We stopped by Hearsay Bar & Grill during our stay at the Embassy Suites because it's conveniently attached to the hotel. Since the hotel is dog friendly, we assumed the restaurant would be as well. Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed inside and are limited to a very small outdoor patio with only a few tables. The patio overlooks the street and a utility building, so the atmosphere wasn't particularly inviting. The biggest downside was that while we were enjoying our drinks outside, we noticed several cockroaches scurrying around the patio area. That definitely took away from the experience. To be fair, the staff were polite and accommodating, and the drinks we ordered were good. However, compared to many of the other dog-friendly places we visited in Houston, this was our least favorite stop. If you're staying at the Embassy Suites with a dog, it's certainly convenient, but there are much better dog-friendly options within walking distance around Discovery Green. Dogba's verdict: Good drinks, questionable patio companions. read more

Popped in for lunch after getting turned away for dinner the prior night without reservations. Make sure you make reservations for dinner! For lunch, we got waited on right away without a reservation. Started by sharing a side beet salad & cup of gumbo. Both were quite yummy. Had the morning sandwich with over medium egg. Overall the sandwich was good but you need all the ingredient it comes with, don't eliminate any, otherwise you might be disappointed. The ham is so thin I couldn't really taste it. Actually, the over medium egg and the croissant (and the onions I added) were the most dominate part of the sandwich. Rosemary French fries were quite wonderful! Our server was attentive and the vibe was chill & pleasant for lunchtime. I really like their menu. Its a nice, diverse menu offering a little bit of something for everyone. I'd come back & try other items! read more

Stopped in after leaving the astros game early. Was pretty dead which made sense for a Sunday at 2:30pm. Service was a bit slow but we enjoyed ourselves and the quiet ambiance nonetheless. Espresso martini was fairly basic. Boyfriend got a Guinness but they had to change the keg so it took a while. Once we got it, it was pretty sour. We all tried it including the staff and agreed it was off. Our waiter brought us a free drink, the pear of aces, which none of us would have ordered but it was quite delightful. Then got another free espresso martini due to a mix up - we'll take it! Food wise we had the Tuscan chicken pasta, the chicken Milanese and the filet mignon. Pasta was good, both hardy and light, hit the spot! Milanese was delicious and perfectly cooked. Filet didn't seem like a filet cut but was ok. Overall, we enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff was friendly, just a little slow. Food was surprisingly good for a hotel restaurant. Free drinks made a big difference. We appreciate any place that brings drinks to make up for shortcomings. Wouldn't commute into downtown for it but if in downtown and want a warm comforting meal, relaxed atmosphere and aren't in a rush would recommend stopping in. Will be back for that pear of aces drink! read more

First and only experience was a late lunch visit when the restaurant was quiet and almost empty. The staff were very polite, friendly and helpful to those new to the menu. The Cuban was a solid 4/5 but the French Fries were a 5/5. The sandwich was very large but the amount of bread overwhelmed the contents inside. The meal started with a golden beet salad which was a 4/5. I had made an attempt to try dinner the previous night and it was very crowded with an hour wait. So consider the restaurant's popularity when deciding to visit. Overall, the food and setting made a great experience which I enjoyed and look forward to repeating. read more

The harvest salad - YES PLEASE! I was in town for a conference, and I came back two nights in a row for that. How do they do that warm goat cheese ball?! Service was fine, but the decor and vibe was an especially nifty scene! We were asked both nights if we had reservations. The second night they said they didn't have a table, but there were definitely some open the entire time we waited for our to-go order to take back to the hotel, so that was odd. Definitely a spot to check out, though! read more

Ten years later, I find myself back in Houston and, honestly, I had forgotten I had visited this place before until I went to write a review. Tucked in alongside the Embassy Suites, Hearsay on the Green is a lovely venue. It feels a bit misleading to label it simply as a bar and grill, as it aspires to be more upscale than that; "gastropub" is likely a more fitting description. They offer a large selection of whiskeys, although I opted for a few pours of local IPAs instead. The Hearsay Cheeseburger was quite good, and the roasted Brussels sprouts with bacon and balsamic glaze were the perfect side dish. read more

Came here on Easter Sunday for a family brunch and it was underwhelming. The food took a really long time. One order was forgotten. My vegetarian menu item (plant based impossible burger) came with a. Strip of bacon on it. The burger was simply ok, everyone else liked their food but overall we were disappointed with the service, especially since the restaurant wasn't packed . Our server was really nice and the restaurant was very clean with nice decor but I wouldn't come back anytime soon read more

My husband and I came in last weekend while we did a staycation at Embassy. Though the restaurant was consistently busy, service was excellent. Josh was our server, and he provided excellent recommendations for what we should order. (My husband and I actually both got salmon.) He ensured our water was refilled and that we had an enjoyable experience. The restaurant remained busy, but it wasn't super loud. I'd advise making a reservation to err on the safe side. I appreciate the menu noting which items are gluten free, as I'm extremely intolerant. Josh also asked if anyone had food allergies the kitchen should be aware of when he first came to our table. We will definitely be back! read more

We made a noon reservation for my friend's birthday on a Thursday. There were very few tables. The tables are mostly high top style but there are standard tables in the party area. There's a huge chandelier near the front of the place. Decor is warm. Our waiter was quick to take our order and brought the food out quickly. I ordered the vegetable plate but added a medium salmon. It was a portion for two people really. I ate all the salmon but the vegetables included green beans, broccolini, mushrooms, peppers, squash, yellow beets. To my surprise there was a grid goat cheese ball. A side of pearl couscous. It all tasted so warm and made my lunch. It was so cold and dreary outside. I wanted something healthy and not just a cold salad. read more

We dropped in for a quick bite before a concert at the Toyota Center. We were seated right away at 5:15 PM. We saw the Houston Restaurant Week menu and decided to try it, 3 courses for $39 sounded good. We shared all of our courses between two people. Here's what we ordered: * cheesesteak egg rolls- comes one roll, cut in half. Served hot and crispy, * Kung Pao Shrimp & Calamari - crispy and yummy, complaint is there was only 2 shrimps but the dish is bigger than expected. * Seared Atlantic Salmon - asked for it to be cooked medium, was perfect temperature, with light crisp on the outside. * Beef Short Rib - the meat was tender, cheese grits were so good. The Brussels sprouts were too greasy and the beef was drenched in heavy sauce. After scraping off the sauce, found the meat to be very good. * Crème Brûlée - perfect, no complaints. Must order if this is your dessert. * Hearsay Bread Pudding- served warm with vanilla ice cream, so deliciously moist with the caramel topping. I would definitely order this every time. Our waitress didn't appear after serving entree until we were done with it. I needed refill on water and waited 10 mins before getting it. The restaurant was not crowded, appeared to be at 30% occupancy by the time we left. Tables near the front of the restaurant is closely positioned, feels crowded. Parking is a challenge here, being by the Toyota Center and other busy venues. read more

Okay I'm just going to be honest...I was not a fan of this restaurant experience. The ambience is nice. I could see it being a good place for a drink but that's about it. It's absolutely a hotel restaurant and you can tell. The food was mediocre. We got the Caesar salad which had no dressing and when we asked for some more they barely gave us a spoonful more. I'm convinced that the "short rib" was actually just a piece of overcooked chuck roast. The Brussels sprouts were pretty good but the bacon they used tasted like bacon bits you buy as a salad topper. The service was lackluster. We had to hunt our waiter down most of the time. It took forever to get our drinks which turned out to be a warm can of soda. We had to hunt our server down just to pay for our food. The overall experience was just underwhelming. We most likely won't return. read more

This is a good spot for drinks and apps and I enjoyed the vibes, relaxed and upscale, but also good tv coverage for sports. Evetyone who worked here was so helpful! We started with the cheesesteak egg rolls and deviled eggs- which were really the highlight of the meal! I loved thge egg rolls that had just a bit of spice and came with a great sweet chili sauce. The deviled eggs also came with bacon jam- my personal fav. The old fashioned was perfect! Entrees were a bit disspointing, the Espresso Roasted pork was dry and flavorless, and the Crab Crusted Redfish was a real disappointment- not real crab, just baked into a thin batter. Once you had eaten that, it was very unseasoned and bland. read more

I was in Houston for a birthday trip with some girl friends and I am so glad we stopped here! We were looking for a nice place to get dinner and stumbled here. It was beautifully decorated and delicious. The server was amazing and great with recommendations. We started with drinks but were indecisive so we gave the base of drink and that we wanted fruity and we each got our own unique drink. The main plates were incredible. I ordered the bistro steak, the mushroom sauce was so good, the steak was cooked perfectly, the green beans were crunchy and delicious and the mashed potatoes were perfectly creamy and buttery. My friends got the ribeye and pork chops and those were also great. The Brussels sprout and broccolini that came with their dishes was also prepared perfectly. They gave me a complimentary dessert for my birthday with sparklers lol it was so fun! Definitely a great dinner spot and I look forward to coming back next time I am in town read more

Let's start with the not so great: The old fashions taste watered down and I think the drinks need help. The Great: The street corn with the redfish tacos is amazing, my favorite dish. The steak and blue cheese pizza was tasty but if the steak pieces were smaller and spread around as much as the blue cheese it might be better. All in all a solid choice for food! read more

Came to eat here with a couple friends before our concert and it was okay! The food here was not bad at all! We had burgers with fries and it tasted great! The fries were my favorite, they were well-seasoned and crispy! The burger was also good and every ingredient blended together well! Our server was incredibly kind and accommodating, making sure that we got everything we needed and removing off certain parts of the burgers that me and my friends did not like. My only concern with this place is that some of the utensils and plates had some leftover residue on it that weren't completely washed off, which scared me a bit but I just tried wiping it off myself with a napkin. Overall great place to dine at with great food options and fantastic service! read more

hearsay is quite a classy place to be located so close to a children's park. after a day of playing at the park, i stumbled into hearsay in desperate need of a ceasar salad & lemon drop. naturally, i was under dressed because i just left the park.. but who cares.. the money spent was still green. i do feel that my casual aesthetic encouraged waitstaff to take their time despite the restaurant not being busy. it took over 15 mins to get water... which was unnecessary. once we got past watergate, the server was kind. the lemon drop was decent, a bit sour for my liking... but the glass was gorgeous. the salad was great it just wasn't very "ceasary ". personally, it was a one off for me and i don't feel inclined to return, unless i find myself desperate at the park. however, i do think it's worth a try if you are directly in the vicinity.. but its unnecessary to make a trip for. all in all, its solid. bonne appètit read more

Came here with my lovely friend before the Usher concert - Past, Present & Future 11/27. It's walking distance to Toyota Center. Hearsay has many locations around town. I have been to one before. We wanted to catch happy hour before it ended at 6p, and we did. Place was not crowded when we got there at 5:30p, we were easily sat at the bar. But by the time we left it was packed with Usher fans waiting for the concert, grabbing a bite. I guess they had the same idea we had. Drinks- I had a beer on HH for $5, and then the Pink Delicious. It was tasty I would order this again. I liked that it was well balanced, had some body to it and not too sweet. It was $10 on HH, regular price $12. Food - we decided to snack up before the show, and had the parmesan fries. The servers were busy at the bar, but we were able to order, and eventually check out fairly easily. read more

We went for a New Years Eve dinner and they had a specific menu for the night, 4 courses. The food was all very good, our server was very nice and attentive for the most part and the restaurant was festively decorated for the holidays. We parked in the parking garage next door however we were expecting valet since it's downtown but only saw hotel overnight valet and nothing else for the restaurant. Not a big deal, but convenience of valet would have been nice. Our table we sat at was right at the door, there were others available but they said they were full (we had reservations as well), so thought nothing of it, this was table we got but we were there two hours and the other tables stayed available the whole time. Not usually picky on table or seating, but being right at the door and no waiting area for guests coming in, when a large group arrived they may as well been sitting with us because they have no where to go but to stand around the first two tables at the door. It is a quaint little space and we'd likely come back and also suggest it to others. Good location if you're going to a game or show at Toyota as well. read more

First thing, drinks here are amazing! We got a few and loved every single one. Our server was great and personable. I'm sad to say that I really did not enjoy the food.

It's downtown houston, so I expected the parking situation to be bad. Ambiance of this place was lovely. Perfect for a business dinner or a date night with friends or a loved one. Waitstaff was exceptionally kind- truly some of the best service I've had. However, the food didn't wow me. It was a fairly good selection of different dishes to choose from, however, I've had better pasta before, and better drinks. Would come back to try something different. read more

Four work colleagues ate here for lunch while attending a convention. It is a quick walk from the convention center. Best to make a reservation even for lunch.

I wanted to really like this place. As someone who works in the field of law, the name is fun. And especially as it's so close to the Houston courthouses. But we ordered a beer. They were out of it, which l get happens. But then when we ordered an alternate beer, they took 10 minutes to bring it. Unacceptable. We decided to go elsewhere as we felt we were getting the cold shoulder from the bartender. And it's too bad, because the feel of the place was actually really cool. read more

I came here with a business party and so only was able to sample the drink menu and the appetizer menu but what I experienced was pretty good. I loved the ambience of the space, exposed brick walls and dark wood tones. The bar area was a beautiful, long wooden bar that was packed with people. A bit small but our large group was towards the back in a private area. Food-wise, we tried an assortment of items off of the appetizer menu. The cheeseburger sliders were my absolute favorite. I would gladly eat a full scale version of that slider, so good. I was very enticed by their old-fashioned mixer set up at the bar. I sat watched the liquor slowly drip and saturate itself through this interesting contraption. Interested, I ordered one to try it out and honestly, I wasn't that impressed. It seemed a little watered down so I decided to get another one to see if that would be any different. Still lacking complexity of flavor as I have had with other OFs. Oh well, I saw other great reviews on their drinks so maybe just not my night. Always a shot for next time. They are in a great area within walking distance of many big name hotels and a beautiful park. I will be back when in town. read more

Decided to treat myself to lunch and visited the new spot at Levy Park. I loved how lighted it was with all the windows. The speakeasy feel was kinda neat. Service was just ok. I was a little let down when I asked about the food choices I didn't get much of a response. Same for the drinks I was just immediately offered the girly choices of drinks. The food was good. For me a bit of salty but I don't use much salt more of a spices girl. Over all it was a quiet place in the afternoons to go hang out read a book or catch up on some remote work. read more
