Ouzo Bay is a gem in my book. The experience overall was great because you walk into a beautiful restaurant with great ambiance and the servers are friendly. The ambiance was great for a dinner and had music and great lighting. We had dinner here to celebrate a birthday, which was nice because they gave us complimentary glasses of champagne.
The food was excellent. For appetizers we ordered the trio hummus and spanakopita and both were delicious and tasted so homemade. Our entrees were excellent, from the presentation, temperature, portion size, and quality of food. I had the crab cakes and it is one of the best I have ever had. The drinks were really good and strong (which is a good thing) :).
The Manager also stopped by our table to check on our experience, which I thought was very courteous and professional. Overall, this is a great place to dine and I will be back! Thanks Ouza Bay team for a wonderful dining experience!
Very nice atmosphere. The lamb meatball was expected to be tinder and that’s what it gave. Same as the lamb shank I ordered. After ordering 3 glasses of mimosas, I gave up because I was basically drinking orange juice and cranberry juice. Overall, great experience and the staff was friendly.
Decor and atmosphere were nice. House music blasted from a dj playing on the Saturday night we dined in, which was not the most appetizing music to eat to. Bad music selection aside, the food and the service really shine here. The eggplant and zucchini chips were fried perfectly and paired well with the dill dip. The chicken orzo soup was very creamy and had a bit too much lemon, but was still good. Baked mussels were amazingly tasty. The highlight of our meal was the crab truffle mac and cheese. Hands down best mac and cheese i’ve ever ate - Super rich and the consistency was perfect. Great place for a dinner date or celebration.

My life has been so busy planning a wedding that this review is one month overdue. But let me begin by saying THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO for all your special events! 100%!
I celebrated my Engagement Brunch here at Ouzo Bay on July 31st, and when I say that the experience was absolutely extraordinary … it is an understatement!
From the moment I walked in the door, I was greeted with patience, kindness, and an overall willingness to accommodate my needs in a way that no one else gave me. From the hostess to upper management, everyone was professional, well trained, and wonderfully sweet. I went to other restaurants and no one was willing to work with me as sweetly and easily as here. The manager, Ryan, was my first point of contact and made everything so easy I was almost in disbelief.
The entire event went so beautifully, and that I know I can attest to the staff, so my sincerest thank you for all that you guys did for me. I never felt that I was rushed while spending time with all my friends and loved ones; they knew when to be present and when to be reserved. There is a delicate balance necessary for events like these, and they absolutely mastered it, with grace and elegance. Everyone was always well taken care of and assisted in a timely manner.
The food was divine, plated beautifully, and came out promptly for all 18 guests with no complications whatsoever. Our waiter was seraphic in his every manner of customer service, took such care in cutting my custom made cake as well as packaging it up for me. My sincerest thank you to you for that.
What else can I say besides 5 STARS 5 STARS 5 STARS?! If you are reading this review, and are in abeyance between here and another restaurant, please choose Ouzo Bay, they soar ABOVE expectations.

Fresh fish selections on the menu combined with the creative bar cocktails made for an exceptional experience. All the items we ordered were plated nicely and had authentic mediterranean flavor. My wife really enjoyed the Olympian Delight cocktail. Will definitely return.
Exceptional dining experience with fantastic service and attention to detail on every level with huge emphasis on selection & freshness. From appetizers to entrees and dessert, all were delicious & delivered an incredible experience including presentation. We had the Metaxa 7 Greek Hot Toddy & a Southside for drinks and loved them.
Wow impressive appetizers and drinks here. I didn’t have time for lunch but take a look at what I got.
I got the sampler trio of roasted peppers tzatziki and hummus. Very fresh and artisan quality. The pita was not standard bag pita but seemed slightly fluffier and slightly higher quality than standard bag pita.
The money here was the salmon ceviche. Ultra fresh and chilled salmon in a chilled bowl with a heavenly sauce with citric notes and pomegranate seeds was out of sight good.
The calamari were real deal with legs and everything not just a bunch of rubber rings. The batter was light and crisp with an Asian flair and properly seasoned.
The phanes poison was a most excellent drink. They went down very easy. Citrus and floral herbal notes.
Daniel ??? Was an excellent bartender.
Tell him Trey sent you!!
We fell in love with the Baltimore location. When we heard they were expanding to Houston, we were so excited and thankful they chose Houston. The food and service are top notch. Wonderful place for a romantic date, Anniversary, etc. We will be back!
This place was FIVE STARS all around!! Everything, I mean everything was FIVE STARS. Every dish was so fresh, perfectly seasoned and delicious! We ordered the turbot fish that was actually flown in from Spain, which was superbly prepared and served with a delish creamy lemony sauce with capers. Look at my pictures to see all the yumminess! The Executive Chef even checked in on us to see how we were enjoying our meals, what a personal touch!
Excellent service, all of whom were friendly, personable and very attentive.
The pretty décor adds to the ambience and overall experience. I can't say enough about how I enjoyed this whole experience! Ouzo Bay is now my number one favorite restaurant in Houston!
Lamb meat balls really damn good. Lamb shank was fall off the bones perfect. Sides were very tasty. Enjoyed a bottle of wine.
