Had dinner here for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. The service and the food was exceptional. Kristine did a wonderful job explaining the menu and suggested great options and really impressed us. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was great, had a good vibe and we could still watch the Astros play without sitting in the bar area. This has landed on our top favorite restaurants to go too so we will be back soon!

We went for Houston Restaurant Week and it couldn't have gone better! Great date atmosphere and the staff (waiter and som) were awesome. Food was excellent and the ambiance will have me coming back here again. Highly recommend!

The food was delicious and elegantly presented. The ambience is absolutely beautiful. There is attention to every detail. The chairs are elegant and very comfortable. Service was the best we've had in Houston. The hostess, manager and waiters were attentive and made you feel welcome. It was an outstanding experience!
