dessert (fried bananas) along with the ube ice cream. The coconut sauce they used seemed more like caramel. I haven't eaten much Filipino food so I wasn't sure how authentic the dishes were. I was expecting a little more intensity in the flavours, and I don't know if it was toned down for their customers. There were around ten customers that night. The inside was beautiful and they have a two level patio that is perfect for nights like these. The service was very nice and the kitchen was faster than I expected.

Chef Bham (previously from Alinea, amongst a few other baller restaurants) is a literal genius. The menu was a really thoughtful ode to various Filipino dishes with a little twist on each. You get the comforting tapsilog and taho that you might have grown up with alongside interesting flavors and ideas. Pandesal made into a tart crust, kinilaw made with daikon and beef...they also are very good at keeping in mind dietary restrictions: I was the annoying halal option, but, man did my experience rock. Pork belly replaced with enoki mushrooms or octopus, and the dish was still amazing. My sister was unfortunately gluten free, but still able to enjoy every bite. Because of the location, you get the experience of sitting with the chef and his team and that alongside them in almost in the kitchen. It's very cozy and different, and you learn a lot about each dish because of it (and his amazing team). I love Musaafer, but this may have become my new favorite high end place.

They allow byob and there's also a wine tasting as well. The 5 courses menu was thoughtfully crafted, with each dish rooted in heritage and memory. Highlights included the fried octopus with eggplant, it was a bit hard to hear what exactly the sauce he made was--but it was amazing. Also the fried rice with Wagyu, quail egg and topped with caviar was fantastic. Great texture and presentation. Service was impeccable. Chef Bham and the staff were deeply knowledgeable and genuinely passionate. Every glass was topped off before we even noticed. You could tell they weren't just serving food but also they were part of the storytelling. This experience deserves every bit of praise. If you're looking for something beyond the usual dining. Truly unforgettable. I'll be talking about this night for a long time.

Not the traditional style Filipino food that you'd find at a hole-in-the-wall. We also got the combo which comes with a drink and a side of tiny lumpias and some salt/vinegar shrimp chips. Overall, pretty pricy and not worth the price you pay. The food is pretty flavorful and the portions aren't bad or anything, I just don't think it's worth the price. Staff are friendly. Lots of tables to dine at to include the rest of the food court. The fountain drink machine is near one of the front doors. The parking lot is small and tight so I wouldn't bring a huge truck in here. The gate automatically lets you in, but you can pay on your way out and they don't validate here.

Soy Pinoy is located inside POST Houston, so you get that open, hawker-style food hall setup with…read moretons of first-come, first-serve seating. The space is massive and surprisingly comfortable, making it a great place to hang out if you're a foodie who likes options. There are indoor courtyards and even a rooftop with nice decor and city views--but I'll save my full POST Houston thoughts for another review. Now, onto Soy Pinoy, because this is where my senses officially took over. What pulled me in wasn't a sign or a menu--it was the aroma. The kind that makes you slow your walk and start scanning to see where it's coming from. Then I saw the display. They had several dishes laid out front and center, plated beautifully on banana leaves, looking crisp, golden, and downright tempting. At that point, it felt less like choosing food and more like being chosen by it. I ordered two dishes. The pork dish was fine--no complaints--but it didn't really wow me. Solid, but not something I'd rush back for. The real star was the whole fried red snapper. I loved that I actually got to pick the fish myself from the display up front, which already sets the tone for freshness. It came out perfectly breaded and fried to a crisp, with great crunch on the outside while the fish inside stayed tender and flavorful. It was served with a side of rice and a fish sauce with Thai chilies that really elevated the whole dish--salty, spicy, and just what it needed to cut through the richness. This is absolutely something I would order again without hesitation. Overall, Soy Pinoy knows exactly how to grab your attention--and more importantly, how to deliver when it counts. If you're walking through POST Houston hungry, good luck resisting this place. I tried... and clearly failed.
