We come here for our anniversary every couple of years (I proposed to my wife here) and it has a very old school feel to it. It’s low lit and quiet and perfect for an intimate dinner.

“Welcome” said a white haired man who donned a white apron as my wife and I entered the restaurant. He was sitting in the bar area watching TV. The restaurant was mostly empty with only 4 or 5 tables occupied. We were recommended this restaurant by a professional who we encountered while here in Houston. Authentic Italian, and it did not disappoint. Quite possible the best Italian food I have ever had. I couldn’t decide between Lobster Ravioli or the more traditional Spaghetti and Meatballs. So when the server came back I asked if I could have half of each. Both were fantastic! As we were finishing dinner the man with the white apron approached our table. I had the sense when we entered the restaurant he was the owner. My wife asked “Are you Damien?” He chuckled and said “No ma’am. My name is Joseph, but they call me bubba.” “Damien is my cousin, he founded Carrabba’s Italian restaurant and when they went national part of the deal was he had to sell this restaurant. About 30 years ago he called me, we are cousins, and I bought it from him.” If you are ever in Houston, I would recommend you walk into this forgotten establishment for dinner. You won’t be disappointed. Tell Bubba, I said hello.
