has anyone ate here before? im wondering how the food and environment is? i got reservations on valentines day. but im still open on ideas for other places to eat? any recommendations other than Houstons?

 

Can't go wrong at Houston's. I love that place. They used to have the best cedar plank salmon I've ever taste. I highly recommend the prime rib or the baby back ribs. The caesar salad is bomb too!!

 

Houston's is excellent. Great service! Great food! Knife and fork ribs are awesome!!

 

+1 for Houston's. Good food/environment. I usually get the baby back ribs or the Hawaiian steak.

 

houston's is good, but you should consider Boa if you're going to be in santa monica.

 

Nick & Stef's in downtown http://www.patinagroup.com/nickStef/
Best ribeye I ever had!!!

My fovorite for Valentine's is Maison Akira(French/Japanese) in Pasadena http://www.maisonakira.com/client/ma...ira/index.html

 

+1 for the Hawaiian Rib Eye. VERY good

 

Houston's is great. Went there the first time while on a business trip.
it was right across the corner from my hotel. Funny thing is that I ended up eating by myself . They have these cool video cameras around to view the sushi chef's doing their job. I went a second time with my nephew when he drove me ver to the hospital (UCLA) the night before my next appointment. Deffinitely a great pick though. I'll go again when I have the chance. They also had a very good artichoke appetizer to think about.

Later,

nice so far, im sticking with houston. my mouth is dripping wet hearing about the food platters. its going to be so good when i can eat again. i got my wisdom teeth pulled monday (1/26). man ive never been this excited to eat before haha.

how much are the plates from what price to what price?

 

Im definately gonna check out Boa, nick & stefs and maison akira soon. ive been running out of places where to dine at. ill keep those in mind.

I ate at the Odyssey...food was mediocre. then i took her to the Castaway and it was way better than the odyssey. She also took me to Ketchup. good american food there, especially the variety of sauces.

 

You should try Ruth's Chris. There's a Houston's and Ruth's Chris in Pasadena.

 

baby back ribs in houston's are to die for

 

the rib eye at BOA is fvcking awesome. i've eaten at both the Houston's and BOA in SM, since i live like 5 blocks away

you, your tummy, and you lady will enjoy yourselves w/ the food and service and ambience.

 

I am planning on taking the wife to Sevillas(spanish rest) in Long Beach..get some sangria and Tapas(she gets to drive back home)

 

+100000 that place is bombbb haha

I know is valentines day but try going with more people so you can order some more appetizers or go back again =)
