    Off the menu crab fingers
    Vivian H.

    My husband and I visited Pappas Seafood for a quick bite. The place is very classy, and the staff is great. We started with a cup of shrimp gumbo and got complimentary bread and butter; the bread was fresh and delicious. The gumbo was very tasty, with good‑sized shrimp. We also ordered something off the menu: crab fingers with fries. The crab fingers came in this magnificent Alexander sauce, truly finger‑licking good! We'll definitely be back to try some entrées. Great experience at Pappas.

    Sampler Platter

    My first time here but not my last! My hubby had been here before so he tried to earn me about the Fondue. He said once you taste it, you won't eat your food. Did I listen? No!!! The fondue is a meal on its own! Absolutely DELICIOUS!!! The sampler platters are great! Catfish cooked to perfection and they give large portions. Last but not least, was our server AJ! He was friendly and attentive. If in the area ask for him. He's excellent.

    Splitting the entree after the appetizer was  perfect for two and so damn good.

    Excellent Pre-cruise vacation Halloween dinner experience. Driving from DFW we stayed at a hotel across the highway and searched for a good food and somewhere we haven't been. What a great surprise to have a friendly and smart server (Cynthia) who guided the menu and a wonderful experience. Besides drinks and conversation we had some delicious oysters and the grouper special that was cooked to perfection. Check out the picture. Highly recommend this place.

    I am already a fan of Pappadeaux so I had to try this location for Pappas Seafood. I love the nautical theme. Very clean bathrooms and private booths. The service was great, I spoke with many staff members including the manager who welcomed me warmly! I ordered the fruits de mar 10/10, Salmon Alexander 10/10, Glass Slipper cocktail 8/10, 3 Wheeled Motion cocktail 10/10, and the pecan pie 9/10. Overall great experience and very conveniently close to the Houston Space Center.

    A bit on the pricey side but what do you expect from the Pappas? Fresh and Quality you can rely on. Grouper is one of my go to fish dishes and this did not disappoint. Sub in the Butter Potatoes vs the Spinach and it elevates the meal.

    I've been familiar with the Pappas bros. brand since I was a child, and in my opinion, there are some things Pappas restaurants get right, but there are also shortcomings and room for improvement here and there. We visited this location twice over the years to celebrate a family member's birthday. The first visit, a few years ago, was awesome! But the second visit, a few weeks ago, left a lot to be desired. Service was actually great in the beginning, and then, inexplicably, it quickly went downhill. The server hardly ever revisited the table once he acquired more tables, so I asked other members of the waitstaff for everything from correct containers (I was given just a plastic cup for fondue, lol) to bread (to go). My family member enjoyed their birthday lunch, but I am kind of a tough customer and this visit was below the usual standards of Pappas restaurants. Overall [3/5]. 1. Bread Service [4/5] - You could tell the bread here was baked a tad too long. It was somewhat springy, but not as memorable or well made as previous visits. 2. Strawberry Lemonade [2/5] - The Lemonade was neither tart nor did it have a good strawberry flavor. It was just pink lemonade, literally. The glass it was served in is also shorter compared to the last visit before this. 3. Crawfish & Shrimp Fondue [3/5] - This is what I often order when visiting a Pappadeaux or Pappas Seafood House. Something was missing, perhaps garlic or other herbs and spices. It just fell flat. However, the shrimp and crawfish were cooked well. 4. Garlic Bread [3/5] - Tough, overdone. Not up to usual standards. Hard to enjoy fondue with subpar garlic bread. I didn't eat much of either. 5. Shrimp Gumbo [3/5] - This was served first as an appetizer. I thought it lacked warmth (room temperature) and flavor. Gumbo should always be served hot. The roux/base tasted off. I couldn't detect thyme, bay leaves or mirepoix. It had a watered down taste. Texture of the shrimp was good, though. 6. Key Lime Pie [5/5] - This was actually a great slice of pie, which a family member who was celebrating their birthday shared with me. The berries were a nice touch! 7. Service [2/5] - See above. 8. Atmosphere [3/5] - Kind of boring this time. No laughter anywhere.

    House Salad
    Jessica S.

    Husband and I went for lunch, our food and service was excellent! Linda was our server, she was very friendly and polite! We each had a house salad with everything that includes fresh crisp lettuce, red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, cheese, and some of the best croutons! When we ordered we let Linda know that we were going to split the seafood platter and she had the cooks split it up for us, which was nice! We did split the stuffed crab and stuffed shrimp! They did have some huge lobsters in one of their tanks and one of these days, I am going to order one! It's a great place for as small as a party of two or several people!

    Salmon with Broccolili

    Ambience is great, food is delicious like always. Unfortunately as I returned to my favorite restaurant, I was notified that my favorite dish (grilled salmon with asparagus) they have replaced the asparagus with the Broccolili

    Mardi Gras cheesecake.
    Debbie K.

    I was surprised how packed this place was for a mid Sunday afternoon. Thankfully we were seated immediately and had a cozy table for 2. We started with fried calamari (my favorite) and it was paired with fried asparagus. Both were amazing. We both had salmon dishes that were cooked to perfection. We ended with the Mardi Gras cheese cake just because. It was awesome.

    Decided to try Pappas's Seafood for the first time for an early Valentine's Day dinner and it was spectacular! The place was super busy but luckily made reservations so we were seated in a few minutes. Service was prompt and very friendly and on par with other Pappas spots we've tried. We tried the famous crab cake which was huge and mostly lump crab meat with minimal breading and calamari app which was tender and seasoned well and served with a garlic aioli. For our entree we split the rainbow trout, crab, and shrimp entree which was more than enough for two people and the fish was super tender and skin was super crispy. For dessert we had their crembrule which is one of the best I've had served with berries and whipped cream. Overall one of these best dining experiences I've had at a restaurant in Webster and would easily recommend for a date night or fancy dinner.

    American Red Snapper & Jumbo Crab

    We had a lovely dinner and really enjoyed our entrees! Both were very fresh and delicious! Our server was attentive, and kept our water glasses full. The banana pudding was a decadent choice to end our meal.

    Went around noon and our party of 2 was seated right away. What I like about this location is that if there's ever too long of a wait, Pappas Delta Blues Smokehouse is right next door. Though it's not seafood, it's just as good. My friend and I came hungry and everything on the menu looked good! It was a hard decision but we both decided on the fried oysters with a baked potato. The prices are what you would pay at Pappadeaux's and if I were to close my eyes, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference in taste. Yes, we passed several Pappadeaux's on the way here but sometimes, you just want to take a road trip. Our server was Dylan and he was friendly and attentive to our needs. We never had to ask for our drinks to be refilled because he was on top of it! It only took about 20 minutes for our food to come out. As we sat, we watched many diners come in and as we left, there were many waiting to be seated. To me, this is a sign that the food and/or service is good. There wasn't anything outstanding that would make me want to return because again, it's pretty much like Pappadeaux's. Our intentions were to go the Delta Smokehouse next door but changed our tastebuds for seafood at the last minute. Overall, Pappas Seafood has tasty food.

    Shrimp Brochette w/Jambalaya
    Richard M.

    KEVIN!! Our waiter, nice guy and we all shared some laughs and some smiles. Besides the service my family and I tried the delicious Catfish with Shrimp Brochette. The shrimp, served on a bed of white rice topped off with their house made Jambalaya. It was slap your mama good. Little bit of spicy but intelligent flavors. Shrimp was firm and bacon was crisp. I actually drank the ramekin of butter, jk. The exclaimed, Kevin comes from Home Alone. I'm silly...nevertheless. If you haven't indulged in the dining experience at this well established restaurant, I suggest you add it to the list.

And listen, I'm basically a certified alcoholic (just kidding... allegedly), so trust me when I say I know a good drink when I taste one. I've sampled enough lovely liquors in my day to know what's good and what's just overpriced sadness in a glass. Bella is COMMITTED to her craft. She literally told me she studies cocktail recipes day and night. Like... how cute is that? Meanwhile I can barely commit to folding my laundry. Then she proceeds to make me the SMOOTHEST, yummiest espresso martini my tastebuds have ever had the privilege of experiencing. One sip and I was astonished, emotional, slightly turned on, all of the above. This woman has the shake hands of a goddess. I think I fell in love a little bit. Also, shoutout to the super friendly man in the Hawaiian shirt and Bob Ross-style beret. He brought immaculate vibes to the whole place and made the experience even better (for the most part). Anyways, the drinks at this place are phenomenal. 1000% give this place a try. And if you get Bella as your bartender, congratulations- you ARE one of God's favorites.

Getting to this area from Pearland is much easier than heading into Houston so I was more than happy to come here. I've been here a couple of times and the most recent visit brought me and a party bus full of friends here on a Saturday night. The place gets busy but parking hasn't been an issue on any of my visits. It's a narrow bar that may seem tight, but it keeps going towards the back with more seating as well as a spacious patio. Customer service is always great and the bartenders know their stuff here. They have a pretty extensive drink menu here and there is something for everyone's preferences. They have a long list of cocktails and they can make you anything you want as well. The staff are experts here. They also have an impressive bourbon collections with about 200 kinds to choose from. Along with their cocktails, they have a long list of martinis. I love a good martini and here they have so many options. You can't go wrong with my favorite espresso martini, but the one that wowed me here was the Cucumber Patch. Cucumber flavor profile is not typically something I seek out, but I was in the mood for something refreshing and this was suggested to me. Get it and thank me later. As far as food goes, they have a separate BBQ business on site that sells some food. Don't sleep on the Bay Area if you are looking for a nice cocktail. This place will quickly be one of your favorites. I will surely be back.

But don't be shy if you can't, they were welcome to everyone going up for a song. As far as drinks go, I had the Alimony. I was sold on it because it's gin, guava juice and elderflower liquor. Balanced, not too sweet, and had a little bit of sparkling effervescence. Pair that with a shot or a beer, and we were having a great time catching up with old friends. I don't remember our bartender's name, but she gave us great service. Overall 10/10 recommend the Davenport Lounge Clear Lake if you're looking for where the locals go, trust me they know best.

I really hate when places do this. Two thumbs down for the parking set-up. Luckily, once I made my way inside, things got better. McIntyre's is a huge bar. They have a spacious patio but we sat inside. There are plenty of TVs which make it a great spot to watch sports. And they even have a mini food court! I didn't eat but I noticed that one of the two spots serves Mexican fare. My buddy had some loaded fries with al pastor that looked incredible. He said it was good. I stuck with some beers. You'll find your usual assortments of cocktails, beer, and wine here. It's a full bar. Another pet peeve of mine? Cops are the door. It just kind of kills the vibe a little bit when there's a police officer staring at people. Not that anyone was up to no good but it's kind of like drinking while your grandma is watching. Just a little awkward. McIntyre's is comparable to Little Woodrows in the area. They're both huge sports bars with spacious patios. With that being said, I think Little Woodrows offers the better overall experience.

I'm all about tropical vibes so we made our way over for a nightcap. Located in a shopping center, parking won't be a problem. We were there pretty late on a Thursday night.

What's cool about The Great Kanakas Atomic Tiki Bar, outside of their excellent name, is that they're indoors but the bar makes you feel like you're actually outside. I liked the concept. Relaxed with the vibes you would expect at a tiki bar. Service (4.5/5): We sat at the bar and our bartender was attentive and friendly. She even recommended an off-the-menu drink that other folks like which was a nice touch. Food (N/A): I was on a liquid diet so I'm not even sure if they have food. Drinks (4/5): When you're at a tiki bar, you're looking for a creative mix of flavors with a nice presentation. I went with a cocktail with such a cool name that I couldn't say no. You'll know it when you see the menu. It's a long name, sounds very Hawaiian, and you'll have difficulty pronouncing it. You'll get a kick out of it. While the drink were solid, I've seen more elaborate tiki drinks elsewhere. I'm talking the type where fire is evolved or fancy garnishes. Overall: Clear Lake surprisingly has quite a few cool bars.
