I had eaten at the Clark's Oyster in Austin, but this was my first time in Houston. The meal was excellent! I had the Texas Redfish on the Halfshell. It was perfectly done and very flavorful. The Paprika Vinaigrette on the side was pleasantly spicy and an excellent compliment. The service was terrific; attentive and well informed, but not obtrusive.

Everything was excellent! Paola, our server was extremely knowledgeable and friendly! We took all her recommendations and loved them. The LA bbq seafood was so flavorful. We met one of the owners, Danny and he gave us more background on the inspiration and culture behind the restaurant. I love their focus on giving back to the community and using local foods. Will definitely be back.
