    Wokk Fried Rice Bowl w/ Pork Belly and Brisket Eggroll
    Justin T.

    I first discovered Wokker when they had a location at The Conservatory. Sadly, they are no longer there, but was happy to see they have this location as well. What started off as a food truck has grown into a couple of actual restaurants and they still have the truck too from what I understand. What they offer here is Asian food with some southern fusion. Think Asian bases like pad Thai or fried rice and infuse it with some southern BBQ. That's exactly what I got. I went with fried rice bowl with pork belly. The rice was topped with tender, smoky pork belly, along with kimchi and a fried egg. The melding of flavors was awesome. Every component of the meal was done right. We also shared an order of the briskey eggrolls. This too was a flavor bomb. I thought the brisket would be dried out inside a fried eggroll wrapper, but it was very good. They used the thin wrappers used for spring rolls, so it was crispy, but not too thick to where you lose the flavors of the filling. Overall, this is a great, fast casual spot serving up great fusion food. I shall be back!

    Brisket Curly Fries
    Sammy K.

    The brisket on the curly q fries was really good. I'd recommend them. The brisket eggrolls were a bit of a disappointment though. Should be served with bbq sauce as opposed to an Asian dip. Service was cool. I placed my order easily and food was cooked to order. Place was a vibe and full of people on their way to the Astro's game.

    Good service, and good food! There's a secret surprise if you ask the right question !! I will totally come back here for the food and drinks ! :)

    Casual Asian fusion brick and mortar spot on the north side of town within the loop. It's not the best part of town but rent is probably cheaper here. You order up front at the counter and get served your food fairly quickly. Service is friendly and fast; they have only one front of house staff. We got the chicken green dumplings (3/5), bonito brussell sprouts (2/5), and brisket curly fries (4/5) for apps. I wasn't a big fan of the dumplings as they were slightly on the bland side. The Brussels did not have a great flavor and the sauce could've been a bit less salty. The curly fries with brisket tasted like a food truck special and was very filling and the brisket is good as well. For the main, I got the brisket pad Thai (4/5) and a Vietnamese coffee (3.5/5). The pad Thai actually worked decently with the brisket, which was moist and flavor wise, and a step above Rudy's but not quite a Truth brisket. The pad Thai tastes like a slightly sweeter version of a pad Thai usually served at Thai spots. Overall, it's a fast casual fusion spot and they have some solid options for a quick lunch.

    Brisket Eggroll (4)
    Blessing D.

    Brisket is definitely the thing to get when you come here. It's juicy, it's flavorful and mixes with Asian flavors surprisingly well. The service was good, nothing over bearing or great but just right. The decor and maneki neko cowboy is just right for what this restaurant provides. The only reason why I couldn't give them a 5th star is because the rice bowls were genuinely terrible. Plain rice that was so oily with a runny egg on top. The chicken and the shrimp were both horrible neither of us finished our food. A small upside is the kimchi which was pretty good.

    We haven't received the refund yet.

    Do Not Eat here! I'm still haven't received a refund for the contaminated food. This is not acceptable. There was some type of plastic/paper mixed in with the brussel sprouts and orange chicken. Eating this caused me to have stomach pains and diarrhea. I choked and vomited the food back up.

    I have to give this place a solid 5 because the food and service was excellent. Yes it's bare bones as far as decor goes but it is what it is. The food here is excellent. Popped in because I live in the neighborhood and I did not want to venture far. Service was friendly and attentive. It is a walk up to the counter, place your order and your food would be brought out to you establishment. It was a Sunday and the place was not packed. We started with the jalapeno bites. They were so good we ordered two more helpings to go. I had the orange chicken bowl (so good). The grilled onions and peppers where a nice compliment to the dish. My friend ordered the fried rice bowl and it was very delicious. The food came out fresh and made to order. I was really impressed with this place and was impressed by the quality of the food. I will definitely be back. There is a little speakeasy inside called Méo. One of the employees showed us the secret entrance because I asked. It was closed at the time but can't wait to have cocktails there. I will definitely come back here.

    The food is fresh and amazing and has a great spice and flavoring. I love the brisket egg rolls and their pork belly rice! The cashier was super friendly and was very informative about all three menus and their times. I love the decorations and the cool updated decor!

    Oh man, I stumbled across the place by accident and I am soooo glad I did. I was grabbing food while on my way to my brothers for our Saturday family hang out. This food is so good! We ordered two of the fried rice bowls one pork belly and one brisket and my brother had the shaken beef. I specifically had the brisket and it's so delicious it tastes candied and it's cooked to perfection it compliments the egg in the bowl. In true little sister fashion I ate a piece of food out of everyone's bowl while unpacking the to go bag and can confirm all food was delicious haha. I didn't dine in but the person at the register was very nice and my food was ready quickly. Highly recommend trying this place out!

    Cowboy Katsu pork belly fried rice bourbon pepper steak
    Lily N.

    I'd say solid place for a quick lunch, but their food does better as a food truck than a standalone store. It is a fast-casual Texas-Asian fusion restaurant that is spacious, but the furniture is pretty bare bones. It is a nice concept, but the execution is not inventive or new. Cowboy katsu- 6.5/10 Fried pork katsu in a BBQ/teriyaki sauce over a bed of rice topped with pickled onions, green onions, and a sunny-side up egg. I prefer my eggs more fried, but the yolk was nice and runny. The katsu could be more fried, crispy, and flaky. Sauce seemed like a pretty basic mixture of BBQ and ketchup. Pork belly fried rice- 6.8/10 I love the fried rice, it was savory, salty, sweet, not too oily. Pork belly is juicy and chewy; it's hard to get pork belly wrong! Feels like a homecooked cheat meal I make for myself haha. Bourbon pepper steak- 6/10 Steak and peppers were good, but no special twist or anything that stood out. You can get this at your local Chinese takeout for about the same price with a much larger serving. Not sure if I would return because the recipes are basic, nothing really wow'd me, but nothing wrong for a relatively cheap bite.

    Delicious Asian fusion restaurant! Tried the BBQ brisket eggrolls, bonito brussel sprouts, brisket curly fries, shaken beef, pork belly fried rice, and brisket pad thai.

    Pork belly fried rice & brisket egg rolls
    Maria E.

    Fun fusion joint that combines Texan and Asian influences. The pork belly fried rice was tasty with tender and fatty pork belly. The brisket egg rolls were good as well although I wished the brisket was juicier. Great flavors overall. Love the vibe here. The space is pretty big with just enough decoration to entertain the eye. They were also playing killer Southern jams (e.g. Tammy Wynette). Friendly service. Clean bathrooms. Ample parking.

    Levi Goode, like his late father, has an excellent eye for design and detail and for me, as a…read morenative Houstonian, it is always such a pleasure to visit one of the Goode restaurants to see the themed decoration of the interior. Been coming to these restaurants since their incarnation, with that original barbecue location on Kirby Drive. How many years ago? Over fifty possibly? The chips and salsa were good. Enjoyed with my drink of choice, the uber carbonated Topo Chico in the bottle. Coca-Cola didn't mess with the carbonation when they bought the company. At the Yale location, a wall with the decorative wooden plates of Michoacán. I own just one. I count 18 on one wall. But one day, when we move into assisted living, I am going to contact Levi to see if he wants to buy our extensive collection of Mexican folk art. I especially think he will love taking ownership of my collection of Huichol masks. (I hope). A person on Houston Heights Foodies recommended the enchiladas saying that they were to die for and so, today, for lunch that is what I chose to have. Evaluation? The rice was acceptable but dry as if it had been under a heat lamp or reheated, the charro beans were good, the plate was hot, and the enchiladas were classically Tex-Mex and fresh tasting. I had been worried that everything would have a creosote mesquite smokiness, but it didn't. The beans had a hint of that creosote smell and taste, but not a deal breaker. But I had a taste and left the rest. Personal preference. A lovely waitress from Monterrey. Whereas an experience at their West Gray location was not memorable, I was pleased with my lunch here, today. $28 with tip.

The restaurant is warm, inviting, charming, everything you would expect from Goode Co. We started with the queso, which was absolutely delicious. I chose the Old No 7 for my entree. I subbed out the pork Carnitas for the shredded chicken. This plate was perfect, especially for someone who had never been there before it had a little bit of everything. I appreciated that there was avocado on both my taco and my tostada. I know it's a little thing, but certainly the perfect addition. My food was absolutely delicious. My friend that joined me for lunch had the beef tacos El Carbone. Needless to say, neither of us were able to finish our plates, but we still ordered dessert because we had both never been and didn't want to miss the opportunity. We ordered the sopapillas and I ordered a tres leches to go, a personal fav of my youngest son. As you can tell from the pictures, the food had an excellent presentation. I felt everything was priced reasonably and did I mention how absolutely scrumptious everything was. We will be back again soon.

The green curry (2.5/5) and broccolini (2/5) were both a little undercooked and lacked flavor for my liking. The cocktails were a standout for me, beautifully presented and tasted delicious.

Food: - Chicken liver pate: 10/10 SOOOO good! The bread that comes with it is amazing too. There is some sweet jam that is paired with it also.

Ricotta? Brown butter? Yup amazing! Creamy, delicate, but not just a big mush that makes me want to gag. - Lamb ribs: 9/10 Nicely smoked, all around good balanced flavor - Wagyu bavette: 10/10 So good! Tender and juicy. But at this point in the meal, I'm usually pretty stuffed and the portion size is pretty decent. I would enjoy it even more if we didn't always order so many other small plates haha - Mushrooms: 9/10 Mushroom haters, please try this! You may change your mind!

Doesn't feel uppity. - One time, we got free dessert. We were the last party in there so they probably just wanted to get rid of it. The cookie was so good!
