    It was a group of 10 of us on after the Astros game on a Sunday around 3:30 PM. We were able to book online easily. I'd recommend registering all the players ahead of checking in to save time when you get there. The place is fairly big so you're not overcrowded. It has different sections for you so everyone's not starting at the same putting hole. As always I feel somewhat pressured and rushed when putting because I don't like to make the people behind wait. We had some nice people behind us so it wasn't too bad by the time all of us made it through our rounds. It's self serve at the bar so someone will have to putt for you to not hold anyone up. Overall, it was a fun experience and I did fairly well for not being an avid putter.

    Eh, it was alright. We found a Groupon for a group a 4 for one course and figured why not try it out. We got here 6pm on a Friday and it wasn't too busy. My first impression of this place was how dirty and messy it was. There were empty glasses/bottles everywhere. There were tons of employees, but none of them seemed to care. Each course was pretty short but we had fun. Our group of 4 took about 30 min to finish it. I think if the place was cleaner and the courses were longer I would have more positive things to say. If you can find a coupon then I would say it's worth it but paying original price for this dump is not worth it!

    We were walking around down town and stumbled upon this place. So glad we went it. It's only 14$ for 9 holes you can do all 32 but we just did the 9 holes. Got a bite and few drinks at bar. Food we delicious. Drinks were spot on.

    tldr; high-tech fun concept, but a bit pricey. I've been a couple times and had fun each time. You can make reservations ahead of time to save time. You check in upstairs and go through a brief tutorial. The technology tracks each stroke so you don't have to keep score and it's more difficult to cheat. You can also play the holes out of order if there's a big group in front of you. Each hole has a difficult obstacle that earns your bonus points. It's nice to be inside especially during the Houston summer. The game goes fairly quickly. The game play is accessible for a wide variety from family fun to corporate group outings to date night. Overall it's a fun concept with decent food. Downtown parking might be tricky. Apparently they validate parking so maybe it's not so bad.

    Your typical mini golf course, just overrated Tried to book online however even though I was told by two different staff members I could just book for my two kids that's not the case. Online and at the kiosk an adult purchase is required (so I just paid for one adult and one junior and let my kids play) total was about $25 (for 9 holes) they have different courses and our course was chosen for us at booking. We got the emerald course. You dont get to pick which holes you want to play. As we waited for our time slot I ordered a cocktail which was about $17. Pricey and not that good of a drink. Honestly this place is underwhelming.

    Love this place! Tons of fun and a great twist on mini golf. I don't know if I could ever go back to a normal mini golf course because this place is so cool and they are constantly running good deals on rounds. Ambiance is great, the staff are nice, and a great place to go even if you just want to kill time for an hour like me. You can play for just one round or make a whole day out of it and have so much fun either way. Their flatbread pizzas are surprisingly good as well! I just did one round and got 25th place on today's leaderboard!

    What a great activity for downtown Houston! Reservations were easy to do online and we showed up and were given our designated courses. We opted for 18 holes and there are 4 sections broken down in 9 holes each. Once you complete a section you can either take a break for food or drink and continue on to the next 9. Food and drinks were good! One of the cool things is that each putt hole has a screen to monitor progress and you can jump around to different holes if it's busy as long as you don't play hole 9 until your ready to be finished. Each hole on each section has some really unique and fun obstacles and it's fun for any age. For 18 holes and a break for food, it took about 2 hours. Again a great activity to change up the usual downtown vibe.

    We had a great time at putt-putt golf and was surprised by how good the food was! Polite and helpful staff and good process for the flow of players as well as dining. Sorry I forgot to take pics of the food! I am a serious foodie and very discriminating but can recommend everything we had from the chicken & waffles flatbread, the Brussels sprouts (without bacon), the spicy fried Atlanta Hot chicken sandwich, Thai Fried Chicken to the Texas Tail Pipes! All was crispy fried to perfection ( I don't normally eat FIRED ANYTHING, but when in Rome! The good thing is there was no heavy, sleepy feeling after the food settled. Each dish was seasoned to perfection, sauces were so tasty too. All came out too quickly and we were hungry so no pics! Great beer on tap and my glass was so huge I had to take it with me to finish while we played! Yep there were stations at each hole where you can sit your drink! Wait, I failed to mention how much FUN and exciting the round of putting was. Each hole had a different theme and some good trivia questions you could shoot for to get extra points. Grown folk trivia that included some 90's rap data that I was surprised the kids knew! So it was super fun for all generations.

    Ladies and gentlemen!! If you're looking for a place to go for a date night or just to have some fun like a pregame!! This is your place to go. The golf was really really fun and I enjoyed the drinks from the bar. We had great service. Everything was nice and clean.

    We came here on a Sunday afternoon to celebrate a birthday. Surprisingly, the playing areas had a steady stream of people however, it was not crowded. One thing that helps move the crowd through unlike similar places, is that you can play out of order of the "greens" because your ball is monitored. I appreciated that because groups of 4-5 can cause a delay for some of the games that require you to wait for the right moment to hit the ball. We enjoyed navigating through the course. I wish there was an explainer card next to each and also that the scoring was explained - somehow the worst golfer in our group seemed to be the winner with the most points, but overall it was a fun time. The seating area is HUGE - and there's a separate room overlooking McKinney that has a private bar and is likely great for private events. I was surprised by how empty it was in there, but grateful when it came time to eat after our game and our food came out within ten minutes of ordering. The food was great. Everyone enjoyed their dishes from the ATL, lettuce wraps, beignets and Pigtails. I ordered the pigtails and loved that it benefited the Houston Food Bank, but it was also a great "try." The eggroll shell was light but crisp, and the sauce paired perfectly with the mac and cheese. This is a great place to go grab a bite downtown if they have availability and you just need a quick bite. Whether greeting, serving or just standing around, the staff was extremely friendly and seemed to get along - not something you always see, so it was refreshing. Shoutout goes to Muna for taking our group photo to document our outing at the end of our game.

    First time being there it was such a fun date night idea! I definitely recommend if you are going to play a game try and play atleast two games to keep the fun going , although there is other places you could go if you are looking for a more affordable price. A game for two it was $30 including tax The food and drinks were great and the service was amazing we had our server check on us ,very sweet and attentive. Definitely get out there and check it out lots of photography shots you can do there And as expected is downtown guys you will have to find a parking garage or somewhere where you don't get towed. Have fun!

    Jazmin M.

    First time here, after lots of social media pop ups. Location is in downtown, parking options are garage or street parking. We arrived early for which it was still pretty empty and we were able to enjoy. Once you arrive you check in upstairs, you have the option of purchasing a game or games. Once you purchase you choose which lane you will like. You are able to play multiple times as long as you don't play the last part. Overall place was kept clean, staff was nice and restaurant was good.

    Thai fried chicken bites with Thai sesame peanut sauce
    Annalisa P.

    I quite enjoyed Puttshack. I've been to Puttery, which is similar. Puttshack is located downtown off McKinney, so you can park at any of those downtown garages nearby. When I first walked in to meet my date, I saw a few HPD officers standing at the entrance downstairs. You walk up a long flight of stairs to where the games and bar area is. We got drinks and food at the bar first. The Thai chicken bites with peanut sauce was good, but the garlic parm fries weren't. It wasn't crispy enough, and the garlic flavor seemed a bit off. I ordered a French 75 cocktail which wasn't on the menu. They have a full service bar, so you can request what you want if you don't see anything on the menu that you like. We paid for one round at the kiosks, and someone brought us golf clubs. The place was pretty empty for a Monday night, and it had just rained. This was literally the same week as the derecho that tore through Houston three days later. We thought we could choose another colored area to play in since the ones in the back were empty, but the color was pre-chosen for us. It's more of an open concept compared to Puttery which has themed rooms. I like that the putt putt area is more spread out than Puttery. You have more room to swing and not be so close to others. I also enjoyed the variety of trivia questions and the look of each hole. It seems less challenging than Puttery's crazy obstacles. After a round, we sat at one of the many seating areas and watched an Astros game on TV. We stayed till closing when one of the officers approached us that they'd be closing soon. Haha. All in all, I thought this was a fun place to go for a date or with a group of friends. I definitely saw a few large groups getting hyped during their play.

    Ask the Community - Puttshack - Houston

    Is it 21 and up after a certain time?

    It varies by location, but there is no 21+ restriction in our Houston venue

    How is parking there, do they validate?

    No, they don't validate. Parking is wherever you can find something reasonable in the area.

    How much does it cost to play?

    Hi Michael! It costs $14 dollars for adults and young adults, and $9 for juniors. Check out our website - https://www.puttshack.com/locations/houston - for more information on the venue, specials such as our weekday offer where you can get 50% off… 

    Can a 5 year old play?

    They could. Other kids are there, but I would not be my recommendation for someone that small on these types of holes. They are challenging and when crowded it gets chaotic in there.

    Do they have a kids menu?

    We do have a kids menu! Your server can provide one to you upon request.

While we waited for our table, we grabbed drinks at the bar on the other side, which felt like the perfect way to start the evening. I don't play about service and every box you could check was executed very well here. The greeting on entry was very intentional and welcoming. The table was still pending so the hostess showed us the bar and welcomed us to wait there. The bartender greeted us with a smile. We started with wine and when the table was ready the hostess came to gather us. A server came to take our drinks over to the table for us and they transferred the tab for us. Y'all, I love not having to think for a moment lol, please guide me through an experience. Ok so we got escorted to the table and since it was for my birthday, the hostess said "I think I have the perfect birthday table for you." And she did, because we ended up with the cutest plush velvet (I think lol) booth overlooking the rest of the restaurant so we could really take in the atmosphere. Also, loved the fully open-concept kitchen. Being able to see all the action added to the experience and gave the space a lively, interactive feel. Ok back to service because Bludorn really is topping the game! Our server was sweet and was able to speak to all the menu options. He really steered me in the right direction on choices, not one miss! Occasionally other staff would pop by just to say hi and make sure we were doing well. And I just love a little attention when I'm out spending my money y'all so that sat well with me. Ok now let's talk about the main event, the food. To start they brought us their version of Parker Rolls with a garlic butter, excellent starter. For an app I got the Chilled Corn Soup with Blue Crab. It was really refreshing, the flavors were vibrant and that crab was fresh. They also did not skimp on the crab. I honestly hated that it had to come to an end. For my entrée I did the Blackened Red Snapper (removed the bacon). This dish had a black eyed pea and puree situation under the fish. It was delicious! The snapper was perfectly flaky and tender, and the flavor of the accompanying puree was reminiscent of my mom's black eyed pea stew with bold flavors. The only thing was that I wanted the portion to be a little bigger, just made me sad is all lol. We also ordered the creamed spinach because they said it's one of their best sides and y'all it was so rich and velvety, it practically melted in my mouth! Now since it was my bday they brought out a cute chocolate dessert and had Happy Birthday written on the plate. I love details, it's going to get me every time. My friend got the salmon and said that it was "ok, nothing super special." She did love her shrimp app though. When we were ready for the check they brought out a cute postcard and the check was on the back. I thought that was so different, like finding a way to make the check cute is a talent lol. Also, for our left overs, they brought us little gold number plates, which we took to the front when leaving to claim our to-go bags. I thought this was very sophisticated, keeping the table clear in case you want to continue with drinks and convo, etc. Overall, the ambiance was warm, intimate, elevated, and effortlessly a vibe. Definitely the kind of place that feels perfect for date night or a cute dinner out with the girls. Would I go again? Of course, and I wouldn't think twice. As a matter of fact I'm making resys for brunch within the next few weeks. I plan to keep Bludorn in my rotation because when a place does it right you keep them close. I know Yelp does an overall star rating, but I'm going to start breaking my reviews down to show how I rate the different elements. Aesthetic or environment 5/5 Service 5/5 Food 4.5/5

I ordered the chocolate cake and a decaf coffee to go with very very good. Our waiter was good and helpful amd provided useful recommendations for the menu. I found it cute that they give you a key to put up your leftovers at the end. Overall a good experience and a place i would come back to.

For appetizers, I highly recommend the yellowtail sashimi. I'm sorry I didn't post a picture - I was SO hungry. I literally ate it like candy. Speaking of candy, it has Pop Rocks on top of the yellowtail. See how I tied that in, kids? My friends (also Yelp Elite) and I decided to do everything family-style. Since it's Restaurant Week (really Restaurant Month), we ordered a bunch of appetizers. The blue crab hush puppies were my second favorite. I wasn't a huge fan of the heirloom tomato because the wheat bread was way too thick for my liking. I would have preferred sourdough. But let's be honest - the reason I come here is for the mac & cheese and steak. I got the steak flight, which is about $110, but it's worth every penny. The Wagyu literally cuts like butter. The sides are HUGE and easily shareable with four people, so keep that in mind when ordering. Unfortunately, my friend did not enjoy his swordfish. His exact words were, "It tastes like dried chicken." My wife ordered the salad and absolutely loved it. Once again, the portion was enormous. If I'm judging this place solely on the wine, steaks, sides, and atmosphere, it's an easy five stars. You just have to know what to order. I was definitely disappointed to hear about the fish, but everything else keeps bringing me back.

He was incredibly friendly and working hard, but because he seemed to be juggling so much on his own, service was on the slower side. For the appetizer, we ordered the Crispy Fried Oysters & Brussels, and I got the redfish for my entrée. The Brussels sprouts were flash-fried perfectly, and I loved the sweetness of the chili honey glaze. The oysters had a nice crispy coating, but I found them to be a little bland. The redfish, though, was absolutely the star of the meal. I cleaned my plate. It was served with Hoppin' John and a lemon butter sauce. I had never heard of Hoppin' John before, but it's essentially a Southern rice-and-bean dish, and paired with that lemon butter, it was so flavorful. It complemented the fish perfectly.

    I'm actually really surprised with this place. The inside kinda gave me a farmhouse vibes. They had…read morea bar and seating around. It's not a huge restaurant but it could be the size of a cafe. I tried the pulpo for an appetizer. The potato's were soft. The octopus was easy to eat and seasoned well. I felt like paired well together. It did have a little oily flavor to the dressing they used almost like a sesame oil. I tried the red fish and that was a little dry on the inside. The dish itself was flavorful. I also tried the scallops and this one was my favorite. It was creamy and cheesy. The scallops were soft and each bite of the rice had some shrimp or crab in it. Service was a bit slow.
