Restaurants near Downtown Tunnels

Pappas Steakhouse is what you expect… great steaks, wonderful food and service and elegant atmosphere. It makes your dining experience special. I don’t normally write reviews of restaurants because there are a few that I feel live up to the expectation, but Pappa’s Steakhouse is one of those rare examples. We love the downtown location and special feel. My only criticism was that they sat us in the room with the wine inventory and only six tables and they sat us next to the door, even though the room was completely empty. We did ask to be moved to another table which they accommodated, but why is it when you go to a restaurant with a reservation so often that seems to happen? It was resolved and we had a lovely meal and we’ll be back again. 

Great food and service. Upscale atmosphere. Experienced waiter very cognizant of our timing to make show at Hobby Center. One of my fav restaurants!

Food was delicious. Salmon roll was so good. They should Offer / ask / remind you about validating parking at the restaurant.

This is a favorite for me to bring clients for lunch. Having dinner here was a first. Everyone was wonderful. Met Tony the Manager who personally brought bread to the table when he noticed we didn't have any. Cocktails were spot on. Even the table busser was all smiles and attentive to the whole room. I highly recommend for business lunches and dinners.

The ambiance is everything, lets start with that. The waiters were attentive to our needs and knew the menu. FOOD, food was soooo delicious, hot, came out right away, and the smell made my taste buds rise. Don't keep reading, schedule that reservation!!!
