"Like a lot of other steakhouses in town, Guard & Grace is massive, the service is vigilant, and the litany of meat might require a small personal loan to afford. But this glitzy restaurant also offers something rare for Houstonians: a Downtown high-rise backdrop for oak-grilled wagyu and a supporting cast of charred brussels sprouts and creamy mac and cheese. If you ever need to eat at an impressive restaurant for an impressive reason—like a special anniversary or setting up your bluetooth surround sound system all by yourself—do it at Guard & Grace for an extra touch of class." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas, julie takahashi
