- OTOpenTable DinerHouston •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoMy wife and I attended Valentine's Day dinner. Everything was wonderful. To begin, we had such an amazing Waitress, Reina! Thank you for your hospitality! So, if you're a bourbon or whiskey drinker, this is definitely the place for you! With over 200 selections, you're sure to discover a new favorite bourbon or whiskey. Make it a memorable evening, with the Smoking Gun Old Fashoined and the Flaming Oldie. I had both, and they're amazing! My wife loved the Pecan Crusted Snapper, and I had an amazing 16oz Black Angus Ribeye (Medium). Both, superb! It was a memorable evening. We definitely plan to return. Especially to attend their happy hour specials.More infoThe Federal Grill - DowntownPrice: Moderate• American• Downtown•4.5

My wife had lobster bisque, a filet mignon and mash potatoes, I had a wedge salad, filet mignon and mash potatoes. The lobster bisque was excellent, nice chunks of lobster. The wedge was terrific, the steaks perfectly cooked and had a nice flame kissed crust on them. Service was good.

- OTOpenTable DinerHouston •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoPappas Bros. Steakhouse is nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the stage for what would become one of the most memorable nights of our lives. The service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making our evening special. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. The steaks were perfectly cooked and rich with flavor. Every dish, from the appetizers to the decadent desserts, showcased top-tier ingredients and masterful preparation. What truly sets Pappas Bros. apart, though, is the experience they create. This was the place where I proposed, and the staff went above and beyond to make the moment unforgettable. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellence made an already special night even more magical. If you’re looking for the perfect place to celebrate a milestone, impress someone special, or simply enjoy an outstanding meal, Pappas Bros. is the place to be. I can’t recommend it highly enough!More infoPappas Bros. Steakhouse - DowntownPrice: Moderate• Steakhouse• Downtown•4.6
- SSonjaLos Angeles •1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoI feel lucky to have ended up at Hearsay in my first night in town. I dined alone, but didn’t feel like a sore thumb. The host and waiter were friendly and welcoming. The coffee is excellent. I had the salmon for dinner and it was tasty; from the fish itself to the grilled vegetables. I don’t know that you can go wrong here.More infoHearsay on the GreenPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.6
