I needed a quick coffee and breakfast tacos while in Houston for a quick trip. The coffee was good, and the breakfast tacos are big, two come with the order so they are shareable. One will fill you up. read more

Rado Market - LATTE and OXTAIL & EGG TACOS - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

This was my second timing dining at Rado; I came back bc I love the history and the mission and vision behind LRG. And because I enjoyed my first experience. Today I had the Standard, upgraded with french toast and again, I'm pleased. The food takes time, so prepare yourself. Browse the shop, pop over next door to Kindred or to have a sit in their outdoor dining space and relax. Meal was satisfactory- you do have to do the French toast- so good it didn't need syrup. My eggs were salty; but it didn't stop me from eating them. Def support this establishment next time you're in third ward. Two word review: solid brunch. read more

The cutest coffee shop located next to the most vibrant and eccentric black owned library, Kindred Stories! I met up with some coworkers to do some work and there was ample space to meet. They even have a room in the back if you need something quieter plus tables and chairs outside if you want to soak up some vitamin D while working! Omg, that oxtail burger!?! I was skeptical at first, but when I say 10 out of 10!!! It was so good that I recommended it to my coworker, who's a picky eater. After a little convincing, she ordered it and was amazed at how good it was! AND THOSE FRIES!? Idk what kind of seasoning they put on them but whew, they were so good! To quench my thirst, I ordered the cucumber mint limeade with a splash of lavender-chef's kiss!!! I will definitely be coming back and bringing others along! read more

Rado Market - Oxtail Smash Burger - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

Why 5 stars? Because my burger was absolutely delicious. --- --- --- I had my Dad meet me here for a pre-game dinner before we went to an Astros game and ended up really happy with this choice. I took one look at the menu and knew I wanted the Oxtail burger, so that was an easy decision. I also wanted mac-n-cheese, but they were out of that, so I ordered the fries instead. While I was bummed to miss out on the mac, the fries were awesome, so no regrets there. If you are a person who is a little weary of the "oxtail" part, I can assure you that you would never know the difference between a regular burger and this. I definitely couldn't tell anything out of the ordinary, other than the fact that it was extra tasty/juicy. My only gripe is that it was on the smaller side and I was in a face-stuffing mood. But you know what? It's probably better than Rado saved me from myself and my appetite of 7 men. Bonus points for a nice, large parking lot. We didn't know what to expect for parking because Google Street view wasn't updated, but parking here should never be an issue. read more

Rado Market - Oxtail Smash Burger - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've seen Rado Market pop up on some "best burger" lists in Houston, so with the day off for the 4th, I figured it was the perfect time to check it out--especially since it's just down the street. I love supporting places rooted in the community, and Rado, located right across from Emancipation Park, fully embraces that mission. The space is beautiful--bright, clean, and welcoming. You can tell a lot of care went into designing a place that feels good to be in, not just another restaurant. There's a small grocery section with locally made products, a café counter, books, wine... it really feels like a love letter to Third Ward. I came for the burger, and it did not disappoint. A burger from the team behind Lucille's? You already know it's going to be good. The oxtail smash burger might be one of the best I've had in Houston. The patty was rich and flavorful (you can actually taste the oxtail), and the tomato jam and garlic aioli gave it a perfect sweet-savory balance. The brioche bun was soft but sturdy--every element felt intentional. It's clearly a chef-driven burger. They were closing early at 2 for the holiday, so I grabbed my food to go and headed across the street to Emancipation Park. I found a table by the pool, where families were out enjoying the day--kids splashing in the water, everyone trying to beat the heat. It was the perfect setting to enjoy a great burger. Rado Market isn't just a spot for good food (though it absolutely delivers on that front). It's part of something bigger--celebrating history, investing in the neighborhood, and feeding the community in every sense of the word. I'll definitely be back to try more from the menu... and maybe grab a bottle of wine or some local goodies while I'm at it. read more

I have never been to Rado Market so was excited to try brunch with some girls. There was a nice little parking spot, so parking isn't an issue. It's a order at the counter, sit down restaurant. I ordered a Spicy Turkey Melt and French Fries. The sandwich was good, but the fries were even better! Really enjoyed the cute little space and service. Definitely would go back to try their burgers! read more

Great brunch/lunch spot. I frequent the bookstore in the same shopping center and have been curious to try out Rado but am always short on time unfortunately. I went for an event and had the opportunity to grab a bit to eat after. The menu has some great offering but I was really in the mood for some fries and a burger. The fries and burger are fresh to order so the wait time is a bit longer but I'm willing to wait on good food. This is the type of place you order at the counter and get a number. It's a busy local spot but did not have any issues finding a seat. There is an outdoor patio area that has good shady spots and I really enjoyed eating outdoors! The staff was friendly and it was overall a nice solo brunch experience. As for the food I love the fries but was not impressed with the burger I'll definitely have to try some more items on the menu. read more

Hands down, best burger in Houston. I love it here. I love the collards in the salad. I love the smoky oxtail burger so much. I usually take friends and out of towners here to teach them the history of the Eldorado Ballroom, which is my absolute favorite place in Houston, TX and explain the history of it and Emancipation park. The food is just a great show stopper to top it all off. You can't go wrong with this restaurant group. They own Lucille's as well Late August, but this place and this burger- must try baby. read more

I came here for a Yelp event initially and returned because Kindred Stories moved next door in the El Dorado Ballroom. I had their Toast Crunch latte and it was SO DELICIOUS. The barista was super kind and came to find me and hand me the coffee once it was done. The place feels very historial and kinda has a diner aesthetic. It's attached to the el dorado ballroom and it's super spacious. There's plenty of seating and space; lots of decor and photos and I really appreciate that Kindred Stories highlighted some of their books in the market itself. I really love this place and I'll be back soon. 10/10 recommend for the food and the coffees. read more

Recently, after visiting Kindred Bookstore, I decided to finally check out The Rado Market -- both housed in the historic Eldorado Ballroom. There are numerous restaurants I enjoy in Third Ward, but The Rado Market is unique and has a diner/café feel. The lady who helped at the counter was very friendly and professional, even making solid suggestions. We ordered around 30 minutes within closing time, but were still accommodated. That's cool! I tried the Oxtail Smash Burger with a side of potato salad. The burger was great. Having asked someone beforehand if it had more of a Jamaican jerk essence, I was advised it did not have this flavor but was still good. I thought the flavor of the burger was great, and it might have had arugula on it, if I remember correctly. Wasn't a fan of the potato salad but did get to try some fries and those were awesome (the tiny bit of catfish po boy I tried was excellent). I thought the lemonade was really good. Several different parties dined in the restaurant, but since it was near closing time, we dined outside. Great experience overall. 5/5 read more

Rado Market had been on my list for a minute, so I was super excited when I got the opportunity to try it out. Located around the EADO area with a lovely parking lot for your convenience! We were greeted by the nicest staff when we entered and placed our order at the counter. We tried the burger and chicken sandwich. The quality was great but both were surprisingly lacking flavor. The fries were quite delicious though. After seeing the other great reviews I may be back to give it a second try at some point but for now it fell a little below my expectations. read more

I love this place! We had a late lunch on Saturday. A few lively patrons were there. Our food was delivered quickly. And most importantly the food was delicious! We split the grain bowl with chicken and the fried green tomato sandwich. They were both amazing. I forgot how much space is in the back and the patio area. It is a great place to study or work as well. I love that they have books from the next-door bookstore. Highly recommend! read more

I had the T'B.A.E sandwich & a side of grits. The sandwich isn't nasty -- it has lots of potential but I ordered via door dash which may have affected the quality of my experience. The sandwich is dry and a tad bit salty. There were no condiments included nor offered as an add on option which would've taken the sandwich to a 10 easily. I see the potential, but these minor changes could make it better. I'd eat here again but in person this time, for the full experience. read more

I'm not coming back here. We waited 45 minutes & paid $60 for a "turkey melt" , grits & 4 eggs. The turkey melt barely had any turkey or cheese on it, the bread wasn't as advertised, and nothing about it felt like a real turkey melt... just ridiculous. read more

Rado Market - "Turkey Melt" - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

Outside of being a bit too salty on the sandwich and a slight pool of oil at the bottom of the mac & cheese everything was quite tasty and filling. Spicy Turkey sandwich is what I ordered. Love the toast in the bread and some chips added to the inside for a little extra crunch. The sandwich came with 2 sides which I ended up splitting into 2 meals. The fries were perfectly flavored and crispy on the outside soft on the inside, just how I like them. Great addition to this neighborhood. Tone back on the salt, as I have seen in other reviews as well, and this could be a 5 star review for me. Customer service was excellent. read more

You already know what I'm starting with. Parking. No problems here. Huge spacious lots with many options and ample sized parking spaces. We love the Rado Market and have been coming here since after the Yelp event a few months ago. Food is on par and reasonably priced with great flavor. The market is super cute with a lot of choices too. We especially loved the outdoor area and the upper deck patio. It was a bit warm even at 9am so we opted to sit in the downstairs patio. Staff was really nice and they were nice to my child, something you don't get a lot of here in the United States. We ate our food completely up. Wish they had offered some butter for the grits but overall a tasty meal. We both got chicken sausage and you could tell this sausage was house made. Can't wait to go back and try other items and the drinks. read more

Rado Market - The Standard Biscuits & Gravy - Salad Near Me - Houston, Texas

Review is a little overdue, I went to Rado Market for the first time in September courtesy of my lovely colleagues. I'd been in before to look/tour but this was my first time eating. We dined in. I ordered the catfish Poboy with mac & cheese and sautéed greens. Both the catfish and the sautéed greens were so salty. The mac was really good, I was able to get through the greens by eating them with the mac. Thankfully I could, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to finish them. So imagine salty food with no flavor. Those that I dined with ordered the following: -Southern Classic with buttermilk fried chicken, white rice, sautéed greens, black eyed peas, cornbread muffin -Blackened Catfish with mac + cheese, sautéed greens Both shared that their food was salty as well and that the chicken was overcooked. Two of us ordered the house lemonade, I added lavender as a flavor. The lemonade was incredibly sweet! No for me. I'd definitely return to Rado Market but I'd order something completely different. The service was good, and the space is spacious. I imagine people pop in to eat, drink, and/or get work done. read more

What a wonderful peaceful experience. I have found a new favorite spot to chill, work, support local vendors in an amazing atmosphere. I stopped in after church to grab a bite to eat with family. I opted for a pumpkin spice latte made with almond milk. Let me tell you! It was perfection!!! Service was unmatched! I was promptly greeted and assisted, and also received an educational tour about the local vendors, and their history. So informative. For those with mobility challenges, ramp is available on the front, and an accessible entry is on the back. Seating inside was comfortable as plush chairs were available, along with cushioned chairs. Very nice ambiance with great music. Upstairs is an event space that offers donation jazz, on Sundays. Not sure about other days. Can't wait to try more good and desserts . I will be stopping in more to get a mental break. read more

Our trip was 4 days, we dined here two days in a row. First day was so delicious, perfectly seasoned, but second day was overly salted:( Friendly cashier and food came out relatively fast, my fav is their kale(sautéed greens), my friend loved the fries, and the mac and cheese was creamy. Jerk chicken salad sandwich was tasty and refreshing, the blackened chicken burger had me reminiscing, and the shrimp etouffee was just ok bc I'm picky on eating parsley and the taste was too strong. The fried chicken was wayy too salty I was really bummed I could not finish it. There is indoor dining w cute bookshelf moments, and outdoor dining w umbrellas. Bathroom is spacious and stalls, clean and bright. read more

I was randomly on Eventbrite looking for something to do as part of my #TrySomethingNewThursday and came across The Rado Wine Club's February event. The wine club was highlighting Black owned wines in honor of BHM so I was all for it. This was the only exception I was making to my no drinking rule. The tickets were $25 and we got a whole lot for that price. We were educated on different reds and whites by an amazing sommelier who works for the Market. We had 6 wines to taste, along with food from the market that was nicely paired with the wine. I couldn't eat most of the food but boy did it look good. We were given so much good information about the wine owners and we had a booklet where could take notes about the wines. I enjoyed this experience thoroughly and plan on coming back to the Rado Market during lunch to check out their full menu. Also, there's plenty of parking. read more

I was happy to find out this place is the same chef as Lucille. The place looks average with very limited tables m. Food on the other hand wasn't too good. Everything was so salty. Even the salad was way too salty, I was wondering why. We ordered from fried green tomato (which wasn't as salty) but the burger and fried chicken sandwich were too salty. Service was nice and staffs are friendly. Definitely can't compare this place to Lucille. Lucille is way better. Personally I was disappointed read more

We ordered a to go salad and two coffees. The salad was HORRIBLE. The avocado and lettuce smelled and looked old. It was an overpriced expired salad ($12, no protein). The coffee was not too bad but also over priced. You're better off driving a few streets down to the next coffee shop. This is by far the worst place in third ward. read more

The Rado Market is definitely a place worth visiting. The food is tasty and well-presented. I had the oxtail burger with fries and potato salad. The patty was gamier than I'm used to, but it worked great. The bun was tasty and held up well to the juices. The fries were perfect. Fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The potato salad was solid but I'd get something else next time. The place itself is amazing. The walls are lined with art and products on consignment from local producers. There's a wine room with uniquely curated selections. There's an art gallery down the hallway with local artists poems mixed in with more famous artists works. read more

Absolutely delicious. I want to come back for dessert and drinks. read more

Rado Market is an adorable neighborhood gem. I visited for lunch on a Sunday, and there was plenty of seating available. The staff were very helpful and set up a couple tables for our group & brought carafes of cucumber water out to the table. I ordered the Grilled Cheese & Gumbo, and my husband had the Oxtail Smash Burger - both were delicious. We were very impressed to find that the wine and beer prices are extremely affordable - like grocery store price! They do sell some local products, like hot sauce, candles, cook books, and wine. They are primarily a restaurant, though, because the shopping portion is not very big. Overall, Rado market is a great fast-casual spot for lunch, since they do not have dinner service. I'd love to come back to try the breakfast! read more

We had a perfectly fine breakfast at Rado Market. While I wanted to order the fried chicken hot roll, they were apparently out of chicken that morning, so I opted for the potato and egg breakfast tacos. While the potato and egg filling were good, I was surprised at how dry the flour tortillas were--they seemed more like corn tortillas. I took a bite of my friend's sausage hot roll and thought it was good--the roll bread was particularly tasty, a little sweet, so too bad they were out of the fried chicken hot roll that week. The service was nice but slow--we had to wait a while (maybe 20 minutes) for our food, and I even saw our food sitting at the counter a few minutes to be brought out, so perhaps they were short staffed. But they were very friendly, so that's nice. The restaurant is pretty and is also a store (hence the name market), with fun items like cookbooks from local vendors. read more
