Restaurants near Houston

“Stopped by today for a brisket sandwich. This food truck is legitimate. As a native Texan from Austin, I’m very critical of brisket. First look, the smoke ring around the meat was a good sign and a nicely charred exterior meant proper smoking. Taste and texture wise the meat had moisture, plenty of fat (for brisket this is needed for flavor, texture, and retaining moisture), and a great dry rub. Great contrast of flavor and chew between the charred exterior and flaky, moist interior fat / meat. There wasn’t a need for BBQ sauce but I ordered the spicy to try it anyway, it was excellent. Best brisket I’ve had in Alaska hands down. I hope it’s this good on the return meal I’ll be purchasing in the not too distant future.”

“Creamy deliciousness in a pint, be prepared to eat the whole thing in one sitting. Family made with simple all natural ingredients, a subtle flavor and just the right amount of sweetness. I live in Fairbanks, was passing through after fishing on the Kenai, as I love trying new ice cream I’m always looking for new creameries. Definitely worth the stop. Picked up some tips and tricks on how to improve my homemade attempts in addition to a pint of Coconut with caramel swirl!”

“This is, hands down, the best restaurant in Alaska. If you've lived here for any length of time you'll understand when I say that restaurants up here don't have to sell great food to stay open, it only has to be edible. I'm not sure if that's because of the lack of options when eating out or if they have yet to discover salt in this state but that's clearly not the case at Susitna Bar and Grill. Keep up the good work guys.”

“I visit from Bismarck, ND yesterday for the first time and had the best burger I've ever had, along with an absolutely delicious cup of softserve. Don't sleep on this gem. It's definitely worth a trip!”

“We’re from Florida and we’re looking for a homemade meal. We found Big Lake Family Restaurant online. When we arrived Mitchi greeted us and seated us quickly. She was very friendly, made great recommendations on what to eat and always had a smile. The food was served quickly and warm. We will definitely be coming back.”

“It amazes me in how much heart they put into their product but, after getting to know them, I’ve realized that they put their hearts into everything they do in life.
To me, they are awesome people and have some of the best culinary superpowers I’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting. Thanks Curbside49”
