What Our Expert Scouts Are Saying
The best part about oysters is that even if you don't find a pearl, you still get to eat delicious oyster meat, which, in some ways, is better than finding a pearl (you can't eat pearls). Brasserie 19 serves some of the finest oysters in Houston, and that's just the beginning of this French restaurant's menu. And in case you were wondering, the answer is yes: Texas is allowed to have great French food. It's called TexFrench.

Brasserie 19 is French classism meets
modern luxury. This place is a total "seen and be seen" type of spot on most nights. They have great music, a great vibe, and excellent food. A few of our menu favorites are:
*Smoked Salmon Rillettes - Herb salad, Dijon, Baguette Toast
*Dry-Aged Rib Eye - Potato Gratin, Bone Marrow, Broccoli Rabe, Bordelaise Sauce
*Lemon Bavarian- Lemon curd, shortbeard, toasted marshmallow, berry coulis

The 63 degree Sous Vide Egg, Steak
Frites (OMG, the frites), fresher-than-fresh seafood and a value-driven wine list keep 'em coming back, week after week, to the sophisticated and chic Brasserie 19.
Finish your meal with a perfect pairing of Chef Amanda McGraw's Butterscotch Tart, with a Belgian Trappistes Rochefort beer or mixologist Joseph Stark's Royal Mission cocktail. You can never go wrong with Chef McGraw's Greyhound Slushie.

Ultimate ppl watching in. Indulge in the ultimate people-watching at Frenchie-upscale River Oaks brasserie. Fantastic oyster selection and standard brasserie fare like steak frites. Shockingly affordable wine list. Go off-menu and try one Executive Chef Amanda McGraw's daily specials or her delectable appetizer of parmesan custard with a 63 degree sous vide egg. Apple tart is scrumptious and if it's your birthday, let them know ahead of time for a cool tabel-side surprise cotton candy.

What's not to love. I do lunch here 2 to 3 times a week and it's consistently wonderful.

What a delight. I had no expectations and was truly impressed with the wild salmon with quinoa. I am a picky simple person (if that is ever possible). I asked for salmon and they delivered a perfectly cooked piece of fish. The quinoa was slightly over salted but accompanied the fish well. The foie gras was fine as it should be at a French restaurant. I really like this restaurant, the atmosphere was relaxing and also easy to get to with ample parking spaces. What a pleasure.

Absolute Perfection. My husband and I have been several times. The food is divine and they actually know how to make a martini! The bar is fun to mingle and watch people! Go.
