Best food near me in Hitchcock, TX

For our anniversary this year, I wanted to do something special for my wife. Traditionally, we love to celebrate with a nice dinner at our favorite restaurant, but as luck would have it, most of the places we frequent were closed on Mondays. After some searching, I stumbled upon a cozy spot called 1817. It wasn't familiar to us, but with a few glowing reviews and enticing photos, we decided to give it a try. As we walked through the door, I was immediately taken by the warm, inviting atmosphere. Soft lighting, tastefully decorated walls, and the gentle hum of conversation created an intimate setting. My wife smiled, clearly intrigued, and I felt a wave of relief wash over me that I had chosen the right place. We were greeted by a friendly hostess who led us to a beautifully set table near a window. The menu boasted a variety of dishes, each sounding more delicious than the last. After a bit of deliberation, we ordered a mix of appetizers and entrees, eager to experience everything this hidden gem had to offer. When the food arrived, it was nothing short of spectacular. Each plate was a work of art, bursting with flavors that danced on our tongues. My wife raved about the lamb chops she had ordered, and I couldn’t get enough of the rich, savory stuffed flounder. We shared bites, savoring not just the food but the moment itself—celebrating our love and the joy of sharing a great meal together. The service was impeccable, our server attentive without being intrusive. They had the perfect balance of professionalism and warmth, making us feel truly cared for throughout the evening. It felt like a celebration not just of our anniversary but of the simple pleasures in life. As the night wrapped up, we couldn’t resist dessert. I opted for the maple pecan bread pudding, warm and decadent, topped with a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream. While mango crème brulee both were amazing what a finale to a lovely evening.

We had been here before and it was wonderful. Our second experience was also very good. The charro bean soup was amazing. Raw oysters were delicious. Seafood platter and catfish were delicious. The service was excellent. A great selection for anyone.

We enjoy Number 13 for special occasions or dinner with friends. Our server, Christy, was fantastic. We have never been served food we didn’t like.

Awesome place! Food and atmosphere were great. Will be back

Brunch was wonderful. Most of had the Eggs Benedict which was seasoned well. Espresso martini was unique with a coffee run and iris cream. The atmosphere was upscale but comfortable.
