Famous Po-Boy |

This popular Northwest deli serves up more than 100,000 sandwiches a month to hungry Houstonians. The atmosphere is friendly and comfortable, and appeals to most casual diners. Outdoor seating is a treat in fair weather, and the takeout service is always popular.

Constant flow of customers |
2914 West TC Jester Blvd Houston, TX 77018 United States +1 713 520 7655 |
Once the only significant bagel parlor in town, this small cafe is now holding its own against a swarm of competition. Expect to battle a constant flow of customers during peak breakfast and lunch times, but you will agree that it is worth it. Bagels are available in a variety of yummy flavors and are served with equally yummy spreads, including lox. For a lunch that will truly inspire, try one of the onion bagels with deli meat and all the trimmings. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Delicious Vegetarian Options |
6003 Richmond Ave Houston, TX 77057 United States +1 713 266 8692 |
Set in a log cabin on the bustling Richmond Strip, this pizzeria serves up pizza pies that are more than memorable. The rustic interior adds to the feeling of warmth that invades your body from the second you walk in the door. This is a great place to enjoy a casual meal with family and friends. Pizzas are served with a large variety of toppings. Vegetable lovers will want to take a bite out of the deep-dish vegetarian with jalapenos. It is much healthier than the average pizza, but it still packs a flavorful punch. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Superb Museum District deli |
4621 Montrose Blvd Houston, TX 77006 United States +1 713 528 3737 |
This is the last open deli in what used to be a chain of delis. It still features the tray and line routine for which it has always been famous and ample seating is available. Sit inside or outside on the breezy patio, either way the atmosphere is relaxing. Have them create a sandwich direct from your imagination. You choose the bread, meat, cheese and toppings. Try the strawberries with homemade sweet cream for a light dessert. Cookies and cheesecakes are also available if you prefer a richer taste. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Inside Neiman Marcus |
2600 Post Oak Blvd Houston, TX 77056 United States +1 713 621 7100 http://www.neimanmarcus.com/st... |
Located on the top floor of Neiman Marcus, this cafe is a hidden oasis. Always busy, it is a lunch spot where patrons will wait for a table no matter what. Of course, it certainly helps that you can shop while waiting. Now that is convenience. Try one of the light salad selections, or put your diet on the line with a burger or seafood choice. The sea bass is positively scrumptious. Pricing is high, but the food is worth the expense. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Bits of everything |
3200 Kirby Drive Houston, TX 77098 United States +1 713 522 3994 http://www.cafe-express.com/ww... |
Stepping up to a counter and ordering before sitting down may not be what you had in mind, but the atmosphere is chatty and the food is worth a few minutes of effort. Outdoor seating is also available in fair weather. Generous salads, roasted chicken, designer burgers and over sized pasta bowls are all created to please. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Heart of West University |
6119 Edloe St Houston, TX 77005 United States +1 713 666 4302 |
This is a genuine hole in the wall that regulars have tried to keep secret, but to no avail. Gradually word has gotten out and the place is becoming more and more popular. Go early or you will be in line forever and might end up eating your lunch outside on the curb. A chalkboard menu offers a variety of sandwiches and salads. Definitely try the Thai chicken salad. It is so good it has become one of the most popular catered dishes in Houston. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Vegetarian crowd-pleasers |
2243 Richmond (at Portsmouth) Houston, TX 77098 United States +1 713 526 5460 |
Mystical art adorns the walls of this health-nut paradise that has been taking care of Houston hearts for many years. Those with artistic spirits are particularly attracted to the somewhat Bohemian atmosphere. Outside dining on a shady deck is extremely popular in fair weather. A few unhealthy menu options are available—think hefty hamburger—but vegetarian choices like the spinach and mushroom enchiladas are the true crowd-pleasers. Even the desserts manage to be tempting without overwhelming the body with fat and calories. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Greek and Middle Eastern Accents |
14075 Memorial Dr Houston, TX 77079 United States +1 281 493 1520 http://www.hungryscafe.com/ |
Eclectic and fun, this popular bistro offers some interesting menu twists to match the atmosphere. Affluent businessmen and women from the nearby "energy corridor" fill the restaurant to capacity during lunch, but the crowd is usually a little more diverse in the evenings. Both Greek and Middle Eastern accents make their presence felt on the interesting menu. Try a delicious gyro or one of the many chicken or fish heart-healthy selections. Beer and wine are both available to quench your thirst. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Famous Muffulettas! |
10321 Katy Freeway Houston, TX 77024 United States +1 713 467 2007 http://www.jasonsdeli.com/inde... |
Both the decor and the counter service have a bit of an impersonal feel to them, but, once you have settled, the feeling quickly goes away. The Muffulettas, reported to be the best to be found west of New Orleans, are the main attraction. In addition to sandwiches, the menu also offers loaded baked potatoes, a full salad bar and a variety of freshly made soups. Alcohol is not available. Review © 2007, Wcities |
