Nice atmosphere, nice set-up. Loved some food items. My party had Salmon n slaw dish, crab hush puppies, empanadas and spinach n artichoke dip. I really enjoyed the temperature and flavor of these items, especially the dip.

I stopped my meal to make this review. Literally told my friend mid meal that I need to review this place. Come here. Get the half chicken and frites. Get the meat and cheese board appetizer. It is amazing. You won’t be disappointed, just a nice place to eat straight up and great food!

Good ambiance, spacious restaurant. Server was very attentive and got everything in our order right. Clean space. My friends shared their food tasted really good. I can speak only for what I ate the chicken parmesan meatballs.Their taste was good just a tiny bit dry. I assume because of the cheese. Not too many vegan options. Street parking or garage about a block down. Overall good experience. Will definitely consider going back again.

Has the green chili grilled cheese sandwich with the green chili sauce on the side. It was amazing and it was said that it was the best grilled cheese ever! We also had the rib eye sandwich again amazing! We spent a great deal of time discussing food with David and expressed how delicious it truly was. Mimosas were only a bunch each. Had Woodford Reserve whiskey on the side. This truly was the highlight of the weekend. hats off to the chef and to the Manager David. Needless to say, we will be back! 11:45 Saturday morning 7/29

Good customer service. I went for Houston Restaurant Week to try the Kung Pao wraps but they were out. While disappointing, the other options ( hush puppies) was still tasty. The drinks was good & the dessert, amazing. We arrive early so plaza parking wasn’t bad but upon leaving I can see how it can be a hassle. Due to the other business in the area it can be a quick fill up.

The best happy hour in Houston hands down. $3 bites, beers and drinks at 3pm. $4 bites, beers and drinks at 4pm. $5 bites…you get the picture. Happy hour from 3-6 all week. Plus it’s in City Centere. Get your day sip and shop on.

The place was empty on a Saturday night, which I thought was interesting. Not one person at the bar. We ordered the giant pretzel and it is huge. We really liked it and both the mustard and the cheese to dip were tasty. I got the pork belly banh mi. It was a little disappointing as the pork was a bit overcooked but the slaw and fresh jalapeños were tasty. I got the bacon jam crispy Brussels sprouts and they were delicious. Hubs ordered a sandwich and ended up taking it apart and eating the chicken. Service was pleasant and efficient. We enjoyed looking at the wall decor but again, it was a bit dull with very few other patrons.

When Happy Hour is REALLY a Happy Hour! This has got to be one of the best happy hours in Houston! I brought my friends to try them out and we had a great time here! Our bartender Allyson was such a doll! She took good care of us. David, the manager, also checked in to make sure we were having a good time. I’d absolutely come back and bring more people

My waitress and the guy she was training(Mike, it was his first day) were excellent. It was one of the best waitresses I’ve ever had. As far as the food and menu goes, there are very few options and my partner had the steak tenderloin I believe and whatever sauce in come in was horrible. And we aren’t picky eater at all. Basically they have more options for appetizers than actual meals. The drink menu was pretty good and decent prices but I’d like more food options on the menu and they should come with a side. The serving was really small and was filling at all. My waitress and waiter is the only reason I’m giving 3 stars bc I would give 2
