Joyce's Seafood & Steaks

We found a hidden treasure...ssssh it's so good.A party of four and everyone had some different.I stuck with the Houston Resturant Week Menu.Everyone enjoyed the meal, music, service, very nice and clean Resturant. We stayed for a couple hours talking and enjoying each other and the food. The food was so good we all ordered food to go.They have a 3 times Award Winning Hot White Chocolate Bread Pudding. A must try!!!Ask for Ms. Carla, very nice, and the staff made sure we was attended to. Ms. Carla gave us the history on the Resturant. You need to get by this Resturant. They have a book for the menu, so you will find something on the list. I told them we will be back with a larger group.

Always fresh and delicious seafood. They make a good Martini too! Great old school seafood house interior!

My husband and I came to Joyce's for HRW. I ordered the Fish & Shrimp gumbo as a starter, Shrimp, Sausage, and Crawfish pasta for the main course, and a key lime pie. The gumbo was meh. The liquid was really thin, lacked flavor and was kinda bitter? I was disappointed with it. The pasta wasn't anything special. It tasted like something I could've made at home. The key lime pie was on the tart side and had a very thick crust. My dinner was as a whole was disappointing. My husband got a blue cheese blueberry salad, shrimp and lobster enchiladas, and bread pudding. His dinner also wasn't anything special. The enchiladas were dry on the inside. Overall, for $39/each I'd say HRW at Joyce's was a flop. We won't be going back. The service was attentive and friendly, though.

It is a nice seafood restaurant. The staffs are friendly and food is delicious. It is not too busy during lunch time and price is fair.

Talk about a hole in the wall/diamond in the rough! We've lived in Houston for 20+ years and have always heard of Joyce's, this was our first time to visit. The decor is very retro (as in likely has never ever been updated since the 80s), but don't let it fool you - the food is amazing and the service was excellent. Highly recommend for a casual, quiet evening of quality seafood. Probably not for you families, but if you're looking for a nice date night or a place to eat at the bar, give Joyce's a try!

This hidden gem is apparently a favorite among locals. I just stumbled upon it because I had an appointment in the area. I couldn't have been happier with my lunch. It was fantastic.

Restaurant is located on a strip mall with plenty of parking. Interior is beautifully decorated in sea theme. Service was good. Staff were knowledgeable about the menu, and they were patient. All the food came out hot. I had the calamari, a cup of crab bisque, and pecan crusted mahi mahi. The calamari was ok. The marinara sauce didn't have much taste to it. The calamari could have been coated better. The crab bisque was a darker color, and the soup was light. It could have a deeper flavor. The pecan crusted mahi-mahi was bland. The Chardonnay reduction sauce was mild, thus not adding much flavor to the fish. In addition, the fish was also not very fresh. Overall it was an ok experience at the restaurant.

Very loud and the menu is tired old style preparations still remember it in the good old when the crab cake was jumbo lump.

Great seafood and good value. Bread pudding is on another level! We will be back soon! Nice servers!

I am here to update and UPGRADE my earlier rating to 5 stars. Our 5 pm Saturday dining group have been back to Joyce's a few more times. I should say that our group always gets to maximum size when we decide to go to Joyce's. We know from experience that a large group can be a challenge especially since nothing is set ahead of time, we have couples and singles and all pay their separate tabs. The service personnel pitch in and handle it at Joyce's - this is an issue at some of our other selected locations. I love the gumbo and the fresh halibut a couple weeks ago was as good as I have ever had including in Alaska right off the boat. There are several other menu options that get great reviews among our group. Sorry I haven't tried the steak but I would not hesitate to do so. We usually get a couple bottles of wine among some of the group so I can't comment on bar drinks but we see a lot of locals there so I'm pretty sure the bar does a good job. The bread pudding is very good and my wife and I split one. Hope to see you at Joyce's soon!
