was not expecting this…..I have been to lots of different local cuisine, and Z lounge definitely hit different, something unique around Houston.
It’s all prepared when you order and fresh, taste like my grandma’s food, I’ve heard that Haitian food is the best but now I see why. I had the GRIOT 🤤, the GREENS🤯, the FRIED BEEF, which was a good way to try a few different meats. The rice, OMG.
They were all so good and under priced. Had for for days and spent under $50. I also had a side of FRIED PLANTAINS with that spicy PiKLIZ, yooooo it’s worth trying, Z’s is one of the best I’ve had at any restaurant in Houston. You can do take out or seat and listens to some good music. Sammy take your order, I think she is the owner, nice and polite person, very friendly staff. and AGAIN the prices are quite reasonable for what you are getting. I cannot wait to go back again while I’m in Houston, and I would highly...
Read moreI ordered legume and didn’t expect spinach stew with carrots only. The legume was disgusting. This is not how legume is suppose to look like nor taste like. I will stick to Sonya kreyol kitchen instead. I was giving place a try out but if I saw the pic of legume look like this o would never buy it. The taste and look is mediocre this is not Haitian food! Legume is made with cabbage, eggplant , coyote, spinach, beef or pork.
The rice had no salt and Grenada drink did not taste like passion fruit. This was a major fail. I suggest they change the cook. I threw the plate away and purchase Sonia kreyol food. Don’t waste your money or time on this place. The food is terrible, I regret going there. The plaintains are black n overcooked. I sent pic to my Haitian friend in Miami who owns a restaurant she laughed and asked me if the cook is a Haitian because the food is a disgrace...
Read moreIt’s food, but it is not Haitian food. There is A LOT of room for improvement. I fell for the Instagram page/pictures and was fooled. The plantain looks and tastes like it was fried in old oil or the same oil that fried the meat. Or a fried plantain that a beginner was just learning how to make when you’re an adolescent. What Haitians call, “ yon banane soté” Haitian baked macaroni is not made with elbow macaroni- the cheese sauce is just peppered cheese over elbow macaroni boiled with oil and salt🤢🤦🏽♀️. The meat was not fried properly it just tasted like boiled in spices meat. The pikliz is just cabbage overly soaked in vinegar. The pâté korde is very doughy and overly fried. Either improve or please don’t advertise this as Haitian/Caribbean food. I was looking forward to enjoying this Haitian spot, but was...
