We don't talk about Alvin, TX enough so let me shed some light on this great place. I've had…read moreGordon Street Tavern on my list for awhile for the simple fact that they sell scotch eggs. You just don't see that often and I wanted to try it. The stars aligned and my family and I met up here for a weeknight dinner. Alvin is the true definition of a small town. It is just south of Pearland and life moves a little slower out here. Atleast for time being as it is becoming more developed now. The building itself is old and full of character. Everyone seemed to know each other. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, but service was a tad bit slow at times. My family isn't a big drinking family so we stuck with water and sodas, but they have quite a nice bar program here. They have a really impressive beer selection, a long list of specialty cocktails and lots of wine to choose from. I'm definitely coming back to check that out without the fam. For appetizers, we got an order of the scotch eggs and the Bavarian pretzel sticks. This was my first introduction to scotch eggs and a wonderful one at that. You really can't go wrong with anything wrapped in sausage and deep friend. It was a nice treat and something I will not be sharing next time. The pretzels were also very good. Our waitress suggested some cheese sauce to accompany those. These sticks of goodness were excellent. For my entree, I was stuck on a few items as their menu is pretty extensive. Our waitress said my option for the Pork Milanesa was the way to go, so I did. I've had milanesa at Mexican restaurants, but never in a tavern nor prepared this way. This was hand battered in panko and then topped with a mushroom gravy. It comes with broccoli and mashed potatoes but I substituted the veggie for mac and cheese. This dish was very good and the portions were very generous. Enough for me to have a full second meal minus the sides. The pork was thinly pounded and kept it's crunch even doused in gravy. The gravy was rich and very delicious. My family got a mix of items like the philly cheese steak, flat iron steak salad, tavern salad, and chicken fried steak. For research purposes and for my loyal readers, I tried everything. There wasn't anything that was bad to me. We were full so desserts didn't happen on this trip. Overall, Gordon Street Tavern is a solid spot that I would happily return to if in the area.

I dove directly into my coconut shrimp and forgot to take a photo. I actually finished the plate which is a major rarity for me. I also tried the hush puppies and cilantro lime rice (with COCONUT!)... both of which are the best I've had in this entire area. The hush puppies have the perfect amount of jalapeño in them. For drinks, I had a loaded landshark (always refreshing and lovely) and a frozen house margarita. Yum! The only thing I'd recommend they improve upon is the indoor chair material. Fabric is never a good option, especially in a kid-friendly place. While comfortable, it's not worth the messes that get stuck to them. I had to switch chairs around and settle for the least dirty one. It's not a good look and no one wants to sit atop another person's spill.

He replaced the plate with a fresh plate, but the shrimp on the new plate was also rotten tasting as the first! I did not eat it... Unfortunately this place is over rated and serves poor tasting food, seemingly from a bag. NOT FRESH FOOD.

On their menu, you'll find various sandwiches, salads, steaks, seafood, fried foods and they're open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. If you come for lunch, try their buffet. On a Tuesday when I visited, the buffet offered 3 meats: pot pie, Salisbury steak and chicken fried steak, green beans, fried okra, scalloped grilled potatoes, corn, lima beans, mashed potatoes, yeast rolls and jalapeño corn bread. Also they had a salad bar and a pot containing some pretty watery vegetable soup. My favs were chicken fried steak, Salisbury steak, sliced potatoes and yeast rolls. Price for lunch buffet is 8.95 (for 1 trip), 9.95 (unlimited trips to buffet line). Even though I went up 3 or 4 different times, they only charged me 8.95.

So I made my own, and it was no problem. Beef fajitas(came with sauted peppers and onions- which I didn'tknow about, nice surprise) spinach, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms What I got Pretty similar BUT they added !!cheese! Which is usually a great surprise but not today (and not for any of those lactose intolerant people) also my hashbrowns (another thing I don't usually eat) could have been more crispy.

One of the highlights of the evening was watching fresh pasta being made right in front of us, which is something you don't come across often. We'll definitely be back. This has quickly become one of our new favorite spots, and I highly recommend it.

I had eggs Benedict with crab, wonderful bacon, and home fries, and because I had traveled all the way out to Belleville, Texas. I made it a point to complement it all with a pancake, which was equally wonderful. It's a lovely restaurant and I think I read somewhere that it is old time Texas architecture and I must tell you it really was quite lovely. There was a patio and the weather was wonderful. We chose not to dine there but the next time we're in town. There is no question that we will make it a point to do so. The bartender was very capable, bloody Mary's and mimosas as well as a myriad of other drinks. Very many top shelf, liquors, and a wonderful cup of coffee make for not only a pleasant dining experience, but frankly a wonderful dining experience. If you're ever in Belleville, Texas, I would make it a point to stop by and enjoy really a top level dining experience.

They have a sliver of a lot right off of highway 6, and there's usually a big ass truck parked somewhere along the way making getting through a whole situation. This place has always had a good crowd every time we've come through, so plan accordingly. Staff has always been super nice, and really fast with service. We've had a different person each time, but the excellent service is provided every time. The gumbo is hearty and flavorful. The crawfish queso is solid. Your usual queso with a good amount of mudbugs mixes in. I think I'd like a little more creole flavor in the queso, personally. The grilled platters have been excellent. The scallops are always done perfectly, as are the fillets. The oysters, I'd rather have Rockefeller, or raw. Personal preference. The boudin stuffed salmon was really good. I'd like less oil when cooking the salmon, but the boudin counters the fried fish flesh taste well. The snapper Pontchartrain is quite a meal, very flavorful, and quantity is enough for two meals. The parmesan crusted snapper is fantastic. The etouffee is quite tasty, it has some very interesting flavors mixed in. We've never left a meal here disappointed. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

The Pit Room used to be one of my favorite barbecue spots in Houston, which makes this visit…read moreespecially disappointing. After the three-taco dinner, I honestly struggled to reconcile what was on my tray with its Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition. The biggest problem was the one thing a barbecue restaurant needs to get right: the meat. It arrived cold and lacked flavor. The tacos fell apart as I ate them, and nothing about the taste made up for that. I've had considerably better tacos from food trucks. At a place with this reputation, I expected much more. The sides didn't rescue the meal. The cornbread was dry, the mac and cheese was mediocre, and the atmosphere felt lifeless during our visit. The meat should have been the star of the show; instead, it was the biggest letdown. The staff, however, were wonderful--warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. They deserve credit, and the service was easily the best part of the experience. This wasn't an inedible meal. It was an underwhelming one from a restaurant I used to enthusiastically recommend. Two stars reflects this visit, and I hope the kitchen gets back to the standard that made me love this place.
