“ Solid meal of elevated French-Spanish dishes... highlights included braised rabbit linguine, black seafood rice full of seafood, suckling pig with crispy skin, and even the special dish of venison served with a chocolate demi place. Overall, a very pleasant dinner. ”
“ I had a wonderful experience the service was and amazing and I got treated very well would recommend ”
“ Came for lunch on Thursday. The restaurant is gorgeous and the service impeccable. But, omg, the food!! I had the fixed price 3 courses of mushroom soup, scallops with couscous and crema Catalana and it could very well be the most perfect meal I've ever had. Great, great wine list too ”
“ A+ in every category. The duck confit with quail egg and toasted baguette is a must. The citrus Salmon also a must. Hubby had the paella and he said it's continues to be the best he's ever had. I had the trout with jumbo shrimp. So delicious and a marvel of flavors. I chose the place to celebrate his birthday. It was perfect. The owners are so warm and charming, the place is cozy and elegant and the food is unparalleled. Over Christmas and new year we have been to every hit list restaurant in Houston and Costa Brava is the clear stand out and winner. Make reservations and look forward to the food and experience. I missed out on the chocolate bread pudding so we must return soon ”
“ We had an OUTSTANDING experience last night at Costa Brava. My husband literally said, "everything was completely on point." Every course was delicious, the service by Angel was great, and the restaurant is beautiful. Oh and the website says no splitting soups, appetizers, or entrees but they only mean they don't split it in the kitchen. It's all good! Thanks Costa Brava team. ”
“ Food is very good, and they have good selection of wine as well. We celebrated my friend's birthday here and we really enjoyed it. Parking is available in the plaza ”
“ My wife and I have been coming here for the past few years and have always been impressed by the quality of the food and the great service. The honors are fantastic people, and we love hanging out with the regulars. Great for a date night, dinner with the family, and celebrations. ”
“ Great food. Small but quaint. Can't go wrong with any of their fish dishes. Good wine selection. ”
“ First time in Houston, in fact first time in Texas. My 21st state visited. I was lucky enough that the new friend I was visiting with had the good judgement to book a table at Costa Brava. As I was treating her I had hoped it wouldn't turn into "Costa lot!" The lovely couple that run the bistro were so generous in their warmth to this newcomer, one in the front of the house and the other the head chef. The trouble she took to personally check on us before we ordered the Paella without crustations my friend keeps kosher, along with the sumptuous sea bass that I ordered, made the meal one to remember. ”
“ We dined for Valentine's Day and it was a meal full of love! We loved everything about our experience - from the restaurant's ambiance to the staff to the cocktails to the menu to the dishes. Every part of our dinner was superb! It's our new favorite restaurant in Houston (well it's actually in Bellaire). It is a bit pricy (entrees range from $30 - $54) but we are happy to spend a little more for such a wonderful dining experience! ”
