“ Quaint and casual neighborhood restaurant. There is a variety of food here from Vietnamese food to burgers. The Vietnamese eggrolls are very tasty. The burger is big and juicy in the fries are crispy and delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly and so flavorful. The service was attentive. The parking lot is small but free. Have come here multiple times it’s great for a quick and tasty bite. ”
“ Very different! Good different, offered a wide variety of craft beers! Their lunch special was worth every penny, appetizer and entree for 15. I chose the spring rolls and grilled pork vermicelli(sub noods for salad, it was great) What's unique about this place is they offer not your typical hot oil, i has the ghost pepper hot oil with the perfect amount of of spice!!! They offer jars of hot oils for sale in the flavor of Carolina keeper and Trinidad peppers I would definitely return. ”

“ Hughie’s is one of those places that just makes you happy. Their chicken fried steak is my absolute favorite—crispy, tender, and full of flavor. I never thought I’d rave about kale, but theirs is seriously so good. The shaking chicken and beef have so much flavor and just the right kick of spice. You can really tell everything’s made with love. The staff is always so kind and welcoming. ”
“ The fried rice is SO good. I would say the best in Houston that I’ve had. The spicy version actually has some heat, the rice is heavy on garlic (a good thing in my opinion) and the tofu is SO flavorful. It taste like lemongrass and is super delicious. Very large portion for your money. 10/10 ”
