    B&B never disappoints. The food, in my opinion, is the best in Houston. Chef Tommy’s Bacon is amazing and partly the reason we keep going back year after year. The service was great and attentive. Even with big parties during our dining, they keep making sure we had everything we needed. Very good place for intimate celebrations as well.

    Food is always outstanding, including service. This is the second time we were seated upstairs. For me, timing was off both times. We waited a long time to get both appetizers. Our waiter came by and questioned why we hadn't had our appetizers yet. They were soon delivered. Then our entrees were there as we were finishing the appetizers. Food wasn't as hot as it usually is, but flavors are outstanding. Going forward, I will insist on sitting on the 1st floor main dining. Things flow better, and we don't feel rushed. It's a place we frequent, and we love the ambiance.

    We set reservations for 445, weren't seated till 5, however due to being Valentine's Day I will not complain because they were crazy packed! The staff did an excellent job! The redfish was okay not great but okay. My daughter had the Perry filet and it was amazing! This location is pretty pricey but worth it. They do have valet parking which is great! The ambiance is very romantic. However since my daughter's birthday is on valentines day we expect it to be the norm when going out to dinner for her. I have it 4 stars because the redfish was not great.

    Uchi is our special occasion dinner or date night. We love the variety of options (plenty of vegetarian options) and service is always top notch. I like to come during happy hour so that I can order from both happy hour and dinner menu. Linda is my favorite server! She makes really great recommendations and we always have the best dining experience with Linda. Will see you again soon!
