    Uchi - best sushi in Houston. Second best is MF Sushi in the museum district

    Anthony’s- Way the F out in Simonton, but amazing food and drinks.

    Oporto - try a caipirinha, croquetas, and batatas bravas and share around.

    Le Colonial - Vietnamese/French fusion in River Oaks. Go for a date night/anniversary.

    Musaafer - Galleria, best Indian food in Houston.

    Uchi had one of the best meals he had in years but I hear it’s a chain now

    Your last recc…no way it’s better than Agas?!

    I take this back. Food that gets delivered in clear plastic gets nasty, wet and soggy.

    Honestly didn't love Katami. But I would try it again.

    Shame I'll never eat at Aga's since it's in the middle of nowhere and I'd have to take the axis of **** that is the 59/610 exchange.
