Awesome food and great atmosphere! We've been going here for 10 years now and love it every time!

Hear what I say, this place is worth a try!!Solid food, great atmosphere, service was ok, but the vibe and the food truly made up for it. Stopped while heading out of town. Being a Castro pub Hearsay has a smaller menu. But when the food is good, why stretch the kitchen. We made it for brunch but opted for lunch menu. Started with a cup of gumbo (although it was a little too spicy for me it was excellent and I opted to suck it up and enjoy). The roux is a little thinner than I typically like but it was excellent. Rice came as an accomplishment on the side. Next was a grilled chicken sandwich and a cheeseburger add bacon. Both excellent. My husband was quite impressed with the burger, soft bun, not messy, greasy, but lots of flavor. Grilled chicken was good, served on a soft focaccia type bread, with the usual lettuce and toms. But the star of the show was the parm french fries. Fries had a hint of rosemary with the parm. Not too much where it's over bearing, but just right. Crisp on the outside soft on the inside. 2 waters to drink so I can't talk about their cocktails. Total with tip was around $55 but worth it.

Everything was delicious and we were very happy with both the food and service. Our cocktails and mocktails were really good and set the perfect mood for the rest of our evening.

Wow! This place completely exceeded my expectations. At first glance, it may seem like a typical pub, but once you step inside, you're greeted by its charming and picturesque ambiance. I ordered the Chicken Tuscan Pasta, which is something I typically avoid when dining out since I can usually make pasta at home, but this dish blew me away. It far surpassed my expectations and delighted my taste buds. I highly recommend it! The drinks were fantastic as well. I tried the Whitney cocktail, and it was the perfect balance of sweetness and alcohol - truly refreshing. Our waitress was incredibly kind and attentive. She took her time with us, ensuring we were well taken care of, and even helped us move tables when we realized the stool-top setup wasn't ideal for our meal. Overall, I would give this place a solid 5-star rating for its delicious food, excellent service, and welcoming atmosphere.

We originally headed downtown to visit a coffee shop but a wrong turn ended up with us walking into Hearsay. 10/10, this place is amazing. The historic building is so charming and their brunch menu had several delicious offerings. We also hit the jackpot with the Christmas music playing in the background making it feel like we were in our own little world. I chose the eggs Benedict and my wife order the avo-cucumber salad. The restaurant was an easy walk from the public parking lot across from the Brava. The service was also great.

Didn't realize I posted this review twice. I brought my mom back for HRW. We came to this particular location which is the only one I've explored, but I believe it's my favorite. I'm happy that she loved the historical perspective and the food. Hearsay been on my bookmark for a couple years. The food was better than expected! Which is always a pro! Service by manager Austin was very welcoming, I enjoyed the history of this historical building. Which is the second oldest building in Houston. Built in 1852. (Slavery times). Hearsay was originally a multi story hotel (3 floors). The top 2 floors caught fire previously and the building was rebuilt. The original brick is still being used and the original hardwood flooring for the top loft is wall decor. Afterwards it became the original Foleys store. Netflix also recently had some event hosted here where it part of a haunting series. Thanks Austin for the historic knowledge. Javier was a great waiter. With friendly and gentle service. The only flaw I encountered from this first time experience is, Hearsay was incapable of refilling my ice tea per my request BEFORE CLOSING, because of a team member prematurely discarded the remaining. As if it wasn't bad enough that they didn't have sweet tea available. Nor do they have hot tea available. They didn't bother to offer anything in its replacement. Way to end my first time experience. At least my dish of choice was good. I enjoyed Red fish

Visited this place for restaurants week. It's a hidden gem in downtime. There is a bar when you walkin to the right and the seating with booth options along the wall. I ordered calamari as my first dish, the snapper as my main course and bread pudding as my dessert. Everything was really good. The appetizer was kind of cold but tasted good none the less. The snapper was good and plated on top of brocollini. The service was kind of slow and our waitress was forgetful. We often had to flag some else down because we were waiting for her to come back. Any who I would try this place again maybe for brunch.

Restaurant weeks! Calamari starter was excellent, egg roll was insubstantial. blackened redfish excellent, creme brule world class. Service excellent, small historic building, tight seating. Good overall feel, but noisy. 5 stars for the food. I gave 4 stars to a clearly inferior restaurant yesterday.

Hearsay is one of my favorite places to eat. They have the best gumbo in the restaurant business. This location is one of my favorites. We were meeting a huge group of family and my uncle needs double knee surgery so I asked the manager if we could have the table down stairs. She took care of us, even though it was already taken. Thank you for that! Food: gumbo is top notch. Meatballs are great. Eggs rolls are good. So are he deviled eggs and buffalo shrimp. Everything is made fresh to order. We really enjoy the food here and will continue to try new things off their menu.
