Prey

The Acadian and Cajun restaurant Prey in the Galleria neighborhood is cool and so romantic—it’s the sort of place that inspires you to sit on the same side of the booth as your date. During the day there’s plenty of natural light, but at night the lamps give off just enough light for you to see your date and the spicy seafood gumbo when it hits your table. So stop in, canoodle over creamy crawfish fondue, and watch the sunset through the floor-to-ceiling windows. On weekends, if you don’t want the night to end, you can stay late for “Prey After Dark,'' where you can enjoy live jazz music and have a nightcap.
