Editor’s picks
Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in The Infatuation. Updated July 2026.
Josephine's · Midtown
The Infatuation. Smoked BBQ shrimp bathed in a dark roux; Southern Gulf seafood cooking at its most soulful.
Little’s Oyster Bar · Montrose
The Infatuation. Ice-cold trays of oysters, seared Gulf filets, and glamorous seafood platters.
Goode Company Seafood · Rice Village
The Infatuation. Mesquite-grilled Gulf Coast fish and some of Houston's best campechana inside a converted rail car.
Christie's · Galleria
A century-old Galleria-area institution with a dining room that feels like an old-school cruise ship deck, serving fat Gulf oysters and crispy fried snapper po'boys. It is a long-running spot for classic, unfussy Gulf seafood in a nostalgic setting that regulars have leaned on for generations.
