    Large salted pretzel served with butter and spicy dijon
    Jason D.

    I've been out here a few times now and I can say it's been consistently awesome each time. Located just outside of 610 in the meyerland area, it has a ton of lot parking. I've been out here for trivia, happy hour, birthdays, and St. Patty's Day. Their food, their service and their beer has been consistently excellent. It is also the preferred watering hole for my friends in the area. I was not aware everyone was in a first name basis, knowing is half the battle. They have a good selection of brews, as well as a full bar service. The food has been consistently excellent. Parking is easy, they have a giant lot that should make it an easy task. They have indoor, and patio seating. Definitely recommend. We'll be back.

    It really is true that you can find just about any of the world's cuisines in Houston . German. The Watershed in W Bellfory at S Post Oak has an extensive menu of German specialties and beers. Highly recommended. Photos in comments. I'm going to let the photos do the talking.

    Order at the bar. Grab your own seat. Fill your own soda. Great place to hang out with friends. Come here for the beer! Pork shank: 3/5. Not worth the price. Sweet potato fries were overcooked. An air fryer would have done a better job. Overall, ok food, but not worth the premium prices.

    Cool place for sure ! Parking: They're in a shopping center so there's tons of parking ! Seating: They have tables (4 tops) and booths. I didn't find the tables particularly comfortable or noteworthy but we were able to pull several together since we had a bug group which was nice. Ordering: You do have to go up to the bar to put in your order. They do bring your food order to you though! I love that they had a cider option instead of just beer. I think they have a full bar too I ordered the burger and it was DELICIOUS ! I was honestly surprised Ambiance: Their decor is pretty cool and a nod to having been in Houston for so long. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here but it's a solid and chill place if you're in the area.

    Bratwurst with sweet potato fries

    I have been going to this fun hole in the wall oasis for years now. Located just southwest of the 610 loop, this watering hole offers a fine variety of food (mostly German inspired), a fully stocked bar, and fun environment. A group of friends and I found this restaurant while searching for pub trivia's years ago, and most Tuesday we meet up for some friendly competition and libations. The bar itself has fun retro parody concert posters, and bar backsplash has old cassette tapes. Every table is a great seat for trivia or just dining in general. You can peer into the kitchen just slightly, and the delicious smells ruminate as the patrons enjoy their meals. The staff has always been friendly. The owner and manager is often there and makes his way around the bar ensuring everyone is having a great time. This has been a special spot for me and my friends for years. Come out for pub trivia nights on Tuesdays!

    Smoked Rueben with warm potato salad(we split, not a full serving!)

    The smoked Rueben and hot potato salad were so good! Service was great, it was very clean, everything was top notch. Will definitely be back!

    Service was great and there is quite a selection of beers. Food was mediocre. Tater tots were nice and crispy but tasted like fish. Pastrami was very overdone, cooked to a grayish color. Some retro decor, but boxes and storage out front is at bit of a mess.

    Packed fries
    Linh P.

    We got the packed fries, which we really liked. Loved the gravy combo with the cheese. The fries were really crispy, yet light and airy. They're pretty much perfect fries. It is a bit on the pricier side ($14 for the portion you're getting). I got the pork shoulder with sauerkraut and potatoes. The pork was pretty good (a little on the dry side), but the whole dish was a bit on the greasier side for me. I think it must be from the pork, but I moved it into a to go box and the next day the to go box was pretty oily too. I really wanted to try the pork shank, but it was $30 so I didn't want to go too ham that night (maybe next time!). My fiance enjoyed his weisswurst. The sausage had a nice flavor and it made a great combo with the pretzel bread. It comes with two sauces and my fiance said the mustard was really strong for him. It cleared up his sinuses. I liked the other sauce a lot. It kind of tasted like Japanese curry to me. The whole meal cost around $55 for us (a bit on the pricier side), but worth a try!

    Kasespatzle
    Vinh N.

    Came here on a Saturday afternoon. It wasn't too busy but it was also 1:30pm so the lunch crowd may have already left. The menu suggests that this is a German pub with some other traditional pub fares mixed in like fish & chips. Being a vegetarian, I was somewhat limited in choices. I chose the kasespatzle which is basically German mac & cheese. It was a good portion for one person as an appetizer. I liked it as it wasn't too heavy and the fried onions on top gave it a good contrast to the cheese. They have a good selection of beer on tap. Mostly German style of the local microbrew variety though. I saw Paulaner Weisse on tap and grabbed that. Refreshing on a summer day. I haven't found any microbrews that can emulate a true German hefeweizen.

    Once was enough. You have to order at bar which was ok. The food was ok, not something I'd go for again.

    Stopped by Tipsy Tavern after leaving another nearby bar hoping for a better experience, but…read moreunfortunately this visit was even more uncomfortable. Our group walked in and sat at the bar while two other guests sat nearby. The bartender immediately took the other guests' order first, then casually asked us "what do y'all want" while continuing to move around behind the bar. My friend paused because it genuinely wasn't clear if the bartender was listening to us, and the bartender responded with attitude saying, "I'm listening." When my friend ordered a Hugo Spritz, the bartender responded with "what?" and then said she only knew an Aperol Spritz. That's completely fine, not everyone knows every cocktail, but the interaction became unnecessarily rude from there. Instead of simply asking about the ingredients politely, she came back with an attitude asking us to look it up for her, and then became defensive saying "I don't know what the issue is" even though nobody had complained or created a problem. The entire interaction just felt dismissive and unwelcoming. We ended up leaving almost immediately because the energy was so uncomfortable. Hospitality and attitude matter just as much as the drinks, and unfortunately this experience missed the mark completely.

They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, a full bar, and really good food. It's kid and dog friendly, has several TVs for watching games, and even games to play while you're there.

I ordered the truffle fries for a quick bite and they were delicious. Overall, it's a welcoming spot and I'll definitely be back. Love this neighborhood bar!

I've been once or twice years ago and recently…read moredecided to give it another try, hoping for a different experience, but unfortunately I still left unimpressed. To start out, the concept feels like a blend of accents from other popular bars in the area - the hammock chairs from Axelrad, the Adirondack chairs from Truck Yard, and the string light back patio from 8th Wonder. This blend makes it hard to give the bar a true identity. While they do have a large selection of beers on tap, their cocktail menu leaves me feeling lost. I appreciate the attempt to create unique flavor combinations but the options are just...confusing. For example, mezcal with citrus and prickly pear, or a highball with black currant, tequila and apricot. I'm holding on for dear life with all of these ingredients! Going along for the adventure, I tried their pickle cocktail that was on the menu and it was honestly, terrible. While they do have a happy hour that goes until 8pm, the service this last visit just wasn't the best. The server who helped me told me it was his second day and was clearly struggling to keep up with the cocktail combinations, referencing his phone many times while preparing the drink. I ended up not liking this drink and brought it back to the bar with just one sip gone and rather than offering to make me another drink, they kept it on my bill. Ok, whatever. That being said, just before this happened, the couple in front of me went to pay for their bill, prepared drinks in hand, at 8:02pm and the bartender refused to honor the happy hour prices, just two minutes past the official end time. With these two instances, it seems like the priority is maximizing every dollar of profit rather than investing in the customer experience. Given the number of other original concepts in the area, I would pass.

I opted for the high top right by the kitchen, and honestly, great choice -- it smelled amazing. Most people prefer not to sit by the kitchen with all the foot traffic but I didn't mind it at all. Nobie's is a house that's been transformed into a restaurant. One of the bartenders told me it's a 104-year-old house, and the whole place has very "house party" vibes in the best way. The music is LOUD. And it gets progressively louder as the night goes on, so if that's not your vibe, keep that in mind. But I was very into it. Lil Flip was playing when I walked in and it took me back to high school house parties. On shuffle were more throwbacks and classics: Ludacris and "Notorious Thugs" by Biggie. The chairs, however, were not my favorite. They're low-backed and kind of cage-like, with only a thin cushion, so they aren't exactly the most comfortable for a long meal. Started with a cocktail: the Remolacha del Corazón -- beet tequila, mezcal, watermelon (house-made syrup), lime and a tajín rim. You can hardly taste the mezcal, which I'm assuming is the point. I like mezcal so it would have been nice to taste it but the beet tequila is definitely the star, with the watermelon and lime adding a nice balance. Appetizer: Don't Worry, Brie Happy ($18). Brie, local honey, smoked grapes, toast. There was basically no local honey on my plate, but those smoked grapes?! They're topped with flaky salt while they're still hot and OMG!! The combination of warm, smoky, sweet and salty was fantastic. My only complaint was the amount of toast. There was a little too much toast for the amount of brie and grapes, so the ratios felt slightly off. Main course: Jamón With Your Bad Self ($45). Ibérico secreto pork steak, tonnato, shaved Brussels sprouts, salsa verde and almonds. I'm particular about pork, so I was taking a bit of a chance here, but this dish sounded too interesting to pass up. The pork steak was cooked perfectly and had some wonderfully crispy pieces around the edges. The tonnato underneath the pork was really good. It almost reminded me of a Caesar dressing and added this rich, savory element to the dish. The shaved Brussels sprouts were great, too, especially with the almonds and Parmesan. Everything worked really well together. Dessert: Olive Oil Cake. A house staple, and for good reason. A lovely way to end the meal. Overall, Nobie's has a really fun, unpretentious energy. Between the old-house setting, loud music and memorable dishes, it feels like somewhere you go to hang out as much as you go to eat. Just know what you're getting into with the volume and the seating -- this is not exactly a quiet, polished fine-dining experience, and that's kind of the charm.
