About this restaurant

  • Great for brunch
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for outdoor dining
Driven by gratitude, Gratify Neighborhood Bistro transports guests to a contemporary bistro-style Versailles – an every day escape where guests are encouraged to come as they are and relax with friends, family, kids, and coworkers. At the core of our concept is classic bistro fare – bringing approachable dishes made from locally sourced, high quality product to the surrounding neighborhood. Shareables like Spinach & Artichoke Dip, Onion Rings, and Crab Cakes make group dining effortless. Entrées include heartier dishes such as the Gratify Burger, Brick Chicken, Short Rib, and more. A can't-miss happy hour offers half price on all bottles of wine and cocktails Wed-Fri 3-6pm. Daily brunch, served Wed-Fri 11-3 and Sat & Sun 10-3, is the cherry on top of this local neighborhood favorite – with diners flocking for Eggs Benedict, Crème Brûlée French Toast, and the Gratify Burger throughout the week. For parties of 9 or more, please email groupdining@gratifyhouston.com.

    It was overall good, and I loved my pesto pasta! The only bad part was that it was too warm for me.

    Fabulous! Best spinache and artichoke dip in Houston! Crab cakes never fail. Love the salads and the weekly specials are always creative and delicious. Service is top notch too.

    My wife and I, infrequent diners, found the journey to this Rice Village establishment well worth it for the fresh seafood we craved. However, unclear signage, particularly for the shared valet with Coppa Osteria ($10, credit only), could be improved. We opted for indoor seating, avoiding the reported pressure for outdoor tables, and found ourselves near the bar. The atmosphere was an eclectic mix of attire, surprisingly cohesive. Our attentive waitress guided us through cocktails; the "Garden Party" was refreshing, while the "Pretty in Pink" proved a bit too bitter for my taste. From the sharing menu, the Oysters Rockefeller were a standout – expertly balanced, though I missed some accompanying bread. Caviar and Chips were a pleasant surprise; delicate and not overly fishy, the addition of capers or shallots could elevate them further. The wedge salad, while well-executed, had a vinaigrette I found unusual (though tasty) for this dish. An abundance of carrots threw off the balance. The Moules Frites were disappointing; limp fries paired poorly with fresh, yet fennel-overpowered, mussels. Decaf cappuccinos were a pleasant surprise, and service throughout was impeccable. Unfortunately, the indoor temperature was uncomfortably warm due to the patio door being frequently opened. The bill exceeded $200 for two, a price point demanding flawless execution, which wasn't quite met. We'd return to sample more, but the cost will make it a rare treat

    One of my new Houston faves. The service was outstanding. The food was so yummy. The ambience was cozy. Loved the decor. We had the mussels and frites as a starter after I talked my 2 colleagues into trying them for their first time - they liked them. I had the Gratify Salad and the Poached Salmon with whipped potatoes. And we finished off with the cannoli. ALL OF IT was so so good. Can't wait to go back next time I'm in Houston.

    Since the host assisted us (party of 3), it was a true top service. All waitresses recommended us great dishes/drinks. The food was amazing and even the mock-tails were surprisingly good! This is a place we will come back soon.
