Me and my had a great relaxing experience. We were attended by Gaby and she was a absolute sweetheart. It was our first time going so we didn't really know anything about the restaurant. Gaby told us about the reward system and we were completely sold because of how nice and sweet she was. THE FOOD WAS AMAZING AND WORTH THE PRICE. Oh and I hope Gaby has a great college experience.

Food was lack luster and when the manager came over, he did nothing to.remedy the situation and acted as if we.were.a.bother. My money is hard earned. And I desire good customer service.

We celebrated our anniversary here. We came during lunch time and were seated in the bar area. Lunch crowd was nice because it wasn’t overly crowded.
Just a heads up to whoever is bringing a baby, there was not a changing table in the women’s restroom.
Food was delicious, we started with the Bourbon Osyters, crab cakes and burnt ends.
The bourbon osyters were really good.
My husband loved the burnt ends with the Cole slaw.
Main course
Waygu ribeye for my husband
Crab stuffed flounder for me
Sides: Mac and cheese and king crab fried rice
All was delicious, the ribeye was cooked to perfection! The flounder was nice and light.
Mac n cheese and king crab fried rice were good.
I would try different sides next time, the Brussels sprouts sounded great.
Drinks: old fashioned, spicy margarita and espresso martini
Old fashioned, a little on the sweeter side but nonetheless good.
The spicy margarita was excellent, great flavor.
The espresso martini was good too a little on the sweeter side for me personally.
We had the apple crumble for dessert which was very good.
Overall good atmosphere, elegant.

I went here yesterday for my birthday dinner & literally everyone at the tables food was so disgusting. I was so disappointed in that. I got the seafood pasta & Rockefeller oysters . The pasta was sauce less & season less . I literally couldn’t eat it. The oysters were tasteless as well. It was ridiculous to say the least. & for the price I expected the food to taste exquisite. But it didn’t meet my expectations & it kinda put me in a horrible mood. I don’t recommend this place AT ALL.

I was excited to take my mother, sister, and aunt visiting Houston, and I love that everything was great! As big time seafood lovers, they were in heaven! The menu had too many great options, we did sharables and they orfered dishes to go! Then they mentioned how great it was for manager to check in and chat with us- how that's not really done anymore.
I'm glad to have a reliable go-to restaurant in Willie G's for my guest!
