"The Acadian and Cajun restaurant Prey in the Galleria area is the sort of cool and romantic place that inspires you to sit on the same side of the booth as your date. During the day there’s plenty of natural light, but at night the lamps give off just enough light for you to see your date and the spicy seafood gumbo when it hits your table. So canoodle over creamy crawfish fondue and watch the sunset through the floor-to-ceiling windows. On weekends you can stay late for “Prey After Dark,'' where you can listen to live jazz and have a nightcap." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene

Came here for my sister’s birthday celebration in the evening, beautiful vibe and friendly staff. Unfortunately the food wasn’t fantastic, if you were super hungry and wanted to satisfy a craving, I’m not sure that would be met, but I guess that’s what comes with night food. I really enjoyed the drink. The Dj was lit! that also made the evening worth it. Maybe I’ll visit again during the day to see how the food is. Overall a nice spot to enjoy the night!

We went here to celebrate my son’s birthday. The atmosphere takes you to a private restaurant on a distant island. On Thursdays they have hookahs. The food was sooooo flavorful that I was mad I couldn’t eat more. The service by Noah made us feel like we were his only table. Our drinks just solidified that we were DEFINITELY receiving services associated with a private island. The music set the vibe and the DJ continued it. Normally, my son offers me to taste his food. This was the FIRST time I had to ask to taste his food. I will be making the drive from Dallas again to visit this oasis. Be sure to make it here before I go back and tell them LeAnn sent you. :)

Prey was good. Parking was not bad. They are doing construction around the area, but we were able to find it resturant. It was a group of us 5 in total. I got the suya lamb with eggs. A friend of mine got the surf and turf, which was oxtails and shrimp. It was good and they really enjoyed it. I would go back again.

The place is such a great place, the food is amazing. My only issue was that most of the drinks I was asking for from the beer to the Prosecco I wanted they didn’t have it and only their in-house Prosecco which was not bad but not my favorite. The music is great, the view from outside is amazing (see pictures for reference). I would have loved it if they have standing cooling fans outside especially in this weather. I would really appreciate if they could also wash their drinking glasses as well.

Went here at Prey for Brunch and had Oxtail & Grits w/Pound Cake French Toast and eggs on side! The Food was so good! The Pound Cake French Toast was Moist and one of the few places where the music isn't too loud! I thoroughly enjoyed myself and glancing at the dinner menu....I'll definitely be back!

This in NOT an upscale restaurant by far!!!!!!! Im not sure why they have a dress code the place reminds you of a restaurant that should be in the hood. The seating area is small to say the least. When we arrived and went to the restroom, the water was off, I wonder how did the staff was their hands. We had to tell them to turn the water on ( that was weird), the toilet top that covers the internal part of the toilet was on the floor. Once you are seated you are looking directly in the kitchen where they prepare the food. It was not set up like thats the way it was intended, it was more like an afterthought. There should have been a curtain or some type of divider. Im glad no one sneezed, it would have ended up in the kitchen. The waiter took our order then 10 minutes later came back to the table to get it again then finally put it in the computer. He must have been hungry because he made himself some wings and sat at the bar and ate them. That was not professional. They have a brunch menu with maybe 6 entrees with no sides during brunch. The drinks were small but the price was not. The food was lacking especially for the price. I would suggest the owner travel to Dallas and visit Yard Birds and see how an upscale restaurant should operate. I read the reviews before going and all I have to say is they must like creating fake accounts to leave reviews or they have friends that are trying to help them out by leaving reviews. They over promise and under deliver. We have to do better.

I came here for brunch with my daughter on a Sunday about 12:30pm. Didn’t need to make a reservation on OpenTable (for $10) but I did. This IS Houston. 🙄 Anywho, atmosphere was fine, vibe is good… It’s small and quaint. Looking at the menu, I was immediately taken aback by the prices. Smh. It did take a minute for our server to approach and bring us the drinks we ordered. From what I can tell, it was only 2 servers. Idk HOW 3 separate tables arrived AFTER us got their food BEFORE us but I def clocked it! It took approximately 30 minutes to get our food. I guess their Chef handcrafts every plate, and then brings the food to the table. That’s great, but not when you have a restaurant full of hungry people. I understand the concept but the execution is horrendous! I spent $90 for TWO people. Why is a lemonade $8? Look at the receipt!!! The food was decent but not for the price OR portions received. I won’t be back!
