Inside it's a nice restaurant with an upscale feel to it. I ordered a house salad for $9 to start and the Pasta Rosa entree for another $28. The salad arrived first with a generous amount of romaine lettuce with diced tomatoes, cucumber, shredded carrots and chopped eggs on top. With my chosen ranch dressing it was a good tasting salad. The Pasta Rosa dish had sliced Parmesan strips on top of penne with shrimp, crawfish and sausage for the protein with mushrooms and a tomato cream sauce. This meal initially tricked me. My first impression was that while there was plenty of protein the taste of the tomato cream sauce was lacking some flavor. I expected more. However as I kept eating and getting beyond the top layer of the food the flavor increased significantly. I think that the proteins caused the sauce in the lower half of the dish to create more punch. This dish got better and better and I changed my mind. It turned out to be a very good tasting and filling meal. Finally the table service was very good too. P.S. I also tried part of another appetizer which was the bar b q shrimp for $16. They were tasty. I like Rouxpour and would return. My only negative is that their prices are a little on the high side in my opinion.

The entire place feels clean, relaxed, and genuinely fun. Instead of picking through lukewarm trays under heat lamps, you order whatever you want and they bring it fresh straight to your table. The sushi is legitimately tasty and made-to-order. Don't sleep on the beef short ribs either--they've got a savory, slightly salty punch that hits just right with a side of rice. The drinks are solid, and the pricing hits that sweet spot: perfect for a casual, low-pressure date night where you both want to eat really well without any stiff, over-the-top pretense. Left completely full, had a great time, and already looking forward to going back

The lobster rolls were also a favorite at our table. I really liked the interior as well. The restaurant has a cool Japanese inspired design and architecture that gives it a much more interesting atmosphere than your typical sushi restaurant. Service was okay. the restaurant was surprisingly quiet for 7:30 on a Friday night, I felt it could have been a little more attentive. We also had a few extra items brought to the table that we hadn't ordered, although it wasn't a huge issue. Ordering is done by writing the quantity you want next to each menu item with a marker, which was pretty easy and straightforward. Overall, we had a good experience and there were definitely some dishes I enjoyed. However, it's pretty far from where I live, and I personally think there are better all you can eat sushi options closer to me. I wouldn't make the drive specifically for Blue Claw, but it's worth checking out if you're already in the area!

This was my first experience with Credence and the atmosphere was new, modern and a little noisy. The lunch gnocchi was my first experience with gnocchi (in particular cornmeal gnocchi) so I have nothing with which to compare; I would probably not have it again but it wasn't bad. I have had plenty of beet salads and this didn't make the top ten. The grilled tuna salad my husband ordered rated a 0 on a scale of 1-5. The tuna may have been grilled as advertised, but there was no evidence of it, and there was absolutely no taste to it. I would have expected there to be some seasoning, but again, no evidence. The green beans were so crunchy they might as well have been fresh-picked and the sauce over the snow peas was so tasteless, Ranch dressing would have been a huge improvement. I could only eat one, and I really like snow peas. Until they get a better chef, I will not be returning.

This is the first year that we've ordered from the Restaurant Week menu. We ordered calamari, and crab cakes for our appetizers. We also ordered a cup of clam chowder from the main menu. Tge bacon flavor was a bit overpowering and there were hardly any clams in the soup. The crab cake had generous amounts of crab and not too much filler. The calamari was good, but the texture was off. We ordered short rib risotto and pacific snapper with couscous. The short rib risotto was good. The snapper was delicious with a nice crust on the outside. The couscous was overcooked and needed salt. We ended our meal with a chocolate cake and apple pie. Both were luke warm and it seemed like they just rushed it out of the kitchen . Both could have been so much better if they were served warm/hot. Overall good place.

It's not your typical naengmyeon, and I loved that they had so many different variations since that's something you don't normally see. The broth was SO flavorful and refreshing, and even my friends who had never had cold noodles before ended up loving them! We also ordered the tofu soup, raw marinated crab, and raw shrimp, and honestly everything we had was so fresh, clean, and incredibly flavorful. The banchan was another standout for me because you could tell everything was really high quality. Just be warned that some of the side dishes are VERY spicy haha. One thing I also appreciated was how quickly all of the food came out despite the restaurant being busy. Overall, I can definitely see why this place gets so much hype. Every dish tasted thoughtfully made, and the quality of the ingredients really stood out. If you're coming for the first time, I would 100% recommend trying the cold noodles--they're unlike any I've had before and are absolutely worth ordering! I already can't wait to come back and try more of the menu.

When it arrived, we realized we never received any banchan. The owner happened to notice when she brought out one of our dishes and apologized by bringing it out then. On top of that, we still hadn't received the water and alcohol we had requested at the beginning. We had to track down a server ourselves just to get our drinks. There wasn't really an apology--just an "okay" kind of reaction. I understand restaurants get busy, but it wasn't even crowded. After that, no one came back to check on us. When we were finished eating, we had to walk up to the front to pay because no server ever came by. Overall, the service was very slow and disappointing. As for the food, I'd give it about a 5-6/10. It was pretty mediocre--just basic Korean food without much flavor or anything memorable. I recently moved here from California and have been searching for really good Korean food in Houston, but unfortunately this wasn't it.

EXCEPTIONAL CULINARY EXPERIENCE FROM BEGINNING - END…read more LUXURY, PALATE PLEASER, ELEGANCE AT ITS FINEST From the moment we arrived, this dining experience embodied sophistication, impeccable hospitality, and culinary excellence. As my husband and I celebrated the special milestone of our 20th anniversary of finding our way back to one another, every detail was thoughtfully curated to make the evening unforgettable. The experience began with the valet attendant, who greeted us with a warm smile and genuine welcome, immediately setting the tone for what would become a remarkable evening. Upon being escorted to our table, we were greeted by delicate red rose petals beautifully displayed across the tabletop, creating an ambiance that was both romantic and elegant. It was evident that this was not simply a restaurant visit, but an experience designed to make guests feel celebrated and valued. What truly elevated the evening was the exceptional level of service. Our server, Mya, was nothing short of extraordinary. Her gracious demeanor, extensive knowledge of the menu, and sincere attentiveness made us feel as though we were the only guests in the restaurant. She anticipated our needs effortlessly and guided us through the menu with confidence and enthusiasm. Her ability to provide attentive service while remaining poised and humble was impressive and worthy of recognition. We often joke that we wished we could bring her home to serve every meal. The hospitality continued with Kellen, the Bar Manager, who personally stopped by to ensure we were enjoying our experience, and Ed, who also took the time to welcome us and make us feel appreciated. Their personal touches reinforced the restaurant's commitment to excellence and made us feel genuinely cared for throughout the evening. The cuisine was equally impressive. We began with the creamy Spinach Dip, which was rich, flavorful, and the perfect introduction to the meal. Our selection of Aqua Panna water and two glasses of Moscato complemented each course beautifully. The seasonal Chickpea Soup was comforting and well-balanced, while the Lobster Bisque was velvety, luxurious, and bursting with flavor. The Signature Wedge Salad, topped with bacon, green onions, and tomatoes, offered a refreshing contrast and showcased the quality of each ingredient. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly Perry's Famous Pork Chop, expertly carved tableside and served on a cast-iron plate. The presentation alone was impressive, but the flavor surpassed expectations. Perfectly caramelized, tender, and exceptionally moist, it was a masterclass in preparation and execution. The Cedar Plank Fired Redfish was equally memorable, delivering delicate texture and subtle smoky flavor that showcased the freshness of the fish. We concluded our meal with a Lemon Bar that was light, refreshing, and the perfect ending to an extraordinary dining experience. This establishment delivers far more than exceptional food. It offers an atmosphere of refinement, heartfelt hospitality, and attention to detail that transforms an evening into a cherished memory. The elegant surroundings, impeccable service, and outstanding cuisine combined to create a celebration worthy of our special occasion. For anyone seeking an elevated dining experience, whether for an anniversary, milestone celebration, or simply an unforgettable evening out, this restaurant exemplifies luxury, sophistication, and excellence in every sense of the word.

The dine-in experience, fine. I'll give you kudos. BUT, the to-go experience leaves lots to be…read moredesired. When one asks for to-go, I know that the experience will be different. Not lessened, but different. Everyone knows and loves the Friday pork chop. Good portion, good flavor and great value. However, WHY is it important to stuff all condiment containers, sides containers, foil-wrapped bread AND the pork chop into one larger container? That way, all the oils, dirt and dust (from the individual containers) are all now mingled with the cooked meat and everything has a generous coating of oils and meat juice, inside the larger container. And as an added bonus, you may need gloves to take it all out of the package in order to eat it. Mind you, the cooked meat is hot and...guess what? The semi-solid whipped butter for the bread is now butter soup. Who is approving this packaging? Why don't you get a small container for just the meat and "brown paper bag" all the rest of the sides and condiments? It's baffling that someone thinks this is acceptable. The message is clear - Don't order takeout and always sit in the restaurant because your experience will be highly degraded from the regular dine-in experience. Do better.
