    Food & service was exceptional; a shame we were seated between tables with small (screaming) children.

    Great ambiance, just fair food. The scallops and octopus was fantastic, but the steak was not very flavorful and the cook was not right for anyone at the table. Our waiter was not very friendly and appeared bothered to box our leftovers and bring the desserts. The folks filling water and clearing the table were great and energetic. The bar looked like a great place to have a drink, share an appetizer, and unwind a bit.

    Everything was wonderful. Filet, polenta, Brussels sprouts, and chilled shrimp appetizers were all absolutely delicious. Service was also excellent.

    We were sat next to a large table of drunk loud men. Who by the way were not appreciated by anyone in the dinning room. Steak a little dry. Very expensive. Won’t be returning

    Took my wife out for dinner. The service, food and wine, were excellent as usual. One of the best, if not the best steakhouses in Houston.
