Review Big John's Ice House - Houston

Arguably the best cobb salad in town, with deliciously seasoned chicken and perfectly ripened avocados. Heather and Mindy are attentive and pour good drinks. And there's a little eye candy for you in the restrooms. ;-) Lots of big screens so you can watch the game. Patron and staff alike are friendly and welcoming. You'll become a regular before you know it.

Pretty decent hole in the wall, a dive bar for sure but they offer great drink selection and decent food. Drink selection is the best as these folks know how to make drinks. Beer selection is really good although no draft offered. Prices are pretty good too. Clean location, casual/relaxed atmosphere.

60 yrs old...been in a few neighborhood bars over 39 yrs in Texas. John's has a great atmosphere as a sports bar w/jukebox music & live music. Been there 4 times in last 2 months on a weekend night each time. Only 1/4 times(not a good experience), male customer sitting at bar was very loud & obnoxious to his female companion. The staff & service everytime have been fantastic and customer friendly. Highly recommend this to anyone visiting "H" town & staying on Westside.

Years ago, a bunch of us went here after my dad's funeral and the staff was so kind. Best burgers in Houston, after Charlie's which closed a long time ago.

Went on their 30th anniversary, did not have any food, from the spaghetti I saw they were serving it appeared to be ok. The waitress as good, atmosphere was so so as no a/c just fans and it was a bit uncomfortable

Very friendly atmosphere. Chips with salsa and queso are yummy. Definitely recommend and the live band is great. Women's bathroom is the best part of this place 😏

This company event turned out well. Thank you, Heather... you rock!

So this place is chill. Older crowd, maybe a lil too local for some. Not a lot of people but great crawfish and cheap beer. Zero complaints. I'd definitely go back.
Mary Crawford
The band was awesome ! I didn't want to leave. I fell in love with the trombone and sax players. They were really great. Hope to be back soon. The staff is so personable and efficient too. Love you all!

OMG! The crawfish was so delicious! Everything served at this restaurant is fresh and served hot! Top of the line mix drinks! Friendly and attentive wait staff!

Staff was very friendly as were customers. Drink prices are higher here than at other Energy Corridor bars. Daily food special prices are lower here than at other Energy Corridor bars. I have never seen free food offered here, but the quality of the purchased food is excellent; considering price and generous portion size, it is a GREAT value! They have a very large outdoor area. They do not offer anyvdraft beer, but their packaged beer and wine list is extensive.

Cool dive bar atmosphere. I was there on a Saturday night and it was surprisingly dead. The bartender Kelly was really nice. Great place to have a cold beer and chill out without the meat market vibe some bars feel like
Lisa Davis
This is a great place to chill after work or on the weekend. We've been for lunch and enjoyed it, as well. They've got options for indoor and outdoor seating. The burgers are great! It's an older crowd, but everyone is friendly and chill.

If you want a good burger and fries, this is the place. The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly.. However, during my last visit the band who would be playing that evening had the volume way up on their equipment as they tested it and repeated "check, check 1-2-3" at nauseam, a clear assault on my hearing, so I hurried up with my meal and left.

Great food. Best crawfish in town although it is a little pricey at $7 a pound. Super great, large outdoor patio with large bar and TVs. Not as popular as it used to be but still a great place to hang out on a sunny day!!
Creole Mamie
Love this place. Come here for the burgers. They are juicy and well seasoned. Nice place to chill and watch sports.
