It's magical that you enabled everyone to help you by providing your location in the city.

Are you new to Houston or something?

I like seafood a lot but I'm happy with a simple grilled-grouper sandwich or a fried fresh speckled trout is hard to beat.

Maybe offshoreangler will weigh in. He's as familiar with Houston dining as anyone.

For my part, I'd take her to Katie's in Galveston and then ride the ferry at sunset.

For a celebration…I’d say Little’s…get the roasted grouper with radishes and the crispy eggplant…caviar service too.

While not a seafood restaurant per say, YiaYia’s has an almost identical dish as the Little’s grouper (not a coincidence since they are both Pappas restaurants) that swaps out grouper for snapper and radishes for artichokes…really like this place, the small plates here are great and the restaurant is stunning at night.

I like Clark’s too, it’s more atmosphere than food though, not that the food is bad, but I always feel like everything needs to be seasoned more. The butterscotch pot du crème might be one of my favorite desserts in the city.

I’ll give you a wild card…take her to Fung’s kitchen and get a whole arse king crab…or a lobster or dungenous crab…black pepper butter or chili garlic style.

I don’t mind Katie’s…the snapper collars there are great…and I like that you can get tilefish or yellow edge/snowy grouper almost always…but I haven’t really found anything else there that makes me want to drive an hour.

Same with Pier 6…couple things on that menu are good…the drive is just a bitch. And then it’s also full of the movers and shakers of Webster and BOI trash that has a little of daddy’s money to throw around.

I would say Josephine’s and Navy Blue. Little’s and Eunice are good backups.

Don't sleep on Latuli. It's not seafood focused, but it's Bryan Caswell. Baw knows how to cook some fish.

For a truly divine dining experience, head over to étoile cuisine et bar and try the lobster bisque and dover sole. It's phenomenal.

Rajin' Cajun on Richmond is legit, although I wouldn't go for a special occasion like a birthday as it's more casual. Solid Cajun food that will remind you of Louisiana.
