http://www.thebigeasyblues.com Along with places like Etta's Lounge and The Silver Slipper, The Big Easy keeps Houston's blues and zydeco scene vibrant and fertile, bringing down-to-earth charm and solid soul to one of the city's toniest areas. The focus here is on local artists, living legends who routinely draw capacity crowds. The ghosts of blues past are haunt the club's walls in spirit and in portraits. The club's high volume level and physical intimacy - weekend nights here can redefine the word "packed" - offer patrons the chance to get up close and personal with the artists and each other alike. Plenty of stories are floating around about oldsters cutting the proverbial rug and dancing rings around the younger folks. The front patio offers an almost alarmingly close view of Kirby Drive, one of Houston's main surface-street arteries. More >>
http://www.houstontoyotacenter.com The colossal Toyota Center has become the salvation of superstar music acts such as Metallica, Foo Fighters and Lil' Wayne when they roll into town. When the Rockets and the Aeros are away, the playing surfaces are removed, adding 700 seats on the floor for a staggering grand total of 19,000 possible attendees. The red seats, comfortable even if you're very tall, give a clear shot of the stage no matter where you're sitting. Plus, if you're just too far away, two overhead screens reveal the action onstage. The sound is top-notch, though beware of the seats off to the side, which can experience echo from time to time. But no worries, since it's predominantly a sporting venue, you can rest assured that your next adult beverage is just a quick jaunt up or down the stairs from where you're seated at one of more than 30 bars. The drinks aren't cheap, so bring your mortgage papers. A loan officer is there to help. More >>

http://www.facebook.com/underthevolcanohouston Under The Volcano, a cozy, eccentric bar in Rice Village, takes its name from a macabre 1947 novel by Malcolm Lowry. It's a great club for most every occasion, be it a birthday, a first date, or the beginning of the longest night of your life. Don't miss the "steak night" special on Monday nights, when a 16-ounce USDA Choice rib-eye with tossed salad and mashed potatoes is a bargain, plus you may be able to spy a few Houston Texans players chowing down.

http://www.uprestaurant.com Up Restaurant, as the name suggests, serves upscale, seasonal food in a swanky Highland Village space. The offerings are refined versions of classic American fare, like steaks, seafood and gourmet pizza. A reasonable dress code is enforced, and there's live music on Thursdays. More >>
http://www.vicandanthonys.com Although owned by corporate giant Landry's, you'd be hard-pressed to tell inside this popular downtown steakhouse, where the ever-changing menu is headed up by Chef Carlos Rodriguez and his talented kitchen team. Vic & Anthony's is sumptuous and refined while still offering some surprises on its traditional, meat-and-seafood-heavy menu. The jumbo lump crab cakes are the best in town, without compare. And the house-cured meat platter includes smoky strips of lardo - a rare find - and tangy housemade pickles that make you wish for a jar to take home. Bonus: The sexy bar has a piano player in the evenings if you really want to impress a date. More >>
http://www.waltersdowntown.com Last February, Pam Robinson began the long trek of moving her club off the Washington strip and into downtown. What could have been the final nail in this beloved alternative venue's coffin has turned out to be the beginning of a new chapter. Over time, this would prove to be a smart move, as the clubs off the Washington strip continue to vacate the premises. Walters Houston, now located next to UH-Downtown, is still home to thrashers, metal-heads, scenesters and an array of subgenres. Among other things, the move has given Walters more space for parking, and the showroom is bigger, too. More >>
