   I love the food here. I always get goat cheese salad without the goat cheese. It is large enough to share. I get a taco on the side. I had a cappuccino today after the meal. It was all delicious. Pricey, but you can't get this type of food anywhere else in Houston that I am aware of. I have never had a bad meal here. The new space is beautiful, but the music is a bit loud for me. When we arrived today, it was freezing inside, but the heat was turned on after we asked. The service was professional and helpful. Valet parking is mandatory.

   We had a reservation at 7 but didn't get seated until close to 8 so not sure if it's even worth using OpenTable

   Valet parking was a nightmare. It took over 45 minutes to get our vehicle. I was disturbed to find out that my vehicle was placed so far away from the restaurant that it took the valet more than 10 minutes to walk there. The valet needs to be more transparent about where they are putting your vehicle. The dining experience was amazing as always but I am not sure that I would return for the dinner time frame given the chaos.

   Always amazing food! Chef Bruce himself comes out to check on guests every time I've been there. My absolute favorite thing is all the gluten free options which are all fabulous!

   You have to ballet your car. You don’t have a choice even though the lot may be empty.

   Truly love this place. Second time here. Food is outstanding. Had the Angry Shrimp appetizer and the Short Rib Biryani entree. Friend had the chicken Marsala and said it was truly tasty and unique. Love that it’s paleo! Will return. Even with a 26-person group in front of me, the noise level was low and could enjoy my time there. Intimate ambiance. Good for date night or groups.

   Food and service were fine. I have been dining here over the years and I do hate to say that the food and service are not as good as they used to be.

   A couple of my favorites are the lamb, and the stuffed chicken (either one).

    Shrimp pizza - so delicious! Fish and chips (sweet potato fries) - the fish was extremely tasty
