    I recently stopped by for the first time and ordered the shrimp and grits. The dish itself was decent overall, but the grits arrived at room temperature, which really took away from the experience. Hot, creamy grits make a big difference with this kind of plate, and these just didn't deliver on that. Service was another issue. I sat at the bar for about 10 minutes without anyone acknowledging me. I eventually had to call a bartender over just to place my order. To make things more frustrating, my food came out before my drink was even made. This was my first visit, and while the food had potential, the lukewarm grits and slow service left a poor impression. Honestly, I probably won't be back

    Fried Okra

    Taste Bar + Kitchen definitely delivered! We ordered the fried okra, fried calamari, and the dirty rice topped with fried shrimp and catfish, and every dish was full of flavor. The fried okra was crispy, perfectly seasoned, and impossible to stop eating. The calamari was tender with a light, crunchy coating--not rubbery at all. The star of the meal was the dirty rice with fried shrimp and catfish. The dirty rice was rich, flavorful, and well-seasoned, while the shrimp and catfish were fried to golden perfection with a crispy outside and tender, flaky inside. The only downside to our visit was the wait to be seated. It took longer than expected before we were finally sat down, which was a little frustrating. Thankfully, once we were seated, the food made up for the wait. Overall, everything came out fresh, hot, and cooked just right. If you're looking for delicious Southern comfort food with generous portions and amazing flavor, Taste Bar + Kitchen is definitely worth the visit. I'll absolutely be back to try more from the menu!

    Whenever I get a chance to visit Taste, I always leave satisfied. Last week, I went to Taste after 2-3 years. The service has improved tremendously since I last visited. The ambience is nice,clean and open atmosphere. I ordered the traditional Cajun fried chicken wings, collard greens, macaroni and cheese. The wings and collard greens were delicious! Even after all these years, I'm still not a fan of the mac and cheese. It's not as flavorful as the other dishes. For my drink, I ordered the sangria. Which was delicious and refreshing. If you're ever in the area, I highly recommend checking out Taste bar. I'll be on a mission to visit more often this year.

    I went to Taste for happy hour after work and thoroughly enjoyed my visit. The server was personable and the food and drinks were great. I loved the Dusse watermelon frozen drink. I ordered spicy ranch wings, mac and cheese, collards, and fried mushrooms and all of it was super tasty and reminded me of home cooking. The restaurant was lively and had wonderful happy hour vibes. I highly recommend giving this place a try!!

    Jerk chicken sandwich with a side of Mac & cheese
    Yesica R.

    Was in town for the weekend & I ended up coming here twice in one day because it was so good. So many options & both things I tried were delicious! For lunch I had a jerk chicken sandwich with a side of mac & cheese with was so cheesy, loved it! For dinner I forgot the name of it but it was chicken smothered in a sauce with yams & collard greens with a waffle biscuit with was also amazing! If I'm ever back in town I will be coming back here. Also the servers were very friendly & attentive, the place itself was very chill, good music playing.

    This was recommended to us by a friend since we were visiting from MD and it lived up to the hype. I'm still mad my leftovers didn't make it on the flight with me. We made a reservation and that was absolutely necessary after seeing the wait upon arrival. We were seated immediately which was plus. The upstairs is a bit cramped but they made decent use of the space. The environment is very laid back but vibrant, music was rocking and it's VERY black in there which I love. Our server was Brian and he was the best. I was torn between the taste of soul and the catfish and grits and he was so patient and helpful with me as I mulled it over. We had: Garlic and Herb lamp chops - 10/10 - they were so moist and flavorful I have no notes. The order came with 4 so it was great to split. Calamari - 10/10 - no notes, the texture was perfect the portion size was perfect and the aioli was a great paring but they typically serve it with marina. I asked for a lemon on the side and they brought one grilled, I didn't ask for that but I was happy with the assumption. Catfish and grits - 10/10 - the portion on this plate was insane, INSANE. The grits? Please, put me in a room and give me some privacy because wow. The texture was so creamy and rich without overpowering the catfish. It got to a point in the meal where I was just eating it so I could taste it even though I was spreading like a peacock on the inside. The only thing I would change about this dish is the amount of Cajun cream as it was a bit heavy handed for my taste. I skimmed some off the top and that worked for me. Peach cobbler waffle - did not taste but my friend said they were good. Candied yams - 10/10 - I typically hate yams, it's something about the taste that's artificial to me but these were amazing. The texture, the hint of cinnamon spice were so good I had seconds. Greens - 5/10 - my least favorite thing. They were so salty I couldn't finish my bite. After my friend mentioned us being there for my birthday Brian brought out this cute slice of cake and sparkler before he started hooting and hollering and I enjoyed that haha. Thanks for making our service enjoyable Brian, we will be back.

    Chicken & waffles without the fruit
    Elisa M.

    Yelp family, you didn't fail me!!! We decided to have brunch here based on reviews and went ahead and made a reservation (make the reservation, you'll thank me later) for brunch on Sunday. We walked in and was seated quickly. Brian was our server. Brian got us started on waters while we looked at the menu, we ended up ordered calamari and wings (jerk/orange pepper) but was told that they were out of calamari and decided on the cauliflower with general tao's sauce. I got the Nearest Peach drink with whipped cream on top and order the Taste of Soul but opted for oxtails. The appetizers started the meal off right. The cauliflower was a great highlight as everyone enjoyed it (someone even mentioned ordering another one and even ordering to take home with them), the jerk chicken was good although the jerk was a little on the drier side than the orange pepper was. However you know food is good when you don't have to add anything to it (salt, pepper, hot sauce) and that's what was given to me. The greens had nice heat to them, the yams were sweet and delicious, the oxtail still had a little too much fat on them for me, but it didn't stop me from getting into them. The cornbread waffle was a nice little addition. The rice with the gravy was a nice bite. Seriously, I just sat there and smiled because this plate of food didn't disappoint. If you like liquor, you'll like this drink. Seriously, there's nothing that has me questioning if I would come back and try it again. My sister has the blackened catfish and grits which she enjoyed, my friend had the fried catfish and grits which she said the cream sauce made the dish . . . No complaints from us. The place gets busy so I highly recommend making that reservation. It has a busy, lively vibe and when you walk in, do get intimidated by the size as there's a whole upstairs section. And the service Brian provided was TOP NOTCH!!! He made sure that when we walked out, we were satisfied. GO!!! Thank me later.

    Food was fresh, seasoned perfectly, and came out quick. Not a single miss. Our server was AMAZING. Super detailed, gave her favorites, and even helped us adjust our order for pre race. Honorable mention to the R&B playlist... 10 out of 10, no skips. We might have to spin the block instead of trying somewhere new in Houston

    Taste of Soul with oxtails
    Tina S.

    If you're an oxtail lover, do yourself a favor and order them. The oxtails were absolutely incredible--fall-off-the-bone tender, rich, flavorful, and smothered in a savory gravy that had me wanting to lick the plate clean. Every bite was perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The sides complemented the meal beautifully, and the entire plate was comfort food at its finest. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the service was pretty slow, and the music was a bit too loud for my taste. It made it difficult to carry on a conversation at times. That said, the food--especially those oxtails--was worth the wait. I'll definitely be back when I'm craving some of the best oxtails I've had in a long time.

    Yasmin S.

    The flavor of the food was great, however the temperature wasn't. I ordered the lamb chop meal with greens and mac. The sides were great, but the lamb chops were way overcooked. I asked for med, and they came out well done. We also got the wing meal, and the wings came out lukewarm like they had been sitting for a long time. However, the waiter was super nice, and tried to help us. They rectified the issues, but overall it was a little disappointing to have that experience.

    The food and service was excellent. Lots of breakfast, brunch and dinner options. Cindy was knowledgeable about menu and made great recommendations.

    Catfish Grits
    Jordan W.

    I haven't actually got to dine in at the new location but did place a to go order for the catfish and grits. I was craving a really good catfish and grits with a cream sauce and this definitely exceeded my expectation. I would like to give them a try dining in, but I saw they require a $50 deposit per person which is a little excessive so I'll just continue to order to go for now. The sauce was flavorful I do wish the catfish was fried a little hard, but that wasn't an option when you ordered to go. I definitely recommend trying this based on my experience for to go. I hope to make my way in one day to see what the ambience and service is like.

There were other families there, and it felt very welcoming without sacrificing that nice restaurant vibe. Everyone in the family really enjoyed what they ordered and the service was great! My oldest daughter had the cheeseburger with french fries and loved it, especially the bread which was nicely toasted and gave it a great crunch. My youngest had the chicken tenders with mac and cheese, and my husband really liked his stuffed poblano pepper dish. I ordered the country-fried pork with greens and mashed potatoes, and everything on my plate was delicious. The mashed potatoes were great, and the greens leaned more sweet than savory, which I really enjoyed. The fried green tomatoes were another major standout with the sauce they served. I honestly wish we had a spot like this back home! My only small critique is to skip the sweet tea. I haven't found a single place in Houston where the sweet tea was actually sweet enough for my taste, but overall, this was a fantastic spot with great service that I'd highly recommend.

    10/10 everything was top notch. Flavor was perfect. Texture was perfect…read more Parking was in a garage but they will validate for u. Just grab a ticket at the hostess desk on your way back to the garage. When u go down to the first floor. U will go out the door and Eunice is next door on the left side. . I will say the portions are very small but the flavor is excellent. We had gumbo, biscuit and burrata and duck poppers. The duck poppers were the size of ur finger ( if ur a small woman and there were 5 of them). The etoufee was very good. But for $43 it's pretty pricey. U do get shrimp cooked 2 ways. And the flavors were so good. I have no complaints about any foods at Eunice. In fact, I will be back for some of this delish food!! Yall need to try it.

    Eunice was absolutely incredible from start to finish! The ambiance is so amazing and our service…read morewas equally exceptional. We began with the cast iron cornbread, Cajun poppers, and chargrilled oysters, and every appetizer was packed with flavor. The cornbread was warm and delicious, the Cajun poppers were a standout, and the chargrilled oysters were cooked perfectly. For our entrees, we ordered the shrimp etouffe and the filet and frites. The etoufee was pretty good, though not my favorite. The filet was tender, perfectly cooked. Even the cocktails were delicious! Everything we tried was memorable, and the entire meal exceeded our expectations. I would absolutely return and highly recommend Eunice!
