The Best Restaurants in the Houston Suburbs Right Now | Eater Houston

"The beloved late chef Alex Au-Yeung opened Phat Eatery in Katy in 2018, focusing on Malaysian street food staples like roti canai and satay skewers. Au-Yeung succeeded in making it a must-try destination, ultimately expanding its seat capacity to account for its popularity (a second location opened in the Woodlands in June 2024). Trendy yet casual and affordable, diners should prepare to order a slew of signature dishes, like its big and juicy curry-sauced crawfish, shrimp dumplings, and house favorites like sizzling black pepper beef, and Hainanese chicken with a trio of sauces for dipping. Visit its more spacious location in The Woodlands, which features a dining room with wide windows that give views into the areas lush wooded areas." - Brittany Britto Garley
