Restaurants near Dezavalla Park

Great restaurant and steakhouse. Waited only 15 minutes to be seated after reservation time on Valentine's day. No waiting area or seating for customers. Valet was very congested. It was a great surprise that the valet cost was not as expensive as we expected which was good. Great surf and turf special last night. The food was excellent. No recognition that it was our anniversary and I was disappointed. Open table asked the occasion for the reservation and clearly stated anniversary. I think this was because it was intertwined with Valentine's day. Other than that, everything was great as far as the food.

This restaurant is on Houston Chronicles top 20 for a reason, best Thai food in town! Be warned, the mild is hot!

Pappas Bros. Steakhouse is nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the stage for what would become one of the most memorable nights of our lives. The service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making our evening special. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. The steaks were perfectly cooked and rich with flavor. Every dish, from the appetizers to the decadent desserts, showcased top-tier ingredients and masterful preparation. What truly sets Pappas Bros. apart, though, is the experience they create. This was the place where I proposed, and the staff went above and beyond to make the moment unforgettable. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellence made an already special night even more magical. If you’re looking for the perfect place to celebrate a milestone, impress someone special, or simply enjoy an outstanding meal, Pappas Bros. is the place to be. I can’t recommend it highly enough!

 I was traveling solo on business in Houston and made a reservation for one via Open Table. When I arrived there were seats available at the bar so I took one instead of sitting at a table in the main dining room. The service was just slightly slow initially (getting my order placed), but only because there was only one bartender. After that the service was exemplary. I started with a beet hummus and burrata salad, which was was an exquisite blend of wonderful flavors. I followed with the Peruvian ceviche, which, like any ceviche I have ever had at a Richard Sandoval venue, was outstanding. Not quite as good as the ceviche at Costa Verde in Lima, but pretty close. My seat mate at the bar offered me a taste of his ribeye steak, which was a perfect medium rare and maybe the most flavorful ribeye I have ever tasted anywhere, with the possible exception of Bones in Atlanta or a restaurant called The Refinery in Andover NH. I will definitely visit Toro Toro again soon!

I took my significant other here for brunch on a Saturday morning. It was absolutely beautiful, amazing, and tasty! I would recommend this place to anyone.
