About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for business meals
  • Charming
Liberty Kitchen & Oysterette (LKRO) prides itself in it’s Oyster Bar. The multiple use seating at and around the Oysterette is inviting and friendly. The huge oyster, fresh seafood and whole fish display showcases seasonality and the vastness of the seafood offerings at LKRO. A traditional Japanese Robata Grill and a vertical 'Trompo' Grill are part of the Oysterette’s flexibility in a small space making the 'mini-kitchen' capable of producing freshly shucked oysters, grilled oysters, sushi, seafood towers and fresh carved tacos.

Moving into the main kitchen, the menu is just as wide and deep with a variety of local and regional seafood dishes and local Texas Beef. Our desire, as always, is to have a little something delicious for everyone and a menu for every palate as well as daily and weekly special features inspired by the bounty of available produce, meats and seafood in the Gulf Coast and beyond.

    For the 1st time, not an impressive experience. A 1:15 reservation (that I was asked to reconfirm 3 times,) turned into a 1:50 seating, a 2:05 glass of water, a 2:30 mimosa & having to wait to order food “because the kitchen was so backed up.” Easter brunch menu selected & the starters were good, the Egg Platter was unimpressive ( bacon soggy & toast hard,) & we had to take the rather small serving of carrot cake dessert to go at 3:50. Over booking was the order of the day, so we were certainly not alone in our waiting. Please, just say NO, if you’re fully booked.

    My family and I have been here many times and it is without a doubt one of the top five restaurants in Houston for food quality and service, the consistency of both is what keeps us coming back for a special meal or just for a night out. Thank you for always providing excellent food and service!

    Our server was way overworked - too many tables. She did her best but we felt abandoned periodically

    Houston staple. Had a great experience today, from the valet to the hostess to the server. Was excited to get the linguine pescatore but they've made some small changes to it. They added chorizo, total home run, got a bunch of it on my shirt because I was eating so fast.

    Service and food were excellent. This was my first time dining at this location and it was worth the drive. Recommend the fried shrimp and the shrimp/crab scampi.
