“4 of us were invited to come here by a great friend on a Thursday night for Chingona Jueves and at first I was skeptical because we had never been to a gay bar but let me tell you we all had a great time. The music was fantastic so kudos to DJ Urí The people here were all fantastic and treated us as if they had known us forever. Definitely feeling a sense of belonging. They made us feel welcomed. We enjoyed the show put on by a very beautiful and friendly lady dancing and having fun, entertaining us with her moves. We all danced and had so much fun with the regulars here. We danced without being judged and this is definitely the place.The drinks were on point thanks to our great bartender Victor. Very attentive to our need of drinks.We didn't order food but will be coming back for steak night on Wednesday's. We heard great things about this so come try it out starting at 6:30 pm. There is plenty of parking available with security and lots of lighting in the parking lot.They have a pool table in the back (no pun intended) so come have fun.I would definitely recommend this place for a great time and the best thing is there was no cover charge and parking was free, a great plus.Definitely coming back because we loved the music, ambiance and the people. So glad we visited this place.“
“Great place to relax, have a few drinks and meet interesting people.The shows are phenomenal and the piano nights are great.The bartenders are always friendly. It’s a nice place where there’s no pretentiousness or posing, everybody goes there to have a good time.“
“First time back in Houston in a while and went to a few bars before this that were not so good until we got here! The music, atmosphere, and bartenders made it a great experience! Would definitely go back! Wish where I lived now had someplace like Ripcord! It really will be one of a kind!!!“
“This was me and my friend,s first time clubbing I'm bi and my friend is strait we felt so safe and comfortable here. The staff was so sweet and polite. The Drinks were great. We loved the atmosphere overall a great place with no judgement. We truly felt welcome. It was lit. If I could I would spend every weekend here ?“
“As a gay man, I’ve never been to a Lesbian bar. First time—I’ve never felt so welcomed and so comfortable in an LGBTQ environment. I had fun I danced on the gorgeous host. This was one of the best nights in Houston to be quite honest. Can’t wait to go back.“
“When I tell you I had to clutch my Pearl's when the legendary Roxanne Collins name was announced...thy pearls were clutcheth! My friends were visiting from Austin. We got free VIP seating right in front of the show. The entire staff was gracious. I'd definitely go back.“
“Karaoke night impressed with a lot of great singers! This place has a nice dance floor, a decent pool table/game area and an awesome outdoor space. The outside patio is huge! Service was great, vibe was great and I love that it was immaculately clean. A hidden gem!“
“I've been coming to this place from out of town when I visit my sister for at least three years. She has as much fun as I do. Always a good time always plenty of security for the parking lot. A amazing view of the skyline at night. that makes beautiful pictures from their decks, amazing shows and beautiful strippers who are kind. The building is old but you don't even mind you have such a good time. I made friends with a couple of the strippers and not in the proverbial way. They're both gay and straight and one that I really connected with introduced me to his girlfriend as we left for the night. Between Christmas and New Year's the last time I went my sister was sick and not able to go with me and he actually remembers us from the 2 to 3 times a year I get to go and said to let her know he wished she was not sick and couldn't wait to see her next time And he made it. I've got to give props to this place highly recommend if you want to have a good time and you are gay, trans gay friendly, and just wanna have a good time and it doesn't cost a fortune!“
“I'd rate this establishment at 4.5 stars, but I've rounded it up to five stars for this review. The cuisine exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere was both pleasant and lively. Even with the restaurant bustling, partly due to a Selena tribute event, the service team remained prompt and observant.The garlic parmesan fries were irresistible—I couldn't stop eating them, even after they had cooled down. The cleanliness of the venue, coupled with enjoyable entertainment, made my visit worthwhile. Well done, Rich's.“
