Named after our daughter Grace, along with the idea that a steakhouse can be graceful, whimsical, and elegant without being dark and moody. What started as a vision to keep the vibe light and airy while letting the outside in, has turned into an Award-winning design of which we couldn't be prouder.
This menu is truly meant to offer something for everyone, with often found steakhouse features as well as a plethora of seafood to truly highlight the best of the gulf and beyond. Prime, Dry Aged and local Wagyu cuts of beef in 4 to 40 oz. portions are available to satisfy any sized appetite. Innovative cocktails and wines from around the world top it all off -making Guard and Grace the place to be for happy hour, a couple's night out or your private event.
Our family, or Ohana, is a passionate group of culinary obsessives who strive to make memories that will last a lifetime. Houston is a special city that has stolen our hearts, and from the bottom of them, we thank you for joining us.

    First visit here and service was impeccable. Food was amazing. They sat us next to the kitchen, which in my opinion was the worst table in the house however, they did not stop us from having a wonderful evening.

    By far one of the best experiences I've had in a long time at a restaurant. The food was amazing and my New York steak was to perfection. The ambience was beautiful and dimly little giving a very romantic setting. The service was amazing and we enjoyed our server Trey. They had a birthday card for my husband which I thought was super genuine as most restaurants don't do that. Surprisingly it was some pretty decent prices for the food to be so top tier. We will definitely be returning for another date night.

    We had our favorite meal, the seafood tower, and it didn’t disappoint. Drinks and food were exceptional and Travon provided us with great service. It’s nice to have a “go to” place to enjoy.

    Dinner was a wonderful experience! My wife and I celebrated Valentine’s Day with another married couple. The ambiance was modern and sophisticated, appealing to all the senses. Both the drinks and food were top-notch, and the complimentary cookies were a nice touch. The customer service was excellent from start to finish. If you’re looking for a new restaurant to try, this is the one!

    Guard and Grace is a beautiful place to spend on any special occasion. My husband and I went for Valentine’s Day and really enjoyed ourselves. Our server, Trey, had excellent table side manner and was very knowledgeable of the menu. We really appreciated him as our server and will request him again when we come back with friends and family. The only negative thing I have to say is we don’t feel that the steaks were worth the value for the price. I got the NY strip and it was very tough. Which, strip usually is always tough but I was expecting a more tender piece of meat with a little more flavor. My husband got the Ribeye and he also felt like the steak could have been prepared better. He asked for rare and it was a cool red center like Trey told us it would be, but he felt like it was a bit over cooked. He liked the flavor though. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves. I think it’s worth a try.

    Superb as usual! Amazing food. Everyone was talking about how good the food was. Waitress was a little pushy with the sides. We did not want 2 or each table orders because last time there was a lot left over.

    My wife and I were spending our 20th anniversary. The steak and meal was amazing. What made our night was Brittany. She was more than attentive and made certain we had an amazing night. She is definitely an asset to your restaurant. Thank you all for making our 20th anniversary a great night.
