Head to the Katy Asian Town H Mart for the gooey Gogi Melt or Gogi Burger, and don't skip the OMG! Fries, the eatery's loaded take on kimchi-and-beef-topped fries with spicy mayo and melted jack cheese. Imbuing stalwart American and Mexican comfort foods with Korean flavors is something of a genius move, and that's made Oh My Gogi one of Houston's most ubiquitous fusion outfits. You might want to also order some tangsuyuk (sweet and sour beef or pork mixed with peppers, onions, and pineapples) to counter the endless slurping. Manna is also one of the few spots-if not the only one-in Houston to enjoy the refreshingly milky and cold soybean noodle soup kongguksu. This brightly appointed space in Spring Branch with friendly service is the place to visit for Korean noodle dishes like nicely salted jajangmyeon (noodles in black bean sauce) and jjamppong (spicy seafood noodles).

Traditional appetizers like corn cheese and vegetable pancakes are worth the extra couple bucks. If feeding a family (with plenty of leftovers), you can't go wrong with either of the three barbecue combos, which offer meats like Prime-cut beef brisket, pork belly, marinated short rib, and a Kobe-like beef cut. If you're wanting Korean barbecue in Asiantown, Lucky Palace is as good as it gets.

So go to the 18th Street location for group-friendly plates of ultra-crispy chicken, plus wildly fun dishes like toowoomba pasta (topped with everything from shrimp and crawfish to a Pontchartrain Alfredo sauce to wonton noodles and red chili flakes) and chicken Parmesan made with fried cheese curds and 'Canadian' wonton noodles. The happening Korean fried chicken and fusion-friendly restaurant started in Midtown and expanded to the Heights in early 2020, but during Covid-19 the original closed permanently. Other flavors include red hot pepper, spicy garlic, and chicken topped with “snow” (raw onions covered in sweet aioli).

Inside a relatively unassuming space in a Spring Branch strip mall, I tried the garlic soy and curry fried chicken both were deeply satisfying and served with a bowl of pickled daikon radish to cool down the numbing heat. Choong Man does that seriously crispy, double-fried bird just right. Out in Spring Branch is the first Texas location of this wildly popular South Korean fried chicken chain (that also has locations in the Delaware-Maryland-Virginia corridor). For more fun, be sure to order kimchi pancakes and japchae (glass noodles with pork and vegetables) also, those forgoing the 'cue should look into the sunny-side egg-topped and surprisingly cheesy kimchi fried rice. While none of those things factor in if you're ordering takeout, take heart that a variety of well-sourced beef cuts like short rib, ribeye, a prime cut, and dry-aged ribeye doesn't hurt either. It's challenging for a Korean barbecue restaurant to stand out in bulgogi-rich Spring Branch, but relative newcomer Bori manages to be a cut above the rest because of its deep bar offerings including a fine roster of soju and Korean wine its efficient grilling system (vents are so close to the heat that the smoke never gets close to you) and its snappy and friendly service.
