While the Duck is a great music venue, don't overlook their Saturday morning breakfast/lunch. We went last weekend and watched the OU vs UT game (who knew they opened at 11am on Sat) . The outside patio has been redone and there is now a covered area with 2 TVs. It is a great spot to sit outside, have breakfast (their pancakes rock!), watch some college football, all the while sipping on mimosas (or wine, or beer, or coffee :)
We will definitely be back!!!
Pros: Great Outside Area, Good Breakfast, Friendly Staff

Whether or not Star Pizza itself calls this a "Montrose" location, it is not in Montrose. At least not the Montrose that most of us want to avoid when thinking about who is handling our pizzas. 59 and Shepherd is hardly "Montrose" so give it a rest already.
Pros: Great pizza
Cons: None

Vertigo Hair is by far the best Salon I have ever been to. For about 5 years I would get my hair done somewhere else and then switch everytime to somewhere different because I would never be satisfied with the turnout. I have long blonde hair that I did not think should be difficult to work with but it was for every salon until I went to Melanie at Vertigo Hair. I have been going for about a year now and would never go anywhere else. She has always done exactly what I wanted and I would trust her opinion about my own hair, which is hard to do with many stylists. The Salon takes great care of you, the staff is all very friendly and none of the stylists rush through your appointment. Your hair is just as important to them as it is to you! I would HIGHLY reccommend Vertigo Hair to everyone!
Pros: Highlights, Friendly Staff, Cuts, Makeup, ect.

The shows at the Mucky Duck are never sub-par only over par. We love the music and the fun entertainment. The atmosphere is loose and slightly loud, but when someone performs it is all eyes and attention on them. They give or used to give you change in $2 bills. I haven't seen those in a while. McGonigel really has a great place.

My husband and i have been going to Ra for about a couple of months now. The wait is long, but well worth it. Our first couple of experiences have been bad due to the service, almost wanting to ban Ra sushi, until this one waiter took care of us (Michael). He's really nice, never had to ask for anything as if he could read our minds. Never once ever had to wonder where my waiter was unlike most restaurants that we have been to. For those people who are having a hard time finding a sushi restaurant with fresh sushi and great service, go to RA. Make sure you ask for Michael though or else you might end up with a bad experience. Don't forget to take care of him as well : )
Pros: food and service
Cons: wait time

On my first visit, Felicia colored my hair and took GREAT care of me. She gave me her professional opinion and went a step further to make sure i was taken care of. A bit pricy, but WELL worth it! Everyone was friendly, whether they worked on you or not.I was offered coffee, the environment is friendly and relaxed, not your regular hair salon. THANKS FELICIA!!!!
Pros: Takes good care of new clients
Cons: A bit pricy

I'm a regular, and they have never disappointed. Their salsa is seriously excellent and I haven't found better anywhere in Houston. Good crispy thin chips, and FANTASTIC chicken fajitas with yummy caramelized onions and perfect hot, thin flour tortillas.
Also worth trying: any of the enchiladas and the (very strong) strawberry margarita.
You WILL have to circle for parking at this location and wait up to half an hour near a playground with shrieking kids. Then again, if you are a parent, there is a playground you can send your shrieking kid to while you have a strawberry margarita, so it probably depends on your point of view. So far, have always found the food to be worth the wait.
Pros: great food and drinks
Cons: loud, long waits
