    Urban Fries
    Philip P.

    I don't know what kind of sorcery they're running in that kitchen, but my food appeared in 4 minutes like it teleported. The chicken tenders were built like NFL linemen, the fries were drowning in mac & cheese like they just got served custody papers, and the waffles were fluffier than a baby alpaca living its best life.

    This place is great!!! Food is delicious and creative. Been here three times now and always great service and great food.

    Urban Fries with mild sauce
    April K.

    I had been looking to come to this restaurant for several months because of its unique menu. I ordered the urban fries seasoned mild. These have a french fry base with white mac and cheese, the urban bird topped with their sauce. To be honest with that blend of ingredients, I didn't expect it to be bland. The service was friendly and the restaurant was extremely clean.

    Update: I went back and they forgot my friends ice cream despite us asking twice. They also gave us incorrect information about what comes with one of the dishes. The ended up giving us a full refund because the ice cream machine was down The food was still really good though!

    Elote Fries
    Jacquelyn C.

    I ordered the Sando and elote fries to go. The Sando was really good--chicken was crispy and the cole slaw was sweet which added flavor and coolness to the hot and spicy chicken. I like that you can customize the heat profile of your chicken, but I do wish the chicken was a patty rather than tenders. The elote fries were alright to me, a bit too cheesy for my taste. Will return for the sando!

    If you're looking for spicy chicken that'll last past the restaurant trend of everything being "hot chicken," this is a place to put on your list. I got the tenders sando at Nashville Hot with sweet potato fries and had a great time. Plenty of seating, the space was generally clean (although our table was sticky when we sat down), and it was a packed night so I understand service can be a bit backed up.

    Sandwich meal

    MEH. Cookshack is Far Superior. Ridiculously unimpressed. Ordered simple Nashville hot chicken tender sandwich combo "for here" 20+ mins later a bag Togo is dropped on my table. Sandwich is cold. Fries were great. Lemonade always solid. But wow. When Cookshack and others exist, I will not return to another Urban Bird. Came after 1 pm. Not a lunch rush. Just not great.

    Mac & cheese fries. SOOO good!
    Mel S.

    If you're looking for a chicken place where everything is good this is a place. The fried Chicken comes in original spicy and then like super spicy hot. All of the flavors are excellent. The waffles are amazing they remind me of Roscoe's Chicken and waffles in Los Angeles California. Can't beat it soft fluffy light everything you want waffle to be. The mac and cheese is amazing smothered over the super seasoned fries oh my God I love my fries seasoned please don't give me playing potatoes. The drinks are delicious they have a mango lemonade, a blueberry lemonade, just some really different flavors and drinks that are amazing. Oh did I mention the shakes the caramel shake is absolutely to die for please do not not order it. So normally I can't finish my food and my drink or dessert but guess what at this place I can. LOL don't miss out support this place support your belly it will support you back LOL it will thank you. LOL

    Refusing to offer water to paying customers while serving spicy food should be a crime. Place was sticky and dirty. Will not be back.

    We visited Wok and Karahi a few months ago and had a good experience…read more The staff was very friendly, I even spoke to the owner on the phone regarding the food briefly. He was very kind. Plenty of parking out front and easy to find. The food is good, the tastes are there.

We wanted to try 1 dish of each specialty, so we ordered of course a Lamb Karahi, this is a very special dish, comes in a hot wok like plate, very traditional Pakistani, the flavor, texture and aroma of this dish is so unique, definitely a must, we asked level 2 spice and it was wonderful. We also had the Chana Masala, this is the best Chana I've tried, so garlicky, so good, the chickpeas had the perfect texture as well, again mild on the spiciness, just great. We also had Chicken Szechuan chaomein, great noodles, the Szechuan flavor on this dish was just spot on. I'm so happy we came to try this place, I can confidently say and confirm this is one of the best places to eat in Houston. I can't recommend just one dish, but don't skip the Chana Masala.

A 2-year Michellin star BBQ joint was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. My friends and I got there around 10am and were lucky enough to grab a number. The number secures your spot in line but don't worry if you show up and they run out, there's a spot on the porch where the non-number line starts. We ordered moist brisket, garlic sausage, and the beef rib. For sides, we went with mac and cheese and beans. Everything was superb! The brisket melted in your mouth, no knife needed. The sausage had a nice snap to it and get great flavor. The bark on the beef rib was *chef's kiss*. The mac and cheese was creamy while the beans had a nice sweet and tangy flavor. The service is also great! While we were eating, staff would regularly check all of the tables to check if anyone needed anything. The staff taking our order also chatted with us about other BBQ spots we've been to. Everything was such a great experience and the quality of the food is 100/10!

Sadly, it closed shortly after my visit. But I read in the reviews that this was formerly a Burrito District, so I didn't even realize this was the former Ori'Zaba's until I walked in. So apparently this spot has struggled to keep one concept for whatever reason. The interesting thing about Wise Street Eats is that you can opt to build a healthy bowl with Greek inspirations, or you can do what I did and order the Dirty Mac bowl with fried chicken, mac-n-cheese and cajun fries. I'm a real sucker when restaurants put "Most Popular" on their menu, which made my decision to order this, a quick one. What I will say is that, while I enjoyed the Dirty Mac, in retrospect, I would have preferred if it was a side dish, rather than my entire meal, because it was quite heavy (as one would expect). About halfway through it, I realized I was going to have to bring the energy to take down this valiant opponent. Next time, I'll build a bowl. Or maybe even go with a burger. But I do appreciate the dirty mac and if I was still a man who got hungover, I'd consider it a pretty elite hangover remedy.

But after that, I have to say that I will say that I like how quick the service was. You can see them making your food fresh after ordering and I appreciate that they tried to move quickly because there were people going in and out on the Saturday afternoon I was there. I personally don't like the thick bread and prefer the pita pocket style of rolls, but that's just personal preference. So I'm not even counting that part of the review. Because I expected it to have the thinner bread, I asked them to cut it. I usually like to have my sandwich cut in the middle, so I can eat half of it while driving since I'm almost always on the go. When they cut half of the sandwich, the aluminum foil bits were inside of the sandwich and that was really annoying because I had to pick off almost half of the sandwich from the ends of the sandwich just to make sure I didn't eat any bits of aluminum foil. I would ask them to either cut sandwiches in half separately before wrapping or have better quality aluminum foil (You can see the aluminum foil in the pictures). The sauce and meat was good and the veggies seemed fresh. I'm not knocking this place down, I'll definitely be back to try out again but just something to be aware of. I think the gyro wrap might just be growing on me. All in all, if you like a fluffy, smaller sanplacedwich like they do up north, instead of a longer shawarma wrap, definitely try this place out!
