Live Oak Lounge & Grill

This was a nice place to have a cocktail, watch a game and listen to music. This night was maybe 25-30yr old crowd so they played all the latest hip hop, reggae, and r&b music. There was no arguing, fighting, or drama. Drinks were strong and expensive.

Grits were cold. Sent back the first time and then she came out with another plate but the grits were not hot it was warm ????‍♀️. Fish was hot as hell and good. No silverware. We had to wait until they finish washing them.

Went for a birthday party with reservations. A little crowded but not necessarily a bad thing. Music is decent, live and definitely loud. Hookah is cool but finding the individual to refill it is crazy annoying. Prices are semi high but expected in a place that's a little classier than others in Houston. Overall, not a bad place to have fun with the homies but especially nice for girls night out.

It was okay. The atmosphere was the best. The food was okay. The best part was the music and being able to watch football. They add gratuity and charge $3 to swipe your card. So for my hubs and I to share a carafe and eat a meal was $52 bucks. We will go back however it won't be to eat food. Music and atmosphere was great though!

So I wanted to try this spot out for brunch because its always being advertised. I thought that I was going to walk into a big setting, but to my surprised it was small. I got a chance to really look at the place and I kept trying to figure out how in the world do they turn this place into a "club" environment. It's on the small side, and the VIP area (which I'm sure costs $500+) is not that big nor appealing.... nevertheless... for brunch I had the shrimp and grits and it was very delicious. The grits had the right amount of season on it and the shrimp was very flavorful. I tried three different mimosas; the pineapple, cranberry, and orange. My least favorite was the cranberry, and my favorite one was the pineapple. I also had a Bellini which was $5.00; it was a frozen drink; it was good as well but I'm good on getting one again. I thought during the brunch hours there would be an actual DJ there but all they did was play music. I was told the DJ comes later on. The music selection wasn't bad but I'm use to going to places where the DJ is there from the time brunch starts until later that night.

Overall, I would visit this place again, but I still prefer other places for my personal brunch selection.
