I've been wanting to try Michy's for a while because the Puerto Rican and Asian fusion sounded…read morereally good. I was getting a haircut and my barber mentioned the place. I think he was hungry, so I decided to order the family pack and share it with him and everyone else at the barbershop. The service was top notch. I told them I needed extra plates and silverware, and honestly I thought they might forget since I was in a rush, but they had everything ready for me. I placed the order about 6 minutes before getting there and somehow they still had it ready when I arrived. The restaurant was very clean, the area was not crowded, and there was plenty of parking. I got the family fried chicken pack, which came with fried rice and fries. For the price, the amount of food you get is definitely worth it. I've had fried rice from other places that was too greasy and ended up giving me stomach pain, but this rice was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of oil. The fries were fresh and crispy, not soggy at all, and the fried chicken was crispy with really good flavor. The portions were great, the prices were affordable, the service was excellent, and everything tasted fresh. I'll definitely be coming back and would recommend Michy's.

I really wanted to love this place because I absolutely love the concept of blending Latin and…read moreChinese flavors. Unfortunately, the food just didn't live up to the idea. The restaurant itself was very clean, the atmosphere was nice, and I was happy to see limbers on the menu. Service was also pleasant. But when it came to the food, it was a letdown. The vegetable fried rice had very little flavor, and both the sweet and sour chicken and orange chicken were just okay, nothing particularly memorable. The biggest disappointment was the crab rangoon, which was honestly the worst I've ever had. It lacked flavor and texture, and I couldn't finish it. The tostones needed salt they were a bit too soft too. Overall, I left wishing the food had more seasoning and more of the bold flavors that make both Latin and Chinese cuisine so special. The concept has so much potential, but this visit missed the mark for me. Sadly, the food wasn't something my Puerto Rican ancestors would be proud of. Hopefully it was just an off day, but based on this experience, I don't see myself returning.

Normally you order at the front desk, but they helped us in our table since we were a group of 10. It's a small place with about 4 tables and only one restroom. The girl that helped us was attentive. One complaint is that they have Pepsi and not Coke but that's a personal preference. Food is ok, someone ordered Queso Frito, for my taste was too salty. But the Tostones with pork meat were really good. I got mofongo with camarones, the shrimp were good size, the mofongo was too dry but I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that, I noticed they serve the mofongo not in the traditional way, which is like in a cup shape the protein in the middle, here they serve the mofongo in the shape of a small cake and the protein on the side. The arroz con gandujes was good and the pork was good. I feel they have potential. The restroom situation (only one) is not ideal though.

I get them every single time, and I've even ordered half trays for parties and yes, full trays for bigger get-togethers. They're that good. The lunch specials are such a steal too. The pork fried rice hits every time, and the fried chicken is solid crispy, flavorful, and not greasy or overly salty like a lot of places. Overall, it's one of those spots that just doesn't miss. Great food, great value, and definitely a go-to for both quick lunches and feeding a crowd.

It felt like I was eating mostly sauce--I couldn't really taste the steak or the plantain because the sauce completely overpowered everything else. That said, I loved the decor of the place. The paintings on the walls were fun, colorful, and really vibrant. Even though I didn't like what I ordered, I would definitely come back and try something different.

I finally had the pleasure of checking out Tex-Chick Eatery, a family-owned Puerto Rican restaurant…read morethat's been serving the community since 1982 and is now lovingly run by Titi Marilu and Grace. From the moment I stepped into this cozy spot, I instantly felt like I was back home in Puerto Rico. Just like our island, it's small, but filled with a huge heart. We spent time chatting with them about our families, childhood memories, and how happy we are that they've kept our culture alive right here in the Montrose area of Houston. We enjoyed a true Puerto Rican feast: arroz con gandules, pernil, mofongo con camarones al ajillo, pollo frito, empanadas de yuca y masa, flan de coco, limber de guanábana, and of course, more food to take home because we couldn't have it all at once! My personal favorite were the limbers with traditional flavors I don't recall ever having a limber outside of PR. This is a counter-service eatery, where you can see all the freshly prepared dishes right in front of you. You truly can't ask for better service; if there's something you're craving that's not in the menu for that day and they have time, they'll gladly make it for you! That's the kind of love and care you only find in places that cook from the heart. Prices are very reasonable although parking can be a bit tricky but that's mostly all of Montrose. Let's keep our culture thriving. s Support our local Puerto Rican businesses. WEEPA!

They change the menu daily so check their Facebook page to know what they are serving. We had Mofongo with Pernil and Mofongo with bacalao (cod fish) which were delicious.

Topped the delicious meal with Malta & Flan. The parking is very sparse and the dining room only has 3 small tables and some seats along the wall.

The space was a bit bigger (they've since redesigned it smaller), but the crowds were smaller. Success hasn't tarnished their food. It was a very rainy and soggy afternoons and the place was packed. We managed a table and ordered. Can't go wrong with the delicious shrimp mofongo. I honestly think the sauce is the icing on that cake, made all the more delicious with a squeeze of lemon. Whew! Service was fast and dinner came out at a reasonable pace. The owner is so friendly and stopped by our table to make sure things were good. Better than good!

The food does take some time, and servers did not check in too often so I would recommend ordering ahead of time (unless you have a long lunch break), There are plenty of tables, but it is a little dark inside, 2 bathrooms inside. The juice was on the sweet side so just watered it down (wish they have smoothies), but they get 5 stars overall for the flavor and the price point. Plenty of parking as it's in located along other stores.

Spacious and clean seating inside, it's to go style so you order at the counter and they buzz you when the order is ready for pick up. We waited a bit longer for our plates, like about 20min but it's ok since the food was yummy. Orange chicken with the fried rice and fries is 9/10, not as crispy as I wanted but the balance of sweet sourness was perfect. Chicken was tender and soft, not heavily coated too. Fried rice was my favorite because I don't like peas and carrots, there's none of that, instead they got some bbq pork and egg, not salty and great rice texture (every grain is well seasoned and separated) Jalapeño Churrasco with the mofongo is like a 8/10. Beef is juicy but super chewy. Every piece has a light grill smokey taste. Highlight is the sauce, it's little tangy but not really spicy unless you eat the jalapeño. Was my first time trying the mofongo, very interesting texture and really garlicky. Dipping the mofongo in the churrasco sauce was a great pairing though. Overall, I really like the place. I will be back to try more in the future, especially that boneless pork ribs that I see a lot of reviews about.
