Eddie V's - City CenterBetter experiences to be hadTwo main concerns with our last visit. We were told our steaks would be "marbled" but what we got was "grisled". The steak was barely edible. Also, the prices we were quoted on alcohol were WAY off. If you tell a customer a glass of wine is $9, you charge them $9, not $12!
I hate to discourage customers from this restaurant based on this experience alone. Usually the service and the food are amazing. This just wasn't what we've come to expect from Eddie V's.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat ExperienceI ate at Eddie V's for the first time and truly enjoyed my dining experience. Our waiter, Brandon was outstanding. I took my mother for Mother's Day and she had a great time. We loved it.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMI have been to Eddie V's severalI have been to Eddie V's several times and the food and service is always OUTSTANDING!!! I have recommended the restuarant to several people. I'm sure I will be back in the near future.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMOutstanding!My family and I made reservations here for mother's day. We will definitely be coming back for more family occations. The food was fantastic and the staff was very knowledgable about the whole menu. Everyone was friendly and I especially love when a manager makes a visit to the table. It was a very nice restaurant and we will be back.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMCelebrated my husband's promotionCelebrated my husband's promotion @ Eddie V's. It was wonderful. Great food, cocktails, and wine selection. The staff went above and beyond to congratulate my husband. Would def. return!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent food and entertainmentOur group of five ate at Eddie V's Friday night, May 10, 2013. Very professional staff, superb food. The round table benches were strange in that ithey were bifurcated by openings for the server, making it a little difficult to converse across to the other bench. We adjourned to the lounge for after dinner drinks, dessert and entertainment and were delighted with all three (we had chocolate mousse cake and creme brulees -- YUMMMM, and the jazz trio was really, really good). All in all, we highly recommend Eddie V's for a great evening of dining, conversing and entertainment.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent food as always.Excellent food as always. Seafood tower, steaks, lobster tacos were all great. Wine list is extensive. Service this time was a bit slow. Seemed like the wait staff was preoccupied with other diners. It was less attentive than usual.
Overall very much worth going.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMBirthday DinnerI took my husband to Eddie V's at CITYCENTER for his birthday. I noted on the reservation through OpenTable that it was my husband's birthday. Once seated, the server - I believe his name was Darren - greeted us and wished my husband a happy birthday. The General Manager then came by, introduced himself and wished my husband a happy birthday as well. Food was fantastic! Service was absolutely outstanding! We will be back many times in the future.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMBest Kept SecretI work at a large Hospital and I have told anyone whowilllisten about my wonderful experience at Eddie V's.
I celebrated my mom's birthday at Eddie V's in April and my 11 yr. wedding anniversary thispast weekend.
I am from Chicago, so I know a thing or two about fine dining at Eddie V's is it.
I am a walking poster child for Eddie V's.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways a winnerHad a great experience at Eddie V's this week. The food, wine and service was very good. My only issue is that the waiter kept pushing his favorite wine on us rather than easily accepting the wine we were looking for.
The halibut was exceptional as were the appetizer oysters.5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat TableRequested quiet table for business dinner and probably got the best table in the house. Oysters from East Coast were excellent and steaks all cooked perfect.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMBusiness DinnerA little loud and crowded to do business, but a great spot for treating clients. Hector and other wait staff were excellent; attentive but not hovering.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMReally enjoyed the eveningReally enjoyed the evening and will certainly be back.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Birthday dinner!We had a great birthday dinner at Eddie v's. food was great as usual, service impeccable. We shared the Calamari, the Beefsteak tomato salad, Grouper and the Bananas Foster. Accidentally ate a red pepper in the Calamari - yikes and watch out! Bananas Foster - oh my! Eddie V's will continue to be on our special list, even in the competitive Houston market. It also has the advantage of being in a good location for us!4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMFabulous dining experience,Fabulous dining experience, wonderful food, exemplary service and perfect atmosphere.4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat place to dine!We had a wonderful 33rd Anniversary at Eddie V's-City Center. The food was delicious & the staff was friendly and attentive. We would recommend it to our friends & will definitely return.4/21/2013 12:00:00 AMOur server Lauren was so knowledgabOur server Lauren was so knowledgable about the food the menu and extremely attentive. I think our only criticism is people are constantly coming and asking if everything is OK and it can be quite irritating when you are in midstream conversation. Personally, once the food has come and after the initial visit to see if it is OK I think that would be sufficient. There are plenty of waiter staff around if one needs anything at all you can catch their attention. But it truly is a wonderful atmosphere and everyone is so happy and helpful.RegardsJoy and Keith Godding4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat place, amazing food,Great place, amazing food, top notch staff.

All were excellent...sashimi, tuna tartare, heirloom tomatoes, crab-fried rice and the redfish.
The "very good" on service is only because our waiter disappeared after delivering the check and we didn't get to thank him!4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMWhen I found out that my momWhen I found out that my mom was visiting from Chicago to celebrate her birthday, I knew I had to take her to Eddie V's. She was very impressed with the whole dinner experience. I plan on returning soon with my husband to celebrate our 11 year wedding anniversary.

We came out for our anniversary and everything was just perfect, they decorated the table just for us and all knew us by name and our occasion. The Truffled Macaroni and Cheese is to die for. We will be visiting again soon!4/8/2013 12:00:00 AMThe service was outstanding.The service was outstanding. Walter took care of us and his recommendations were perfect for the ocassion. We were celebrating our 8th sedding anniversary and the dessert was on the house. The chocolate lava cake was awesome!!! I did not gove 5 stars to the food because se asked to jold the garlic on the Florida Grouper. We were told rhe garlic was only on the flour used for pan-searing. However, we found a lot of garlic thin sliced in the sauce as long as a lot of butter (not indicated in the menu).4/2/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food is outstanding andThe food is outstanding and the service is equally outstanding.

He made our 5 year anniversary dinner very special.3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMThe wait staff was very friendlyThe wait staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was excellent quality and overall well prepared. One person in our party felt his steak was a little over cooked, but he ate it. They have a very good wine list, but I am not sure that they are well versed in their ability to make recommendations or give critiques on specific wines.
Overall, we would return.3/27/2013 12:00:00 AMExceptional serviceWe had a wonderful evening and meal. The service was spectacular! I had to send my fish dish back because it was overdone, but the waiter and manager took it back and brought me something else with nothing but apologies. Second fish dish excellent. Have to try banana foster cake (and I don't even like bananas foster). Thanks for a great evening.

Was pretty dark in there though and the waiter would give you flashlights to see the menus. Other than that the experience was outstanding.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMEddie V's City Centre hasEddie V's City Centre has fantastic food & service.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMNoise was low because we dinedNoise was low because we dined early. Food was excellent.3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMSimply put, you get what youSimply put, you get what you pay for at this restaurant. As a great upscale restaurant you would expect the price range to be high. A full dinner with a three course meal will cost you in the neighborhood of $120 dollars and up not including tips for a party of two. The ambiance is great and quality and quantity of the food is top notch.3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMWe enjoyed our anniversaryWe enjoyed our anniversary dinner due impeccable staff and management.
