The service was great as well as the atmosphere. We really enjoyed our lunch there and would definitely go back. The highlights were the Chicken Pesto Penne Pasta and the wings. Very attentive staff and everyone was very nice from the hostess to the waitress to the manager.

We walked over from our building which is a few blocks away, nice to get out and get some fresh air. We had reservations as we have learned Osso & Kristalla gets busy during lunch hours & anything going on at Minute Maid. It was not busy when we arrive, this was at about 12:30. I'm surprised and disappointed at the level of service from the bar area. It wasn't busy at all! There were only 3 other patrons in the area while we were there. Waiter was horrible! Not friendly at all and he made us feel rushed even though they were not busy at all. I usually consider myself an over tipper, however this day I was not feeling it at all with the service rendered! I will say here, I DID NOT TIP! Do better waiter!

Was underwhelmed with this experience. We reserved a high top table in the bar area. When we arrived for our reservation the only tables available were either a low table in a terrible location next to the food service area or to sit outside. We opted for outside. Food was mediocre, my food came out cold. This reservation was also for my birthday and there was no acknowledgment of this. I understand they were busy with huge parties from a nearby convention that night but it felt as if we were shucked to the side after making an advance reservation.

I love this restaurant it's always busy and fun people around just Nicely. The food is amazing and I especially love the pizza I get a pair and prosciutto pizza which is delicious and I get it with a califlower Crust the food is amazing.

Great location if you are looking for a nice reasonably priced place to eat near Minute Maid Park. The food was outstanding and our server recommended a dish that was a better overall value. Great service and atmosphere.

Met friends for brunch before ball game. We all enjoyed our selections- I had scrambled eggs, bacon (eggs were particularly good, which I know sounds weird, but they were perfect!) friends enjoyed the Branzino - said it was delicious. Service was great, location could not be better. A definite repeat! Well done!

We had a 6:00 reservation. We arrived on time and were sat immediately. It wasn't until 6:15 that I let another employee know that ourselves and the table next to us had not yet been greeted. We wanted to have a couple of drinks, an app and an entree but because of the wait in the beginning we couldn't order all what we wanted. Super disappointed.

Really a top-notch dining experience. It was Easter Sunday brunch and pregame for the Astros game a block away, so it was very crowded. But the service and food quality were entirely on point - excellent in every way.

We had a great time and our dinner was delicious, our only complaint is unfortunately the fire alarm was activated while we were enjoying our lovely dinner and drinks. Which prompted us to leave much sooner than expected.
