- RReneeVIPHouston •158 reviews5.0Dined on May 24, 2025I'd been wanting to try this place for a while and finally decided our anniversary was the perfect time. We were welcomed with a sign on the table and some colorful confetti. The food and service were both very good. I really enjoyed the bread service (you can't go wrong with super soft butter!), and they also brought us a complimentary slice of cheesecake at the end. Overall it was a very nice meal.More infoThe Palm Houston – DowntownPrice: Moderate• Steakhouse• Downtown•4.7
