    Mahi salad (i cut the mahi before taking picture)
    Gloria M.

    First time trying the mahi salad. It was refreshing and fish was perfectly cooked. I'll get this again.

    I got the Ahi Tuna flat bread with yam fries. First off I had the Ahi Tuna rare and not sure why its still very dry. I had it with yam fries and the portion of the yam fries was so little. The Ahi Tuna was ok. At the end of the meal there is free complementary ice cream. Not sure if I had too much ice cream or there is something wrong with the ice cream itself or the cone. Well I felt sick after having the ice cream. Luckily, I threw up and got whatever it was out of my system and was ok. I don't think I will be going back.

    No matter your palette D7 delivers with naan pizza, salads, burgers, pastas, fish and don't forget your free ice cream cone. I especially like trying there daily specials which usually is some tasty fish plate. The line always seems long, but it actually goes quick. Order your food, get a number, have a seat and wait for them to bring you your food. As packed as it gets I have never really had to wait for seating no matter how big our group.

    Red fish salad

    if my coworkers and I venture out this far to the tunnels and still haven't made a decision with other restaurants along the way, this is not a bad place to settle and get lunch especially for a big group. You look at the paper menus on the right when you enter the door and head over to the cashier to order. They give you a number and drinks are self serve. Service is fairly quick depending on what time you come, the menu has a variety of options and there's plenty of tables. The soft serve ice cream is a hit or miss regarding if the machine is working or not that day. I've been here several times and haven't had any qualms. They ran out of mahi-mahi when I was trying to order the blackened mahi-mahi salad and the cashier mentioned they can do red fish instead. I agreed to it and also asked they sub my romaine lettuce with spinach leaves with dressing on the side and they were accommodating. To my surprise the red fish was well cooked and great. As simple as the salad was, it satisfied my taste buds. The lemon garlic vinaigrette dressing was a nice touch to the overall salad and a good dip for my red fish. I have had the blackened mahi-mahi salad before and it was also tasty. I've also had the bison buffalo burger and it was decent. Overall this place isn't my go to when I'm having lunch downtown but it's one of my choices if the coworkers I'm with don't agree with my top choices.

    Parmessan Crusted Chicken with linguine pesto

    We visited the District 7 Grill tunnel location in the Kinder-Morgan building. Thankfully we arrived before the lunch rush and we had only a small wait which provided sufficient time to review the menu. The dining room has a lot of tables for 4 and was extremely clean. The staff was friendly and attentive. We dined on the Parmesan Crusted Chicken, Jumbo Lump Crab Cake, Tortilla Soup, Burgers. Everything was flavorful and cooked perfectly. I recommend stopping by if you find yourself in the tunnel and if not it is definitely worth the trip. While eating, the line extended out the door. Plan your visit accordingly, you won't regret it.

    I came to district 7 for lunch on a weekday. The line was out the door but moved a pretty good pace. The menu is full of pasta bowls, salad, pizza and sandwiches. I opted for the parmesan crusted chicken with pesto (option for marinara too). The plating of the dish was great, I was excited to taste it, and it was big portion as well. Thats where it went down hill, the food had no taste what so ever. Usually pesto sauces have a strong flavor and taste fresh, this sauce was very bland. I had to salt and pepper it to get some down. The chicken was also very greasy and all I could taste was the panko breading, none of the parmesean. The highlight of my meal was the free softserve ice cream... I wont be returning, at least to this locations, I'e heard the midtown location is better.

    Garden burger. Ehh.

    (*Edit* I've discovered you serve $2 breakfast tacos. And they're not terrible. Good job -you've been upgraded to 2.5 stars. ;p *Edit*) 3 chances and ya struck out District. The salad was the betterment of what you presented, but not as good as Corner Bakery or Alonti. I just can't throw that much money at you hoping one of your items is really worth it. For some reason I still want to try a pizza and burger. I require a coworker's bribe of free food to come back, though.

    Pepperoni and venison sausage with basil.
    Cicely B.

    This restaurant is located in the downtown tunnels and is great for lunch. They serve food that is cooked fresh, like salmon fillet with orzo (had that last time). My favorite dish is the pepperoni and wild boar pizza which comes with basil and pesto. There's always a long line, so take an early lunch or come after the crowd. The seats are first come, so if you have a group, scope the place while in line. They also offer complimentary ice cream for after your meal, but I'm greedy, so root beer float. Overall, if your client/boss insists on treating and you need to stay healthy, go here because there are many delicious options that don't expand the waist.

    Special (9/8/16) salmon with siracha, broccolini and quinoa. VERRYY good, healthy and fulfilling.
    Faye D.

    I work downtown right off of Louisiana Street so this location is very close and convenient for me. The place gets VERY packed after 11:30 for lunch time (it seems to be a very popular spot for lunch) so be prepared to wait in a long line and hope to find a seat. You order at the counter and then run to reserve your table basically. The cashiers and servers are quick and well trained to handle the lunch time traffic. The first time I came I had a salad which I didn't like at all. I felt it was too plain and something I could've put together at home. I wouldn't recommend the salad, they look better than they taste. My second time I ordered the special, which was seared salmon with a siracha sauce with brocollini and quinoa. It was AMAZING! If this was a regular menu item I would be here every other day. The salmon was a big portion and so soft that it melted in my mouth. The burgers here are massive and very unique. The naan flatbread pizzas look very good, I plan to try one next time. The menu has a lot of appealing items. Overall it's a very good place to eat when you're downtown and don't want to eat typical fast good. The portions are very big and the prices are very affordable!

    I like this part of town and have been meaning to try them for lunch. The food is on the healthier side and is well priced. However, I do think the food could be seasoned a little more! Portions are large.

It's worth making the trip now, not later. The menu is exceptionally well-curated, hitting that sweet spot of what Houston does best. comfort, creativity, and just enough flair to keep things interesting. The space matches the vibe: modern and minimalist with a subtle Chip-and-Joanna-Gaines touch. The drink menu is just as thoughtful. Even the well spirits are solid. We kicked things off with the deviled eggs topped with maple pork belly, easily some of the creamiest I've ever had. Do not split an order. Everyone at the table should get their own. For the entrée, I went with the Sunday enchiladas made with Killen's famous brisket. Smoke, salt, pepper and exactly what you want from a dish like this. It typically comes with Mexican rice and refried beans, but the rice was running behind during my visit, so I swapped in scrambled eggs (it was brunch) no complaints. They were simple buttery, creamy and just damn delicious. peach bread pudding that was downright decadent. Easily one of the best desserts I've had in a long time. Make you wanna slap yo momma.

Nice cozy place, perfect setting for fried chicken. I am sure they had other stuff, but that was the mission for this visit.

Had the special which was to legs and two thighs for the price of the 3 pc dark. Beans and slaw. Ok, the chicken was great, moist, seasoned, very well cooked. I will go out of my way to go here for the chicken. Beans, canned with a little flavor added, nothing to brag about the slaw was pretty good. The fries on my friend's plate looked great. Perfect. We got here at about 1145, the place was busy. By 1215, it was packed, but they move people through and do a booming take out. Try it, you will like it. It satisfied my fried chicken desire and.

I enjoyed their fried chicken, which for around $12, came with a thigh and leg, along with ample amounts of coleslaw and fried okra. Even I, as a voracious eater, could not finish all the sides. The chicken itself was beautifully fried in peanut oil, and truly one of the best, juiciest, fried chicken pieces I have ever had. This place is an example of simplicity at its finest. If you are in Houston and craving some down to earth fried chicken, Gus's is the place to go!

In the past, I have been a huge advocate for this establishment and have recommended Grace's to countless family members and friends. Unfortunately, after my experience today, I can no longer say that I would confidently recommend this restaurant. My aunt came into town to celebrate her birthday and wanted to go somewhere nice for brunch, so naturally, I recommended Grace's. I made reservations for 12:30 PM, and our family traveled approximately an hour from the Cypress/Katy area to celebrate Labor Day together. Unfortunately, the experience started off poorly and continued throughout our entire meal. After being seated, our waiter came over, introduced himself, and then we did not hear from him again for approximately 20-25 minutes. During that time, he did not take our drink order, ask if we wanted appetizers, or even bring the complimentary cornbread. We were literally looking around trying to find our waiter. Thankfully, we were able to get the attention of a manager, who took our drink order and brought our drinks himself. That alone should have been an indication that something was wrong with the service. Later, my mom and aunt ordered another round of drinks. My mom received hers, but my aunt's drink never came. Our food arrived, we ate, finished our meal, and her drink still had not been brought to the table. At that point, my aunt told the waiter to cancel the drink and asked for the check because we were ready to leave. When we received the check, we noticed that a gratuity/service charge had been added. Since there were only three adults and two children in our party, we decided to speak with the manager--the same manager who had to take our drink order earlier. We explained our experience and the issues we had with the service. What was most disappointing was that instead of apologizing, acknowledging our concerns, or expressing any genuine concern about the experience we had just described, the manager made excuses. That response was extremely disappointing. I understand that restaurants can have busy days, mistakes happen, and service issues can occur. What made this experience particularly frustrating was the lack of accountability and customer service after we brought the issues to management's attention. I have been to Grace's numerous times, so I know what the experience is normally like. This was not an extremely busy day compared to what I am accustomed to seeing at Grace's, which made the poor service even more surprising. We drove an hour to celebrate my aunt's birthday and expected to have a great Labor Day brunch at a restaurant that I had personally recommended to my family. Instead, we left extremely disappointed. This was not the Grace's experience I have known in the past, and unfortunately, based on today's experience, I will think twice before recommending or returning to this location.

Friday after work during happy hour and the prices could not be beat, especially with their lobster bites (was sitting at about $30, and we got them half off!) Drinks were fantastic! I selected the "Golden Cadillac" that comes with a miniature bottle of Grand Marnier inside of it. Very good. My company decided on an array of appetizers for his "main course", while I went with their Fried Salmon (served with Mac and cheese, and collard greens). Omg! So tasty! The pepper was prevalent throughout, but it did not over power the flavor! I make collard greens at home (and learned from one of the best), and even I found theirs to be pretty good! My company selected fried ribs, along with the lobster bites, and crawfish queso dip, and their wings! I tasted what he got, and we both agreed that the wings were "off the chart" delicious with a beautiful straight off the grill smoky flavor! So good that he got another order to go! Lol. What made our experience there amazing was our server Ray (Rajean = think "the 90's TV Show "Living Single"..."smooches"!)...she was the best!! From her hello, to walking us through the menu (as first-timers), her recommendations, her energy, her smile, and her being very relatable. Loved her! My only gripe was the bathrooms, the ladies room needed attention (and could use a spruce all around). It doesn't help that it is a bit small, but yeah, they need to focus some efforts on ensuring it's upkeep. As for seating and parking, there is a bar area and limited seating toward the front of the restaurant, but it does extend to back of the house with additional seating. There is also patio seating as well. Because this place seems popular, it is best to reserve ahead to ensure your seating. Parking is very limited! They do however, offer valet (but at $20+). There is off-street parking, but be careful since this is a residential area and nothing is secure. All in all, I really had a great time and left with my belly full! Definitely worth checking out! What was lost is now found! Enjoy!

Tasty food, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere, what more can one ask for? We had two plates of brisket - half and half (lean and fatty) and chopped. Mac & cheese, potato salad, and creamed corn. And both types of puddings! The brisket was so tender and fell apart easily, which also went very well with the spicy bbq sauce. The chopped brisket was tasty too and went great with all the sides and the piece of bread. Everything was so good and to the point, which made it such a comfort food. If I really had to nitpick, I felt the potato in the potato salad was slightly underdone and crunchy, but not a big deal. Mac & cheese hit the spot and wow, the cream corn came out hot and was such a hit! The surprise standout for me was the banana pudding. It was perfectly sweet, delicious, and somehow didn't feel too heavy at all! I'm still craving it and wish I lived closer to this area just so I can swing by anytime.
