Roswell’s Saloon — Restaurant in Houston

Roswell’s – Houston, TX Reviewed by: A Time Traveler with a Buzz and a Tamagotchi

Houston, we have a problem: There’s just too much damn fun happening at Roswell’s—and I regret nothing.

From the moment we stepped through the portal (aka the front door), we were launched into a ’90s fever dream fueled by cocktails, neon madness, holographic art, and enough nostalgia to make your inner child weep glitter. It’s like Lisa Frank got drunk with Daft Punk and opened a bar inside a lava lamp.

Glow-in-the-dark murals? Check. Arcade games that still require skill and snacks? Check. A dance floor pulsing with the energy of a middle school sleepover gone rogue? Absolutely. If you’ve ever wanted to throw back a shot while locking eyes with a holographic alien, congratulations—this is your new church.

Let’s talk drinks. They were just the right kind of ridiculous: brightly colored, possibly radioactive, and somehow still delicious. I don’t know what was in the shot called “Area 151,” but I felt like I got probed—in a good way.

The only thing wetter than my cocktails was my nostalgia. We laughed. We danced. We played like it was 1999 and Blockbuster still existed. By the end of the night, I half expected someone to hand me a Capri Sun and a participation ribbon.

Final Rating: 5 out of 5 alien abductions. Roswell’s isn’t just a bar—it’s a cosmic collision of retro chaos and boozy bliss. Whether you come to party with your past or just vibe in glow paint under a UFO ceiling, this place will abduct your expectations and return them drunk...

So glad that my crew and I got to check it out on your 1st night of your grand opening.

Cool concept. Luv the pastel and neon glowy decor, nice patio, indoor communal long table for peeps to mix and mingle and meeting new friends. The cocktail menu is interesting with nice use of different glassware.

The main neon mural is a nice photogenic spot.

Luv the 2nd floor that overlooking the ground floor. And the entrance to the washroom is cool.

Only a few small nits is that...when you sell beer and cocktails at one single bar, it takes a long time to get drinks. Would luv to see a 2nd bar station at the 2nd floor or possibly a line just to buy beer (express line) so we don't have to wait for the cocktails mixing if we don't intend to buy cocktails.

Also, would prefer more edm or space/ufo music vs 80s and 90s slow jam that didn't really fit the vibe. Otherwise, this is an awesome...

Meanie Dj; requested for some 80s and the I'm good song, plus some good jams, but was told by Dj Girrrl Parts nope no 80s and be told play your songs in your car on the way home, rude and disappointing! Hours upon hours to make my skirt uv reactive and can't even get a song. Drove more than 30min to come here thinking my hard work would pay off but NO! Had to go home and play Dj! Almost fell through the toilet because the toilet seat wasn't on there (it was off to the side). After playing 70s music for the first hour this dj kept randomly playing them for the next hour and when requested an 80s song I was told that she doesn't have any, but eventually plays the SOS Band: Take Your Time and even repeated some songs within 3 hours. Nowhere on Facebook or your website did it say it...
