The food was excellent, and even though it was my first time visiting, they made me feel like family.

I was immediately welcomed with samples and it was actually hard to decide on one thing to get. Everything tasted good, I had the overload and I have to come back for the spaghetti! ⛽️⛽️⛽️

No matter what part of town you live, this place is worth the drive if you’re looking to treat yourself! Nicest people and yummiest food!

I love trying new things and the food was something I’ve never experienced. Like a cross between seafood gumbo and Alfredo… idk. Whatever the combo was it was good and my wife and mom both enjoyed it as well. I’m a little late with the review, but I also loved seeing the family all together and I’m glad they were able to turn Covid into something so positive! Wishing the best for this black owned business.

Visiting from Atlanta we found this to be one of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had! Friendly down home hospitality and everything we sampled was superb!! It’s a must when in Houston!

I was downtown and googled fried fish. I saw this place had 4.9 stars out of 5.0 stars, and decided to go check it out. Once I entered the corner store and walk toward the back, immediately felt like I had walked into my grandmother‘s house, music playing, food was cooking, and smelling so good. Customers reminded me of my aunts, sitting and talking and waiting on their food. The whole family vibe that I haven’t felt in years since my grandmother passed away in 2012. I needed that after the week I had. Then, I was introduced to the menu, and given 3 to 4 samples. I’m just gonna tell y’all go take your family. I’m gonna make this place a regular for me to visit because my soul needs it. 🥹 Thank you to the owners, who cook…that family is amazing and I pray that God bless y’all‘s business a hundredfold I absolutely loved it. ❤️🥹

I tried this place for the first time today. Gotta try the blackened fish at least once in your life. I’m still eating it. Spoon in my right hand as I type with my left. So divine that I had to share on here. Owners are very warm and welcoming. Money well spent.

Food was good and cooked fresh. I needed a little bit more salt on mine but overall it was flavorful with a kick. The young lady in the front had a great personality and lots of energy, she is great and welcoming. Kudos to her. The location is in a gas station on the corner of Almeda and Southmore. I got the hot topic with blackened fish and shrimp. Check them out of you can.

I had been wanting to try Bo-bobs for a while, and I’m so glad I finally made my way over. I was craving some gumbo, which was fantastic. As I was waiting for my gumbo, the lovely owners gave me some samples of all of their staples. The overload was incredible and will be my next order. The chicken and broccoli over cornbread was also delicious and will be a good warm your bones kind of meal once winter rolls around. I will for sure be back.
