The golden bowl is what they have samples of before you order. This bowl has curry and plantain these are my favorite flavor of the dish it gives the dish a powerful flavor that blends so well with any protein. Unique traditional dish definitely worth a try. What I order : Golden Bowl any protein is a good combo (chicken/ steak /shrimp protein options)

I had a very disappointing experience. The portion size was much smaller than expected, especially…read morefor the price. The steak was supposed to be tender, but it was tough and chewy, and I only received three tiny pieces for a $10 steak add-on. I ordered my meal to go and didn't realize until I got home that my order was incorrect. I specifically ordered it with jollof rice, but I was given plain white rice instead. I tried to give the restaurant a chance to make things right by calling them. Instead of addressing my concerns, I was told they were busy and to call back in a few hours. That was frustrating, especially after spending $40 on a meal and an appetizer. Overall, the small portions, poor quality steak, incorrect order, and lack of immediate customer service made this one of the worst dining experiences I've had. Unfortunately, I won't be returning, and I can't recommend this restaurant based on my experience.

Need a gluten free bakery that is delicious? Check out Leven Bakery & Cafe…read more Ordered a To Good To Go bakery bag as a way to get some sweet treats for a friend that is gluten free. Waited as they packed a bag full of sweet treats. Lemony Turmeric Tea Cakes, Streusel Coffee Cake, a Power Bar, a Cowboy Cookie, a Brownie and Oaty Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies. The Lemony Turmeric Tea Cake and Power Bar were delicious. My friend enjoyed the Cowboy Cookies, Brownies and the Oaty Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie. A great bakery to get gluten free treats.

I stayed for a few hours to study during finals, but ended up leaving because it was really cold inside! The matcha latte was decent and the chicken salad sandwich was filling. I thought their chicken salad sandwich was creative because it was served with a variety of pickled vegetables that brought some nice acidity to the creamy chicken salad. Overall, I thought this was a nice spot, but don't think it offers anything particularly unique to the Houston cafe scene.

I really enjoyed my visit to Travelers table! It was easy to make a reservation online in advance…read more They have only valet parking. The restaurant has a nice open vibe to it plenty of indoor seating in a smaller patio outside as well. I liked the different options on the menu, many different flavor profiles, and combinations coming together so that you experience cuisine and spices from around the world from your dining experience. Our server did a good job of providing recommendations and telling us a little bit of background on the restaurant, which was very nice. They have a great cocktail menu as well as some options to get some flights for margaritas and other drinks. I tried the our little Havana, which was very tasty and refreshing. I also had the travelers's table board, which was good. The appetizers were really delicious! We tried the crab samosas, which were very tasty and also the guava empanadas were a must try! Definitely a good place to go for brunch or during your trip in Houston.

This is, without question, the best vegan dessert I've ever had. Me and my non-vegan boyfriend…read moreregularly go out of our way to come here because it's genuinely that special. The ice cream is a 10/10 with delicious and unique flavors. We love that there's a featured treat each day, and nearly everything we've tried has been incredible. That said, the service has historically been the one downside. In fact, it's been so consistently dismissive, slow, and unfriendly that I've never left a review before. The product was too good for me to stop coming, but I couldn't leave a glowing review while ignoring the service experience. So I never said anything. Last week, however, my best friend and I stopped in for a quick dessert, fully expecting the same experience, and instead we met Laura. Laura was absolutely wonderful. A dessert shop, especially a vegan one, should feel welcoming, joyful, and a little special, and she embodied that energy exactly. She was patient, warm, hospitable, and genuinely kind. Her attitude elevated the entire experience and reminded me how much great service can enhance an already amazing product. I'm hopeful that Laura represents a positive shift in staffing because she completely eliminated the only criticism I've ever had about this place. The desserts have always been exceptional, and with service like hers, this place is truly outstanding.

They are allergen-free and gluten-free for those with sensitivities, and my favorite-- no preservatives and artificial colors or ingredients! Also perfect for families with food allergies. ** S'more's donut (5/5)-- was more like a soft, super moist cake (not complaining, super delish). It had a nice chocolate flavor and sweetness. Not sure how allergen-free, vegan donuts usually taste like, but I totally gobbled this one up! Besides the marshmallow, it was more like a chocolate donut to me, but it was a yummy chocolate donut. ** Ube swirl cookie (3/5)-- their monthly special cookie which was eye-catching. Definitely used ube jam on top, which was all I could taste. I wasn't a fan of this one since it wasn't very sweet, but MT demolished it. The cookie base was a bit dry and crumbly, but I've never had a gluten-free cookie that wasn't. I would try another flavor next time :) The worker at the front was very bubbly and friendly, welcoming any questions we had. A freezer of packed ice cream pints and chocotacos (!), an ice cream case, and a pastry case of their muffins, brownie/blondies, and donuts were available. Luckily, I visited on a Wednesday which is their donut day. Check their website-- cupcakes on Fridays, donut cakes and cookie cakes on Saturdays. Seems like they're super muffins (made with veggies and fruits!) and beanie bars (made with beans and chickpeas) are always available. If lived closer, I'd be visiting regularly to try more donuts and all the other desserts (Choco-taco, I'm coming back for you! ). They are a little on the pricey side for the size, but I think it's worth knowing how clean the ingredients are. Definitely drop in and try something new if you're in the area!

Bought a birthday cake from them for my son who has a dairy allergy. Was specifically looking for a…read moredairy-free--but not vegan--cake and appreciated that this was also gluten and refined sugar free. I was a little nervous it would taste obviously dairy/gluten free but everyone (including myself and my toddler) loved it! As a cake enthusiast (cannot get enough of Dessert Gallery) I was absolutely impressed. It was delicious, moist, the right amount of dense, and had chocolatey frosting that tasted pretty similar to buttercream. It was also so cool to know that the entire thing was sweetened with maple syrup. Almost healthy, haha! The process of ordering was easy enough. I placed the order online, set a time, and we picked it up in less than 5 minutes. I was even able to reschedule my pickup time at Snap Kitchen via email with the staff. Very helpful and responsive. The cake did not come with the decorations pictured. I added those from Amazon.

My fiancé did some research and surprised me with a gluten free key lime pie from Angie's. It was her first time making one, and I can honestly say it was THE best key lime pie I've had in my entire life. We ended up getting another one a few weeks later to bring to my family, and they had no idea it was gluten free (and they all kept talking about the amazing key lime pie for weeks). We tried several things from Angie's when we lived in Texas, and every single thing was out of this world. I don't know how she does it, but I am so grateful that Angie offers so many delicious gluten free options. She is also SO nice and talented, and Angie's GF desserts are what I miss the most about Houston!

My favorites are the chicken salads, beef chili, cauliflower chowder, and carrot-ginger soup. Most of their salads are delicious, with the Blake Bowl, Glow Bowl, and Power Bowls getting top marks. :) The English Toffee cookie is also totally delish! It's on the softer side but perfect for the sweet tooth. :D The parking lot usually always has space since the shops in the area are mostly in-and-out stores. The inside is bright, simple but pleasing, and open with a few tables for dining in. Service has always been friendly. I do wish they would put nutrition facts on their products! Since I can't track the macros as easily, Green Fork & Straw is my splurge (both for price and diet) :D
