    Perry’s Steakhouse & Grill - Memorial City is my go to steakhouse when I visit Houston. The hostess you meet when you walk in are nice, polite and professional. The bartenders know their business and make excellent drinks. The waiters and servers do an excellent job and know the little things when you ask. As for the food, the chef and his crew know their business! I believe Perry’s makes the BEST 6 oz. filet I’ve ever eaten! Well done Perry’s, well done!

    As usual, our lunch at Jonathan's was superb! The gumbo was very delightful with just the right combination of chicken and sausage seasoned to perfection! The fried chicken breast and shrimp was truly delicious. The tirimisu was Devine! Our service was quick with special attention to every detail. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!

    This review is for January 6th, 2025. As stated in the rating, Pappa's Steakhouse is a 5-Star restaurant...I believe it's because they earn it! Attention to every detail is apparent from the generous (and scrumptious) appetizer (Crab bisque this evening), to the chocolate-coated spoon & fresh-baked almond cookie that came with our Cappuccino. And if you've ever had the urge for a Veal Chop, this is the place to go! Finally, a five-star review wouldn't be complete without a shout-out to the pastry/dessert chef at Pappa's. Their desserts are original & creative, and even the Key Lime pie is stamped with a unique Pappa's presentation, and it is possibly the best in Houston! Celebrate a birthday, and maybe get treated to some of the best chocolate-covered strawberries you've ever had as well! Thanks to all the servers and staff for making this birthday celebration a memorable one!
