Gristworkz — Restaurant in Houston

My boyfriend and I love to play this game called, "overrated or underrated", and Girstworkz falls on the underrated category.

This place needs more presence in the social media scene cause so many people are missing out on this awesome bar. But then again, I'd rather keep this place a secret.

We have a long list of places we like to go to for bar steak nights and we came across Gristworkz. And let me tell you, ITS WORTH IT! Look, most places you get just the steak and ONE side, whether that's a baked potato or side salad. But here, you get way more than that. I hate that I'm sharing this but its too good to not share how good this place is.

For $25, you get a steak, side salad, roasted corn, baked potato, and buttered sourdough toast. WORTH. IT. PLUS you get half off wine. 5 buckaroos

My only gripe is that the steak isn't consistent. Every time I've asked for medium rare, I've gotten well done every single time. The other sides make up for the overcooked steak. I hope they fix the temp if I say blue...

But wait, there's more.

On top of Wednesday steak nights, there's ALSO so many other deals EVERY SINGLE DAY. Seriously.

There's corn star combo on Mondays, pizza Tuesdays, steak nigh Wednesdays, burger Fridays.

WHAT'S NOT TO LIKE?!

The area is so close to the heights bike trail and its just in a great area overall. The area is quite developed and just up and coming.

These social media influencers are slacking on the social media presence, cause Gristworkz the new hangout spot! But don't you...

Great brewery with a strong menu. Went there for lunch at 11 AM on a Saturday. Ritchie welcomed us to the brewery, then ran through what was on tap and their food offerings before pouring us some of the breweries reverse osmosis water. I hate going somewhere and drinking some funky tap water with my beer l, so this was great.

My beer faces were Who’s Your Paddy? Irish Red and Hot Boi Blueberry/Raspberry Blonde Ale. Both were excellent, with the Side Gig Sour Ale and Gurl Dinner Stout getting honorable mentions. All were very drinkable session beers, great for enjoying in their fresh and open taproom.

For lunch, we opted for a breakfast pizza off the brunch menu and some Brussels sprouts off their normal menu. The breakfast pizza crust had a chewy interior and a crisp exterior, perfectly done. Sausage, egg, and tots were supported by a delicious white sauce. The sprouts were seared in a Szechuan sauce and topped with pickled onions, sesame seeds, and pumpkin seeds. I could have eaten those all day.

Cannot recommend this place enough, and kudos to Richie (beer tender) and Bobby (chef) for their hospitality, excellent service, and engaging...

So my husband and I went for the F1 race. Saw the reviews so we decided to give it a shot. Arrived at 1030. We were told bar and kitchen won’t start serving til 11am, which is fine. 1045 I see two guys walk away from the bar with beer. 1050 I go to the bar to order mimosas and I was told I couldn’t be served until 11am. The bartender acknowledged that he had already served two patrons and that he had made a mistake… ok. So I sit back down. 1058 am I noticed another patron had received a beer from the bar so I went back and asked if they were serving and was again told no. They could not explain to me why they were only serving some patrons while denying others. Really ruined...
