    6 of us for lunch. Server Verboon (spelling?) was excellent. Food was excellent. Deviled eggs, crab beignets, hamburger, onion soup. If the prices were a little lower, you could do much more lunch business.

    The food and the service were both great. The atmosphere was fun and energetic, but not too loud. The menu has a great variety of food types. Everything on the menu looked great-I had a hard time picking out what i wanted to order. We will definitely be back to try something new next time.

    Musaafer is a unique experience...exquisite food; beautiful furnishings; attentive service. sections of the restaurant convey an old-school men's club vibe. other sections offer dining within curtained privacy. one doesn't dine at Musaafer if cost is a consideration. this restaurant is a cut way above any Indian food venue in Houston and is well worth the price. I appreciated being told that an automatic 20% gratuity is added to every bill. Staff is quite pleased with the newly awarded Michelin Star. well deserved!

    Experiencing the 12-course meal at MAD was extraordinary. From the moment we were seated, the service was impeccable, with each course presented cleanly and described with expertise and passion. The staff was attentive, anticipating every need while allowing us to fully savor each dish. Each course offered a balance of flavors, crafted with precision, and presented as true culinary art. The progression from one dish to the next felt seamless, each course adding depth to the overall experience. The pacing was impeccable, giving us ample time to appreciate each creation without feeling rushed and enjoy conversation. MAD delivered a dining experience that was not only a feast for the senses but also a showcase of exceptional service. While we were unable to get a reservation at BCN taste tonight (because they were closed celebrating their Michelin star). MAD was more like an upstart younger sibling rivaling to overtake the former rather than a second choice. MAD provided a meal that left a lasting impression—an elegant, immersive journey that defines fine dining at its best.
