I would go back to Houston just to eat at this restaurant! The food and service were wonderful. The manager was so friendly, he came to our table and made wonderful recommendations and conversation. The soup was a dream and the salmon, perfectly cooked.

Absolutely blown away with the food & service. Our waiter was Josh and he was phenomenal start to finish. Answered every question we had, gave amazing recommendations, & made our anniversary special. The sommeliers in house chose a fantastic wine for us and even offered a dessert from his hometown. We have been to several fine dining restaurants in Houston and the service anywhere else does not compare to Little’s. Fantastic!

The host opened the door for me and seated me at the bar. Extreme service right there. As first time dining here, Alvin recommended me his best choices. Service was very attentive. Scallop Chowder is top tier and 100% would return to order more. Gulf Coast Cioppino is rich and delicious. What a great combination of seafood in one dish. I never had Crisp Eggplant. This unique dish is has a crispy exterior and soft inside. The nuoc cham sauce enhanced the flavor where it’s not too acidic but tangy. The restaurant itself is very stunning and elegant. I feel fancy being there. Even though Alvin works at the bar, he provided the utmost hospitality. Will return to try other dishes including chowder again.

We had the most delightful experience at Littles. We sat at the counter and watched dozens and dozens of oysters shocked throughout the night. The restaurant was packed to the brim and the ambience was lovely. The service was attentive and helpful. All the food was delicious and beautifully presented. I highly recommend the Texas red fish - it was cooked and seasoned to perfection. Great restaurant!

A Memorable Night at Little Oyster Bar My family and I went to Little Oyster Bar last night to celebrate my sister’s birthday, and it was truly a memorable experience. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by a gentleman at the door who guided us to our table with genuine hospitality. The service was absolutely superb—elegant, attentive, and on par with the exceptional hospitality I’ve experienced while traveling overseas. From the refreshing hot towels to the seamless coordination of the 5–7 waitstaff who took care of us, every detail was handled with care and precision. The food was nothing short of outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish was a delight, and the atmosphere perfectly complemented the dining experience. They also offer valet service, which made the evening even more convenient and stress-free. Highly recommend Little Oyster Bar for any special occasion or simply when you want to enjoy top-tier service and delicious food in a refined setting.
