The Grove - New American restaurant in Houston - 1611 Lamar St, USA

Came here to eat for dinner. Found the staff to be really awesome! Cesile was outstanding! Super attentive and made great recommendations! We started with the Bread and Berrata, the blue crab fritters, and the beet salad! All were tasty and delicious! The real treat though was the filet mignon! Holy smokes! We were not expecting that. Compliments to the chef. It was cooked to perfection and the flavor was absolutely amazing. My wife said it is the best steak she’s ever had. We finished the meal with espresso and the berries and cream. Perfection! We will be back!

Our experience was excellent, we had a nice window seat and the restaurant was open and airy. We ordered the summer Burratta with focaccia bread and it was very refreshing. Very enjoyable with an amazing vinaigrette dressing. The steak was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. We loved the fact that the oysters were large and full of flavor. Stir fry shrimp had the perfect level of spice it doesn’t come too spicy but you can always add more. The restaurant was kind enough to send us a slice of cake for our anniversary as well. I also have nothing but good things to say about our waiter, Rick. Thanks for your suggestions and taking the time to explain pairings with us.

Appetizer was the bread and blue crab corn fritters. The fritters were tasty. Nice outside. Excellent chunks of crab. I liked the sauce for them as well. The kale salad and red fish was great. The fish was cooked perfectly. The fried potatoes salad was a surprise hit. I’ve never seen that item on a menu. My friend got the wedge salad. She loveddd it. Service was amazing as well. Definitely want to go back!

I don’t usually write reviews, but I had the BEST experience last night while dinning at The Grove. The food was amazing, the Crab Fritters are to die for! What really made our experience special was the service, we were so pleased with Skyler! He was very knowledgeable about the menu, and really made our night special, he is the perfect example of what impeccable service is. We will definitely be back!

Fantastic food, great atmosphere, and amazing service! Our waiter Rick P. went above and beyond his duties! An all-around wonderful experience.

To be honest, all the time I've gone to see events at the Toyota Center I haven't had the chance to stop by The Grove. So first time is in order. Absolutely a pleasant place to sit down and have drinks and meals. 5 stars all over. We tried 5 different drinks and was served with a few appetizers. All very good... Doug was taking care of us and Daniel was giving us the tour of the facility. Both are outstanding guys.

One of my favorite restaurants in houston. Everything is delicious!!! The reddish and sweet potato tacos are my fave.

We were a large group but ended up ordering for the table bread and butter, beet hummus, chargrilled wings, ahi tuna augachile, and blue crab corn fritters. The bread and butter was my favorite appetizer. The salt on the fresh bread went perfectly with the seasonings in the butter. Second favorite was the blue crab fritters. Everybody enjoyed all the other dishes as well. I got to enjoy the sunset in the park drink which was good. I ordered the fagilatelle al ragu and mostly everybody else at the table ordered the salmon filet as an entrée. The ragu tasted very good to be and the beef short rib was tender. Mostly everybody enjoyed the salmon and said it was the best they've had. The others said it was in their top salmon. The salmon was a pretty decent size too. I was surprised. The only dish people weren't a fan of was the grits, they said it was very bland. The atmosphere was pretty cool but the place is pretty pricy.
