Purdueenginerd Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Went here this weekend. Crowd was a bit douchey for my tastes. (Friday night). Waited 30 minutes for a drink-- they ended up giving my girlfriend and I free drinks and shots (35 dollars worth to be exact).Not an awful place, not great. Interesting drink menu and an assortment of edible shots were neat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Z Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Been a couple times. Decent food, especially for a bar. It's upbeat and a good change of pace from some of the other bars. I stuck with beer, so I can't elaborate on the specialty shots except that they look neat. It's ideal if you don't want go to a nice restaurant but don't want to stay at home.

rci2145 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I went there 2 nights ago. I liked the overall concept and atmosphere. Their specialty drinks were not worth the money though. Bad recipes and come in a jar full of ice. If I'm paying 10 bucks for a drink, I don't want 15 ice cubes melting in it as I drink it. I think the place has potential if they iron out the kinks.

august948 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 (edited) $26 of it is the "processing fee".

Businesses that are locked in to a lease will sometimes say this so they can extract all their furniture and equipment before the landlord changes the locks. The Good Life joins Warhal's in the list of bars that have both opened and closed in 2013 in Midtown.

rci2145 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 I never went back to Good Life since my first visit in March. It is a bad location for a bar due to the strip mall. Worhols is located across from the Greyhound station and the Crackdonald's. Not much chance for them either. There are too many better options.

hindesky Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 A New Pizzeria That Slings Pies Until 4 A.M. Will Open in Midtown Houston Dallas export Zalat is expected to make its debut this summer by Amy McCarthy Apr 19, 2021, 9:36am CDT Zalat, a rapidly growing, Dallas-born pizza chain known for its creatively topped pies, will soon arrive in Houston. The restaurant is set to open its doors at 510 Gray Street later this year, marking the chain’s first expansion out of DFW. “Houston was the most obvious choice for us,” founder Khanh Nguyen said in a statement. “We think many Houstonians love and appreciate great food that is served without pretense, and that’s exactly who we are.” Nguyen also has ties to Houston — he attended Klein Forest High School and the University of Houston before heading north to Dallas. As far as the pies are concerned, expect chewy, thin-crust pizzas topped with everything from classic pepperoni to elote-style corn, Nashville hot chicken, and pickles. There’s also a pho-inspired pie appropriately called the “Pho Shizzle.” Folks who dig dipping their pizza into ranch dressing should be especially excited — the restaurant’s “Srirancha,” a mix of sriracha and ranch, is a favorite among Zalat fans. Since it opened in 2015, Zalat has expanded from a stoner-friendly pizzeria to a major player in Dallas’s pizza scene, where it currently operates more than 10 locations. Whether or not it will have the same staying power as Cane Rosso, the Dallas-based pizzeria that opened in the Heights in 2016, remains to be seen. No official opening timeline has been announced just yet for Zalat’s debut in Houston, but expect it to arrive sometime this summer. Stay tuned for an opening date. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder which suite they are renting. River Oaks Cleaners is the only available spot that I know of, but when I saw this I immediately thought of the "cursed" suite One Dim Sum occupies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as they don't take the Japanese BBQ Gyu-Kaku or BBW spots I'm good. Now that I have both doses of the covid vaccine, Gyu-Kaku is one of the first places I used to frequent that I want to go back to. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
