    Are you actually going to eat, or are you just asking?

    Taking a woman or business or family or what? Details, dude.

    I always thought Da Marco was a can't miss. Tony's too. Newer places: Oxheart, Underbelly, Reef. Those are the only expense account places I've been into town for in the past year

    Underbelly is way overrated. Uchi. RGD. massraffs. Tonys.

    Low key place - max wives dive still does good bar food.

    ^Hit them all. I was about to say those places. I've been to Mark's a couple of times. Pretty good.

    I always liked that space, and the food was great. Another one of my old favorites...is the Backstreet Cafe still there? Loved that patio in the fall.

    I know someone who went to Oxheart and hated it. He's an extreme foodie, too, as in he'll weekly drive to different cities for food.

    I've never heard of Oxheart. I did a quick search on Google Maps to see where it's located, and this is the one sentence description:

    "Thoughtfully sourced & vegetable-centric New American tasting menus in an industrial setting."

    Sounds like something I would hate.

    My favorite restaurant in Houston is Fogo de Chao. But it's not a really a local restaurant, and I'm guessing that's what you're looking for.

    Oxheart is a good experience and a couple of the courses were so good but I'm not sure that it's worth the $100 min per person.

    Provisions is always good, a buddy of mine went to Pass and said he had a better experience than Per Se.

    So because Pass and Provisions hasn't been mentioned yet, I will add this.
