Once again Bobby was such a kind soul and made sure everything came out perfectly!!! Thank you local foods

The patio area is my favorite if Houston's weather is blessing us I'm always sitting outside I usually get the CRUNCHY" CHICKEN sandwich with either side of Pozole or the chips so crispy and made in the moment.

During my first few visits, I could always count on fresh, creative sides like the Kung Pao cauliflower, but now there are very few vegetable side options.

I may give it another try after a seasonal menu update or if they make some changes, but for now, there are better options elsewhere...Also parking is always crowded and hard to find...

Went to Gypsy Poet on a Friday night with friends, and now I understand the hype. We ordered the…read morepepperoni pizza with hot honey, and it was spectacular. I can absolutely see why they're ranked among the top 10 pizzas in Texas. I know pepperoni pizza is about as basic as it gets, but when it's done right, it's hard to beat. The dough is crispy on the outside while still being soft and chewy on the inside, and I think that's what really makes their pizza stand out. I genuinely have no notes. We also ordered the Nutella and custard dessert pizza, which was fantastic. It was the perfect sweet treat to end the meal, and the dough was just as good on the dessert pizza as it was on the savory one. My only complaint is that the kitchen closes at 10 PM. Honestly, pizza this good should be available a little later! Overall, Gypsy Poet absolutely lives up to the hype. Great pizza, great dough, and a dessert pizza worth saving room for. I'll definitely be back.

My friend suggested this spot, and since I love pizza, I was happy to try out this Neapolitan-style…read morepizza joint. The place has a modern and rustic vibe. 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

Located in MKT, plenty of parking spaces all around but it does get crowded during peak time…read more Mendocino provides a variety of sandwiches and salads, incorporating fresh ingredients. You can order at the counter, and they will bring the food to you. It's more of a self-served place. One of my favorite items to get is their Peruvian steak sandwich. Very filling portion, steak is cooked perfectly. The steak is tossed in a spicy aji amarillo sauce but it's not too spicy. The sandwich also comes with bag of Boulder potato chips. The staff are always friendly here. The space is clean with plenty of tables to sit at. This is a quick and easy spot to grab a bite to eat anytime you're at MKT.

This was my first time visiting the Mendocino Farms location at MKT. I came with my family for…read moredinner, and although we had a pleasant experience, the food just didn't quite reach our expectations. The food was kind of underwhelming at this location. I've tried their meals (although from their other locations) and enjoyed them, so maybe it was just what we ordered or this specific location? Service was quick, though. I ordered the Chimichurri Steak sandwich, which was okay but nothing super memorable in my opinion. My parents ordered the Seasonal GOAT with Summer Peaches salad, which was also just okay. My sister, however, ordered the Lemon Chicken and Farro soup, which was actually pretty yummy and is something I would definitely order for myself. In terms of parking, there's plenty of spots available throughout the MKT area, but you may need to park farther away to snag a spot. Overall, if you're in the mood for a healthier sandwich or salad option and are in the MKT area, this place is worth trying. Maybe I'll come back and try something new.

Octopus tends to be quite chewy, but I think they cooked it perfectly. Our server was prompt in checking in on us, refilling our drinks, and clearing used dishes/utensils which I really appreciated.

Apologies for the quality of photos, we dug in before I remembered to snap a photo.

I've heard so much about Field & Tides, so when I was looking for a place in the area for dinner, I…read morefigured this was the perfect time to finally give it a try. We went around 6 p.m. on a weekday, and they had a steady flow of business. It's a small restaurant with a small parking lot, but they do have an additional lot across the street. We were greeted right away and seated immediately. Our waiter was also tending the bar. He was incredibly friendly and working hard, but because he seemed to be juggling so much on his own, service was on the slower side. For the appetizer, we ordered the Crispy Fried Oysters & Brussels, and I got the redfish for my entrée. The Brussels sprouts were flash-fried perfectly, and I loved the sweetness of the chili honey glaze. The oysters had a nice crispy coating, but I found them to be a little bland. The redfish, though, was absolutely the star of the meal. I cleaned my plate. It was served with Hoppin' John and a lemon butter sauce. I had never heard of Hoppin' John before, but it's essentially a Southern rice-and-bean dish, and paired with that lemon butter, it was so flavorful. It complemented the fish perfectly.

Delicious authentic Lebanese food, Genuine hospitality, great ambiance…read more Abdallah's Lebanese Caffe delivers one of the most authentic and memorable Lebanese dining experiences in Houston. The kitchen excels from the very first course: the kibbe is exceptional, perfectly balanced, delicately textured, and arguably the finest I've ever had. The grilled selections showcase remarkable quality, from a melt‑in‑your‑mouth tenderloin to richly seasoned kafta. The standout, however, is the lamb chops, prepared so beautifully that even my wife, who rarely enjoys lamb, was genuinely impressed. Their commitment to authenticity is evident in every dish, thanks to olive oil and spices imported directly from southern Lebanon. The atmosphere is equally inviting. As a family‑owned establishment, Abdallah's shines through the warm presence of Susan and Fares, who ensure every guest feels welcomed and cared for. We were visiting from Dallas and stopped for lunch, but the breakfast menu alone is reason enough for a return trip. Abdallah's Lebanese Caffe is a place we'll happily revisit every time we're in Houston.

I love high quality ingredients and feel like they go a long way. But even more I feel like knowing what to do with ingredients go even further. I hate buying high quality ingredients meals where the chef did little to enhance the food. Not at all the case here. EVERY dish you order while have the chef's handprint on it and I F'n LOVE IT!! I've enjoyed ChopnBlok since I first tried it at POST Houston but I'll leave this review to focus on the Montrose location. Now come on this review journey with me! I had been meaning to come here for a minute but had never gotten around to it and the first time I did was when a friend told me about "Parlay on the Blok", which is a block party series they do and this one they had collabed with The Breakfast Klub!!! So combining with one of the places that is already one of my top spots in the city plus good vibes I had to pull up. It was popping there so was a thing to get a spot and get that order in but I'm glad I did. Beyond the fact that it was a good vibe for the culture and the community out there. The food hit! We got there late for the block party so some items had ran out and honestly it was for the best because I would've ended up buying some of everything they were offering. I got the Wings & Rice and the Malt Short Ribs and Grits. The first was The Breakfast Klub's wings with Afro brunch fried rice. The second came with a dòdò pepper relish with a malt demi-glaze. Boy oh boy! Already knew the wings was going to hit and the fried rice paired really well with it. The short rib was so damn tender and the relish and glaze just....just give me some more! Both of them are dishes I would order again if they were on a constant menu. As someone who doesn't eat pork, I love that this is a spot that I can count on putting out delicious food packed with flavor and know they have not a lick of pork on the menu. Now for their regular menu items lol. I was in the area so I popped in for their happy hour and of course they delivered. Love that they have the community tables, which allows for people to get a table as a walk up but not at the bar. It also creates a special space to connect with strangers, as you can be sat across the table from someone you've never met as you both enjoy deliciousness. If you haven't noticed yet I love this place and will basically only have good things to say, and it all comes from the most honest space. Happy hour offers some of their main dishes just in smaller portions. I started off with the Suya and Cheese patties and I honestly have a hard time imagining me coming here and not ordering these. From the flaky breading to the meat and cheese inside it does everything it's supposed to. I also got the Golden bowl and every bit of it was delicious. You can give me a side of the Jollof Jambalaya everyday and I'd be good. I'm usually not for alcohol with my food but was in the mood for a cocktail and I wasn't sure on the Irie Punch and my waitress brought me and shot of Irie Punch that I quickly ordered after tasting. The Deviled Scotch Egg is suck your teeth and fingers good. It's so damn good that I literally had some of the greens they sit on and thought it was the egg filling on it just to realize it was the dressing they had on it. I was sucking the damn mini salad off my fingers it was so good. For the greens and dressings, which are just garnish for the egg, to be that good is truly ridiculous. I got a side of the Waakye Fried Rice not realizing it is a black rice dish, but even that was still good. Chef Ope Amosu does not miss with a single dish served. They have been Michelin recognized and I honestly think it is beyond well deserved. Not quit reading my review and figure out why I love this place for yourself.

And the prices are so reasonable that you can really sample a significant amount from the main menu in small portions for less than half the price of the full order. Service is always stellar, I mean absolutely stellar ALWAYS. The place is always lively. It's been a while since I went not sure if there was a shift in the menu or if I'm remembering incorrect but even though I genuinely enjoyed it, I feel like it was not as good as it used to be to be. Mind you it was still excellent. One thing has not changed which is the plantain bread one of my favorite desserts. We had suya, plantain chips, beef pies, coconut chicken bites and I had the plantain bread and the new dessert. ( new dessert not my thing)

A "zeppelin" (salad stuffed in bread) includes 4 ingredients and a salad includes six. You have the option to order a zeppelin or salad that is on the menu or you can build your own.

The staff is always so sweet and ask the right questions to ensure they are making my order correctly.
