I really wanted to like this place. The waiter was old and didn’t care. Ordering a glass of wine was difficult, getting a side of horseradish was impossible. Food was OK. Kinda old style meat & potatoes place, no frills for sure. The sweat potato was AMAZING, the Fresh Fish was OK, but way too much sauce. The Prime Rib was pretty good and cooked as ordered. Chianti was good, Chardonnay was not. Would I go back? Probably not

Talk about overpriced. Wow. A thin little "prime rib(?)" for $40. It was so thin and falling apart. I can't believe they charge that much. Good thing I used a gift card. The sides are meh and cost way too much. Ambience adds nothing.

When I saw prime rib was served here, decided to give it a try. Absolutely delicious!! I would like to say I'd make it a weekly stop, however that might be a tad on the expensive side. Save your $$, and take someone for a wonderful dining experience

The food was super delicious, the drinks taste like chlorine, the waiter was super curt and not very attentive, we had to look for the service of another waitress, who served us better

Overall a really nice dining experience. We had never been there and our server Kevin was fabulous in explaining the history of the restaurant and menu. The variety is crazy!! Everything was cooked really nicely with good flavors. We will for sure be back.

I loved the restaurant and the service. I ordered the fish and chips, horrible, five breaded pockets of grease. I’m ashamed that I spent $25 for a something not even edible, the fries were good. Meal made me ill.

Best kept secret in Houston! Service is always top notch. Food is off the charts. It’s me and my bfs go to when we want a nice good delicious dinner. Portions are great for the price. We happened to go for steak night got a round a drinks apps and two steaks for $150. (more than we usually spend there) But everything is sooo delicious & there is truly something for everyone on the menu. The TVs are a nice touch also.
This is one of my favorite restaurants... It's one of the nicest casual restaurants in Houston... Not only is it comfortable with amazingly good food... The variety continues to dazzle... I highly recommend it as an easy go to place

The prime rib and baked potatoes were excellent. Broad menu that covers many food types and should satisfy nearly every taste. The decor is a throwback to the early restaurants that populate Washington Ave.

I had a lovely dining experience on Thursday, August 22, 2024. I was warmly greeted at the hostess stand and then my server Kevin took my experience to a whole other level. He was so personable and fun to interact with during my solo dinner. He had great food suggestions and gave me the same attention as a solo diner that he gave his other guest. I asked to speak to a manager when my meal was complete. Edgar came over and he was also super personable as I gave him my rave review of my experience and told him they are now tied with their sister restaurant El Tiempo as my favorites. The food was soooo good! The crab fingers had a nice flavor and kick. The crab cakes were very meaty and filling. The chipotle chicken pizza makes me not want to order a chicken pizza from anyone else again. If you are reading this review and debating if you should try Laurenzo’s do yourself a favor and go NOW! You will not be disappointed.
