“We had an amazing experience at Balboa! Starting with the complimentary valet, which was quick and friendly service. The entry to the restaurant was super nice and a great photo opportunity spot. Kyrah took excellent care of us during our visit, and we loved the team style service. It felt like we had a team serving us, and they are so quick and quiet that you can continue to hold conversations and visit but someone is always near if you need anything. Kyrah took special care to "refresh" our cocktail glasses when we finished about half of our drinks, and made excellent recommendations. The food was absolutely amazing. Our table tried the fried shrimp, oysters, spicy ahi tuna roll, crab cake, Post Oak ribeye with pureed potatoes, salmon with the most delicious and unique salad, and heirloom tomatoes. The cocktails were delicious, including the Gold Rush, Rum Dum, and el Guero. The restaurant vibe is romantic but fun and sophisticated and has an open kitchen concept where you can see the food being made if you care to watch. I will most definitely be back and can confidently recommend this place to anyone!“

“I live in Georgia and True food kitchen is my favorite restaurant in Houston. I’ll go every weekend if possible! Food is delicious, I would suggest ordering the ancient grains bowl. Service is great, I always enjoy having Stephanny as my server, she is very kind and helpful. She has the best suggestions ever! 100% recommended!!“

“When I say this place was amazing. From Joe the bartender to Ashlee the owner. They made sure we were taken care of from the time we walked through the door. Being from Cali this experience in Houston was the best. Joe made the best drink and the food was fire. We will definitely be back.“

“Great food and staff!!!!!“

“Great staff and great food 10/10 will comeback next time in cibolo/ Schertz Tx !!“

“I am a huge fan of Black Bear. Monster portions at very reasonable prices. Their breakfasts are to die for....phenomenal scrambled eggs, thick and well cooked bacon, and monster biscuits bigger than your saucer plate! I promise you, you'll be asking for a take home container cuz you can't eat it all. Delicious and SO WELL WORTH the money.“

“The food and service were excellent.“

“Great staff and great food 10/10 will comeback next time in cibolo/ Schertz Tx !!“

“our service was top notch thanks to Victor. He was welcoming and very attentive. I would highly recommend asking for him when you visit.“

“Excellent service, a real presentation of the food, all courses. I did restaurant week, but most at my table ordered off regular menu. The desserts were not as good as they sounded, but the entrees were great. A little heavy on the salt, but otherwise good. My family lived the Paella, and the beef medallions were rich and the appetizers of fried asparagus and a mix were good, but my favorite was the shrimp cocktail. Would get that again. We were in a private room for 8, and we had an excellent time. Valet is necessary, but I felt good about parking.“

“Katherine was an outstanding waitress. Thank you.“

“Unforgettable Kitchen & Cocktails truly lives up to its name! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The cocktails were creative, well-balanced, and paired perfectly with the meal. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The atmosphere was stylish, comfortable, and perfect for a night out with friends or a special occasion. I had a fantastic experience and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!“

“Like many of the others at Willie’s… Expertly, efficiently and engaging done..!!✅ Does not disappoint..!! The new bar at the Barker Cypress & 290 location is a welcome addition..!! Well done.. I say…well done..!!🎉👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽“

The food is really good and there are plenty of healthy options. And the hospitality is beyond amazing. Thank you so much everyone for making our anniversary so beautiful, and special thanks to Eddy who went far and beyond to make our night perfect!!“

“We had our Team27HTX post-race party at Wakefield Crowbar this past Sunday (January 11), and it was such a great experience. They generously hosted our group, gave us the kids’ play area and a court to use, and provided plenty of space for a large, family-friendly crowd. There were tons of drink options, the food was easy and delicious for adults and kids, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. They also donated 20% of the proceeds from our group to the Heaven’s 27 Foundation, which was incredibly meaningful to us. Huge thanks to Dawn, Omid, and all of Wakefield Crowbar for their generosity and hospitality. Highly recommend for group events!“

“We have a great experience every time we dine at Black Walnut in Rice Village. The food is consistently delicious, and the staff is always helpful and genuinely pleasant. We can honestly say we’ve never had a poor experience at this location. The menu has something for everyone, making it an easy favorite for a casual breakfast, lunch, or dinner.“

“We had the absolute PERFECT evening celebrating my husband's 60th birthday! Our server Brittany was TOP NOTCH and went above and beyond excellent service! I would highly recommend asking for her again! Her suggestions, explanations and demeanor were on point! The food...omg, absolutely phenomenal! From the hostesses the minute we walked in to the valet as we left, was the best evening!“

“Chef Paul is an incredibly talented chef. Everything I have had here is delicious!“

“This restaurant is a gem! The menu offers such a wide variety of dishes, and every single one we tried was delicious! What really makes this place stand out, though, is the heart behind it. The owner leads with generosity and is deeply invested in supporting local schools and the community. It’s rare to find a spot where you not only enjoy incredible food but also know your visit is helping uplift the neighborhood. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a memorable meal and a business worth supporting!“

“My first time here and we love it 🤗🥰🙏“

“It was our first time there, and the lady behind the counter was very helpful about the best items to get, and also what she recommended. Great food and HUGE portions! Gotta visit this place and come hungry.“

“Out of all the restaurants in Houston, this one will always be my favorite. Whether you just dropping in to grab a quick cocktail and light bite, or indulge in their exquisite lunch and dinner menu, you will never leave disappointed. I’ve had the luxury of Princess, my ride or die waitress, serve me and countless friends on many occasions over many moons. She is not only personable but professional and I’m blessed to now show up and my favorite bottle of wine is being brought out before I even sit down. Hands down. The best. I love this place, and I love princess :)“

“Loved this place! Food was good and service was awesome.“

“Great customer service at the bar..“

“Eats Mesquite Grill made my two week trip to Houston memorable. It started with the pork sandwich. How can I be so blessed? I did have to come back because I saw my jealous eyes on a full stomach saw someone else's ribeye. You can see my point, can't you? I couldn't get by without a breakfast burrito, the best I had in my life because there was not too much potato, and the potato it did have was both soft and crispy somehow. I had never had a buffalo burger before. After thanking God that buffaloes have revived as a species enough that we can make burgers out of them, I discovered that it isn't discernibly different than beef. The shrimp po' boy did not escape me, half gone already in the pic. It was my deepest regret to drive out on a Sunday, when they were closed. I had to go to online church to handle the disappointment (that's a joke, although I did go to online church afterwards). It was even sadder that my schedule would not permit a revisit in my last two days. Eats Mesquite Grill. I love you.“

“Flower Child is amazing! we have been coming for years! The woodlands location is closer to us and we love the outside seating.“

“Good selection of happy hours cocktails & bits.“

“JANETT the best services in Houston“

“Just left there. Had the big breakfast. Friendly staff and I loved the oldie's vibe in music. The food was great. We will definitely be back again!“

“Tried them for the first time on a Friday and went back the next day…I intend to try everything on the menu…lol. I’m talking about so much flavor. I had the garlic lemon butter wings and fries first, then the pork chops the next day…they do not disappoint!!!! What will I try next????“

“Another Houston winner (I may just start a blog the way I’m eating Houston up 😂)! Visited this establishment this weekend and simply, The Bacon Jam Burger sliders…Delicious! That jam! Served with fries and extra Cajun season salt with the dynamite dip! My God! The staff was wonderful! Would recommend and definitely coming back to try the salads!“

“Loved the Dinner & Craft cocktails at the Bridgeland location, all 6 of us did! It will definitely become a go to. ❤️“

“I only recommend just take the food and bring your own coffees because their coffee tastes is awful and the prices of the foods are reasonable“

“Dinner at the place where traditions of excellence are still strong is always a delight! Since the first location on Post Oak to new location in the Memorial a change was only in an address. Great service, quality ingredients, proper technique of preparation, all caries with a traditions of the Mazraff’s restaurant! Certainly all loyal patrons following, because they know what to expect and value that! Today I told Russell Masraff that I remember him with a dark hair, now we both are getting grey hair color. Nonetheless, good food and company will keep your eyes sparkly and spirit soaring! Mazraff’s is a place with traditions! Lana - Alchemy of Flavors“

“This THAI TURMERIC LEMONADE is the absolute best ever….. I plan to stop by everyday 😍“

“I wanted to give a shoutout to our waitress, Jasmine! She was the absolute best waitress I think I’ve ever had! So friendly, super patient with our kids, attentive, and made sure our food was actually how we wanted it. Thanks so much, Jasmine!😊“

“I visited Belong for the first time yesterday and I will be back. Since my sister and I were out running errands, we couldn’t buy the meals we wanted as we had nothing to keep them cool. However, I did buy a package of cinnamon rolls. They are amazing. I can’t wait to go back and buy a few meals!“

“We just came to OMG Burger yesterday in between my son’s baseball games with half of his team and our experience was awesome! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was outstanding. They were very patient with all of us and our food came out very fast considering how many of us ordered. We will definitely return if we are back in the area!“
