Service was good, food was good. The only sad part was that they were interviewed people right next to my table. You can clearly see it is mainly based on appearance. So sad.

Very cool place! Service, food, and atmosphere were amazing. Definitely will stop in next time we’re in Scottsdale.

Houston’s offers a delightful culinary experience with their Hawaiian Ribeye and Salmon Appetizer, showcasing their commitment to fresh, flavorful dishes that cater to diverse palates. The Hawaiian Ribeye is a standout entrée, featuring a perfectly grilled, juicy cut of beef marinated in a tropical-inspired blend of pineapple juice, soy sauce, and subtle spices. The result is a tender, flavorful steak with a slight sweetness and smoky char that elevates the traditional ribeye. The quality of the meat is evident in its texture and richness, making it an indulgent choice for steak lovers.
Complementing the main course is Houston’s Salmon Appetizer, which exemplifies freshness and finesse. The salmon is expertly cured or lightly smoked, providing a delicate, melt-in-your-mouth texture. It’s typically served with a flavorful citrus or herb-based topping, enhancing its natural richness without overpowering it. The presentation is elegant, often accompanied by crisp accompaniments such as toasted baguette slices or fresh greens, allowing diners to savor each bite harmoniously.
Together, these dishes demonstrate Houston’s mastery of seafood and steak preparation, emphasizing quality ingredients and balanced seasoning. The Hawaiian Ribeye adds a touch of tropical flair to the menu, while the Salmon Appetizer offers a light, refreshing start to any meal. Overall, this combination delivers a memorable dining experience marked by bold flavors, impeccable execution, and a menu that appeals to both seafood enthusiasts and steak aficionados alike.

Knowing full well that they service people on the patio, the restaurant decided to not allow a service animal to dine with us on the patio to enjoy a sundae. Guess they haven’t had enough bad publicity as of late 🤷🏼♀️

What in the holy confusion? If I was the owner of this restaurant I would be horrified by the discussion I just had. Imagine being in-town for a short time and trying to dine here because you don't have the restaurant where you live and remember how great the food was/is. I called to place an order for pickup. I was directed to the website that has a very limited menu. When I called back and informed the woman that I wanted to order from the main menu, she told me they stop to go orders at 4pm- it was 415. I then shared that I was coming in, she explained they were only seating people who were going to have the full dining experience..huh? I know they weren't full at 4pm..imagine getting some extra revenue? I inquired whether or not diners can take the food they order and don't finish eating with them, she said yes. I explained that is what I was trying to do. She further explained that what I described is really "to go." I said we'll how long do I need to stay before I can ask for my food to be packed to go. She couldn't answer and just said, we don't seat people who only have the intention to take their food to go. So weird, but caused me to turn around. Not worth the judgment or hassle. Learned a long time ago not to make people take your money. I mean I am trying to spend money and eat your food..I guess this is a different kind of restaurant.

This place discriminated against me they are racist establishment. They would not give me service and they wanted me to just wait as other people came after me to receive service.

During our stay in Scottsdale, AZ we visited Houston's twice and thoroughly enjoyed our food, and drinks. The service was great and my husband says that their Hawaiian ribeye is the best anywhere, hands- down! I also had some incredible espresso from there!

Wow. Great staff, they went out of their way to catch us as we were leaving to tell us two seats had just opened up for us. Then the presentation of the food was gorgeous, and just when I thought it couldn't get any better, the food tasted amazing too! Excellent preparation, super fresh ingredients, expertly balanced flavors, very impressive. I also had possibly the best key lime pie of my life here. Highly recommend eating here, and I'm definitely coming back!
