  Their food was delicious. I took some vendors for dinner, before an Astro game. The food is always spectacular. They don't have menus, so listen closely we hen they rattle of the food choices.

  Just remeber, you do not know what you want until you get there. I had the best lentil soup I have ever tasted. Did not know they had it until I got there. It is like going to Grandma's for dinner. You may not know what she is cooking but you know it will be most excellent! No menus, just excellent food. Irma's original rocks!!!

  I have been a vendor at the Quilt Show in Houston for ten years now and every year we come to Irma’s Original with a group of 10-20 people. Irma and her family are so excited to see us even though we only come that one night each year. One year our shuttle didn’t show us to bring us back to our hotel because we “closed the place down” after hours. So Irma’s sons offered to drive us all back in their personal vehicles. It’s true, they don’t have a menu, don’t give you the prices ahead of time and it is not “cheap,” we are never disappointed with the food, drinks, service and getting the opportunity for Irma to come out and greet us and take pictures with us all. She even offers some “free” dishes to try out. Our group every year grows and grows and we all look forward to this wonderful night at Irma’s every year. If I lived in Houston I would go often. I have recommended Irma’s Original to many people, even our customers who live in town. Since coming, Irma’s sons have opened two other restaurants in town. They have also expanded the space in the restaurant but we love being seated in the back “original” restaurant (and bathroom) with all of the eclectic decor that makes you feel like you are home. Thank you, Irma, for treating us like family every year. We all will be back! Matter of fact I need to make a reservation for 16 in your “back” room please, for Thursday, November 2. God bless you!
