- AAprilVIPHouston •15 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoReally good wagyu steak frites and wagyu tacos. We also tried the hummus which was really good and the lettuce wraps. I was surprised to like the lettuce wraps that had a lot of mushrooms, which I don’t like that much, but the way they were seasoned had me liking them. Staff was friendly and attentive.More infoThe WellPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.8
