Getting there

A word from Bistro Lancaster @The Lancaster Hotel

Local favorite Bistro Lancaster is ideal for a power breakfast, business lunch or social evening. Sophisticated and intimate, the Bistro allows for highly attentive personal service in a cozy setting. Feast on the sumptuous regional Contemporary American Bistro cuisine from our famous Crab Cake or… Grilled Lamb Meatballs with Tzatziki sauce to our signature warm croissant bread pudding accented with brandied cherries,fig confit and caramel sauce. Located in the heart of Houston's theater and financial district, it is an easy walk to all live performances downtown.Continued

"We arrived early and were seated right away. The food was very good and we enjoyed a nice bottle of wine. The service was outstanding. We were attending a performance in Jones Hall and had plenty of time to enjoy our meal. We would return to this restaurant."
