i've eaten there, it's decent enough to be able to stay open especially considering it's in a great location in city centre/memorial city area. surprised it closed.
How long was it opened

The restaurant wasn't worth the prices. I could go get dope ass BBQ that's a whole lot better from Killens, Pinkertons, Gatlins, Pit Room or Truth instead. If you open a restaurant in Houston, it can't be BBQ/Mexican/Vietnamese/Korean unless you bring something absolutely unique to the table.

I used to live in Houston

The restaurant scene is crazy competitive. You gotta have a tex mex or a texas bbq joint to succeed. By texas BBQ I mean that crazy peppered beef with onions, jalapenos and pickles no sauce at all.

One thing tho them folks in Houston are fat as hell. If they not eating your food something wrong.


:patrice: that's the standard? I mess with yall authentic mexican and BBQ:ohlawd::feedme:


but didnt know that's how it should go.

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
Ignorant ass fake outrage.


Now you have a bevy of hard working culinary brothas as sistas that are now out of work.







Houston is a huge food city, so I get implementing a business there for this type cuisine, but she should have considered the demographic.



Overall, it's petty and fukked up. But she fukked up her own cake by doing too much on social media.



People despise the successful and everybody has a social media account. Guess she didn't account for that.

Rockets ain’t even a team to be standing like that. Outside of those 2 years Hakeem won them a ring the Houston bottle rockets have nothing to their name.
You stupid when the last time the Rockets didn't make the playoffs ir have a contender. Luis Scola led Rockets were even decent. The team constantly contends and has a great history of acquiring talent in free agency.Several HOF have played here in they're prime.

:snoop:

People of Oakland tend to have a victim mentality. But reading the comments it seems like she’s blaming her bad business practices on crime.

If it’s always closed and nobody is there, it means that they probably are not profitable. Cause has any profitable business in the area shut down or at least not moved to a better area? :unimpressed:
