A 10-minute drive to enjoy some great Mexican food here at Los Cucos. This is in the same shopping area as Adriatic. My favorite is the beef fajita nachos with extra beef. We like to sit at the bar here, but they have tables and booths as well.

A 10-minute drive for hand tossed New York style pizza. The whole family works here, and it's fun to watch them make the pizzas. It's no-frills and small, but there are a few tables, or just take out or deliver. Feel free to bring a bottle of wine. They will provide an opener and glasses. Pizza, spaghetti, even ice cream is available here.

This is a delicious hamburger/chicken strips/crawfish when it is in season place that is very rustic and comfortable. You order at the counter and the server will come to make sure your experience is superb. We always ask for our fries to come out hot. Our family has been dining here for 30 years. Our adult kids played in the same sandbox!

Driving

If you are driving in Houston, drive assertively. Pay attention. If it is your turn to go, then go. The friendly drivers in Houston generally let you merge together like a zipper. Make sure to give a wave to the person that let you in. If you miss your exit, we have feeder roads that run beside a freeway, just take the next exit and U-turn to get back on track.
