- AAtulVIPHouston •7 reviews5.0Dined todayThe food presentation and the flavor were excellent Most of the dishes are done on the wood fired grill. We were a group of four and had the focaccia, burrata and grilled octopus for appetizers and everything was excellent. They gave us the blistered bean salad on the house it is highly recommended for mains we had a pizza, pasta, red snapper and the NY Strip. The steak was amazing. The fish was a bit on the dry side.More infoRosie CannonballPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Montrose•4.8

- PPeggyVIPHouston •30 reviews4.0Dined 3 days agoThe beet salad was so yummy. They were willing to split it in the back for me and my husband. The crispy chicken is delicious and not too heavy of a dish. My husband had the burger and said it was great. Our friends split the cacio y Peppi pasta special served table side-yummy!! For dessert the table split the chocolate chip bread pudding- such a cute presentation! My only wish is they offered decaf espresso drinks to go with it.More infoGeorge's Bistro & BarPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• W. University / Med Center•4.5
