Christian's Tailgate Bar & Grill

Ronnie is one of the coolest bartenders! Food was great! Club sandwich and their Cole-slaw is to die for! First time eating here but I know this is not the last time. Great place, great vibes! #htownshiddentressure

Found a great weekend spot! A bunch of us decided to gather here to catch some football 🏈 games. The atmosphere was chill but also busy with a large variety of TVs featuring all different games - so no matter your team, you’d be able to watch. Our waitress was quick, efficient, and extremely nice. The food was average but I do have to mention their menu has an enormous list to choose from, which is cool! Christian’s is supposedly known for their burgers, 🍔 but a few people at our tables ordered them and rated them a 6 out of 10. The egg rolls & frito pies were a delicious option. In the end I can say this place is worth a visit! Happy Eating! 🙌

The fried bacon burger was as advertised. All fresh ingredients, huge 1/3 pound burger cooked medium rare like I asked. Hot crispy fries, crisp veggies. Literally a perfect burger. Angie the bartender ( I think that was her name I forgot it was busy and the day shift ) gave me lots of recommendations and we talked about San Antonio. Really cool atmosphere like a dive bar but hiding a really good restaurant. I live in San Antonio but if I’m back in Houston any time soon I would definitely go back. Cool area on midtown too.

I've driven by this place hundreds of times and never stopped because it seemed to challenging to park. I stopped today and got a sweet spot out front. I'm out on a solo bar crawl (yes, on a Wednesday...don't judge me!) and this is stop #1. The atmosphere is is for sure a vibe. It has a grungy, dive-bar feel with lots of games and "stuff" to do while hanging out. The service was just ok. The bartender did serve me almost as soon as I walked up but she didn't really check back. I had one shot and closed the tab but I was still hanging out at the bar. She kind of got wrapped up in conversation with people at the other end of the bar and never quite got back to me. From my perspective, for a better service rating, I would've liked to have been asked if I wanted another drink or if I wanted water. I'm actually hungry and painted on the outside of the building is " best burgers in town" but I wasn't even offered a menu. This is NOT a bad review. It's a growth review.

Karaoke is fun here - it’s a small ish bar - it does say on a wall that it’s the best burger in town / yet to try and will update my review once I do ! Drinks are cheap and $5 shots are always on special. Outside seating has tvs and I believe people come here to watch local games sports etc

We went there for the Buffalo Bills tailgate the day before the Texans/Bills game. It was so fun to see so many Bills fans gathered together. The food and drink prices were decent. We no longer live in the Buffalo area and they were grilling Sahlen's hot dogs, so that was a treat as they are not available where we live. The place was packed, both inside and at all the stations set up outside. Although the lines were long, it was expected and we had a great time.

They have happy hour for food and drinks which seems like a good deal at first, but in reality, they skimp out on the portions and drinks. So you’re actually paying way more than what it is worth. The drinks they serve are the tiniest, most watered down drinks in the city- mostly ice. Also, they advertised brand liquor, but it turned out to be well alcohol they put in the brand bottles. Stop with the false advertising. Please do better.

Had such a fun time here the other night with my friends. The food was decent, but the customer service was amazing. Outside has SUPER powerful fans, that definitely help with the heat. Chill place.

Decent wings. Fun staff. Both times I went to Houston for a Bills game we came here. GO BILLS

Christian's is pretty consistent in what it does during the day. Service isn't super friendly but they get you what you need. Decent prices. Food choice I got was really good! First time having their steak fingers and it was a big W for me. Good gravy, not that watery stuff. This location seems relaxed and has their normal arcades which is neat.

Super fun, great service. Loved the deal on the night that we went. We didn't get any food but that I had really cool shots and at a great price. We had karaoke and regular music when we went and we had so much fun. I actually went and sang for the first time so that's how you know I had a good time... I usually just watch my friends !

Love their burgers and fries. Great place to watch a game and have a drink with friends .

I always love coming here. The vibe, food, and drinks are always good and reasonably priced. I ordered an appetizer platter, wings, and a salad. During lunch the salad was 10$ so that was exciting! I ordered the soy ginger dressing. That was something new, and I wish I had the instructions to make it.

I love going here they have such a good happy hour the food is fantastic the vibes are awesome! Been going there for about 4 years always have some cool event or theme! Staff is very attentive always making sure we're okay and have everything we need

The burgers overall were good, the southwest eggs rolls were cold when we got them. We went on a Sunday around noon and it was pretty empty. Drink specials were pretty decent too! Because the Coogs were number 2 they served $2 white claws!

Good Wings! Cold beer! The Buffalo Bills on the tube. What the heck could go wrong? They don't try to push more drinks on Bills fans ! Five stars

Very FUN bar to watch Buffalo Bill's games! Can get Sahlen's Hot Dogs, Labatt's Beer! Feels like Buffalo :)

I use to love coming here! It was always a good time with decent bar food. I prefer the one Downtown but this location is slightly closer to me. Open seating. Music (sometimes with a dj), patio and dogs. I don't mind dogs but I do think the waitresses should take into consideration not to pet the animals before delivering the food. I ordered a pickle back shot (with Jameson). Also got the egg rolls with are AMAZING and always hot. I was NOT impressed by the sliders. The chicken slider was like a chicken patty which did not look good at all. The beef sliders were ok. Wouldn't recommend the sliders AT ALL. Fries were salty. I should have sent the whole meal back. Not my jam anymore.

Love coming to CT, Manager Shawn and Bella are best. M the server is amazing. Food is good and perfect to catch an Astros game

The new manager has turned this place around for the better. The staff is great. Bella, Em , Chaney, and Veronica are my favorites! Burgers are great and the grilled chicken in buffalo sauce is my go to. Lots of tv's to watch games and just a chill neighborhood vibe. Great drink specials and Super dog friendly as well!

I work over at Komodo's next door and I like coming here on my day off. Drinks are superb. Ask for Denise. Great service!

Staff was very friendly, dj was awesome, happy hour was great, the only thing I had an issue with is the bouncer. He was ridiculously rude for no reason. I've never in my life met someone at work that felt it was okay to talk to women or anyone the way he did. To the bouncer: nobody pulled your arm to be a bouncer at a bar so if you're so miserable find something else to do or work on your manners. And he wasn't just having a bad night, apparently he acts like this on the daily.

Came here on a Saturday, early evening for some drinks. Was greeted by our server pretty quickly and she was very attentive. The drinks were decent, pretty basic, but good enough. We also tried the chicken quesadillas and they were pretty good too. I wish they were served with some guac, but I mean, it's not a dealbreaker. Toward the end of the night they started karaoke and that was my que to exit lol. It was just a little loud, but looked really fun. This place has a pretty nice patio area and games around that you can play, including a huge connect 4, so that's always nice. I'll def be back. Oh yeah...parking. I don't even have to say it.

I love love love this place! Great burgers, and $.75 oysters? Well worth the visit and budget-friendly! Visit every time I am in town! Mushroom Swiss Burger rocks!

Pretty good food! Loved the southwest egg rolls! They also have some games that our kids enjoyed :)

Visited here about three years ago and thoroughly enjoyed my time here - I sang a few songs, had a few margaritas, and called it a night. Came back a few weeks ago and boy I must've matured greatly since my initial visit. Everyone looked younger (college-ish), the ​place was packed, took about 45 minutes to get a drink, someone left their phone on my table, young ladies posing and taking selfies, and no waitresses tending the tables. Karaoke was still fun; we had a lot of performers, shower singers, and back-in-times crooners - but I wasn't motivated to drunkenly regale my unsuspecting victims because my drink was weak. Parking is tricky - my recommendation is to make the block and come up the side street if you are unable to find a spot out front; There are a few parking spots there. One major issue for me was that when ordering a shot, one of the patrons knocked it down and the bartender did not even offer to replace it. Not a bad spot but not a great one either.

Manager will allow bouncer to touch girls inappropriately because he will say "o I was just pushing her off a guy". When I'm reality he full palmed my friend's boob to the point it fell out of her bra... that's not just pushing her off a guy. Why is he allowed as a grown man to touch a girl in the first place. And the manager did absolutely nothing and sided with the bouncer. She does not take sexual assault seriously. Will never support this bar again. If I could give 0 stars I would

When I'm in Houston, great place to stop at and have some great food with your family and be happy. Just one of those places you just have to stop at at.

If you work downtown it's a nice place to take a stroll to for lunch. Burgers fresh and friendly atmosphere. Had some small fruit flies near the soda fountain on my last visit which were annoying. But it didn't distract from a solid meal.

Came a few times during covid just to grab some drinks, they are very good about enforcing masks and social distancing. Parking is very tough at times, only street is available. Service is better than average, but it is slow. I literally just came here to say the Fried Oreos with the Ice Cream is absolutely delicious.

The bucket deals on Wednesday are insane! Emily helped us out and was AMAZING!! Love this place!

Went here to try because a friend of mine works here! The atmosphere here reminds me of Venice Beach. Very chill and laid back! We were seated right away and was attended to. I started off with an order of parmesan fries and a peach midtown mule, both was so delicious! The fries so was crispy how I like them and the drink just hit the spot. For food I got fried shrimp tacos with the jalapeño and cilantro sauce for dipping and both combination was SOOO good! I recommend that sauce for everything because it's that good. My boyfriend got the bacon burger and it was okay to me, the tacos was much more delicious. We got some pixie dust shots and that was really good too! There was karaoke happening shortly after and the vibe was just nice and fun. Everyone was enjoying the people singing and just being their hype man. I will definitely be back to enjoy the vibe again.

The service was despicable. It took them 30 minutes to serve 3 tacos in an almost empty restaurant. The server Leslie R was unprofessional and disrespectful. Won't be returning to this restaurant.

Our band played at Christian's tailgate bar and Grill a February 21. The management which usually pays us immediately after playing wanted to send us a check by mail a week later. I informed them we did not do business that way. They continue to back slide and will not pay us for our performance. Apparently the manager at tailgate thinks the matter is too small and no one's gonna bother to file a small claims with them. We will not play that venue again and I recommend any band be forewarned that plays at this location at 1010 North Highway six.

This is the game day spot FOSHO! Awesome prices, great quesadillas.. what more could I'd a guy ask for?? hello I want to be pets gonna

What else can one do to describe a hole-in-the-wall?? it's dark, kinda dingy, the booth cushions are torn up, and it looks like bikers recent the place. Yet, I adore it. It's a sports bar, that's a simple classification if it, but it's so much more. It's open seating, so take a seat and be ready. I was immediately greeted by a nice guy (never caught his name, short cut hair, nice mustache) and I got ready to order. I got the 2 Hotdog plate, came with chili (with beans, hell yeah), queso, and diced onions, and it came with a whole lot of fries. The heat and sauciness of the chili made the hotdog buns fall apart pretty quick, but that was an easy fix; just make bootleg chili fries. I dumped everything on top of the fries and wow, I can only imagine how good it would have tasted normally, because I could have never imagine a simple dish like chili dogs being so well done. I asked for a fork to reduce the mess, cleaned my plate, paid a relatively small bill, and went on with my day with a smile. The term "Looks can be deceiving" is always thrown around in a negative context, but in the case of Christian's' Tailgate, I think it has the opposite effect. The environment, the food, the service, all great, no complaints from me, if you're in the area, stop by and dig in.

Nice chill vibe food/drink are Five dollar shots two dollar mimosas four dollar tacos

Oh my gosh. We long for the days when Christians was still Christians! Wonderful burgers formed by hand and thrown on the grill. You got it piping hot. Your mouth was watering just smelling the meat cook. As we walked into the restaurant, my husband and I commented on the fact the we couldn't even smell any meat cooking. And now we know why there is no smell. Our burger was obviously just warmed up and barely that. Dry as can be. When we walked out we made a point of looking into the kitchen and the grill obviously wasn't heated up. It was being used for storage of plastic containers. Gosh. What a shame. Another great restaurant gone downhill.

I live in the area so very familiar with this place. I return often because the food is good quality and consistent, the staff is great, happy hour and reverse happy hour prices are good and finally the staff and management (Belle) provide great service and are pleasant to be around.

I live right above this place and it's a great neighborhood spot! Belle, Chris and John always make sure im taken care of!

Great food and even better service!! Lovely staff, especially one of the managers, Belle, who always brightens up everyone's day! 10/10 recommend!!!

This was my first time at this location, and I loved everything about it; the bartender named Belle, showed me a great time with her fast service and warm smile. She made sure to make everyone feel welcome and told some jokes to improve my experience. Come to this location if you want cold drinks, good food, and a fun experience! Side note if you want a good drink, order the Belle special; it's a 10/10

Went in on a Sunday because we heard the football crowd was LIT! The tables seemed a little chaotic but overall the food was amazing and service was good, but the staff seemed a little stressed out. I saw the manager talking down to his staff. After talking to the table next to us about it I heard that's pretty standard there. Sad. Props to the staff for handling a really busy crowd!

I love the $1 Mimosas on Sunday's however, only if the bartender actually pours me a real mimosa instead of having more juice than anything else. Eh. Unless you're sitting by the bar the waitresses are pretty horrid lol but the energy here and the bartenders makes this place.

We have been coming here for years and enjoyed it but tonight was a horrible experience. The food was just okay but not not the quality of the past. The service was despicable. Order taking slow, delivery of food slow, reordered beers. We tried to give some constructive criticism and got a very defensive response. The good news is she is 23 with 10 years experience an knows it all. Chick Fil A would never have her and she is proud of that. Last time here.

I stopped by Christian's Tailgate for a quick lunch, but I think it's probably more of a college bar place. Our server was nice, but the food wasn't great. I ordered a burger with fries: the bun came out cold, and the hamburger patty wasn't very warm. The fries were actually very good, though. The $1 mimosas were pretty weak, though they are just $1 mimosas. For a good burger in Houston, I would probably suggest Lankford, FM Kitchen or BB Lemon. But our server was very nice and did a great job--I think this place is just more of a late-night bar spot!

Absolutely horrible service... I work in the industry so I understand most circumstances.. but I was so incredibly nice and understanding & the bartenders here were extremely rude for no reason. I will never come here again.. ridiculous.

My wife and I have been coming here since our first date 4 years ago. We have always loved the food, the staff and the experience. Unfortunately, after last night, we will probably frequent another bar in the area. We approached the bar and there was a short wait- no big deal for a Thursday night. Finally one of the bar tenders started walking towards us, we thought to take our drink order. Instead she walked right past us and turns the corner. A second bartender walked by us, LOOKS AT US, and goes to talk to the first bartender who just ignored us. We stood for another minute giving them a chance because we both worked as servers back in the day. Finally our drink order is taken, we get drinks and decide to just cash out and grab a table when one opens up. My wife decides she wants an order of fried pickles, so we give the bar tender a wave to notify her we'd like to order some food. Ignored again- but not a huge deal, again. Then we see the two bartenders walk away together. At this point we are confused and wondering what we could have done as we tipped very graciously on our two drinks, despite the terrible service. They had their backs to us, we assumed they were talking to somebody on the other side, until we saw them throwing back shots. We decided to just leave at this point. Disappointed is an understatement as we live within walking distance and this has always been a favorite spot for us. Hopefully Christian's Tailgate can get it together being that we hold this place so dear to us. We will probably give it another chance in a few months since we do love their burgers and enjoy that they are dog friendly.

Laid back spot !!! Victoria is KOOLEST bartender ! Ask for her !!!! Definitely made it a very enjoyable place to chill . Definitely recommend this place ... Htown hot spot ...

Here at Christian's Tailgate eating some of Javi's Crawfish. His crawfish is amazing!! Best crawfish I have in awhile!!

I used to frequent the old Christian's off Old Katy but hadn't tried the one in midtown. My husband and I stopped here for a quick burger lunch yesterday and I was impressed. We both got the mushroom burger with half fries/half onion rings. They do the onion rings right. What I was most impressed with was the way they toasted the hamburger bun - perfection. We'll definitely return.

No true complaints on our first visit to this location! A couple friends and I went for brunch on Sunday. Umm $1 mimosas?? BLESS. Our waitress was incredibly attentive and very nice. Love that the brunch menu item names are all Houston themed--I got the Inside the Loop breakfast tacos and enjoyed them! I like that they come with a side of breakfast potatoes. If we had to nitpick anything I would say that the brunch serving sizes aren't quite as big as we'd like, but that's stretching it. Will definitely be back soon to watch a game and try out some of their weekly specials!

Located in Midtown, this Christian's Tailgate location is one of the many spread throughout Houston. Environment-wise, it's your typical sports bars. Lots of TVs, beers on tap, and pub grub. As this is midtown we're talking about, parking is at a premium but you can find parking on the street if you try hard enough. They're especially known for their bacon burger which is what I had for lunch. The burger patty is infused with bacon and then topped with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mayo, mustard, and bacon strips. Served with fries. Yup! Bacon on bacon! If you're the type of dude or lady who's into things like bacon on donuts, this is the burger for you. Nice portion size and a good burger but too salty for my taste. Tastes like they just pile on the salt in the patty.

This location is trash. I've been to the location on White Oak and it's fine. Not sure what's going on here. It was empty because the AC was broken which was not a problem. The problem was that our waitress took our drink order and then disappeared because she was "off" without even telling us she was leaving. So we sat there waiting for someone to take our order until someone told us to order at the bar. How hard is it to tell your table you're leaving your shift? I've had plenty tell us that In the past at different places. The place was empty because of the AC so I assumed she didn't care about working or getting tips that day.

This place could be better but it's still ok as it is. We needed a good place to watch rockets warriors game 5 and we ended up here. Apparently they have no specials on Thursday's and happy hour had just ended, $8 for 25 oz warm beer is a little steep but whatever. Wife didn't care for her margarita, she said it was weak af, and she's usually not a drinker so... The appetizer platter was pretty good, we were going to order more food but decided not to. Our waitress Katrina was great, great attitude and attention. More people should have her positive attitude. There were plenty of tvs and the sound was great. Good place to watch a game Cons: parking sucks! We had to valet.

Racist staff and establishment. Terrible customer service. Food is nasty I found a clump of blonde hair in my burger and the manager spit on it when I showed it to her

Delicious food, great drink specials, fast & friendly service, amazing DJ, plenty of space, lots of TVs, clean and so much fun! The burgers and fried pickles are just sooooooo good. The manager, Terry, helped me put together a little karaoke birthday party for my husband and it was so much fun!!! I will be back for karaoke- it was so well done and a blast! Love this location!
