Curate Reviews
This is a perfect example of the our expectations not meeting reality. When I looked at the website, I envisioned the restaurant to be less of a hotel, bar centric type restaurant and more of a quiet, food centric, more elegant type restaurant. The wait staff was very good (although they seemed understaffed). The wait times were reasonable. The food and drinks were very good. I should mention this particular Marriott is connected by overhead walkway (more or less) to the Houston...read full review
We came in on Monday afternoon just after opening and the restaurant was quiet. There was only one server, Andremise, and she was professional and friendly. Our broccolini was chewy and the cheese in my caprese panini, I think was not in balance with the size of the bread. Hubby had the tacos and they were ok. The price of the food was standard for the medical center. However the food was not so good that we would come back.
Nice bar and restaurant for hotel guests and others not wanting to travel outside the Medical Center area.

Curate, located on the 2nd floor of a hotel inside the Marriott Medical Center, offers a cozy atmosphere with a beautiful bar and fireplace. The restaurant serves a limited menu with dishes such as the grilled fish tacos, chicken and shrimp dishes, and key lime pie. The food has been praised for being good, with highlights including the salmon salad and chicken soup. The staff is kind and accommodating, and the servers are friendly and helpful, with the bartender receiving special mention for his outstanding service. Customers have enjoyed a solid variety of healthy meals complemented by a drink and wine list. The restaurant makes several cocktails at reasonable prices and is suitable for children and wheelchair users. Parking is available with valet service.
While the atmosphere and food are generally appreciated, there have been mentions of some inconsistency in the kitchen, including reports of onion soup being overloaded with bread and cheese and potato chips being overly salty when ordered to go. Curate is a late-night spot that provides a good environment for company happy hours and casual dining. Despite some concerns about pricing, it remains a convenient choice for hotel guests and visitors seeking a cozy place with decent food and drinks.
