Karla D.

European-style food hall with a variety of chef/inspired options (some Michelin). We ate at Artistry (see review). But the hall has a bar, burger place, chicken place, ramen stand, Korean bbq, tacos, and more. A clean and welcoming space with ample seating. Nice spot for lunch and dinner. Good selection of options.

Tara and Peter are absolutely amazing! I had a great conversation with them. Very personable nice people. I walk in downtown all the time and I've never seen this place. Will brought me in with the marketing mail they sent me. I'm glad they sent me that because I was able to try out proper Berger. The burger was amazing. I like the Christmas tree and all the decorations. They have a multitude of restaurants to try out. Great concept and I'll definitely be back. Once again, it was nice talking with Tara. She's an absolute pro.!

The seven-year itch is real, and this evening marked my long-awaited return to this excellent downtown food court after exactly seven years. Not much has changed here, except for the restaurants that now occupy the space. When I last visited, I tried a Korean eatery called Yong. Sadly, Yong is long gone, but in its place is another fantastic Seoul-inspired spot: Nyam Nyam. I had dinner from them, and I'll be diving into that experience in a separate review! What is constant, though, is that residents, visitors, and downtown office workers still have solid choices for breakfast, lunch, or dinner in the hustling, bustling heart of the H. As I walked around Finn, I made a mental note to drop by again whenever I'm in town for an Astros or Rockets game. It's truly a reliable spot!

Creamy Creamy Gochujang

I was going to check out a restaurant in Finn Hall and saw this quaint little place and decided to give it a try. Finn Hall is a food court heaven with an eclectic blend of cozy restaurants that will satisfy even the pickiest consumer. I tried Fire Breathing Noodz and tried the Creamy Gochujang. Per the restaurant name it was fire, so I had to get water. These restaurants are exactly what name implies a series of uniquely different restaurants, so expect to pay for water, lol. I visited this restaurant on a whim out of curiosity. One of the few times I've seen such a collection of tiny restaurants, such as this has been in airports. This place Finn Hall is in downtown Houston at 712 Main St. I started the conversation with the people in this particular restaurant and asked the question if I could only try one dish what would you suggest and that's what I ate. I have to say it was really good. The pictures below. For me as a consumer, Customer Service and Service Recovery are two things that can make an otherwise on uneventful, dining experience memorable. The two gentlemen, there were friendly and because of my positive interaction with them, I tried the food. And the rest is history as they say. GN3 = Garfield Norris III

Craft Burger: onion rings
Morgan W.

Convenient stop right off the metro rail. Several different places to eat at but on a Saturday around 7 pm a few of them were closed. We settled in craft burger. Service was a little confusing. You order on a machine although staff are handling tasks in the kitchen. For 2 burgers with onion rings and fries. It took about 20 minutes to come. My burger wasn't entirely correct so I returned to ask for what was missing. The onion rings were large and overcooked. The truffle fries were really good. Once my burger was correct, it also was good. It was an average cost burger that I could eat again but the burger is all i'm probably going to order. The french fries are shareable size! Check out Finn Hall. Watch a game. Try one restaurant or try them all.

Chicken with sauce that's similar to teriyaki. It's soo good!!
Amanda L.

This is an awesome food hall with something for just about anyone. We chose the Asian one to the right of the front entrance. It was delicious!! Crispy chicken, delicious fries, and amazing sauce on the chicken. Delicious! We'll definitely be back and try other places inside it too.

Birria Ramen
Kevin T.

This food hall has tasty treats for all different kinds of taste buds. The ramen bowl was very tasty and different. Broth was a little thick but it was delicious. Tacos were delicious. Huge bar with plenty of beer & cocktail options. The entire staff was very friendly and outgoing. Highly recommend this food hall if you are in downtown Houston.

Jessica P.

Great option if you are with people and you all want something different. The hall is decorated nicely and our food was good. Service was relatively quick. My noodle dish was wayyy too spicy for me so I will ask for it not to be next time. The apple egg rolls were great!

Great coffee at Three Keys Coffee
LaMecia M.

I stopped by Finn Hall for lunch and was pleased because it allowed me to support some local diverse-owned businesses. I like the variety of businesses and the fact that they have award-winning businesses that represent the best of Houston (e.g. Three Keys Coffee & Craft Burger). There's a fair amount of seating. I went during the height of lunch hour on a Monday and it wasn't too crowded. Apparently they offer discounted parking. Some vendors close early so check their hours before going.

Truffle Swiss burger from Proper a burger spot.

Awesome place to stop by for a meal and a beer what I'm running through downtown. The burgers from proper a burger spot was awesome and an excellent beer wine selection available.

Onion rings

My first trip here won't be my last! The burger was amazing. I am not crazy about mayo, but I loved the Craft sauce! Our order was prepared quickly and accurately. There was plenty of seating and the volume made for easy conversation!

Birria Ramen
Cassie X.

I've been here a few times and my latest visit, I went to Fire Noods which was actually really good and fairly priced. I got Thai noodle which was only $15. It was super tasty and there were a decent amount of meat (chicken) in there. My friend got the birria ramen which was also surprisingly good. It was not too oily or fatty which was a good surprise. There were a few other stalls that I would want to try including the Maui bento which also looked good.

Finn Hall is conveniently located downtown and offers a moderate array of options of food selections. We were there on a Thursday evening around 6pm so it wasn't too busy and we found free street parking. After a quick lap around the hall, I went with Pecking Order. The owner was really nice and accommodated all the modifications I wanted in my salad. He even suggested I get it with shredded impossible meat and that was the best idea because it was so delicious!!!! Can't wait to go back.

See all

Reviews are mixed. Many highlight the variety of food options and fresh, flavorful dishes, especially the burgers, ramen, and barbecue. The clean, spacious seating and friendly staff also stand out.

What is replacing Mala?

We are actively searching for a new concept that will complement the diverse lineup of food options at Finn Hall. Stay tuned for updates on our social media accounts.

Can you get there from the downtown tunnel system?

Hi Gabe. Yes, you can! We are connected to the Travis Tunnel through the Jones on Main building.… 

How's the parking?

There are several parking garages around the area, but I have not noticed a Finn Hall parking garage. So, with that being said, you won't get it validated at one of the vendors. It's basically the same parking situation as Conservatory.

We love the POST; this place is amazing and kicks ass. It got diverse food options and a great ice…read morecream spot. I love how you don't have to leave this establishment if you want more food. Better than your average mall food court! About the service, I like how the different restaurants text you when your food is ready opposed to just standing there giving you the ability to explore around. All the restaurants staff has been very nice each time I've come. Make sure you make thoroughly sanitize the table that you decide to eat at. I watched the most disgusting thing occur yesterday: a couple changing their baby on the bare table. Nasty! They didn't even wipe the table down then I watched a couple bring food to that same table and eat off of it! Anyways, the ambience is always chill hence people doing whatever they want. I love the industrial look of the place. You can walk around and find different atmosphere of this place. I discovered an area with all greenery; they don't take care of the plants as some have scale (weakness the lifespan of the plant), however very beautiful and calming area

I wish I'd known about this place sooner!…read more Chinese lion dancer here! Several of my teammates and I travelled to Houston to watch the Red, White, and Roar International Lion Dance Championships and it was INCREDIBLE! POST Houston is so hecking cool, boasting several great spots for photo ops, a Market with some absolutely delectable looking food, a rooftop park and garden, and so much more. I could easily imagine several reasons for visiting this venue, big event or none. Despite everything it has going for it, I did note a few drawbacks specific to this competition. The first notable issue was getting to a restroom. Because of the way the performance space was allocated and set up (it essentially blocked off a main atrium in the POST), we had to go outside and re-enter the building in a different location to access the bathrooms. While it was confusing at first and kinda sucked every time we needed to go, it was doable. The second only real complaint I had was with actually viewing the competition. Other than rows of chairs where it was difficult to see around the backs of other people's heads, there were two sections of risers for audience members to sit, though one was partially blocked by the building's pillars. If you weren't on the 'good risers' it was actually easier to see if you stood off to the side of the main stage, which in turn clogged the atrium even more and added to the accessibility issue as mentioned earlier. The emcee even had to periodically ask people to find different viewing points because it became an issue. Naturally this left the stairs behind the main stage to stand on to get a view as good as, if not better than, the Good Risers. The drawbacks here were that you couldn't hear as clearly, and, just like with the Good Risers, if you didn't get there fast enough or weren't waiting in the wings for someone to leave, you were kinda screwed. Truly this place was so cool, and if it wasn't for the spacing issue of the competition I would've given it 5 Stars. Parking wasn't too bad, it was easy to get food, the restrooms were consistently clean for the entirety of the 10 hours I was there, and architecturally it was just awesome. I have almost no doubts that the next time I visit, it'll be a 5 Star experience.

When I started my associates degree I would come here too since Houston Community College is right across the street from it. I am happy to see that this small grocery store is still standing. Although this grocery store is small, it carries a variety of products. It has poke bowls, rice bowls, sushi, and bento boxes for you in case you do not have time to prepare a meal. Nippon Daido also carries a large variety of beverages that are very known in Japan. They also carry different kinds of beer from Japan and sake as well. Everyone is obsessed with matcha right now and I saw they had a different variety of matcha. I myself am a fan of tea. Theu even have different kinds of tea that I hope to try all of them one day. If you are not a fan of tea, I also noticed they had different kinds of coffee. This grocery store also carries a good variety of Japanese candy. We have all seen and heard about the different kinds of KitKat, well, this place carries them. I ended up buying the milk tea KitKat and it a nice delight of a flavor. I noticed that this place carries stuff to do hot pot and barbeque items in the frozen section. Japanese ice cream is carried too like taiyaki vanilla ice cream and red bean ice cream. I myself am a big fan of Kirby and noticed they had a Kirby cup. As much as I wanted to buy it, I had to pass up on it today since I own too many Kirby items. They also carried some Sanrio items but a lot of kitchenware without any design. What I like about this grocery store is the fact they had origami paper and Japanese notebook if you wanted to practice writing in hiragana or katakana. I used to buy those notebooks when I was practicing learning how to write and understand Japanese. In the same section they had very adorable toothpicks to make your own bento box. Something new I saw was that this grocery store has its own little sweet shop called Sweets Oyatsu. I tried the strawberry matcha latte and from I am seeing their famously own strawberry mochi. When I tell you the strawberry mochi is to die for! It has a very sweet flavor coming from the strawberry itself with a hint of sweet red bean. The chewiness of the mochi made the experience even better. The strawberry matcha latte was pretty good. You could really taste the sweetness of the strawberry and the slight bitterness of the matcha. I grew up in Alief my whole life. Nippon Daido is a hidden gem that Alief has in Houston. This small grocery store really brings the Japanese culture closer to home. I always like supporting small local businesses and as much as I do not visit this area anymore. It reminds me to continue to support small businesses. I will try to visit this grocery store more often.
