Restaurants near The Strand Historic District

We really enjoyed this place with friends. The food was very good and the service was outstanding. We appreciate that Paco is always present in his restaurants. This was our first time here but we have been to Vargas a few times. We will return to Rudy and Paco again. Their crab bisque was wonderful.

Nice atmosphere with a table that appeared to be in a former vault. Service was friendly and helpful. Veal Picata and lasagne were delicious. Would definitely return.

We started my birthday dinner with our fabulous server Sara bringing us bacon wrapped shrimp and empanadas from the happy hour menu and tuna nachos from the regular menu for all 5 of us to share. All the food was DELICIOUS!! We then moved to dinner and we had scallops, the filet, tuna tacos and a crab cake...all I can say is WOW!! Everyone loved their meal!! Scallops and steak perfectly cooked and seasoned. Then we finished with crème brûlée for my birthday treat!! Such a fun evening and lastly the cocktails/drinks were also amazing! Thank you Hearsay for making my birthday extra special!!

Started with a disappointment that the lunch menu looked at on the restaurant website was not available due to it being a "holiday" (Dec 27th) Menu items are a little pricier on the dinner menu. Food was very good and our outside table offered a scenic view.

December 25, 2024: Merry Christmas! We had the best Clam Chowder ever and delicious Fish and Chips with four large pieces of crispy battered fresh fish on a pile of French Fries. (We split that and glad we did!) Fast efficient service with a well-trained waitress. We had a harrowing drive through Houston and thought the day was ruined. Eating here (with reservations!) redeemed the day and turned around a bad situation. Remember, three or more mega ships depart from here so make reservations as far in advance as you can. We got there at 5PM and a few tables were empty. By the time we left, an hour later, there was a long list waiting for a table.
