    I had lunch with my niece who had been doing a lot of traveling…Paris, London. I had not seen her since Christmas and this is a favorite restaurant for us to go to. I arrived a bit early and checked the menu and it was missing the famous Jonathon burger I had had in the past. I asked the server if it was still available and he said yes, so that’s what I had and it was absolutely as good or better than I remembered. After easily managing to devour the whole burger and fries, we sat and talked a bit more and my niece said she was still hungry so I said well why don’t we share a dessert Well, she got the chocolate cheesecake and I had a crème brûlée so much for sharing a dessert. Both were delicious. Great food, great ambience, great service. I can’t recommend highly enough!

    I’m happy to have chosen this establishment for Valentine’s Day dinner with my wife. Service was excellent without being overdone. The meals and drinks we selected were very well prepared and had wonderful flavors. The spirits selection was very good, and dessert was delicious! We asked to be moved to inside seating from outdoor and the ambiance was much more impressive and dinner-like. All the staff were very professional and showed great consideration for us as guests. I would strongly recommend this restaurant for an excellent experience at a reasonable cost. Will return here on our next visit to Houston! Thanks.
