    Steak and chicken kebabs
    Sarah M.

    I was really excited to finally try Local Table today. When you walk in, the restaurant has a very industrial vibe with concrete floors and exposed brick walls. It's huge--definitely big enough to host multiple large parties at once--and the bar area is equally impressive. My dad and I chose to sit outside, and it was a very enjoyable experience. We ordered the goat cheese spread with bacon jam (highly recommend) along with the kebabs. Everything was fresh and flavorful, and it was refreshing to eat somewhere that clearly cares about the quality of their produce the same way you do at home. Service was a little slow, especially considering it was after lunchtime and the restaurant wasn't busy, but honestly, the food was good enough that the mediocre service didn't take away from the experience. I'd definitely come back--maybe next time to sit at the bar for happy hour. The environment is fun and relaxed, and it's a big bonus that your fur babies are welcome. It's exciting to finally have a dog-friendly spot like this in Houston.

    Eggs Benedict - prosciutto
    Cynthia E.

    Had a great experience at Local Table! The service was great - our server came around multiple times even after he brought the food to check on us. They have a great menu - health conscious options along with brunch/lunch options. I ended up getting the prosciutto Benedict. Eggs Benedict is one of my favorite meals so I decided to get that. They put the eggs on this massive Texas toast like bread. To be honest it was a bit much but the bread was well seasoned. The prosciutto was also delicious - almost like bacon though, but I guess there's different types and they fried it so it was pretty thick and meaty. Good experience and would love to try another menu item!

    Veggie burger

    After wanting to try Local Table for a while, finally went in for a bite. My first impression as I walked in was they did a nice job with the dining room. Seating area was inviting, the bar was tempting me for a drink even though it was pretty early, and the kitchen was showcased ( they even have a pizza oven). We were promptly greeted and seated, all employees were super nice. Decided to try a veggie burger after having too much meat over the Memorial Day weekend. It had avocado and pico de gallo, which I really liked. The fries were also pretty good. Kids also had burgers, and they were devoured within 5 minutes so I guess they liked them :). Would like to go back and try their pizza to see what that's all about!

    Nice option with a big menu and enough variety that anyone should be able to meet their taste/any dietary restrictions. Fresh prep so the quality stands out. We were here for lunch on a Friday and were able to be easily seated. Staff was friendly, efficient, and attentive. I opted for their gyro plate and the portion was way more than generous - delicious and filling. Parking - private, shared strip center lot

    Cast-iron Spinach Artichoke Dip Tiramisu Martini
    Anna M.

    A new Houston favorite for when I visit! Menu had plenty of great options, we wanted to get everything. Staff was very friendly and chill. Restaurant was clean physically and aesthetically. We had the Tiramisu Martini that was a spinoff of an espresso martini but more sweet and had no coffee in it. The artichoke dip was a perfect amount for two. We had the Lemon Pasta with grilled chicken as an entree. The flavor was rich and the chicken was moist. Not super seasoned but balanced well with the lemon and sun dried tomato pairing. A very great experience overall!

    Came in to meet some old friends for breakfast. The inside is very clean and has lots of seating as well as a full bar. The patio is nice as well and covered. We sat outside but when the sun got too strong the staff as nice enough to move our whole party inside. Service was great and the food was delicious. I ordered the chicken biscuit Benedict and it comes with some sort of sauce that I didn't really like but everyone else's food was perfect. Would definitely recommend coming here to grab brunch.

    Local's Kabob Plate (combo)
    Tyler H.

    ***01/18/2025 Only*** We frequently visit this restaurant, I mean almost on a weekly basis and service has always been superior. Tonight was definitely an off night. The place only had about 25% of the tables sat but our server didn't bother to check in. There was a table on the other side of the half wall (right next to us) that must have been a previous employee as a few of the servers popped over to chat with them. But our server, she just stood there and talked, talked, talked. Never once checked how our food was, never once asked for a refill (we did get a refill, because I asked someone else - but I could have definitely used a 3rd...). And after sitting with our plates pushed out to the edge of the table to indicate we were done eating, after about 7ish minutes we just walked to the host stand and the manager grabbed our check. Again, usually I am 5/5 with this spot as the food is amazing and service has always been spectacular, but tonight was definitely a miss. And it was just disappointing because we could literally make eye contact with our server while she chatted up this other table without even coming over to check on us or ask if we needed anything. Will we go back? Of course! But was very disappointed tonight.

    Bacon jam club sandwich with fruit cup
    Leena C.

    Local. Met some friends for lunch and it was a great choice. It was a nice enough day to sit outside (and I'm not an outside sitting person bc of allergies). Ordered the bacon jam club sandwich with fruit cup instead of chips. I was interested in the bacon jam and it added a nice flavor to the club. It was slightly toasted so it was crisp and tender which is exactly how I like mine. Fruit was fresh. The service was spot on. Our server was friendly and she gave great suggestions and overall made the brunch experience even better. Def would come back and try some of the other menu items.

    Lemon pasta
    bec s.

    Always get the lemon pasta but wish they could cut back on the crushed red pepper. It's a little hot to sit on patio with a very spicy dish! Service is great. Atmosphere is nice sitting on the patio.

    Took a Valentine special to go for my wife that's in bed..and yall really made it special..had a good drink..while I waited..Thank you..

    Love this restaurant, and have enjoyed the many things I've tried from the menu - several reviews show that...but the Asian Chicken Salad...is not a repeat. Nice presentation, but there is too much dressing on the salad, making everything limp. With the spiciness of the dressing, makes it almost not enjoyable. And the chicken?? What exactly is this? It's pressed and dry, as if from a can, and does not taste like chicken. Waitstaff were friendly and great as always.

    Joined my girl friends for a lunch midweek. Friendly hostess and waiter. Great choice of items on the menu. I went with the lemon pasta thanks to yelp reviews. Great flavor and perfect for a lunch. I didn't add protein but chicken and shrimp were a choice. I also sipped in a blueberry cocktail- it was not too strong and accompanied the lemon pasta well. Huge space. Will return with the girls for sure!

    My family and I had heard about this place before in passing but we finally decided to give them a…read moretry. First off, this is NOT a restaurant. It's a one-man show. You order online hosted by hot plate and pick up at your scheduled time/date at their house. I ordered it but someone else picked up around 2 hours later. You get an automated text when it's ready and you text when you're there. For special requests, you can call/text the number as well; he was pretty helpful and responsive and mentioned to my brother in law that he personally made sure everything had no alliums at pick up. As a note: my family consists of allium-free vegetarians (with one vegan) so we asked ahead of time what our options were before we went for it. He (I really should have gotten his name) gave us a list of rolls that could be made allium free and we chose from them so you could say they do have an allium free menu upon request. We pretty much got almost everything on his list. For 5 adults, we ordered a total of 10 rolls: LOW-KEY LOKI (2) CLASSIC SPICY TUNAH (2) NIKCO ROCK N ROLL SPICY MAMI, HOT TAMALE SPICY DRAGON FIRECRACKER (2) When we opened the boxes, it turns out that he included an extra roll of SPICY MAMI, HOT TAMALE as well as a small container of seaweed salad which I thought was really nice of him! Or maybe we spent too much or there's some buy 10 rolls get 1 free promotion I was unaware of, haha. It was an unexpected surprise. I also have 2 kids but one has multiple food allergies and the other one is picky. She wanted a sweet potato roll, but it's not on the menu so we rolled up some seaweed rice rolls for them ahead of time so they weren't left out. I didn't bring up my kids because we wanted to ease in with the allium free request and go from there. Plus, one of the food allergens is avocado and that was found in almost every roll. On that note, there's an option to make it gluten-free on each item's page, which is pretty awesome. There's also an option to use soy paper instead of seaweed and to add extra ingredients at additional cost. My family shared everything so my plate was a mix and I honestly lost track of what I was eating at the time for personal notes. But honestly? Everything was delicious. Sushi was the last thing I gave up before becoming vegetarian and I'm picky with the sushi I eat now. These are very good and I must say if I lived in Houston, I'd order again. I do wish there was a place to sit or picnic nearby, but this worked as well. (We all congregated at a house.) There was one roll that definitely had a kick to it. Oddly enough, SPICY MAMI was not it. My nose tends to run with spicy food and I didn't get to that point but it was close after that one spicy piece. Overall, a great experience. Our rolls were $8 to $17 each, 8 pieces per roll. It was around $27.20 per person before tips and tax/fees from hot plate ($7.35). They were nicely packed complete with edible orchid flowers, and personal cups of ginger and wasabi as well as chopsticks and soy sauce packets. We finished everything. This certainly wasn't cheap but when is sushi affordable enough to be a daily thing? I do wish there weren't service fees added on top, but I guess the platform needs support too. Delicious and something to try whether or not you're vegan. I hope to order again our next time in town. Many thanks to the chef for the excellent experience and his help!

They had the same menu items and I noticed the prices increased since I last been. The cashier was a bit timid, he talked so low but he was as helpful as he could be. The ambiance is exactly the same. It's intimate and small, cool for a private or solo outing. I would say the music was up a bit louder than expected but it was cool. Now shall we????? The food. Cali ($13) : 4/10 - simply put. No flavor. Fried well though. Not the same. Lil Red BBQ ($12) - 8/10 - The jackfruit could've been seasoned more but the texture was great. My girlfriend liked how soft the bread was also. The BBQ was also good. Notyo Salad ($13) -8.5/10 - This was the most consistent item on the menu. The only thing I can say about it was that it needed more sauce to cover the amount of arugula and micro greens that came on it. But y'all ITS FLAVORFUL. The lime flavor with the avocado. It's MUAAAAHHHHH :* Sweet Potato Fries ($3/each) - 8.5/10 - Fried well. Good portion for price. Left us feeling light. My rating... this is an affordable and great health spot. If you're paying attention they inform people about their needs, ingredients included in the meals, and what the benefits are. If you are new to vegan food this is a great start.

The bathroom area was atrocious and smelled that way too. Service was was A1, the guy taking our order was also cooking so for him to had been busy and taking orders, the smile he gave was reassuring he could handle himself. He also made sure he gave me the biggest piece of cake Shoutout to him for that!!!! Now what y'all are really waiting for.... The food review. We ordered: Shroom Tacos (3) - 8.5/10 because they skimpy. It came with chopped white onions and limes on the side. The problem was there was an upcharge for oyster mushrooms but wasn't filled up with the mushrooms. I shouldn't bite into a taco and end up with just tortilla. And the limes were dry. However, the flavor of the tacos were A1. Chicken Chikn Alfredo sub Oyster Mushrooms- 7.5/10 because NO EXPLOSION OF FLAVOR. It was INSIPID. However, the noodles were cooked well, sauce was saucin' and they didn't skimp on the mushrooms in this dish. BUT they could've gave more pasta as a whole, it really wasn't much in there. Philly Steak Sub sub Oyster Mushrooms with KORNY SAUCE- 7/10. It lacked flavor AND there was barely enough mushrooms for how big the sandwich bread was. There was plenty onions and peppers which were cooked well but that's not what we were looking forward to. In addition, we couldn't even tell whether there was KORNY sauce added to it or not. Cookies and Cream Milkshake- 7/10. It was pretty good. Nothing special. Had a good consistency and flavor. German Chocolate Cake- 5.5/10. The cake itself was cooked well and really good. The icing which was coconut and something else wasn't very appetizing or appealing nor was it sweet. It was cold but we prefer our cakes room temperature. Overall, we would go back for the shroom tacos and probably try something else. They did have a very extensive menu. So I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others to try for themselves.

    We had passed by this place a few times and finally decided to give it a try. I almost let the Yelp…read morereviews discourage me, but as someone who enjoys sharing honest feedback, I wanted to experience it for myself. I'm visiting from Florida on a work trip, so I'll keep it brief. The interior could use some updated furniture, but honestly, it didn't take away from the experience. The AC worked well, and it was comfortable inside. The concrete floors might come across as "unfinished" or even dirty at first glance, but it felt more like part of the place's hip, industrial vibe. It's an older building with plenty of character. The person who took our order was very friendly and offered great recommendations. We tried the steak tacos, okra bites, and taquitos and everything was absolutely delicious. Don't let the negative reviews steer you away. We're glad we gave it a shot, it was definitely worth it!!!!

    Delicious food and great service! I just finished a satisfying Easter Sunday lunch here that…read moreconsisted of "chicken" tenders, greens, Mac n cheese, and dirty rice. The tenders where juicy on the inside and nice & crispy on the outside. Dipped them & the Buffalo and special sauces and it couldn't get any better. Even without sauce the tenders were seasoned to perfection. The vegan mac n cheese was also SO good. Tasted very cheesy & creamy. The dirty rice was the perfect texture and seasoned just right with all the right herbs and spices. I can't decide if l liked the Mac n cheese or dirty rice better. The greens were also quite good, with a good balance of sugar, salt & vinegar. Had the hibiscus limeade to wash it all down which was very thirst quenching with just the right amount of sweetness. My friend had the fish (oyster mushroom), Mac n cheese and French toast and loved her food as well. The service was great bc the young lady who helped us was super friendly and took her time to answer any and all questions we had and to make great recommendations. I also found out from her that the Jank sauce owner lives in my hometown. Looking forward to purchasing the sauce so I can try it out the next time I visit my local HEB. Thanks for the delicious Easter Sunday meal Lindiana! I'll be back and will bring my friend with me whenever she's in town. Will also bring others your way as well! Great food, great experience. 5 stars!

    Incredible dining experience. The food was delicious. I got the fried yuca to start, followed by…read morethe masala oyster mushroom dish, which had perfectly seasoned and fried oyster mushrooms, perfectly al dente broccolini and a light celeriac puree. It was very filling but not too heavy. Ended it with a slice of the cheesecake. The staff was friendly and attentive -shout out to robert! Cant wait to come back next time I am in Houston. This place is a gem Didn't get pictures of everything so you have to see it for yourself

    I love the ambience of mantra and the design of the restaurant. It is beautifully put together…read more Lots of plants and geometrical decorations very inviting and warm. A great place for special events or date night. Featuring a beautiful menu crafted for plant-based living. However, anyone will enjoy the menu. We started off with the yucca fries and the SW hand pies. The fries were my absolute favorite. I did also enjoy the hand pies. They were very feeling. Our server was excellent. He was very attentive and handled the flow of the dining room exquisitely. I had the marsala, everything is well season. I really enjoyed the taste and texture of the oyster mushrooms. The potatoes were cooked perfectly along with the broccolini. My friend enjoyed the nachos. I have had them before and I never disappointed amount of spice, lots of flavor, It's definitely enough for two to share and once you start, you cannot stop. This is definitely a top pick for a nice dinner out.

    Crumbville is such a unique bakery and record shop with a beautiful atmosphere and positive vibe…read more It has an old school Third Ward feel, but also reflects a contemporary mindset. I read somewhere that the bakery is set to close soon and wanted to share a few thoughts regarding how important this bakery is, not only to my original childhood neighborhood, but the city itself. What I love: how the building looks on the outside and inside; the owner is very kind, friendly and eager to converse with visitors; and the idea that you can purchase an album by The Jungle Brothers, David Axelrod, Andre 3000, De La Soul or D'Angelo along with sweet treats from the bakery is just so cool. As a cratedigger who loves buying records, this is just so impressive to me. The great artwork hanging on the walls is another plus. A family member bought a delicious strawberry cake for my birthday a few years back, and that was my first introduction to Crumbville. The owner's decision to offer vegan and gluten free desserts was a smart decision, but she also offers regular baked goods. During my first visit recently, I purchased a strawberry cupcake, which had a lime-flavored cookie base. It was sublime and reminded me so much of the birthday cake from years ago. Service was great here. Overall, I just love this place. It makes me smile, and I will be very sad to see it go.

    Do yourself a favor, run ... don't walk to Crumbville! You won't regret it and if you run you will…read moreactually earn the dessert! :) I have wanted to try Crumbville for a while now, but never seem to find myself in that area. Yesterday, I had a hankering for a cupcake, and it was rainy so I had zero interest in going anywhere. I found that Crumbville is on the Favor app, so I figured, why not? I ordered the Blueberries & Cream Cheesecake cupcake. Wow, it was liking having a blueberry muffin, with loads of blueberries, and icing on top. It was so good!! I also ordered the Strawberries & Cream Cheesecake, Vanilla Peachy-cob-a-licious and the Chocolate Peanut Butter Snicker Crunch. All of the cupcakes are just so fresh and tasty. They are literally the best I have ever had. I fully plan on stopping in sometime to check out the location. I hear the service is amazing, and I cannot wait to find out!
