Cozy EaDo bistro serving inventive New American-European dishes, famous for buttery Nancy Cakes, juicy English muffin burgers, and a stellar natural wine list.
"Even at the coziest table at Nancy’s Hustle, the staff will keep dinner running smoothly so that you, your date, and your Nancy cakes have as much elbow room as possible. And the food is as impressive as the service. This charming EaDo joint serves creative, bistro-y dishes like lamb tartare on a crisp sesame flatbread, pasta you can share, or a juicy cheeseburger served on an english muffin. As cool and lighthearted as Nancy’s Hustle is, an available table is as likely as new Beyoncé visuals, so make a reservation unless you want to try your luck at the bar (which is also a pretty dreamy spot for a date night). If you walk in during peak dinner hours, space at Nancy’s Hustle will be pretty limited. Either commit to going for a sexy late-night dinner with someone who makes your heart sing, or try your luck at the bar or patio when they first open." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene, julie takahashi

"This sleek destination in EaDo dishes up New American and European cuisine with a butter-loving flair that any Texan can appreciate. For a romantic indulgence, share a plate of Nancy Cakes, the restaurant’s most luxurious dish, which is topped with smoked trout roe, chives, and — you guessed it — butter. If it’s your first time, Nancy’s iconic cheeseburger, served on an English muffin, is another must. The intimate neighborhood spot encourages reservations, but couples can also settle in at the bar to soak in its vibrant atmosphere and enjoy the stellar service." - Brianna Griff, Brittany Britto Garley
"Though this East Downtown gem is known to rotate its menu items, its cheeseburger is a mainstay. Nancy’s brings breakfast into the mix, serving the double cheeseburger on a brioche English muffin, then topping it with American cheese, pickles, and red onion for a slight twist that still feels classic and easy to eat. Make it an extra happy meal with hand-cut fries served with aioli and a cider or a glass of wine from its extensive drinks list." - Brittany Britto Garley
"A restaurant in Houston recognized with a Bib Gourmand in the inaugural Texas Michelin Guide." - Brittany Britto Garley
