ProvisionsBest Restaurant in TownThis place is amazing, which such great menu items and creative dishes. Cocktail and wine program is one of the best on the city. A great lunch, dinner and bar place.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMSuch a lovely experienceI was beyond amazed with the service the food the ambience. I sat at the Chet's bar with an open view to the kitchen. Everyone was super friendly and the food was fantastic. I'm a pescatarian and I haven't eaten meat in over 7 years but the chef was so kind and professional and proud that when he offered me a complimentary dish of their speciality ham, I had to try it!! That says a bunch. I'll definitely be back with friends!!5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMAwesome food, great service,Awesome food, great service, perfect for a dinner date. Don't be scared to try the Yuzu Sherbet for dessert...phenomenal!5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways Great!No complaints after another fine evening here; well served by Ben, excellent supervision in the kitchen from Adam, Tete Croquettes are a delight, new hanger steak very good too!5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMGo early for lunchEnjoyable lunch. Food was great (always love the pasta with mushrooms in cream sauce). Service attentive, but as things got busy a little less so. It gets loud here as it fills up and the quarters are tight, so keep in mind that it is almost impossible to have any kind of a private conversation.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMVery creativeLoved it. A very creative menu. The Guanciale/Uni/Roasted Garlic/Arugula pizza was a knock out. The Halibut/Romesco/Asparagus/Smoked Dashi was even better! Definitely going back because I want to try so many more things from the menu!5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMAttentive to the art of food!Provisions hits the mark every time with unique food pairings, taste, textures and creative and artistic food preparation!
Wine pairings selected by the Sommeliers are recommended! They are truly talented...from the food to the wine pairings and
atmosphere. It is inviting and comfortable, yet it satisfies a foodies dream of "pushing the envelope" just enough to to meet dining perfection every time!5/2/2013 12:00:00 AMMy new favorite restaurantThis is my new favorite restaurant: mostly every dish we had was a hit. We noticed that many diners were ordering pizzas and wondered how they could be any better than what we had. That's a tall order since Houston now has many, many good restaurants to choose from these days. But Provisions wins hands-down on food, especially since reservations are so easy and it's so close to my home. We will be back very soon and hope it rates well on consistency too.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMTwice is niceI've now visited twice for lunch and, of course, fallen victim to ordering too much food. But it's impossible to resist the flavors. This is the only restaurant where I would consider eating two pizzas for lunch. The shrimp salad dances on your tongue, and the burrata makes me hope Provisions becomes a Houston institution, not a passing trend. This is a great restaurant with a well-trained, attentive, but not obsequious, staff.5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMMust Try, Must Repeat!Had a great time in the bar before dinner. Buratta pizza can't be beat! Must try, must repeat!4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMThe ambience is a substatnialThe ambience is a substatnial improvement over the Gravitas. The succint menu has several gems and what makes the place unique is the combination of flavors pairing food elements with side dishes. The ham of the day was exquisite and the dehydrated mustard enhanced its flavors. The pate de campagne was delicious, highlighted by the fresh bread, baked in house. Slices of hamachi were served mixed with a delightful vegetable mix. The sweetbread was undercooked and covered with breading which wwas largely unnecessary. The eclectic wine list covers all major varietals and wine producing areas of the world. The place's major drawback continues to be the high noise level. With the dining room full, you couldn't hear yourself think!4/24/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had the best time! GreatWe had the best time! Great bar/wine list. Super service. Inventive menu - everything was delicious. First time there and can't wait to go back.4/22/2013 12:00:00 AMHad an absolutely wonderfulHad an absolutely wonderful meal. Server was kind, enthusiastic about the food, and attentive - she told me at the end of the meal when we were discussing the food that she was very proud to work there. That's what I love to hear. The food was outstanding--I had the pretzel epi, ham 'o' the day, lettuce salad, mussels, and the yuzu sherbert dessert. Everything was worth writing home about, as they say - the dessert deserves special mention for nearly knocking me out of my seat. The cocktail I had was also really delicious - I ended up in the bar while they got my table ready, and even though the bar was packed they still made sure I had a place to sit and someone taking my drink order. All in all a complete success.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent service and veryExcellent service and very good food. My only complaint on this (our third) visit is that even with a reservation we had to wait 30 minutes. I don't think the restaurant should offer same evening Open Table searing options if they are behind in clearing tables they are offering.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMThe service was just as fantasticThe service was just as fantastic as the food! I can't wait to come back.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMreally great flavors,, a greatreally great flavors,, a great dining experience!! my 2nd time was even better than the first... love the salad with cumin vinaigrette,,, i'm still thinking of the bread with tomato jam & brioche,, the mussels are delicious & all the seafood dishes were yummo,,,especially the tuna with chorozio ,,, etc and and i can go on!4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMWe enjoyed Provisions veryWe enjoyed Provisions very much and were trying to impress our New Yorker daughter, which we did!4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMEverytime I am in town visitingEverytime I am in town visiting Houston from New York City, this is the one place I MUST visit as it is on par with some of the top restaurants in Manhattan.4/18/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food! Hip restaurant,Great food! Hip restaurant, feels like a 'scene.' Mostly smaller portions, tapas style. Recommend 4-6 dishes for 2 people.

This was my second time, first time was awful service so I returned when someone else was paying to give it another shot... much improved. I dont like the kale pizza, but the eggplant is great.4/11/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat service and inspiring menuHad a great dinner here the other evening, and thoroughly enjoyed the night. My friend was late to meet me due to traffic and the waitress was very accommodating to me, seating me and serving me a delicious cocktail (the improved Moscow mule). I also had the rosemary bread pairing which was delicious. The roasted artichoke and the cresta di gallo pasta were superb. The kale pizza was good but strong flavors so not my favorite of the evening. Carrot cake donut for dessert was fabulous. Overall, really enjoyed the meal and will definitely be back to try more on the menu. It is definitely one of those places where the whole menu sounds delicious!4/10/2013 12:00:00 AMWow! What a meal- and it wasWow! What a meal- and it was just lunch. Amazing , creative food. Very knowledgeable wait staff, and attentive without being intrusive.

HighlightsA real treat. Highlights included the oysters, the white onion soup, the ham, the hake. The desserts were also very creative. A good wine list to compliment the excellent food.3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMI chose the restaurant forI chose the restaurant for a first date location based on glowing reviews from friends and various restaurant review publications. I wasn't disappointed. The ambiance was modern, but not cold. We enjoyed each dish. Very delightful. Drinks were wonderful. Great selection from cocktails to wine. I believe the only complaint I have, and my date shares it with me, was that the vanilla tapenade was just too salty. I focused on it only because a friend who came in with a food critic months ago had mentioned it in particular as one of his must try items. Maybe not enough vanilla? Otherwise, I was impressed by our meal from food to service. I shall be returning.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMVery enjoyable lunch. WeVery enjoyable lunch. We weren't seated on the patio but with nice weather the french doors in the dining room were wide open and it was delightful. Service was attentive but not obtrusive. We split a salad and a pizza - both were delicious and it was still more than we could finish. We will definitely return.3/28/2013 12:00:00 AMThis has been my second timeThis has been my second time at Pass and Provisions and the staff is always very friendly and attentive. I would recommend this place to anybody for special occasions or just looking for a new place to have a nice meal. They have an extensive wine list that everyone can find something in their price range. The menu allows for conservative foodies as well as those who are looking more adventurous. I will be going back as soon as possible as the menu changes with the seasons.3/26/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had heard about ProvisionsWe had heard about Provisions and were anxious to try it. It did not disappoint. We had an enthusiastic, informative waitress and that helped us navigate the menu selections. We tried a lot of different items and each was better than the one before.3/25/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat mealAn amazing meal from start to finish. Fred Jones paired some great wines with our meal. The suckling pig was amazing.3/25/2013 12:00:00 AMWe ate lunch there and thoughtWe ate lunch there and thought the food was very good, although a little expensive for our normal lunch outing. Also, the desserts are all dairy-oriented, except one which was $17. Our waiter was knowledgeable and the staff was attentive.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful favors in a limitedWonderful favors in a limited menu. Don't miss the mushroom pasta dish and the cumin sparked salad.3/21/2013 12:00:00 AMI had heard really great thingsI had heard really great things so maybe my expectations were a little out of whack. The food all tasted good. The flavors were clean and simple. Nothing blew me away.3/9/2013 12:00:00 AMEven though we had a 5:45Even though we had a 5:45 sitting, the place had a good atmosphere, and we had a friendly and knowledgable waitress, Jacqueline. We opted for the house favorites of the Burrata pizza bianca, and the Crest of Hen pasta, followed by a sweet 'roasted grape' loaf. Knockout food! Simple, using authentic, matched ingredients. Two glasses of good quality Chianti Classico. Only downside was the cold draught on the right front of house seating. We will be back....though hoping for a different table!1/5/2013 12:00:00 AMProvisions is easily topsProvisions is easily tops in Houston when it comes to offering the most innovative and whimsical food that tastes great, with an intriguing and well priced wine list that pairs well with the food. The food and wine provide an instant cure for the jaded palate.1/1/0001 4:00:00 PM
