Houston Food Guides
Hey, y’all! Explore my Houston-area restaurant visits by cuisine, from Vietnamese food and dim sum to sushi, barbecue, burgers and buffets. Each guide brings together my videos so you can see the food and decide what you want to try.
For what I ordered, what I loved and what I would get again, browse my firsthand restaurant reviews. My visits include Houston and nearby communities such as Spring, Katy, Sugar Land and Humble; trips farther afield are in Beyond Houston.

Start with the food you’re craving, then open a restaurant’s video or written review. Compare the dishes, my impressions and any prices recorded during the visit. Lunch and dinner menus can differ, especially at buffets, so confirm current prices, hours and the exact location with the restaurant before you go.
These guides reflect my own visits rather than a complete list of every restaurant in Houston. Meet Hong to learn more about the person behind the reviews, or browse the full food video library for more places to explore.
