D'lites Cakes Catering & More

★★★★★ 4.5 (15)

"Ok, so Ernesto saved the day!!! Our sons 21 bday is today and we wanted a fancy / fun themed cake for him to devour during the Super Bowl. We didn't want to get him just a plain sheet cake even though he wouldn't have cared. It was 7pm 1/28/18, I browsed Yelp, saw his work & messaged him with some pics of cake ideas. He messaged me back within no time, we took care of the design, cost and he even delivered it in person today. The cake looks exactly like the picture and my son is cool as a cucumber but he was like okay... lol. It's perfect. Lol..I just wanted to take a few pics before he cut into it. Well I managed to get a few pics and the cake tastes as great as I looks!! He is such a nice guy and my husband and I will be telling everyone to use their services."

Wink by Erica

★★★★☆ 3.5 (13)

"I contacted her for my wedding and she responded initially asking about about my budget, etc. I responded about my budget and told her what desserts I would like and wanted to know if she could make them and how many I could get for my budget. I never got a response back most likely because my budget was too low for her, so maybe she felt like it wasn't worth her time. I felt like it was rude and unprofessional for her to leave me hanging like that. She could have at least responded and informed me that she did not want my business."

Mama Fontana

★★★★☆ 4.4 (10)

"We stopped in for a coffee and were greeted by friendly faces and warm cookies! We will be back, so great to have this in our neighborhood. Make sure you get a few of the Ugly But Delicious cookies to go."

Primos Taqueria

★★★★☆ 3.6 (12)

"This good ol truck stop is still open when most of the Corperate stops are closed due to the weather (end quote) . Got a pilot across the highway and their closed!!! This stop has had a major face lift at least in the c-store anyway. Building completely remodeled and all new coolers plus a beer cave!!! Restaurant is still here but needs to be remolded in a bad way. Still has the same bathroom from 40 years ago, that being said fuel pumps are moved to north side of restaurant instead of being out front and an awning over them. Still had parking just can't park by the restaurant like old times. So yes parking is limited. All in all gave it five starts for being open in this weather and being friendly still!!"

Maxco Donuts

★★★★★ 4.8 (13)

"I miss this place!It deserves 5 stars because of the Kolaches. The staff is also very friendly and courteous. I visited this place at least 20 times. We moved so we don't get a chance to visit anymore, but we highly recommend it."

Tx- Vintage Bar & Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (14)

"Very good food. Had blueberry habinero wings and holy fries. Very good. Waiter was very friendly. Atmosphere is good. Kid friendly, 5 kids and a baby. Would come back."

Oso Coffee Co.

★★★★☆ 4.3 (69)

"I have an extensive list of coffee shops on my "must try" and Oso has definitely been on my list. I got up early this morning and decided to swing by for a coffee with a friend. The location is very small but extremely inviting. The inside can sit maybe 10-15 people and there is some outdoor seating available. I could see this place getting packed pretty quickly. The staff is very friendly and the service is fast. While we already had breakfast prior to arriving we were pleasantly surprised they offered a breakfast menu. We both had the horchata latte and a concha. We really enjoyed the horchata latte was really good, super excited to try more drinks! This might be my new regular!"

Lema's bakery

★★★★★ 5 (2)

"Had a friend send this over via Uber Eats's and every single item was delicious! The feta, beef, chicken, spinach pastries were allll amazing. Can't wait to go here in person and try it out."

MoLiHua

★★★★☆ 3.8 (12)

"Overall enjoyed coming here! It feels like a speakeasy since it's hidden in a hotel and it looks like a completely different vibe inside the restaurant. The ambiance and decor is beautiful! The service was also attentive, friendly and good. The food was tasty as well. We ordered an assortment of food, including various nigiri, apps like chicken wings and tuna with truffle, and shrimp with xo sauce and hand pulled noodles. All were delicious! Keep in mind that it is valet but the restaurant validated parking!"

Crumbl - Yale

★★★★☆ 4.1 (99)

"Fast friendly service, self tablet order pads, visual of each flavor available. I tried the rice crispy cookie thinking it would be a cookie. Wrong it was completely a rice crispy treat. Even softer like totally ooeey gooey stretchy rice crispy treat. Yeah I could have made that at home. I LOVE crumble but I won't be trying this one again. If you want a cookie don't order this one. Delicious but still it was a rice krispie treat, not a cookie even though it's shaped like one."

Heritage Cafe

★★★★★ 4.6 (208) • $$

"Ms Aeran is one of the owners; she's so sweet and helpful with her products and sweetsAs you can see, I tried some new stuff like the chips and Pocky sticks. I got a cortado shot which should keep me going the rest of the day!!The orange cranberry scone was so delicious (not too hard) and it paired well with the coffee. The hot and spicy shrimp chips are yummy; no hint of shrimp or shrimpy taste just flavorfulGot the whole bean coffee from Geva coffee in Houston The spicy seafood noodle soup I'm sure will be tasty and I hope it really is spicyOatmeal raisin cookie is great, very flavorful. 2 macarons lemon and nutella, BOTH really good. This place ROCKS. Support local. Buy local"

Harolds Chicken Shack

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (92)

"A flashback.... "Taste of Chicago" Southside created and Southsider eating this Harold's Chicken Crispy Juicy Chicken with Original Recipe Ingredients plus the tasty fries with homemade BBQ sauce!! In a basket on top of a sliced white piece of bread ( Originally Wonderbread) made on the Southeast side of the City!! This tasty experience brought back lotsa memories of my hometown & getting grub at all times of the day and night Plenty of other viddles and goodies to get from here. Just a note, I came here on a Tuesday and this Special comes with Dark Meat Leg and Thigh plus Fries n bread with a 20 minute wait time Worth the wait or call ahead to place your order or phone app?? Small set-up with limited seating.....but with lotsa Chicago Memorabilia and Great Photos all over the place and even on the tables!! Niceeeeeeeee touch Familiar flavors with nostalgic feel to the Shacks of Harold's!! I enjoyed every bite and ate it all up!! Definitely will be back again to get My Chicago Food Fix"

Kravin' Fruit Bar

★★★★☆ 4.1 (265) • $

"Cute decor, clean space, and friendly staff. We came here after dinner looking for sweets. They had sweet banana chips, Boba, and shaved ice with fruit and ice cream. We had the shaved ice with fruit and ice cream, and it hit the spot. My friend bought the banana chips and let me tell you they're addictive! If you're looking for a sweet drink or a sweet treat i recommend you try this place!"

Jacos BBQ

★★★★☆ 4.3 (12)

"I kept seeing this place on a FB group, so I took that as a sign to give it try on Saturday.OMG the brisket and ribs were both tender, moist, and flavorful!! You know it's good when bbq sauce messes up the flavor. Who needs sauce when the flavor holds on its own?!?!The dirty rice was savory. I wasn't a fan of the potato salad, but that's only bcz of personal preference in liking mine more like deviled eggs. Overall, it's pretty darn good enough to try again today (Monday) for lunch. But this time I'm guna try the chicken and sausage, mac'n chz and green beans."

Milk Mustache

★★★★★ 4.5 (39)

"So glad that we have a Milk Mustache location in town now! They have 10 flavors, 6 regular and 4 seasonal. As soon as you walk in it is like you entered cookie heaven - smells amazing and your eyes bulge at the sight of these huge cookies! Some are stuffed with fillings like Nutella or marshmallow while others are all cookie dough. Whichever way you go, they are all delicious. I recommend getting a 4 pack (or more!) to sample a few! Great service, easy parking."

Cloud 10 Creamery

★★★★☆ 4.1 (7)

Killer Noodle

★★★★☆ 4.1 (282) • $$

"Killer Noodle Tsujita is a ramen restaurant in the Heights neighborhood of Houston, Texas. The concept was started by Takehiro Tsujita who had success in Tokyo, Japan with his restaurant, Seito Masamune Tantanmen Tsujita, in 2003 and has since expanded to 18 restaurants across Japan. Tsujita wanted to bring forth a new ramen into the American community that would not be as heavy in comparison with their popular tsukemen soup (something even children could enjoy). He came up with "Killer Noodle Tsujita" in Los Angeles, California in 2017. Killer Noodle Tsujita features a style of ramen called tan tan men, which is Chinese in origin. The restaurant's signature dishes incorporate dan dan noodles with peanut butter, sesame, and Sichuan spice in the broth. It's definitely a unique style of ramen, but they also have the classics like Tonkatsu, Miso, and Chicken ramen.The restaurant itself has a private parking lot and multiple tables inside with a bar. They even have a section dedicated to toy claw machines where you can spend a dollar per chance to win![RAMEN]+Tokyo (signature dan dan - chicken/pork broth, chili oil, Sichuan peppercorn, sesame sauce, peanut butter, vinegar, white sesame, beansprout, nikumiso, cashew, green onion, and soft boiled egg) for $15.50 - From first sip of the broth, I tasted spice, peanut butter, and sesame. This was a new experience for me. Although I enjoyed it, I would prefer a classic ramen. - 4/5Overall, Killer Noodle Tsujita was a new type of ramen experience for me. Personally, I have never tried peanut butter in my ramen broth, but it was surprisingly pretty good. I do prefer classic ramen, but I would still recommend the experience to others if they wanted to mix things up!"

Crumbl - Towne Lake

★★★★☆ 3.9 (98)

"Always a great experience. This location is fast, fresh & great. You can order on these iPads in the wall and in no time your order is processed and ready. Always a great experience here."

District 7 Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (48) • $$

"Review # 38.Located in the tunnels right under the Kinder-Morgan building. There are stairs right when you walk in the building and it's located right there. Only open for lunch. We arrived at 11:30 and the line was out the door. I was worried it was going to take forever but the line moved quick and we were served very fast being the amount of people there. We were out by 12:10. This is second time eating at District 7, but first time at this location. Just like the the other location the food did no disappoint!!! I ordered the pesto shrimp salad and it was delicious and filling. My friend ordered the burger and he raved about it!! Success!!! I can't imagine what the line is like at noon. Maybe there is another review about it. My friend who works downtown who came with me just loved it and he said he will be back!"

Wanna's Cakes

★★★★★ 5 (3)

"Delicious. The carrot cake cupcakes were delicious. The icing was the best icing I've had. Everyone raved about how moist and fresh the cupcakes tasted. The decoration was perfect. Very happy. I'd love to get more in the future. Not to mention she delivered on a Sunday! That was amazing and so convenient. Very fast communication and great prices."

Fat Boy's Pizza - Richmond

★★★★☆ 3.7 (93) • $$

"We'd been anxious to try this place, drawn in by the name, ever since we saw the coming soon sign and finally got the chance to check out it over the weekend. Walking in, we were quite unimpressed. It is a mediocre space consisting of three wooden seat booths, about 15 very small tables, and a huge bar that opens to the outdoor seating area. There is the option of ordering a cheese pizza with your choice of toppings or choosing from the carousels of already made pizza slices, which are huge. I chose a 16" pizza with hamburger, loaded waffle fries, a slice with a basket of waffle fries, garlic knots, and an order of the Fat Yays (to go). Short and sweet, we had to pull two of the tables in order to be able to get everything we ordered to fit, the pizza reminded me of school pizza, which might be good thing for after the club on Bourbon Street, but for sober on a Saturday, it was just wrong! The waffle fries were not very good, tasting like they were overcooked and soaked in oil - the cheese and bacon didn't really save them either. Lastly, I'll stick to getting my beignets from my favorite do-nut shop or a Cajun restaurant, because the Yays made me want to boo!The Garlic Knots with marinara sauce for dipping was the highlight for me!We came, we saw, we did. Nuff said."

Michael's Cookie Jar

★★★★☆ 4.4 (145) • $$

"I had never heard of Michael's Cookie Jar until one of our coworkers brought a box in for one of our managers who was celebrating her birthday this month. She shared her box of goodies with us from her birthday fairy (a tradition where we draw names and guess who decorated our office and gave gifts during our birthday).Some of the cookies in the box were chocolate chunk and double chocolate chunk. I love a good chocolate chip cookie, so I chose that one. Since they use real butter and fresh eggs, it tastes homemade. I loved the large chunks of chocolate because you'll never take a bite or break a piece without chocolate in it. The cookie itself is not too small/large or thin/thick like other cookie establishments. It was the perfect ratio and size. I prefer these over Crumble and Tiny's. There are two locations - West U and downtown at the Pennzoil tower tunnel. They have 12 flavors and sometimes a seasonal one. I want to try their snickerdoodle, toffee pecan, pecan chocolate chunk, white chocolate macadamia, and peanut butter. Aside from cookies, they also make cookie cakes, walnut brownies, and decorate sugar cookies for special occasions and holidays."

Shakkar Cravings

★★★★★ 5 (1)

"Rida makes the best desserts!!! I've ordered twice from her for a couple of parties that I hosted and I can't wait for the next time I can use these desserts. All of the cake cups are made with so much care. My favorite flavor is the Ras malai cake cups! Her cakes are so rich and moist which makes them so addicting. I highly recommend Shakkar Cravings for any dessert needs!"

Gypsy Coffee and Cream

★★★★★ 4.6 (20)

"Super cute spot, it was actually called Farmhouse Coffee and Cream. I loved the decor, very interesting, warm, and inviting. I had the fruity chicken salad on toasted wheat bread. It came with chips, pickles, lettuce, and tomato. I also got a mocha and it was delicious."

100 Grand Bar and Grill

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (18)

"This is a place that you go to enjoy delicious, seasoned, fresh food and fabulous drinks. The menu is small but you will definitely find something that catches your eye. I am pescatarian so I enjoyed the fried shrimp and fries and boy were they seasoned. The atmosphere is amazing. The DJ was playing all my favorites. I had to stop myself from getting up and dancing. Everything was on point. If you like hookah then this is your place. Whether you are with friends, family, or a date. You will have a good time."

Karma Kolache

★★★★☆ 4.2 (138) • $$

"DID SOMEONE SAY PEPPERONI PIZZA KOLACHE???Great little Kolache spot! Stopped here to buy my grandson some breakfast before dropping him off to school. I checked in on Yelp and received a free donut and boy was my grandson happy about that, lol! He ordered a plain beef Kolache with no cheese as if he knew what he was doing. I asked him "how do you know what you want right away? You haven't looked at all the other choices." He said, "Pawpaw brings me here for breakfast sometimes before taking me to school." I was like, "ohhh I see!" Originally, I was only here for my grandson until I scanned the array of Kolache sandwiches behind the counter and I was like, "Whoah! I think I want a Kolache too!" I'm not a breakfast person during the week so this was an extremely tempting situation for me, and one that I could not resist! I succumbed to the rich buttery aroma that was hovering in the atmosphere! I was so lost as I attempted to choose just one Kolache. This task proved to be a difficult one. In the end, I settled for a plain beef Kolache with no cheese because my grandson says that it's great! He was correct! I enjoyed it a little too much. Instead of eating it, I scarfed it down as if I was starving, lol. However, I was able to taste the rich robust and sweet buttery flavor of the croissant which tasted really great with the flavor of the beef sausage. What a great mixture of infused flavors! Next time, and yes there's definitely going to be a next-time, I'm going to try a different Kolache. Maybe, I'll try the brisket Kolache, or maybe the boudin Kolache, or maybe the Philly Cheesesteak Kolache, or maybe the cheeseburger Kolache, or maybe the Chicken Feta Cheese Kolache, or maybe the PEPPERONI PIZZA KOLACHE! Didn't I tell ya? It's no easy task when it should be, lol. There's an extensive selection which makes it difficult but it's worth it! Overall, this establishment is really nice! They are open as early as 6:00 am during the week and it seems like it can get pretty busy as there was a slight line when my son and I arrived around 6:30 am. Customer service is good. It's not anything special to brag about but it's good. Highly recommended!"

Alpha Dessert Juice Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.9 (81)

Heaven in a Jar

★★★★☆ 4.4 (140) • $$

"My daughter loved it and that's what important. I ordered her the Oreo cookie milkshake and the strawberry cheesecake dessert. The milkshake only comes in a jar if you get the smaller one and it's plastic. The large milkshake comes in a regular clear cup. The desserts come in nice little glass jars. The shop was nice and clean and service was friendly. The shake was picture ready and the appearance made it that much better. I would recommend this shop if your a fan of sweets"

Cupcake and a Smile

★★★★★ 4.7 (38) • $

"2 words : freakin yummy. I was heading to pick up lunch next door at pier 36 and was craving cupcakes. I pulled up to the shopping Ctr and looked up and LO and behold I parked in front of this little cupcake shop. It was fate. I picked up a pancake bacon cupcake, coconut walnut cupcake, a cc cookies cupcake ($3 each) and a cowgirl (nuts with coconut) cookie $1.99. A dozen cupcakes is $30. Ate the big cookie on the way home. Perfection. Not too sweet and crispy outside chewy inside. The cupcakes were kinda small but were so very very tasty. Sweet but flavorful. The other flavors were the classic strawberry, chocolate, wedding cake, red velvet but I like to try unique flavors. I'd def be back!"

Crumbl - Bellaire

★★★★☆ 4.2 (234)

"I always order ahead on the app and it's a smooth and simple process! Walk in and the cookies are ready within a minute or two. Fresh and I get to watch them decorate my order!A clean and crisp atmosphere in here always. Love the vanilla crumb cake cookie I had here!"

La Viva

★★★★★ 4.5 (23)

"wow. service was unbelievable! we had the happy hour margaritas and the seven layer dip. we thought we couldn't eat anymore, but the crispy tacos kept calling to us. I hate crispy tacos that fall apart, are super greasy, or have so much stuff on them that you can't take a bite. These were perfect. No grease, slightly spiced, and just enough toppings that i could eat them without having to get a fork or spoon to finish them. Charros were very nice too!Only drawback (and it's just a little one), they kept pushing us to order and move on, I guess cause there was a line. I wanted to relax and slowly sip my margarita but I kept being asked every 3-5 minutes if we could order. Ended up leaving part of my drink because they cleared my table of chips and stuff and gave us the check before I was finished with my drink. Maybe I need to sit at the bar next time"

Churrohouse

★★★★☆ 4 (157) • $$

"The name of this restaurant is Churrohouse. I'm not sure when they changed names but that's it's name now. I visited over the weekend for a dessert and ordered the chocolate almond churro for $5.25. It took them less than 10 minutes to make it.That churro was oh so good! Very delicious and I will return with maybe some ice cream to add to it. They also serve snack foods."

Whopy Cooky

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (15)

"Perfect chocolate chip cookie is found here! The owners are warm and friendly. Definitely coming back, maybe even tomorrow."

Tree House Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.9 (118) • $

"What a fantastic find!!!! If you're driving by, you'll miss it! You see the treehouse, but not the restaurant! Which is the best part!! You walk down a path through the trees and come across the restaurant! There are tortoises on either side of the bridge you have to cross to go inside! We were greeted by friendly staff when we walked in! Despite the heat of summer, we chose to sit outside due to the fans! All the trees helped to block the sun, so we were fine! Plus my little girl got to run around and watch the turtles walk around! Our waitress was very attentive and did not rush us! They had huge mimosas!! We decided to split the blue burger! Tons of flavor and plenty of food for 2! My daughter loved the grilled cheese!! If you've been thinking about stopping, stop!! It's a precious place with lots of options!!! Hope this review gets seen and you get to experience this gem!!"
