Pappas Bros. Steakhouse

Not my first time at Pappas, and definitely not my last. My family and I come here often for the great service, the nice yet welcoming ambiance, and the great food. We always leave way too full. This time I got the filet duo as my entree. For sides we all split salads to start, then got the Brussels sprouts and au gratin potatoes. Great place!

Beautiful venue and decor, live pianist, great bar set up, and wonderful staffGreat for large groups or an intimate date. Food and drinks were wonderful from the New York strip steak to the creme brulee.

I've always gone to the galleria location but I decided to try the downtown location with my girl and I am glad we did. Derrick was our waiter and he is top notch! I am glad we gave this location a try. Food: what do you expect from pappas steakhouse other than great food!? The bone in ribeye was cooked to perfection. The off the menu Brussels sprouts are so dam good. The au gratin potatoes will have you real lactose intolerant but got dam fam they are so dam good ya heard me! The mouse tart dessert was top notch as well. Pappas steakhouse had been a go to spot for us for many years and will continue to be one of our favorites. The customer was great! Derrick is doing an amazing job here. Great job Derrick! Will definitely ask for him next time.

New Years Eve dinner was fantastic! Usually set menus are lacking, not tonight....fabulous menuBeautiful presentation and simply delicious From appetizer to dessert Service was excellent The restaurant was just beautiful with tons of balloons and beadsWhat a fun nightExceeded our expectations!

Had a weekday early dinner at the bar here...and the steak was very ver good!They have a few bar specials...I ordered the 6 oz fillet and for an up charge subbed the mash potato for the Au gratin.The steak was excellent...perfect temp and well seasoned...really very delicious. I found the au gratin potato I to be a touch too salty...but still good.The meal also came with some warm bread and butter.Overall a great steak meal and a good price.

This was my first pick for the 2023 Houston restaurant week. My visit didn't start with the best impression. The valet wait was extremely long. Not sure if they are employed by Pappas or if they are a independent company. I arrived 10 mins before my reservation and didn't get inside till 10 mins after my reservation time. Once I was able to make it inside, I was politely greeted at the door. The inside has very dimmed lighting throughout the restaurant. This gives romantic date night vibes. I was quickly taken to my table where my dinner partner for the evening was already seated and attacking the bread. Our waiter came and gave us the evening dinner specials in detail. All sounded amazing. He gave us a few minutes to make a decision and came back to get our drink order. Another server delivered our drinks. There was also another server that was making rounds often that was just refilling water glasses. There was also a manger that would make rounds to all the tables kindly asking how the meal and visit was going. The level of attention to detail was very impressive. Especially the person that would collect our plates after each course would clean off the table of any crumbs. Now my meal consisted of three courses. My first course was the turtle gumbo that was just good. I'm my opinion it could have used some more seasoning and also been a little thicker. It seemed a little too watery. The second course was a 10 ounce tri-age New York strip that was paired with green beans and mashed potatoes. I ordered my steak medium rare and it was cooked perfectly! I really appreciate the server that brought our plates asked us to cut into it to our steaks to insure it was our liking. The seasoning and crust on the steak was perfect from first bite to last. The mashed potatoes were very creamy. However the green beans seemed to lack flavor compared to the rest of the plate. The third course was desert and I picked the key lime pie. My first impression as it was served was "this is way bigger than I thought" followed by "that's what she said" lol. The taste was everything you want from a key lime pie. Just the right amount of sweetness and tart. The creamy texture and soils crust was presented just right. Overall it was a great experience. Definitely somewhere I would plan to come back to.

It was my last night in Houston so my good girlfriend and I decided we wanted to have a nice dinner. Pappas Bros Steakhouse came highly recommended. The dress code is classy and the atmosphere is intimate. Our server was very informative and engaging throughout our dining experience. We had the 16oz rib eye, mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts. Everything came hot and delicious! The servings are huge so we were able to share our meal and still take home left overs. Great choice!

Went with some business partners last week. Pappas restaurants are always run well. Service was amazing and as it should be when you're spending lots of money on dinner. My customer was not from Texas and said this was one of the best if not best steak houses he has been to. Drinks amazing, the sommelier made some great recommendations (his suit was off the charts by the way) and service was 11 out of 10. I usually go to the location on Westhimer but the downtown location is on the same level.

Our first try at Pappas. There were no disappointments associated with this experience.Food was very good and not a single thing not just perfect about it.Dessert was so good I would go there just for those.One of the best drink menus for wine and hard to find bourbons!

The food was outstanding. The staff were fantastic. We enjoyed the oysters, salads, and filets. We also ordered the Brussels sprouts. All exceptional. A bit pricey but worth the splurge.
