GOOD EATS
love this place. I’d definitely recommend this place if you’re trying
Cuban food for the first time.

SMOOSH COOKIES
$ Food Trucks, Desserts, Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt | 5505 Morningside Dr.
832.582.9864 | www.smooshcookies.com

This place can cause your hips to expand if you are not careful! The treats are yummy. I had the chocolate chip cookies with
mint chocolate chip ice cream. The cookie was nice and warm and the ice cream was perfect. I was very surprised how reasonable the prices were. I will definitely be returning to try out more combinations!

ANNA’S CRAWFISH
$$ Seafood Markets | 10020 West Rd. | 713.907.4375
This place looks really small on the outside, but that doesn’t mean anything! Don’t pass this place up. I found this gem last year and have
been coming back regularly. They have some of the best crawfish in
town. They are jumbo when in season; when it’s not in season, she will
let you know what size they are. And it’s always cheap, only $6.99
per pound. And they weigh it in front of you! The butter garlic sauce is
good and full of flavor. Anna also sells the sacks of live crawfish and
other seafood. I had the snow crab here and it was just as good. This
place is run by just her and sometimes her daughter, so it’s a mom and
pops place. She makes everything herself. She is really friendly! I
would definitely come back for more!!!

ANTONIO’S FLYING PIZZA
$$ Italian, Pizza | 2920 Hillcroft St. | 713.783.6080
www.antonios.com
I’ve been coming here since I was a wee one, so my review is full of
nostalgia, but Antonio’s is awesome. If you’re looking for classic pizza
and pasta, this is your place. I remember coming here as a kid and
getting to catch dough while we left...I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss
that. We always get a large, plain cheese pizza and spaghetti and
meat balls. I just can’t seem to order anything different, but I did order
a grown-up appetizer on our last visit and tried the stuffed mushrooms.
They were some of the best I’ve EVER had...and I love stuffed mushrooms. Love their rolls with butter too. Antonio’s is just the best for a
classic Italian meal. There’s never a wait anymore, so you can roll in
anytime. Bring the whole fam.

BUBBA’S TEXAS BURGER SHACK
$ Burgers | 5230 Westpark Dr. | 713.661.1622

I would like to say, I know burgers. I’ve had burgers across the
Southeast, eaten many great burgers. But this ... this is one of the best
burgers I have had in a long time. It is juicy and the flavors in it are
just right. The meat alone is delicious but with the fresh ve
