The food has been amazing every visit, and everyone I've brought here has loved it so much they've come back on their own. One thing I really appreciate is that every server, no matter who we have, always asks about food allergies. It's a thoughtful touch that helps ensure everyone can enjoy their meal without worry. The drinks are always delicious, and their Happy Hour menu is easily one of the best in the Heights. This spot has become one of my favorites, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food, drinks, and outstanding service.

It's really really nicely rebuilt inside this place, when it used to be a church. I do like their rice bowls, but it always comes with 6 bites of rice and 3 bites of protein. Service was quite prompt, since we were part of an event. Lastly, I disagree with their offering of their beer garden as a private event option when this place has 4 fans in each corner of the room, strong indeed, but better be strong because it has no AC. It's Houston, 90+° on average, 6 months of the year. Ugh.

They have a decent number of spots, but with how busy the restaurant was, I can see parking being an issue during peak hours. We started with the Chả Giò Tôm Jalapeño Popper and the Crispy Taro Shrimp, and honestly, these were my favorite bites of the entire meal! The jalapeño popper was crispy with a sauce that had a nice kick to it. I just wish there had been a little more sauce! The crispy taro shrimp was exactly as described: a crispy, golden ball of shrimp. Both appetizers were fantastic! For entrées, we ordered the Surf & Turf Bò Né and the Baller Fried Rice. The surf and turf was good, and I enjoyed how tender the beef was. The fried rice was also tasty and came in a HUGE portion, but neither dish was particularly standout compared to the appetizers. Now, the Ube Crème Brûlée was my favorite dessert! It was sooo creamy and luscious, with the perfect coconut flavor complementing the ube. Our waitress was polite and attentive throughout the meal and never made us feel rushed, which I appreciated given how busy they were. My only thought was that they close pretty early for a tavern, at 10 PM.

The Rice Box on 20th is a solid option if you're looking for quick, very Americanized Chinese food…read morein the Heights. It is very much a chain restaurant, and it has that polished, standardized feel to it. I've eaten here a number of times, and while I wouldn't say the food stands out above some of the other Chinese restaurants in the area, everything I've had has always been good. I've never gotten anything that tasted bad or had an order come out wrong. It's just consistently solid. One sleeper hit on their menu, though, is the lava buns. They're warm egg custard buns like you'll sometimes find at dim sum places, and they are really good. Honestly, they're probably one of my favorite things here. I've even stopped by after already having dinner just to get an order to take home for dessert. They're definitely best hot, so I'd recommend eating them pretty quickly. The design of the restaurant is probably more memorable than the main food. They really committed to a specific industrial, techno-chic look with neon signs, animated menu boards, exposed metal, acrylic panels, textured wall details, and movies playing by the bar. The theme is carried throughout the whole place really well. At the same time, all of the metal and harder surfaces can make the inside feel a little cold and unwelcoming. There isn't much traditional indoor seating. Most of the seating inside is at the bar, with additional tables outside under some shade. Because of that, it's probably not my first choice for sitting down for lunch during a hot Houston day, but it works really well as a pickup or takeout spot. The staff has always been friendly, and they have a good system for getting people in and out. The parking lot is a little small, but since a lot of people seem to be picking up food, spots turn over pretty quickly. Overall, The Rice Box is convenient, dependable, and does what it does well. It definitely feels like a chain, but the design has a strong personality and the food is consistently good. It's not my favorite Chinese food in the Heights, but I've never had a bad experience here. And the lava buns are absolutely worth getting.

The drink was super creamy and the liquor blends nicely with the coffee, I give it a 7/10.

Overall, this speakeasy is such a vibe and it is inspired by southeast asian flavors which makes it unique! It's dim-lit in there and the decor is also southeast asian inspired- i'd love for them to have some music playing to create an even better vibe.

Being recognized among the 25 best new restaurants in the country certainly caught our attention, and we were curious to discover what made this Houston restaurant so special. We arrived with high expectations, and I can confidently say that the experience did not disappoint. The first thing that stood out wasn't the food, but the people and the atmosphere. From the moment we walked through the door until we left, the hospitality was extraordinary. Our server, Jorge, was wonderful, but what truly impressed us was how that same level of warmth, professionalism, and attentiveness extended to the entire staff. Everyone made us feel genuinely welcome, something that speaks volumes about the restaurant's commitment to hospitality. The atmosphere complemented the experience perfectly. The restaurant had a lively, welcoming energy, with great music playing at just the right volume, loud enough to enjoy but never interfering with conversation. It's those thoughtful details, combined with exceptional service, that make a dining experience truly memorable. Then came the food, and this is where the experience became even more interesting. We started with the Savory Scallion Waffle with Fried Orange Chicken, and what an incredible combination of flavors! The chicken was cooked to perfection, with a beautifully crispy exterior that reminded me of traditional Southern fried chicken. But what really elevated the dish was the orange sauce. Its sweet and tangy character complemented the savory chicken beautifully, creating a combination that felt both familiar and surprisingly different. The scallion waffle was equally impressive. It had everything a properly prepared waffle should have: a lightly crispy, golden exterior, a soft and tender interior, and plenty of flavor. What made the dish exceptional was the perfect balance between savory and sweet. The richness of the fried chicken, the sweetness and acidity of the orange sauce, and the savory notes of the waffle worked together in complete harmony. Nothing overpowered anything else. Every component complemented the others, making this a truly memorable interpretation of chicken and waffles. Next came the Chilled Noodles, a dish that immediately caught our attention because, unlike the noodle dishes we're accustomed to, these were served cold. It was an interesting change, but one that worked beautifully. The flavors were excellent, delivering everything you would expect from a great noodle dish, with the ginger and scallion adding a wonderful savory character. However, what really stood out to both of us were the pieces of pickled shiitake mushrooms. Their earthy, rich flavor, combined with a subtle tanginess, added an unexpected dimension to the noodles. It's amazing how one ingredient can elevate an entire dish, and in this case, the mushrooms did exactly that. What initially seemed like an unusual choice turned into another pleasant surprise. Of course, no brunch would be complete without a couple of good cocktails, so we ordered a Mimosa and a Bloody Mary. Both were very good, but the Mimosa particularly stood out. It was well prepared, refreshing, and had a generous pour of alcohol. They certainly didn't skimp on the champagne! It had just the right balance of flavor and strength, making it clear that Agnes & Sherman takes its cocktails just as seriously as its food. A great complement to an already excellent brunch. Just when we thought we had experienced all the culinary surprises of the afternoon, dessert arrived. We ordered the Pandan Nice Cream Sundae, and this was probably our most unexpected discovery. Nice cream is a plant-based alternative to traditional ice cream, and I wasn't entirely sure what to expect from a vegan frozen dessert. To our surprise, it was incredibly flavorful, wonderfully light, and refreshing. The pandan brought a delicate, distinctive flavor that made the dessert feel different from a traditional ice cream sundae. It was satisfying without feeling heavy or overly rich, making it the perfect way to finish brunch. Definitely a pleasant surprise and something we would happily order again. The restaurant was packed during brunch, so I would strongly recommend making a reservation in advance. Also, be prepared for a little challenge when it comes to parking. There was no valet service available, and finding street parking can be difficult, especially during busy hours. My advice is to arrive a little early and allow yourself extra time to find a spot. Looking back at our visit, what impressed me most was how everything came together. The extraordinary hospitality made us feel welcome from beginni

The wings are also a must have! I would've liked for the skin to remain crispy--even while doused on the yummy sauce. The brisket fried rice brought everything together, but we wondered if the brisket actually showed up? Maybe it was playing dress up--Casper, the friendly ghost? Virtually invisible!

It's not a combo I get bored of easily, so I was happy to try another rendition. And I'm happy to say I really enjoyed it. We started off by sharing the brisket egg rolls and the brisket curly fries - both were home runs. No notes. I really wanted to try the brussels sprouts too but was overruled on that. And then I ordered a bowl with pad thai and brisket. The brisket was very thinly sliced and I'd call it more "good" than "great", but the pad thai noodles were absolute heaven. Some of the best I've had in a long time, to be honest. A cool thing about the restaurant is that there's a secret door that takes you into a space with a completely different vibe - somewhat of an upscale speakeasy situation. We were the only people in the place, but I could definitely see how they could utilize both spaces, whether just want some fast casual-ish dining or kind of a fancy night out. A really unique concept on both fronts and I hope to visit again!
