    Spicy edamame

    Hubby surprised us with this new All You Can Eat location. Supposedly, it was an old Red Lobster restaurant. So they kept the aquatic/sailor decor. There are nice pops of blue seating that I thought was a nice touch. We were greeted by our waitress and given an explanation on how to order. You have to scan the QR CODE for your table and select the item & quantity for each order. Be careful not to over indulge, as I was told if there is too much left over, you will be charged extra. I think our best bites were the Tuna Nigiri & seafood boil. It was only $30 dollars per Adult and kids are $15. We would stop by again for the sushi alone. Enter freely, they've been approved.

    The sushi would have been better if it was cold. The temperatures of everything were really off. For the raw fish, the rice was warm. It made all of the rolls taste weird. The hibachi steak was also cold when it was brought out. The service was great! Everyone was really nice and things were speedy. There is a QR code so you can order as much as you want as fast as you want. Also easy to park there and has a lot of indoor dining.

    Another good find for Japanese AYCE. Prices are descent, the place is nice our server Heather is awesome. The food is good especially the beef skewer and fried noodles. The Sushi options are good as well. Had my bday held here and all my guest had a great time.

    Updated and changed menu to all you can eat! Small portions so you can try anything on the menu. Loved everything I ordered!

    We went during their soft opening for lunch. They greeted us with a complementary glass of sparking wine. We ordered the calamari, classic, and signature lobster roll with garlic truffle fries. Food was great and the staff were all very friendly. Only recommendation is to add a lunch menu. The prices were fair if it were dinner but paying dinner prices for lunch makes it harder to justify to come for a quick lunch.

    You have to start ordering by scanning the QR code. Lobster rolls are made of slightly toasted buns (similar to Texas Toast garlic breads) that are split partially and filled with a thin layer of chopped lobster salad and romaine. The classic has a creamy and cold filling, which i thought tasted better. The signature version has the warm filling but seems less flavorful. The onion soup is on the warm/ hot side. Eel and tamago nigiri were okay. The vegetable (sushi rice, sliced inari pockets, seaweed salad, sliced avocado) taco (sliced iceberg lettuce on the side) was a good version. The fried nori and rice paper shell was crispy and not oily. The seafood boil (sausage, large shell-on shrimp, mussel and clam, quarter corn, and half potato) was well-seasoned and hot. The cheese wontons (2-pcs with sauce) were hot and crispy. The jalapeño lagoon (2-pcs deep fried halved jalapeños filled with kani salad) was hot and flavorful. The lobster crab dip was hot and filled with plump meat. The fried fish in the fish and chips were pretty good.

    Wow! I was exclusively invited to the soft opening of blue claw. They are Canadian based company that decided to travel here to houston! And this is their first location in america. Aren't we so blessed! Let me just tell you about my evening! Immediately there was a step on repeat that was super cute you have to take photos. But what stole the show was the largest lobster Tower in America. And that thing was absolutely delicious. Every but I was rolling my eyes to the back of my head. It was open bar all night but since I don't drink they did offer three of the mocktails on their menu. And OMG they were chef's kiss! They had the grapefruit Ginger fizz, the lbb blueberry mojito, and the strawberry lemonade. Hello hello hello the ginger fizz had mint come a lime and spicy ginger beer. 10 out of 10. The l will be blueberry mojito was House made with blueberry syrup. 9 out of 10. And the strawberry lemonade was the perfect balance of tart and sweet. 10/10. Not here last night I tasted pretty much everything and I was extremely full by at the end of the night that I secretly asked for to go plate. Lol. Ain't no shame in my game. There was a chilled classic lobster roll with lemon, black pepper and a hint of mayo. 10/10 The Hardy lost her burger that was stacked with lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, cheddar and tartar sauce. 9/10 They had the Blue Claw roll which was pretty crispy tempura lobster tail, crab meat, cucumber, avocado, spicy mayo, flying fish roe, eel sauce. 10/10 Extended release for adults there was the volcano roll that was rich and creamy and filled with lobster, crab, cream cheese, spicy mayo, and avocado. 10 / 10 The Gold dragon roll hat salmon, shrimp tempura, crab meat, and barbecue and spicy mayo drizzle. 10/10 The shrimp sushi with sweet egg spicy mayo, and eel sauce. 10/10 There was the H-Town roll.. the Houston role.. it has salmon, tuna, pickled radish, and soy. 10/10 Salmon sushi that was torched perfectly and topped with flying fish row, spicy mayo, and eel sauce. 10/10 We had salmon risotto that was pretty good. Seven over 10 a full three plates of lobster tails that were tender and juicy and sticky and yummy. 10/10 I had the New York strip loin that was moist and tender and flavorful everything 9/10 The crispy fries word.. okay. I feel like they should have used maybe a different oil or a different technique but they were weirdly crispy but flavorless. 4/10 We have some yummy lobster sliders that were buttery and soft and delectable. 9/10 At the end of the meal they offered decadent looking chocolate mousse and everyone was so happy to close out the night on a sweet note. Because I don't like chocolate, I did not indulge, but I saw the smiles of the guests around me. I will most certainly come back, especially since they offered All of Us exclusive coupons! I'm so excited that they're here in the northwest of houston! The giveaways were pretty huge. There was a flea pay trip to Canada and a 6 lb lobster! I didn't send it in my ticket to win but... I wish I would have! The staff was super warm and welcoming the owners were very gracious and super passionate. And the energy of the place with all the influencers and food colors were coastal elevated and unforgettable. I had an incredible night. Truly. FYI: Ashli- server SHE WAS ABSOLUTELY ON POINT ALL NIGHT! Medina -busser THE SWEETEST PERSON ON EARTH AND SO HUMBLE

    One of the best Creme Brulee I've had so far
    Kelley V.

    I was driving to work yesterday morning and saw their Soft Opening sign so I told my family about it. We decided to try it for dinner. (This is the old Red Lobster and we did NOT have such a good experience the last time so it was a little "traumatic" to come back to this building. Lol). The service was spectacular from the host, to our waiter, the manger and just everyone who walked by. They checked in on us very often, it wasn't that busy but still, they made sure we were enjoying our dinner. They asked for our opinions on the dishes and it was an extremely pleasant visit. We got a little bit of each thing and did it family style and shared. Going to list everything from our favorite to least favorite. 1. Creme Brulee - one of the best I've had so far. The manager (God, I forgot her name but she was so sweet!) gave the table some complimentary dessert and it was DELICIOUS. The crack from the sugar was perfection. It was firm enough but still smooth and silky. Very rich in flavor but not too sweet. I would come back for this for sure. 2. Lobster & Crab Dip - these top 2 items would be the reason I come back! Only thing I didn't like about this was the bell peppers but I still enjoyed it very much. The table devoured this dish within minutes of it being set down. I am a corn girly so the corn in this dish was "chefs kiss" to me. 3. Blue Claw Roll - Lobster Tempura - enough said - deep fried - yes please! I honestly wasn't expecting coming here to eat sushi but it was good. Nothing bad to say about this dish. 4. Lobster Risotto - the risotto was creamy and cooked just the way I like it, a little more on the al dente side. It was not mushy or soupy. It was flavored well. The only thing I would change about this would be the "parmesan crisp". It was not crispy. It was soggy snd chewy. 5. 1lb of the Lobster, grilled with the East Coast sragood boil sauce on the side. My dad ate the entire lobster himself so I assume it was good. Lol. The sauce was okay. We are used to the Viet Cajun Garlic Butter sauce so this was just ehhh to us. 6. Lobster Chowder - it was creamy but nothing special to it. The biscuit that came with the chowder and the bisque was more on the dry side. It wasn't fluffy so it felt and tasted very dense. To compare, it was more like a Popeye's biscuit not a Church's biscuit. 7. Mussels - it was in a tomato bisque like sauce. It tasted like mussels. Again, nothing special to it. You do have to eat this hot though because once it gets cool, or room temperature, it doesn't taste the same. 8. Lobster Roll - the bun wasn't buttery and toasted enough. The lobster filling itself was abundant but it was too saucy. The sauce was a little on the sweet and tangy side, kind of like a thousand island salad dressing type. The fries were delicious though. Extra crispy as requested. We ate every single fry. 9. Lobster Bisque - I felt like this one was just Lobster in a tomato soup. It wasn't creamy or bisque like for me. 10. Calamari - this was more on the bland side. The batter was not seasoned. It was definitely not deep fried enough. It was still pale and soggy. It needs to be golden brown and more crispy. Overall, we enjoyed this dinner very much! We would definitely recommend this place to our friends and come back.

    The lobster bisque was amazing and the popcorn shrimp were just like mom's! The two different lobster rolls were great! Each had its own unique flavors and the bread was perfectly buttered and toasted! Lex was wonderful! She kept us entertained and informed. Our food was delivered promptly and entrees did not interfere with our appetizers! Kudos! Thanks Lex!

There are books abound, along the walls, in the bathroom, everywhere. I had a glass of Experience, a Californian Cabernet Sauvignon. It was a good pour, not too little or too much and the taste was deep, well balanced and smooth. Since the event took place around dinner time I also had a Fig and Speck flatbread. The fig, prosciutto and other toppings complimented each other well. The flatbread dough itself was ok but could've benefited from a little more flavor such as some garlic, butter and herbs. I also would've liked it a bit thinner so I could taste less of the bread and more of those delicious toppings. Don't get me wrong it was good and I ate all of it but these are small suggestions I'd recommend to bring it to perfection. I could see parking and seating being tricky. I was fortunate to snag a parking spot on the side of the building near the auto place and once inside I found a seat at a table with a lovely couple, another couple joined us soon after. Many of the guests who arrived later stood at first and then halfway through the event, made their way to the floor where they sat cross legged. All in all, The Library was a nice establishment and although a little out of my way, I'd return for another event or if I were in the area again.

The signature cocktails were definitely mixologist curated, well balanced in flavor and alcohol, the espresso martini made with rum as opposed to vodka was probably one of the best espresso martinis I've ever had and I think they should all be made that way now. I visited on Valentine's evening so we did make reservations but I do believe reservations are a standard regardless of the day. My only disappointment was that you have a two hour table time limit which is fine. The problem came in as it was very apparent that a lot of reservations including ours were booked over a private party so we were, albeit politely, rushed to close out before our allotted time limit to accommodate the party reservation. I'm glad we were able to enjoy a good amount of time here but I really feel bad for the people who arrived after us as I'm sure felt the same pressure to leave as well. With that said I would absolutely visit Aye Candy again.

Reviews stated that they offer $10 Carajillos starting at 10pm and both Yelp and Google Maps showed them open until midnight.

There was a gentleman working on the flooring, furniture being disassembled and lots of construction equipment outside. The seeming owner or manager reassured us to come in, however as soon as we took a seat we learned that they closed at 10pm. Ironically there was a young man assembling a large sign that states "open until 10pm" to prop outside. The bartender offered to make us a drink and since we had driven here just for this spot (I would call it a coffee shop and not really a bar), we agreed. The Carajillos were $15 and sadly, batched. Disappointing for a cocktail with only about two ingredients. We asked if they could add an orange peel garnish but unfortunately they were out. Definitely a one and done. Will not be back.
