Had a mid-week lunch here. Located in the Midtown area. Neat place with indoor and outdoor seating. I had no wait. I had the Shrimp and Grits which is under their large plates option. Shrimp was cooked well. Grits were very tasty with the creole sauce and mushrooms. The only issue was the portion was on the smaller end especially for a $28 plate. No bread either. Other than that service was good and my food was excellent. Some of the other dishes I saw come out looked very good as well. I will come back and check out some other options. Parking can be an issue especially during busy times.

Worth the trip! Stopped by on our way home from IAH looking for some Louisiana style food. Success! The recipes actually are slightly Mississippi influenced, but in Houston it is surprisingly difficult to find seafood which is actually seasoned New Orleans style. Josephine’s does a great job. It was a little early this season for crawfish, so the shells were a bit soft and they tended a little small, and not quite as heavily seasoned as I prefer, but the market price was in line with the area and the flavor was good. They seem to combine the boil and steam methods, which is how I prepare crawfish as well, so you can ask them to add more of the seasoning if you want to. I found the flavor built over time, so I didn’t modify. Most critically, you can get a real po-boy sandwich here. Yes! Leidenheimer bread, THE ONLY LEGITIMATE (remaining in commercial production) PO-BOY BREAD is used for their shrimp po-boy. My boys would only give me a corner of a crust, so it’s possible that I need to be a nicer mom, but it melts on the mouth. For this alone, we would be returning, but happily every item we tried (fresh oysters, hush puppies, the French fries and the above) was very good to excellent. Hope you enjoy it as much.

Brussel sprouts had too much sauce and differing flavor profiles. Just too much going on for me but some may prefer it like that. Boiled shrimp and crawfish were good. Again the sauce was heavy and I'm glad we had it on the side. Paul Prudhomme would have approved. Sausage and mushrooms were also good. Service was good but not superior. Price is good and service and food were on par with the pricing structure. I would come back again and try some other things off the menu.

Had an incredible evening, as soon as we stepped into the restaurant the hostess this was very hospitable. We had reservations so we were promptly seated. Everything we ordered was consistent throughout each dish even to the dessert. I must say those jerk collars got me wanted to go back for sure our server was awesome. We will definitely be back.

The food was tasty, service was excellent. The frozen margaritas tasted like the frozen ones at a once existing mezcaleria on Main Street downtown called, The Pastry War. They are STRONG and delicious!
