- SSusanHouston •35 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoLeo's is just gorgeous the service is delightful and helpful the chef can be heavy handed with the salt in fact our table ordered scallops and sent them back as unedible (too salty) the kitchen hastily remade that order and they were beautiful these things happen the prices are VERY high so most likely this will be a special occasion place for most people at the time of our reservation the crowd was sparse (more folks arrived later) and whoever decides where to seat the guest decided to put us right next to a well lit and bustling waiter station----was NOT cool nor did that add to the ambiance for us not appreciated at allMore infoLeo's River OaksPrice: Very Expensive• American• River Oaks•4.6
- CCarrieHouston •127 reviews5.0Dined on 10 Dec 2024I’ve eaten here for lunch several times. It’s always delicious! It’s a wonderful menu, but I keep returning to some of the same things. The salmon salad, the salmon club, and the brie and pear panini. All delicious. A nice cocktail menu is a plus for celebrating.  I also love the quiet atmosphere, outdoor dining option, small size, and very easy parking.More infoGeorge's Bistro & BarPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• W. University / Med Center•4.7
- DDawnVIPHouston •124 reviews5.0Dined on 15 Nov 2024We really enjoyed our first time here. It was a little too loud for our tastes, we had a hard time talking to each other, but the food and service was amazing. We give a shout out to Ebony, who made the evening even more memorable with her bubbly personality. If we are ever in the neighborhood again we will definitely stop by.More infoTerrace 54 Bar + TablePrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• W. University / Med Center•4.6
