There are great steakhouses, and then there's Brenner’s. I travel to Houston frequently for work, and surprisingly, this was my first time dining here. All I can say is: wow. What an experience!!!
From the perfectly cooked steak to the exceptional wine selection and inviting ambiance, everything exceeded expectations. But the true standout of the evening was our server, Amanda. If management is reading this, you have an absolute gem on your team. Amanda exemplifies what outstanding customer service should look like. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the entire menu, offered thoughtful recommendations, and made sure my coworkers and I enjoyed every bite.
And as if that wasn't enough, Brenner’s also offers a fantastic cigar selection that you can enjoy on their serene back patio—paired with your favorite bourbon (or Scotch if you’re into that kinda thing). I cannot wait to go back!

Top notch service, wonderful ambiance and terrific food! Not cheap but very much excellent all around. Great place for a date or business lunch. The Brandy Alexander ordered after dinner was AMAZING!! Kudos to the kind bartender!

We went to Brenner’s on a Monday evening for my wife’s birthday. I thought the restaurant on a Monday would be half full or less but it was very busy and it seemed every table was occupied. We had a really great server, Amanda, who we enjoyed talking with and who loves her job. I got the short ribs which were tender and had a delicious sauce and my wife got a filet. We got sides of broccolini and ribeye mac and cheese and finished with apple strudel with ice cream to go for a perfect birthday dinner!

George Wolf is an exceptional server. Food, service, ambiance , was excellent. He took time to talk with us personally. Don't go anywhere else.

Probably one of the most delicious steaks I’ve ever had — perfectly cooked, rich in flavor, and truly memorable. The sides were excellent, and the service was outstanding from start to finish. We had to sit outside, and it was a bit warm, but even that didn’t take away from the experience. Highly recommend — an amazing meal all around.

Excellent atmosphere and food was outstanding! Lamb lollipops for the win!
With all the trendy restaurants opening and closing we forget the old time favorites. This restaurant is amazing. I had the goat cheese appetizer and the crust on it is delicious. We also ordered the sea bass and the filet. The sea bass tasted like butter and the risotto it is served with was cooked to perfection. The steak was exquisite. Will continue to go back over and over.

I saw this place on TikTok and decided to give it a try with my family. We weren’t aware of how small the space was, but that was totally fine—it actually added to the charm. The food was amazing, and we had a wonderful dinner.
That said, we couldn’t help but notice something that felt a little off. We were the only Black people there, and while the manager made a point to walk by and speak to every white guest, he didn’t acknowledge us or say a word. It may have been unintentional, but it stood out and made us feel overlooked.
We hope this was just an oversight, and not reflective of how guests of color are typically treated here, because the food and atmosphere really are worth the visit.

Nothing to complain about here. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable about food allergies and ingredients. The steak was very good and magically cooked correctly all the way through, I'm not sure how they do that.
