Restaurants near The Ensemble Theatre

Service was top notch with tentative hostess and waitress. Seated upon arrival per reservations made. The menu is exquisite making difficult to decide. With the server’s recommendations we were very please with our selections made. Everything was cooked to perfection, we had the Salmon and Redfish dishes, shrimp appetizers and calamari. I also have a new favorite drink the “Pear Martini”

Always stellar. The server treated us with two pieces lump crab roll since our favorite foie gras is —understandably—no longer available.

This is one of Houston’s best restaurants. Very good steak and arguably even better pastas. The Rigatoni in Vodka sauce is better than Carbone’s and their Lobster fra diavolo is stunningly good. Their Italian favorites like Veal Parm and Veal Milanese are also remarkable. The atmosphere and live piano music is the frosting on the cake. It’s a updated version Gene and Georgetti (Chicago).

Our dinner at Drake’s was just what we needed for a date night and a special time together for my boyfriends birthday. I appreciate the grace as we were running late and the team was accommodating and kind, even though we were behind schedule and closing was at 10p. Thank you for the hospitality. A little bit of kindness goes very long way.
