    the front of the building
    HsiaoCheng W.

    I was with a child and we felt a bit uncomfortable with all the employee sitting around in the customer seating area shooting the sh*t, so we left as we needed a place to sit down to eat. Let me be clear. The workers were not working and were not having lunch. 4 of them were all sitting at the same table shooting the sh*t. And that's fine. But I just don't care for that environment. Maybe you do. The temperature outside the day we went was mid 50's. No stores were closed due to weather.

    Cajun Chicken and Penne

    I just have to mention how great JP's service was! He really went above and beyond to help me choose the perfect dish. I was craving something spicy, so he recommended the Cajun pasta, and it was absolutely fantastic. Cooked to perfection!

    Found this little gym on my health kick. This is my new addiction. This place satisfies the health nut or the average person. They have it all out for u to read can satisfy any diet. But the big thing is the food can be guilt free and good. The wrap was fresh and the chicken was cooked on the spot. I would just ask for extra sauce. I'm a saucy person. But I can't wait to be back to try the burgers and pasta and protein shakes. Servers were nice and paying attention, and owners were watching, making sure everyone was taken care of.

    Amazing food amazing service can't wait to go again I can't believe I have been working around here over a year and I barely saw this place

    Burger (not cooked through)
    Charley G.

    Cool place and good food! Their burgers taste really good and are pretty healthy at the core, so you don't feel guilty for eating a "cheat meal." My favorite dish: the turkey chili bowl. 5/5. I had the privilege to meet the owner today, and It seems he cares about the food quality in addition to his customers' experience. Would definitely recommend!

    Chicken Caesar with shrimp at home:)'
    James R.

    Sitting at home after 8pm I just didn't feel like going anywhere so I hopped on Uber Eats searched under healthy and this place came up I had heard about them so onto the menu. I chose a Grilled chicken Caesar salad and which I added protein grilled shrimp and OMG! This has to be one of the best Caesar salad I've ever had I think the only thing that could've made it better would be fresh Parmesan didn't really realize it was missing that until just now while writing the review though. Maybe it's because I haven't been eating well the last two weeks but nevertheless it was an absolute lifesaver and I will be ordering again.

    Rocky Wrap
    Greg B.

    They serve really good food for reasonable prices with an emphasis on healthy without necessarily being salads. Located next to the venerable Briargrove Pharmacy and 24 Hour Fitness parking lot on San Felipe at Winrock. I had the Rocky Wrap with a side of steamed broccoli and a Coke Zero. I was trying to be good today and this filled me up without blowing my diet. Good flavors with chicken breast, turkey meatballs, a little mozzarella and marinara sauce in the Rocky wrap. While some of the other reviewers seemed to have nit picky problems with this restaurant, I really liked it. I don't get how our experiences could be this different. Bring the bar down in terms of expectations with restaurants like this where you can easily get in and out for $12 per person. This is not supposed to be Tony's in Greenway Plaza.

    Finally found something that provides healthy options other than salad in Houston. Small location, but they are efficient in the space. Order at the counter, then the meal is served to you at a table or at the "bar". My meal the SantaFe wrap and a side Caesar salad that was included was prepared fresh. Here is the great part, it was very flavorful! Not overwhelmed with sauce. The chicken was lean but not dried out! Today I did eat the jalapeno wrap, but if you are on the Keto diet, it is easy to eat just the protein out of the dish. Glad I found this gem! Typically this area does not offer many healthy eating choices that actually taste good. I will be returning anytime I am in the area!!

    Can you even find the chicken under all of the sauce?
    Sarah H.

    Not good at all. The only reason that this is not one star is because they got the order right. Haha! I know that delivery won't be as good as the in-restaurant dining, but these were definitely not all delivery related issues. The Texas was nearly inedible! 1)The chicken was so hard tough that it broke the plastic knife it came with. I couldn't even eat a few pieces of it. 2)There was WAY too much sauce. I felt like I ordered sauce with a side of chicken and broccoli. I ended up cleaning a lot of it off with napkins. 3)The cheese used looked and tasted like shredded sliced cheese. It was not good, and just slid off the chicken in sheets. The Burger was bland and soggy. I imagine that was because of the condensation from the heat in the box. The Burger could be better packaged for delivery. I'm not sure how they expect bread to fare well in a completely tight sealed plastic box that's barely big enough for the burger. I had to call to get the nutrition information on the slice of cheesecake because it was not advertised. They weren't even able to tell me more than that it had 30 carbs, 4 grams of fiber, 4 grams of sugar, and no indication on how much of that is sugar substitute. Not a great thing for someone who is ordering sugar-free cheesecake. Lastly, I paid $2.99 for a "side" of guacamole, and got the tiniest amount of guac. It was maybe the amount of a melon baller scoop. NOT worth $2.99. The whole meal cost basically $30 and was not an enjoyable lunch. Definitely do not understand the hype.

    I rarely post on Yelp, as a matter a fact this is my first. I stopped in for a protein shake after receiving positive recommendations from the Orangetheory staff. Maybe the food is good‍ My strawberry protein shake was AWFUL. No real strawberries; fresh or frozen...base liquid is water and one sip left a horrible artificial sweetener taste in my mouth. Geez, I never imagined someone could mess up a protein shake...first and last visit to this spot.

    I might have just found one of my new favorite restaurants in Houston. What a great experience!…read more Recently, a good friend dined here and immediately called me to tell me how great it was. She then text our friends group and said we all had to come together and we did just that. She made reservations in advance as this place is popular thanks to recent Michelin Bib Gourmand awards as well as many other accolades. Walk ins are welcome as well. Our reservation was later in the evening so after a night of bar hopping, we ride shared in which I think is one of the best options as parking is limited here or you have to find street parking in the neighborhood. This place is literally a house turned into a restaurant. Inside is just multiple rooms with a couple of tables. It makes for a unique, intimate dining experience, perfect for a date night. In our case, we were a group of nine so we got patio seating. The patio is spacious and well kept, and if the weather cooperates, a great place to hang. One thing that really stood out to me is the amazing ambience of this place. I was told that the bartenders pick the music for the night from the owners extensive vinyl collection. Once the album is in, they play it in it's entirety. The sound system was systeming and on top of the great company and food, we were totally vibing with the music. Customer service was amazing. Every staff member we came across was so friendly, especially our server. The menu here changes. There are some mainstays, but they like to change things up. Their website shows current menus daily. We were told that family style is the best way to experience this restaurant. I am one of those people that will always listen to the staff and go with their suggestions. Our group went through quite a bit of their menu from apps, entrees and desserts. I loved that our server and staff brought our food out one by one in what they thought was the best progression so we could take a culinary journey. We started off light with their popular Dilly Bread. Best bread I've had in awhile. Next was the Texas Tartare. It was my first ever tartare and it was delicious. We then moved on to Fingerlingin Good which was a crispy potato dish with chili crisp and mascarpone. It was potatoes elevated to the highest level and so so good. Next up was Beer Battered Sweet Tots. I didn't think sweet potatoes could be that good. Our first entree was a vegan dish called the Carroty Kid. I could seriously become a vegan if all dishes tasted like this. It was curried. A bowl of jasmine rice would've made it a complete meal. Next we tried another famous Nobie's dish called Nonno's Pasta. Handmade, perfectly cooked tagliatelle with a delicious bolognese. I wouldn't share this next time. Ok, I will, but it was that good. On to the heavier dishes. First up was the Jamon With Your Bad Self. This came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. It was favorite heavy entree. It was high quality, iberico pork steak with shaved brussels and all kinds of other tasty ingredients that when combined made such a tasty bite. We then went to the sea with the Drops of Grouperter. It was good, but not something I would order again. It was a little too smoky for my liking. Our biggest dish that came market priced was the Kick His Ass Seabass. This was a whole fish that was presented beautifully on a platter with all the accouterments to make your own elevated fish tacos. We left no morsel of fish behind. It was absolutely delicious. One of the things this place is really known for is their pies. This was the part I was most excited about. Just like their menu, their pies change up. We got all their offerings that night which they presented on one big platter of goodness. Their main stay and I believe always on the menu is the famous Olive Oil Cake. It's not a pie, but I can see why this is such a popular dessert. I can't even describe it, you just have to try it to understand. The pies we had were the Black Bottom Strawberry Pie, Banana Rum, and the Peanut Butter Pie. I would order all of them again. We all had a difference of opinion on which was the best, but my fave was the Banana Rum. Overall, I was highly impressed with this place and kind of mad at myself for waiting so long to make it here. It had made it's way to the top of my list of favorite restaurants in Houston. I will be back.

    Flavors, flavors, flavors! This was another on our list of Michelin Bibendum spots to try, and we…read morethoroughly enjoyed the meal. We started with a dozen oysters 2 ways. The first were "natural" and nicely briny. The 2nd was pure genius: they said it would taste like a Big Mac, and they were spot on. Amazing! Steak Tartare - the steak and deviled egg mixture were satisfyingly velvety and the accompanying bread was buttery, chewy, and addictive; Puff Puff Pass - unique textures: crispy, chewy, smooth elements are married beautifully. Nonno's Pasta - this dish was my least favorite. I found the flavors to be too cheese forward with not enough acid; Jamon With Your Bad Self - while not much to look at, this dish was outstanding. The pork's texture was simply magical, and the flavors well-balanced. On the side, we had the Fingerlingin Good potatoes, and they lived up to their name: pleasantly crispy and bursting with savory goodness. Desserts: the Olive Oil Cake was a dream: incredibly moist and tender with vanilla richness and a kiss of lemon. The Black Bottom Pie was not my favorite. I would the salt to be too much and couldn't eat more than 2 bites because of it. Service: warm, gracious, attentive, and efficient. As for ambiance, this is where the restaurant misses the mark for me. It's in an old house, and when we walked in, that's exactly what I smelled: old house. Still, if you're looking for a unique, creative menu that delivers on flavors, add nobie's to your bingo card.
