This locally owned restaurant has been proudly serving Sugar Land for over 18 years and has a menu that stays true to its Texan roots. The food and atmosphere is perfect for families with little kids offering yummy entrees like Chicken Fried Steak and Grilled Pork Chops and an outdoor playing area with swings, see-saws, and slides!

Begin your country experience with their starters like their wings or cheese fries or go for a healthier option like the Grilled Salmon salad. A popular dish among customers is the Pecan Crusted Chicken salad with cilantro ranch dressing. The heat of the crunchy breadcrumb crust rubbed in cumin spice will balance perfectly with the light and creamy dressing. Add some white gravy and you’re in heaven!

Move on to the next sections of their menu which include Sandwiches, Burgers, Sea Food, Specialties, and Kid's Meals along with sides like sweet potato fries, mashed potatoes, and mac n’ cheese. What makes Live Oak & Grill even better is that most entrees are super priced for under $15!

Kids under 12 can pick from the kids' menu featuring entrees that include fries, a drink, and a choice of yogurt, apple sauce, or fruit cup. All entrees on the kids' menu are priced at $6.99 and include items like:

  • Beef Sliders
  • Chicken Tenders
  • Mac n Weenies and more!
