My brother and I ate here a couple of times during the labor day weekend 2013. The most memorable meal was grilled shrimp, with mussels for an appetizer. The shrimp were large and juicy, and served with lemon butter. When we ran short of lemon butter, the waitress brought us more. I am not a big fan of mussels, as they usually seem to be a plate of shells with tiny bits of meat in there somewhere. These mussels were grilled, with a slightly smoky flavor, and were fairly large. Very tasty. The wait staff were attentive, and t... read more

Stayed at the Hyatt Place and walked 100 yards to this Oyster Bar based on recommendation of my transfer driver. Sat down at the Oyster bar and was given great advice from the manager about their food. Grilled oysters is their house special. I had the grilled Oysters, steamed shrimp and chicken/sausage gumbo. The steamed shrimp was just good but the oysters and gumbo were the best I have ever eaten. Went back the next night and got the butterflied grilled shrimp in place of the steamed shrimp (and the grileld oysters and gum... read more

We ate here every night on business because well...we did some happy hour discussions and required a restaurant within walking distance. The food was delicious (Try the Boudin Balls). This place has some high dollar food but the service and value is phenomenal. Try It!

If you're looking for a New Orleans style grilled oyster then head to Jimmy G's. Sit at the bar, have an cold beer, and enjoy watching them grill oysters and boil crawfish. The oysters are shucked right in front of you so you know they are fresh. Don't forget to ask for the garlic bread to help soak up all the wonderful oyster liquid. The location is easier to get to now that road construction was completed on the service road in front of the restaurant.

I go here every time I travel to Houston. I have dined here well over 30 times in the last 8-10 years. This is by far the best Cajun sea food that I have ever experienced. The grilled oysters is one of their signature items. Large oysters grilled, doused with garlic oil and lemon then topped with grated parmesan cheese. I most always get Red Fish with Magnolia sauce. I have taken clients here for both lunch and dinner, never disappointed. Some of the employees have been there over 30 years, service is always great.

We went to this restaurant because it was within walking distance of our hotel, Hyatt Place, and we had to cross our fingers that the food would be good. It most certainly was ! Everyone in our group if six ordered something different and we were all pleased with our selections. And our server was just terrific ! (Wish I could remember her name) We'd definitely go back to Jimmy G's if we were in Houston again.
