Jessica B.Jessica B: I've never gone wrong in a Four Season's restaurant and Quattro was no exception. The cuisine had a modern Italian flare with sophisticated flavors that tempted my palette. No issues with freshness.

Jessica B.Jessica B: Another delectable spot here in Houston. The gnocchi was clearly fresh and homemade. The gnocchi was more Southern Italian, but still delicious. The dessert cart was a classic memory as well!

Jessica B.Jessica B: This is Houston's version of a hole-in-the-wall. The food was good; I was personally a bit dis-satisfied with the fact that their gnocchi is not homemade. Many of the dishes are zesty though.

Jessica B.Jessica B: They won't see me here again for anything but their delicious desserts. How can an Italian restaurant not serve gnocchi!? That's like a French restaurant not serving French onion soup! Great wine.
