Houston, TX: Saga Food & Wine - "restaurant was slow except for 2 large parties..."

2007-12-08T15:41:00-08:00

Review of Saga Food & Wine at 3017 Milam St, Houston, TX 77006

restaurant was slow except for 2 large parties on a friday night at 9 pm. we sat on the patio which had a nice ambiance. the food menu was presented on 2 stapled sheets of zeroxed white paper. the wine list, in a leather bounded binder, is impressive and the prices are even more amazing. w...

Houston, TX: Rudi Lechner's - "oktoberfest wednesday nights"

2007-12-04T17:50:08-08:00

Review of Rudi Lechner's at 2503 S Gessner Rd, Houston, TX 77063

by neverfull:

the $13.95 oktoberfest buffet was not bad. the goulash, sausage, and roasted chicken were delicious. the salad bar was boring, the rouladen was a disappointment. it was dry and flavorless, although it looked delicious. the schnitzel was a little tough and dry — i’m sure it̵...

Houston, TX: Pho Saigon - "damn good pho. one of the best cheap meals in..."

Review of Pho Saigon at 2808 Milam St, Houston, TX 77006

by neverfull:

damn good pho. one of the best cheap meals in houston for under $5. spring rolls are sometimes rubbery, meaning they aren’t made fresh to order. pork chop rice plates look delish, but i haven’t been in the mood to pass on pho. service is rude, unattentive, but expediant.

Houston, TX: This Is It - ""this is it soul food" is in the large shack..."

2007-12-04T14:29:47-08:00

Review of This Is It at 207 W Gray St, Houston, TX 77019-5453

by neverfull:

“this is it soul food” is in the large shack next door to front porch pub in midtown. it is a cafeteria style restaurant w/ huge portions. choose 1 entree and 3 sides for about $11 — a little pricey in my opinion, especially for a dive joint like this, but leftovers will b...

i tried the restaurant for the first time last month. it was a saturday night and i was with 2 other friends. at their price point, i was disappointed that they did not have any toro or uni that night. the maki roll menu consisted mostly of items with cooked fillings. the seaweed salad was bl...

Houston, TX: Beaver's - "gourmet BBQ joint just misses the target"

2007-11-30T12:22:38-08:00

Review of Beaver's at 2310 Decatur St, Houston, TX 77007

by neverfull:

this is monica pope (from tafia) & co.’s new restaurant concept. i wanted to love it, but it just missed the mark too many times. the inner loop needed a BBQ joint with table service — a place to dine-out and drink with friends, b/c you know we love ...

Houston, TX: Carrabba's Italian Grill - "go to the one on kirby"

Review of Carrabba's Italian Grill at 1399 S Voss Rd, Houston, TX 77057-1023

by neverfull:

the only carrabba’s you can consider going to is the one on kirby that i still run by tony carrabba. the rest are just a few steps up from olive garden. even the original on kirby has been hit or miss in the last year.

Houston, TX: Strip House - "great steaks in sexy atmosphere"

2007-11-20T14:19:16-08:00

Review of Strip House at 1200 Mckinney St, Houston, TX 77010-2016

by neverfull:

the strip and bone-in prime rib (when they have it) are both awesome! pay attention to specials which can be amazing. fois gras torchon is delicious and the portion is over the top. the black truffle creamed spinach is rich and decadent, skip the goose fat potatoes which are bland. dessert...
