The ambiance is very lively and always a good time. I've been here a couple times for happy hour and at night as well. Service is actually really good for a bar that's always busy. The waitresses check in often and bring drinks quickly. I've tried the picante drink, fruits of earth (pineapple and pass fruit mix so it's sweet), an expresso martini here. I enjoyed it all! The happy hour specials are a great way to try out the menu $7 cocktails, $5 martinis, discounted caviar service at $47. It's a great place for happy hour with friends or a stop when out bar hopping around town.

I have been trying to get a table here for months but it is almost impossible to since they do not accept reservations for parties under 6 people and they do not answer the phone. At first I thought that it was just that busy that they were so understaffed that no one was there to answer the phone. Instead, I witnessed the hosts rejecting every call when the phone rings. In the past when I tried to get a table in person, I was told that the wait was about 45 minutes to an hour which made me choose a different place. However, this time I anticipated waiting that long. An hour goes by until I received a text stating that the table was ready. I got to the hostess within 3 minutes of the text when she tells me they gave my table away because it's been 5 minutes. I proceeded to show her the timestamps on my phone that clearly show it was not 5 minutes. Not only did I have to wait another 20 minutes for them to figure out their mistake but I was finally given a table at the back of the patio next to the extra chairs. It was truly the equivalent of sitting next to the bathroom or kitchen door. We placed our order and got our food. The food was over seasoned in ways that made it inedible. The tabouleh was drenched in lemon juice, and the kebab was dry and tasted like I was eating all spice from the spice jar itself. The hummus had no flavor and the meat topping was also over seasoned. Our waitress also barely checked on us.. We then ordered hookah. The hookah was also gross. They packed the top so much that you could barely smoke it without coughing up a lung. The vibes were not vibing because there was also a birthday every 10 minutes.. At this point I've memorized the birthday song. Safe to say that I'll be exclusively be giving my money to literally anyone other than Lava Lounge. If anyone needs a recommendation on good food and better vibes.. Patio by La Pasha. Huge plates, edible food and better hookah.

Loved the…read morefree parking, but it's in a busy strip center area so you may have to park further back unless valet is your choice. Large patio and indoor space, good for groups. I walked in and let the hostess know that this was my first time and I just wanted hookah and a drink. Now it was at that moment she could have told me they didn't serve alcohol lol. She offered seating inside or out, and I chose inside. It was a hard choice, outside was a vibe! There were a lot of people on laptops, working, studying, etc., but I went on an off day so I chilled out this time. There were also people playing dominoes and cards, someone had their kid hanging out, someone was celebrating a birthday so they got a piece of cake with a sparkler and a small celebration by the staff. There was a lot going on during this lunch hour! I had a melon hookah and it lasted well over an hour without relighting. It was smooth and worth it. I tried an espresso martini (mocktail) and it was good and so pretty. My order was ready within about 5 mins or so with the hookah and drink. I didn't order food on this trip. Although you're able to smoke hookah inside, there was no issues for me with ventilation. The bathrooms are huge! There is a sink in each stall, privacy is appreciated. Here are my cons, but not a deal-breaker. First of all, no alcohol! Now I'm not a huge drinker but on this particular day I was looking for a kickback and wind down and didn't get that fully with a mocktail. You scan a QR code for their menu, which is pretty standard nowadays. I didn't see the hookah flavors available, so I stuck with what I normally get at other places. The waitress took FOREVER!! I made my initial order with the hookah and drinks and never saw her again to order food to try. Someone different brought my hookah and someone else brought the drink. I should've ordered all at one time but was still browsing the menu. When it was time for me to leave, I got up and went looking for someone to check me out. I had been there for almost an hour and a half which was a little longer than I originally planned to stay, because I was basically bar hopping solo on an off day. I was never told that gratuity was included. They use the standard electronic pad, so no printout was given when I checked out. I hate those things! I'm sure if you ask for a printout they can provide it though. Food - N/A but the hookah is 5 stars Service - Ambiance -

They managed to keep the same relaxed neighborhood vibe people love while giving it a much more modern, polished, and upscale feel. The updated design, lighting, TVs and overall atmosphere look incredible and make the space feel fresh without losing its personality. They still have the spinning drink wheel! The outdoor seating especially feels elevated now and makes for the perfect Houston brunch spot or night out. One of the best parts about NextDoor is that it's connected to Hungry's, which means you get full access to their menu while enjoying the lounge atmosphere. Being able to order everything from cocktails and appetizers to full meals while at a bar is a game changer. The food is consistently good, the drinks are strong (especially the frozen options) well-made, and everything comes out quickly. What keeps me coming back year after year is the consistency. The staff has always been welcoming and attentive, the crowd is chill, and it never feels overly pretentious or chaotic. It's one of those rare spots that works for everything, whether it's happy hour after work, date night, catching up with friends over drinks on the patio or a solo adventure. Love seeing a longtime Houston favorite continue to evolve while still delivering the same great experience that's kept me coming back for years. Definitely one of my go-to spots on Memorial Drive. My only suggestion is to tell the younger staff members to be conscious of their conversations while guest are dining nearby. I love people watching but I heard a lot of things. It appears Hungry's uses the bar area like a break/training room or to do other tasks like rolling utensils in napkins.

We were greeted immediately by the host and seated right away--honestly, that was the smoothest and best service we received all night. After that... things slowed down a lot. It took forever for our waitress to come to the table. I tried to give grace since it was Valentine's Day, but the place wasn't even crowded, so the delay was confusing. Now let's talk about the lavender lemon drop--because when it finally arrived? Whew. Delicious. Smooth, flavorful, and dangerously sneaky. I genuinely couldn't taste the alcohol, which is both a compliment and a warning . The wait time for the drink was long, but the payoff was there. For food, we ordered the Trap Trio (egg rolls, chicken sliders, and wings). Everything tasted good, though we asked for grilled chicken sliders and received fried instead. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting. Still enjoyable overall. I also had the shrimp Caesar salad. The shrimp were well-seasoned and not rubbery (thankfully), but the salad itself didn't really stand out--just okay, nothing memorable. Overall, Foxtrap is a nice vibe spot with good drinks and decent food. I really hope the service improves and that the waitstaff receives more consistent training, because with better service, this place could truly shine.
