Everything was excellent! We had 4 types of oysters from their "Gulf Gems". Really great choices, all with different, distinct tastes.The pickle juice mignonette was a new thing for me. Very nice.We had a variety entrees, served family style. Grilled Gulf Shrimp, Roasted Oysters, Fried Chicken, and Blackened Snapper collars. The Blackened Snapper Collars were fantastic! My favorite.Service was excellent. Our waitperson was attentive without hovering. Food came out as it was completed in the kitchen.I'll be back.

We were so happy to find this place. The frozen margarita was exceptional . I especially loved our server , Chris. He was attentive and friendly and real. All the staff were great. The oysters were so good with all the accoutrements especially the fresh horseradish . The tacos made my inner child so happy. And the deviled eggs lived up to its reputation. I texted friends as I was eating to tell them about this place. Definitely coming back.

Complimentary valet parking is always a plus in Houston. We had brunch reservations & were seated immediately upon arriving. This restaurant is family friendly & the tables are a little close together. The oysters were seasoned very well. The oysters come with bread, which would have been better if the bread was toasted. Our waitress was personable, welcoming, & offered recommendations since it was our first time.Parking: They offer complimentary valet parking

The eclectic menu and solid seafood offerings sold me.Apps:1 dz (6ea) AL (s) oysters on the half shell. (Happy Hour) - all exceptional. My wife's very first time having raw oysters she actually loved. 12/10 ??Deviled Eggs - excellent. Nice horseradish. Very crispy, but light fried topper.Boiled Shrimp (hot) - Exceptional cook, great flavor. Very nice remoulade.Mains:Her: Bay ScallopsMe: Blackened Snapper CollarsCocktails and Mezcal were the perfect accompaniment.Christopher was very knowledgeable, attentive, personable and an excellent server.
