Have to make a one day drive to Houston for business.

Need recommendations for lunch. I was thinking either BBQ or Mexican. Nothing fancy just something casual.

TIA


We decided on BBQ and went to The Pit Room. Very solid.




Mrs. Who ordered the 3 meat dinner with brisket, pork rib, and pulled pork. Sides were Mac n cheese and beans. The rib was the star of the plate. The brisket was ok with 2 of the slices being lean and somewhat dry. The 3rd slice was a fatty piece which was juicy and delicious. Mac n cheese was pedestrian and the beans were bit spicy for Mrs. Who.



I ordered one of each kind of taco and an order of of the okra. Each taco (pork, chicken, and beef)was dressed differently. Their tortillas were homemade which was a big plus for me. The pork taco was dressed with pickled onions, salsa verde, and cojita cheese (bottom right in the photo) was by far the best. The brisket was solid. I did not care much for the chicken. The grilled okra was excellent with a nice char flavor.




Thanks to everyone for the suggestions.

Lupe Tortilla for Tex-Mex
Hugo's for Mexican.

Skip the BBQ.

What part of Houston?
It all depends on the part of town or far you willing to travel.
