Stopped here to try their frozen cocktails. My friend had the Miami vice, which he said the alcohol seemed a bit overpowering to him. I had the lemon drop and it truly tasted very tart towards the last 3rd of the cup. Not fully our cup of tea but I would go back to try something different to see if the place could fully win me over.

Happy go lucky is such a cute outdoor chill spot with the potential of being a place for great summer nights and a spot to get pick up a frozen treat on your way home. I've given them three stars because of the horrible customer service we received on our first visit. Not only was the cashier in the opposite corner of the register window texting on her phone, there was a line forming that no one attended to, there wasn't any friendly greetings, and they messed up my order and forgot to place my toppings on my ice as well. After receiving my order I noticed it didn't have any pearls on it as it was stated on the menu. Upon returning to the cashier and confirming that pearls came with my treat she said yes and I asked had they ran out of the pearls she stated no and asked if I would like some. Well of course if that's what comes on my order, I didn't make any substitutions to my order, and that's what I paid for. The treat ended up being disappointing after all of that anyway. I should've taken a picture of what we ended up throwing away. Would I return to this establishment.. maybe. Pictures below

So good had to come her twice per my nephew's request. There is something for everyone here. Shaved icee for the kids and frozen drinks snd soft serve with alcohol the adults. The consistency of the soft serve was perfection. Service was pretty fast. There is also a drive through. There is a lot of outdoor seating.

These drinks are STRONG. I'm from Utah though, so take that as you will. Service was quick and efficient, employees were nice. Very cute seating and ambiance, loved the lights!

Love this places. Prices may seem steep but for the size, these are a great deal. Nice shady seating area and the wait was never too long. Daughter got add-ins that were forgotten but she didn't go up and ask so that's on her.

Absolutely not a fan of this place. I came here for dessert after dinner and wasn't impressed. My friend swears by this place, so I thought I'd give it a go, but nope...I've had better. In all fairness, maybe I just ordered wrong, but I for sure left disappointed. Not too sure if I'll try them out again, but if I do, I will definitely be ordering something different. They have plenty of options to choose from, so that's good. If I decide to go back, I'll update this review. Maybe my experience will be different next time around.

Curiosity got the best of me - I had to see what all the hype is about. Stopped by on my way home from La Lucha. I ordered a piña colada, it was served up very quickly! It was better than I thought it'd be, I can see myself stopping by every once in a while for a cold drink. Probably a good place if you're into the gram, tik tok, or whatever the kids are on these days haha. I can see these drinks being all over social media.

OBSESSED. Happy Go Lucky is exactly what you want on a hot day--fun, colorful, delicious, and just the right amount of indulgent. I ordered the Strawberry Delight with extra condensed milk and a tequila floater, and I'm not exaggerating when I say it was to die for. 10/10, no notes. It was sweet, refreshing, and had that perfect boozy kick without overpowering the flavor. My friend got the Dreamy Dreamsicle with extra condensed milk and a vodka topper, and she was in love with hers too! The setup is super cute and relaxed. It's an outdoor walk-up stand with shaded seating and plenty of fans, which kept things comfortable even in the Texas heat. They also have a drive-thru if you're on the go, but we stayed and enjoyed the vibe--and we devoured every last drop (see photo evidence ). Such a good spot for a treat, especially when the weather's nice. Bright colors, good music, strong pours, and even stronger flavors. Already planning my next visit!

I had exceptionally high hopes for Happy Go Lucky. We were really looking forward to a Hawaiian style shaved ice option with real fruit. *It's clear that their primary focus is on creating exceptional daiquiris and alcohol options. (We are not drinkers) *I must commend them on infusing a remarkable amount of flavor into their snow cones, a true delight. I selected the Happy Rainbow, which was VERY sweet and melted quickly. Probably because Houston's 99-degree heat, but still brought a smile to my face. VERY MESSY! *Daughter got blue coconut said it was okay, she had better. *The employees were so sweet and helpful !

Cute spring/summer drink spot that's perfect for both kids and adults. The patio is spacious with plenty of seating, making it a great place to relax. Service was quick, and they offer samples upon request, which is a nice touch. There's also a convenient drive-thru as well.

Great service Mia was able to help me decide which delicious soft serve to choose from! I had to go with the strawberry daiquiri super yummy and stayed frozen on this hot Houston day Melanie and Melisa were sure to check on us after we picked our flavor and the place had great vibes. I would come back again

Came on a Friday afternoon for a sweet treat and this was great to cool off from the hot and humid Houston summers. I got the happy rainbow and my friend got the miami vice. I tried to substitute the pineapple syrup in the happy rainbow for the mango flavor, but they did not allow substitutions. I also asked for less syrup but mine came out overflowing with syrup. With syrup spilling out on the sides and the ice melting quickly in the heat it was a bit messy to eat, but the flavors were good and it was refreshing. I think it was a bit sweeter than id prefer, but I did enjoy the creamy scoop of ice cream and the fruity mochi bites. (5.5/10) The Miami vice was super cooling and you can definitely taste the alcohol. I would say that the drinks are a bit stronger than the average frozen/ blended drink you'd get at a bar. The shaved ice portion was also fun addition to the drink. (6/10) I'd definitely take someone here if they were wanting to try something new.

Since our first visit to Baso, have been eager to return so we went for our anniversary dinner…read moreyesterday evening. Waited too late to book reservation so got bar seating but it was just fine and service was great. Upon arriving we were so nicely greeted by the hostess, felt very welcome. Our cocktails were very good--and Old Fashioned and a "Crime!". For a starter we had the aka obi, then the endive salad (best I've had!) and for entrees we shared the shrimp and the whole striped bass which is butterflied. For dessert we got the Basque Cheesecake and it was heavenly. Baso has quickly become my favorite high-end restaurant in the Heights. The portions are nice and the flavors are outstanding. We left beyond satisfied and looking forward to our next foodie adventure at Baso.

As soon as you walk in there's a small bar and as you enter the main area there an open kitchen by the counter seating and then there are some lounge like chairs and several small dinner tables. This place is more for a date as the tables are on the smaller size and the place itself. Reservations is probably a good idea to have and they don't have valet parking so the parking is free. They had plenty of parking when I went. We got the drinks menu first and they had a bunch of different drinks. The regular menu isn't so extensive but it did have a lot of sharable items. They also had a taste menu valued at $150 per person. I tried the oysters, elk, quail, crab, and sweet shrimp. For the dessert I had the basque cheesecake. My favorites were the quail where you get 4 tender pieces of quail and baby deviled eggs. My next favorite was the sweet shrimp which was an interesting flavor since it had been pollen in the broth like sauce. The elk was also an interesting bite the thin cracker on top of it was made from sunflower seeds. The dessert was also my highlight. I love basque cheesecake and this one came with a slight twist for me. They had a fluffy white creme under the cheesecake which reminded me of like a marshmallow fluff. Service was great the server knew the menu well and had smooth transitions between meals. The only real reason I give this place 3 stars is because of my palate and the price value of the food. The food was good but it didn't stand out too much for me.

This location is casual and has plenty of seating (tables, bar + outdoor seating). You order at the counter and typically wait around 20 minutes for the pizza to be ready. It can definitely get busy which makes parking a bit tricky, but I've always managed to get parking in the lot. My go-to is the fancy backpacker. I've only tried the Pepperoni Madness and Fancy Backpacker. The crust is perfectly thin and the toppings pair well together. I would also recommend adding pepperoni to the Fancy Backpacker. Gypsy Poet is always consistent with the taste and service, you can always expect a good experience in both aspects. I think it definitely lives up to the title of having the best pizza in Houston and is one of my favorite go-to dinner spots!

We ordered the Pepperoni Madness ($17.99), which is topped with hot honey and was delicious. We also got the Cappellone ($17.99), which comes with house tomato sauce, fior di latte, mozzarella, portobello mushroom caps, shallots, and Italian sausage. It was equally delicious. The dough had a nice chew, and the crust kept that consistency throughout. This was the only pizza spot we hit up during our Houston trip, and I'm glad we chose this place. I would definitely recommend it if you're in the mood for quality, artisan-style pizza. * Indoor tables are first come first serve

For appetizers, I had the Drunken Garlic Bread, and I honestly don't know exactly what was on it, but it was SO good. Lots of cheese, garlic, and just overall deliciousness. We got a few different appetizers for the table, and everything we tried was great. For my entree, I got the Italian Drunken Dip Sandwich. It was WAY smaller than I expected. It was good, but compared to the appetizers, it wasn't anything mind-blowing. The menu said it would come on the drunken bread, similar to the appetizer, but the bread on my sandwich was much harder. Not sure if they ran out of the actual drunken bread or if that's how it's supposed to be, but it was a little disappointing. Overall, I really enjoyed the appetizers and the atmosphere, and I'd definitely come back for more of a happy hour vibe.

The setting is great and it works for couples, families and large groups and they have a great back patio which is nice when weather is nice.
