Exodus is a beautiful restaurant with excellent service and delicious food. We started off with Charred Cauliflower (ate every bit of it hence no picture)! I got the Tuna Tower and it was not only picturesque when presented, but absolutely perfect! Also Dave's Mushroom Swiss Burger and Fries was thoroughly enjoyed! I can't wait to return to sample my way through their creative menu - there is such a lovely variety! read more

Exodus is a great place for amazing food! Been wanting to give this a try, so went on a weekday night. It was not crowded- I counted 18 customers. Restaurant has both tables and booths and noise was nonexistent. We ordered the crab cake (it's two pieces) and it had a Texas flair with black beans and corn adornments with a slight jalapeño kick. It was delicious. One entree was the Leslie chicken with pasta. Very tasty and very creamy. Another entree was the pistachio crusted sea bass served over a bed of creamy risotto. It was cooked perfectly and was devine. The table shared the grilled mushrooms and onions which was very good. Will we go back? Without a doubt. read more

What stood out to me was the flexibility and service. I asked to swap the chicken for salmon on my salad and they didn't hesitate, they just made it happen. The salmon was cooked perfectly, which made the whole dish. It also stood out that the environment felt easy and welcoming. My son enjoyed his meal, I enjoyed mine, and it was just a smooth, no-stress dinner. read more

Finally went to Exodus. It was raining sideways on a Sat night. Really enjoyed it. Great food, staff and place. Yes is is a steak house in a strip mall but when you step inside it takes a moment or two and then you get into the place. It's is marketed as a steak house and I did have steak but it more like a mini cheese cake factory menu. They have steak, lamb, fish, sashimi, sushi rolls, pasta and burgers. I had cucumber asian salad which was great and then filet with peppercorn sauce and wife had lamb. Both came with very freshly grilled veggies and mash potatoes. The steak was cooked to order and well seasoned. The asparagus was not over cooked tender but still had some crunch. We had some wine and then liked it so much we had chocolate cake and some after dinner drinks. They have a very solid bar tender and I have supplied a photo of the old fashion. I think you have adjust your brian a bit as we did spend some money - but no less or more than if we have visited Saltgrass or gone to Pappasito's or any big chain and ate like kings. So it's just not what you expect in a strip mall off Brasewood- but in a very good way. They have a large sushi selection and dedicated small sushi chef station. I am going to go that route next time. We will be back and bring friends. They also had live jazz. read more

This restaurant is very unassuming from the outside as it's a part of this small plaza and tucked in between all these other small shops. The inside is quite small with a mixture of booths and tables, each with a white tablecloth covering the table and cushioned seats. There is a bar and a small performing area where there are 2 gentlemen playing live music throughout the night (while a nice touch, it did get a little loud during the meal where it was hard to hear the person next to you). It was a Saturday night at 7 pm and when we came, there were only 2 tables and a few seats at the bar occupied and only 1 other couple came after us in the 2 hours we were there. I'm not sure how the business looks on other days but we hoped it wasn't always this empty because we worried about the restaurant surviving. The service was exceptional - Russ was such a pleasure and he had a very natural way of explaining things well and even gave us a free plate of pita & humus since it was our first time dining here. The menu had an interesting mix of sushi and American food. The calamari was crispy but we wished the marinara sauce was a little more thick so that it could be more easily scooped by the calamari. My boyfriend really enjoyed his burger (couldn't stop thinking about it even 2 hrs later) and the steak fries were well seasoned, cooked perfectly, and not too thick of slices. I opted for the seafood risotto which came with shrimp, clams, mussels, & soft shell crab. The shrimp was a little too blackened, there was barely any meat in the crab, and some of the shells of the mussels were broken where there were bits of broken pieces in some of my bites of risotto. My parents found both their bolognese and chicken fettuccine to be a little too salty. All in all, the food was decent and the service was quick and attentive - would give it more of a 3.5/5 if I had the chance. read more

AMAZING times 2. This little gem in Bellaire has made quite an impression on our group. We recently had a Galentines dinner there and they did not disappoint. James was our server and let me tell you he made our evening so enjoyable. He had a large area to cover but he made us feel like we were his only table. Great job to the staff who welcomed us with open arms and let us celebrate in style. Service was great Food was impressive and don't even get us started about the desserts. Chef came out to our table and we let him know it was delicious. They even allowed us to decorate our table with themed items and all the extras. We had a game of "share our favorites" and then we had dessert. We don't live close but it was sooo worth the trip. We will be back for sure. Great job to James and all the staff at Exodus..... you are doing it right read more

Came here for a birthday. Parking is plentiful and free. When I walked in I was hit with an unpleasant smell that usually accompanies sushi places which was confusing because I didnt understand where the sushi came in. The menu is a smorgasbord of food types including sushi, burgers and pasta. My burger was delicious and I was excited to receive true steak fries even though they were cold. My food was served on a platter in the shape of Texas which was unique but also slightly impractical to eat on. The Mac n cheese was creamy and delicious but the mushroom risotto was gelatinous and unpleasant. All in all the service, Mac n cheese and burger were good (I didnt try the sushi) though I would recommend doing something about the sour smell and maybe update the interior. (The waiter was also really sweaty which was odd and probably unsanitary) read more

My husband & I were traveling thru Houston and found this wonderful restaurant.

My husband and I stopped in to give this a place a try since it's close to home and folks on ND recommend it. This place is a hidden gem and was amazing! My husband is a chef and is hard to please. But he was impressed with the food. We had calamari, short rib tacos, the ceviche - which was absolutely fantastic, and a risotto seafood dish, which was top notch. The presentation of the dishes was impressive. James our server was outstanding! He made the whole dining experience so enjoyable. We'll be back! read more

Salmon was delicious. Cooked well - to perfection. Had the spinach as a side in lieu of the bok choy. My friend had the chicken fried steak and was very pleased with it. Service was excellent. James was super attentive. I loved the ambiance. They did a really good job in creating a very intimate atmosphere but still very welcoming for everyone. Parking is an extra plus because it is located in a strip mall. We had an early dinner so it was not crowded which was perfect. read more

(5/5) - An Unforgettable Hidden Gem! What an experience!! From the moment we walked in the door until the moment we left, this place delivered pure magic. As soon as we stepped inside, the owner greeted us with a huge smile and said, "Reservation for Blair?" - instant VIP vibes that made us feel like regulars on our very first visit. We hadn't even settled in before the chef himself swung by our table with a complimentary appetizer: fresh, house-made Pita Bread & Hummus that isn't even on the menu. Warm, fluffy pita straight from the oven paired with the creamiest, garlicky hummus I've ever had - it was AMAZING and set the tone for everything to come. The menu is a glorious mash-up of comfort classics, smoky BBQ twists, and even sushi (!!), and every single dish blew us away: * Smoked Brisket Bolognese - Tender, slow-smoked brisket in a rich, meaty sauce draped over al dente pasta. The smoky depth took this Italian staple to another universe. * Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo - Silky, garlicky cream sauce clinging to perfectly cooked noodles with juicy grilled chicken. Pure comfort food heaven. * Leslie's Monterrey Chicken - Whoever Leslie is, she's a genius. Grilled chicken smothered in melted cheese, crisp bacon, and just the right kick of peppers. Juicy, flavorful, and downright addictive. * Chicken Fried Steak - Golden, crispy crust giving way to fork-tender steak swimming in creamy pepper gravy. Southern perfection on a plate. * Red Dragon Sushi Roll (shared with my son) - Phenomenal! Spicy tuna, crisp tempura bits, and that perfect drizzle of eel sauce and sriracha mayo. Fresh, balanced, and a total surprise standout on a non-sushi-focused menu. Everything was made fresh in-house, you could taste the love and attention in every bite. The owner and chef checking in personally made the night feel special, not just another dinner out. If you're anywhere near this spot, RUN don't walk. This is the kind of family-run gem that reminds you why dining out can still be an absolute joy. We're already planning our next visit - thank you for an incredible evening! (Pro tip: Make a reservation - this place deserves to be packed every night!) read more

Had heard great things about Exodus so had to check it out! We went for a casual family Friday dinner. The ambiance is chill, comfortable, great energy as well visually appealing. Our waiter James made our experience even more enjoyable with his fun playful spirit and excitement in the menu! He gave us great recommendations on the extensive and eclictic menu. So we started with carne asada fries, chargrilled cauliflower along with the California roll and spider roll. Every dish was delicious but the chargrilled cauliflower can we talk about this! Perfectly chargrilled cauliflower on a bed of creamy hummus drizzled with cranberries and chimichurri sauce ! Highly recommend!! So full of flavors!! For main dishes we had the smoked brisket bolognese, sashimi, the Branzino special, yellow tail sashimi, the maya sandwich and last but not least the pistachio crusted sea bass. All of the entrees were outstanding and full of flavors! The portions were ample. The presentations of the dishes added to our experience. We did share a piece of the pecan pie was so good they should push them at thanksgiving! All and all this new neighborhood bar and grill is a do not miss! I understand they also have a nice happy hour!! I personally cannot wait to go back and try new dishes along with the cauliflower read more

Returned to have sushi-only dinner after my first experience with this hidden gem. We had the Big Bruce, Oved and Spicy Tuna Croquettes. I canst say enough about how outstanding the food was.

Highly recommended. read more

In every sense, a quality restaurant. Menu selection, ingredients, presentation, and level of service are all of five star quality. It's such a pleasure to have this quality available in a neighborhood restaurant, without having to drive on cow trails called streets across town. It's interesting to note and question that reviews here so far are all five star and one star. Love and hate it seems. What kind of fervor would drive this? Not likely the food. read more

This new restaurant was one we wanted to try, and we were not disappointed. The food was outstanding, the service friendly and serving portions were quite large. The menu was extraordinarily diverse (sushi, pastas, steaks, seafood, soups, burgers, deli sandwiches, etc., etc.) and we're not sure how the kitchen will deal with such a large number of items in the long term, but our order was well-prepared, served hot and was delicious. We had the Exodus Gumbo, Pecan Texas Fried Chicken, the Chicken Dayanis and Carrot Cake, and all were outstanding. With so many options we DIDN'T try, we'll definitely be back. read more

Another amazing meal at Exodus! Huge shoutout to Russell for taking such great care of our group of 8.

11/10, amazing place. Would recommend this to anyone coming from out of town or even locals. The owner is so nice and the Chef curated the menu himself. Chef was so kind and came to offer us hummus and pita (it was SO GOOD). The ambiance is amazing as well, it was a saturday night so i'm not sure how often they do this, but they had someone playing the guitar the entire time (quietly, don't worry) which set the vibe for sure. Would love to come here again and I would for sure recommend it to anyone!!! read more

We had an great meal at Exodus Bar and Grill! This was our first visit and we will head back soon. The atmosphere was very comfortable and casual. It is rare to read a menu and find too many great sounding dishes. They have a large sushi menu. We started with one of the best spinach and artichoke dips. My burger was the best in town. Are you sitting down? It was Angus beef, topped with beef bacon, fried egg, and cheddar cheese on a pretzel bun! I chose onion rings as my side. I am pretty sure they were homemade. My wife's pecan crusted chicken breast was outstanding. Situated at Braeswood and Chimney Rock in Meyerland, it is conveniently located with lots of free parking. read more

If you're looking for a spot in Meyerland that offers a little bit of everything; good food, warm vibes, and solid service, Exodus Bar and Grill is a superb pick. Their menu is refreshingly diverse: from dry-aged ribeyes to fresh seafood, sushi rolls, gourmet burgers, and even house-smoked brisket. The ambiance hits the sweet-spot between rustic and refined. Wood-tone decor, cozy booths, white linens on some tables, and a comfortable, welcoming energy. Russell, our waiter was friendly, attentive, helpful with the menu. We never felt rushed, allowing meals to linger and conversations to flow. He also sings a rendition of Happy Birthday in Italian. Whether you swing by for a casual lunch, a family dinner, or a celebratory evening out there's something for everyone. If you haven't tried it yet, I strongly recommend you do. This has become our go to restaurant for special occasions. I forgot to mention the full service bar. read more
