    I'm from San Antonio. That matters because I'm a bit of a taco snob. When my Houston friends invite…read moreme to eat Mexican food I always have questions! This place is phenomenal. Mostly because they have a fresh product (homemade tortillas matter) and they have figured out how to fuse Indian and Polynesian with Tex Mex. Walter gave great service! He suggested I try both salsas. My favorite was the oregano but there is also a cilantro mint. We ate outdoors. The ambiance was awesome. Come and enjoy! They need more morning business. Let's keep Da Gama going! For where your tortilla is, there your heart will be also.

It's in the Heights and there is a parking lot, but spaces are limited, so keep that in mind. The food and service lived up to the Michelin recognition. We started with the Crab Pani Puri, which was fantastic. Fresh, sweet crab inside an incredibly light semolina puff. The Gunpowder Fries with turmeric aioli were also great and plenty to share. The Goan Fish Curry was the standout for me. The coconut curry was beautifully balanced and worked so well with the snapper, shrimp, and crabmeat. We added the Bullet Sourdough Naan, which is an absolute must. Light, airy, and so flavorful. We ended with the Ras Malai Cake. My friend loved it, but the sponge texture and flavor weren't for me. Overall, a great meal with several dishes I'd happily come back for.

The food was so good we started devouring each dish as they put a new item on the table. ‍ Food ratings: Focaccia bread- 5/5. Warm. Buttery slightly crusty too with soft insight. Yum. Roasted cauliflower - 4.5/5. In a Wonderful sauce. Touch of lemon flavor. Little crunchy. Good! Ensalata Mixta- 5/5. Salad dressing vinegarette was wonderful. Vinegarette dressing is terrific. Slightly spicy. Olives are soooo fresh. I didn't recognize some of the olives. They were super tasty. Beware they have pits. Hangar steak - 4.5/5. Flavor is great. Tender. Ordered it med rare (MR). Not even sure if it came out MR but it was just tasty. Spicy Beef Empanadas- 5/5. A touch of spiciness pepper that lingers in your mouth. Just right. Flavorful. Flaky bread. Really good. Seafood paella - 4/5. The seafood was cooked just right and flavors were good with the rice. Staff: The staff was great. Our server was attentive & gave menu recommendations. Several managers checked on us. The general manager, Andrew stopped by the table to ensure all was well. Zac, the drink manager, also was super helpful helping pick my wine. He let me sample 2 choices prior to making my selection. I decided to get a flight so I told him what I liked & he selected & brought me a sparkling, white & red per my description of preferences. Also, I saw where they gave a birthday sangria where you order sangria & they pour it down your throat. I wasn't close enough to snap a pic/video but it was quite a thing at one of the celebrating tables. It was my husband's birthday but that was not an option for him.Lol. The atmosphere is elevated casual. It's lively. It was a very enjoyable date night, birthday celebration night. I absolutely recommend it & will absolutely return!

    Another great tapas restaurant!…read more We had reservations and they took us right away. There is $5 valet parking right next door to the restaurant.

    So, Google and the in kind spp, it makes it seem like it is super luxurious, however it's not. But…read morethat did not stop me. There's a beautiful authentic Brazilian feel when you enter inside. The tile on the floor is beautiful and it really makes me want to travel. My server, karen, was great. Though they didn't have most of what I wanted (and this being my first time annnnd being super hungry) I still respect that she kept her cool and tried to give me options. I order the passion fruit juice and tried the Churrasco Gaucho with collard greens and rice. The juice was an 8 out of 10. Not too sweet and a really nice refreshing flavor. I think if it was a little bit colder it would have been a point or so higher. churrasco gaucho was a solid 9 out of 10. It was super flavorful from meat to me. It came with steak, pork, sausage, and chicken. All very very flavorful. The collard greens were a nice surprise. I was concerned when she said they it was fried but it was fried very lightly with olive oil. The flavor was absolutely delicious. And the texture was nice. Not hard not soft just perfectly chewable.. I know that sounds weird but it was. Another nice surprise was the rice. It was literally Delicious By itself. I am not one to season my white rice at home so, that's what really made me surprise but goodness gracious I could have eaten the rice by itself and I'm not a rice girl like that. Overall, I am certainly going to come here again. I am so excited that I decided to try it randomly today. I love trying out new restaurants and this place is going to be on my list for a while.

Time to Appetizers: 20 minutes Time to Entree: 25 minutes Arrived at 2:30PM on a Saturday and were directed to sit anywhere. We sat near the buffet, which was a bit unclear. There was a live guitarist/singer playing which was a fantastic vibe. A complimentary basket of four pieces of cheese bread was brought out, excellent way to start the meal! For two people, we ordered: 2x Coxinha (3.5/5): While the chicken is a tad dry, it's complimented well by the creamy sauce 1x Kibe (3/5): Reminded me of a meatball crossed with a falafel, like something you'd order on a skewer. Not too grainy and a nice smoky flavor. 1x Risole de Camarao (4.5/5): I thought this was a better version of the Coxinha. The shrimp flavor really permeates and reminds you of a shrimp risotto in a single bite. Churrasco Gaucho (16oz) (2/5): We decided to get this to sample all of the meats. Unfortunately I thought everything was really salty. Maybe it's characteristic of the Brazilian grilling style, because the smoky flavors did come through, but it just felt too salty for me on everything. Honestly maybe it just needed some kind of vegetable besides beans to help offset. Whatever their chili sauce is (5/5): I have no idea what this is but it reminds me of mashed up bird eye chili sauce..it's really good. Sprinkle it on everything. Helps with the saltiness of things. Milk Flan (4/5): A rich custard style of flan, thick and very sharable. Not too sweet. I liked this as a great palate cleanser. Service was really prompt and friendly. Paid via inKind with no issues.

    Nando's Peri Peri is located in the same upscale shopping center as Kenny & Ziggy's Delicatessen…read moreand is easy to find. It has an attractive outside and covered patio dining area along with an equally attractive interior space with nice music playing in the background. It is a counter service restaurant that lets you order from your table using a QR code along with ordering at the counter if you wish. I ordered the 1/2 chicken meal and picked the lemon and herb spice flavoring. They offer 5 levels of heat if you want to burn. I don't. The meal I asked for came with one side dish and I chose the fries for $16.49. For another $2.50, I could have ordered another side dish. With a peach flavored ice tea and tax my bill was a little over $21. I used the QR code and ordered from the table which was convenient, A manager came to my table shortly after ordering to say that my chicken was going to be about 15 minutes before being ready and offered to substitute other pieces for it which I declined and said I could wait. It was nice of her to do that and showed good customer service. While I waited, I went to the self serve drink station to get my delicious peach tea and noticed they offer several sauces in self serve bottles that you can use to enhance your protein. Nice touch! The meal was actually delivered just 10 minutes later. The bird was juicy and flavorful. I enjoyed it. The fries were hot and delicious too. Yes, I was happy with this meal. Nando's impressed me. Good food, friendly customer service, reasonable prices all in a nice atmosphere. I look forward to my next visit.

Nando's seems to rely on its various sauces for a gimmick, but the sauces are all vinegar-based with good flavor but nothing more than vinegar salad dressing. The french fries were soggy and plain. The tomato and cucumber salad was no more than tomatoes, cucumber, and bland balsamic vinegar dressing. I see no reason to go back here because I can cook better than this at home. What is much more interesting than the food is the interior design at the Post Oak location. This restautant has a fun and well designed interior, much like a restautant you might see in London, which has a highly diverse collection of restaurants. The service was very good: The host and hostess were friendly and quick, and the food was prepared in a reasonable amount of time.
