Favorites of Houston

Everytime someone comes to visit, or we want to go out to eat, we always have to sit and think....WHERE should we go?? I still have a list of restaurants I want to try, but here are some of my favorites in H town.....


Some favorite seafood/steakhouse places are....

Trulucks
America's

I was not impressed by The Oceanaire or Smith and Wollensky.

Taste of Texas is pretty good too.

Still want to try Strip House, Reef Restaurant, Pesce, and Glass Wall restaurant.


Favorite mexican places are....



El Tiempo - drinks are very strong
Lupe's

Not a huge fan of Chuy's like everyone else.

Guadalajara is good too, but not my favorite. I like the seafood enchilada at Cafe Adobe.


Sushi


Favorite so far is Azuma on Kirby near Rice Village. Their is also a location downtown. They have the best crunchy roll. The red devil and crazy irish man roll are also very good.

Oishii has decent sushi for a good price.

Sushi King is decent as well.


Brunch


Mia Bella on Lexington is good.
Empire Cafe on Westheimer is really good. I love the tomato mozarella egg dish that they have.

I have been to Benjy's for dinner and it was good so I would like to try their brunch. Farrago's is good too! I hear King Biscuit on White Oak is good too!



Pizza

Favorite is Star Pizza on Norfolk. Half Starburst half Ben's pizza thin crust. DO NOT TRY THE DEEP PAN. It's not good. Their version of thin crust is perfect, not too thin.

I love California Pizza Kitchen. The chipotle pizza is the best!! The chicken lettuce wraps are good too!

I want to try Kenneally's pizza, located on Shepherd. I hear its good.


Asian


If you like PF Chang's - go for Pei Wei the much cheaper version. It tastes just as good!

That's all for now.....
