>>11889847
What's your favorite board to shitpost on?

>>11889758

I grew up in Houston. I haven't lived there for a few years, but my favorite places were...

Chapultepec
House of Pies
Niko Niko's
Cali Sandwich
BB's Cajun
Killen's BBQ
Mala Bistro
Mai's
Hobbit Cafe
Any of the trillion dumpling joints in Chinatown

Where in town? Houston is fucking huge

>>11889758
Go to the following restaurants:

Pho Sapa off Bellaire
Spanish Flowers
Les Givrals off Milam
MF Sushi
Bubba's Burger Shack
Antonio's Flying Pizza

>>11889884
BB's and Hobbit are the only halfway good ones here and they aren't special.

BBQ is surprisingly bad in Houston.

>>11889758
Off the top of my head
Huynh, Izakaya, Helen Greek, Aladdin, Teotihuacan, Spanish Flowers. Mala Sichuan

>>11889758
Ramen Tatsuya

>>11889890

>>11889758
Beck's Prime
Papasito's
Some Mexican place that is in an old Pizza Hut.

Go to the foodcourt in sharpstown mall and start yelling "nigger".

>>11889758
Ramen bar ichi is good but they don't make their own noodles. Check out Catalina Coffee if you like coffee/tea. Stantons has probably the best burger in Houston. Star's Pizza is very good, I prefer the thin crust but their Chicago is good. Plenty of gas station taco trucks, the good ones only take cash and it is a 50-50 shot if they're legal. Try whataburger if you haven't before and experience the best fast food chain, #2 w/ cheese is my go to order. Some good places for pho but I don't really know of must go places for pho I kind of just get what's near by. Peli Peli has very good South African food but it is fairly pricey, the steak Espada is my personal favorite. Carl's BBQ is pretty good but maybe look for another BBQ restraunt if you want something nicer. Cypress breakfast house has some good tex-mex breakfast.

But yeah those are the must go places for me, I'd definetly check out Stantons because it has a cool atmosphere and Catalina Coffee is right down the road.

>>11889884
Go to house of pies if you're drunk or high.

>>11889766
Blacks and mexicans, so diverse

How good is Mexican food in Houston?

>>11891873
You're retarded. The black and Latino populations themselves diverse but there are people from all over Asia too. And regular white Texans as well

>>11889758
Petrol Station is a pretty good burger place.

>>11890574
Oops, I used the wrong picture. This is what I really meant.

>>11891899
Depends. The Tex Mex is just generic usually. There are like 9999999 tex Mex places that serve the same canned shit. For a more authentic Mexican experience, try the taco trucks (food truck trend started in Houston selling to construction workers and yard guys). They have pastor and lengua and all the good shit. Hugo Ortega also has 3 high endish places for authentic Mexican food.

Rainbow lodge is probably the best overall restaurant imo if you want a fancy meal.

Go to bellaire for the best Asian food in america except maybe San francisco.

>>11892128
I wonder why authentic Mexican food isn't more widespread considering the huge Mexican and Mexican-American population there.

>>11889758
Avoid any place with 'papas' in the name.

Hit Montrose up you faggot.

Try bbs cafe, whole food on Westheimer, definitely eat at Lola’s cafe.

>>11889758
Unironically, go to Houston's

>>11892617
What does a cafe have to do with a bulletin board system?

As a Houstonian, I second all the above recommendations.

Or want your ass fucked. Aka House of Guys.

>>11889884
>Where in town? Houston is fucking huge

This is most important. You don't want to be driving 2 hours for dinner.

Also Frenchys Chicken in the hood.

>>11889884
House of Pies is a great suggestion but only go after midnight. BB's and Hobbit Cafe are alright. Aladdin is a better alternative to Niko Niko's. Killen's is vastly overrated, I love Texas BBQ but I haven't really found a great place for it in Houston, just lots of OK places. Mai's is good but so are a million other hole in the wall Vietnamese places, but OP should definitely get pho at least once.

>>11891899
La Guadalupana for breakfast and lunch, Ninfa's on navigation or El Tiempo for the basic texmex and fajitas, Hugo's or Xochi for fancy. Other than that there's just way too many options to sort through and 90% of them are really mediocre, you just have to try places nearby to find a decent one.

>>11895265
The Frenchy's on Scott is closed, RIP.

>>11895244
House of guys is a Houston icon. You'll only get your ass fucked if you're into that.

If he's in Houston on business, there is a 100% chance that someone will take him to a Pappas restaurant. They're all fine if you're going there on a company card, just not worth going out of your way for.

Go to Burger joint, Nikos, Bb's, Fat Bao, Frank's, Good dog, Eastwood.
Just hang around Montrose and you'll find good food, shopping, and someone to split you like a coconut
