About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for brunch
  • Charming
Brunch on Saturday and Sunday is primarily first come, first served. If you do not see the time you want available online, please call us directly.

When owner Johnny Carrabba set out on his next restaurant venture, he knew his vision would include the fond memories he had of his dear grandmother Grace Mandola. Grace, also known to the family as Mama, was a Sicilian woman born to immigrant parents in Louisiana. She had a flair for cooking, hospitality, and deep faith.

She was known to make bread from scratch every Saturday for her legendary three-hour Sicilian Sunday lunches; and, her newly established family roots in Louisiana added interesting flavors to her home cooked meals. The entire Mandola family, including her five children and fourteen grandchildren, was regularly greeted in her home with smells of warm bread, well brewed sauces and homemade soups. It was around her table that her family learned the true meaning and value of relationships, friendships and good food.

    We were in celebrating my moms birthday. My grandparents who don’t get out much since Covid along with some relatives who were visiting from Memphis, TN. I’m a regular at Grace’s but there was not a single complaint. Our server, Bradley was absolutely amazing! His patience for 13 people was impeccable! I just love Grace’s. This place will always have a place in my heart. The service + the excellent food. You can’t go wrong!

    The service was outstanding! Our waiter was welcoming and allowed us to enjoy our dinner and drinks without feeling rushed in ordering or while actually eating. The food is always good. When the drink my wife ordered came out too spicy, the bar tender came over to apologize and offer my wife a new drink. Great customer service!

    The food is always excellent and service very good. It was very loud last night but it was Saturday. Several large parties were behind us and a bussing station next to us so a lot of traffic.

    Friends recommended Grace's for our after funeral fellowship luncheon with family. We were all delighted with the attention to details we received! Mix of Asian, Cajun fusion with traditional American cuisines. Every dish was delicious and plentiful! Desserts were awesome. Next time we're in Houston, we'll be back to enjoy more on menu.
