Definitely The Woodlands. Last time I had dinner there, the next table was literally passing Rolexes around. Juuuust rich enough to tell everyone how rich you are, but not rich enough to shut up. The Woodlands.


This is gold.

I spent about two minutes yesterday looking for the link to that thread on the outdoors board, but I had things to do so I gave up pretty quickly. Someone started a thread a while back about University police surplus Glock pistols, and I believe I was the first reply on that thread, saying something like "I would love to have one of those". I really would. In TexAgs fashion, the thread devolved, and someone posted a picture which was taken very recently of the university police riding around with bicycle helmets on their new electric scooters. I really don't care who you are… they looked like dorks. Someone said something like "think of all the crimes those pistols had stopped", to which I replied something like "yeah, I just think of all the MIPS, jaywalking, and riding bicycles on sidewalks tickets those things have seen."

Apparently that was an affront to someone's identity, so they got on my website and instead of calling me they called my mom, screaming at her. She called me laughing afterwards saying that the guy wouldn't stop screaming so she just put the phone down and let him vent while she sewed. When this old man stopped screaming, she picked the phone back up and told him it sounded like he had anger issues and needed to talk to someone about it. He kind of agreed which was the funniest part to me. And that was it. I don't hate the police, my friend in Bryan PD has made way funnier (and meaner) jokes about University/CS police, and I won't repeat those. College Station and the University itself is a very safe place and I'm not sure why we can't poke fun about that. But that episode taught me that people are crazy and can't handle jokes.


Your mom sounds awesome.

My mom would probably enjoy talking to her while they sewed.

Although if any Texags psycho called her screaming about something i said on here, I might be inclined to call a friend to get a background and/or welfare check on the guy. And anyone I would call would also laugh at those dorks at UPD. In fact, one of my regulars when I bartended in school was a UPD cop who would also be able to laugh at them.

But it's utterly amazing how seriously some people take their Texagging. The internet was more fun when fewer pill-popping schizos knew how to find it.

Just go to Pappa's or Trulucks and call it good

Killen's Steakhouse is friggin awesome, but it's in Pearland and out of your way. I've never been ot the STQ joint so can't speak. Never heard of this Bludorn place, menu looks good though.

Brennan's on the Bayou, Perry's (porkchop is phenomenal), V&A's, B&B's...all good choices.

But if you really want to knock their socks off, take them to Nifna's on Navigation and blow $150 on fajitas and another couple hundred on margs. Or take them to somewhere more....cultural. Turkey Leg Hut, Breakfast Klub or Trill Burger. Show them your more modern inclusive side, as well as adventurous in a "may get mugged or shot" way. They'll never forget it.

Can anyone tell me a fantastic restaurant ideally on the College Station side of Houston? I have a big deal closing soon and want to come celebrate at an amazing restaurant. Think The Republic in College Station but even nicer. Also doesn't have to be a steakhouse. Something like $200-250pp with a couple cocktails would be perfect. Thanks in advance for any help!

Congrats, but don't count your chickens before they hatch.

One more dollar gets a four course meal at Perry's Steakhouse (if you actually want a steak, $20 extra)

lol nope. Granted I'm pretty intrigued with this thread. Not everyday I get to see someone post about the "college station side of Houston". Impressive

I try to stay more on the Laredo side of Houston myself.

Le Jardinier at MFAH is a unique venue with great food around that price range.

Oh yeah, forgot about this place...we just went recently for our anniversary and enjoyed it. If you're into "fine dining" and not just the best quality steak, I'd recommend. You're definitely paying for the fancy presentation and such though.

I may be too late to weigh in since your event had no deadline posted
but even though I would prefer Luigis & Jazz to The Republic in taste/environment
may I also add my criteria and want-to-sample pick?

It's gotta be out of the main portion of Houston giving me a break from traffic
and a feeling CS/home is just a long freeway away, which of course eliminates
most of the Highest Rated Fine Dining on the map = ergo your question & quest.

would be worth my time in a new adventure, so hope it's not a dud

Yesterday, I had a family member ask me: "If you had to recommend out of towners on good to great food anywhere in Houston; just a damn good plate of food. What would you say?"

My response, Thursday CFS at Lankford grocery and cheese enchiladas. And close to that the twice cooked pork at Mala Sichuan (Bellaire location).

yeah for some reason I was really excited to hear his review of wherever he went. He's so excited that it seemed like it would be very wholesome happy content.

Tris was probably the right answer as close to CS as possible, but really good.
