Best crab cake anyplace, lots of crab, minimal breading
V&A is open every night for dinner, Chef Carlos has the best crab cake I've ever had in my life, his quail appetizer is incredible, and they serve great burgers at lunch on Fridays (or always in bar).
There's a reason VA was voted Best Of Houston steakhouse - Chef Carlos knows food. From the best crab cake in town to amazing steaks, to great sides & drinks. Ambience is top notch. Sit @ chefs bar.
Skip the crabcake at lunch...Good service...Staff is extremely friendly...
Try the crab cakes.... YUM!
It’s was amazing!! The crab cake was very good!
The Crab Cake Quattro and Duck Quesadillas were superb :) Great atmosphere! Book the whole second floor for your private party!
The crab cakes are excellent!!
Excellent choice for a good Saturday night meal. The crab cakes are rich in flavor. The duck mac-four cheese is a must to try.
The lobster bisque is wonderful & the lump crab cakes are the best outside of Maryland...but a little small.
Everything here—salads, sides, and desserts—is served big, so plan to share.
Best crab cakes ever!!
The house martini is excellent. Just get it with the house gin.
Live jazz is performed during Sunday brunch from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This is a beautiful, historically landmarked hotel. The interior was clearly redone from top to bottom a few years ago and it looks gorgeous. I had a great stay, highly recommended.
Awesome stay. Very accommodating. No paranormal experience this trip, maybe next time. Perfect place for a getaway. Great complimentary little breakfast.
Beautiful hotel, valet parking is a little expensive at $30 but it's still worth going for. Buffet breakfast is excellent, especially the biscuits
The Guacamole Tacos and Chocolate Flan with caramel and walnuts are to die for. The coffee has a hint of cinnamon
Happy Hour: Monday-Friday 4:30pm-7pm
How can you get food outside?? Inside bartender is a jerk!!
Blackened mahi with crawfish and crab with poblano sauce
Go to III forks and ask to sit in the 'Lounge'- there is a more casual atmosphere there and the food is obviously just as amazing - we always order the 12oz steak, it's only $6 more than the 8oz
Nice place but the quacker is lacking. Would come again
Great visit. Nice breakfast. But downtown Houston pretty deserted on Sat night with no ball game going on.
The newly renovated hotel opened in 2002 as the Sam Houston, but the name was too Texan for national promotion, so it became the Alden in 2005.
Free drop off service in downtown Houston!
Very good restaurant. I recommend you the 'Zarzuela de mariscos' and then the 'crema catalana' (crème brûlée that doesn't appear in their official menu) . Excellent attention from Germán, besides.
Andalucia has a stage set up for flamenco music and dancing on Thursdays for the total southern Spain sensory immersion.
This place is AMAZING seriously
The bfast buffet downstairs is very good. Excellent service. Excellent food. NO TURKEY or soy products tho. Just PORK. There is a chicken option w the omelets.
take the ekevator to top and look down! ride the cool glaass elevators!!
When it opened in '72, the Hyatt was a futuristic marvel, with a soaring 30-story atrium & glassed-in elevators. It was so space-age looking that it was featured in the '76 sci-fi movie Logan's Run.
Delicious cioppino and blackened redfish tostados.
Kobe burger is excellent
We described the food as "fulfilling, but not satisfying." Burger was cooked too hot (asked for rare but got medium). Wife got pancakes that tasted like cornbread (good, but weird). Mimosas were meh
Just had th cheesesteak on a hoagie.... Pretty darn good! Just ask for steak sauce.
The 7-acre complex houses 5 themed aquaria, including a Louisiana swamp, the Amazon River, and a shipwreck. Features include an acrylic train tunnel running through the massive shark tank.
500,000 gallons of underwater tanks w/200+ species of marine life, a temple w/white tigers & a train that takes you into a tunnel w/live sharks swimming overhead...And that’s just for starters.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
