    Papas Martajadas

    We went here for HRW. The grilled octopus was amazing, ceviche was refreshing and balanced, and the mango mousse was light. The value for HRW menu was ok, and our waiter did forget to bring my drink, but overall it was a pleasant experience. Other waitstaff were very attentive with water refills and silverware/taking away plates. Nice and warm interior with an upscale feel without being intimidating.

    Taquitos de Papa Houston Restaurant Week- Lunch
    Zoe I.

    (Day before) No one picked up the phone for 15 minutes ringing straight. Eventually got an answer. I came to Caracol as part of the Houston restaurant week lunch menu. Not the most worth it. $25 for an appetizer and entree is an ok deal for great quality food albeit tiny portion sizes. Ensalada de tomate- a very fresh mixed green salad with juicy tomatoes. Stand outs were the mixed seeds coated in sugar/caramel. Salad came with 75% of a tomato. Plated beautifully. Taquitos de Papa. A decadent potato taco with a great salsa. 2 pcs, each were about the size of my thumb. I liked the salsa more than the Taquito. Tacos de Pescado- well-balanced season and perfectly fried fish taco. Milder flavors but overall a good balance between veggies and meat. The meal came with two tacos on blue corn tortillas about the size of my palm. My cat could finish this and still be hungry. Rice was overdone. Torta De Res- a solid prime rib sandwich. Steak fries were thick, cut and properly crispy. I was surprised it was only half a sandwhich. Indoor is much nicer, outdoor patio did not have any fans, chairs were a bit dirty, but not an unenjoyable experience. Parking gets validated at the hostess desk!

    Overdone oysters

    Sunday Brunch at 10am for four. $48 per person. Live music starts at 11am or later. Free valet or garage parking. Food - not as good as we had remembered - we paid extra 6 grilled oysters and they were overdone so we were sad about that - the buffet was not fully out by 10am and by 1100 it was mostly empty and not restocked - my sister was missing their fresh guacamole - I wanted to try the menudo soup, but they ran out and had some green soup replacement instead - desserts were fun - hot chocolate is lukewarm Service - okay, could be improved not enough servers for the room Ambiance -casual It was just okay today. For the price point may be better to just order the meals separately.

    Coco loco

    I went here for another restaurant week try! Came here for a girls night and we have been wanting to try this place for some time. For starters I ordered the flemeado which was okay. The cheese was thick and some bell peppers and onions were baked into the cheese. It was very oily but the taste was good! Main course I ordered their mole. I have never tried fish mole before but the flavor was pretty great! Not traditional in any sense when it comes to Mexican mole but the flavors were awesome. I ended with their coco loco. There is something about cracking open a coconut like chocolate ball and devouring the inside that had me at Coco loco! LOVE IT. My friend ordere the churros and I have to say, both go together great. Service was awesome and overall we had a great restaurant week experience!

    Double dated here for a Houston restaurant week dinner. We shared everything and wow! We all truly loved our experience here at Caracol. The ambiance is great like the usual of chef Hugo's restaurants. The main focus here is seafood and all the seafood dishes were out of the park amazing. The apps were delicious. The favorite was definitely the calamari. The entrees were great too! The shrimp with bomba rice was great, the octopus was spectacular with great texture and flavor. The seafood with rice was amazing too! The seafood here is just so fresh tasting and delicious. All the desserts were so thought out and yummy too. 10/10

    My first prime rib sandwich. Luckily I took a photo & was able to show the manager when he eventually came by. Sear marks on prime rib?
    Kelly W.

    Extremely disappointing!!! Who serves prime rib medium or medium well? Yes, the manager eventually came to check on me when I told the waitress that my meal was "okay". The manager agreed that the meat was overcooked & assured me that I would quickly receive one cooked the right way. It was not MR either. He never came back to check on me. I expected more from a restaurant like Caracol. Not only that, my "torta" had almost no flavor. The menu stated that it came with chimichurri which sounded so yummy. My $12. cemita at Puebla was a much more satisfying flavor experience than my HRW lunch at Caracol today.

    Service was excellent and we had outside seating which was very pleasant. We had a large group meal but were all served adequately and the water glasses were managed well. I did try the 32$ margarita.... Not worth it. Like a mimosa but had smooth tequila. The highlight of the meal was the beef taquito appetizer. I didn't get a good look at the menu for what it was. Best thing I tried. The shrimp was well cooked and the rice had some flavor but was overall something I didn't feel the need to finish. Not impressive. Some folks ordered the tuna tacos and steak. They were all eaten quickly. The steaks ordered medium were on the medium rare side so cooked appropriately. Oysters were good. Scallops were okay. Chocolate cake just okay. Churros were great. If I were dining here again I would probably just do dessert and appetizers. The flan paired well with their decaf coffee. They were out of the French toast. The flan was VERY good. Not the best thing and the table but it was good.

    We always frequent this location in the galleria for our Sunday brunch rotation. I like that options are always seasonal, so they add or switch dishes out based on what's in season. They have plenty of outdoor/indoor seating and are perfect for groups. There is something for everyone:salad, fresh seafood, chicken, pork, soup, tamales, desserts. Service is always attentive and efficient. Just slide your plates to the edge of the table when your ready for another round and they make sure to pick them up and replace your silverware. Be sure to stop by for their amazing Sunday Brunch Buffet. Enter freely, they've been approved

    Best happy hour in town! Check everything I got on a Friday happy hour 3-6:30pm Service is excellent, very single item was delicious and on point! This place always makes me want to go to oaxaca!! I recommend the Zacahuil is like a tamal but with mushroom and it's on a banana leaf that gives the tamale a soft and moist finish.

    This food is absolutely amazing. My date ate many things she never ate before. And she absolutely loved it all. Very fresh. High high quality. Very creative. Hugo Ortega is the master of quality restaurants in Houston !!!!!

    Overall a good experience, really great service but just okay food. Cute spot and walkable to the galleria Saturday happy hour is a great addition but if you order off the normal menu, you'll get chips and salsa.

    Potato's tacos.

    The food was fantastic. And the looks is great and beautiful! We ate the Houston Restaurant week. Great choices - especially for vegetarians and gluten free.

    Brunch buffet
    Saavi S.

    The brunch buffet here is HANDSDOWN a banger. Although it is on the pricier side, you are definitely getting your moneys worth with the food. You get unlimited oysters, lamb chops, ceviche, and just so many more meat and seafood options. Let's also not forget about the unlimited guac they have on deck. The food doesn't taste like it's been sitting out for awhile like how typical buffets do. It tastes as if just fresh and made for individual tables. The flavors are amazing, and taste authentic. The dessert table just left me lost for what I should try. My favorite thing was the creme brulee and tres leches. Service was amazing there was always someone there to clear the tables and check in on us to make sure we have everything we need. Already planning my next trip back on a Sunday.

I wasn't sure what to expect based on the name of the restaurant, but essentially their seafood options are spectacular. And it feels like an exclusive club because the decor and service are both very much high class and special. We tried the coconut shrimp as the appetizer and really liked it. It was lightly fried and the shrimp was cooked to perfection - not under and not over. I would highly recommend this one to start. Loved it. If you're looking for a fair-priced meal, they have lots of salad and sandwich options. I tried the salmon poke bowl and it was so delicious. The fish was extremely fresh, and all the flavors blended together really well. It was like a healthy party in my mouth. It was great decision. You wanna splurge a bit and live large like YOLO? You gotta get the crab cake. Now, how good can a crab cake be? Well, if you're paying close to $50 for one crab cake, you better believe it's gonna be freaking awesome. And alas, it was. Best crab cake I've ever had in my life, no joke. And I've tried a lot of crab cakes in my many decades of dining out. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant and will be coming back many times. Enjoy! Quick note on parking - plenty of parking in a huge lot shared by many businesses such as Kenny and Ziggy's. Only annoying part is several sections of the lot are designated for specific businesses, so just look for the signs and be willing to park a little bit further away towards Taco Deli and Bluestone.

    I was excited to finally try Balboa Surf Club since I drive by it all the time and it's located…read morenear several of my favorite restaurants. Unfortunately, this turned out to be one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've had in quite some time. We had an 8:00 PM reservation but weren't seated until around 8:30 PM. While delays happen and I was willing to overlook that, the experience only went downhill from there. We ordered Palomas to kick off our Friday night. The drinks took quite a while to arrive, and when they did, they were noticeably watered down. I politely mentioned it to our server, who quickly took them back and brought replacements, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the second round was nearly identical to the first. When I brought it up again, instead of acknowledging the feedback, the server responded by saying it was "just not a sugary drink." That completely missed the point. I wasn't expecting a sweet cocktail--I was pointing out that the drinks tasted diluted and poorly made. What bothered me most wasn't the drinks themselves, but how the feedback was handled. I wasn't looking for free drinks or trying to be difficult. I was simply offering honest feedback, and it felt like my opinion was being dismissed rather than heard. Unfortunately, the food didn't redeem the experience. We ordered several dishes to get a good sense of the menu, and most were overwhelmingly salty. The salt overpowered any other flavors to the point that we couldn't finish some of the dishes. The sushi was the best thing we had, but even that lacked the presentation and quality I would expect at this price point. To be fair, the manager did remove the drinks from our bill as a courtesy, and I appreciate that gesture. However, by that point the damage had already been done. A resolution is only effective when guests feel heard and respected throughout the process. Instead, I felt like I had to defend my opinion and justify my feedback before anyone took it seriously. At the end of the day, a restaurant can be trendy, crowded, and beautifully designed, but none of that matters if the food and service don't deliver. Balboa Surf Club has the atmosphere and location, but in my experience it falls short where it matters most. Overall, I'm glad I finally tried it because I had always been curious, but now I know I won't be back and cannot recommend it. If you're looking for a similar concept, I'd recommend Hudson House. The atmosphere is comparable, but the drinks are consistently well-made, the food is much better, and the service has always been far superior.

    Back at one of my favorites!…read more Started with the Smoked Redfish Dip and, as always, it did not disappoint. Creamy, smoky, flavorful, and paired with warm crackers... an easy 10/10. I decided to step outside my comfort zone and try the Oysters Rockefeller... and let's just say they weren't my speed. They weren't bad, just not for me. So naturally I sent them back and ordered my tried-and-true favorite... Chargrilled Oysters with extra garlic butter, Parmesan, and bacon. Now THAT'S what I came for! Rich, buttery, cheesy, smoky, and absolutely loaded with flavor. Every bite reminded me why these are my go-to. And because brunch rules apply... it was only right to enjoy a pineapple mimosa (or two ). Light, refreshing, and the perfect pairing for all that seafood. If you're visiting Goode Co. Seafood, my advice is simple: Don't skip the Smoked Redfish Dip. Order the Chargrilled Oysters. Add extra garlic butter. Thank me later. 9.5/10 -- I'll definitely be back! #LoveJonesEats #HoustonEats #GoodeSeafood #ChargrilledOysters #SeafoodLover #HoustonFoodie #BrunchVibes #MimosaMood #SupportLocal #FoodieFinds

    Beware of what's in your food if you eat here…read more I left Goode Company Seafood with a cracked tooth after biting into a hard foreign object in my meal and needed dental treatment. After multiple calls and emails over several weeks, someone finally called and offered me a gift card. A cracked tooth isn't worth a gift card. The way this was handled was disgusting. No accountability whatsoever!

    I would say that boiled crawfish is one of if not my favorite food, and in the past I've tried…read morethese little rascals at several restaurants in town. Having said that, one would say that I'm a Crawfish whisperer In the past I've always waited until they are big enough to even take the time to eat the flesh out of the claws, and that time is NOW, when the NBA playoffs are in full swing... For years I have called Bayou City Seafood around this time to ask what size they are, and this year was no different. I trust them to be honest with me, and they always are. So, if you either love crawfish or if you have always wanted to try them, there's no place in the city that's better. We go at 6:30 and sit at the bar. I order three pounds, which sounds like a lot but the tail has all the meat. Corn and potatoes are extra and the Boudin as an appetizer is fabulous. BTW, one of their craft beers is the perfect pairing. The service is excellent and our waitress at the bar was new, friendly, and very accommodating. I can't imagine a better experience eating great tasting crawfish at a better restaurant than Bayou City. If you go, go now, and look for me at the bar I crawfish!!! Don't forget to 'suck the heads'! It's not the brains you're sucking, it's just the juices from the fat and the crawfish boil.

    So I am not a seafood eater, so my review should not have any impact on the seafood lovers. I…read moreordered pasta aspen. Service was good. There was parking as well. The food was just lack luster. There was no flavor at all. Like I could not taste love or hate in this meal. The portion size was good for two people to split. The food just was not appetizing for me. I went on a Friday night for date night. The chicken was dry like the chicken breast was overcooked - I personally just would not return but again it could just be that I had high hopes for pasta.
