The 7 Best Soul Food Restaurants In Houston - Houston - The Infatuation

"The food at Butter Funk Kitchen is primarily soul food classics. This Sunnyside spot only has a few tables, but if they're full, a seat at the bar is just as good and gives the best view of the frozen daiquiris on tap. We’ll take a plate of catfish here just for the crunchy ends and deep-fried ribs that make us want to shake the hand of the person on the fryer. The potlicker on the collard greens perfectly balances spice and brine, and we’ve seriously contemplated having the red rice and beans as an entire meal. But we usually order crispy fried okra and dirty rice that’s spicy enough to make us reach for more lemonade." - gianni greene
