About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
  • Great for fine wines
Named after our daughter Grace, along with the idea that a steakhouse can be graceful, whimsical, and elegant without being dark and moody. What started as a vision to keep the vibe light and airy while letting the outside in, has turned into an Award-winning design of which we couldn't be prouder.
This menu is truly meant to offer something for everyone, with often found steakhouse features as well as a plethora of seafood to truly highlight the best of the gulf and beyond. Prime, Dry Aged and local Wagyu cuts of beef in 4 to 40 oz. portions are available to satisfy any sized appetite. Innovative cocktails and wines from around the world top it all off -making Guard and Grace the place to be for happy hour, a couple's night out or your private event.
Our family, or Ohana, is a passionate group of culinary obsessives who strive to make memories that will last a lifetime. Houston is a special city that has stolen our hearts, and from the bottom of them, we thank you for joining us.

    Lovely birthday celebration with gracious service. Trey our server had impeccable table side presence and manners. We started out with this massive tropical cocktail which was tangy goodness. My guy loved his filet mignon steak (cooked perfectly medium rare) and shrimp cocktail. My wedge salad was huge portion and the grilled shrimp paired well with the salad. The bangers potato side were spicy and complimented the steak well. The team at Guard and Grace kindly treated my guy to a toffee cake and and triple chocolate chip cookies to celebrate his birthday and the cookies were decadent. Highly recommend Trey and his team to celebrate milestones.

    The Reservations I had at G&G had gone through beautifully. We were celebrating a local graduate from UH and our server made sure to make our graduate feel special. The service was amazing and top notch and the food…Wow just wow. I can’t recommend the Beef Tartar and the Dry aged Steaks anymore.

    Had a great business lunch with some clients this week. Everyone enjoyed their meals, service was spot on, and the warm cookie at the end is always a nice touch!

    The server was good and very kind, but ordering dessert took forever. The entire meal was a little draged out. Also the valet service is terrible! It took a VERY long time to get our cars. It is VERY expensive and no one was around. The payment system is clunky. Enough that it might discourage me from returning to the restaurant.
