Best Authentic Restaurants in Highland Village

We have been dining at The Grotto / Bistecca for probably close to 20 years. It is consistently good. Morris puts out a great product with a wonderful atmosphere and great service. Last night, Mitchell was our server and he did an excellent job. The entire service was timed beautifully which is a huge deal to me. We were celebrating our 25th Anniversary and wanted something close to home. Bistecca never disappoints. Our meal included 1/2 orders of Steak Salerno and the Tuna wonton appetizer, a wedge salad, Tenderloin (rare plus) and Sea bass with the Pecan twirl for desert. Everything was perfect.

Excellent little spot. Be sure to get a reservation to guarantee a table. We had the short rib, the scallops, and the kale salad. All was expertly prepared.

Nice Sunday evening meal of salads. The Cobb salad isn't a traditional Cobb and was good but the filet mignon added was very salty. The salmon Caesar was delicious and fresh. We are Landry's members so we eat here often and the first time we ordered salads. They would be a nice lunch option but not sure I would order them again.

The server was awesome and knowledgeable reg: the cocktails and food!

This place is wonderful. The food is amazing and service is top notch. Entertainment was awesome. Strongly recommend this place for dinner and a good concert.
