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

Brunch on Saturday and Sunday is primarily first come, first served. If you do not see the time you want available online, please call us directly. When owner Johnny Carrabba set out on his next restaurant venture, he knew his vision would include the fond memories he had of his dear grandmother Grace Mandola. Grace, also known to the family as Mama, was a Sicilian woman born to immigrant parents in Louisiana. She had a flair for cooking, hospitality, and deep faith.She was known to make bread from scratch every Saturday for her legendary three-hour Sicilian Sunday lunches; and, her newly established family roots in Louisiana added interesting flavors to her home cooked meals. The entire Mandola family, including her five children and fourteen grandchildren, was regularly greeted in her home with smells of warm bread, well brewed sauces and homemade soups. It was around her table that her family learned the true meaning and value of relationships, friendships and good food.

My daughter and I dined here for thanksgiving dinner and the food was so good . When it was time to pay , the waitress said someone had taken care of our tab and it was such a beautiful gesture especially because her and I spent the day alone . If the person who picked up our tab sees this : thank you so much ❤️

Incredible Cajun and neo-Cajun and Creole food. Best Louisiana cuisine outside of Louisiana. The honey butter cornbread and oysters are a must. Our waiter, Rocco, was outstanding. Valet parking and secured parking with validation is available. Don’t use Buffalo Speedway to enter the garage. Enter from Richmond (eastbound) instead.

Hearsay at Levy Park delivers; excellent food, beautiful atmosphere, superb service (Norman), and a gorgeous park setting. This shouldn’t been a “hidden gem”. It has all of the parts necessary to be fantastic. Wishing them success on building a great following.
