Houston's This Is It

The food was ok to me. This was my second visit. The first time it was really good. I went on a Sunday so maybe it was busy and the food may have been rushed. It's a black-owned business as well. They were cleaning and asking if you needed help the whole time. That was a plus.They are average price for soul food. I will give them another try.

We took a drive out from Fort Worth and was so excited to see how great it was and it didn't disappoint. We came about 20 minutes after they opened and they we're already busy. We ordered the catfish and smothered turkey leg. Our sides were greens, Mac and cheese, dressing and candied yams. We couldn't finish it all, the portions were too big. We took home the best banana pudding and finished that off tonight. The service was excellent and we will make the trip again.

Omg I'm so full that was so delicious 🤤 I ordered the smothered chicken plate which comes with 3 sides I got cabbage candied yams and Mac and cheese . The portions were very generous the only thing I regret getting what a piece of white meat as one of the 3 pieces, it was not anything compared to the dark meat which was juicy and full of flavor I also got the banana pudding but I wasn't a fan it was a little two watery for my liking but I would definitely eat here again and probably just get a different dessert there's so many to choose from so I do not feel like that was any points lost on their part. All in all I give them five stars because the food was very flavorful all the way through The portions were so big me and my son both at off a plate and we did not even finish it and on a big girl so I can eat lol but it is worth the eat and the prices is not bad at all

Houston’s This Is It soul food restaurant located in the shadows of Texas? Southern University is a staple of the community for more than 60 years. I must admit. I’ve been enjoying the delicious meals for 40 of those 60 years. What I can say is the quality of the food in terms of selection, seasoning, freshness, and portions haven’t changed that entire time. in recent years, they added a daiquiri machine and maybe a television but for the most part in their current location you can still select ox tails, turkey,l wings, fried fish, collards, mac & cheese, black eyed peas, etc. has maintain a level of quality for a very long time. I might add that I feel people of all ethnicities and all races could come here enjoy a meal and I feel very comfortable going in and out of the restaurant and in the restaurant itself.

The restaurant had a line which made me believe the food was great since I was visiting from AZ. All I can say is the sides were GREAT! My smothered pork chops were formidable, like they hadn't had time two simmer in the gravy, but the flavor was good. The portion size wasn't big as I expected since the customers before me had huge portions. The lady who fixed my plate wasn't friendly; she acted like I was a problem when I greeted her. Not only didn't she reply to my hello, but she also had a mean look on her face. Once I got to the register, the gentleman was friendly and polite. The older gentleman, who appeared to be the owner, smiled and greeted me as they sat at the table in the restaurant, which helped ease the frustration of the server and my small portion size. I would return and try something else.
