Da Original
Christian R.

Walking in I definitely loved the way it felt inside , a homey feel and welcoming. I got the beef bbq skewers and my gf got the same. Loved every bite of it and my gf had the same reaction. I had to also try DaOriginal Halo - Halo , and man I must say I found my go to spot. Everything I got was delicious we also got some smoothies (UBAE Bee , UBElicious) that hit the spot with the meal. Service was perfect , especially for our drinks. Will be coming back to try new items from the menu, a first for Filipino food for me.

Great, convenient, easy place to get Filipino food in the area. They have a large menu than includes food and drinks. The prices were very reasonable and good portion sizes. My favorite item that I got was the lumpia. Everything else was good: not too salty or sweet. Very unique flavors and I would come back.

Palabok

I tried their Palabok and I thought it was okay. It has more of an herb taste. Not sure if that even makes sense but my first thought was it's a little similar to Jollibee's Palabok if you like that. The portion was good for the price! It had egg slices and I think a shrimp Katsu which was a nice surprise! Service was great and fast. I'd like to try their Halo halo next time. It's in a plaza so there are parking. Inside is very colorful and have that Filipino vibes.

The employees were SO friendly. I've been searching hard for authentic boba, theirs is fresh and there are plenty of great food options!

Excellent food and great friendly service! I had seen someone review this place on TikTok and thought we would give it a try and it did not disappoint. I had the original Halo and the fried milkfish and my son had a strawberry smoothie and the bbq chicken plate and all was very delicious! We will definitely return!

Heard about iSnak from Instagram and decided to check it out when I was in Katy. Always happy to support small businesses. Decent store with filipino food and desserts for a reasonable price. Ube-licious signature drink - ube macapuno smoothie. They put actual macapuno in the smoothie, along with coconut jelly. I was happy about that. A little on the sweet side. I'm not sure if you could adjust the sweetness to this drink. Pancit palabok - included breaded chicken? (Or pork? Couldn't tell.) in their version. Very interesting.. didn't exactly love it though. Made fresh to order, so that's good. Lumpia Shanghai - beef egg rolls, 10 pieces for $5. Bite size, crispy, and comes with sweet chili sauce. These were also made fresh to order. Puto - it's okay. Haven't had puto in a long time so I wanted to get it. Barely taste the cheese though. Overall, I would rate it 3.5 stars. The service was good and they were friendly, I can't complain. Wasn't completely "wow'ed" by their food, but it wasn't terrible. They had some other food that was pre-made and ready to take home. They definitely have a wide variety of drinks that I would like to try. I would also want to try their halo halo since the pictures look good. I didn't get the halo halo due to having to drive back home in the loop. Will eventually come back to try it and other drinks. Would overall recommend, but wouldn't go out of my way to drive here.

This is a great Filipino returner that has both food and snacks! When I first walked into the store, I was greeted with witty wall designs that are hilarious. The owners are also very sweet and kind and don't hesitate to help. I had their halo halo which is a refreshing sweet drink that contains taro and other delicacies such as jellies. Their palabok and their fries siomai is really good too.

Being a Filipina, I'm so glad that we have a great spot here to pick up some Filipino snacks and specialty drinks, especially during this summer heat! Their Siopao Asado (steamed buns w/shredded chicken and a sweet garlic/soy sauce on the side) is so good, and if you'd like to try it on the go or in their cafe, they can warm it up for you while you take the rest of the pack home, since they sell by the pack. The Beef Lumpia Shanghai (Filipino egg rolls) are also tasty! The drink menu is extensive and colorful, and they of course have Halo-Halo here, a Filipino dessert staple! I haven't tried their Halo-Halo yet, but their UBAE Bee Milk Tea is a nice sweet treat. I love that they use actual Ube Halaya in it and not a powder base. The customer service was also so kind and efficient! Their cafe is also really clean and quaint. Overall, I'm so glad that iSnak is representing well and that I don't have to travel to Cali just to get some decent Filipino snacks (aside from my family's home cooking of course), but truly I know where I'll be to satisfy my Ube cravings on the go. I'll be back to try more, and especially since they cater some party trays too!

iSnak cafe is... not great. I like to think I'm half a Filipino at this point, so lemme try jotting some thoughts on this little Pinoy joint just so I can get into the mood to write food reviews again. - So the first thing that I wanted to try was the "Fried Siomai with Java Rice" which my Pinoy friend drooled over after she saw it in the menu. So I thought it must be good. Well I couldn't tell since the "java rice" was just sloppily steamed rice thrown in turmeric powder with a slice of lemon and some of the cheapest chili oil they could steal from the nearest Chinese takeout bundled in. The fried siomai tasted less of pork and more of raw flour, and I wish I was trying to be funny. When I sent the picture to my friend it destroyed both of our dreams, so that is a pass for me. - The next thing I got was another yellow rice thing that I wish was different from the "java rice" but really was not: The beef BBQ sticks. They somehow managed to make Texas beef BBQ taste like braised pork! Much wow! Instead of some chili oil you get some radish in vinegar this time, which was heart-sinkingly reminiscent of the stuff they gave at CrabBoil Express in Aurora near the Chicago suburbs, which my friend agreed was the greatest insult to Pinoy cuisine ever. - The third main dish I got was the pancit palabok. Now I had high hopes for this one, since the palabok was my favorite thing from Jollibee and Jollibee is so above any other fast-food chain in taste it's pretty ridiculous. I also have good memories of palabok from my guy Miguel at the Manila Bistro - a place as ghetto as you could get - so I know what good palabok tastes like: You either have sweet, soft, easy to digest and scrumptiously eggy like Jollibee, or you have decadent pieces of seafood on a wedding-worthy base. This iSnak palabok had neither of those. What it did have though, is deep fried shrimp, which is normally one of my favorite dishes, until the deep fried shrimp broke down the moment it hit the spoon like what little optimism I had left in life. - The arroz caldo was... actually pretty good. It has a lot of warmth with just the right amount of ginger and chicken, and it helped with my achoos a little bit so I have no complaints with it. It's one of the few good dishes in here and is the reason why this place got a D in my list instead of E or F. - My appetizer of choice this time was the "homemade" fish cakes. I don't know why this home decided to use tteok instead of fish for their filling, but c'est la vie I suppose. (If you don't know what tteok is, imagine rice but textured as jello.) - And my dessert was the Ubelicious "drink", which... was actually quite delicious wow why do I not have any complaints about this. My only possible qualm is that it's a little too sweet for my taste, but then again y'all get birthday cakes from Walmart. Other than that, it was a very refreshing, cold, creamy, exotic dessert. All in all, iSnak is like a minefield with the occasional gem. Most dishes are frankly quite bad, but they do have good, authentic Filipino dishes in the menu somewhere, if you are lucky enough to spot it. Would recommend for anyone who just won a casino streak.

Food was authentic! Taste really good! Everything for me that we order Is just so perfect. Halo2 was a boom! Bilo2 was so good! Not too sweet just perfect! Service was so accommodating and owners are so nice and hands on to their clients. Ambiance was fine. They have stuff to play with and most especially they have the sungka. Which is fun!

Excellent service, very clean inside and smelled great, cozy ambiance, the food was incredible! BEST Halo Halo in Houston! The mango one was amazing! My friend got the ube which was also divine! Run don't walk to iSnak!!

Seafood City Supermarket - Crispy crablets

Seafood City Supermarket

Seafood City Supermarket is our family's go-to supermarket for Filipino groceries. They have a…read moregreat selection of everything from fresh produce to instant noodles, seasoning packs, juices, canned meats, sauces, frozen foods, and snacks--basically all the essentials in one place. The food court is a big bonus and something we look forward to every visit. With the live grill and multiple spots for comfort food, it's easy to eat before heading home. On top of that, shops seem to be renovating or popping up almost every month, so it feels like a new experience each time we visit. They also have fresh bakeries and desserts to take home, which is always tempting. Prices are great with a membership card, and every trip feels like a Costco-style stock-up run. Just remember to keep your grocery receipt handy since carts are checked at the exit.

Living 4 hours away from this Filipino supermarket makes me shed a tear a little. I was in Houston…read morefor the weekend and I asked my friend who was originally from Houston where a good Filipino spot would be to eat. He immediately said "Seafood City! It has everything!" So we went and it indeed had everything. The longest line was for Grill City. In all honesty, I feel like Grill City is a bit overhyped. The kare kare didn't taste like my father-in-law's. He makes the best kare kare. But you can't beat home cooking. Too bad my FIL is in CA. The liempo was good, but how can you really mess up grilled pork belly? However, I did like Sizzle. Their bangus sisig on a grilled platter was so delicious! I was jealous of my husband's pick. I also really loved the items at Valerio. Reminds me of Panorama City in CA. Everything here was light and bright and it smelled clean. Would I come back? Only if I'm in town. Next time I'll bring a big cooler.
