We toured 5 happy hour spots the day I came and the minute they realized we weren't ordering food but were coming for the Advertised happy hour specials the service tanked. We actually liked the decor and was considering bringing a large group to dine the following week. Not anymore. We review happy hour spots on my influencer page and it was so terrible that they weren't worth it.

The space…read moreincludes a retro vibe; like 90s hip-hop, a vinyl record wall display, but paired with modern decor and lighting. Very eclectic with the music and wasn't blaring. The food is easily a 10/10. Chicken, fish, sides--they all had flavor, decent portions, probably one of the best Soul Food pricing in Houston. Even the cocktails were on point. I've been to other hookah lounges that charge less than their $40 price, nonetheless the hookah was smooth and consistent. As a server who completely ran the floor alone, Lindsey did an amazing job and checked the boxes: friendly, attentive, made us feel genuinely welcomed throughout the visit. It's a strong start, and I'm looking forward to coming back once they're fully up and running.

If I had to choose one word to summarize my experience at Mamajuana Café, it would be: perfect…read more The restaurant describes itself as a Latin American dining experience. Our waitress explained that the menu is a fusion of Dominican and Japanese cuisine. Since I have never visited either the Dominican Republic or Japan, I cannot speak to its authenticity. What I can say with confidence is that they have mastered flavor. The team at Mamajuana Café clearly pays attention to every detail--from timing and presentation to the thoughtful combination of ingredients and spices. Every dish felt carefully crafted and intentionally prepared. I only wish I lived closer so I could return more often and explore more of the menu. We ordered the burger and the filet mignon, and I highly recommend both. In fact, the burger was excellent. My only regret is ordering something familiar instead of taking the opportunity to try one of their more unique creations. If our first visit is any indication, Mamajuana Café is a place well worth returning to.

They have an all day brunch on Sundays only. Definitely take advantage of that. They have bottomless mimosas with your choice of a specific meal item for $50. It's a great deal if you're a mimosa person. I am. I will be returning.

Nice vibe dining experience! Sunday girls night out to catch up!…read more They do insist on your whole party being present before sitting down which I understand but service was still kind of slow. Food - I had the oxtail empanadas (menu description made it seem like one but you're given 3 mini empanadas) to start and the imperial Cajun salmon as my main with a side of Brussels sprouts. My only complaint is that i wish the mash that came with the salmon was a bit creamier. Other than that salmon was decent and nothing spectacular about the sprouts. Drink - I started with the Golden Hour and ended with a passion fruit margarita. Golden hour was actually worth the price because I was definitely feeling it! Passion fruit was refreshing. This place also had hookah lol i wish they weren't limited on their flavors but still hit regardless.

I visited PREY in Texas for my spouse's birthday, and while the atmosphere was very cute and…read moreromantic, perfect for a girls' night or date night, I don't think it's the kind of spot you bring your family to. They play live R&B music with a DJ, which definitely adds to the vibe, but the restaurant itself is very small (about 15 tables), so reservations can be hard to get. We arrived early but couldn't be seated until our actual reservation time. The prices are definitely upscale, but the space and food quality didn't match the price point in my opinion. I ordered the King Cat, which came with catfish, shrimp, and boudin rice. The catfish was cooked perfectly, crispy and not too salty, but it lacked seasoning. I didn't mind since I'm not big on salt, but others might. The shrimp was fine, but the boudin rice was mushy and honestly pretty awful; it didn't taste fresh and had the texture of mashed potatoes instead of rice. For $39, the plate felt overpriced, especially since we waited an hour for our food. Other dishes at the table were also just okay, we all agreed the food was around a 6.5 to 7 out of 10, but for me, it was closer to a 5 out of 10. We spent over $200 total, and it didn't feel worth it compared to other upscale restaurants I've been to. For example, I've had better experiences at places like 51fifteen, which is truly high-end but doesn't overcharge for something as simple as catfish. Customer service was decent (about a 6.5/10). Our waitress wasn't at fault for the long wait, and she did refill our waters, but overall, the service was just okay. I respect that this is a Black-owned business, and I encourage people to try it at least once, maybe during happy hour, but for me personally, I don't see myself returning. My overall rating would be a 6 out of 10: great vibes and music, but food quality and pricing don't match up.

This place was really nice inside.. I love the ambience. The service was amazing. Our waitress was…read morereally good and very attentive. As far as the food, I would say that it was just Mid and very moderate. I think the prices are very overpriced. Based on the portion of the food a side of rice was $18. The egg rolls were $16 almost the same prices of entrée. I wouldn't go back for the simple fact that the food is not all that great especially for the prices that you have to pay overall I'm glad I did go.

It honestly felt like the entire restaurant was reserved just for us that evening, which made our anniversary dinner feel even more intimate and special. The ambiance was beautiful and dark, dim lighting with such an elegant and relaxing vibe that instantly set the tone for a perfect date night. Whether you're planning a romantic evening, girls' night, or even just drinks with friends, this spot definitely creates the perfect atmosphere. We also heard they have live bands at times, which would make the experience even more amazing. We started the night with a bottle of red wine ("Jam Jar) I Love it! along with an Old Fashioned and a smoky Old Fashioned, both crafted perfectly. For appetizers, we had the greens and collard greens along with the turkey eggrolls, and they were absolutely delicious. For dinner, I enjoyed the steak with a loaded potato and salad, and every bite was flavorful, fresh, and cooked perfectly. My husband truly enjoyed his meal as well. We even ordered the oxtail macaroni and cheese to-go, and it did not disappoint! A special shoutout to our waiter, Javon, who was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cool throughout the evening. He made sure we had everything we needed and helped make our anniversary dinner even more memorable. The staff even surprised us by serenading us for our anniversary with sparklers and red velvet cake, which was such a beautiful and thoughtful touch that made the night feel extra special and unforgettable. Overall, this was an amazing dining experience, and we will definitely be back again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a classy Houston date night spot with great food, drinks, ambiance, and excellent service!
