Best Cocktail Bars in Heights / Washington

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!

My wife and I had dinner with my son and his girlfriend tonight. Everything was delicious from the two appetizers to all four of our entrées finishing with two desserts. The server was very polite, sweet, nice and she was training a new server and she was also very polite. They were both knowledgeable and helpful. Our starters were the octopus and the taquitos and they were excellent for entrées we had tacos Al Pastore, the tenderloin, a salad and the skirt steak every single one of us uttered the words “This may be the best” of what we were eating we had ever eaten. An excellent dining experience truly. The setting has always been lovely.

My favorite bar in Houston! Best ambiance with high quality drinks

Good food, great ambiance, excellent drinks, awesome service. Our server Freddy was attentive and personable. Came for brunch with a friend and we loved everything about this place. I will definitely come back.

Absolutely love the experience here at Bautista! The service is incredible. The bartenders are knowledgeable in the drinks are delicious! We dined in other areas of the bar/hotel but Bandista does not offer food however experience was great!
