Best Bars And Lounges in Northwest

Bar Doko is a fun experience for people who want a more unique experience from the typical offerings here in Houston. A lot of their cocktails lean on more umami flavors, and highlights the Japanese influence this bar incorporates. That being said, some people may not enjoy that approach, but for those that do, will have a fun and unique experience. They source very specific ingredients for their drinks and quality shows in the taste. I highly recommend the "ei" eternity cocktail, which incorporates a wagyu fat wash with the whiskey and is apparent in the overall flavor of the drink, alongside the mushroom garnish complimenting the umami flavors. The imo negroni is a fun spin on the familiar compari bitterness with a sweet potato spin. Will definitely come back and try other items soon!

Amazing time. The music, food and ambiance were all great!

Our server was pleasant, I but think the overall staff was overwhelmed with the number of customers on Christmas evening making for unusually long gaps between being seated, placing a cocktail order, getting the drinks and finally getting food 45 minutes after getting a table. Street tacos were excellent, and while the Cadillac Margarita was good, it was not exceptional. But many thanks for being open on the holiday!!!!

Slow bartender service - at times no one was even behind the bar. We love coming to the hotel but service was off this time
