Count me in the camp that didn't think Georgia James was all that. It was really good but nothing special compared to the other plethora of steak places we have in this town. Great steak is because of the meat and all a place can do is not screw it up.

As for $100K at B&B in one evening that's a damn event and not a dinner. $1,000 a person is REALLY damn lavish and you still need 100 people to pop $100K.

Sounds like someone got taken advantage of by their guests. Sucks that happened.

Most corporate events don't even come close to $100K much less a random night out at a steakhouse.

No, she's not from Houston. She grew up going to the SA rodeo when it was at the Freeman but even that is an 1.5 hour drive from her house. She's from south Texas. Up until 2-3 years ago, Houston went many years without a rodeo. If it's not PRCA, it's not a rodeo. I know they lost their affiliation for quite sometime (10 years maybe?). Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I've read some stupid stuff before but that bolded part might be tops of the list. Bravo.

I didn't mean to say she was an expert. I just meant that she knows more than the average person walking into a steakhouse. I'm sure there are many on this board that knows more than her which is why I came here in the first place.

I think Pappa's is great but she wanted to try something new for us like STQ, B&B, or Georgia James.

Sorry you are being bashed for your wife's steak knowledge and her ranch upbringing. Most of the urban hipster tools ripping you here wouldn't know a good steak if the steer from which it came kicked them in the head.

I also appreciate your feeling that a "rodeo isn't a rodeo" if it isn't PRCA-sanctioned. The Houston rodeo was always PRCA-sanctioned until a conflict with new PRCA management in the early 2010's…and it became sanctioned again in 2019 when the differences were worked out. PRCA cowboys always have participated at Houston (sanctioned or not), because of the huge purse offered there.

Pappas Bros. is a great, consistent, classic steakhouse experience with a super wine list. But if you've been there before and want something different, try B&B Butchers. Cool atmosphere, and really, really good steaks. Georgia James is good, but their steak quality and preparation is hit or miss and it is definitely overpriced.

Hope this helps and I hope y'all have a great time!

Big fan of B&Bs, get the bacon three ways as an appetizer.

Golden Corral is the place for a good steak.

I think that's fine if you're taking the family, but for a nicer couple's night out I prefer Kelley's.

uhh carpetbaggers are basically a requirement.


I've always wanted to play a game as a double date where each person draws a course and you basically pick the restaurant/item for the course


appetizer
main
dessert
cocktail (could be first or last last)

carprtbaggers would be my appetizer. parmesan cheesecake at Nancy's would be my dessert.

So you go to a $600 dinner but can't tip the valet $5?

Damn.

I hate to valet. Gtfo of my car.

Halo lights at the dinner table? I wouldn't have been able to control my laughter and mocking. Wow.

That's an odd take.

My driver LOVES valet. He thinks it's the best. He can stay seated while the valet folks open the doors. He's always super pumped when I tell him we're going somewhere that has valet.

Not one mention of going to the Aquarium and taking a ride on the ferris wheel while replaying your best high school moves? Tine board, you've lost your touch.

With wine it would be easy. Probably ordered a few fancy bottles, got drunk and the waitress with big tits kept opening and pouring.

Wife is getting a $600 meal. The least she can do is make the walk in probably heels in the crappy parking lot and wait the extra 4 minutes it takes while you drive around looking for spaces without the orange cones blocking them off.
