Food was incredible, everything was amazing. Crispy Shrimp deviled eggs were soooo good. Steaks were perfect - tender, flavorful, cooked to perfection. Only thing that wasnt 5 star - service was good - but no exceptional. Waiter spoke so fast it was difficult to understand him. Lacked that personal touch...

Johnathan is an outstanding server. I requested a hot toddy and he made it happen. The octopus is always my favorite. French onion soup was so delicious. Expect a giant burger no matter which one you order. I went for lunch with a friend, we had a great time. Valet service is available. The atmosphere is top notch with the service and flavors to match. The hostess was friendly and welcoming. I love this restaurant lunch or dinner.

My wife and I had dinner with my son and his girlfriend tonight. Everything was delicious from the two appetizers to all four of our entrées finishing with two desserts. The server was very polite, sweet, nice and she was training a new server and she was also very polite. They were both knowledgeable and helpful. Our starters were the octopus and the taquitos and they were excellent for entrées we had tacos Al Pastore, the tenderloin, a salad and the skirt steak every single one of us uttered the words “This may be the best” of what we were eating we had ever eaten. An excellent dining experience truly. The setting has always been lovely.

This place was overall a great place to dine in at. This is a great spot to enjoy good food, excellent drinks and nice ambience. As an individual who is not a huge wine drinker, the server was amazing at talking about the different wines and help pick an excellent wine! Will definitely return on my next trip to Houston.
