Modern bistro for American-European fare. Intimate bistro serving a mix of New American & European cuisine plus all-natural wines & cocktails.
Everything was amazing! Recommended making a reservation as they get very busy. Parking is around back or on the street. We were sat immediately and out server was great. They had great recommendations and every dish they recommended was a hit. The chicken is so moist and buttery. The burger was very interesting with the crunchy English muffin and lots of melted cheese. The grilled summer squash was so savory. The salad was crisp and refreshing. Very casual place some were in shorts and nice tshirts. You can dress up or down with no issues. As the night goes on the people were dressed nicer. Very dimly lit and candles on every table.
It absolutely lived up to all of praise. Every dish felt like a new experience, which is SO hard to come by nowadays. I mean, shockingly rare. And every dish was fabulous. Believe it or not, our favorite dish was the roasted grouper. I know they change the menu out, but that goes to show that they contain to shine on their seemingly basic proteins. How that dish was so good is some kind of witchcraft. I also have a very dumb and frustrating allergy, which is always embarrassing to communicate and frequently gets in the way of a good meal. Our server / bartender was so accommodating, took it very seriously, and made my dinning experience that much more comfortable. Honestly when you have an allergy, half of the time people don’t think it’s that serious and won’t double check with the chef and your a little nervous for your entire meal. I had full confidence that they weren’t trying to murder me. (V cool). Easily a 10/10. Go. Sit where you can. It’s totally worth it
This place really impressed me. First the service was AMAZING, which led us to ordered a bunch of dishes to share, even things that I wouldn’t expect to like were sooo good!!!! Presentation was top notch and the cocktails were fun and delicious! The food was so eclectic and well paired that it was a pleasure to eat. We ate all we ordered plus also desserts.. my favorites were the ink pasta and the croquettes and definitely the caramel cake. But I ate all anyways! I’ll be back for sure!
Absolutely exceptional. Out of everything we got it’s impossible to pick a favorite. Service was excellent, with the server switching the plates between dishes so sauces wouldn’t mix. Among the dishes the stand outs where the fish collar, which was the most moist fish I’ve ever had in my life, the Nancy cakes, and the croquettes. Believe it or not, the fries where exceptional and where possible the best fries I’ve ever had. Our favorite desert was the Parmesan and black pepper cheese cake. Over all it was an exceptional meal with exceptional service and I would highly recommend going and I look forward to going again.
This place ranks in my top 3 restaurants in all of Houston. And that's saying a lot. Every dish is full of flavor, and all of the components just compliment each other so well. I've been here a handful of times, and each time just gets better and better. Oh, and the service is one of the best in the business. Can't wait for the next visit.
Nancy’s Hustle has an innovative and unique menu. Everything sounds delicious. I really wanted to like this place as much as most other reviews do. It was good but didn’t satisfy my expectations. The best thing were the Nancy Cakes. They were soft, warm, and familiar but also had an interesting spin on ingredients. The chicken was good and so was the linguine, but they sound more promising than what was delivered. I love sauce and wasn’t too excited about the chicken’s fennel aioli. I also felt that the sesame seeds in the pasta were unnecessary. Overall I did have a great time here! I was just expecting something more in terms of flavour and execution. The atmosphere was a good balance of cozy and lively. Would still come back to try other dishes.
If this meal was a play, it deserved a long standing ovation! We had a delightful experience at Nancy’s Hustle last night. Everything (and i mean *every* thing) was absolutely on point. We started out with some made in house rye sourdough bread with cultured butter and marmalade. It was crispy, hot and smelled like heaven. Tasted even better. Then got the gem lettuce salad with anchovies and pancetta. Another hit. We followed that with striped sea bass over a parsnip sauce and it was incredible. Last but not least, Nancy’s Cakes. Oh my where do i start. Fluffy pillows of buttermilk corn cakes with cultured butter and roe. To put a bow on the whole thing, the service from Noah was top notch. Do yourself a favor and try this Houston gem
This place is great. Came late on a Saturday night and it was still pretty packed. The service is great everywhere. I got the Nancy cakes which were phenomenal - the cakes were nice and pillowy. Also got the cheeseburger which was pretty good as well but I think I still like the one at squabble better. The portion sizes are a bit small vs expectations but regardless this place is definitely worth checking out
