    Pork Dumplings

    Great food, great flavor! Service was wonderful and always attentive! Ambiance was very chill vibe with good music to enjoy the atmosphere

    Fried snapper

    I'll start with the parking situation. Not good! We drove around for over 10 minutes without finding a spot. They share a parking lot with 2 other places, and it's an absolute nightmare! We had reservations and were seated in the beautiful patio. It felt like I was somewhere tropical on vacation. They were playing great 90's r&b music. Our server was nice and attentive. I ordered a toasted coconut cocktail, I didn't like it at all. It wasn't sweet or tropical tasting. Not sure what was wrong with it, but I did not care for it at all! We ordered the coconut shrimp and the fried eggplant . Both were delicious. The coconut shrimp tasted more Cajun than coconut. We ordered the whole fried snapper and the cheeseburger. The fish was so crispy and tender with great flavor. The cheeseburger was top 3 best I've ever had! The patties were juicy and the cheese and bun just melted in my mouth. Incredible! We polished off our meal with a chocolate pie. I didn't love it. It had too much salt for my sweet tooth Overall great place

    Crispy Chicken sandwich
    Claudia F.

    Service was good, super cute spot. I'm glad we made reservations because the place was very packed on a Friday night at 8pm. The patio was very spacious and super cute! The food came out super fast and everything was super good. Parking is very limited.

    Coconut shrimp

    Came here to catch up with my boys on a Friday night. We didn't have a reservation, but we were still able to be seated immediately. The restaurant has a laid back casual island vibe which is a pretty cool theme. The waiters were attentive and nice. I'm a big fan of coconut shrimp so I decided to get that for the table. The shrimp was cooked well with the fried coconut , but I was not a fan that they keep the whole shrimp with the tails on. It was noted in the description in the menu, but I didn't catch that, or else I would have passed on ordering it. For my entree I went with the crispy chicken sandwich which was good, but also more than I bargained for with its large size, not to mention I added there bacon to it which are thick cuts. I would probably order their "world famous" cheeseburger next time, as my friends raved about it. Another thing to rave about are their drinks, island themed as well. I had the painkilla and it was fire. I definitely plan to come back, at least for a nice causal spot for drinks if nothing else, but hopefully I will have a better experience with their food by choosing better options. Also, please know their parking is atrocious, so you will more than likely have to find street parking elsewhere and walk, unless you wait for a spot to open up like I did.

    OG Fried Chicken
    Chloe L.

    Great vibe inside and outside! Would recommend coming at nighttime for ambiance. Super hospitable service, loved our waiter! Cocktails are very nice snd have a unique, tropical twist. My Caribbean friend said it reminds her of home!! Will say all the food items are tasty but very, very greasy. We tried: - Toasted coconut cocktail: highly recommend!! - Bloody mary: good for savory drinkers - OG fried chicken: good flavor and well cooked but very oily - Lamb flatbread: good seasoning, tasted fried

    Cocktail menu

    We came here with a reservation during happy hour to celebrate a birthday, and I was disappointed in the experience. The drinks were good, and the food was fine, but our overall experience left something to be desired, especially with the service. The online reservation form asked if we were celebrating an occasion, so I chose birthday. I don't really understand why they would ask this on the form if they weren't going to do anything special for it. Their happy hour menu is very limited, with just a few basic drinks and one appetizer that we initially thought was an inventive cocktail with seafood in it. Their only specialty cocktail on the happy hour menu is the Toasted Coconut, so I got that one. It was a tasty rum drink and strong. They also have $3 "fun shots," and the shot that day was green tea shots. We got a couple of rounds of these. They weren't very good compared to other ones we've had, but they were fine. Their food menu has a lot of options, but nothing seemed particularly attractive. There's Asian and Mexican-inspired food, so it seems to be some sort of mixed American fusion. For appetizers, we got the toco fried rice with kimchi and spiced fries. The kimchi fried rice tasted pretty standard. We liked the Asian kick to the fries with chili aioli. I got the forbidden sub for my main, which is an Indian-inspired sub with chicken meatballs, butter curry, and cheese. It was good, but there was something about the sauce that tasted off to me. It was also so messy and difficult to eat without making a mess. I tried my friend's cheeseburger with "thicc bacon," and the bacon was like pork belly. It was also falling apart. It was alright but too pricey in my opinion for a burger that wasn't particularly special. I ended up asking what they do for birthdays as they didn't address it from the reservation, and they said we could choose from a few desserts. They brought out a small tres leches cake and burned a crouton on top. It was good, but they charged for it, and I erroneously thought that it would be complimentary based on what the server said. The patio filled up around 6pm, and they told us to take our time to leave, but they took away our water jug, and we were trying to sober up to drive. I didn't read about a time limit on the reservations, so this felt off putting. Our server also told us we couldn't split the check by item when we asked, but he was holding the machine in his hand that should normally have that function. We ended up spending around $225 for four people, and that was with only one cocktail each.

    Marinated Cucumbers
    Kayla N.

    I've been to toasted coconut a few times now and will give them credit.. their food is always good. Each time I've gone, I've had the marinated cucumbers, the fried rice and the pork dumplings and cannot get enough - they're amazing! We've also tried a few different drinks / cocktails here but they always seem to be out of a few things to where I usually end up settling on something I wasn't as excited about. Outside of the food and drink, the staff is friendly and does a good job generally! I also like the ambiance and the Hawaiian vibe - it's fun! The prices (especially for drinks) seem a bit on the high side but all in all, the experience is worth it. A fun place that I'll definitely come back to!

    Pork dumplings
    Tiffany H.

    Looked nice even before entering The Toasted Coconut. Now was it worth the 30+ minute wait on a weeknight? Nope. Parking was tight, so we had to go two blocks down for street parking. Passed on ordering from their cocktail menu. Did get to try friends' drinks (ube home xmas & maiz de seaaon) and they were ok; a bit sweet though. Disappointed with the size portion for the price. Tasty but crispy chicken sandwich was so small. Aside from being crispy, there was nothing special about the spiced fries. Pork dumplings (5pc?) were alright. Waitress was super sweet throughout the dining experience! Vibes were great (cool weather) until the outdoor heater got turned on towards the end lol. Maybe worth checking out once if you have a reservation, but I probably wouldn't go out my way to come back here.

    Cheeseburger
    Jennifer V.

    Pretty good food, cute decor, and great service! Ambiance/Decor: Inside is a bit loud with a lot of seating, few booths. Wasn't very Tiki style. Outdoor seating is perfect during the winter and they had a little sand area to eat at. Food: Burger: $15, 4.5/5, basic solid burger Fries: $11, 4/5, pretty pricey for fries but they were solid crinkle cut fries & I liked the sauce that came with it Mussels: $21, 3/5 - good portion for the price, wasn't a fan of the flavor profile but respected them for going outside of the box. Parking: Free, small lot, nearby street parking Service: Brett was great. Checked up on us a decent amount & very friendly!

    Patio
    Pedro Z.

    Really cool place that makes you feel at the beach while staying in the heart of the city. They have a nicely decorated patio completed with a palm tree roof and hanging lights like you're by the beach and a cool interior space, both with ample seating. The staff is super friendly, constantly checking on you, very relaxed vive, and knowledgeable about the menu. They give great recommendations and can accommodate for dietary restrictions. The food is super tasty. It is a nice twist on traditional American food with a little bit of an Asian flare. And the drinks are not to be missed! Wide variety of cocktails and beers. Would recommend for a different than usual meal in the city!

    Spicy fries
    Jess F.

    Toasted Coconut is always an incredible vibe, their rotating menu makes it so fun to come back again and again and the servers are very friendly! The interior is also super unique, and the new hidden speakeasy in the back is also exciting. Spicy fries - the sichuan chili topping makes these fries unique and yummy! The sauce is maybe a 4/5, doesn't add that much to the fries imo. A good snacky app, but taste-wise isn't super special. Chicken bites - huge, tender chicken chunks with chili oil; these are really good! Only about 5 pieces with the order but good for sharing. Have ordered it many times and will continue to do so! Kimchi fried rice - ordered this app as my entree since I wasn't too hungry, but it was super filling! The fried rice is moist and flavorful, and the kimchi is a perfect tart crunch on top. Loved this! Lamb dumplings - my friend ordered this, reportedly really good! Not too gamey, which is hard with lamb. They used to have a carbonara pasta, which was my favorite entree ever - however, this is now gone. I still think about her. Bring it back!! Eggplant appetizer - not super flavorful, crunchy coating texture was satisfying but definitely doesn't stand out and would not reorder. OG chicken - huge portion, juicy chicken and great flavor with tasty fried skin. Loved this! Would recommend sharing as it's a LOT of chicken. Tres leches (rotating flavors): seems like they always have a different tres leches flavor which is super fun! I've had pandan and peach, but nobody I know has ever had a bad one. Happy hour "fun shot" for $3 was a mystery passionfruit shot, which was actually super tasty! The last star missing for Toasted Coconut is because several of their items are missing that "wow" factor that make me excited about eating the food and would make me reorder. Also, this last time I visited one of my friends had to wait 40 minutes for a burger, while the rest of us got our food quickly - when we asked our server about it, she insisted that my friend had ordered a chicken sandwich, which was then brought out to us. We had to push back to get my friend's burger out, and after all this she was not comped for any of the trouble. But overall, I've had mostly positive experiences here so I'm not letting this one be a dealbreaker for me! Toasted Coconut continues to be a fun, unique option for dining and I'm excited to see what else they bring!

    I was looking for a new bar for drinks before dinner in the upper Kirby area so stumbled upon this place. The parking lot is a situation with such limited space. Not sure where you patk when the limited spots are full. The hostess provided a friendly greeting upon arrival. Server was quite attentive & promptly took our drink order. My party only had drinks so this is a review on that. The drinks were good for my party members who like fruity, frozen drinks that taste good. Surprisingly, the drink also had a little kick. I went off menu & ordered a spicy margarita on the rocks since I don't prefer sweet drinks. It was a solid drink. If you have a strong appreciation for craft or classic cocktails this may not be the spot but I'll admit I didn't ask for one. The have a mix of seating inside. High tops, booths, tables & we sat inside in a corner that had a comfortable loveseat & loungy chair seating. It was too hot for outdoor patio seating but it looked pretty cool & I'd come back for drinks & outdoor seating. I like the casual tiki vibe of the place. I would definitely return, especially if I have friends who I know like these type of fruity tasting drinks.

    Forbidden Sub
    Katrina M.

    The vibes are great here, but the overall experience was a let down. We were seated outside on the patio, and the Christmas lights and mild weather was pleasant, our waitress was nice enough, and the vibes were overall immaculate. But the combination of the cramped parking lot, table wait time, and poorly executed food left me with a poor impression overall. Our group of 4 waited for an hour to get seated on a Thursday night so we were all famished by the time we sat down. Despite my hunger, I still found my food to be really unappetizing. - Forbidden Sub (1/5): I ordered the meatball sub with butter curry chicken meatballs because it sounded amazing, but the sub sandwich bread was SO hard it was almost inedible, the meatball texture was tough, and the sauce didn't have the rich depth of flavor I associate with butter curry. - Kahuna Plate (1/5): Took a few bites off my friend's breakfast plate, which looked better than it tasted. The bacon was thick and sweet, but the hash brown and pancake were very dry. - Maiz De Season (2/5): Seasonal cocktail. Was hoping for something more savory and corn-forward, but this ended up being way too sweet for me even though I have a notorious sweet tooth. - Ube Home for Christmas (4/5): Another seasonal cocktail. Served hot, sort of like a hot white chocolate. The ube flavor was prominent and the drink was overall delicious, but a lot of the alcohol sunk to the bottom which made the drink stronger and more bitter throughout the experience. I'll never regret trying a restaurant once, but I'm disappointed to have had such a negative experience when I've otherwise heard good things about this place. - Ambiance: 5/5 - Food: 1/5 - Service: 3/5

The space was always a nice mix of indoor and outdoor seating, which combined with its dedicated parking lot made this an easy drinking outlet for all kinds of occasions. The intimate indoor space was lovely and well ventilated, and it felt like there wasn't ever a moment where the bar wasn't slammed. The outdoor space was much of the same, with lots of tables and chairs, and even the trendy swing chairs facing the city. The only thing that was a little bit of a liability were those open flame heaters; it would only take on person to accidentally walk into one or trip onto it. For libations, the drinks were well priced, well made, and always potent. I appreciated the aesthetics, as well as the bartenders who made them. The only part that wasn't exciting was the limited food menu, which did its part as munchies for the drink heavy crowd, but was mediocre otherwise.

You are drawn, the way one is drawn to a place that promises honesty with a wink. It wears the posture of a dive but carries itself with intention, a little bohem, a little defiant, and entirely comfortable in its own skin. The bar hums with craft. Cocktails arrive balanced and deliberate, built by hands that understand restraint as much as flair. Nothing shouts. Nothing apologizes. Each glass feels considered, as though the bartender paused just long enough to ask what kind of night you were hoping to have, then answered without speaking. The staff moves easily, quick with wit and generous with attention, treating regulars and first-timers as if both had already earned their place. The decor tells its own quiet rebellion. Mismatched, layered, worn just enough to feel lived in, it carries the sense that stories have been told here and will be told again. And then there are the bathrooms, unisex and unashamed, their walls papered with vintage Playboy centerfolds that celebrate the female form not as spectacle but as art. Tasteful, sexy, unapologetic. A reminder that admiration can exist without crudeness, that beauty does not need permission to be acknowledged. The Two Headed Dog is less a bar than a posture toward the world. It resists neat categories. Not quite dive, not quite cocktail lounge, not quite anything else that could be reduced to a label. It is a place for those who appreciate craft without pretension, sensuality without excess, and atmosphere without artifice. In a city that thrives on reinvention, this bar stands firm, confident enough to be exactly what it is and nothing more.

    It is a very fancy place to get drinks and it has a nice ambience, but the only caveat is that it…read moreis connected to a hotel. I went because this was the only bar open during Labor Day when I had guest visiting. So I would say it's a pretty nice location, considering the fact that it is always consistently open. They had a good menu with different cocktails that were fun and fruity. Otherwise, I did also see people could order coffee at the bar and have different espresso drinks. It looks like the drink that I ordered is also no longer on the menu. The bar prides itself on having a rotating meal changing menu so I think that's a lot of fun when it comes to trying new drinks and new combinations and it truly shows the artistry of the bartender. There was the option of both indoor and outdoor seating. The interior was more of a dimmer, elegant and darker tone. I can see it being pretty classic if you were to go at night time. The bar set up was really beautiful and they had different 2 to 4 seating wooden tables. Overall, the inside would probably only fit around 20 people. I was very sad because we couldn't sit outside. The day before it had rained so every outdoor seating was wet. But I was told that they had a beautiful seating outside with a garden and a pool. Service was good. The bartender came out of the bar to take orders, give menus and give you the check. I will say that it got really busy at the end and it took a while to get our check. There's only one or two bartenders working at one time so if there's multiple people with different drinks that are ordered, it will take a little bit longer. There is both valet parking and also street parking in the neighborhood nearby.

    On a Friday evening, as the last stop of the evening, we walked over to Bar No. 3 for a nightcap…read more Located inside the Colombe d'Or Hotel in Montrose, Bar No. 3 is their hotel bar. Not hard to find, it's located to the right as you walk in. What brought us here is that it's listed as one of the top 50 bars in Houston in Houstonia Magazine. Service (3/5): While we had a waitress, she was slow to greet us and slow to check up on us. It's a small bar and there isn't a ton of seating so it's not like she was overwhelmed. For a fancy hotel, you expect better. Maybe sitting at the bar is better than sitting at some seats as we did. Ambiance (4/5): The Colombe d'Or is a beautiful hotel and Bar No. 3 reflects that. It's an elegant spot to grab a drink, although small. Food (N/A): While there are expensive items on the menu, I had dinner earlier that night so I was on a liquid diet. Drinks (3/5): Bar No. 3 is known for its cocktails so I focused on the cocktail list. The list isn't large but it features a nice selection. Like the food, you're going to pay a premium. I enjoyed my adult beverage but felt like it was a bit overpriced. Hitting up hotel bars isn't a common occurrence in Houston unless you're a traveler. For Bar No. 3 to be the only hotel bar on Houstonia's top 50 is a feat in itself.
