Torchy's Tacos

    Michael Rypka, the Torchy's founder, opened his first taco truck in Austin, Texas in 2006. Rypka built his business on free chips and homemade salsa and tacos that were quickly labeled as "damn good." This fast food restaurant chain has 50 locations and is still growing. Torchy's Tacos has been dubbed "America's Best Tacos." Aside from tacos, they're also known for their queso and chips. People come here for the fast food tacos, but the breakfast and brunch options are also popular. This fast food restaurant chain has 50 locations and is still growing. They have locations in Colorado, Oklahoma, and Texas, of course.

    Torchy's is available for dine-in, pick-up, and delivery through Uber eats and Doordash. Torchy's has a three to four and a half star rating on average. Because of the large number of locations, it is normal for a chain restaurant to have an average rating.

    Now, I'm from San Antonio, Texas, so I like to think I know good tacos, and Torchy's, in my opinion, doesn't meet those high standards, especially at the prices they charge. Don't get me wrong, the tacos are decently sized, but the flavor just isn't there. The rice is made up of carrots and other cut up vegetables, but it has an odd taste to it. Most people would say it was because of the location I went to, but there was nothing wrong with the location. It appeared to be very sanitized and clean, and the staff was friendly, so it's just how the food is prepared as a whole, which is fine because everything isn't for everyone, and Torchy's Tacos just isn't the best for me. Torchy's Tacos is something I would recommend to anyone. To be honest, no. Only because if I recommend a restaurant, I'm more than likely going to eat there, and I'd rather not waste my money.

Timmy Chan's

     The Chu family first opened Timmy Chan's on Fannin Street and then at Greenway Plaza in Houston in the 1970s. The Chus closed their full-service restaurants in the 1980s and sold the remaining two quick service restaurants, along with the recipes, to two Vietnamese Chinese immigrant families, The Tran and The Dang. To differentiate themselves while keeping Timmy Chan's name alive, they called themselves Timmy Chan's, and The Dang's called their restaurants The Original Timmy Chan's.      Timmy Chan's is known for its American-Chinese cuisine, chicken wings, and Cajun-inspired dishes. To name a few, the most popular items are Garlic Wings, Cajun Shrimp Pasta, Lo Mien, Fried Rice, and Beef with Broccoli. One thing hasn't changed in the last 40 years: the recipe for Wings and Rice. Chan's is Houston's first Chinese restaurant to offer Drive-Thru service. Timmy Chan's is a well-known restaurant in Houston's music scene.      Timmy Chan's...

The MOD Pizza Party

     Scott and Ally Svenson, husband and wife, launched MOD in their hometown of Seattle in 2008. They began to explore whether there was a better way to do pizza and business after being inspired by their own search for quick, affordable, healthful restaurant options for their growing family. Another pizza joint was the last thing the world needed, but perhaps this one will be different. What if everyone could get exactly what they wanted, manufactured fresh on demand and for the cheapest price possible? What if employees were paid as much as they could and given genuine possibilities for advancement, including second chances? All of this sounded fantastic, and Scott and Ally were shortly opening the first MOD Pizza in downtown Seattle.      MOD Pizza is a privately held company with more than 500 outlets as of May 2021. MOD has over 30 different spontaneous toppings, is extremely fast, and always has a set pricing. The pre-made recipes or make your o...

Lotus Seafood

     Lotus Seafood began as a single restaurant, but it swiftly expanded to three more sites in the Houston area. Braeswood, Kirkwood, Pearland, and Veterans are among the communities. With their specialties, the Seafood and Wings immediately became the talk of the town. At all of their sites, the company takes pride in serving fresh local fish. Trout, tilapia, and catfish are among the seafood alternatives, while shrimp, crabs, and oysters are among the shellfish options. Po-boys, Asian noodles, and a selection of chicken wings are available for non-seafood diners.       Lotus Seafood can be ordered online and picked up or delivered using Doordash, Grubhub, or Uber eats. The restaurant is open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and closed on Sundays. With several locations across the city, this seafood spot has developed from a you-buy-it-we-fry-it concept to a cult classic. Lunch and dinner lineups at the original in southwest Houston ar...
