    Mushroom risotto, bacon truffle Mac and cheese, truffle mashed potatoes, mixed veggies. All worth ordering and can't go wrong.

    My favorite restaurant in Houston. Great good abs best bourbon/whiskey selection. Turkey sliders are great and the meatloaf is killer. Can’t forget the amazing staff.

    The duck liver mousse was absolutely amazing. Definitely worth getting. Braised veal Benedict was also a great twist on normal brunch Benedicts. Stop by here for a not rushed brunch!

    Chilean sea bass $36. A must order! Super fresh tasting and just enough sauce without overpowering the dish.

    Order a bottle of Frank Family wine. Few restaurants carry it and it's one of the best from Napa

    If you're there for brunch, go for the bottomless mimosas and short ribs Benedict!

    Everything here is great from the different eggs Benedict to the Pot Pie. The Pot Pie had a great surprise with asparagus in it! Bravo!

    Seriously wonderful restaurant. The manager saved me when I dropped my iPad and drink. Welcomed me regardless and cleaned up my spill. The waitstaff was very attentive AND the food was FANTASTIC.

    Great food and the atmosphere has a "high class" feel to it. Not too pricey either.

    I am not a fan. I have been there 4 times (my friends dragged me there for the bottom less mimosas). The food is average, the service is AWFUL, the drinks are overpriced.
