   I love this restaurant. Before my wife died, this was her favorite restaurant as the staff was attentive, the atmosphere was delightful and of course the food is phenomenal. I took a date here last night and she loved the meal. This is a very special place for me now.

   The food was okay the wine was good but I felt they were rushing us to finish. My wife and I were only there for about an hour and half.

   Everything on the menu looks delicious. We enjoyed the outstanding gazpacho, the delicious romaine salad with manchego, the wonderful red snapper served with jumbo lump crab and haricots verts, and one of the steaks, and everything was absolutely fabulous. It's quiet and dark and very European in feel. We will go back!

   One of the best restaurants in Houston! The soft shells were gigantic and worthy of being designated as whales. The ambience and service are tops as well.

   Probably my favorite restaurant in Houston--certainly in the Top 5. The menu changes seasonally, but is always varied and delicious. The cocktails, in particular, are inventive and fantastic--this spring's gin and tonic special, for example. involves frozen tonic pearls (like boba) and a lemon ice. It's almost like a dessert in texture and presentation, but not sweet. The service is extraordinary--attentive but not cloying. The waiter we had last night was good-natured, made sensible suggestions and offered details about different dishes that were informative, and was attuned to when we needed attention and when we did not. The appetizers are always worthwhile, and I've never had a dish that wasn't well prepared, beautifully presented, and delicious here.
