What a wonderful experience! My friend and I came here to celebrate her birthday. The place was packed and there was a bit of a wait time. Not a large waiting area but they have a nice picture wall backdrop that you can take pics in front of. Complementary glasses of champagne were provided. Nice decor, beautiful ambience and music at a level where you can still carry on a conversation. Our server was amazing and gave us some really good recommendations. For appetizers: The Seafood dip was incredible and I would come back just for the Selva salad! So fresh and that dressing was chef’s kiss! Entrees: We shared the NY strip steak and Peruvian chicken. Sides: We had Brussels sprouts and Mascarpone mashed potatoes. The steak was good (not quite medium like we wanted but still very good) and the spicy cajun butter topping added to the flavor. The chicken in itself was ok but it was the Ahi sauce under it that stole the show. It brought everything beautifully together. The Brussel sprouts and Mashed potatoes were flavorful and done right. One of the highlights was that our shared dishes were split and served on 2 separate plates for us so we didn’t have to do anything. That was very thoughtful and accommodating. We were full and couldn’t fit dessert, but they were sweet enough to bring out a beautifully decorated s’more plate to commemorate my friend’s b’day! Would most definitely come back!

Came here for brunch and kyra was great! She had great recommendations and the drinks and food were great. Got the dynamite shrimp. Spicy but not overpowering. The tuna was amazing. The steak was cooked perfectly. Will be back for sure!

We had a great experience. The atmosphere was upscale while still feeling very comfortable, lively, relaxed, and perfect for enjoying a long meal. The food was "on point". The whole fried snapper was phenomenal; generous in size, perfectly crisp at the corners, and cooked beautifully throughout. The sides took it to another level. The Brussels sprouts, mashed potatoes and corn; WoW Service made the night even better. Moni was sharp, attentive, and completely took care of us; a party of 4. She was knowledgeable, well-timed, and welcoming. She elevated the entire experience. We had a ball.....

We chose this restaurant here to celebrate the anniversary. The food, service, and atmosphere were all very much appreciated. Thanks to our server, Chelsea, and also to the restaurant manager and other staff leaders for a great environment and dining experience! The steak was tender, other food items were adequately prepared, and the drinks were really good. MAKE SURE YOU CONSIDER PUTTING THE MARTINI COCKTAIL WITH THE PEANUT BUTTER WHISKEY ON THE MENU — DON’T FORGET ABOUT ME 🤣🤣🤞🏽🤞🏽. Looking forward to returning to try this restaurant again.

This was a 10 out of 10 experience. I visited Bungalow downtown Houston with two of my girlfriends for brunch. We were visiting Houston on a girls trip visiting from Charlotte, NC and Virginia. Initially, I’d seen a lot on social media about Bungalow and wanted to try it out for myself to see what the hype was about. I can truly say that from start to finish, the entire experience was phenomenal. The food was excellent!!!! We ordered the whole fried red snapper, the seafood dip, the lobster grilled cheese, the chicken wings, and the stuffed French toast. The fried red snapper is one of the best I have ever had in my entire life. I can honestly say that every single item we tasted was spectacular. Additionally, the aesthetic and overall vibe of the restaurant was superb. It is a beautiful establishment and the service was equally impressive. The alcoholic beverages were also very good, and strong! It has been a very long time since I have gone to a restaurant that possessed all three characteristics: great aesthetic/vibe, excellent food, and excellent service. We enjoyed Bungalow so much that we planned to go back a second time before the end of our trip, but unfortunately did not have a chance to go back. I will definitely be adding Bungalow to my list of staple restaurants that I must eat whenever I am in Houston again. It was a pleasure to support this black owned business. Thank you for providing such a wonderful dining experience.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Everything was 5/5! From the seafood dip to the Red Snapper to the bread pudding! Our Server Monie was great! Super nice and her recommendations were on point! I will definitely come back! Ask for Monie!

Recently booked the Chefs Table for my mom’s 50th Birthday Brunch!! It was absolutely stunning! The food was absolutely amazing, especially the Seafood Dip. (If you book this space for your group, you should definitely order 2-3 for the table to try!!) Drinks were great. Shoutout to our bartender Tyson, and our server Kira! They did a phenomenal job and made our experience even better!

Houston Institution. Artistic unique environment been there 100s of times. Used to have more live music events there. Mostly awesome!!

Celae Mazique

I didn’t try the food but drinks are worth it it bring a nice down to earth vibe definitely is my go to spot. Honestly everyone does their own thing but I think people are more open to getting to know each other here. A deep conversation type of place or if your trying to get to know someone I would recommend.

Sahba A

Some of these reviews are blowing me. This is my favorite bar in Houston and I will say it is NOT everyone’s cup of tea. I love that they display different artists work everytime I go. This is THE place to vibe if it’s your type of vibe

Mac

Love this place such a unique vibe I definitely got a New York speakeasy vibe here the art was amazing. Music in every room was a vibe. Drinks were strong and lighting was everything.

cj johnson

Super chill place. Arguably one of the most unique bars in Houston.

Ivonne Morfin

The drinks were amazing! The vibes and atmosphere were chill. I am definitely coming back.

Brenda Iniguez

If you love art, museums and the quirky environments, this is it! Make sure to check out the upstairs. Drinks can be better, but the environment makes up for it. Don’t overthink it, and dive right in.

MEGHAN CUMA

Stumbled upon this place walking around downtown and it was so cool!! Felt like I was transported to another world. Three floors of a bunch of art instillations, sculptures, taxidermy, and a planetarium! always something to look at. Lots of chill places to sit. Everyone is very nice. A bit of a sexual undertone. $18 for a cocktail. Definitely a fun stop in downtown!

Denitria “Dee” Marino

It’s a artistic air about the place. The drinks are very good. You can get different drinks from any floor every time I go downtown I have to stop here just for the vibe. Be sure to bring your own music play. You’d be surprised about what you see you can even play chess give it a chance. I bet you would love the vibe if you were a low-key kind of guy or girl. It’s free !

Great place to see live performances: poetry, music and art. Bartenders are in the 1st floor mostly, but sometimes they also have the 2nd and 3rd floor bar areas open. Drinks ranges between $10-20 and they automatically add tips(gratuity) and taxes at the end.

A Downtown Gem: Notsuoh!! Notsuoh is a hidden oasis in the heart of downtown. Step inside and be transported to a world of unique decor, quirky ambiance, and creative cocktails. From the eclectic artwork to the vintage furniture, every detail is thoughtfully curated. The laid-back atmosphere and friendly staff make it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy a night out.

Tasnim Ara Islam

Had a unique experience at this eccentric bar in Houston Downtown Main Street. The quirky design caught our eye, prompting us to explore the eclectic collection of weird artifacts both inside and outside. The ambiance and decor made for an interesting stroll. Perfect for those looking to break away from the usual bar scene and immerse themselves in something different.

Cassandra Stish

Absolutely a blast! Curiosity shoppe meets bar, meets art gallery, and open mic night. There is something cool to look at everywhere. Don't miss the whisper chamber upstairs!

Hernan Flores

Very cool place. You have to get a drink to go to the next floors. There's so much to see in every floor and so many small details you can miss. Tons of cool things to take photos of and tons of photo ops. Outdoor areas available as well. It's hard to explain but there's so much to see here. From cool funky things to an art gallery. Can't wait to be back and see more things. A must see in Houston. I have tons of photos but won't post all to keep the element of surprise alive.

Very interesting atmosphere there was an interesting beer selection! Went after a concert after riding on a bike rickshaw. Had a great time for the little amount of time we spent there and plan to return and see it again and really explore the whole venue!

Overall lovely experience. My boyfriend and I came to celebrate and were instantly greeted with a complimentary glass of champagne. We were consistently and carefully attended to by our server, Samyri, who also provided helpful recommendations. The R&B music really set the mood and complimented the aesthetics. At the end of the evening we were surprised with a very sweet treat. In terms of the food; loved the passion fruit mocktail! The crab dip was delicious and worth considering a second trip for. The lobster was very juicy, the Peruvian chicken was good but I wish the chicken was more flavorful in its self (the ahi sauce however, was delicious). I appreciated the crispy yet flavorful Brussels sprouts, but wish the mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese had a bit more flavor to them. Overall, the experience and food were very enjoyable. Keep in mind there’s a 20% gratuity included, overall the entire meal came to approximately $200.

Michael Kennedy

In a world where all our bars look the same and have the same drink less with the same people doing the same thing this place really stands out it's extremely artsy and it's not for everyone's type but it has a really good vibe and an eclectic collection of antiques.

Definitely a crazy place! If your are looking for something very different for a bar hopping experience come to this place. Kind of creepy, good drinks and it’s usually pretty empty. Very different experience, looks like an antique store/ museum

We went to have dinner on 11-23-25. I’m a little late posting this review, but here it is. Our waitress was very nice, attentive, and truly tried to make our dinner enjoyable. We ordered the filet mignon with creamed corn and mashed potatoes everything tasted good. They also give you a complimentary dessert if you’re celebrating a special occasion, which is a nice touch. 🙂 However, our experience was disrupted by a little fly/gnat that kept bothering us throughout the entire meal. My husband mentioned it to the waitress, but nothing was done about it, and the issue was ignored. To make things worse, I slipped and almost fell on the floor in the path back to my table after returning from the restroom because it was slippery. I’m currently in a leg brace, so this could have been a serious injury. Our waitress noticed and came to check on us afterward. Also, just be aware that you will be subject to an automatic 20% gratuity despite your experience. When you go to a nice restaurant, you expect to enjoy your meal not deal with pests flying around or worry about getting hurt. Other than that, the food was good and our waitress was attentive.

Logan Marchman

Great spot, but the drinks are now $16 and they charge a “fair trade” mandatory 20% tip and then ask for an additional tip on top without telling you. Maybe if you want to be fair to your people you should… pay them a living wage? Outside of this predatory bs the best spot on Main

John Smith

We used to love this quirky little place but recently they have raised their drink prices so high that I refuse to go back. We strolled in last weekend ordered a espresso martini and was charged $26. There were no prices on menu and when I consulted the bar tender their response was rude and simple " you should have asked". This is not longer the place I used to enjoy.

My wife and I were so excited to choose this restaurant as our Valentine’s Day dinner. Unfortunately, our experience was so awful that we feel obligated to leave a review. Despite paying for the entire Valentine’s Day pre-planned package; we never received our first course (oysters), had our second course changed with a substitution and were never notified until it was served to us in a passive manner that we felt obligated to keep it. (Ran out of the packaged item) Then, when our main course was served, there was a cockroach under our plate that ran across our table. We took a picture, notified the server quietly to not cause a scene out of respect, but were very disappointed in the way it was handled. we quickly moved to desert to try and wrap up our dinner as we had lost our taste. We were unfortunately charged full price with no accommodations. We paid quietly and began walking towards the exit. The manager offered to reduce our check by $30 (our original check was $470, so this would be a 6% accommodation) however this was after we had already paid and signed our check and began to leave. The halfhearted gesture left us feeling uncomfortable and in an awkward position. We will unfortunately not be back, nor do we feel that the management team cares too much that it happened. this situation was not properly managed, and no one seemed to care much about it, other than wiping down the cockroach with a napkin and quickly moving on as if it did not happen.
