Tamika Caston-Miller: Happy hour is EXCELLENT! The drinks are normally $12ish and are half off during happy hour. The bar has anything you could want and the happy hour eats are delicious! Great crab cake and calamari!
Victoria Craig: Of course the crab here is great, but we also really enjoyed the lobster bisque, the filet mignon, and the interesting take on baked Alaska. Service was spot on! The decor was dated and uninteresting.
Valentina Cardillo: My favorite restaurant in Houston! Everything is absolutely amazing, the service, drinks, appetizers, king crab legs and omg the carrot cake! TO. DIE. FOR.
Sara Garrett: Grilled shrimp poboy is great and adding avocado makes it even better.
Aptraveler: The Mesquite Grilled Flounder PoBoy is OUT of this world. The fish is truly flavorful & well seasoned, just delish, really, give it a try!
Tasting Table: In the off season, order a tall, cool parfait glass of campechana, a seafood cocktail brimming with crab and shrimp doused in tomato and hot sauce. Read more.
Liz R.: Enrico is the greatest server! Lemon sole, crab fried rice, tuna tartare, and Louisiana fried oysters- can't go wrong!!
Ms Helene: Freshly shucked oysters 6 for $18, tuna tartare with sesame oil, avocado, citrus and chili $14 and crab cake (can be GF) $16
Serra C: You can find bluepoint oysters and they always cook steak perfectly
