I'm only here for one more night and not familiar with the area. Dinner suggestions? No preference for price or type of cuisine.

Didn't post in food and drink board because I want to eat within the next hour. Thanks in advance.

Goodson's in Tomball was featured on Diners, Drive inns,and Dives or Man vs. Food. Any way it is very good and close to the festival.

Good call. Excellent, inexpensive meal, which is good since I spent way too much money for this weekend trip.

I can't believe that people actually question Houston's culinary excellence. A huge city with a ton of ethnic eateries. It would take a serious food aholic a long time to sample the great food in Houston.

Mexican - Chuys
Steak - Pappas or if you want a little touristy but still good - Taste of Texas
Asian - Um Nit Noi was my favorite

If price is not of the issue I've heard that Killen's might be your best bet for steak.

I like Perry's myself. Lot of great steak places in Houston though.
