    The Veracruz Skillet 4 Diablo Shrimp + fajita combo
    Marisol G.

    The hostess was very kind, and helped us get a booth quickly. Our waiter was also very helpful, they were a bit busy at around 5:30pm and the food did take a while to come out. Overall the food was good, I just wish they would put more meat on the skillet. You're paying over $30 for 4 pieces of steak and 4 for chicken.

    Chips small and cracked to look like they are more, live a couple of miles from them, they were not warm. How they arrived via Door Dash.

    I normally get a soldados plate or fajitas, tried the tostada plate and was disappointed that it arrived cold and soggy. Ambiance is good, but watch it if you ever have it delivered. I think if packaging were better, it would not look like this.

    Visiting family from Dallas and came in for a very late lunch on a Saturday. The first thing I want to say is that I felt like I needed a winter coat. Brrr! With that thought, as a slow eater, I knew my food would get cold fast. I was tempted to order a salad just knowing that but we opted to start w/queso w/meaty beef chunks. Their Salsa Verde is not as tasty as Johnny Tamales but the queso dip made up for it... was the hit of the meal for me! SO GOOD! Entrees ordered were Beef Fajita Tacos (3) with homemade flour tortillas, Dirty Tostadas (2), I tried one of each of a Fish and a Shrimp Taco. The beef was very tender and well spiced. The tostadas were piled high and were very refreshing. The seafood tacos were each wrapped in foil so they kept the tacos warm longer. We enjoyed our meals very much. Service was very quick and friendly. I like the option of patio seating with the playground for kids. I would definitely choose this place over Johnny Tamales any day.

    I have always been a fan of the Tex-mex here. We had an amazing server, the food was good as always. I absolutely recommend.

    We stopped by to pick up dessert. We had never been here before but I was craving a tres leches and could only find it here. The to go server Arely was very welcoming and nice given it was five minutes until closing. The tres leches was delightful. It had a nice not too sweet marsh mellow icing topped with two cinnamon sugared pecans, a drizzle of caramel on the side and garnished with a fresh strawberry.

    Chicken Enchiladas
    Perry F.

    I ordered the Chicken Enchiladas and they were good. I would say 4/5 stars. I really liked the sauce and the chicken was good quality. My girlfriend ordered the Al Pastor Bowl and thought it was good. The meat was a little dry though. The restaurant was really nice and pleasant to be in. The service was nothing special. The food was slightly over priced in my option especially considering the portions sizes were kind of small. Over all I would give this restaurant about a 3.4. Better than a lot of places around the area, but nothing amazing.

    Came to Jimmy Changas for lunch during the week. We were very surprised to see no lunch menu offered. It was busy with plenty of seating still available. We ordered the beef fajitas for two and it was very underwhelming. Fajitas didn't come out hot (or sizzling) and beef wasn't flavorful. Tried a few drinks and nothing stood out. They seemed understaffed, as the drinks took 20+ minutes to come out. Ended up finishing lunch down the street to get better drinks. Overall, I will not be returning with the saturated Houston market of Tex-Mex options.

    Why do people go to these places. I met some friends from work there, their choice, not mine. Average food at best.

    Dosritas seem to get you a little cheated recently- fill up the glass guys! The fajitas are delicious! Beef Marisco is where it's at.

    You would think all the great cocktail bars would be in the heart of the city, but the Clear Lake…read morearea has some major contenders. Getting to this area from Pearland is much easier than heading into Houston so I was more than happy to come here. I've been here a couple of times and the most recent visit brought me and a party bus full of friends here on a Saturday night. The place gets busy but parking hasn't been an issue on any of my visits. It's a narrow bar that may seem tight, but it keeps going towards the back with more seating as well as a spacious patio. Customer service is always great and the bartenders know their stuff here. They have a pretty extensive drink menu here and there is something for everyone's preferences. They have a long list of cocktails and they can make you anything you want as well. The staff are experts here. They also have an impressive bourbon collections with about 200 kinds to choose from. Along with their cocktails, they have a long list of martinis. I love a good martini and here they have so many options. You can't go wrong with my favorite espresso martini, but the one that wowed me here was the Cucumber Patch. Cucumber flavor profile is not typically something I seek out, but I was in the mood for something refreshing and this was suggested to me. Get it and thank me later. As far as food goes, they have a separate BBQ business on site that sells some food. Don't sleep on the Bay Area if you are looking for a nice cocktail. This place will quickly be one of your favorites. I will surely be back.

    The Davenport Lounge Clear Lake has probably been there for years, and I somehow just now decided…read moreto check it out. I've driven by a countless number of times, and you'd never really know it's there. But walking in, you immediately get that local dive bar kinda vibe in the best way possible. I met up with some friends here for a chill drink after work, and to our surprise it was karaoke night! I have to applaud the regulars here because they can really SING! But don't be shy if you can't, they were welcome to everyone going up for a song. As far as drinks go, I had the Alimony. I was sold on it because it's gin, guava juice and elderflower liquor. Balanced, not too sweet, and had a little bit of sparkling effervescence. Pair that with a shot or a beer, and we were having a great time catching up with old friends. I don't remember our bartender's name, but she gave us great service. Overall 10/10 recommend the Davenport Lounge Clear Lake if you're looking for where the locals go, trust me they know best.
