Restaurants near La Colombe d'Or

My 94 year old mother loved our dinner out. We try to take her out whenever she’s feeling up to it. She loves oysters and fully enjoyed trying the variety at Clark’s. Murder Points were her favorite. Loved the grits and French fries too!

Overall, the food was good. My guest and I did expect more of a Mediterranean menu. We thought the menu was lacking. I ordered the Denver cut and thought it would have a side with it. My mistake was that it did not, and it was too late to order a side once I received the steak. The steak was tender and seasoned well. The bread as an appetizer was excellent.

This is one of Houston’s best restaurants. Very good steak and arguably even better pastas. The Rigatoni in Vodka sauce is better than Carbone’s and their Lobster fra diavolo is stunningly good. Their Italian favorites like Veal Parm and Veal Milanese are also remarkable. The atmosphere and live piano music is the frosting on the cake. It’s a updated version Gene and Georgetti (Chicago).

Our dinner at Drake’s was just what we needed for a date night and a special time together for my boyfriends birthday. I appreciate the grace as we were running late and the team was accommodating and kind, even though we were behind schedule and closing was at 10p. Thank you for the hospitality. A little bit of kindness goes very long way.

Absolutely outstanding from start to finish. The best sushi in town.
