The Best Restaurants in the Houston Suburbs Right Now | Eater Houston
"Technically, this soulful restaurant is in Seabrook, but the five-minute drive from Kemah means you shouldn’t miss it if you’re in town. Inspired by chef Aaron Davis’s grandmothers, this laidback, BYOB restaurant in Seabrook has garnered national attention for bringing Creole home cooking to the forefront. Diners can find gumbo loaded with chicken, sausage, and blue crab; fried cheese curds topped with red gravy; and New Orleans-style barbecue shrimp and grits served with toasted French bread. A crowd-pleasing combination of crispy, Cajun-spiced fried chicken atop a diner’s choice of a buttermilk vanilla, pecan praline, or Southern red velvet waffle has become a signature. The daily chalkboard specials are where Davis gets wildly creative — think chargrilled short ribs marinated in Korean barbecue and Caribbean jerk spices and a soul-soothing oxtail plate. The food takes time, but a cold drink can make the wait go by faster." - Brittany Britto Garley
