New American Restaurants near Bellaire, TX

“I've come here several times and everytime they mess up my order.I don't know if it's because I ask for a military discount ( which they have) or something else but the service I received is less than the other patrons that come here.“

“Beautiful day for a birthday party at the new park WOW“

“I recommend the full menu. My wife and I had our 37 year anniversary dinner tonight,and our server Paisley did an awesome job… kudos to you! Thanks Ingrid for checking with us about our dining experience! We will be back soon.“

“1/12/2025-This is a awesome vibe here. The ambiance is a nice bistro with some crazy art to keep you entertained but the music and lighting sets the mood. I would come back here again and again. I visited here without a reservation and was greeted when I first came in. The staff was nice friendly and attentive. Emma was awesome and recommended some dishes. The burger, half chicken, rice, and sesame butter cookie were awesome and the drinks. I had the voodoo drink. I highly recommended and you won't be disappointed.“

“A delicious date night. Terrific food and excellent service thanks to Dominic.“

“I would like to express my gratitude for the recent family gathering orchestrated by James. The reservations were well-managed, and we were fortunate to be attended by an outstanding waitress named Loren. She displayed exceptional professionalism in effectively serving fifteen family members, ensuring that all orders were accurately delivered while maintaining a smooth flow of service. The quality of the food was remarkable, and many family members have continued to praise it, along with the inviting atmosphere and engaging entertainment. Overall, we had a wonderful time reconnecting as a family. Thank you, James and Loren, for your exemplary service and dedication.“

“The food and service were exceptional. For appetizers we had the Everyway Oysters and the Tarte Flambee. The entrees were the Hanger Steak, Filet Mignon, and the Dry Aged Burger. All were perfect! Best burger ever according to my friend! Wrapped it up with the Tarte! Erick the Maitre d’ was superb! He made it his mission to make sure we were taken care of! Overall the experience was excellent and we will definitely be back and recommend Bludorn!!“

“The BEST ceviche I’ve ever had!“

“My husband and I are in Houston for his cancer treatment at MD Anderson. Needless to say, not a trip for fun, but it’s his birthday today, and we wanted to get out of the hotel at the hospital and celebrate just a little. Because he has stage 4 stomach cancer, his dietary needs are limiting, so eating out can be difficult. I can’t say enough good things about this restaurant. This being our first trip to Houston, we know little about the area, and our cab driver helped us decide on Navy Blue. Well, can I just tell you, they were soooooo accommodating of our needs!!! The chef went out of his way to prepare some special items for us, so my husband could eat. Though his portion size is limited, he thoroughly enjoyed his food, as did I. I ordered a small appetizer of baked in butter Prince Edward Island oysters, simply prepared, and oh so delicious. My husband loves oysters, but they haven’t loved him since he’s been sick. He even had one, and enjoyed it. My husband also loved the cheddar biscuits, and seaweed butter, I couldn’t believe he was able to eat the whole biscuit. They have a simply prepared section in their menu, and you can order your seafood pan seared in olive oil with simple seasonings. This was great for his situation, and he had beautiful pink juicy gulf shrimp. I had the Dover sole, and it was perfectly prepared and boned tableside. Gorgeous presentation, and the fish was absolutely delicious. I ordered the sautéed spinach, and he the creamed potatoes. We shared those, and both were delicious. All the staff were well trained in service and they were super attentive. Our server was magnificent. Thank you Navy Blue for showing us a lovely night out, in an otherwise difficult time. We highly recommend your restaurant to anyone in the Houston area looking for fabulous food, fabulous service, and exquisite attention to detail. This place is wonderful!!!“

“Absolutely amazing food! Robert our server was awesome as well!“

“Our first experience with Bellagreen was scrumptious! We were visiting Houston and googled for gluten free vegetarian meals. Very thankful our search led us here. The atmosphere was relaxed and the aesthetics overall were spot on. I had the seasonal harvest salad and it was nothing but perfection! Everything was so fresh and made a beautifully colorful plate. My daughter tried a veggie burger for the very first time and she loved it! Keep up the good work Bellagreen. see you on our next trip!“

“An excellent restaurant that provides a great experience, good food, and exceptional customer service.“

“I highly recommend Fielding's River Oaks for group dining and special occasions. The stylish interior immediately stood out to me, with its modern lighting, clean decor, and expansive windows that bring in plenty of natural light. Our group had a large table in a private area, and the space felt comfortable and upscale, perfect for a celebratory get together or even a business dinner. 🍽️ The service was attentive, and the table was set beautifully with everything we needed plates, glasses, cutlery, and napkins all arranged, ready for a relaxed meal with friends or colleagues. The food was excellent pizzas came out hot and perfectly baked, and the burgers looked delicious with generous portions. Drinks flowed throughout the dinner, served in a variety of elegant glasses. One feature I really appreciated was the versatility Fielding’s offers not just indoor dining, but also takeaway and delivery if you prefer to eat elsewhere. Overall, it was a memorable experience thanks to the great atmosphere, quality food, and top 🔝 notch service. I would absolutely go back, whether for a casual lunch or another big event.“

“Love this place really laid back and friendly staff“

“My husband and I had date night tonight and decided to go to one of our fav spots, again. We've been going to Brandani's for almost 10 years. As always...our experience was superb, so I am taking a moment to give a review:). We're ALWAYS happy. The staff is top notch, the menu is consistently delish, we love the atmosphere, and it's a sweet bonus to be greeted by the Brandani's themselves. Whenever we find ourselves free to have a date night we can always rely on Brandani's for a lovely evening. Well, I somehow bumped my glass of red wine and it splattered all over my face and shirt tonight...but because the Brandani staff is so wonderful and we feel at home, it was easy to laugh off and continue to enjoy our evening together. Ha. Two thumbs up. As always! 🥰“

“As usual, everything about this local, husband and wife run restaurant was outstanding. The menu is not huge but has every type of entree one could want -- fish, chicken, steak, pork belly, rack of lamb and short ribs. The couple that run and operate this restaurant are friendly, professional, and hard working. They have earned our repeat business and will continue to do so. If you have not been here, bring your own bottle of wine (or two) and you will not regret it.“

“The food and service was excellent! Everyone was so welcoming. Laurie was a hospitable and welcoming server. We came here for HRW and were pleased with the portions and flavor of everything. We would highly recommend visiting this location!“

“Had a great time, i went to have brunch this morning food was delicious. everyone was very attentive and nice, especially Michele made us feel very welcome, thank you everyone.“

“This restaurant exceeded my expectations! I chose it based on the vibe in the photos and the wine and brunch menu and it was superb! From the atmosphere and our amazing server Maxwell, It was the perfect spot to spend 4 hrs catching up with my bestie before she flew out. Thanks Maxwell you were truly a delight and the cherry on top of our already great day!!“

“We recently hosted a surprise birthday party for about 30 guests in the restaurant’s private event room, and everything was absolutely perfect. The room itself is beautifully designed—honestly, it hardly needed any extra decor because the ambiance was already spot-on. From the moment we connected with the booking coordinator to the service was exceptional. Every staff member we interacted with was courteous, attentive, and truly professional. They made the entire planning process seamless and the event itself run smoothly. The food? Incredible. We created a custom menu with a variety of options, and every single dish was packed with flavor. The presentation was stunning—like something you’d see in a magazine—and the portion sizes were just right. If you’re looking for an intimate, stylish space with top-notch service and food that will wow your guests, this is the place. Highly recommended!“

“The food was delicious! The service was excellent, and the atmosphere/ experience was awesome! I loved every minute of it, and also enjoyed the Photo Booth experience.“

“It's safe to say that this restaurant is a new favorite for me! The service, the food & drinks, and the atmosphere were stellar! I was pleasantly greeted by Dante who was so kind, personable, and very accommodating. I sat at the bar for dinner and had the privilege of being served by the very talented bartender, Phong. He was so funny and couldn't make a drink wrong if he tried! He's a true craftsman when it comes to making drinks, and he does it so effortlessly! The food was AMAZING as well! Dante recommended the kimchi carbonara and he did not steer me wrong! I damn near wanted to lick the plate! LOL!! My only regret is that I hadn't tried this restaurant sooner. I'll most certainly be coming back!“

“It was a great meal. Really enjoyed everything. We had the grilled artichoke, crab cakes, burger, eggplant parmigiana, chicken and seafood pasta, carrot cake and fig crème brûlée. Nothing was bad. Everyone enjoyed their meal thoroughly. Highly recommend. Service was great and the drinks were spot on...“

“Mezza is our go-to restaurant for years and consistently a hit with friends and family. The food is flavorable and the menu has many different choices for the picky eaters and those who may have various food restrictions i.e. vegetarian. If you haven't been to Mezza, this is a must try restaurant.“

“The best food, prepared to perfection and beautifully presented!! Warm & cozy atmosphere and a great wait staff. Amazing drinks & desserts!! Enjoy!“

“Jonathan's The Rub at Memorial Drive offers a decent three-course meal experience. The Gumbo soup was a flavorful standout, rich and savory. While the braised Denver beef was good, it didn't quite reach exceptional. The bread pudding, though tasty, was a bit too dense for my preference. The service was impeccable, and the warm, inviting atmosphere made for a pleasant evening. We will certainly return to explore more of their menu.“

“Mia’s biscuits and. pies"“

“Whiskey Cake never fails. Once again the recommendations from our waiter Christian were absolutely wonderful. We feel like family when we are visiting from North Carolina. He always makes us feel so welcomed. Shout out to Stephanie and Haley for taking the time to say hello. Missed seeing Margaret but I'm sure we will see her before we have to head home. Absolutely recommend this awesome place and staff to everyone.“

“Yesterday was our first meal at Bellagreen, and it was excellent. First, the menu is vegan friendly, so we ordered their veggie burgers with sweet potato fries. Very fresh and flavorful! We love the counter service and pretty quick turnaround considering it was just at the tail-end of the lunch rush on a Thursday in a bustling part of Houston (CityCentre). Very well planned and an experienced crew delivered a really good experience for us. We'll be back!“

“Cocktails were the best, also the food was incredible. Excellent service“

“The food is exceptional, particularly the chef's tasting menu. Each plate that arrives feels like a pleasant surprise. The desserts are not only innovative but also exquisitely flavorful. Additionally, the cocktail selection is unique, and they offer an impressive range of gluten-free options, ensuring no risk of cross-contamination. Some dishes, however, can be quite spicy, so it's worth keeping that in mind.

The ambiance of both the restaurant and bar is elegant, with a beautifully designed interior that complements the overall dining experience. It's an ideal venue for a business dinner or an intimate gathering with friends. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone seeking a top-tier dining experience.“

“I went for brunch and really liked the vibe. Great food and extremely friendly staff. Will be going back soon!“

“Awful food, awful service. You're paying over $20 for stale instant mashed potatoes. Digusting.“

“Great healthy food. Me and my wife both loved what we ordered.“

“We always have a good meal and good times at Del Vista! The menu has so many of our favorites and always consistently prepared.“

“Me and my spouse came here for our anniversary. The drinks were absolutely amazing. It just needed a little bit more lime to my liking. The cheesecake was out of this world. The burger could've been made any more perfect I devoured my chicken and waffles. Everything about that night was exceptionally amazing.“

“Great restaurant in a lovely neighborhood. The food was delicious and the happy hour charcuterie board was great followed by a 3 meat pizza. The chocolate cookie is amazing.“

“Modern, inventive and delectable food. What a great experience. Great service too.“

“Great meal. Great staff. Bread service is a must. Definitely will be back.“

“Loved my first experience here at this eatery! So so delicious“

“Perfect place for healthy, delicious, happy food. The food is so eclectic and fresh. The ambience is open but also feels like private seating. They even have their own store for buying healthy, modern or fusion food options. Pictures are the harvest salad with tofu, crunchy Chicken sandwich and Asian chicken salad. I will definitely be back here soon to try their other cool dishes!“

“This restaurant embodies refined taste and consistent excellence. Every item on the menu is thoughtfully crafted, flawlessly prepared, and never disappoints. The ambiance is clean, elevated, and inviting — a true testament to hospitality done right. Living just down the street, we find ourselves returning often, and each visit feels like an experience. Worth every penny for those who appreciate quality without compromise.“

“Great food and amazing atmosphere!“

“So we did Dine in the Dark here. No photos to post and will not tell you what was on the menu, but I was very good! It’s amazing how senses changed when one was taken away. Something you need to experience for yourself.“

“Awesome food and service. Never been disappointed.“

“It’s a great restaurant and the food is delicious. I have been a customer of the Rice Village location since the early 2000s.“

“First of all, as a Person with Cancer it’s very hard to find a place that offers clean healthy Food, I can’t eat out anymore, the Food over here was very delicious and healthy thank you very much Bellagreen 😄💕“

“Just had Dish Society for the first time and it was so good! Had the brisket eggs and made a happy plate 🤪coffee and mimosa was equally as good!!“

“First time Birthday Luncheon, food was excellent and the service was great. I’ll be back“

“It was one of our most enjoyable dining experiences in a while, and we eat out a lot. Starting out with Dane who filled our water and informed us that he would be assisting Isa our primary server. Bottom line the serving staff was well trained, and knowledgeable of what was on the menu. I've lived in the area for years and had patronized the previous Pappa'srestaurant there many times . This took our dining experience to a new level. We will be back. “
