Restauranteur Shawn Virene put the POP into Houston with his wildly successful a’Bouzy. This champagne-fueled spot located in the tony River Oaks neighborhood of town attracts a stylish crowd all day. The bar is always bustling and the patio echoes with the cry – “a Bouzy!” every time a bottle is sabered tableside. In fact, most tables will have multiple wine buckets close by, keeping the bubbly cool. The fresh, ripe American menu features seasonal seafood, salads, small-shareable plates, large raw bar and prime meats. The wine list curated by Virene, is both the best-priced on bubbly and wines in the city. The interiors have a sophisticated rustic vibe with exposed brick, reclaimed woods and a color palate of creams and blues. The effervescent appeal of bubbles is reflected in a light installation that mimics bubbles floating overhead. The spacious patio is a magnet for the stylish clientele that enjoy the year-round garden. The best thing is Champagne and wine is at or below retail

    We had dinner for three in their private dining room - great ambiance, lower noise level. Two dozen east coast oysters were delightful, served ice cold, opened to perfection, with delicious condiments - as always at State of Grace. Being regulars at SOG, we ordered our usual - Caesar salad, blackened redfish, Cacio et pepe pasta, and topped it off with their chocolate pecan ball. All were delightful, which, along with the normal friendly, efficient serving staff and attentive management team, keep us coming back again and again. Keep up the great work SOG team!

    A neighborhood gem. My 2nd, my husband's 1st visit. It was lunch on a Tuesday. It was busy. Our waiter, Megan, was very nice and attentive. She made great recommendations. The devil eggs and crab dip appetizers were both on point. My husband had spaghetti. He loved it! I had the lobster roll. It was ok. The serving size was good, but it could use a bit more flavor, so I added some of the crab dip to it. Michael, the GM, was nice as well. Love the weekday happy hour. I'll certainly be back to experience more menu items.

    Took our friends to dinner to celebrate their recent wedding and our wedding anniversary. Had the chef’s tasting with wine pairings. Everything was exceptional. The food was excellent and the wine pairings were perfect. The service was fantastic as well. Overall, a wonderful experience. We will definitely return. Unlike some of the Michelin starred restaurants we have visited in Europe, this is a more relaxed experience which we appreciated.

    When my husband and I travel, we seek out an Eddie V’s due to the consistency in food, atmosphere, and service. This location was everything we expected and more! Our waiter, Torron, was very helpful and friendly. The manager made us feel important by coming to our table to visit and make sure we were taken care of.
