If a dish (like the popular lamb chops and pork ribs) run out on the Sunday brunch, you can ask your server for a special order for no extra charge.
Bacon wrapped filet. Yes please. Folks from many countries including those from South America all hail the goodness that is Fogo. After all these years, it has yet to be beaten in Churasscaria's.
You can ask for the upstairs for cozy and romantic, next to the big kitchen window for trendy and interesting, or in the general area for semi-formal to casual fine dining. In Houston's weather, the
Better than Katz's near Montrose. Larger portion (can usually share the meal), tastier, and cost just a little more. Also, way easier to park your car than Katz's.
The very BEST beef fajitas money can buy. No one has even come close. If this is your first time, do not get anything else.
Amazing food. Avoid things you can get anywhere else like pork chops. DO get authentic dishes like the Garlic Pork or others with fish. The flan is awesomely heavy. Split it with a friend.
More traditional Chinese rather than Vietnamese influenced dim sum dishes than Ocean Palace.
This huge grilled pork chop beast is the famous $11.95 (July 2011) Friday lunch special. Comes with mash potatoes and apple sauce and cut to order table side. Boss way to end the work week!!!
Sample by trying out their "power lunches". Large entrees with salad/soup and dessert for just a little more than you'd spend at Grand Lux just down the street. Avoid the salmon.
There is nothing finer than the bone-in rib eye swimming in butter, salt, and pepper with nothing else. Morton's has nothing on this version of the cut. (maybe better atmosphere in exchange?)
Avoid Thursday lunch crowd. Go early. Must wait for tables occasionally. Get some kabob combo for your first visit before venturing into more of the menu.
This ny strip was cooked "medium plus". ...between medium and medium well.
Fun to take out of towners to this place of excess. The variety of dishes makes the ordering process an experience all on it's own. Even something "ordinary" like a burger... Try the Max Burger :)
It's not Greek, but man the pork chops are unbeatable! Order it and wait for the grilling...
Try the fried calamari for twist on this appetizer staple. It's crafted like sweet and sour chicken. Don't let the exotic cars parked out front intimidate you, prices are reasonable (esp. Lunch).
The lunch menu is your best bet. Good individual orders as well as combination meals. Also surprisingly good are: curry udon, katsu don (pork & rice), and their hot lava noodle soup. Great prices.
Very friendly staff. Good lunch buffet for you to try a variety of things. Great buttered chicken.
The Red Curry with extra sauce is awesome. Solid milk coconut curry with chicken Thai style.
