A dedication to the Independence Heights neighborhood, Gatlin’s BBQ pitmaster Greg Gatlin offers a Houston spin on Southern staples at this establishment.
Barbecue staples like brisket, pork ribs, and sausage are a given at this Stomping Ground outpost, but diners can dive deeper into Texas and Gulf Coast fare with crawfish cheddar rolls, blue cheese patty melts, po’ boys, brisket gumbo, and so much more.
From the owners of sushi restaurant Hando and cocktail bar, Kanpai Club comes this charming modern Vietnamese restaurant that serves up a shareable experience with can’t-miss tapas-style plates, family-style portions, and endearing drinks.
The new Heights location is meant to make you feel like you’re in Sichuan and succeeds with its floating lanterns and a pagoda roof that hangs over the dining room. Get out of your comfort zone with new dishes like the three-cup chicken or the squirrel tail fish with pineapple, and look out for its growing list of in-house cocktails, some of which pay tribute to the Chinese zodiac.
Here, a steakhouse merges with Korean barbecue for an unforgettable experience, filled with quality meats grilled tableside.
HoustonEatz Instagram blogger and restauranteur Abbas Dhanani pays homage to New York convenience stores through this smash burger passion project, dishing out what might be the best-chopped cheese in the city.
