Everything was outstanding including the service, the ambience, the attention to detail, and especially the food. Four different meals including appetizers, drinks, main dish, and dessert - all were excellent.

Totally awesome date night experience. The happy hour in the lounge seemed to be where all the action was. We will check that out next time. Drinks and service were outstanding. Apps were good. Steak and risotto could have been a little better but overall awesome experience.

We had a fabulous meal, loved all the options and the margaritas were amazing. The only issue was parking, but we found a lot close by.

The food was excellent, unfortunately we didn't have the best luck with service. Cocktail recommendations were the over-the-top priced selections, and the food was served in a very inconsistent manner. Dinner course was extremely late, and we were offered a dessert for the inconvenience which after all the food was a bit much. Now on the plus side, the wedge salad was really tasty and an interesting twist to the dressing which we all loved, the steaks were good, the shrimp pasta dish was fantastic, the sides were generous portions and fresh. The meal was very good, once it finally came. So I rate the service not the food, and we probably had an off night waitperson, so take that with a grain of salt. I would recommend and a close walk to the Hilton and convention center if you are in town for an event. A classic steak house with out the Texas dead animals hanging off the walls (which is fine, but this was a classier atmosphere). The bar area also looks great and would go back just to hang there!

This is a favorite for me to bring clients for lunch. Having dinner here was a first. Everyone was wonderful. Met Tony the Manager who personally brought bread to the table when he noticed we didn't have any. Cocktails were spot on. Even the table busser was all smiles and attentive to the whole room. I highly recommend for business lunches and dinners.

1st time dining, I had the wagyu lasagna which was prepared in florets and the taste was out of this world. I’ve honestly never had a better lasagna anywhere in Houston. My partner had the 8pm filet and garlic mashed potatoes prepared to perfection. We will definitely be dining here again. Tony and the staff were amazing as well making sure everything was perfect!

Food was overpriced, service was spotty, they pushed their house Wine on us which was overpriced and not very good, and the Wagyu beef was very tough and hard to eat and cut
