Lucelle Agustin: For Happy Hour: pork belly, sweet corn, tuna tartare, roka chibi burger!! If you like sweet cocktails, order the lychee-tini (off the menu). For dessert, get the Yuzu Cheesecake (not that sweet).
Eater: From 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m., get a taste by noshing on $8 light bites from Wagyu beef and kimchi dumplings, tuna tartare, hamachi serrano chili roll, and the Roka Chili burger. Read more.
Christy Landes: Crab, sashimi, wagyu

jon nguyen: Try the Pork Jowl - never had a jowl, and it was again perfectly balanced with the pears and the fresh greens
John: Order a variety of dishes and eat family style. Ham and eggs, eggplant, brussel sprouts are a must.
Jewelz Cody: Holy. Fucking. Shit.
Büşra Sertalp: Crab cak sliders and grilled oysters! I can't say more. Cocktails are also amazing
Houston Press: Pappas Seafood is now a mini-empire, but the Lower Shepherd location doesn't feel like part of a chain after three decades in the same location, just outside of Montrose. Read more.
Christine Ha: Only come for the oyster special: $7/dozen for Gulf Coast. Comes with mignonette 👍🏼. Other food is meh. Long waits during oyster season.

Rivendell Nina Rentals: This was by far the best French I've ever eaten. Good food. Quaint spot. Excellent service and the creme brûlée was exquisite
Eater: For great French food in classic iterations, this is a good dining option and a Houston classic. The duck confit, escargot and chocolate dumplings are cheap and very well-executed. [Eater 38 Member]
Kimberley Mead: The boar is amazing.
