Broccoli shrimp
Jessica B.

Ordered takeout online & was happy to find that my order was ready at the estimated time. I was greeted immediately upon arrival, the gentlemen at the front desk was nice & invited me to help myself to any condiments I wanted. I ordered their fried rice, basil chicken & shrimp with broccoli. The fried rice & basil chicken was great, my only comment would be that the shrimp in the shrimp with broccoli order were pretty small in comparison to most Asian restaurants, nonetheless the flavor was good & the serving size was plentiful. For portion size reference, I split my order with my mom & still had leftovers for the next day which meant my $30 was well spent!

Fried Rice, japanese Green tea, Shrimp and Scallops.

Friendly little storefront spot with counter service and about 3 tables. The food came quickly and was very good. I had the shrimp and scallops and my partner had fried rice - both were delicious.

Happen upon this place and everything looked so great!! Started with some edamame and veggie rolls. Wifey had shrimp tempura which was amazing! I ordered the chicken wing fried rice plate and it was great, but the game changer was the lemon pepper dip thing they give you.....OMFG!! We'll have to come back whenever we're at least ten miles from this place!! Attendant was courteous, polite and willing to help with the menu. Ambiance is quaint which is a definite plus!

Great food and fast fast service! The Taiwan satay beef was key! It so close to Maplewood and Meyerland. Decided to check it out and don't regret!

They've updated the inside with a bunch more seating!

Really happy Pepper Salt is here - it's a great addition to the area. Simple, tasty, quaint. What more do you need? The owner is nice and inside is cute and well kept. The menu isn't huge but still has a good variety. Food is good, portions are generous, and a good value price wise. I'm a sucker for the kimchi rice 10/10.

Great food for a low price! Today I was checking the highest rating food spots in Houston and pepper salt pulled up as it's known for its fried rice and ramen. So I thought about giving It a try during this rainy day. Walking in the restaurant is like a mom and pop shop with a few seats, music and just one area to place your order. The owner is pretty friendly but was a bit confused when I asked to keep the merchant copy of my receipt because I wanted to eat the food first before I tipped. I ordered the spicy tonkatsu ramen The ramen came pretty fast and was hot that on my first sip I burned my tongue. I want to make clear that this is not a Japanese restaurant this a Chinese restaurant so the noodles were not egg noodles but they were still good. They had a good pull on them and slurped well. The broth was delicious but not spicy enough I asked for more chili oil and that helped a lot. My only caveat is if you compare this to other ramen you got a Japanese restaurant (like I did) you'll notice that some of the ingredients weren't as fresh as usual. The nori was good, bamboo shoots were not too sweet but kept its crunch and the tonkatsu was a bit tough. Overall I believe the hype behind this restaurant and will come again the next time I'm in Houston

Newly opened cafe featuring Taiwanese snacks with a mix of traditional Asian flavors and more popular Western ones. It's a small place, about the size of a coffee/bubble tea shop with 5-6 tables. Plenty of parking as it's in a small strip center. We ended up ordering something from every section of the menu and enjoyed all of it. However, the fried rice was the standout of the night. All fried rice are not created equal. We ordered the combo fried rice and it struck the perfect balance of flavor, ingredients, and texture. The rice was moist, it wasn't too salty, and it also came out piping hot! Days later, I'm still thinking about it. Everyone else must have also figured out the fried rice is special here, as I saw ~5 to go orders also order fried rice to go. Lychee milk tea (5/5): great lychee flavor and not too sweet - would definitely order again. Chicken nuggets (5/5): ample amount of fried basil leaves, nuggets seasoned well - again not too salty, chicken still juicy and not overcooked Spicy basil wings (4/5): cooked well, not spicy despite the name, flavor was good, but I prefer dry rub, so rating based more on preference Asian spiced Fried tofu (4/5): Asian spice = traditional salt and pepper, fried super crispy and comes with a savory dipping sauce, the Asian spice was a little light, would try a different flavor next time Combo fried rice (5+/5): shrimp, chicken, and beef all cooked to perfection, the fragrance of the green onion wafting from the fried rice was so good. The rice was moist and not too greasy either. One of the best fried rice I've had. Crawfish fried rice (4/5): rice just as good as the other order, but has some heat/spice to it. I prefer the combo but again that's mostly preference. They only had one person working in the back, so service was as fast as it could be given everything was being made to order. I don't think we waited more than 15 min for our food. They've only been open a few weeks so I think they're still staffing up. Will definitely be back!

Shrimp fried rice

I drove by this place many times before I gave it a try, and now I've been here 3 days in a row for lunch! It is great. The owner is extremely friendly and they do have limited seating inside and out but a very relaxed environment. The food is awesome. So far I have eaten: Day 1: Vegetable fried rice & Shrimp fried rice My eyes were definitely bigger than my stomach so I took some home for seconds! Day 2: Spicy Ramen (Extra Spicy) Day 3: Combo (beef, chicken, and shrimp fried rice Small business. Come check it out!!

Crawfish fried rice
Jen G.

FOOD: scrumptious! Good value - good portions and quality. Deep, rich flavors. Menu is concise with good variety. BEST: crawfish fried rice. SERVICE: good! Weekday at 6pm-- low traffic, filled 30% capacity, quick service, order-to-table time 10 mins. Order and pay at counter, self-sitting. Staff is courteous and polite. AMBIANCE: quaint, small dinning area with limited siting (indoor sitting only). Harsh natural lighting at sunset, warm temperature as a result of the floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall glass store front. Comfortable noise volume. Will return!

Peeps. Grab some grub on the go and it was everything my Elite Village said it was. Small space so I recommend to get it and keep moving. The food was hot and fresh and tasted great. The hey also let you grab as much duck sauce as you want which shocked me. But don't be greedy. Definitely on my list for takeout and take home. Fall through and tell them Dk sent you. #DrKindness

Food and Fun in one…read more Went in on a Friday late afternoon and they were packed. The wait time was 25 min. Friend found 2 seats at the bar so we snatched them right up. They have a diverse menu and a happy hour that starts at 2 pm. Ordered: chicken fajita quesadillas Chicken fajita quesadillas (4/5) - great portion size and the chicken was cooked deliciously and the right portion of cheese to meat; my only complaint is that the part of the tortilla that was plate side was a bit soggy and not as crispy. The rice was really good, flavored and cooked well (sometimes rice can be dry) and the beans. I'm not a beans person but their beans were one of the best I've had. The staff was super friendly and attentive even with how busy they were. The bartender was a cutie and was helpful explaining the different items to us. And the server Jazz was awesome. And they know how to celebrate birthdays! It was so fun! Shot, shot, shot They also had a lot of fun looking drinks. Will def return! Many things I want to try.

We samples a couple flavors of margaritas before we ordered, the flavors were tasty. The food, the food, the food! Yes, it was extra flavorful and the portions are huge, especially after you've been eating some of their delicious chips and salsa, both red and green were tasty. The ambiance is vibrant, great music, happy people, full bar on the other side of the restaurant. It's giving good times.

This place is a little hidden gem that I always like to stop at when I'm htx area.

My family and I finally decided to check out this place when we were in the City of Bellaire area…read more The name sounded cute and the indoor casual/chill decor made it feel inviting & homey. The employee seemed like he was the only one and there was a couple dining in who seemed to be regulars after their farewells. I didn't realize it was a build your own bowl/sandwich/salad concept which I thought was unique! Everything was packaged nicely to go since we had to eat at home. I did make the mistake of not checking the order because we realized the pho broth wasn't included which was disappointing! I ended up not going back or calling to report it since I knew it would be too inconvenient to drive all the way back. After the kids refused it, I did try it vermicelli style but the steak was little too salty. The beef banh mi was good but the portion was much smaller than I expected compared to a traditional size. The eggrolls were also on the smaller side but were decent typically eggrolls. I also ended up trying the lychee lemonade but the flavoring wasn't as well balanced. Overall it was not as satisfactory as I would have hoped but wouldn't mind giving another chance to try other menu items like the pork banh mi or viet coffee. Edit after establishment's comment: I realized my misunderstanding of the menu of no broth included now. Unfortunately, we did not enjoy the steak as vermicelli and salad style as much either. Thank you for the clarification.
