A year after the Barbie movie hype, and now we get to experience it in real life! The vibe is super…read moregirly, so I had to make my reservation online before time ran out. Parking was easy but, you do have to pay. As soon as I opened the door, it was pink everywhere! I was expecting the staff to bring the Barbie energy with cute, sassy vibes, but their greeting felt pretty low energy, which was a bit disappointing. Oh well--I was still excited for my girl date. The ticket included $10 towards the meal, so I ordered a burger with fries. Not bad! I thought maybe they'd add a hint of pink to the food for the full Barbie experience, but I guess a burger fits the beach vibe too. Overall, the cafe is mostly about the aesthetics, with everything decked out in pink, but not a lot of interactive elements. I loved seeing the little girls skating around with their parents. But for adult Barbie fans, I'm not sure it quite hit the mark.

It was an expensive experience that was underwhelming. If you love Barbie you'll have fun but it…read moredoesn't have many photo opportunities and the merchandise is not great. The food is subpar and the service was slow. There wasn't much to do but I am glad I did it. I wouldn't recommend it and it isn't something I'd do again unless it was significantly better and had more picture options. It's almost gone, so if you have FOMO go now. Otherwise save your money and skip it.

It's family-owned, which I like since the owners are hands-on and polite. The staff themselves care a lot and that's really good to see since they're happy to help. They serve drinks and small treats which I think makes sense considering they offer XBOX and have guests who come in for other means of buying collectibles to avoid major mess. I personally love the Syrax drink and I'm a fan of coming since everyone is so friendly. I strongly suggest this place for a more cozy, intimate sort of vibe. I love seeing places like this do well and will happily come back again.

I'm from Dallas visiting Houston and wanted to take my two year old here since she's been showing…read morean interest in cats. I love the concept and idea of a safe place for cats and us being able to play with them so we decided to take time out of our morning to check this place out. The cats were friendly, mainly sleeping but it was well maintained and looked like a clean and safe environment for the cats. The reason for my low review is due to the way the business is handling a refund which I thought would be simple and is based on a confusion with their staff members. Online, it states a reservation needs to be made so while reading the rules, we made a reservation. I signed the waiver for myself and my 2 kids and walked in first. I saw they had a 30% military discount and asked if I could get a refund and repurchase. I was told she couldn't refund but since it didn't apply online, I would be able to email them and request for the difference back. Ok, no big deal. I paid for the second adult in store since now I know, we get military discount. Fast forward, I email and they refuse to give a refund. They said online, they can't verify that we qualify for the discount which is why we can only get the discount in store. I find it extremely rude for them to continue to emphasize that discounts are not applicable to online reservation since their system can't verify it when they could just simply ask for us to send through email our ID to get the price difference back like many other businesses would. I could also send the receipt showing where they did already verify us in store and where the discount is applied in store. The employee told me I would be able to request a refund and if I can prove my eligibility, I feel like they should honor it. They did offer a complimentary visit but again, I'm from Dallas so with this bad experience, I'm not enticed to return or recommend this place.

My dogs love this place! This unassuming dog bar is located on Montrose Boulevard. There are a few…read moreparking spots out front and also street parking in the neighborhood. There is a small turfed area where dogs can run around and potty. The front area has tables and chairs for the humans to relax at. Inside they have a ton of doggy treats and a full dog menu. My dogs' favorite pup tail is the Doggy on the Beach and they also love Dog Shots! They also sell seltzers, beers, and nonalcoholic options for the humans. The owner is so sweet and you can tell he truly loves what he does. They have events for various occasions...the last event we went to was their Easter egg hunt and my dogs got a ton of treats! Be sure to follow their instagram for event details. Definitely a great place to come and socialize with other dogs (and humans).

For $9, your pup can have a specialty "puptail" of their choice: The Hawaiian Pawty Punch (antioxidants + almond milk), Doggy on the Beach (savory broth + carrots & peas) or the Mutt Mai Tai (tropical fruits + coconut milk). For a dollar less, you can also order a canned Good Boy Dog Beer. For humans, they serve canned and bottled beverages, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. We ordered the Doggy on the Beach for our two pups, but after a few sips, they weren't too content with their order. They typically love savory, but this special blend was bland. Though intentions are well, the dog bar could offer a lot more. For one) parking-- there is none, as their lot is used for their patio. Two) They do not sell food for the pups, but they have the potential to expand their menu 3) Due to the limited space, they do not offer indoor seating, and the outdoor seating they do have are three frugal ables with a few seats.

The falafel is absolutely outstanding--perfectly crisp on the outside, fresh and flavorful on the inside--and everything else we've tried has been just as on point. Every dish feels thoughtfully prepared and packed with flavor. It's the kind of place that quietly becomes a favorite after the first visit. Taj Asweet Cafe is truly a hidden gem that takes Houston by surprise in the best way possible. Amazing coffee, incredible food, and a place we'll keep coming back to.
