Although we did notice about 60% of the place was full of gay men. A few lesbian women as well. May have been the location or just the night?? Also we both had some stomach problems the next day and a little bubble butt.

Wow, the review of this place took an unexpected turn.

Decided to order pizza in the hotel room and take it easy Saturday night and just drink and eat in the room. Ordered a pizza with pepperoni, mushroom, tomatoes, mozzarella, and bell peppers. The ingredients on this thing were so fresh and tasty. The pizza however was very limp and soggy. Maybe we put too many toppings on it?

Bingo. I'll never understand why anyone likes more than 1 or 2 toppings on a pizza.

Petrol Station – About 15 minutes from downtown. This place was our favorite part of the trip. We fell in love with the bar. The location, the menu, the atmosphere, the workers, everything. Tons of beers to choose from. Which was very surprising from a little place. We shared the Rancor burger. It’s at least a half pound patty with cheese, bacon, cheese, bacon, fried egg, and all the toppings. My mouth is watering just typing this. We probably tried a good bit of beers. Had a great time and met some great people there. This will be a place we always visit when in Houston or driving by.

Good thing the kitchen was open when you went. Only time I dropped by there (via an expensive cab ride) the kitchen was closed. They did have a Vietnamese food truck parked outside. Wasn't all that great though. Solid beer selection for sure.

Nice write-ups. Houston food scene gets overlooked by people who never go there or go and don't know where/how to dine.

Bombay is also Indian pizza. The crust is more like a cracker (not a cracker thin crust, an actual cracker). Their food is okay, its about half a block from my office and I got burned out on it after like a month of being here.

Now, the Thai place across the street...

Yea we knew we made a mistake. But we were starving when we ordered it. And slightly intoxicated. So honestly we were lucky we didn't get the whole topping list on the pizza.

Yeah, it was closed last time I went too... although I believe it was earlier that day. A shame too, the burgers are usual really good.

The guy who owns the place started his own brewing company too, called Brash Brewing. They are debuting in Louisiana at Avenue Pub sometime in September.
