The Scene – Characterizing the State Grille as "just" a neighborhood restaurant is accurate--though it's important to note the neighborhood is nearby River Oaks, Houston's bastion of big money. Formerly the Confederate House, this clubby operation seems comfortably stuck in time. Wood paneling, soft lights and landscape paintings create an atmosphere of a more genteel period. While some may find this all a bit staid, the target audience--particularly the old school, old money crowd--embrace it as gracious and gratifying. – – The Food – The Gulf Coast continental menu…

Will not go back

by kelspivey

I ate there last night and will not go back. It started with a waiter who brought a wine list and did not come back to the table,after 15 min's we asked another waiter to take our drink order.When she brought our drink,she asked for our food order. 10 min's later, the original waiter showed up and said he saw that another waiter got our order.The seafood gumbo was light colored and very,very thick and tasted like flour and nothing else and the seafood was a grand total of 3 crawfish tails. The Country Fried Rib-Eye came out soggy and greasy,like the oil was not hot enough when it was deep fried. The sauteed veg's were so over cooked they were nothing but mush. The only thing that tasted good was the cream gravy that came with the steak. Very disappoinated in the meal we had there.

  • Pros: Good Wine List
  • Cons: Bad food

Great reinvention

by sdjones

Actually took a friend there for lunch, who previously refused to support the restaurant when it carried the "'Confederate" moniker. Even he enjoyed the food there, and we both found the environment and service anything but what we would expect from a restaurant that once brandished the Confederate Grille name. Keep up the good new work!

  • Pros: Food & Service
  • Cons: Chairs could be modernized/upgraded.
