We are slightly disappointed with our recent Christmas Eve service thought, it felt a bit rushed. I’m sure they were just expecting a lot of reservations but it kind of took away from the sparkle. Aside from that every course is so, so good. We will of course go back just maybe at a less busy time. Can’t wait to try the wine pairings. YUM.

Excellent service by Steven who was very knowledge about wines and specials for the evening. He was attentive to all our needs but gave us space to enjoy our meal. Butternut squash raviolis were perfectly prepared with wonderful flavors. Tiramisu was divine!

It took a long time to get someone to take our drink order, and even longer to get the drinks. At some point we order a second glass of wine and 10 minutes later it had not arrived, so we flagged another waiter, who seem to be lost about what to do, until the original waiter arrived with the wine, apologizing profusely because he had forgotten about our request. The food was ok, not remarkable. Trying to pay the bill was another drama, as they informed me that the card had been refused, but as it so happened, they had input the wrong amount. I think that in every respect there are bettter restaurants in Houston, for the high price, and without the drama. We won’t be going back anytime soon.
