We're serving up tasty farm-to-kitchen dishes & cocktails out of our 'from scratch only' kitchen and bar. Microwave? Never heard of it. We use slow-cooking methods on our live wood grill, smoker and spit because everything tastes better that way. And all this goodness is served to you as you kick your feet up in one of our rocking chairs, dine at a fancy table or relax out on the porch.

Our wait person (Gaby) was great! We never wanted or waited for anything. Food was good and there was enough for four people even though there was only two of us. Bar drinks were well prepared. Overall great experience.

We were extremely happy with our experience and decision to celebrate our anniversary at Rouxpour (Friendswood). Setting a reservation was seamless, and I had an unorthodox special request that they executed effortlessly. Shoutout to the entire staff, but especially to our server, Sarah. Her 5-star service, professionalism, and attention to detail were impeccable. She played a big role in making our night unforgettable, and we greatly appreciate her. I haven’t even started talking about the food! From the moment I made the reservation, I was dreaming about the shrimp and sausage deviled eggs—and they exceeded my expectations, just like the shrimp and crawfish fondue. While I don’t usually eat crab cakes, my lady devoured hers before I even had the chance to try them. The zydeco fried chicken was amazing, and the drinks, atmosphere, and everything else were simply perfect. I highly recommend this location!
