Little’s Oyster Bar Houston

One of my best meals in Houston this year, hands down. 🦪✨

I’m always chasing those wow moments when I dine, and when the wows keep coming, it stays with you. That’s exactly what happened at Little’s Oyster Bar. From the little gem and burrata salad to a daily hamachi aguachile with passionfruit, every course hit. The scallop chowder was silky, rich, and so good I chased every last spoonful, while the crab croquettes were pure perfection (better than most crab cakes in town, and I’m not overselling).

Service was impeccable, and the wine pairings by Advanced Sommelier Omar Velasquez elevated the entire experience. For mains, the cioppino was rich & flavorful, but the house grouper in brown butter caper sauce may actually be my favorite fish dish in Houston. Desserts finished on a high note, from fresh homemade fruit sorbet to carrot cake and the elegant new toasted buttermilk custard.

Consistently ranked among the best restaurants in Houston, Little’s—helmed by Chef Jason Ryczek—does everything right, no shortcuts. Easily one of my top meals of 2025.

They’re open for New Year’s Eve, so if you’re looking for one last hurrah, snag a reservation and thank me later. 🍾
