Had lunch there today with the hubby. Great food and great service. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and the guy who was our server was very attentive and friendly. Great service and good food.. definitely would be back to try some more dishes. We had the lunch menu which is sandwiches with choice of fries or salad, I had the Uncle Phil (Philly cheese steak) and the hubby had the chicken sandwich one. The chicken sandwich was delicious with a good spicy kick to it with delicious slaw in it. Also, the Brussels sprouts was so good!! Definitely a great place to try out!

I got the Southside Rice it's good, not amazing.. has a bit of a weird taste. I also got the Shrimp Brochette (bacon wrapped) which was flavorless and chewy/overcooked, also VERY oily. I wanted crawfish but they didn't have it. The benches/booths are not comfortable. If you stay for a while, it will hurt your butt.

Stopped in for lunch and had a good meal. Nice variety on the brunch menu; drink selection also looked interesting, although we didn’t imbibe. Would definitely eat there again.

I've been wanting to try this restaurant after coming across their IG page almost a year ago. I ended up at a new job that's only 15 minutes away so I was finally able to make the trip. I'd have to say that the staff was very pleasant and welcoming. The atmosphere was also quite nice. The level of service was also pretty good. However, I didn't enjoy the food. I ordered the Taiwanese wings at first and didn't like the taste. I was almost as if the wings weren't fully cooked. They honestly didn't look like they were either. It was my lunch break and I was hungry so I asked to have the calamari go so that I'd at least have something to eat. I started to eat them while driving and didn't like the taste either. They lacked seasoning in the batter. The only good thing was the dip. Maybe it's just my taste buds but I didn't enjoy the food.

Was in Houston visiting and googled seafood and came across this restaurant, by far the best I’ve had. Everything was well seasoned and very affordable. I wish they would add crab legs to the seafood boils it would be amazing.

The garlic noodles are my favorite and I always add crab meat in it... pure deliciousness! The brussel sprouts are also on my "go-to" list. They're cooked to the right amount of tenderness and crisp. The sauce is the perfect addition to the brussel sprouts! Though I've only tried a few items (constantly lol), I gave them 5 stars because of the consistency of flavor every single time.

So I came here for the first time a few months ago and didn't really enjoy the food but I always give restaurants another chance and it's still the same. A few things did taste good like the K poppers and the the oxtail. The dynamite shrimp was good but that was it. I also had fish with rice and the fish was very bland and boring. The service was amazing. Everyone was very nice but the food is just ok. Restaurant is nice and they have a decent happy hour. You should definitely give them a try.

Garlic noodles with shrimp was very tasty. Shrimp, peeled with tails on, were cooked just right. Lots of garlic but it was roasted and crunchy, so not too strong. Make sure you ask for the little Thai peppers on the side! They are really spicy. Efficient and professional service.

I stopped in here for happy hour. I've been here once before for take out and it was good. This time sitting in was a great experience for me. The bartender had a great personality and attitude. The happy hour menu is good! The spicy boudain balls was delicious and the perfect spicy kick. I'm definitely getting those every time I go back. The calamari was different... in a good way. It had a different flavor not sure how they did it but I'm here for it. The calamari was also cooked just right. It wasn't chewy or anything just perfect. My favorite was the cucumber drink. Bomb!! It was not crowded I assume the word is not out there yet about this gem but it won't take long.

Decent size restaurant and nice customer service. Very chill environment. Uncle Phil was probably the best dish we ordered. It was flavorful and not dry. The meat was thinly sliced and not too dry. The garlic aioli gave the cheesesteak a good flavor. Alfredo pasta with crispy chicken was decent. The pasta sauce sort of tasted like a mixture of Alfredo and gravy mixed. It wasn't the best but it wasn't bad either. Chicken skins was spicy and crispy. Fingerling calamari was one of the worst to me. It had a very fishy smell and the pieces were too big and stuck together. Taiwanese wings with loaded fries came out super fresh but the flavor had too much of the five spice flavor. It was almost like the Taiwanese popcorn chicken. Overall, decent restaurant and pricing.
Hands down, the best Vietnamese crawfish I’ve ever had. Happy hour everyday (closed Mondays) from Open to 6:30! Tons of different food and drink selections for everyone.

Not sure why I haven't stopped by this place until last night. I pass by it all the time Everything we tried was amazing! From the shrimp toast, to the crispy juicy wings (lime pepper is 10/10) and their crawfish was huge!!!! Very flavorful. Service was fast and the servers were super attentive. Good job guys. We will be back for sure to try other menu items.

Full bar and options for everyone's palette if you're in the Sugarland area. Price is fair and reasonable. -Fries are cooked perfectly. -Alfredo Pasta (no red pepper flakes) my kids and I enjoyed it. I like that its not fettuccini, so the spaghetti is not overwhelming. - Shrimp Toast, its not overwhelming big in size, more like a bite size appetizer. Its good and more on the sweet chili taste to me. -Uncle Phil was a hit -Southside Hot Chicken Sandwich was fire. -Brussel Sprouts- a nice hint of Miso good -Kpop Bread- never got to try the Korean garlic butter cream cheese that went Viral on the internet, but for sure its tasty at Spice Ln. -its Crawfish season- size was good, must trust try garlic butta + viet cajun My books to come back, accommodates my kids and group of 10.

Food is good and would definitely come back! The da bomb sandwich is 5 yummy lightly fried shrimp with the perfect sauce and just the right amount of spice. The uncle Phil was good too with tender beef, fresh bell peppers and not overpowered with cheese! The husband still thinks Hoggs and Chicks has the best Philly though ( also beats the Philly at Texas Biergartens). Brussel sprouts are more on the sweet side so I loved them and husband thought they were good too. Calamari was unique with a basil kick. Overall, the food is good but portions are small, so we easily had a $50 lunch with 2 sandwiches, 2 sides and 1 drink, and had just enough food. Frose was awesome! Nicely frozen and smooth with a sweet, little bit of a lychee taste. Loved it and definitely worth the happy hour price of $7. Outdoor seating is a few picnic tables outside which at lunch time was in the shade of the building. Indoor seating has several tables, including some booths. Service is friendly and attentive as they quickly take your order and bring out plates, extra napkins, and water.
