    This might be my favorite Korean spot in HTX! My friends and I wanted a nice hearty meal late at night and thankfully Tree Garden is open until midnight so we decided to give this spot a try. There was plenty of parking and we were surprised to be the only ones to be in the restaurant on a Friday night. We ordered the following: Seafood Pancake Perfectly crispy with a good amount of seafood. I've been to numerous Korean places in HTX and wasn't too impressed with this specific dish but Tree Garden does it well! Marinated Beef Short Ribs w/buckwheat noodles I love that this restaurant offers this combo and I'd highly recommend this if you're craving both noodles and some protein! The noodles were so satisfying and they have slices of asian pear in it that adds a nice juicy, refreshing touch to the dish. The beef ribs were tender, savory, and full of flavor. Seafood Pure Tofu Hot Pot This was the star of the show in my opinion. My group had 4 people including me and we each got a large bowl. The broth was so delicious and with the silken tofu and seafood, this was our favorite dish of the night. Aside from the dishes we ordered, the banchan was fresh and delicious! Our favorite was the green beans which were savory and had a little bit of a kick to it. The ajuhmas working here were very friendly and did an amazing job at serving- we really appreciate how they served our bowls of soup and took care of the leftovers in to-go boxes. And at the very end of the meal, they serve Sikhye. Looking forward to coming back and trying everything else!

    I think I figured out why this restaurant is called Tree Garden. There is a forest around the corner alongside Oak Tree Drive on Long Point Road. The reason I came here was because Super Hmart was closed at 9:30 on Sunday. I pulled up my phone and searched the nearest Korean restaurant that was still open. The direction was clear but I had a hard time locating it. The parking lot is well lit but the sign was not obvious. I managed to find parking at the designated spot. As I walked in, I felt a little claustrophobic because of the tall cubicle walls. They were painted black. Although they provide privacy from the booth over. A friendly lady seated me by the entrance. She must know that I was hungry. We chatted for a bit as I learned it's been open for about 9 years. She frequently checked on me after my dish arrived. I ordered BEEF SMALL INTESTINE NAPA SOUP. The menu said it has tripe but I couldn't find it. This dish has a V symbol, which means it can be a vegetarian dish. Since the pork beef intestines were hard to chew, I made it vegetarian for myself. The banchan had smaller portions. I like them because they were delightful. Kimchi was flavorful. I asked for another bowl of rice ($2.00). Overall, I enjoyed my dinner here. I think I was the last customer at the time. I think I'll be back to try other dishes with V symbols.

    tofu soup
    Darian C.

    I thought the tofu soup was good but super spicy. Bbq pork was good and seasoned well. I didn't think the banchan was that good though. The inside is separated into little booths which I didn't like as much but it allows for some privacy. The service wasn't that fast and they didn't really check on us that much which I don't really mind usually but I needed water for a while before they came.

    Seafood Pancake
    Bryan V.

    Seafood pancake here was balanced with a good amount of vegetables and seafood. It was the right amount of crispiness as well. The accompanying sauce was tangy and sweet. As for the seafood + soft tofu hot pot, it was quite a generous portion. I've never seen so much tofu in one pot before! Good variety of seafood as well such as octopus, clams, mussels etc. I feel that the hot pot broth was just a bit bland. It could've used either more garlic, soy sauce, or fish sauce even. Initially I enjoyed it but as I kept tasting the soup I realized I was mainly just getting red pepper powder water flavor. I recommend ordering ramen noodles to add to the hot pot. Side dishes here were nothing to write home about. I appreciated having a call button though!

    HOUSTON, TX 77055 / KOREAN / 07-25-24 / DINNER +Customer service was good, our waitress checked on us 3-4 times throughout our meal. +The banchan side dishes were superb. +All of the entrees were delicious. +The secluded tables are a nice setup, as you can better converse and a little more quiet than other Korean restaurants. +They provide refreshingly cold, roasted barley water. +At the end of the meal, they provide a fermented rice punch drink. -The portion sizes were a bit on the small side.

    Since I was craving for tofu soup, I went there again last night and I can proudly say that this restaurant offers the best vegetarian tofu soup! :) They service is great and generous with the portion of foods! Amazing thing about Koran restaurant is that they give you a lot of delicious side dishes as a part of their service! I enjoy their amazing service a lot! You also get a nice privacy in the restaurant as they have walls around by tables. Very considerate! I'll keep coming here! :) If you have vegetarian friends, bring them here I'm sure they love it! :) Cheers

    Would give 10 stars if I could! This place has definitely made my top one Korean restaurant in Houston and I can't believe it took me this long to try it out. You are seated within cubicles which gives nice privacy and the staff were the sweetest people and made this an even more enjoyable dining experience. We ordered seafood pancake which was crispy and came with the garlic sweet sauce with a perfect seafood to batter ratio. We also ordered a beef and octopus hot pot which was the star of the show with large variety of vegetables and slices of beef and chewy octopus which the staff helped us cook, cut and serve to us. The broth was so flavorful that was spicy with a sweet undertone that made it so addicting. I also ordered a Korean ramen with egg which is such a comfort food and the broth was so spicy and flavorful. The side dishes are always such a great addition with their kimchi really giving a tangy kick to the rest of the meal. If you are looking for authentic Korean food with great service, please try this place out! Will for sure be a regular and would love to try out the rest of the menu in the future!

    Always enjoyed this place for its authentic Korean options. Love the traditional private rooms/booths, not too crowded parking options. Good service overall but can get busy. The serving size can be generous but also pricey for KBBQ. I've enjoyed their short rib and decided to try the squid this time, the kimchee pancake is a hit, and the seafood noodle soup Jjamppong was very flavorful. I like how you can customize your spice levels on most every dish, and the menu is fairly descriptive. The small sides options are always good and may include Kimchi, sprouts, potatoes, pickled radish, fish cake, egg, etc. Overall, love the Koreatown area overall and this is one of the higher recommended places especially since they open late.

    Jap chae
    Jackie C.

    Very non-descript on the outside in a run-down looking strip mall but definitely a diamond in the rough. The interior is very cute and traditional looking with private rooms and cute booths. Servers are very courteous and they have a call button at every table which is very convenient, and also necessary with the way the restaurant is set up. The food here is delicious. We love the japchae, dumplings, dukbokki, seafood pancake, oyster pancake, tofu soups, and the army stew. Everything is flavorful and amazing. However, the side dishes are only ok and their barley tea lacks flavor. But for the most part, their food is great and we will definitely we back.

    Nina T.

    One of the best Korean restaurants that I've been to! They have authentic Korean food and private dining areas/booths. The food is amazing and the service is good as well. We ordered Jjajangmyeon (not the best, I expected a stronger/more flavorful black bean taste), LA Galbi (recommended), stir-fried kimchi and pork belly, and seafood tofu soup. There were not many side dishes but they're ALL SO GOOD so we asked for a refill. Definitely coming back to try other dishes.

    Pork belly and banchan fixings
    Gin Y.

    Let me preface this by saying that this spot gets 5 stars for their cubicle style seating. It's nice to have a little bubble for just our group to dine in. There's even a call button if we needed anything from our waitress. Otherwise, the food was a hit or miss. Plus, it was really expensive for the amount they gave us. Here's a breakdown of what we ordered: Pork belly (4/5): It was pretty good. But, I think this was standard pork belly compared to other Korean restaurants. Banchan (3/5): I've definitely had better and more flavorful banchan. I was hoping for Korean potato salad banchan. None here. Seafood pancake (3/5): It was kind of bland. I've definitely had better. Even the sauce that came with it was just alright Japchae (4/5): It was delicious and flavorful. But, I couldn't give it 5 stars because they gave us so little of it for the price. Seaweed roll (4/5): I loved this. So umami with the seaweed outside and sesame flavored glass noodles. I didn't give a full 5 stars because of price and amount. Fried rice with fried egg on top (4/5): Delicious. Flavorful. Umami. Wished they'd given us more because I enjoyed eating this. Overall, it's hard to say that we'd come back again. It was expensive to eat here, and not feel gypped with the portion sizes we received.

    Located in the Koreatown area, this place was recommended to me by a friend, and I'm glad I took his recommendation! The big allure of this establishment is the seating. You get your own sectioned off cubicle to eat in. There's also a bell to summon a waitress. I have visited twice now--once for kbbq and once for a hot soup. The menu is pretty varied and offers group meals as well. Definitely go for the short rib if you want the ultimate kbbq experience. The pork belly was good, but the short rib was phenomenal... super delicious and tender. My sundubu was tasty, and the broth was tasty. I wish there was a bit more seafood included. The chive pancake was nice, though I prefer thinner. Definitely keeping this in my rotation!

    I came from out of town with a list of places to eat all the way from Houston to Galveston, and…read morethis was an "afterthought" quick breakfast spot before I headed to Houston Space Center. This was the best meal I had my entire weekend! The place had ample parking. There was a solid staff cleaning, and the place was spotless. The front desk staff was helpful and patient with newbies, recommending menu items and accompaniments from the bar nearby. I had the chorizo breakfast taco and the pulled pork hash taco - I was delighted to find out that "hash" meant a delicious hash brown inside the taco. The egg was creamy and perfect inside a taco, the cheese was good, the meat was amazing. I don't think it's possible for me to be happier with roughly $9 in breakfast food. I will make it a point, even if it's not on my way, to visit Pit Room every time I'm in the Houston area going forward. It is a destination restaurant, in my opinion!

My wife and I had had a great experience at the Pit Room previously, so brought the rest of my family here to experience. I found the food to continue to be really good, especially the fatty brisket. Stopped by around 11 am, and there was still parking in the dedicated surface lot next to the building. The smell of bbq wasn't as prevalent as last time. Once walking in, you stand in line to first order your meat...which is immediately sliced in front of you. You then move further along to ask for your sides, including as many slices of plain white bread as you want. My daughter treated us this time, so didn't record prices, but thought it was reasonable. I liked the sliced brisket a lot, along with the side of elote corn and mac n cheese. The free toppings bar had the various pickled vegetables that really cut through the fattiness of the meat. Drinks were all self serve, with a water station and soda fountain. Probably ordered a bit less than expected for 4 people, but was happy that there were no left overs, and left not completely stuffed, since we had a long day ahead of us. By the time we left a little after noon, there was both a wait for tables and parking. We had come at the right time.

We came a little earlier and there was already a long line. I heard that if you order in advance, you can skip the line. While you wait, the employees walk around and you can order a drink. Which is nice if you're waiting a while and it gets hot. The employees were all very nice and ambiance is how you would expect a regular bbq restaurant to be. There are plenty of seating outside but limited inside. The seats are all first come first serve, so usually the inside seating runs out first. We ordered 1/2lb ribs, 1/2lb brisket, 1/2lb sausages, and some sides like Mac&cheese, beans, loaded potato, cobbler, etc. total was about $120 after tip. The food was very delicious and worth the drive. Although, I will say that it doesn't taste that much different from my other favorite bbq restaurants. I was still a great experience and very delicious. I highly recommend to try if you're in the area.

I've tried those deemed "the best," including Salt Lick in Driftwood and Killen's. So how did CorkScrew measure up? In addition to the beef rib, we tried the moist brisket, pulled pork, and sausage. We also tried several sides, including those recommended in the Michelin review: potato salad, mac and cheese, smokey beans, and coleslaw, and I picked up a peach cobbler, as well. The beef rib: STELLAR. This was outstanding with its flavorful bark and an impossibly tender texture that truly melts in your mouth, unlike any other beef rib I've ever had. Easily the very best beef rib, without a doubt. The brisket was delicious, as well: tender and flavorful. The sausage was nothing special... on par with sausage elsewhere, as was the pork. As for the sides, I've never been a fan of beans, but since the Michelin review specifically mentioned them, I gave them a try. I'm a fan! I would definitely order these again. Their smokiness is gently tamed by a touch of sweetness. The rest? Very average. The mac and cheese tasted like the stuff I had in my elementary school cafeteria - very un-special. The potato salad was salty and was missing any semblance of potato chunks. The texture was oddly like lumpy mashed potatoes. But the other surprise for me: the cobbler. This was simply and divinely perfect with crisp, sweet buttery crumble. A wonderful way to end a hearty meal. I'm so glad I ordered our food online for pickup. When I arrived at 1pm, the line was wrapped around the building. Pickup was very easy: I texted them when I arrived, and they replied when they were ready for me to go in and retrieve it. But even if there wasn't a line, I would never eat there: the restaurant is too divey for me: very rustic, picnic-like feel both inside and out, and it was uncomfortably warm and humid (again, inside and out.) The staff was very friendly and cheerful. Glad i tried it, and when i get a hankering for a good beef rib, this is definitely where I'll be getting it!

They did it perfect! The jalapeño sausage was a little dryer that I like it to be especially for having cheese in there. Still ate it and it was great.! So good I forgot to take a picture We'll definitely be going back to this place!

    Came here on our last day here in Houston and I must say it was one of the best BBQ spot I have…read moreever tried here. We ordered sliced brisket with mac n cheese, coleslaw, chopped brisket sandwich, and a pecan pie. The sliced brisket was so juicy and tender with so much charred flavor. The meat was cooked to perfection and got me wanting more! The mac and cheese wasn't too overwhelming and actually complemented the meat. As for the brisket sandwich, I thought it was good in terms of the meat, however, I must say it reminded me of sloppy joes too much. If I had to choose, I prefer getting the brisket sliced over chopped. As for the coleslaw, it was fresh and not too overwhelming with the mayo, which I love. The ratio of cabbages and carrots were evenly distributed. Lastly, the pecan pie was not too sweet and really soft yet crunchy. Overall, I would love to come here again, it was honestly one of the best!

    Excellent Texan bbq. We stopped by for lunch after our cruise. Two parking lots one to the side and…read moreone in the back.

    I came in to Killen's Barbecue about three days ago with my partner. The restaurant itself was very…read moreclean and organized and despite the line, service was fast, efficient, and friendly. My partner had the brisket sandwich with potato salad and a small helping of pickles and pickled red onions and I had the pulled pork tacos. My partner said the brisket sandwich was okay, but we both agreed that the potato salad was fantastic! The potato salad was way better than the one at Pappas Barbecue. The taste of the pulled pork tacos was great, but it was honestly too wet and made the flour tortillas too soggy and there was way too much coleslaw on top. I feel like if Killen's is going to serve pulled pork tacos there needs to be three things done. 1. Serve the tacos with an option of corn tortillas because I feel corn tortillas would've worked better to give a great contrast/pairing with the sweetness of the pulled pork and sauce. 2. Serve the corn/flour tortillas on the side so that they don't get soggy and wet. 3. There are some things that just don't belong on a taco of any kind and that's coleslaw. My partner and I also tasted the banana pudding and to say it was divine is an understatement. What I really like about this pudding was that you could taste real bananas in this pudding and it had been mixed well all together. Our total was $80 after tipping, which is a little pricey for some of the items, but honestly I would definitely come back to Killen's Barbecue when I was in the mood for barbecue.

    They have such good brisket!! I often come here for my nacho…read moreMeat!!! Although it says by the pound and 1/4 pound...if you want one piece of brisket or chicken they will accommodate you. Don't follow the menu!!! You can order any amount that you want. The ambiance is spacious...,they have a bar area and plenty of seating so you do not feel overcrowded. Parking is ample and no issue at this location. They do not sell Nachos, I just buy the meat for my homemade Nachos. lol.

    Tried the brisket egg rolls to start -- they were okay, but lacked flavor. For the main meal, I…read moreordered the two meats with two sides: brisket, jalapeño sausage, cornbread, and potato salad. The brisket itself was good, but next time I'd definitely request lean meat. The jalapeño sausage was the standout for me -- really flavorful and highly recommended. The cornbread and potato salad were both solid sides and complemented the meal well. The biggest downside was the BBQ sauce selection. The sauces leaned way too sweet for my taste. I tried the coffee bourbon sauce and personally did not like it at all. Overall, some really good food items, but the sauces were a miss for me.
